Seascape Caribbean has been nursery-rearing, planting and on-reef maintaining ecosystem keystone corals for two decades, registering in 2008 as the first private sector contractor in the coral enhancement/restoration space and the only providing EbA/ecosystem service restoration at real-world scale, including economies of scale.
We specialize in nearshore marine coral and coral reefs and reef ecosystem services. Relatedly, we also work with fishing communities in MPA and ecotourism, development and the management of seagrasses. To beaches, we work in wave attenuation through both living coral reef structures and aesthetic & functional enhancements of artificial reefs and engineered solutions such as groynes and revetments.
Our group also enhances aesthetics and useability to resort’s reefs, lagoons, estuaries, rivers, ponds and lakes including golf-courses and villa ponds or aquariums within more traditional landscaping themes.
