Hilton Abu Dhabi has launched a beach reclamation eco-project, which will extend the hotel’s beachfront on the corniche by more than 1400 square metres while causing minimal damage to the environment.
The coastal eco-project will be staged in two phases so guests can continue using the Hiltonia Beach Club facilities.
The reclamation project will create an underwater sea wall, which will be formed using custom-designed sand filled geo textile tubes, eco-engineered to replicate natural environments for local marine life to inhabit.
Mimicing a natural fringing reef, the sea wall will also allow waves to break offshore to protect the beachfront from erosion.
