Palladium Opens Seagrass Conservation Lab in Ibiza

Palladium Hotel Group has opened a marine conservation lab at the Grand Palladium Select Palace Ibiza, where guests can visit an on-resort seagrass nursery and join dives to observe conservation work, aiming to raise awareness of the island's marine ecosystem. The article notes coastal hotels rely on white sand and clear water to attract guests; white sand is calcium carbonate from coral, while seagrass filters sediment and acts as a carbon sink storing up to 18% of oceanic carbon. The conservation work is funded by its foundation rather than the operating budget.
