Crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and rolling over them with a rolling pin.
In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs with the melted coconut oil and mix until well combined.
Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan, ensuring it is even and compact. Place in the refrigerator to set while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk yogurt, coconut cream, maple syrup, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and well combined.
In a small saucepan, combine the water and agar-agar powder. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 3-5 minutes until the agar-agar is completely dissolved and the mixture has thickened slightly.
Allow the agar-agar mixture to cool slightly, but not to set, then slowly pour it into the yogurt mixture, stirring continuously to prevent lumps.
Pour the filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or until completely set and firm.
Before serving, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and top with fresh berries of your choice.
Slice and serve the cheesecake chilled for the best texture and flavor.
