Become a Coral Reef Education Institute Citizen Scientists and help monitor our coral reefs in Hawaii.

Coral Reef Monitoring

We are working with the Department of Aquatic Resources in Hawaii and NOAA to establish a long term coral reef monitoring program in the state of Hawaii. Our goal is to train as many Citizen Scientists as we can to help with this effort. We want dive operators and dive enthusiasts from all Islands to participate and help us coordinate our data collection. We aim to establish a team of survey divers who are collecting consistent data that is used by local government and scientists. This data will assist in changing policy and laws to better protect our ocean environment and our coral reefs.

Not Scuba Certified? No problem, we offer scuba certification courses and the Peak Performance Buoyancy course to ensure you are a proficient survey diver.
