SNORKLE AT CORAL RESTORATION PANAMA
As fortune would have it, our “next door” neighbors are the founders of Coral Restoration Panama. The project helps a coral nursery to propagate and grow reef-building corals to outplant into regionally endangered coral reefs. The Coral Restoration Center also promotes education and awareness programs in the community with the understanding that shared knowledge will be the key to continued success.
Artificial reef structures are placed in the sea to provide suitable habitat for fish repopulation needs and immediate supplementation to erosion and sediment control, in addition to being a coral nursery project. Local craftsmen produce the structures in organic shapes so that they blend into the natural landscape as much as possible. Made from concrete specially formulated to be an acceptable substrate for coral, they become a platform for re-colonization of coral reefs.
You can visit and snorkel over this budding nursery, or choose to get more involved, take a tour, work with the team, and even donate to get your name and design integrated into the project. Visit them here to learn more.
