A small swell greeted our team at Narrowneck and we saw interesting diversity of algae and sponges, along with countless black feather stars. Following a visit by a pod of friendly dolphins, we headed into the shelter of the seaway and swam with the fish at Wavebreak Island.

A break in the weather saw a small team head out to complete our surveys at Narrowneck Artificial Reef and Wavebreak Island, on the Gold Coast. What a great way to kick off December! 🐬🌱🐟#allhandsondeck #volunteertoprotect #SaveOurReefs

If you are looking for something a little different this year, think about giving an experience rather than a physical gift. We have some beautiful experiences and events to share, so stay tuned!

For our giving month of December, we wish to showcase some of the awesome brands, groups, businesses, and individuals working together to create a change in the world around us! 💙

Check out some of our incredible volunteers in action! #volunteertoprotect #allhandsondeck

It's time for the @RSRC_UQ lab to leave #HeronIsland, and one last chance to say goodbye to all the shy little #ReefCreatures like this adorable Pink #Anenomefish (the best anenomefish IMO) peeping out from inside her #anenome home #clownfish @ReefCheckAus

We work across many different lands, including Yuggera and Turrbal Country where this post was created. We acknowledge that sovereignty over this land was never ceded, and the fight for healthy reefs would not be possible without meaningful collaboration with Traditional Owners.

This #NAIDOCWeek2020, we can all learn and acknowledge the Aboriginal Country that we work, live and benefit from! Check out the @AIATSIS map of Indigenous Australia here: aiatsis.gov.au/explore/map-in…
