This document summarizes a pilot project to re-engineer coral reefs off the coast of Grenada for coastal protection. The project involved (1) modeling wave dynamics and sea level rise scenarios, (2) designing and constructing pilot submerged breakwater structures made of quarry stone and concrete blocks with relocated corals, and (3) monitoring the structures to evaluate their ability to attenuate waves and reduce coastal flooding, with the goal of demonstrating the role of coral reefs in coastal protection. Over 1,500 person-hours and $7,000 per meter were required to construct the 30-meter pilot structures, which were then monitored to evaluate lessons learned for improving coastal resilience through similar nature-based solutions.
