The Enchanting Realm of Coral Reefs

Coral reefs are some of the most diverse and important ecosystems on Earth. They provide homes and shelter for a vast array of marine life, from the tiniest shrimp to the largest fish. Coral reefs are sometimes referred to as the "rainforests of the sea" because of the incredible array of life they support.

Coral reefs are built by millions of tiny coral polyps each one like a tiny architect constructing the reef over time. Protecting coral reefs is crucial for maintaining marine biodiversity and supporting fishing industries and coastal protection.
