2011-09-28
As the world gets set to celebrate World Tourism Day on the 27th of September, Alila Diwa Goa situated along the Majorda Beach in South Goa, celebrated the spirit by commemorating a ‘Beach Cleaning’ drive on 26th of September.
A large number of hotel staff joined hands to clean up approximately 350 m of the Gonsua beach close to the resort and collected around 33 bags of garbage which was later segregated to be disposed off appropriately.

Alila Diwa Goa is committed to preservation and conservation of the local environment. All the Alila Hotels have embraced Environmentally Sustainable Design (ESD) principles. The resort has been designed around existing forest trees, keeping the beaches clean and conserving the nearby rice paddy fields. This property is also a bird watcher’s paradise as a number of migratory and local birds nest here.
Goa is a preferred holiday destination, hence it becomes very important to preserve its natural rustic appeal that entices tourists from across the globe. And what better way to gear up for the start of the high season than by cleaning and preserving natural surroundings.
