Cities of Light
Picture a moonlit ocean illuminated by swirling galaxies of color and light. This is what it looks like when corals reproduce; this is a thriving community.
Why Coral Reefs
Safeguards for communities
They protect coastlines from the impacts of storms, waves, and erosion — reducing wave energy by up to 97%.
More biodiverse than rainforests
Despite occupying less than 1% of the ocean floor, they support 25% of marine species.
Healthy reefs, healthy everyone
Coral reefs generate an estimated $2.7 trillion annually while sustaining closing to one billion livelihoods.

What we do
Coral farming at scale
Restore natural barriers
Build back natural breakwaters for coastal communities, mitigating the impact of storms, hurricanes, and typhoons.
Grow local economies
Support the reef-dependent, eco-tourism economies that generate tens of billions of dollars annually.
Support coastal communities
Provide food, jobs, shelter from storms, and restored cultural heritage sites for the billions of people who rely on reefs.

The benefits of land-based farming
Microfragmentation
An open source restoration method harnessing corals natural healing properties, where tiny fragments are cut and then fuse back together. This allows us to grow diverse coral species in months and years instead of decades and centuries.
Assisted evolution
A series of conditioning techniques that allow us to train corals to better survive worsening conditions, select for more resilient traits, and breed native species through lab-based spawning.
Centralized facilities
Our high-tech farms incorporating the latest coral restoration innovations that are able to scale for ecological impact. A single land-based Coral Vita farm has the potential to grow millions of corals.
