Where Are Coral Reefs Located? Coral reefs are found in all three of the Earth's oceans that have portions in the tropics - the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian. However, coral reefs are not randomly scattered throughout each of these great ocean basins (see map below).
The Great Barrier Reef is the largest coral reef on Earth. A barrier reef is a long, narrow coral formation that lies parallel to the shoreline of a landmass and is mostly underwater. The Great Barrier Reef is in the Coral Sea, off the northeastern coast of Australia. It extends 1,250 miles (2,000 kilometers) from north to south. In the Coral Sea, off the coast of Queensland, Australia, lies the Great Barrier Reef, one of the natural wonders of the world.
