Environmental associations – Sea, lagoon, and ocean

In Moorea, numerous associations work to protect the lagoon, reef, and ocean. Their actions focus on preserving marine ecosystems, raising public awareness, and promoting best practices related to the sea. These associations are involved in a variety of issues: coral protection, marine biodiversity monitoring, reef restoration, lagoon use management, species protection, and human activity supervision. They often work in collaboration with residents, marine professionals, schools, and institutions. Some organizations focus on concrete actions such as coral replanting, lagoon cleaning, scientific monitoring, and disseminating information on protection rules, particularly within the framework of the PGEM. Others develop educational projects to raise awareness among young people and visitors about the fragility of the marine environment. Associations such as Animara Moorea, Association PGEM Moorea, Coral Gardeners, Oceania Association, and Te Mau Hotu Rau No Moorea participate in these actions to protect the sea and lagoon. Together, they help preserve a marine environment that is essential to the island's balance and local life.
