大堡礁
昆士蘭沿岸綿延 2300 公里的世界最大珊瑚礁系統,以凱恩斯、道葛拉斯港、聖靈群島為主要門戶。
大堡礁是世界最大的珊瑚礁生態系統,由約 2900 個獨立礁體和 900 多座島嶼組成,沿澳大利亞昆士蘭州海岸綿延約 2300 公里,1981 年列入世界自然遺產。旅遊上主要從幾個門戶出海:凱恩斯是最大門戶,可乘船前往外堡礁的浮潛潛水平台、綠島與費茨羅伊島,也可乘庫蘭達觀光火車與空中纜車進入熱帶雨林;北面的道葛拉斯港更為寧靜,可出海到低島群與 Agincourt 礁,並順路遊覽世界最古老熱帶雨林之一的戴恩樹;南面的聖靈群島(Whitsundays)有白天堂海灘與心形礁,可乘水上飛機或參加帆船過夜遊;湯斯維爾與磁島有澳洲最大的珊瑚礁水族館和考拉;更南的赫維灣、伊里奧特夫人島則是觀鯨與海龜產卵地。建議凱恩斯—道葛拉斯港 4-5 天、聖靈群島 2-3 天。注意防曬(使用珊瑚友好型防曬霜)與水母季防護,選擇獲得生態認證的出海運營商;近年珊瑚白化頻發,出行前可檢視礁體健康狀況。
