The Great Barrier Reef has been voted
the "#1 Dream Destination for Americans"
by Living Social.

Few natural wonders command such attention as the Great Barrier Reef, the world's largest coral reef system. Here, after all, is a spectacle so vast that it can be seen from the moon.

What makes the Reef so great is not just what's beneath the surface but also what's above it - the Islands of the Great Barrier Reef. On an island, you can truly experience one of the seven natural wonders of the world. From the exclusivity and luxury of five-star resorts to the back-to-nature simplicity of tented accommodation in natural settings, the reef's islands offer a retreat from the demands of everyday life.

 

The different islands along the vast stretch of reef are there to complement your ideal Great Barrier Reef experience: ecological, luxurious, natural, secluded. From these islands you can choose how you connect with the Reef. Dive into it, snorkel through it, sail on it, or fish it. Swim with turtles or watch whales play. Whichever island you choose, you'll have an experience that will live with you forever.
