Best Answer

Coral reefs are beneficial to all areas where they are found. They provide a home for many marine creatures. They also act as storm breakers and lighten the blow of tropical storms or large waves. Fishing could be considered a benefit to Florida from coral reefs, but bad for reefs because fishing damages the ecosystem.
