Coral Gardens

Located near Cairns, the Coral Gardens mooring rests in 8 meters of water on a sandy seabed. Directly ahead is a wall rising from 5 meters to the surface along the reef's edge. Behind the wall, you'll find stunning coral gardens featuring stands of staghorn coral among terraces of table corals, boulder coral heads, and plates, interspersed with swaying soft corals. It's essential to practice no-touch diving here. Beyond the coral plateau, a terraced slope descends from 10 to 20 meters, also richly adorned with coral stands.
