" "


The Great Barrier Reef is one of the seven wonders of the natural world, and pulling away from it, and viewing it from a greater distance, you can understand why. It is larger than the Great Wall of China and the only living thing on earth visible from space.

The Great Barrier Reef is the world's largest coral reef system composed of over 2,900 individual reefs and 900 islands stretching for over 2,600 kilometres (1,600 mi) over an area of approximately 344,400 square kilometres (133,000 sq mi).  The reef is located in the Coral Sea, off the coast of Queensland, Australia.



Great barrier Reef is the largest collection of coral in Australia. Amounts to 400 species of corals. Extends for 3,000 km near the coast of Queensland. It is estimated there are 1,500 species of fish live there. 
His condition is very beautiful. That said, the existence of these reefs have been around 25 million years ago.
