Abstract

Extreme low tides that expose corals to air are damaging for coral reefs. The best developed coral reef of the continental Colombian Pacific was exposed at spring tide during consecutive days in 2019. Consumer-grade drone imagery revealed the extent of the area affected. These corals have high conservation and research value.
