Through this activation, students not only deepened their understanding of the diverse marine ecosystems but also developed a heightened sense of environmental stewardship, recognising the vital importance of marine conservation. This initiative aligns with Aldar Education’s overarching goal of nurturing responsible global citizens and resonates with Yas American Academy’s commitment to providing a holistic and high-quality education that extends beyond the confines of a traditional classroom.”
    Additionally, SeaWorld Abu Dhabi has distributed educational puzzles to participating students.ADVERTISEMENTAs part of SeaWorld Abu Dhabi’s aim to spread the love and care for marine life across people of all ages, the submersible experience is designed to inspire, educate and build anticipation for the oceanic adventure that guests can experience at the region’s first Marine Life Theme Park.        For more information on SeaWorld Abu Dhabi, please visit www.seaworldabudhabi.com.

    Exploring the Wonders of Wildlife at the Belize Zoo

    Nestled in the heart of Central America, Belize is a country known for its stunning natural beauty and rich biodiversity. Among the many treasures this nation has to offer, the Belize Zoo stands out as a testament to its commitment to wildlife conservation and education. Established in 1983, this unique zoo has evolved into a haven for native species, providing visitors with an unparalleled opportunity to witness the incredible diversity of Belizean wildlife up close.
    A Home for Native Species:
    Unlike traditional zoos that feature animals from around the world, the Belize Zoo focuses exclusively on the native wildlife of Belize. The zoo was originally conceived as a sanctuary for animals rescued from various situations, such as injuries, orphanhood, or illegal captivity. Today, it serves as a refuge for these animals, offering a safe and natural environment that closely mimics their native habitats.

    Visitors to the Belize Zoo can expect to encounter a fascinating array of indigenous species, including jaguars, tapirs, howler monkeys, ocelots, and an impressive variety of exotic birds. Each enclosure is carefully designed to provide a comfortable and enriching space for the animals, emphasizing the importance of conservation and environmental stewardship.ADVERTISEMENTConservation and Education:
    At the heart of the Belize Zoo’s mission is the commitment to wildlife conservation and education. The zoo actively engages in conservation efforts, collaborating with local and international organizations to protect endangered species and their habitats. Through various programs and initiatives, the zoo seeks to raise awareness about the challenges faced by Belizean wildlife and inspire visitors to become advocates for conservation.
    Educational programs at the Belize Zoo cater to visitors of all ages, offering guided tours, interactive exhibits, and informative presentations. The knowledgeable staff, comprised of passionate conservationists and educators, strive to instill a sense of appreciation for Belize’s unique biodiversity, fostering a connection between visitors and the natural world.

    A Unique Experience for Visitors:
    One of the standout features of the Belize Zoo is its commitment to providing a unique and immersive experience for visitors. Unlike larger, more commercialized zoos, the Belize Zoo offers a more intimate setting, allowing guests to connect with the animals on a personal level. The guided tours are designed to be informative, engaging, and environmentally conscious, ensuring that visitors leave with not only a sense of wonder but also a deeper understanding of the importance of wildlife conservation.

    The Belize Zoo stands as a shining example of what a dedicated commitment to conservation and education can achieve. By focusing on native species and providing a sanctuary for animals in need, this incredible zoo has become a beacon for wildlife enthusiasts, educators, and anyone seeking a deeper connection with nature. As visitors explore the lush grounds and encounter Belize’s diverse fauna, they not only witness the wonders of the country’s wildlife but also contribute to the vital mission of protecting and preserving these extraordinary creatures for future generations. The Belize Zoo is more than a destination; it’s a testament to the power of compassion, education, and the enduring beauty of Belize’s natural heritage.

