The large-scale coral transplantation has been implemented on the reef flat area at Kuta Beach in Bali Island of Indonesia. The transplantation area is about 1.3 ha and there is no other example like this big scale coral transplantation. The asexual reproduction was applied as transplantation method by fixing coral fragments using nail with cable-tie and the limestone was adopted as artificial substrate for coral transplantation. The major species of coral to be transplanted is Acropora sp. which was taken from the same coral reef area. More than a half year has already passed after the completion of the first coral transplantation and high degree of survival rate with more than 98% could be maintained until now.
