Coral reef awareness
Located on the beachfront, facing the largest coral barrier reef in Réunion Island, Ness by D-Ocean is both a privileged observer of this natural treasure and an advocate for its preservation.
In partnership with the Réunion Marine Reserve, we remind you of some essential actions to protect the lagoon:
- Explore without stepping: Corals are fragile living beings. Avoid stepping on them to prevent damage.
- Observe without disturbing: Watch marine life from a distance and do not feed the animals.
- Play without taking: Sand and shells are part of the ecosystem. Leave them where they belong to maintain their natural role.
- Enjoy without polluting: Pick up your waste and dispose of it in designated bins.
Together, let’s protect this natural wonder so that future generations can also marvel at its beauty.
Ness by D-Ocean is certified with the European Ecolabel (FR/051/671), an official recognition of our commitment to more responsible and environmentally respectful tourism.
