In honour of World Mangrove Day, Sheraton Fiji Golf & Beach Resort and Sheraton Denarau Villas rallied 50 associates to plant over 200 mangrove seedlings at the Denarau Golf & Racquet Club 18-hole championship course, reinforcing their commitment to sustainability and the protection of Fiji’s coastal ecosystems.
The event is part of the resorts’ Sustainable Mangrove Planting Program, launched in August 2024. To date, the program has seen 627 saplings planted, with quarterly planting initiatives planned. Set on a 25-acre beachfront property, the resort integrates sustainability throughout its operations with 68% of the land dedicated to landscaped greens, solar-powered systems, and a comprehensive Environmental Management System (EMS). Sustainability is embedded in the team culture, with training for all new hires and 29 Sustainability Champions leading green initiatives across the property. World Mangrove Day
