Nau mai, haere mai. Welcome to the REAF web site.

Catch our win-win vision and hook into our action.

There are many fisheries tools geared to manage our take from existing fish stocks, but few that aim to give back to the marine world.

Much of our seabeds are relatively quite featureless and lack the structure that many fish and other marine species need. A start has been made with enhancing such seabed just out of the little coastal township of Opotiki, New Zealand.

What is created here could equally have applications for all fishermen no matter where you might live. With rising petrol prices affecting fishermen too, building resilence into your ability to continue fishing, provide for your family and others plus grow more fish for future generations becomes even more significant.

This is also a win-win proposition in other ways.

If you have always felt an affinity with the sea, and wish to build closer ties, then REAF offers you a unique way of connecting with the marine world. Imagine your own named charted reef that can be either kept private or made known for the local fishing community's use. You can even Google your reef spot and share it with friends.
Your name or message can literally live with the fish. Imagine that for a moment, then act now for a lifetime.

If protecting the environment, saving endangered species and reducing greenhouse gases concerns you then REAF Tours offers a four point conservation exploration to lead us to a more sustainable future.

You are invited to join our action in the options offered below.

Eco-active options for you.

If you are making plans to be visiting New Zealand's East Coast then you can pre book for the Day Tour and spend time getting first hand knowledge and experiences that help connect you in a meaningful way with our marine environment. Get involved with a community based reef building project that will leave your host community empowered. Details are found on our Day Tour page.

From your computer anywhere in the World you can have your name connected with the marine environment and help make a difference. Check out our REAF Building page for all the options available, including building a Memory REAF in recognition of a deceased loved one.
From a small donation (koha) right through to building an entire reef system that will bear the name of your choosing, it all helps our global ocean.

If you are in New Zealand and keen to lend a hand with Opotiki's Community Reef Project, or take in a spot of local fishing, then check out our Day Tour, Eco-Fishing Charters, Community Reef and Research pages.

If you are an Opotiki local, you might want to consider building your own whanau (family) REAF. To find out more explore the Self Build option.
