Description

Bait Reef is one of the best known and most spectacular locations on the Great Barrier
Reef. An "oasis" for all sorts of tropical marine life, with turtles and manta rays common
sights. Coral gardens, underwater canyons, swim throughs and dramatic walls provide a
range of terrain to explore. An ideal location for snorkelers and scuba divers. Snorkelers can explore the shallow gardens on top of the reef.

Beginner divers, are escorted by the instructors around the reef formations at
around 10 metres (30 feet). The more experienced divers can investigate the canyons and walls at "Stepping Stones".
