Bawe Island by The Cocoon Collection has announced the establishment of a new marine reserve in collaboration with the Zanzibar government.
“Bawe Island is the realisation of a dream – a place where luxury and sustainability meet,” said Attilio Azzola, Founder and Corporate Sales Manager of The Cocoon Collection.
In addition to the marine reserve, Bawe Island is home to Zanzibar’s largest solar plant and uses advanced desalination and wastewater recycling systems. The initiative includes construction of modern housing with private boat docks for local fishermen who will be able to fish in authorised offshore areas to promote economic sustainability and preserve local traditions.
Located 15 minutes by boat from Stone Town, Bawe Island features 70 luxury villas – each with private pools, gardens and personalised butler services.
