We commit a portion of every order to coral adoption and reef restoration projects. As Zigi grows, so does our impact. Your baby corals grow in coral nurseries until they're ready to planted back onto the reef.
The Facts
Coral reefs are often called the rainforests of the sea.
They support around 25% of all marine life, protect coastlines from erosion, and provide food and livelihoods for millions of people worldwide.
Yet today, they are one of the most threatened ecosystems on Earth.
If we continue doing nothing, scientists predict that most coral reefs could disappear by 2050.
That reality is why this partnership matters to us.
By working with Coral Gardeners, we’re helping restore colour and life back into the ocean, one coral (and one bikini) at a time.
Who Are Coral Gardeners?
Coral Gardeners is a non-profit organisation based in French Polynesia, founded by a team of ocean lovers and scientists on a mission to protect and regenerate the world’s coral reefs through hands-on reef restoration and global awareness.
Our Shared Mission
“To revolutionise ocean conservation and restore the world’s coral reefs through science, innovation, and community.”
What Coral Gardeners Do
- Reef Restoration
They plant resilient, heat-tolerant coral fragments onto damaged reefs, helping ecosystems recover naturally.
- Super Coral Research
They identify and cultivate heat-resistant “super corals” that are more likely to survive rising ocean temperatures.
- Education & Awareness
Through powerful storytelling and social media, they raise global awareness about reef decline, and the solutions that can still work.
- Community Involvement
They train local ambassadors and work alongside island communities, ensuring reef protection is long term and locally led.
Why It Matters
- Coral reefs support 25% of all marine life
- Over 500 million people rely on reefs for food, income, and protection
- Without action, we could lose 90% of coral reefs by 2050
