HONOLULU – For the last five years, Outrigger Hotels and Resorts has set out to save the coral reefs and create a tidal wave of global change as part of its OZONE conservation initiative. With pollution and mass bleaching impacting the world’s oceans and putting coral at risk, Outrigger’s ZONE (OZONE) is put into action each day by educating guests with hands-on activities, promoting green initiatives and organizing volunteer local projects, all which support coral conservation and protect the well-being of ocean environments surrounding the brand’s iconic beachfront destinations.

This June, as part of World Oceans Month, Outrigger properties worldwide are rolling out a new “Living Coral” cocktail programme inspired by the 2019 PANTONE Colour of the Year, with proceeds benefiting coral health and resiliency on a global and local level.

In addition to enjoying coral-conscious cocktails by the beach, Outrigger invites guests to get in the OZONE mind-set by participating in unique conservation experiences that help preserve and protect the ocean’s coral. From simple actions such as local beach clean-ups and wearing reef-friendly sunscreen, to immersive activities that include planting coral nurseries at Outrigger Resorts in Fiji and snorkelling with a resident marine biologist at Outrigger in the Maldives, the hospitality brand encourages guests to become part of the solution.

“World Oceans Month calls attention to the vital role that the sea plays in our everyday lives; because it’s in Outrigger’s brand DNA to care for the planet year-round, our OZONE platform provides an opportunity for our guests and hosts to take an active role in fighting for the sustainable future of our oceans,” said Monica Salter, vice president of corporate communications for Outrigger Hospitality Group. “In addition to offering PANTONE colour of the year “Living Coral” inspired cocktails this summer, our resort properties will continue providing enriching eco-activities which protect our oceans from harm and help them to thrive for generations to come.”

As part of the 2019 OZONE programme, Outrigger has launched a new and impactful website – Outrigger.com/OZONE – where guests and eco-conscious consumers from around the world can learn about the brand’s conservation initiative, explore interesting facts about coral reefs and ultimately take an active role in fighting for the future of our oceans. Outrigger is also sporting a new “Living Coral” coloured OZONE logo through the end of 2019 to boost awareness of the importance of thriving coral reefs.

Sip and Save the Reefs
Being environmentally conscious is always on-trend, so once PANTONE 16-1546 Living Coral was chosen as the 2019 colour of the year – Outrigger knew it wanted to create a line-up of fun, flirty cocktail and mocktail offerings that harness the power of coral while also driving support for ocean health. Kicking-off World Oceans Month this June through the year’s end, select on-property restaurants at Outrigger properties will be offering a unique selection of living-coral-coloured cocktails, with proceeds benefitting various local non-profits that tie back to the OZONE mission.

Some highlights of Outrigger’s 2019 “Living Coral” cocktail programme include:
