Great Barrier Reef

Sign in to edit

The Great Barrier Reef is depicted as the home location of Nemo, Marlin, Coral, Dory and the Tank Gang in the Pixar film Finding Nemo and its sequel, Finding Dory.

Locations Within[]

Marlin's former anemone[]

This pink anemone at the reef's drop-off is where Marlin and Coral once lived until the latter and all but one of their +400 eggs were all presumably eaten by a barracuda, causing Marlin to become overly concerned about Nemo's (his only surviving child) safety.

Marlin and Nemo's current anemone[]

Image-3

This yellow anemone is where Marlin and Nemo currently live. A coral stands right next to it, with Dory using it as her living quarters.

Mr. Johanson's backyard[]

This sandy pit is where the grouchy flounder Mr. Johanson lives. Many fish parents warn their kids not to play in his yard. However, when Mr. Johanson shows up, due to him being a flounder, is completely unable to find the intruders since his eyes are both on only one side of his face.

Sponge beds[]

These sponge beds serve as a playground to the baby fish. A green parrotfish and a purple tang family usually hang out here, however, one of the baby purple tangs falls off the sponge beds from jumping too hard, hurts himself and starts crying as his mother comforts him.

Mr. Ray's schoolyard[]

This sandy pit also acts as the schoolyard for the spotted eagle ray schoolteacher Mr. Ray. Many fish parents drop their kids off here at the start of each school day.

Dory's Brain Coral[]

This is a hollowed-out brain coral serving as Dory's home after she moves in next door to Marlin and Nemo's anemone near the beginning of Finding Dory, one year after Finding Nemo.

Stingray Migration[]

This is a seaweed-filled field where Mr. Ray and his class go to view the annual stingray migration on their field trip.

Petting Zoo[]

The Petting Zoo is a location mentioned in the first film. When Marlin is escorting Nemo to school Nemo asks his father not to freak out the same way he did at the petting zoo. Marlin defends himself claiming that the Sea Snail they've encountered was about to charge (Though this was likely an overstatement on Marlin's part).

Drop-off[]

This is the point where the reef ends and the open water begins. Nemo is captured by a diver and brought to Sydney from there in Finding Nemo, but a year later, in Finding Dory, Marlin, Nemo, and Dory look out into the open water in some trepidation, anticipating the quest for Dory's parents. At the end of the movie, however, after Dory's parents are found and join them on the reef, Marlin and Dory look out at the open water in wonder, enjoying the view.
