Kuramathi Maldives recently hosted a successful Shark Awareness Day, engaging guests in a variety of educational activities and immersive experiences designed to foster appreciation and understanding of sharks and marine conservation.
The day began with a captivating Marine Biology Presentation on Sharks at the Eco Centre from 10 am to 10:40 am. Attendees learned about the vital role sharks play in ocean ecosystems and the importance of their conservation. Following the presentation, guests eagerly participated in a complimentary Shark Awareness Snorkel session on the Kuramathi House Reef, where they observed marine life up close in their natural habitat.
At the Bageecha Kids Club, children enjoyed a variety of interactive activities throughout the day. They started with the creation of an Ocean Sharks Mural, followed by a Shark Craft session at 10 am. The fun continued with Shark Games and Activities at the pool area, offering entertainment while teaching about shark behavior and conservation.
Kuramathi’s commitment to marine conservation was further highlighted by their collaboration with Rasdhu Blue Tide Swimming School for Shark Awareness Day. On July 19th, 2024, young children aged 8 to 13 years benefited from a presentation on sharks, followed by a snorkeling session at Madivaru with Tom, the Sustainability Manager, and Aleem, the Senior Eco Centre Coordinator.
Looking ahead, Kuramathi Maldives remains dedicated to sustainability and extends sincere appreciation to all participants, speakers, and partners who contributed to the success of these meaningful initiatives during Shark Awareness Day.
