What to do and see in Great Barrier Reef, Queensland: The Best Piers & Boardwalks

March 20, 2022 Joeann Galban

The world's largest coral reef system, the Great Barrier Reef stretches almost 1500 miles into the Pacific from the tip of Queensland. Designated a Marine Park by the Australian government and a World Heritage Area by UNESCO, the reef is home to an extraordinary abundance of species and habitats. Snorkeling, diving and fishing are rightly popular along the reef, nowhere more so than on the Whitsunday Islands, where the silica sands and aqua waters of the Coral Sea create the perfect beach escape.

Shute Harbour

Reviewed By joniquelife - Australia, null

Coral Beach Walking Track, Beautiful little morning hike over in Shute Harbour just outside of Airlie Beach Township ???? Only a grade 2 trail and very reasonably walk (approx 4kms return), it goes through forest then to a beautiful coral beach, hence the name and then back into forest before taking you to a breathtaking little wooden lookout platform overlooking Shute Harbour and the surrounding islands ???? Add this one to your list if you visit and are looking for a nice easy hike “Jonique Life” Follow our journey around Australia on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube as we highlight wonderful experiences and magical places you can add to your ever growing bucket list.
