The Great Barrier Reef is located off the northeastern coast of Australia, stretching over 2,300 kilometers along the Queensland coastline. It is the world's largest coral reef system, comprising thousands of individual reefs and islands, and is renowned for its stunning biodiversity, housing thousands of marine species. Its ecological significance and unique beauty make it a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a popular destination for tourism and research. However, it faces threats from climate change, pollution, and overfishing, highlighting the need for conservation efforts.
