Caused by warming of the ocean water, pollution and the hands of fishermen and tourists, coral has been affected worldwide.
The coral reefs in and around the bay of Sosúa are in several places in a deplorable state.
Now the owners of the diving schools in Sosúa (including Dive Center Merlin and Dive Cabarete), with the support of the board of ADSS, plan to approach the decline of coral with appropriate means.
For this, they have manufactured metal structures that serve as a growth location for new to form coral.
The accompanying video shows how these structures are placed in the ocean and are provided with healthy coral parts.
According to Bill Passmore, these nesting sites will become beautiful coral locations within five years.
But there are still many more metal structures, thus breeding grounds needed, for the growth of coral.
These incubators have to be improved and maintained.
To make this possible, sponsors are needed.
Would you like to support this lovely and necessary project with sponsorship, contact Bill Passmore of Dive Center Merlin in Sosua.
