Pacific Whale Foundation
The educational 9-by-24-inch guide tells how to identify more than 20 commonly seen coral and fish species, the conditions required for coral reefs to live and thrive, and how coral reefs have shaped our beaches and shorelines.
The guide was written and designed by the Pacific Whale Foundation. The project was funded through an agreement with the United States Department of Interior and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
For a copy, call the foundation on Maui, at 1-(808)-879-8860.
