In most reefs, the predominant organisms are stony corals, colonial cnidarians that secrete an exoskeleton of calcium carbonate (limestone). , and also because unlike nearby Cabo, La Paz has been untouched by resort development," said John Fair, principal with Cano/Fair, the development company.

Also, Fair said that people are purchasing property at Paraiso del Mar because they know the environment is being protected. For example, only 700 acres of the project's 1,700 acres will be developed.

It is the only project in Mexico to receive such honors.

John Fair and Luis Cano are the founders and developers of Paraiso del Mar. Luis Cano's Gran Vision and GRAVI Construction have provided architectural and construction services to the finest luxury homes and resorts in Los Cabos. John Fair's Fair Enterprises, based out of Denver, Colo., manages more than $300 million of resort, residential and commercial development in the U.S., Mexico and the Caribbean, including development of Esperanza Resort in Cabo San Lucas and the Grace Bay Club in Turks and Caicos.

At the point of the project's completion, there will be 1500 homes and 2000 condos. For more information: www.paradiseofthesea.com
