Osprey Reef Close to the Edge
Text by Ross Isaacs
Photography by Lance Robb and Ross Isaacs
Discovered in 1803, Osprey Reef is located 120 nautical miles east of the Australian mainland, beyond the Great Barrier Reef. The reef is perched on top of an isolated seamount in the Coral Sea and is not part of the Great Barrier Reef system itself. It rises over a kilometre up from the deep-sea floor to the oceans surface.
