Great Barrier Reef - Worth it?
I snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef a few years ago from Cairns. We took a boat to this platform thing and snorkeled off there and took a semi-submersible ride. I was actually very unimpressed with the Great Barrier Reef at this spot and found it to be pretty crappy snorkeling, as in there really was not much coral or fish to see. Well, there was actually a good amount of fish, but there were only like three or four varieties. I am sure there are better places to snorkel the reef, but from my experience it was not worth it.
