Sustainability & Conservation

Commitment to Tradition, for a Healthy Future
At Atoll Bend Pvt Ltd, we’re passionate about protecting the Maldives’ rich marine life through sustainable fishing practices. We source all our products responsibly from local fishers who use age-old traditions. These methods, adhering to Maldivian government regulations, ensure a healthy ocean for generations to come.

A Timeless Legacy
Fishing has been the lifeblood of the Maldives for centuries. As early as the 14th century, travelers documented the unique pole-and-line technique used here. This method minimizes ecological impact by catching fish one at a time.

Sustainability
Sustainable practices are essential for vibrant ocean ecosystems. Local fishers uphold traditions like pole-and-line, hand-line, and trolling, ensuring minimal bycatch.

One Fish, One Line, Big Difference
These selective methods minimize the accidental capture of dolphins, turtles, and other marine life. This low-impact approach protects the entire ecosystem and supports the livelihoods of artisanal fishers, especially in remote areas.

Preserving Paradise: A Shared Responsibility
The Maldives takes conservation seriously, with measures like:

Protected Species: Fishing for sharks, whales, turtles, and many other vital creatures is strictly prohibited.
Grouper Conservation: Size restrictions and spawning area protection ensure healthy grouper populations.
Responsible Fishing Practices: Destructive methods like poison, guns, and explosives are banned.

By sourcing from sustainable fishers and protecting marine life, Atoll Bend Pvt Ltd is committed to preserving the beauty and bounty of the Maldivian seas for future generations.

Bonus: All skipjack tuna harvested through pole-and-line fishing in the Maldives is triple-certified by the Marine Stewardship Council, Fairtrade, and Dolphin Friendly
