Red Sea Global has recently launched the first ever seagrass transplantation initiative in the Red Sea

Red Sea worldwide has initiated the first-ever seagrass transplanting campaign in the Red Sea, as part of a worldwide push to safeguard seagrasses. The initiative includes a unique programme aimed at saving and rebuilding seagrass meadows at The Red Sea destination and AMAALA.  This programme, which includes five seagrass species in Al Wajh Lagoon and eight in AMAALA, is a major step towards protecting the Red Sea's varied marine ecology, according to a Monday article from the Saudi Press Agency.

Seagrasses are significant for marine ecosystems worldwide in addition to their local importance. They improve overall water quality, assist clean and filter water, and offer home for endangered species including Halavi Guitarfish, Green Seaturtle, and Dugong (Sea Cow).  As part of its programme, RSG offers training to staff members in its Environment and Sustainability department. A pilot project, which includes saving and transplanting seagrass meadows, was initiated this month.

The preservation of seagrass is only one of the many ways Red Sea Global is striving for a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future. The company is dedicated to responsible development and regenerative tourism.
