Coral reefs are some of the most diverse ecosystems on the planet, supporting more species per unit area than any other marine environment. However, the health of coral reefs around the world is in serious decline due to human and natural causes. One solution is helping with the reproduction of coral, or coral propagation. The founding principle of Ocean Quests’ Coral Propagation Program (CPP) is that the program is only to rebuild damaged reefs, not to create new reefs where they were not previously found. The procedure uses only live rocks and broken coral parts found on the reefs to rehabilitate them, no unnatural items as plastic or cement are brought into the proces. Our BB instructors and divemaster have trained the Ocean Quest process and we have coral propagation programs, helping the local reefs to grow and recover from damage.
