How deep is the Great Barrier Reef?

I was just wondering how deep dive tours usually go to get to the reef. How many feet down you go?

1. the depth of the lagoon between the reef and the mainland is about 35 m.
2. reefs are NOT really deep...thats why boats used 2 get stuck on them...u see they need sunlight in order to survive and also rely on the tides for food...
3. Coral reefs are found in shallow water, ranging to depths of 60 m More@http://www.barrierreefaustralia.com/the-great-barrier-reef/coralfacts.htm
