Protecting Paradise, One Reef at a Time

At Dany Island, we believe that true luxury means protecting the beauty that surrounds us. That’s why we’ve dedicated a large part of the island and its surrounding waters to conservation.

Dany Island is located within the government-declared Dany Island Spectacular Coral Reefs Community Conservation Area, established to protect the island’s coral reefs, tropical fish and endangered marine life.

Dany Island is a natural nesting site for both Hawksbill and Green Sea turtles. Guests are often lucky enough to witness these majestic creatures in the wild – swimming, feeding or nesting around the island.

What We’re Doing:

  • Protecting our surrounding reef from fishing, pollution and anchoring
  • Hosting only a limited number of guests at a time to reduce impact
  • Using solar energy, rainwater systems, and low-impact building materials
  • Having a backup generator that runs on virgin coconut oil
  • Collaborating with local communities to protect marine biodiversity

How You Can Help:

  • Follow our reef and turtle safety guidelines
  • Share your experience to raise awareness
  • Visit us on one of our day tours or overnight stays
  • Respect the land, the sea, and the people who care for it

Conservation Area:

  • Dany Island has experienced an influx of fish and coral growth recently
  • Dany Island is an important nesting site for Green Sea and Hawksbill turtles and has recorded a significant increase in turtle activity, including 1,600 turtles hatched on Dany Island during one eight-month period.

  • Guests with Dany Island bookings enter the conservation area on registered vessels. For the protection of the marine ecosystem, other people and vessels are prohibited from entering the Dany Island reefs which are outlined in the map below and are subject to police-issued penalties for breaches:

 

 

Together, we’re building a model for sustainable tourism — where protecting nature isn’t just a side note, it’s the main reason we’re here.
