Welcome to your new daydream: win a night on the Great Barrier Reef

Airbnb Australia has come up with the crazy idea of giving someone one night’s stay at the Great Barrier Reef. They don’t mean some landlocked Barrier Reef Resort, or a Barrier Reef Motel, or even Luxury Great Barrier Reef Apartments where if you balance on a chair on the balcony and stare into the distance with a hope and a dream, you might see the sea. No, they mean in the middle of the ocean – where you could see some of the world’s most mind-boggling marine biodiversity by putting on a snorkel mask and wriggling up to the edge of your living room.

They’re going to fly the winner in from wherever they are in the world, so it’s open to almost everyone – and you’ll have dinner made for you by one of Australia’s most influential chefs, as well as a ‘tour of the grounds’ dive, guided by a marine biologist.

If you’re interested, enter here. It’ll mean you need to sign up for Airbnb, but let’s be honest: people try all kinds of things to get you to sign up for stuff. They promise deals, they promise 20% off, they promise that as soon as you fill out your personal details on this form they will stop squeezing your hand and staring with slightly menacing intent into your eyes. This one seems pretty painless.

Also, as always, make sure you read the terms and conditions. The house rules include ‘no clownfish jokes’ and ‘don’t bark at the seals.’ You wouldn’t want to be evicted for no reason, now would you?
