Wheeler Reef is located 42 nautical miles E/NE of the coast of Townsville. And is the best reef dive you'll do on the Great Barrier Reef. It has been part of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park protected zone for well over 20 years and is visited by only one or two boats a week making it a fantastic dive site with pristine corals and crystal clear water. On this amazing and un-crowded dive site you can dive and snorkel among hundreds of reef fish, turtles, rays and reef sharks. Wheeler Reef has a variety of dives. You can choose to stay and explore the fringing reef and canyons around the lagoon or you can head for deeper water, and explore the bommies and channels that surround the reef starting in around 2 meters of water and dropping off to 35 plus meters. For the snorkelers Wheeler is fantastic as you can follow the channels between the reef right up into the shallows and you'll probably see as much of this amazing reef as the divers. You can take the opportunity to do an introductory dive so you can explore the reef from below.
