We protect our Neptune grass

With your charter you support "Save Posidonia".

Neptune grass

Neptune grass is responsible for crystal clear water and soft beaches, so we would like to do our bit to protect this valuable underwater plant.

Around Formentera, the Neptune grass is particularly widespread. Seagrass meadows can store twice as much CO2 as an area of rainforest of the same size, for example. It therefore plays an important role in the climate, according to a study by Spanish marine biologist Carlos Duarte. In addition, the Neptune grass is a habitat for snails and a breeding ground for many fish. Seagrass makes for soft beaches as it protects the coasts from erosion. Seaweed also absorbs many nutrients, thus protecting the sea from over-fertilisation and keeping the water crystal clear.

What can we contribute to protection?

With your booking you encourage Save Posidonia Project

We at IFY donate a portion of your charter hire to the Save Posidonia project. Thus, with each booking you protect an area of about 5 to 250sqm of Neptune grass. Depending on the size of the chartered boat.

As a skipper, observe
the following rules:

  • Do not anchor on seagrass areas.
  • Anchor only in designated anchorages.
  • Do not discharge dirty water into the sea.
  • Do not discharge waste into the sea.
