Our Passion

A leading resource in marine education, experience, opportunities, and consultancy, WiseOceans was established back in 2011 with one goal in mind: to engage, educate and inspire people everywhere to love our oceans, and the life within them.

The vision we work towards is a world where marine conservation is in action, through an engaged, educated, and inspired global community, leading to healthy, thriving marine environments. As such, we deliver conservation programmes with education and engagement at their core. Marrying sound scientific practice with innovative project design, we deliver programmes with local benefits, and global reach. Through our bespoke programmes, and global marine education delivered by WiseOceans Academy, we aim to improve the health of tropical coastal ecosystems on a local scale and increase the awareness of marine conservation on a global scale.

Reef Restoration

We create effective, engaging, and educational reef restoration projects of innovative design, which are bespoke to the local environmental and stakeholder needs. Based on sound scientific foundations, our projects assist the natural recovery of a reef and help to maintain coral diversity and natural resilience.

We have numerous projects where we aim to restore degraded areas of reef using the coral gardening technique and to inspire a sense of stewardship in local and international communities by connecting people to coral, and the threats that our reefs face.
