Beyond
the continental shelf that harbours
the Great Barrier Reef, lie the isolated
reef systems and crystal clear waters
of Australia's Coral Sea. This is home
territory for huge schools of pelagic
fish and sharks in an undersea world
of mountains, pinnacles and sheer walls
laced with golden gorgonian fans and
rising from thousand of feet below.
Be
prepared for an amazing range of diving
experiences on your 4 Day / 4 Night
adventure to Australia's Coral Sea.
Your first day will include a couple
of orientation dives on the outer reefs
of the Great Barrier Reef before travelling
out to the Oceanic Wilderness of the
Coral Sea.
Destinations will vary and
be selected according to the prevailing
weather in order to provide you the
best diving, most comfortable conditions
and maximum dive tims. Sites will vary
from 1000 metre walls to magical coral
gardens to lone seamounts emerging from
the ocean depths.
Renowned for crystal
clear water with average visibility
well in excess of 40 metres, a diver
can appear suspended in air against
a vertical wall laced with massive gorgonian
fans.
Sharks and schooling pelagics
cruise through an amazing display of
gorgonians, sea whips, and bright yellow
soft corals, while nudibranch, anemones,
unusual tropical fish, invertebrates,
and huge schools of fish provide a rich
variety of marine life.
