Ocean

A little bit of Mangrove Restoration took place today at Sandy Bay Beach, Roatan, Honduras! Why is this important? Mangroves protect coastal communities from erosion, improve water quality, and protects the ocean by mitigate affects of climate change as they store reserves of carbon dioxide. 

Today we planted 20 mangrove saplings on the shore line in front of Tranquil Seas Lodge. We will give the plants 2 weeks to grow a little more and if there are signs of growth, we will continue to plant more! 🌳🌊🌞

Here is a video of some of the mangroves we planted today. They are about 2+ feet away from each other.
