The only diving I have done in the Green Island area have been on deep (in mean 100 feet deep where the bottom is at 140 feet). I have no experience on the shallow reefs in the Marine Park. I would guess that because that area is not as aggressively visited (scuba or snorkel) the reefs are in a better shape (not being kicked on and pulled on). In principle, because it is a Marine Park, fishing is not permitted (right!).
From what I have read, the reef is within 100 yards from shore (that is swimmable if you are a swimmer) and is close to the surface in many locations. There is a wide variety of channels, sand flats, wall faces, small caves and crevices, and interesting coral formations along with a good variety of fish.
