Coral reefs are typically divided into several water zones based on depth and light availability. The sublittoral zone is where most coral growth occurs, extending from the low tide mark to about 60 meters deep, while the intertidal zone is the area exposed to air at low tide. The mesophotic zone lies below the sublittoral zone, reaching depths of about 60 to 150 meters, where light diminishes but some corals can still survive. Finally, the deep-sea zone includes depths beyond 150 meters, where light is scarce, and coral presence is minimal.
