Te Ara o te Ākau is proud to partner with Earth’s Kitchen to promote reef-safe sun protection in the Cook Islands. Through this partnership, every purchase supports healthier choices for our community while helping protect the coral ecosystems we are working to restore.


Earth’s Kitchen sunscreen is a certified natural, mineral-based sunscreen made from 100% natural ingredients. Using zinc to create a protective barrier, it reflects UV rays rather than absorbing into the skin, making it a safer choice for both people and the ocean.


Free from harmful chemicals and reef-damaging ingredients, it is gentle on sensitive skin while providing effective, broad-spectrum protection.



Adopt a coral frame | $500NZD

Vibrant pink and brown coral fragments growing on an underwater metal frame structure in clear tropical ocean water.

Support reef restoration in a hands-on way by sponsoring a coral frame.


Each frame is carefully planted and maintained by our team in the lagoons of the Cook Islands, helping to regenerate damaged reef areas and create new habitats for marine life. Your contribution goes directly toward the materials, monitoring, and care needed to grow healthy coral.


By purchasing a coral frame, you’re not just making a donation, you’re becoming part of the journey to restore and protect our reefs that we all come here to love and enjoy.
