Artificial Reefs Vision and Benefits with Reef Worlds

Our dynamic reef vision follows in the footsteps of legendary American architect Frank Lloyd Wright who coined the term "Organic Architecture" to describe his philosophy of design. Wright’s philosophy was “form and function are one,” focusing attention on the importance of natural and appropriate building materials, site integration, and coexistence with the environment and natural elements.

"5,000 years of design"

At Reef Worlds we have incorporated 5,000 years of human design: elements of Mayan, South East Asian and ancient civilizations – including the oceans own organic designs – all come together to create made-to-order iconic Reef World Guardians, our ten foot tall interactive statues and structures that regional wildlife will soon inhabit and incorporate.

The end result for your development is the creation of a new, fully monetized, dynamic reef environment inclusive of snorkel and diving sites branded to your development where none previously existed and the revenue numbers are compelling.

Reef Worlds design teams fuse art, marine science, and technology to enhance your clients’ underwater experience and your bottom line. Reef Worlds quickly monetize the dead space off your property’s oceanfront or design remote sites to create interactive worlds that divers, swimmers, and snorkelers will find themselves engaging with time and again.

The back-stories to your new Reef Worlds are key. Your clients will soon come to believe that this unique and fabulous undersea world off your shoreline was “discovered" – not created. Additionally at Reef Worlds we have ways of creating return experiences for time share and fractional ownership properties with your clients that will have them guessing as to the true nature of your new Reef World. Three languages are represented at each Reef World, and each world has several Rosetta stones to decipher the ultimate story here. Will the final message point to buried treasure? Or will your clients be directed to the next Reef World you build half a world away?

Engagement, discovery, and adventure await. At Reef Worlds creating lasting client relationships with your property and brand is our goal.

Benefits to Degraded Reefs and Habitat

It is no secret that coastal and reef habitats worldwide are being degraded. Reefs are dying off and marine life is on the move taking with it a billion-dollar dive tourism industry. Scientists studying Caribbean reefs say that 2012 may be the worst year ever for coral death there. Abnormally warm water since June of 2009 appears to have dealt a blow to both shallow and deep-sea corals that is likely to top the regional devastation of 2005, when 80% of corals were bleached and as many as 40% died in areas on the eastern side of the Caribbean. This is a global phenomenon.

For resort developments and the never ending battle for tourism dollars, all this means bad news. Reef Worlds has the solution.

Our benefits to degraded marine environments off your resort provide a compelling and interactive experience for divers, snorkelers, and casual swimmers. The billion-dollar dive travel industry is based on marine life; divers are leaving traditional areas, once abundant with marine life, for newer sites. With them goes your tourism dollars. Reef Worlds’ completely interactive dive sites and tailor made structure development bring back divers and snorkelers for multi-day dive adventures, while regional reef life use these carefully designed structures enhancing the man made experience with nature. If you have never had a dive program and have always wanted one, Reef Worlds can help create instant dive tourism in even the most degraded habitat or enhance sites you already have.

Additionally Reef Worlds serve as mass tourism aggregators. For government agencies and NGO's tasked with protecting A Class reefs, while at the same time managing mass tourism, Reef World sites placed away from natural reefs serve as a buffer against the damage mass tourism can bring to a natural reef system. We offer a compelling revenue based tourism alternative to sites closures, set aside areas, and reef balls
