Protecting Paradise: Olivia’s Partnership with Coral.org
At Olivia, we believe in traveling with purpose—exploring the world while working to protect its beauty for future generations. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our partnership with Coral Reef Alliance (CORAL) as part of our 35th Anniversary Caribbean Cruise!
For over 30 years, CORAL has been a global leader in reef conservation, working to protect these fragile ecosystems through science, community-driven solutions, and sustainable tourism. Their mission aligns perfectly with Olivia Travel’s commitment to environmental responsibility—because we don’t just love exploring the ocean, we love protecting it.
Why Coral Reefs Matter
Coral reefs cover less than 1% of the ocean floor, yet they support 25% of all marine life. These vibrant underwater cities provide food, coastal protection, and even medicine—but they’re disappearing at an alarming rate due to climate change, pollution, and unsustainable practices.
The good news? There’s hope. With the right conservation efforts, reefs can recover and thrive. That’s where CORAL’s work comes in—and where Olivia travelers can make a real difference.
Why This Partnership Matters
Coral reefs aren’t just stunning to look at; they play a crucial role in keeping our planet healthy. They provide food and shelter for marine species, protect coastlines from storms, and support the livelihoods of millions of people. But with over 50% of reefs lost in the last 30 years, the time to act is now.
Through this partnership, Olivia is:
- Supporting CORAL’s conservation programs with a financial contribution.
- Raising awareness about how small changes can make a big impact.
- Educating our travelers on sustainable tourism practices.

Making an Impact—Together
Travel has the power to inspire change, and we believe that the Olivia community is uniquely positioned to lead by example. Here’s how you can be part of the movement:
💙 Be a mindful traveler. When snorkeling or diving, look but don’t touch—coral is alive and fragile!
💙 Choose reef-safe sunscreen. Some sunscreens contain chemicals that harm marine life—opt for mineral-based options instead.
💙 Reduce plastic waste. Bring reusable water bottles, say no to plastic straws, and pack eco-friendly toiletries.
💙 Support organizations like CORAL. Donations, advocacy, and spreading the word all help protect these vital ecosystems.
By making small but meaningful changes, we can help preserve the ocean for generations of Olivia travelers to come.
