Rixos Bab Al Bahr, an all-inclusive resort on Al Marjan Island, has earned the prestigious Blue Flag Certification, making it the first hotel on Al Marjan Island and the second in Ras Al Khaimah to be recognised for its commitment to environmental excellence.

Awarded by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE), the Blue Flag is an internationally recognised accolade granted to beaches and marinas that meet stringent standards of water quality, environmental education, safety, and sustainability.

This accomplishment, Rixos Bab Al Bahr said, reflects its dedication to upholding the highest environmental standards and providing guests with a clean, safe, and eco-friendly environment.

“We are incredibly proud to be the first resort on Al Marjan Island to receive the Blue Flag certification,” said Ahmed Elnawawy, General Manager of Rixos Bab Al Bahr.

“This award reinforces our commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship.

“We aim to offer our guests an exceptional experience, ensuring not only top-notch hospitality but also a safe and eco-conscious environment that promotes awareness of our surrounding natural beauty.”

The Blue Flag Certification focuses on connecting visitors with their environment and encouraging sustainable practices through environmental education activities.

Rixos Bab Al Bahr will implement various environmental education initiatives, ensuring guests can learn about local biodiversity and ecosystems.

The certification guarantees that the resort adheres to the highest standards for clean water, beach safety, and environmental awareness.

The Blue Flag is a voluntary programme administered in the UAE by Enviro Care, the national operator for the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE).

With more than 5,000 beaches and marinas in 51 countries worldwide awarded this prestigious certification, the Blue Flag symbolises a global commitment to sustainability and environmental protection. – TradeArabia News Service
