The start of the school holidays is definitely our favorite time of the year, mainly because we get the kids to spend a full day with us at work rather than just a short visit! This season, we’ve leveled up our Junior Research Team scheme with some amazing new topics. As part of our Eco-School program, we hosted six local kids for an action-packed day of hands-on training at our Marine Conservation Center, where they jumped straight into learning firsthand about the marine ecosystems of the Red Sea and the serious threats our oceans face, like coral bleaching and marine debris.

One of the absolute coolest parts of the day was using the Turtle Trunk, an innovative tool developed by the Inwater Research Group. The kids stepped into the shoes of real marine biologists, assessing simulated sea turtle injuries and making tough, critical decisions on whether to rehabilitate or release them.

The excitement kept rolling as they collected water samples, discovered hidden microorganisms under the microscope, and played educational games that made big science incredibly fun. A massive thank you to the KarmSolar team for showing the kids around their solar power plant at Wadi Sabarah Lodge! It was awesome to connect ocean conservation with clean energy, especially since we are so proud to use this fantastic, sustainable project ourselves.

We wrapped up the day snorkeling on our house reef, and the kids completely blew us away with their swimming confidence and brilliant fish ID skills! We couldn't be prouder of what they achieved. The future of Red Sea conservation looks incredibly bright knowing these passionate little ones are growing up with the love and determination to protect it!

Two years in a row! We are incredibly honored to receive the PADI Pillars of Change Award for Outstanding Contribution to Ocean Conservation once again. This time as a direct tribute to the work of our PADI Eco Center in the Red Sea. This isn't just an award; it is a testament to the dedication of our team and the community that drives our mission forward.

This recognition is especially meaningful as it coincides with PADI’s 60th Anniversary. Receiving this honor while the global diving community is gathered together perfectly highlights the strength of our collective purpose. We want to extend our sincere gratitude to our colleagues at fellow PADI Dive Centers and the members who have supported us. Your camaraderie proves that we are truly stronger as one global family.

We owe a profound debt of gratitude to PADI and the PADI AWARE Foundation for their unwavering mentorship and belief in our vision. Most importantly, we thank our community of citizen scientists, students, and the team for fueling this journey. Together, we are setting a new standard for sustainable marine tourism. Not just as a goal, but as a blueprint to secure the long-term resilience and vitality of the Red Sea.
