The reef is both a home and
a source of food for many different marine spicies. There are a about
100 varieties of hard corals, over 100 types of soft corals, more then
1000 kinds of fish, mammals and so much more. This complex ecosystem is
very sensitive.
We can unwittingly cause
irrevocable damage to this special environment. Therefore we ask your assistance
in helping us to preserve this natural treasure. The message lies hidden
in the word “CORAL”.

Caution – enter and exit the water in an area free from corals,being especially careful during low tides and in rough water. Corals are very fragile and break easily if we sit or stand on them. Their growth rate is very slow, only a few centimeters per year. If a coral is breaken off, decades of growth may be destroyed at once. You can also be injured, corals can cut us and fire coral will give us bad burns if we touch it.
