A few times a year I travel over to some reefs off the Northern Bahamas to check out these fields of A. Palmata. It's awesome to be able to see these ancient corals still thriving in places. The overall size, and unique structure makes this a favorite of mine, though it's not a "pretty" coral in terms of color.

Here's a few photos of some beautiful colonies.
