Happy World Seagrass Day Seagrass meadows are a vital Reef ecosystem, and a crucial food source for dugongs and green turtles. They're a superpower in supporting biodiversity, providing essential habitat, and improving water quality. While they might not grab attention like coral reefs, they're just as important to the health of the Great Barrier Reef. 📸 @greatbarrierreeffoundation #LovetheReef | Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority
