Proud to announce! We are continuing Field Studies at the reef in Laguna De Maya and creating the Sculptural Coral Nursery Structures and a research facility at Finca Artonomista, a Sustainable farm 45 East of Havana, Cuba.

A milestone April 6th the Geotherapy Institute Flag flew in Cuba!

Testimonial – from the field.
“Over the past months, our coral restoration project in Cuba has continued moving forward despite major challenges across the island, including extensive blackouts, fuel shortages, and logistical difficulties. 

Working alongside the Marine Research Center (CIM) of the University of Havana, and led locally by Dr. Patricia González and her marine biology team, we continue documenting reef health and developing restoration efforts in Laguna de Maya. 

At a time when coral bleaching is severely affecting reefs across the Caribbean, Laguna de Maya remains a rare refuge of cooler waters where Acropora corals continue to thrive. This unique ecosystem is one of the main reasons we are carrying out this project in Cuba. 

Through science, collaboration, and storytelling, we hope to help protect these reefs and bring greater awareness to their importance and resilience.”
