CORAL PROJECT
Get a deeper understanding of the marine life of the Maldives
CORAL PROJECT
Coral replanting aims to regenerate the reef following both natural and man-made damage. The vision is to assist in the recovery of the reef that has been damaged by different stressors such as wave action, sand turbulence, and global warming. There are various methods used for regrowing fragmented corals, and our team on the island is assisting the resident marine biologist in replanting the corals.
Coral reef-building is a long and gradual process that needs constant attention in the initial phase. Each restoration site will have a different set of circumstances to consider, and regular monitoring is necessary to ensure the replanted corals will survive.

GET INVOLVED
Visit the marine centre and see how you can participate in the conservation program. By deepening your knowledge about the marine ecosystem and how it affects our day-to-day lives, it creates a culture of commitment to help preserve and protect the environment.
See how some of the replanted corals are growing, join a guided snorkelling tour of the house reef. You may also try to explore the reef on a semi submarine ride and see why you need to help preserve the environment for future generations to enjoy.