    The Cabot Collection, developer and operator of luxury resort and residential golf destinations, announces the grand opening of Cabot Saint Lucia, situated along one-and-a-half miles of breathtaking coastline with striking views of the Caribbean Sea.Set across one of the most dramatic sites ever selected for golf, Cabot Saint Lucia offers an unparalleled Caribbean golf experience, magnificent real estate opportunities and unique amenities on a spectacular 375-acre peninsula at the northern tip of Saint Lucia.
    With cooling sea breezes, white sand beaches and exquisite ocean views from every corner of the site, Cabot Saint Lucia offers residents and guests exclusive access to amenities and experiences curated specifically for the destination. At the heart of the sprawling property lies Point Hardy Golf Club, featuring a show-stopping 18-hole Coore & Crenshaw golf course. In addition, comfort stations, a food and beverage experience, a retail shop and sports courts are currently available onsite. Additional amenities to follow include a beach club and restaurant, expansive clubhouse, luxury residences and world-class wellness and fitness facilities.
    “When I first saw the land that would become Cabot Saint Lucia, I knew it was the perfect canvas to create something truly awe-inspiring,” said Ben Cowan-Dewar, CEO and Co-founder of Cabot. “Opening Cabot Saint Lucia and Point Hardy Golf Club has been a dream come true, and I am honoured to work alongside the dedicated, creative and talented team whose vision and hard work brought us here today.”
    Golf:Perched above the Atlantic Ocean and designed to blend seamlessly with the unique topography of the magnificent Saint Lucian landscape, Point Hardy Golf Club is the crown jewel of the site. Renowned golf course architects Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw’s first Caribbean course is a masterpiece, winding through lush terrain, over rocky cliffs jutting into the ocean, and along meandering valleys and sandy beaches. With nine holes playing along the ocean and every hole showcasing mesmerizing views, the course capitalizes on natural beauty and playability at every turn. The closing stretch at Point Hardy embodies the pinnacle of drama: heroic holes in a jaw-dropping setting, with forced carries over jagged rocks and crashing waves on each of the final four holes. Special attention was placed on preserving the local habitat by transplanting existing cacti and native grasses.
    Recently featured as the cover star of GOLF Magazine’s November/December issue, the course debuted as No. 76 in GOLF Magazine’s coveted “Top 100 Courses in the World’’ ranking. Point Hardy Golf Club is the first course in Saint Lucia to make the prestigious list and the highest ranked original design among the new courses on the list.ADVERTISEMENT“It’s very possible that Cabot Saint Lucia is the most visually stunning piece of land we have ever worked with,” said Bill Coore, co-principal of Coore & Crenshaw. “It was a privilege to work with the Cabot team on this one-of-a-kind site, and I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished. This project was truly a labor of love, and the initial feedback on this enchanting property as one of the world’s most sought-after golf destinations is very special to Ben and me.”

The landscape features tropical hillsides, sweeping meadows and coastal promontories along with striking elevation changes. Homes hug the natural contours of the land, with building materials chosen for their organic style and ecological sensitivity. Designed to embrace the spectacular natural scenery, open-concept interiors are bright and breezy, complemented by plentiful outdoor living spaces to enjoy the peaceful Caribbean environment year-round.
    To date, Cabot Saint Lucia has sold over $160 million in real estate sales, swiftly selling out of its Phase One offerings and much of Phase Two, priced from $2 million to $11 million. Cabot recently unveiled its latest real estate for sale, the four-bedroom Horizon Villas. The move-in ready residences stand perfectly positioned atop one of the site’s highest points at the heart of the property, with stunning views of Cas en Bas Bay and the majestic topography of the Saint Lucian coastline. With three bedrooms in the center of each villa and a fourth bedroom located in a private, detached casita, the experience seamlessly blends indoor-outdoor living and provides the perfect balance of connection and privacy. The main living space features an open concept kitchen, media room, living and dining area that spills out to an expansive patio featuring an outdoor lounge, infinity-edge plunge pool and picturesque views. Pricing will begin at $5.6 million USD and the first of the Horizon Villas is estimated for completion in December 2025.
    Amenities:Fitness amenities cater to family members of all ages and include two meticulously maintained Har-Tru tennis courts, two clay tennis courts, four pickleball courts, padel courts and basketball courts. The beach experience promises a delightful treat with a wood-fired pizza truck curated by Cabot’s Michelin starred Executive Chef Esther Ha, offering a menu of local, ocean-inspired culinary creations. Future amenities such as the Beach Club will include a series of restaurants and lounges for toes-in-the sand, all-day dining, as well as a pool, cabanas and hammocks. 
    The expansive clubhouse will span three levels and feature breathtaking panoramic views. The first level will include a welcoming bar with a terrace to unwind and enjoy drinks while taking in the serene surroundings, while the second level will be home to well-appointed men’s and women’s changing rooms and a club restaurant.

Plans for the wellness center and spa include hydro circuits, massage therapy and an array of fitness offerings and locally inspired spa treatments. The facilities will also feature a full-length lap pool and state-of-the-art gym.
    Activities:On-island adventures include hiking through the rainforest and to the iconic Pitons, birdwatching, horseback riding and embarking on unique excursions, including a mud bath, a volcano, a rum distillery tour, a chef-attended BBQ experience and a chocolate tasting tour. The Cabot Explorers program can design bespoke trips and exhilarating wind and wave adventures including snorkeling, deep-sea fishing trips, Hobie Cats, scuba certification, sailing lessons, kitesurfing, whale watching, kids’ camps and trips to neighboring islands.
