About Us

Batavia Coral Farm collects and grows various varieties of coral from throughout the Abrolhos Island area including LPS (large polyp stoney),  SPS (small polyp stoney) and leather corals. Our Aquaculture license enables us under the West Australian Fisheries Act to collect brood stock for up to 80 species of Corals indigenous to the pristine waters of the Abrohlos Island Area and sustainably grow them on our aquaculture site.

The Houtman Abrohlos Islands is located approximately 60 kilometres due West from Geraldton in the Indian Ocean off the Western Australian Coast and is an A Class Marine Reserve. It is a  chain of 122 Islands  broken up into 3 main groups, Pelsaert Group, Easter Group, Wallabi-North Group.

The Houtman Abrohlos are also famous for the abundance of Marine Life, Coral Reefs and supports a lucrative Rock Lobster Fishery.

Founded by Jerram Hill, Batavia Coral Farm is owned and operated by Blake Tonkin-Sloan & Mark Kalajzich. 

Batavia Coral Farm takes great pride in its collection and farming practices. As custodians of the Abrolhos  we always collect using the utmost ethical and environmentally sustainable methods to minimise impact on this delicate eco-system in which it operates. We have an Offshore site located at the Abrolhos Islands for our Mariculture operations and a state of the art land based holding facility for keeping Corals in a premium healthy condition before they are shipped to our global customers.
