Denarau Island, Fiji – Port Denarau Marina proudly reaffirms its commitment to environmental conservation and sustainability through its Bronze Sponsorship of the Mamanuca Environment Society (MES). This partnership reflects the marina’s dedication to responsible environmental stewardship and the long-term sustainability of Fiji’s marine and coastal ecosystems.
As the premier marina in the South Pacific, Port Denarau Marina goes beyond providing world-class facilities—it actively champions sustainable tourism, ocean conservation, and community engagement. Through this sponsorship, the marina further strengthens its support for marine conservation, waste management, and environmental education, aligning with its ongoing mission to operate as an environmentally responsible business.
“Sustainability is at the core of our operations at Port Denarau Marina, and we recognize that protecting our marine and coastal environments is essential for the future of our industry and communities,” said Cynthia Rasch, CEO of Port Denarau Marina. “MES has been a driving force in conservation efforts across the Mamanuca region, and we are proud to continue supporting their initiatives, which closely align with our own environmental and corporate social responsibility goals.”
Since its establishment in 2003, MES has played a vital role in preserving and enhancing Fiji’s natural environment through coral reef restoration, waste management programs, marine biodiversity conservation, and educational outreach. Corporate support enables MES to expand its impact, ensuring sustainability remains a priority for resorts, local communities, and tourism operators.
“We are truly honored to be part of this conservation partnership with Port Denarau Marina,” said Marica Vakacola, Project Manager for MES. “They have sponsored and additionally supported us in the past through the Ocean Lovers program, a community-based outreach initiative for younger generations in our villages. This renewed partnership will directly contribute to implementing conservation efforts in island schools and communities while promoting sustainable tourism and livelihoods through environmental protection. Vinaka Vakalevu once again for this generous support.”
