Brief introduction of Lady Elliot Island on the Great Barrier Reef

I believe everyone knows the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. This is one of the seven wonders, and it can be said that it is a must-see place to go to Australia! Today, Bian Xiao is going to introduce the Great Barrier Reef and a famous island in the Great Barrier Reef-Lady Elliot Island, which is known as the star of the Great Barrier Reef.

Australia's Great Barrier Reef is located on the east coast of Australia, stretching for 2,300 kilometers, covering an area equivalent to that of Japan. This is the only ecosystem that can be observed on the moon. The Great Barrier Reef is known as one of the seven wonders of the world and one of Keynes's two world natural heritages (the other is the tropical rain forest). The Great Barrier Reef is a huge coral reef group with colorful and different shapes. The river is clear and transparent, from white to blue to indigo. It is also one of the top ten most popular diving sites in the world.

If the star of Lady Elliot Island on the Great Barrier Reef says that the Holy Spirit Islands in the middle are characterized by romantic dreams, and Keynes in the north is characterized by natural exploration, then Lady Elliot Island at the southernmost tip of the Great Barrier Reef is low-key and primitive. Although the fame of Lady Ilite Island is not as loud as that of the Holy Ghost Islands and Keynes, and luxury is not its main feature, nature is generous to it. Four seasons change, where you can enjoy the most primitive beauty of sunrise, sunset and ebb and flow. The sea is surrounded by coral reefs, the land nourishes vegetation, and the islands shelter lovely animals, which also gives people here a glimpse of the Great Barrier Reef!

Mrs. Illite is a holiday resort in itself. On the island, you can enjoy a comfortable and quiet atmosphere. You can bathe in the sun, swim on the endless beach, explore the mysterious and ancient island history and visit the scenery on the island. You can dive in the sea at any time as long as the tide and safety permit. For those who don't want to go into the water, beach volleyball, football, billiards and table tennis are provided on the island, while the Manta lounge provides DVDs, books and board games. Whether it's a day trip or staying for a few more days, I believe it will bring you a perfect experience.

Snorkeling/deep diving

As Lady Ilite Island has the largest living coral community and is one of the few islands where you can see living corals, it has become an excellent place for snorkeling and scuba diving in the world. These two activities are also the most important activities on the island. You can dive in the warm waters around the island at any time to explore this unpolluted primitive island.

The diving station on Lady Elliot Island provides complete snorkeling equipment (diving goggles, breathing tubes, frog shoes and diving suits, etc.). ). You can experience diving without a diving license, and the instructors on the island will seriously train the basic knowledge of diving and basic underwater skills.

Take a breathing tube to the surface of the sea and enjoy entering the underwater world. It was as quiet as if I could only hear my own breathing. There are more than 1500 different marine life on Lady Elliot Island, including green/red-headed turtles, hawksbill turtles, paradise whales, manta rays (devil fish), clown fish, giant clams and other naive animals. When diving, it's easy to see the lovely turtle looking at you. Fish and corals of different sizes and shapes dance on their own, just like the scene of an underwater garden, as if they had become mermaids. It's fascinating to think about it

Glass bottom ship

Lady Elliot Island offers a variety of glass-bottomed boat tours. All ships are equipped with jet engines to ensure that the environmental impact on coral reefs and their marine life is reduced.

Sailing on the clear sea by a glass-bottomed boat, with a glass interlayer at the bottom, people can directly see the wonders of the seabed through the bottom of the boat-colorful coral reefs, tropical fish of various shapes, jellyfish turtles and so on. People who don't want to go into the water can choose to board this ship to watch marine life.

In addition to day tours, Lady Elliot Island also offers night glass-bottomed boat tours. Using special ultraviolet rays, you can clearly see coral reefs and fish wandering at the bottom of the boat. When the Great Barrier Reef wakes up at night, the boundless sea surface and starry sky blend together, and you will feel as if you are in the space universe, experiencing this charming ecosystem and beautiful scenery completely different from that in the daytime. Only marine life that swims under the boat from time to time can remind you that you are above sea level at this time.

Strolling on the reef

Walking on the reef is a good way to explore the lagoon during tidal time. You can enter the lagoon from the beach, to the edge of the reef and get close to the marine environment. You will find countless marine life, including sea cucumbers, starfish, sea urchins, corals, clams, crabs and colorful fish of various shapes and sizes. Experienced tour guides will introduce you to the complexity of coral ecosystem and the various creatures you see or are interested in.
