Ever thought about a trip to take your mind away from all its preoccupations and relax a bit? Planning a getaway to some scenic destination to enjoy the wonders of nature? Looking for suggestions? Well, there is a place that just might be perfect. The Great Barrier Reef off the coast of Queensland, Australia is a marvel of nature. The reef which is located in the Coral Sea is not only the largest coral reef in the world but it is also the largest single structure made from living organisms. Did you know that it is visible from outer space as well? It extends for over 2,600km and is home to 900 islands and a variety of living beings. This massive structure is nearly the size of Malaysia and every year around 2 million people turn up to enjoy the sheer brilliance of nature that is on display here. The reef offers a variety of options to quench the thirsty traveller in you.
Explore the waters and the reefs
You can get a chance to dive down into the clear waters of the sea and see the coral reefs up close. Who would not cherish a chance to view the colourful marine life and breathtaking underwater scenery that is offered? Naturally, most tourists grab the chance with both arms. Whether to don a snorkel or a scuba mask and flippers is left to your choice. Some take to snorkelling and check out the beautiful scenes deep down the waters. A more adventurous option would be scuba diving which lets you go even deeper into the waters. Beautiful glimpses of fish, sea turtles and whales greet you once you take the plunge. The images would be good enough to stay forever imprinted in your mind.
A view from the skies
This glorious sculpture of nature offers an excellent visual from the skies as well. The large expanse can surely give as breathtaking a view from the skies as you get from the ground. But how do you get to the skies? Here as well you are going to be spoilt for choice. A hot air balloon ride or seaplane or helicopter? The choice is once again yours. Each option brings with it infinite possibilities to take in the amazing view below. In addition to the reefs and the marine life, the area is blessed with a number of migratory bird species as well. A ride through the skies can get you a better glimpse of these winged wonders as well.
Chill out at one of Australia’s best beaches
The Whitehaven beach is nothing short of a delight. The pure white sand adorns the shore which is never overcrowded. The sandy shore stands in beautiful contrast to the blue waters of the surrounding sea. The location is ideal for a sunbath, some refreshing time alone and moonlit nights. There are a number of water sport activities at your disposal as well. The Whitehaven beach is located in an island chain called the Whitsundays, which is filled with scenic spots.
All this is just the tip of an iceberg. The attractions include a rainforest, a scenic railway, more wildlife and many more spectacular sceneries. Make the most out of your life and travel to destinations such as these to get a glimpse of how majestic nature can be.
