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.
