Dive-site story
Positioned along the protected western flank of Flynn Reef on the Outer Great Barrier Reef, Little Tracey's features a cluster of coral bommies rising from a clean white sand seabed. Coral cover here includes massive plate Acropora, dense staghorn thickets, and scattered soft coral gardens that provide shelter to juvenile reef fish and resting sea turtles.
Scattered coral pinnacles sheltering sleeping whitetip reef sharks along the sandy floor
Expansive fields of hard branching and plate corals hosting giant clams and anemonefish colonies
Sheltered conditions typical of Flynn Reef's lee side, offering steady navigation around isolated bommies
