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.

Cairns' indoor dome wildlife park, which houses many unique Australian animals including kangaroos, koalas, and crocodiles. They all live here leisurely, very interesting, and definitely worth visiting.

It was a very long and open beach! The wind is comfortable and I think it's the best for a beach picnic ✨✨ There was a place where you could barbecue along the sea 🍗 However, it was a pity that it was raining a little 💧

The Great Barrier Reef is a popular way to visit the Great Barrier Reef. A group of 6 people took a sightseeing helicopter from a professional helicopter company. It took about an hour and a half to circle the Great Barrier Reef. It is really beautiful to enjoy the Great Barrier Reef from a high altitude. The colors are shallow and deep. The islands of various shapes are like pearls set in the blue sea. It's really beautiful.

Waterfalls
pxy0705
Byron Falls in the Kulanda Rainforest is definitely the most spectacular view of the forest. The waterfalls are step by step from the peak, sparking layers of water. In the rainy time, the water volume is also very large, but also very spectacular, but in the dry water period, there is also a waterfall like a white ribbon hanging in the mountains, especially beautiful.

The Great Barrier Reef tour of Green Island is a great way to experience the Great Barrier Reef. Everyone takes a glass-bottomed cruise to the islands of the Great Barrier Reef. During this time, you can dive into the sea, or watch the beautiful coral world on the seabed of the Great Barrier Reef through a glass bottom boat. It is very relaxing and enjoyable and worth experiencing.
