The largest living coral reef in the world is the Great Barrier Reef, located off the coast of Queensland, Australia. Spanning over 2,300 kilometers (1,430 miles), it is made up of over 2,900 individual reefs and 900 islands. The reef is home to a diverse range of marine life, including fish, turtles, sharks, and hundreds of coral species. The Great Barrier Reef is a UNESCO World Heritage site and plays a critical role in marine biodiversity, but it faces threats from climate change and human activities like pollution and overfishing.
