In 1998 and 2016, the El Niño climate cycle resulted in particularly warm seas in the Indian Ocean, which bleached a large number of coral reefs surrounding COMO Maalifushi. While there is still a plethora of untouched reefs, it is important for the local economy — and a quarter of all marine life — that all the islands’ coral flourishes.
We have teamed up with Seamarc — a marine consultancy company — to plant new coral frames on the seafloor, which encourage new reefs to grow and prosper.
You can sponsor one of these frames, name it, and track its progress via twice yearly photographic updates as well as go on complimentary guided dives to its location every time you visit COMO Maalifushi. Our Marine Biologist will assist with assembling the frame: collecting coral fragments from our house reefs and attaching them securely. You will be shown where your frame is needed to help propagate the reef.
Coral frame sponsorship is priced at US$200 for a single frame, US$350 for a couple frame and US$550 for a family frame.
