The overriding consideration at Soma Bay has been to minimize the impact of tourism development on the site's ecology. In all cases the objective has been to preserve and protect the ecology of the peninsula, and to enforce a policy of zero discharge into the sea.
Soma Bay's state-of-the-art infrastructure assures the community's requirements in electricity, potable water and sewage treatment based on environmentally friendly technology designed and conceived to ensure reliability of supply.
The facilities are on a site far removed from the resorts, housing, sports and entertainment facilities at Soma Bay.
The entire resort is connected to the outside world by its own dedicated fiber-optic cable, and a central satellite network provides both comprehensive TV coverage and fast Internet access.
Recycling of waste waters, the use of salt tolerant grass, and solid waste management, are only a few of the practices which make Soma Bay a model for environmentally friendly tourism development.
