The Great Barrier Reef

The Great Barrier Reef was discovered in 1770 when the HM Bark Endeavour captained by English explorer James Cook, ran aground there. The ship was damaged severely. Before that time Europeans were unaware of the Great Barrier Reef's existence. Today it is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
