If you visit one new beach in Australia every day, it would take over 27 years to see them all.

The marine environment of Australia is home to 4000 different fish species, 500 coral species in the northern reefs, 50 distinct types of marine mammals, and a diverse spectrum of seabirds. It is believed that up to 80 percent of marine species found in southern Australian seas are found nowhere else on the planet.
