The coast line of Australia is so regular that for long distancesthere are no good harbors; but the sinking of the land in the south-eastern part has caused some excellent ports. Off the northeastern coast is the Great Barrier Beef, the longest coralreef in the world. This has been built by coral animals, which still thrivethere in great numbers. A few openings allow ships to enter the quietchannel betAveen the reef and the land; but navigation is not easy, andonly an experienced pilot can avoid the dangerous shoals. Small sail-boats carrying divers and their assistants, usually Malays, are engaged onthis reef and the northern shores of Australia in fishing for pearls, pearlshell, and other products of tropical waters.
