The Wonder Reef opened its doors at the Gold Coast

The Gold Coast’s newest tourist attraction, the Wonder Reef, was officially opened in June, with an underwater ribbon cutting by Mayor Tom Tate and Queensland Deputy Premier Steven Miles.

The 5 million dollars dive attraction for experienced divers is a fusion of art, science and engineering and is already home to hundreds of different marine life species.
