The Great Barrier Reef is the only living thing on earth that can be seen from outer space!
600 continental islands and 350 coral cays are spread throughout the reef.
There are approximately 3400 individual reefs that make up the Barrier Reef.
That the Great Barrier Reef was declared World Heritage on 26th October 1981.
The reef stretches for more than 2300 kilometres, from near Fraser Island off the coast of Queensland Australia to the Papua New Guinean coastline.
Not all coral is hard,in fact some are soft and spongy.
