CORALPALOOZA™

A Global Movement for Coral Reefs Comes to St. Croix 

Each year for World Oceans Day, Coral Restoration Foundation brings together ocean lovers around the world to take action for our reefs. 

What started in Florida has grown into a global movement, with Coralpalooza now reaching places like St. Croix and beyond. Recognized as part of the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, the event highlights the urgent need for collective action to restore coral reefs. 

Dive Day in St. Croix takes place June 6th and is open to the public with a minimum Open Water SCUBA certification. Join us underwater and be part of the movement!
