Surrounded by so much natural beauty, miles of golden beaches and transparent waters teaming with life - which it is essential to preserve, Bahia Mar Hotel, based in Vilanculos, Mozambique, is doing its part. From reducing the purchase of ‘single use’ and other plastics to a committed recycling policy, the hotel is an active protagonist in the conservation of this unique area.
Believing community education can be pivotal to preservation, Bahia Mar have brought plastics artist Xico Gaivota from Portugal to inspire and educate the villagers. This special man, who is creating masterpieces from plastic which he finds on the beach, shared both his commitment to the environment and his skill with local people, encouraging the collection and recycling of the debris which washes up on the beaches into saleable art work.
Once a full time fisherman, now an environmental activist, Xico Gaivota spent a month sharing his talent at Bahia Mar culminating with an exhibition of his unique pieces during the months of August and September.
