As far as exotic holiday destinations are concerned
the Great Barrier Reefs in Australia has a definite lead over others. Known to
be the largest coral reef system in the world it comprises of 2,900 individual
reefs and 900 islands. This massive reef system is both a world heritage listed
place and CNN has labelled it as one of the seven natural wonders of the world.
What makes this place stand out is its stunning water park and the unique
beauty of the marine flora and fauna. Those who visit the place remain
awestruck by the vastness and the natural beauty of GBR and even though you
might have seen hundreds of images of the corals, reef fishes and other marine
life; nothing can be compared with the real experience which is absolutely
amazing. The Great Barrier Reef Vacation
also supports a huge variety of fishes, as many as 1500 species, sea snakes,
turtles and many other life forms which make it extremely important for the ecology
and environment and so whichever company you may choose; make sure that their
tour packages are totally eco friendly. Though the GBR is protected against any
kind of human abuse as a tourist one must take on the responsibility and take
measures to protect this beautiful place for the future generations to enjoy.
