Great job, everyone! Special thanks to the hotel guests who helped with this release. Together, we are making a difference!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Shark Nursery & Education Project<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Together with JW Marriott Khao Lak Resort & Spa<\/a>, OFA operates a shark nursery, where baby bamboo sharks are hatched and cared for until they are ready to be reintroduced into their natural habitat. Adjacent to the nursery, guests of the hotel can enjoy a brief presentation which outlines the shark nursery project and the vital role bamboo sharks play in Thailand’s marine ecosystem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We hold shark release events whenever the baby bamboo sharks reach maturity, with the hotel guests invited to contribute to the important work of replenishing the bamboo shark population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’d like to be a part of the next shark release event, be sure to follow our Facebook page, and subscribe to our newsletter. To make a difference, you can make a donation<\/a> or contribute against your carbon footprint to earn your BLUEPASS<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
