Siyam Iru Fushi recently celebrated its annual Eco Week - Celebrating Our Planet, a vibrant initiative dedicated to environmental awareness and sustainability. Guests and team members came together to honor World Reef Awareness Day, World Environment Day, and World Ocean Day through a series of immersive and inspiring activities.
The week kicked off with a guided conservation snorkelling tour and reef clean-up led by our resident Marine Biologist, giving guests a chance to explore our vibrant house reef while contributing to its preservation. On World Environment Day, guests participated in a meaningful tree-planting session and enjoyed a nature walk through the island’s lush tropical paths.
World Ocean Day featured hands-on coral planting at Waters Edge Beach, encouraging guests to participate in our ongoing efforts to restore the reef. In the evening, guests gathered under the stars for an open-air screening of an inspiring documentary about coral reefs, deepening their understanding of marine ecosystems and the urgent need for conservation. The day concluded with a magical night snorkelling adventure, revealing the hidden beauty of the reef after dark.
Eco Week reflected Iru Fushi’s ongoing commitment to sustainability through its Sun Siyam Cares initiative, offering memorable and meaningful experiences that encourage guests to connect with nature and protect our planet.
As part of our ongoing sustainability efforts the resort has introduced coral restoration projects, regular reef clean-ups, island-wide tree planting initiatives, and educational experiences for its guests. This year, the resort has 126 trees planted and 18 coral frames installed in the lagoon. We also reduced the use of single-use plastics by switching to glass water bottles and establishing an in-house bottling plant. Community engagement includes support for local schools and hosting environmental awareness sessions, reflecting the resort’s commitment to both nature and people.

The Sun Siyam Cares programme focuses on reducing energy and water use, minimizing plastic waste, supporting local communities, and investing in renewable energy.
