You might have witnessed on pictures or experienced for yourself the beauty that surrounds the surface of the Maldivian waters. What most of you have not seen or experienced is what lies beneath the surface of this crystal clear inviting seas. The coral reefs in the Maldives boast of the most diverse marine habitats in the world. These corals are home to a vast array of tropical fish and amazing number of interesting species who depend on these eco systems.
Although they add immensely to the fascinating under water beauty of the Maldives, Corals are very sensitive and vulnerable organisms that are affected by extreme weather conditions and environmental changes. The coral adoption programme is an initiative by the Anantara Maldives resorts along with the Aqua fanatics club as a long term plan to share the learning experience with its valued guests and improve the regeneration of the growth of these corals in the atoll reef.
There is increasing attention by most resorts to keep their carbon foot prints to a minimum making Maldives a thoroughly environmentally conscious destination. Apart from this the coral adoption programme allows environmentally aware individuals to support the growth of these beautiful eco systems for a small fee yearly, while monitoring the growth of the corals online. It is widely known and accepted that corals protect a cross section of sea life and the atolls, from erosion and wave action. However they are under immense threat due to unfavourable temperatures owing to global warming and human activity such as overfishing and careless diving.
