Enjoy the Romance of Coral Beach

Coral Beach is one of the most beautiful relics of the ancient giant coral reef that once lived off the eastern shores of Oplayn. Hundreds of disc coral skeletons reach out over the beach, providing shade for walkers who pass beneath. The neolithic mukash who live on the corals are friendly and often invite travellers to climb up and chat, bask in the sunshine, partake of food and drink, or just gaze out over the blue beauty of the sparkling ocean.

A few coral arenas remain empty and are easy to reach, if all a weary visitor wants is peace and quiet.

For the more wildlife-minded, the beach offers a dazzling assortment of opportunities:

• Aquatic pinno' grath and sammamimoss hunt in the waters.
• Brightly-coloured tushma arrive seasonally to sun themselves on the sand and lay their eggs.
• The higher corals offer excellent viewpoints from which to look down to the water for an aerial view of iskoss.
• Countless species of sagra and many-many live in the shallows.
• Colonies of predaxis live along the shores and can be watched in safety from a distance.
• Tannam-fago breed seasonally a short distance away from our holiday camp, and we offer day-trips to observe their nest-building routine.

In addition to the above fauna, the following flora grow here:

• Grab-fruits, the fruits of which will be served with breakfast throughout your stay, and which our more energetic visitors are welcome to accompany the mukash to harvest
• Forests of large girass plants, coverta, and poteeri, which we will lead a scuba-dive to visit. Swimming the coverta meadows, which offer hiding spaces for sagra and many-many, will take up much of this time
• Pirra-mid plants and their fruits, which will also feature among the catering options
• Blue-circle flowers, a source of great cultural pride for our mukash hosts
• Friendship reeds, which provides the mukash with a frequent, convenient, and symbolic snack

History Of This Location

The tropical waters of Kaleida have harboured corals for millennia. Over time a particularly large species of table coral [Author: name to be potentially retconned] died and left broad, flat, red, disc-shaped skeletons. Those skeletons were large enough to survive to the current day, even when the shift of the tectonic places pushed their beds above ground.

In the current day they form a unique habitat for neolithics. Species who originally lived as burrowing species particularly like the table corals, as they overlap, creating sheltered areas that the neolithics make their homes in.
