Gold Coast Dive Adventures have been selected for the City’s newest tourist attraction

Bookings are now open for experienced divers to discover this unique underwater world with tour operator Gold Coast Dive Adventures.

“This one-of-a-kind diving attraction will attract divers from around the world,” said Mayor Tom Tate.

“It’s going to put the Gold Coast on the map for top diving experiences and I’m pleased to see two local businesses joining us on the journey.”

Wonder Reef is located about 2.5 kilometres offshore from Philip Park, The Spit, at a depth of 30 metres, and featuring nine world-first buoyant sculptural reef flutes.

 Gold Coast Dive Adventures is based at Runaway Bay Marina and will offer scuba diving tours. You can book a dive here!

“We are excited to be a part of putting the Gold Coast on the international stage of extraordinary dive locations,” said Harry Cottrell, CEO of Gold Coast Dive Adventures.

Tourism Minister Stirling Hinchliffe said, “Wonder Reef is tipped to top the bucket lists of divers around the world and is part of our commitment to helping Gold Coast tourism build back better.

“This is another great addition to the world-class visitor experiences that make the Gold Coast the world’s favourite Australian holiday playground destination.”

Member for Gaven and Environment Minister Meaghan Scanlon said Wonder Reef’s potential as a diving attraction was exciting.

“Wonder Reef is a Queensland-made triumph of innovation and science with real coral plantings thriving and adding a kaleidoscope of underwater colour,” Ms Scanlon said.

“With operators locked in and the website taking bookings, it’s game on for Wonder Reef on the Gold Coast.”

The new website was recently launched to give locals and visitors a glimpse at the world-class dive site. Visit wonderreef.com.au
