We're Rewriting
Reef HistoryBecause the reefs can't protect themselves
The Bahamas’ coral reef ecosystems are critically endangered – but it’s not too late to save them. Current coral protection and reef restoration efforts are primarily funded by small-scale donations and grants that are insufficient to address coral reefs’ rapid decline. A new ocean conservation initiative by the Bahamas Protected Areas Fund, supported by The Nature Conservancy’s BahamaReefs Program, is set to rewrite reef history.
About The BahamaReefs Program
BahamaReefs is a long-term, impact-driven initiative to scale up coral reef restoration at key pilot sites, including Bimini, Old Bahama Bay Marina, Spanish Wells, Green Turtle Cay, and Chubb Cay. The program is led by The Nature Conservancy in collaboration with the Global Fund for Coral Reefs, the Bahamas Protected Areas Fund, and other strategic partners.
