CORALPALOOZA
A GLOBAL MOVEMENT FOR OUR CORAL REEFS!
To celebrate World Oceans Day every year, Coral Restoration Foundation mobilizes thousands of ocean lovers in Florida and around the world to take action to restore our planet’s disappearing coral reefs. Coral reefs are a vital part of our planet’s life support system, providing food and coastal protection for millions. Yet, they are vanishing at an alarming rate, threatening marine ecosystems and human communities worldwide.
Year after year, Coralpalooza makes waves with large scale action taking place over three days in Florida, and with reef-saving activities happening around the world as part of the Coralpalooza Community.
Recognized by the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, and listed as a UN Ocean Decade event, we are shining a light on the urgent need for collaborative efforts to restore our planets’ coral reefs.
Dive Days in the Upper and Lower Keys are scheduled for June 4th, 5th and 6th. These are open to the public with a minimum SCUBA certification of Open Water.
(2026 Dive Days are SOLD OUT!)
