100% of our proceeds are dedicated to funding and supporting the vital initiatives of Blue Alliance, which partners with governments to establish and co-manage Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) that regenerate coral reef ecosystems and uplift local communities.
Blue Alliance’s MPA management and protection work spans three interconnected areas:
Science and conservation through research and monitoring
Community development and empowerment
MPA surveillance and protection through awareness and compliance
Blue Alliance’s fourth pillar is the creation of sustainable reef-positive businesses through which it aims to bridge the financing gap for the efficient management and protection of MPAs — Coral Reef Safari is owned and operated by Bluewild EcoVentures, Blue Alliance’s ecotourism division.
Every Blue Alliance MPA is designed and managed to rewild ecosystems, enhance food security, promote sustainable Blue Economy development for local communities, and bolster climate change resilience.

Coral Reef Safari was established to provide scuba divers and snorkellers the opportunity to transform their travel choices into meaningful purpose and genuine impact.
100% of proceeds from our distinctive adventures are reinvested into conservation
We contribute to the rewilding of the ocean by financially supporting effective marine conservation efforts, all the while demonstrating the positive impact that business can have when used as a force for good.
We strive to raise awareness among oceanic travellers about the critical significance of Marine Protected Areas and the role they can play in protecting them.
We seek to foster a deeper understanding of marine ecosystems and wildlife while nurturing respectful engagement.
We’re supporting Blue Alliance’s shark research projects in the Philippines.
We pursue best sustainability practices in our operations.
We adopt ‘minimum discharge’ and ‘responsible garbage’ policies in which we; strive to reduce or eliminate the use of single use plastics and manage garbage disposal responsibly; and prevent any toxic chemicals from entering the ocean.
We pursue a ‘minimum impact’ approach in which we; adopt a ‘no touch policy’ in all marine ecosystems which includes prohibiting the sale or display of coral, shells and other marine life; and aim to reduce our underwater footprint through reduced dive and snorkel group size.
We commit to reducing and offsetting our carbon footprint.
Through Blue Alliance, we contribute to protecting endangered Humphead Parrotfish
