REEF TEACH

Cairn’s unique education centre for The Great Barrier Reef.

The Reef Teach presentation is a very entertaining evening, full of amazing facts, beautiful images, and the opportunity to handle a wide range of corals and other marine specimens – including some of the dangerous creatures you wouldn’t want to touch if they were alive! It will amaze, inspire, and captivate you, and have you laughing about the funny facts and weird and wonderful ways in which the reef works!

“With learning comes appreciation“

Pelagic Dive Travel partners with Reef Teach by providing Free Presentations to all divers visiting Cairns. After the presentation, they will also receive an underwater Fish ID Slate for their diving! Through education and awareness, we can help protect and support the Great Barrier Reef!

CORAL SEA FOUNDATION

Our aim is to raise awareness of the ecological and social value the Coral Sea & Eastern Coral Triangle and to be proactive in its sustainable management.

The Coral Sea borders the Great Barrier Reef and the island archipelagos of Melanesia and contains marine ecosystems of exceptionally high quality and biodiversity.

This region contains the last great reservoir of ultra-diverse coral reef in the world, yet most of it is remote and rarely visited, and is in urgent need of our assistance. 

Combining an ethos of science, ecotourism, and sustainability, the Foundation works with traditional owners to develop marine reserves that enhance fisheries and eco-tourism resources, while improving the basic quality of life of people in our partner villages.

We fully support a global transition to renewable energy as a means of mitigating the effects of climate disruption on coral reefs, and we have a strong commitment to delivering our programs with innovative sailing vessels driven by wind power and biofuels.

"Simply put, these coral reefs are too precious to lose."

Pelagic Dive Travel partners with Coral Sea Foundation by providing liveaboard charter organisation into the regions where they have programs. We are currently organising a Liveaboard into Papua New Guinea to visit a site of theirs in Milne Bay. 

CITIZENS OF THE GREAT BARRIER REEF

Our mission is to protect and conserve the Great Barrier Reef, and reefs all around the world.

Our connected platform is powered by your actions, bringing together people, projects and organisations from across the Reef and around the world.

United we will inspire collaboration and collective impact on a global scale. From ditching single-use plastics to citizen science and world-leading research – everyone has a part to play.

Commit to a brighter future for the reef. Join us.

Pelagic Dive Travel partners with Citizens of the Great Barrier Reef by inviting Divers to join and see what they can do about changing their impact. Education and awareness of everyday activities are the keys to reducing impacts and start to create more awareness for the circular economy. 

TOO RARE TO WEAR

Help End Demand for Turtleshell Products

Hawksbill sea turtles are one of the most beautiful and important species in the ocean. They help coral reefs thrive by eating sponges and are a thrill for divers and snorkelers to see in the wild. But they have been hunted to the edge of extinction for their colourful shell. Their shells (also known as "tortoiseshell") are made into jewellery and other products that are frequently sold to travellers in markets across Latin America & the Caribbean and other tropical regions. 

Join us to help end the demand for turtle shell products. Together we’ll bring back these sea turtles.

Pelagic Dive Travel partners with Too Rare to Wear by supplying fact sheet to all divers heading into areas with Hawksbill Turtles. These fact sheets are about how to identify illegal Turtleshell products and create awareness about the decline of the Hawksbill population. We need to make sure Turtles remain for generations!
