Introducing Rotary Reefs 2.0 – Expanding Our Impact in 2025

Building on our success, we are proud to launch Rotary Reefs 2.0, expanding our reef restoration efforts globally, including an ambitious new project in Bocas del Toro, Panama. Through our work in Panama, we have gained invaluable insights and now have the full support of the Governor of Bocas del Toro and key organizations across Central America.

Our Volunteer Tourism program, initially developed in Baja, Mexico, has also proven highly beneficial in Bocas del Toro, supporting indigenous communities with free dental care, medical programs, and economic growth through partnerships with local businesses, hotels, restaurants, dive shops, and small organizations.

We would love for you to join us next May and June to visit the reefs, participate in tree planting, and engage in meaningful community projects.

The 200-Foot Rotary Wheel Reef System

At the heart of Rotary Reefs 2.0 is an innovative 200-foot reef structure designed in the shape of a Rotary Wheel—a network of interconnected wheels and proven reef structures that will create marine habitats, enhance coral growth, and support fish breeding.
