Elfin Cove Resort is proud to announce our partnership with Fire Island Conservation, in an effort to help spread awareness of wildlife conservation.

Their Story:

“Several years ago, Ilha do Fogo, translating as “island of fire”, was bought, with a dream to build a 5-star resort. Upon visiting the island, the team discovered that it was ravaged by poachers and sadly, the critically endangered hawksbill and endangered green turtles were the main victims of the poaching. The dream of a resort was quickly replaced by the need to protect these imperilled species, and thus, Fire Island Conservation was born.

The eco-tourism and conservation projects gained headway with the purchase of Pebane Beach Lodge, the closest land base to the island. Loggerhead Beach Villa and The Monarch Villa became further extensions of Fire Island Conservation, along with several community projects in Mozambique. We understand that rising socio-economic issues can lead to poaching and harvesting of marine life, however, by empowering locals and providing income opportunities, we are enabling communities to better provide for their families. We continue to strive toward our dream of living sustainably and in harmony with nature.”

Elfin Cove Resort will be supporting our friends at Fire Island Conservation in their conservation efforts. Whether it’s the golden dunes that adorn the Mozambique shoreline or the majestic cliffs and vibrant green spruce trees that grace our Alaskan shores, we recognize the utmost importance of conservation in every corner of the world.
