Sea Grass Mapping Project at Pullman Maldives

Surrounded by the crystal-clear waters of the Maldives, guests at Pullman Maldives are invited to join the Sea Grass Mapping Project. Sea grass plays a crucial role in keeping the marine environment healthy. The ecosystem provides shelter for small fish, protects the shores from erosion, and, most importantly, serves as a vital feeding ground for native sea turtles.

As part of its Green Globe Certification sustainability program, the resort is conducting a three-phase Seagrass Mapping & Awareness Project. The project aims to highlight the ecological importance of seagrass meadows, which support marine life and absorb carbon. Commencing in July, Phase 1 involved seagrass identification and mapping with staff and guests. Phase 2, conducted during August and September, includes guest-involved snorkeling tours to collect data and promote awareness. Phase 3, in October, will feature a short documentary showcasing the project's findings. It is hoped that environmental efforts including this program will continue to preserve Maldivian sea life for generations to come.
