Coral Sea, Great Barrier Reef, Australia

The Old Faithful for divers, the Great Barrier Reef has aged gracefully as an underwater destination. "Suitable for all levels of diver, the Great Barrier Reef can be dived all year round," says Jackson. PADI network has ranked the Reef as #10 of their 10 best diving spots. Calmest in October, Jackson finds the Coral Sea to be the best place for diving in the Reef. Sea snakes and sharks are common sightings, and there the mythical visibility of close to 200 feet is what keeps bringing divers back.
