Coral Restoration

Blue Corner ★ Royale Merchant

We have partnered with Blue Corner Dive & Marine Conservation to restore our worlds coral reefs. We have committed to plant one coral per necklace sold from our ocean related collection including the coral chain, shark tooth pendant and wave coin. Join us in the battle against climate change and let's restore the coral reefs together, one coral at a time. Follow the journey on our instagram: @royale.merchant

Benefits of Restoring Coral Reef:

Coral restoration and planting new corals offer a wide range of ecological, economic, and social benefits. These efforts help reverse the decline of coral reefs and support both marine biodiversity

Ecological Benefits

• Coral restoration increases biodiversity by providing habitat for thousands of marine species, including fish, invertebrates, and other reef-dependent organisms.
• Restored reefs help rebuild ecosystem complexity and resilience, supporting the recovery of ecological functions such as nutrient cycling and food web stability.
• Coral seeding and outplanting can accelerate the recovery of damaged reefs, especially after bleaching or storm events, by boosting coral genetic diversity.

Coastal Protection

• Healthy coral reefs act as natural barriers, reducing the impact of waves, storms, and tsunamis on coastal communities.
• Restoration can prevent coastal erosion and flooding, protecting infrastructure, property, and lives—especially in vulnerable regions.

Economic and Livelihood Benefits

• Coral restoration supports local economies by creating jobs in reef management, ecotourism, and fisheries.
• Restored reefs boost tourism and recreation, generating income for coastal communities through diving, snorkeling, and related activities.
• Healthy reefs sustain fisheries, providing food security for millions of people who depend on reef-based resources.

Long-Term Sustainability

• Coral restoration can help reefs adapt to changing environmental conditions, such as rising sea levels, by supporting natural growth and recovery processes.
• Coral restoration complements broader conservation strategies, including climate action and pollution reduction, to ensure the long-term survival of coral reefs.
