Sculptures scattered across sheltered fringing reef, turtle and manta forms among giant clams and a resident 1.5m Maori wrasse called Priscilla. Easy snorkelling straight off a mooring. Installed from 2022 as part of Queensland's post-bleaching reef-tourism strategy, deliberately sited on already-popular mooring reefs so charter guests can snorkel art without leaving the anchorage. Anchorage: Public moorings at Langford, Blue Pearl and Manta Ray Bay, prime Whitsunday overnight spots. Hazards: Aug-Oct (dry, no stingers, 15-20m viz).
