Sheraton Maldives champions sustainable tourism with coral restoration program
Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa recently had the honour of hosting the ownership team from KSL Capital Partners, which included Tina Yu (Partner), Filippo Stercoli (Senior Associate), and Sean Harrison (Associate General Counsel). During their visit, the KSL team engaged with the resort’s senior management for an immersive exploration of sustainability initiatives and conservation efforts. A highlight of this exceptional visit was the ceremonial planting of the 700th coral frame in the resort’s thriving coral garden, marking a significant milestone that underscores the resort’s unwavering collaboration with Reefscapers, an independent marine consultation company dedicated to restoring coral reefs in the Maldives and worldwide. This prestigious partnership has further strengthened Sheraton Maldives’ commitment to marine conservation through the Adopt a Coral program, which plays a pivotal role in advancing reef restoration.
Launched in early 2020, the Adopt a Coral program offers guests exclusive, hands-on activities that immerse them in the conservation of marine life. Under the expert guidance of Katelyn Hegarty-Kelly, a dedicated marine biologist from Reefscapers, the KSL team participated in this noble endeavour by planting the coral frame, contributing to the restoration of the vibrant underwater ecosystem that surrounds the island sanctuary. Guests at Sheraton Maldives are invited to adopt a coral and plant coral fragments, which are then meticulously placed in the crystalline waters by the marine biologist.
Each coral frame is carefully nurtured and monitored, with biannual updates provided by the marine team to keep guests informed of the coral’s progress. This initiative exemplifies Sheraton Maldives’ enduring dedication to sustainable tourism and marine conservation. In partnership with Reefscapers, the resort remains steadfast in its mission to protect and rejuvenate the marine environment, offering guests a meaningful opportunity to contribute to the health of the reefs and deepen their appreciation for coral and marine conservation.
