Todos Santos Eco Adventures

Coral gardening with Efecto Arena is a fun, direct way to participate in local conservation efforts, a way to leave Baja California Sur a better place than when you got here. The program begins at the Efecto Arena facility in La Paz on the shore of the Sea of Cortez with a discussion about corals and their importance to ocean health – so you can really understand the important nature of the work you are about to do. We then help the Efecto Arena team plant coral fragments recovered from popular dive sites into PVC “beds” where they will grow in a nursery for about 6 months, then planted back at their original location. After planting the fragments we can snorkel to see the nursery where they are maturing before being returned to their home. The whole program take approximately 3 hours. It’s totally cool!
