Freestyle Divers Marine Conservation Academy is creating an underwater city of beautiful artificial reefs on the coast of Fujairah, UAE.
In partnership with Azraq, the UAE based Marine Conservation NGO, we have worked with local corporations to sponsor the creation of coral nurseries and artificial reef structures that will transform barren sandy coastal waters into a thriving reef ecosystem teeming with life.
The project base is at Dibba, Fujairah and its objectives include the creation of increased coral stocks to mitigate the effect of bleaching events, the scientific study of the rate at which a new coral ecosystem colonizes with different species as well as the education of conservationists in how to protect our threatened reef ecosystems.
