The #BarrierReef is a type of coral reef that runs parallel to the coastline, creating a protective barrier between the open ocean and the adjacent land. It is characterized by its vast size and ecological significance. One of the most famous examples of a barrier reef is the Great Barrier Reef, located off the northeastern coast of Australia. • Barrier reefs are formed by the growth and accumulation of coral polyps, which secrete calcium carbonate to create hard, skeletal structures. They are usually located several kilometers offshore, separated from the mainland by a lagoon. The reef system itself is a complex network of interconnected coral formations, providing habitats for a diverse range of marine life.
