Description

Barrier Reef Traveller is an armchair traveller’s guide on how to see the Great Barrier Reef. It cover all points all along the Queensland coast from which the Reef is accessible – from the gateway cities of Bundaberg in the south to Cooktown in the north, as well as all island resorts from Lady Elliot to Lizard Island. It Includes a bound-in, 1-metre-long fold-out map of the Queensland coast and Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.

Barrier Reef Traveller also provides a general introduction to the Great Barrier Reef and some of its fascinating marine life; an overview of scuba diving along the entire stretch of the reef; general information about fishing, sailing as well as tips for tropical holidays – everything one needs to know to get the most out of a Barrier Reef holiday.

Published in 1989, some particulars are out of date, but the basic qualitative information and description of the islands and mainland remains accurate, and this is still the most useful guide of its type that is available.
