Program Details

Our main focus to save Cambodian marine life is through our coral nursery. Our nursery is an area within the ocean about 100m off the beach, where we take broken corals and reattach them to rocks. In the nursery the corals can grow and revive themselves until they are ready to be reintroduced into the coral reef. This process takes about 6 months. During these 6 months, we watch as the corals come to life again, which is typically seen by the amount of sea life that begins to integrate itself into and around the corals
We expect you to fully participate in all our activities with enthusiasm and commitment.
