Local | By Correspondent August 11, 2020

WILLEMSTAD - More and more divers are destroying coral. The Coral Restauration Team Curaçao reported this last weekend.

As a result, a handful of broken staghorn coral was found on the reef at Caracasbaai.

The restoration team thinks the damage is mainly caused by inexperienced divers who cannot control their buoyancy. The team tries to save the broken coral by replanting them.
