Reef Ball Australia -

Home

We specialise in the design and construction of:

Artificial reefs for fishing, diving, snorkeling

Reefs to offset environmental impacts such as dredging including coral relocation

Reefs for beach protection and tourism, eg. multipurpose breakwaters

Fish friendly structures for coastal developments, jetties, resorts, marinas

Reef Balls are a scientifically proven concrete artificial reef unit now being used in over 59 countries to enhance, protect and rehabilitate reefs and beaches.

The key to their success is that they mimic natural reefs in form and function, quickly increasing fish numbers and diversity as well as being rapidly colonised by corals, algae and sponges.

Designed reefs for enhancing snorkeling, diving and fishing

Combat erosion and sea level rise by constructing Reef Ball breakwaters for beach (or river bank) stabilisation, recreation and enhancement. An increasing number of resorts are now using Reef Ball breakwaters for this purpose.

Coral rehabilitation and habitat enhancement to offset impacts from dredging, development, blast fishing, coral mining, or bleaching. Imperiled corals can saved by transplanting them onto Reef Balls.
