Meaningful. Sustainable. Unforgettable
Journey to the Dominican Republic to discover the wonders of marine life— and what you can do to help preserve it. Here, you’ll learn about the effects of overfishing, tourism and climate change on coral reef in the Caribbean before joining the movement to support its restoration. Working together with community members, you’ll collect fragments of naturally broken coral and transplant them back into the reef, and do your part to preserve this important ecosystem. As you foster meaningful relationships within the community, you’ll celebrate customs and help continue conservation efforts for generation to come.
