500 Mangrove trees planted!

Planting mangrove seedlings

Mangroves grow where no other tree grows: in the tidal range of tropical sea coasts and in brackish estuaries. That makes them unique. Because of there extended brace roots, mangroves slow the tidal currents of high and low tide. Furthermore they favour the deposition of mud and silt. The trees protect the coastal regions and form an ideal breeding ground for fish.

 

With the help of our guests, the locals and other resorts, we have planted 500 mangrove trees together, as part of the Anti-Mining Day in Kahuku. The seedlings grow and thrive on an adjacent coastal strip not far from our resort.
