The Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest and most impressive coral reef system, and if you want to explore its diverse coral and marine life, Townsville is a good place to start. This Australian city is one of the most popular gateways to the Great Barrier Reef and there are several different ways to explore it during your visit.

Reef Headquarters Aquarium

Townsville is home to the world’s largest living coral reef aquarium that offers a great insight into the biodiversity of the Great Barrier Reef. It’s home to over a hundred coral and fish species, along with sea stars, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, and many other forms of sea life.

Boat and Helicopter

If you don’t want to explore the Great Barrier Reef from afar, you can see it up close by joining one of the boat and helicopter tours from Townsville. Diving and snorkeling tours are also pretty popular with the tourists visiting this city.

Museum of Underwater Art

One of Townsville’s most recently launched tourist attractions, MOUA is Australia’s only underwater museum at this point in time. Its main vision is to inspire and educate the globe about reef conservation through the art created by underwater sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor.

If you’re a huge fan of diving, looking for the best possible way to explore the Great Barrier Reef, the Museum of Underwater Art is just the place for you. This unique museum offers an unforgettable underwater experience by letting visitors swim through an art exhibition.

This MOUA can be found off the shore of Townsville, on the ocean floor of the Great Barrier Reef. It can be accessed by boat from four locations—Palm Island, Coral Greenhouse, Ocean Siren, and Magnetic Island. You can book your visit with local tour operators Yongala Dive and Adrenalin Snorkel and Dive.

What makes the visit to the Museum of Underwater Art different than your usual diving adventure is all the amazing art you’ll get to see along the way. It was designed by the world-famous underwater sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor, who managed to create a unique blend of art and marine science.

The main mission behind this museum is to inspire reef conversation and start a conversation about its importance. The sculptures serve as amazing areas for coral growth because they’re made of stainless steel and pH-neutral cement. They’re also safe for other marine creatures, such as octopuses and sea urchins.
