WHAT:          While environmentally-friendly “green burials” are on the rise, the underwater Neptune Memorial Reef goes a step further by actually spawning new life! As the world’s largest man-made reef, the Neptune Memorial Reef is an ecological marvel as well as a unique life-affirming destination for the living and the dearly departed.  A recent Marine study concluded that marine life around the reef has grown 60% in just nine months and included more than 35 species. The reef celebrates life as its structures encourage a thriving marine habitat with coral growth and millions of marine organisms.

Located 3.25 miles off the Miami Coast in 45 feet of crystal clear water, the Neptune Memorial Reef is attracting seasoned divers, marine biologists, ecologists...and those looking for an unparalleled way to memorialize their life.  The site is a stunning recreation of the legendary Lost City that covers over 16 acres of ocean floor and offers room for more than 125,000 remains.  It is a "living city" that acts as a catalyst for marine life to converge and thrive.
