The American Reef Coalition is based on the island of Maui in the Hawaiian islands.  Hawaii comprises approximately 80% of all the coral reef found in the United States and U.S. Territories.  

Situated in the middle of the largest ocean on our planet and home to the second largest marine protected area in the world, the Hawaiian Islands may be the last stronghold for the living coral reef. 

We need your help... Check out our Donation page and our Crew Membership opportunity.  See if you can get behind our projects and help us save the planet, one coral reef at a time.  Click Here for free American Reef Coalition mermaid sticker.
