Meridian Adventure Dive Resort in Raja Ampat has exciting news to share – they are a Green Fins Digital Member!
What is Green Fins?
Green Fins is a proven conservation management approach – implemented internationally by The Reef-World Foundation and the UN Environment Programme – which leads to a measurable reduction in the negative environmental impacts associated with marine tourism. It aims to protect coral reefs through environmentally friendly guidelines promoting sustainable diving and snorkelling. It provides the only internationally recognised environmental standards for marine tourism and its robust assessment system measures compliance.
Green Fins encourages and empowers divers, snorkellers, the diving industry and coastal communities to reduce the pressures on coral reefs by offering marine tourism companies practical, low-cost alternatives to harmful practices – such as anchoring, fish feeding and chemical pollution – as well as providing strategic training, support and resources. By reducing the local direct and indirect pressures tourism puts on coral reefs, it helps make corals healthier and more resilient to other stresses such as the effects of climate change.
We are proud to be an eco-conscious resort, but we need your understanding and help to preserve our beautiful Raja Ampat ocean. We actively choose to live-by and dive-by our Green Star and Green Fins ratings. By choosing to dive with Meridian Adventure Dive Resort, we kindly ask that you adhere to the Green Fins Icons for every dive.
