an active reef, full of life, drama, and mystery.\u00a0 There\u2019s just something about going somewhere you shouldn\u2019t, relying on technology and your team to keep you alive, and just being present in that moment of beauty and vitality.\u00a0 But, don\u2019t take our word for it!\u00a0 Whether you consider yourself a newbie or an advanced diver, we\u2019ve found a reef for you!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Great Barrier Reef, Australia<\/h4>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8701\"

\/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Great Barrier Reef certainly rakes in the tourist dollars like it\u2019s one of the best reefs in the world.\u00a0 It\u2019s by far the biggest and, perhaps, the most beautiful; so, it\u2019s no surprise that it\u2019s also the most famous and easily identifiable reef on the planet.\u00a0 And, as a result, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isango.com\/cairns-palm-cove-port-douglas\/the-outer-barrier-reef-cruise-from-cairns-and-port-douglas_1410\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Great Barrier Reef tours<\/a> generate around $2.2-billion for the regional economy, every year.\u00a0 It&#8217;s a unique opportunity to see over 1,500 different species of fish, 200 bird species, and 400 species of coral.\u00a0 However, environmental and man-made threats to the reef are manifold.\u00a0 Thus, limiting your environmental impact on the Great Barrier Reef is one of the most important things to do in Australia.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Shark Reef &amp; Yolanda Reef, Egypt<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8702\"

\/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As part of the 1,200-mile-long Red Sea Reef, Shark Reef in Egypt has enjoyed worldwide acclaim as a dive site for decades.\u00a0 Take a liveaboard from Sharm el Sheikh and make your drop at Anemone City!\u00a0 As you continue your drift past Shark Reef, you see small fish, gorgonians, and sharks.\u00a0 Then, the current picks up and you\u2019ll cruise past Yolanda Reef with its giant morays, unicorn fish, and Napoleon wrasses.\u00a0 Finally, get dumped at the wreckage of the Yolanda, where fish have made homes in the ship\u2019s lost cargo:\u00a0 Toilets!\u00a0 All of this makes Shark Reef one of the best reefs in the world!\u00a0 And, if you don\u2019t feel like braving the strong currents, you can always take a ride on a <a

\/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The island nation of Palau is basically a diver\u2019s paradise.\u00a0 And, Palau\u2019s most famous dive spot, Blue Corner, almost always enters the conversation when discussing the best reefs in the world.\u00a0 You\u2019ll find everything from dolphins, whitetip sharks, and manta rays to an endless assortment of colorful nudibranches. \u00a0Most divers generally consider Blue Corner an advanced dive, so you probably shouldn\u2019t make it your first scuba experience.\u00a0 But, if you consider yourself an expert with the reef hook, then a Blue Corner dive should rank highly on your to-do list.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Bari Reef, Bonaire<\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8704\"
