Coral Identification
5
Are you a scuba diver or like to take pictures when you are snorkeling. I can help you identify the coral you saw on your holiday to learn more about coral around the world. I am passionate about coral reef and coral restoration.
If you are working on a coral restoration project I would love to help you identify which corals are going to work best for your project.
I specialize in Caribbean coral identification but I can also help you identify corals from around the world. Send me any picture of coral I will help you identify what type of coral it could be. Include the location where you took the picture.
Please note that images with high resolution are best, as coral identification involves zooming in and looking at the different parts of the coral and the coral skeleton. Some images may be more difficult to identify. I will do my best with all your photos.
Training & Qualifications
I write professionally about coral identification on my website www.reefdivers.io
