New in 2010. Reef Building 101 - a short one hour look into the principles identified to develop sustainable fisheries. More details, prices, group deals are to be seen at our web site 'Marine Life Tours' .
Our Reef Builders Experience is designed to take you to a stage where you could build a reef in you backyard, deploy it from your 6m boat, and begin to understand our deeper connection with our marine world.
A lot can be achieved in one day, but 2 days is better. Depending on sea conditions some deployment work could also be undertaken.
You will
Learn how to grow more fish in the sea
Make a marine enhancement module
Contribute to the Opotiki Community Reef
