Huge obstacle

Reef), the largest and longest coral reef group in the world, is located in the southern hemisphere. It runs through the northeast coast of Australia, from the Torres Strait in the north to the tropic of Capricorn in the south, and stretches for * * * 20 1 1 km, with the widest point of 16 1 km. There are 2900 large and small coral reef islands here, and the natural landscape is very special. Yu 198 1 was listed in the World Natural Heritage List. In March, 20 17, scientists found that most coral reefs in the most primitive northern part of the Great Barrier Reef had been killed by overheated seawater in 20 16. Further south, the coral reefs in the middle of the Great Barrier Reef are fading, which is another potential omen of mass death.

Do I have to go to Cairns to visit the Great Barrier Reef? Great Barrier Reef = Green Island? But in fact, many people have misunderstood. From the map, the Great Barrier Reef is actually a huge sea area, covering many scattered islands and a vast wilderness. Keynes is just one of the gateways to Australia's Great Barrier Reef. You can also visit the Great Barrier Reef from other places, such as the Holy Spirit Islands where the famous "heart-shaped reef" is located.

The Great Barrier Reef is a tourist destination I have always wanted to visit. I want to arrange a trip to the Holy Ghost Islands this year. In addition to overlooking the legendary "heart-shaped reef" by seaplane, I also looked forward to the three-day and two-night sailing trip highly recommended by my cousin in Australia. I stayed on the boat for three days and two nights. For this reason, I specially obtained Padi's open water diver license in advance last year, in order to enjoy the Great Barrier Reef. However, in March this year, a hurricane named "Debbie" caused a huge blow to the coral reefs of the Holy Spirit Islands. Some experts say that these damaged coral reefs may take decades to recover. But Cairns Green Island has also been criticized by many friends who have been there for being boring and not beautiful.

Coincidentally, let me go to the South Great Barrier Reef in the southern part of the Holy Spirit Islands. There is a lady named LadyElliotIsland and a lady named Mas gref.

Island), but the former can only go by sightseeing plane, which is more expensive, and the latter can go by boat in Bandabao, a port city 4 hours drive from Brisbane, which is more cost-effective. So the shortest and most economical way from Brisbane to the Great Barrier Reef is to take a boat from Banderburg to musgrave Island. Since we can't sail to the Holy Spirit Islands for the time being, let's take a look at the beautiful scenery of the Great Barrier Reef on musgrave Island.

It is mentioned in the introduction that musgrave Island (hereinafter referred to as "Lady Island") is a coral reef island located in the South Great Barrier Reef. The island is small, with a rainforest above it, and it is also an island where migratory birds breed and stay. Because the island is located in the lagoon of coral reef plate, snorkeling and deep diving are relatively safe. The water in the lagoon is crystal clear, and there are many turtles, fish and all kinds of creatures, which are well worth visiting. Just looking at the aerial photos of the island and the coral reef plate found online, I feel suffocated. It is said that in the South Great Barrier Reef, there is still a chance to meet a man named Great.

8 species: whale, turtle, shark, clown fish, giant clam.

Clam), coral, Datura and Morise are really exciting.

One day in May 2007, four people and friends arrived at Brisbane Airport. Brisbane is the capital of Queensland. There are many high-quality highways in Queensland, and there are a lot of guiding signs on them. If you want to enjoy Australia's rich and varied scenery, then driving is a good choice. Pick up the car from the car rental station at Brisbane Airport, journey to the south. Drive along the M 1 highway, and you will see the continuous glass house mountain in the distance.

In the evening, I live in a seaside apartment in the town of Bargara near Bandenburg. Chef Lao Zhu personally cooked a steak dinner for everyone. Dinner with a glass of red wine would be more perfect ~

The attacker said there was a turtle sanctuary called Meng near the town of Bargara.

Repos, during the turtle breeding season (about every year165438+1October to the following March), turtles will climb this beach to lay eggs.

The next morning, we boarded the boat at BundabergPortMarina on time, and the boat we took was LadyMusgrave.

Operated by experience, it is a brand-new modern high-speed catamaran with three floors. Not afraid of tanning, I went to the third floor to blow my hair and listen to stories, and I was in a daze in front of the second floor on my return trip, so comfortable ~

On the day we went out to sea, the sea was calm and the weather was fine. After staying on the boat for about two and a half hours, we arrived near Lady's Island. The ship almost circled the island and entered the lagoon from the only entrance, only to see a private yacht parked in the lagoon.

There are also three ships named LadyMusgraveExperience moored here day and night for the use of guests attending different activities.

The ship docked in the lagoon, and the crew on board pulled the glass-bottomed boat docked in the distance to the side of the big ship, and then used this boat to take tourists to the island in batches.

Shangfuren Island ~ The whole island belongs to a national park. You can camp on the island for the night, but only 40 people are allowed to camp here every night. You need to apply in advance. Apart from a dry toilet, there are no other facilities on the island, so you have to take all your belongings with you, including fresh water. The couple who are moving their luggage below told us that they planned to camp on this island for four nights.

Chinese tour guides were arranged for China guests on board. The tour guide first leads everyone to walk on the island, explaining and introducing the species of coral reefs and the ecological knowledge of animals and plants on the island.

Lady Island is a coral island in a lagoon surrounded by coral reefs, with an area of only 14 hectares. The area surrounded by coral reefs is 1 192 hectares, and the lagoon accounts for about 1/3 of its area. The tour guide said that the whole island is composed of corals. From the photos, we can see that the beaches are basically dead coral remains. Remember not to go to the island barefoot ~

After hiking on the island, we returned to the glass-bottomed boat. Captain Matthew took us to explore the underwater world and explained to us different kinds and shapes of corals. We saw more than 10 turtles through the glass-bottomed boat, and I was lucky enough to photograph the turtles with their glans sticking out of the sea.

When you get back to the boat, you can help yourself to dinner. Lunch buffet on board: seafood salad, cold meats, fresh fruits, etc.

After dinner, everyone can take part in water activities that interest them. My friends went snorkeling, and I went deep diving with Icy, a Chinese tour guide and diving guide on board.

The crew on board told us that it hardly rains here all the year round. The island is in a lagoon with coral reefs, which surround the lagoon, making the water in the lagoon very stable. The average depth of the lagoon is only 6-8 meters, which provides a very safe environment for divers.

Because it's my first dive after taking the OW certificate for half a year, I'm actually no different from a novice. Icy, the responsible diving guide, has never left my eyes, which makes me feel particularly at ease. Fortunately, there is more flat sand under the lagoon, and I am particularly worried that my poor skills will kill the living corals. Icy also said that he would go diving on the outer reef after practicing his skills. There are many thigh-thick sea cucumbers at the bottom of the sea.

After diving for 45 minutes, I returned to the boat and met my friend who came back from snorkeling. The first thing they said to me was that we touched the tortoise and swam. Boo-hoo, you know how I felt.

We didn't take pictures underwater. Let's steal a picture on the Internet for everyone to feel at will.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the ship returned to Banderburg. On the way back, we stayed at the bow and blew and saw a large group of cheerful dolphins. We croaked with excitement ~ those who would rather stay in the cabin than come out to enjoy the sunshine and sea breeze are gone.

When I returned to the port and pier of Bandenburg from Lady Island, it was near dusk.
