Great Barrier Reef tour boats dot the harbor, ready to whisk visitors to underwater wonders. The free Esplanade Lagoon provides safe swimming with a postcard-perfect backdrop. Aboriginal art fills the Night Markets as travelers plan tomorrow's reef explorations. Modern hotels stand beside colonial buildings in this purpose-built tourist zone.
