REEF Surveys

We are partnering with the Reef Environmental Education Foundation (REEF) to conduct fish species and abundance surveys on our surrounding reefs!

The REEF curriculum will be taught to all our Coral Restoration Volunteers as well as on our PADI AWARE Fish Identification Specialty course, allowing volunteers and students to collect and report information on the health of our reefs to the largest global marine life database.

A little about REEF: “Reef Environmental Education Foundation (REEF) protects marine life through education, service, and research. REEF facilitates programs that actively engage divers, snorkelers, and other marine enthusiasts in marine conservation. This is primarily accomplished through the Volunteer Fish Survey Project. Since its launch in 1993, this citizen science program has generated one of the largest marine life databases in the world. In 2024, the database surpassed 300,000 surveys conducted at almost 18,000 sites throughout the world’s oceans by over 17,000 volunteer divers and snorkelers worldwide.”.
