Plastic-Free Beaches: Our Mission at Fenfushi Island

Plastic-Free Beaches: Our Mission at Fenfushi Island

At #Whaleshark boutique otel, we are committed to reducing single-use plastic on Fenfushi Island. Our goal is to create a cleaner, more beautiful island, ensuring that when you step onto the beach, you feel the soft sand under your feet—not plastic bottles.

We have taken steps by providing refillable water bottles to our guests, and we encourage you to adopt this practice. By doing so, you contribute to keeping the beaches and the island free of harmful waste. Managing garbage, especially plastic, is a significant issue across many islands in the Maldives, and Fenfushi is no exception. Importing plastic only adds to the problem, endangering our environment day by day.

To make a long-lasting impact, we aim to see every household on the island switch to filtered water. This shift would not only help reduce plastic waste but also lead to a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle for the community. Cleaner streets and beaches would be a gift to both locals and visitors, making the island a greener, more eco-friendly destination.

As a responsible visitor, we ask that you bring a refillable water bottle or purchase our holiday pack, which includes a thermo water bottle, a microfibre towel, a reusable bag, and beach-friendly flip-flops. This simple act not only enhances your beach experience but also contributes to a cleaner, more beautiful island.

Join us in our mission to make Fenfushi a plastic-free paradise! Together, we can reduce our environmental footprint and protect this stunning island for future generation
