Great Barrier Reef for Divers
Stretching 1,250 miles along Australia’s northeast coast, the Great Barrier Reef encompasses over 2,100 individual reefs in a span of 135,000 square miles. The immense underwater playground is perfect for divers looking for solitude, save for the abundant local wildlife that includes some 400 types of coral, 1,500 species of fish, and rare green turtles and dugongs (sea cows). Join the underwater party with Contiki Tours, whose year-round five-day open-water courses are geared towards single travelers. Kicking off from Cairns, Contiki organizes nearly everything from dive boat accommodations and daily meals to scuba gear and dive instruction. All you’ll need is a cozzie (Aussie slang for swimsuit) and an underwater camera to chronicle your time alone with the fish.
