Adoption Program

Back2Blue x Coral Gardeners

Shop. Protect. Restore the Reef.

Every purchase of $100 or more comes with a gifted coral adoption, supporting the mission of Coral Gardeners to restore coral reefs and protect marine ecosystems.

About Coral Gardeners

Coral Gardeners was born in 2017 in Mo'orea after a small group of island kids noticed the rapid degradation of their home reef and decided to act. Today, the project has evolved into a global organization on a mission to save coral reefs through active restoration, science, innovation, and community awareness. We are supporting their mission — one coral, one purchase at a time.

To date, Coral Gardeners has transplanted well over 170,000 corals across restoration sites in Moorea (French Polynesia), Malolo (Fiji) and Koh Kood (Thailand).

Back 2 Blue has adopted 150 corals supporting their nurseries in Moorea.

When you shop Back 2 Blue, your purchase can make a real impact on the ocean.

Spend $100 or more and we'll gift you the adoption of a coral from Coral Gardeners' nurseries in Moorea.

These corals are carefully grown in nurseries before being transplanted onto damaged reefs, helping restore ocean life, color, and biodiversity.

About the Coral Adoption Program

Your Purchase Supports Coral Growth

The coral adoption program allows Back 2 Blue shoppers to directly contribute to reef restoration. Every adopted coral is nurtured in a coral nursery, where restoration teams work to cultivate resilient corals that will one day thrive on degraded reefs.

By adopting a coral through your purchase, you're helping:

  • Restore marine biodiversity
  • Protect fragile reef ecosystems
  • Support global ocean conservation efforts

Healthy coral reefs are essential for life in the ocean—and for coastal communities. They:

  • Support 25% of marine species
  • Protect coastlines from erosion
  • Sustain fisheries and livelihoods
  • Combat climate-related ocean damage

Your $100+ purchase directly helps these efforts through the coral adoption program.
