Ocean Gardener presents at Bali hotel
Marine ecosystems face unprecedented challenges from climate change, pollution, and overfishing. Our conservation efforts focus on protecting these vital habitats through innovative restoration techniques and community engagement.
Through partnerships with marine biologists and local communities, we implement coral restoration programs, establish marine protected areas, and educate visitors about ocean conservation. Our work has successfully restored over 100 hectares of coral reef and protected critical spawning grounds for endangered species.
By participating in our marine conservation programs, travelers contribute directly to ocean protection while gaining firsthand experience in marine biology and conservation science.

Ocean Gardener
Established in 2016, we are a diverse team of biologists, divers and coral enthusiasts that drive to make change by restoring Indonesia’s degraded reef areas. By relying on our founder’s 25 years of coral farming experience, we have achieved great success rates in our coral restoration sites. We actively partner with local communities, hotels, resorts and dive shops to setup and deploy coral nurseries using our protocols. From these nurseries, we harvest donor coral to restore the surrounding reefs. Collectively with our partners, we have planted over 1 million corals. We offer tours for the public to learn about coral restoration and courses for people wanting more hands-on experience and stay to volunteer.
