Visitors can take part in a unique experience on the Great Barrier Reef with InterContinental Hayman Island Resort.
Discover the beauty of the Reef and gain insight from the Great Barrier Reef Foundation into the ground breaking scientific and engineering breakthroughs that are helping to protect and restore this natural wonder.
Coral reefs are the beating heart of our oceans. They provide nurseries and food for a quarter of all marine life and sustain a billion people worldwide.
Venture out on the Reef aboard a luxury vessel and learn about the coral restoration programs from world-leading marine scientists.
Coral spawning is an annual event where corals simultaneously reproduce. During this synchronised breeding, coral polyps release millions of tiny egg and sperm bundles into the water.
Each bundle must find another bundle from the same species to fertilise. By spawning on mass, corals increase the likelihood of finding and fertilising a matching bundle.
