Sites Visited:

Beyond the continental shelf that harbours the GBR, lie the isolated reef systems and crystal clear waters of Australia's Coral Sea. This is home territory for huge schools of pelagic fish and sharks in an undersea world of mountains, pinnacles and sheer walls laced with gorgonian fans and rising from thousands of feet below. It is to these destinations that the live aboard "Spirit of Freedom" will take you.
