2020

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to disrupt international travel, placing strain on our resource and finances, we have taken the difficult decision to permanently close the Southern Leyte Coral Reef Conservation Project in the Philippines. This decision follows months of internal reviews and assessments of the project’s viability in the current, and forecasted, climate. 

Having operated in the Philippines for over twenty years, we would like to express our absolute gratitude to all of those that have supported, and enabled the achievements of, the project. The success of conservation actions in Southern Leyte would not have been possible without the Coral Cay Conservation family.

This, however, is not the end for Coral Cay Conservation and despite the gloom of our current situation, we have hope on the horizon and are working tirelessly to develop and launch a new project a bit closer to home, in the Red Sea. As always, we will provide updates in the future and look forward to a strong 2021 and onwards.
