Looks like a broken piece of heavily eroded limestone reef to me. So, not coral as such, but essentially rock formed from the skeletons of corals and calcium carbonate secreting algae.
The holes are likely from boring bivalves, one of which is still present. There are also patches of fenestrate bryozoan mats on it (the white mesh-like material).

It is natural, called a hagstone. Most often found on beach areas, if you look where it was found you may find more.

Here is picture of a bunch of them.

My wife was a penpal, after 1.5 years of corresponding I decided I wanted to meet her in person. Internet in '95 wasn't like today, very little email.

I met mine in a university accounting night class 38 yrs ago.
Friends for 3 yrs and 35 yrs together.
In 10 days we've been hitched for 20 yrs of those.
Hot frying pan-now add oil & water to it, something is always spitting. :laughing7:
