Maldives coral reefs are among the most biodiverse ecosystems on Earth, serving as habitats for countless marine species and offering breathtaking underwater experiences for tourists. However, these fragile ecosystems face severe threats from climate change, coral bleaching, and human activities. Projects like the Addu Coral Relocation aim to combat these challenges by restoring and protecting coral reefs.
When the Reefscapers team arrived in Addu, we were proud to provide comprehensive support to ensure the success of this critical conservation effort. Addu Travel & Tours played a key role in:
Our assistance allowed the Reefscapers team to focus entirely on their mission to relocate corals and establish a thriving marine ecosystem in Addu Atoll.
Our involvement didn’t end when the Reefscapers team completed their work. For four weeks, we observed the Meedhoo Tourism Zone Coral Garden, monitoring its development to ensure the coral fragments adapted successfully. This initiative reflects our ongoing commitment to protecting Addu’s marine environment.
The Addu Coral Relocation Project focuses on preserving biodiversity in the Addu City. The initiative involved relocating coral fragments to restore damaged reefs, enhance marine habitats, and promote sustainable eco-tourism in the region. The project also serves as a vital educational tool, raising awareness about the importance of coral conservation among locals and visitors alike.
