It is recommended to live in Shangri-La, it is convenient to eat and walk around, 200 meters from the pier. The outer Barrier Reef is worth going, and you have to go early. Now the coral color is less, the activity is degraded, and the effect of going late is even worse. Merchant service is very good, always track orders.

The plane skimmed low.. The blue beauty of Tiffany in front of us is suffocating. We took a helicopter from Hamilton Island. After passing through Hill Bay and White Paradise Beach, we flew about 20 minutes to the sea between the deep and shallow sea beds. This time we have entered the Great Barrier Reef. Arrive at Heart Reef Heart Reef Pilot will specially remind and fly low

The Great Barrier Reef is divided into the Inner Barrier Reef and the Outer Barrier Reef. The difference is that the Inner Barrier Reef is closer to Cairns. There are many people but the coral and sea scenery are far less than the Outer Barrier Reef. The Outer Barrier Reef is far away from Cairns. The Moore Reef is the closest to Cairns. The Outer Barrier Reef is very crystal The colorful coral reefs, which are located on the seabed's tiny white sand beds, are a wonderful sight whether they are sitting on a helicopter overlooking the entire Great Barrier Reef or diving into the sea to watch various tropical fish shuttle between the corals.

Please cherish nature, protect the environment to see so many bleached corals on the Great Barrier Reef really sad energy saving and emission reduction, reducing global warming is our thing, and there is no sunscreen in the sea! Sunscreen is deadly to corals, and it will be diluted in the sea immediately after entering the water

The Green Island is the closest to the pier, and it is very good for seasick people, and you can go to the island. The beach is white and clear, and the sea is blue, which is very beautiful. It is very suitable for sand swimming. The snorkeling range is very large, and the seabed coral reefs and fish are visible on the clear water. It’s too hot and too suny, but unfortunately the boat arrived at the hottest time and returned in the afternoon. If it is evening, it should be cool and comfortable on the beach.

I will stay for at least a few hours in terms of ferry time, but I thought it would be tough to stay because there was nothing to do than I thought. The sea is beautiful if it is sunny, but it may be a little painful because there are many corals to enter

The island is surrounded by coral reefs, so the shuttle boats to and from the island can snorkel. The sea around the island is not clear enough, but you can also see small fish. There are lighthouses on the island, plants and animals that you don’t know, and the sand is very fine.

If weather permits, or you have the chance to go out on holiday, don't hesitate to come here. The reef is an amazing goddess reef, you can walk out and walk around the reef, and the worries about life will be gone during the day.

Townsville Magnetic Island spends less than $500 per person for three days and two nights. Air tickets + Forest Tree House + Rent a car + Snorkeling yuan is very worth! High cost performance! It is highly recommended that you go to Magnetic Island for a weekend. You can fish on the island, feed wild kangaroos, climb mountains and snorkel.
