Скачать или смотреть Reef Surveys at Reg Ward Reef

The outer Great Barrier Reef has a huge number of reef sites with exceptional live coral cover, and this is one of them - Reg Ward Reef, in the Bandjin Reefs complex, Central Section. 18° 1.400'S 146° 47.140'E

We first saw this reef during our 2020 survey expedition, and our whole team were amazed at the quality of the coral and marine life. Featured here is video footage captured by Coral Sea Foundation Director Dr Cristiana Damiano during those surveys.

The coral on Reg Ward Reef has continued to flourish, and as a result of our survey information, the reef is now monitored for Crown of Thorns Seastar outbreaks by the Great Barrier reef Marine Park Authority, ensuring that these coral predators will not have a chance to feed on this oasis of life on the edge of the Coral Sea.
