Coral Reefs Are Magical
- "Ask anyone to imagine a pristine ocean experience and odds are they picture a coral reef. Reefs are magical. They make the world's best surf spots, our best SCUBA and snorkeling spots and are one of the most important ecological habitats on earth -- they are the rain forests of the sea. Sadly, coral reefs around the globe are succumbing to human abuse." - excerpt from the article, "International Year of the Reef 2008" in Surfrider's Making Waves publication for March 2008.
