Artificial off shore coral reef

Does a coral reef around the seashore sound like a regular thing? What if we tell you that the coral reef is off-shore and it’s a man-made one? Yes, that’s right! The coral reef on the lighthouse beach is an artificial one and is built to protect the flora and fauna and to reduce the erosion level on the shore. Surfing is allowed as the reef is built in such a way that it doesn’t harm any living organisms under water. So, next time you are in Kovalam, don’t forget to check out this man-made wonder.
