Jason deCaires Taylor designs his sculptures to become artificial reefs, while also drawing tourists away from nearby fragile reef systems.
Each sculpture is designed with crevices and textures, making it easier for coral to attach to and marine life to move in.
They’re installed with cranes and divers, placed on barren seabeds chosen by marine biologists to avoid harming existing ecosystems.
And they’re often timed just before coral spawning, giving new larvae the best chance to grow.
Jason has created over 1,200 sculptures around the world, including the world’s first underwater sculpture park in Grenada, now one of Nat Geo’s Top 25 Wonders of the World.
And beyond protecting reefs, these installations help support the people who rely on them.
With over half a billion people depending on coral reefs for their livelihoods, we need more solutions like this that can support coastal communities and our wonderful marine life too!
