Newly Discovered Reef is Said to Rival Great Barrier Reef - by Ariel Bogle/ Australia/ World/ mashable.com

"With its multitudes of marine animal and plant life, the Great Barrier Reef is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and indisputably one of the wonders of the world.

But now it may have a rival — in the south of Australia.

According to officials from Parks Victoria, Wilsons Promontory Marine National Park near Melbourne can match the Great Barrier Reef for its abundance of coral, sponge and fish.

There are important differences, however, since the reefs in Victoria are in deeper water than the Great Barrier Reef in Queensland, making it a better destination for scuba divers while being less accessible for snorkelers..."
