The Great Barrier Reef is a most remarkable place. When I dived over the reef I had a copious amount of wildlife for company - as well as the rubbish and worst from boats moored upstream! The reef is obviously a magnet for tourists and for those who make a living from tourists and it is unfortunate that one of my enduring memories of the reef is attempting to surface through a cloud of toilet refuge from five boats moored further up the current. If you can find a guide who will take you (in safety) away from the usual tourist spots the reef lives up to its reputation as one of the most beautiful areas in the world. The coral - for all the erosion - is still to be marvelled at and the wildlife second to none.
