ʻĀkoʻakoʻa Reef Restoration Program
In its first steps to revitalize the reef, the ʻĀkoʻakoʻa dive team carefully collected corals and transported them to a new, state-of-the-art coral research and propagation facility located in Kailua-Kona. These corals were rescued following their detachment from the seafloor due to strong ocean waves.
