Christopher Cameron reports for the New York Post about this ‘great’ barrier reef, an elite snorkelers’ secret with whale sharks and a luxury safari camp, Sal Salis.

“Every grade schooler knows that Australia’s Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest. The stuff of Attenborough doc legend, it’s also one of Australia’s biggest draws, attracting 2.4 million travelers to its vast marine park last year. But across this island continent, more than 2,100 miles away (about the same distance from New York to Los Angles as the Airbus flies), there is another vast, unspoiled reef that we doubt your 7-year-old knows much about. It doesn’t see millions of international tourists — in fact, barely 200,000 people visit in a given year.”

“Sal Salis is a mere 15 tents placed in modest distance amongst the dunes facing the reef. Step from your tent and you can be floating with the octopuses and friendly reef sharks in under 60 seconds. It’s built around an open central lodge that is the hub for meals, relaxation and postprandial gin absorption.”
