Coral lagoons are sheltered bodies of water found within or adjacent to coral ecosystems, offering unique and productive habitats. They are typically quieter than the open ocean, with varying depths and complexities depending on the type of reef and local sea floor. Coral lagoons are crucial for the health and biodiversity of reef ecosystems. They can be found within atolls (ring-shaped reefs), between barrier reefs and shorelines, or near fringing reefs (coral reef formation).
