Protecting the Great Barrier Reef: Supporting Conservation Efforts

13 February 2025

As a premier superyacht charter company based in Sydney, Ocean Alliance is committed to preserving the beauty of the environment we operate in.

We’re proud to support global conservation efforts, particularly those aimed at protecting the iconic Great Barrier Reef. This year, we are excited to highlight the ongoing work of the Great Reef Census (GRC) initiative, which plays a critical role in ensuring that the GBR remains a thriving ecosystem for generations to come.

The Great Reef Census: A Global Effort for Coral Protection

The Great Reef Census is a global citizen science initiative designed to collect and analyze data on coral reefs, with a particular focus on the Great Barrier Reef. This year, the Great Reef Census has set ambitious goals to analyze 60,000 images from over 360 reefs, providing essential data for scientists and reef managers working to protect coral ecosystems. Through virtual volunteerism, anyone can contribute to identifying and labelling these coral reef images. By offering your time and attention, you help provide the data needed to protect the GBR and other vulnerable reef systems around the world.

Volunteer a Day of Your Charter for Reef Conservation

Enhance your charter experience by dedicating a day to reef conservation. Guests can participate in the Great Reef Census by assisting in the collection of reef images, which are then submitted for analysis. This unique opportunity allows you to enjoy the beauty of the Great Barrier Reef while actively contributing to its preservation.

Expanding the Census: Protecting Reefs Globally

In 2025, the GRC will expand beyond Australia’s shores, with its first international initiative in Hawaii, thanks to partnerships with local organizations like Kuleana Coral. By empowering local communities and conservationists with crucial data, the GRC aims to safeguard coral reef ecosystems worldwide, ensuring their survival for future generations.

How You Can Help: Get Involved in Reef Conservation

You too can help make a difference. The Great Reef Census relies on donations to fund crucial projects, including coral reef surveys, educational programs, and community training. Every contribution goes directly toward preserving our precious coral reefs and empowering the next generation of conservationists.

Join Us in Protecting the Great Barrier Reef

As we head into 2025, we invite you to join us in supporting the Great Barrier Reef and other coral ecosystems around the globe. By donating or volunteering, you’re helping ensure the survival of one of the world’s most extraordinary natural wonders.
