The Mesoamerican Reef, the second-largest barrier reef system in the world, includes the coral reefs off the coast of Cozumel. What happens in Cozumel might have an impact on coral reefs and communities in other adjacent nations.
Coral Reef is doing an amazing effort to maintain the health of the Cozumel natural environment and particularly the preservation of coral reefs.
