From a bird's eye point of view the Great Barrier Reef appears a labyrinth of blue and green embracing the tropical coast of Queensland. Stretching some 2,000km (1,240 miles) along the north eastern Australia coastline, the reef is comprised of approximately 2,900 individual coral reefs and covers an area greater than the size of the UK.

Beyond the continental shelf that harbors the Great Barrier Reef, lie the isolated reef systems and crystal clear waters of Australia's Coral Sea. The region covers over 1 million square kilometers - three times the size of the neighboring Great Barrier Reef. Here ancient mountains provide a undersea landscape of sheer walls rising from the oceans floor, where sharks and massive schools of pelagic fish emerge from the depths.

For photographers, in the forward lounge there is a camera work station with power-boards and converters for 110 Volt. On the dive deck there is a camera wash tub, small camera table and air gun.
