Michaelmas Cay is located in the sea northeast of Keynes, about 45 kilometers from the mainland, part of the Great Barrier Reef (Great Barrier Reef),. Michaelmas Cay is a seabirk colony, about 10 kilometers long, 6, 000-year-old sand island. The delicate white sand constitutes the island, the sea is blue, the land is white, it is a paradise that can not be described in words.
You won't be disappointed if you like watching birds, because there are thousands of nesting birds there. The newborn chicks keep flying around you. There is no vegetation here but sand. Snorkeling here is world-famous, not only safe, but also around the coral reef can be seen huge turtles, octopuses, devils and so on.
Michaelmas Cay is not only a marine sanctuary, but also a wild base for protected and migratory seabirds, and is the most famous wildlife habitat in the southern hemisphere. It is surrounded by the Great Barrier Reef and magnificent corals and huge shellfish. Underwater fish species are abundant, the water is clear, and protected coral reefs always hide tropical fish. Under the care of Australians, the ecology is well protected, and only a small area of the island allows visitors to sit and dive, but this is respect and protection of nature.
