Marine Life

Queensland’s marine life is simply captivating and the opportunity to interact with these amazing creatures is at your finger tips.

Scuba Diving and snorkelling are the most spectacular ways to see the reef. There’s just nothing like swimming through a school of iridescent fish or observing the beauty of a turtle glide by you 20 metres underwater.

For a non-swimmer or for those who just like to stay dry, there are pontoons or floating platforms in the ocean with underwater viewing areas, glass bottom boats and semi-submersibles.

Land-based underwater observatories offer a solid place to put your feet and the amazing opportunity to look up into the fascinating underwater world. Or for first-hand experience, visit a ‘touch pool’ within an aquarium.
