Welcome to the Coral Reef Alliance (CORAL), the only international organization working exclusively to save coral reefs. CORAL provides education, tools, and inspiration to help local communities become passionate environmental stewards for the reefs. Together we develop managed marine protected areas and sustainable businesses to benefit coral reefs and people.
New NOAA Report on Reef Health Confirms that almost half of the coral reefs in U.S. territory are in poor or fair condition and have declined due to natural and human threats. To protect reefs, CORAL promotes resiliency—a proven method of combating large-scale threats from rising sea temperatures and land-based pollution.
Video Highlights Impact of MPAs This award-winning video shows just how effective CORAL's approach can be in Mexico, comparing the unprotected and declining Akumal reef with the thriving marine protected area in Cozumel where CORAL works.
