Coral reefs have gone from vibrant health to decline, disease and destruction. Alarmed by the warning signs, 2 Fish Behaviourists set out on a mission: To find 'The Perfect Reef', before it's too late.
Globally leading Scientists provide definition and direction: A journey is launched, to the heart of the Caribbean.
Complex tunnels, forgotten shipwrecks and coral encrusted caves; how it is formed, why it is being destroyed, its importance to our planet and the tiny animal that builds it all: This is a dream search for ‘The Perfect Reef’, inspired by their imminent disappearance.
Is there a Perfect Reef? Or is it already too late?

The thrilling first Episode of the Internationally Acclaimed, Multiple Award Winning Underwater Documentary Film Series, 'The Reef'.
Screening to the British Ambassador and hundreds of VIP guests, 'The Perfect Reef' premiered at the International Wildlife Film Festival Estonia in 2004, which followed by questions, interviews, photos, full page Newspaper Articles and press around the globe.
With simultaneous timing, on the other side of the world, 'The Perfect Reef' was Awarded '1st Prize, Best Film' at the prestigious Montana CINE Film Festival USA and the series went rapidly on to become an epic of underwater filmmaking.
We loved the film! I now understand why Film Festivals have been throwing prizes at you. You managed to coach and edit we scientists so well that we actually sounded intelligible - you're very talented directors! Keep me up to date on the progress of your filming endeavours - I expect to be seeing fascinating projects and products from you for a long time.
- Dr. Hank Trapido-Rosenthal, Research Scientist, Hawaii
"Honestly some of the most interesting work I've seen in a while (and I get through a fair few films!)!"...
- Andrew Raine, Editor, Bermuda Sun Newspaper
"Stunning underwater shots. Great macro photography. Cinematography was best part of film. Underwater footage was phenomenal".
