The Bahamas is 95 % ocean, and our way of life depends on the health of our marine environment. BREEF works to protect, restore, and celebrate the ocean that defines us as island people.

Protecting
the Ocean
That Sustains Us

For more than 30 years the Bahamas Reef Environment Educational Foundation (BREEF) has been empowering Bahamians, especially young people, to understand, explore and protect our marine ecosystems. Through hands‑on education, reef restoration and community partnerships, BREEF builds a more resilient and ocean‑literate Bahamas.
