When most people picture coral restoration, they think of divers outplanting corals on the reef. But that’s just one chapter of the restoration story. 🪸 From gene banking and propagation to nursery care and long-term monitoring, there’s a whole world of work happening behind the scenes. These practices are rebuilding Florida’s Coral Reef and forming a scalable model shared with restoration teams around the globe.

Science can be so beautiful. These bioball streamers might look like underwater sculptures, but they’re working hard to catch the tiniest baby sea urchins. To better understand how these urchins settle in the wild, @sustainableoceanandreefs has deployed bioball “streamers” at our Tavernier and Carysfort nurseries. These specially designed collectors capture wild-settling Diadema antillarium larvae, which are then transferred to a grazer nursery for cultivation and monitoring.

From nursery to classroom to open ocean — reef restoration is a skill that can be shared across the globe. 🌍🪸 Last week, Valentine and Kelley from the American Samoa Coral Reef Advisory Group wrapped up an intensive CRF Global Learning Exchange with us in the Florida Keys. This wasn’t just about learning techniques, it was about building trust, collaboration, and momentum for coral restoration worldwide. We're grateful to support dedicated leaders protecting reefs in their home waters. Want to collaborate globally?

From the Pacific to the Keys 🪸 This spring, we welcomed leaders from American Samoa’s Coral Reef Advisory Group to the Florida Keys for a hands-on CRF Global Learning Exchange, supported by @nfwf Over one immersive week, we built skills in coral nursery structures, propagation techniques, genetic management, photomosaic monitoring, data collection, and stakeholder engagement—all designed to scale restoration back in the Pacific. Thank you to Valentine and Kelley for joining us!

How it started ➡️ How it’s going One year ago, we had a blank slate. Today, we have a coral nursery that is home to thousands of corals, trained local divers, and a growing reef restoration movement in St. Croix. This is what one year of hard work, science, and community can do. Follow our journey in St. Croix!

Happy first anniversary CRF St. Croix! One year ago, we dropped anchor in St. Croix and started building something impactful. With the support of local divers, partners, and community members, we’ve grown a thriving coral nursery, restored reef habitat, and created new momentum for reef recovery in the Virgin Islands. This is what it looks like when restoration is led by community, powered by science, and fueled by hope. And it’s just the beginning!
