Launched in 2021, the Atlantis Atlas Project is our commitment to responsible tourism, marine conservation and lasting environmental impact. The Atlantis Atlas Project is our commitment to do business in ways that are good for both people and planet. It brings together everything we do across responsible operations, conservation, education and community into one long-term strategy with measurable goals.

OUR FOUR PILLARS

The Atlantis Atlas Project

Every initiative, every decision and every investment at Atlantis Dubai is guided by four core pillars that keep us accountable to people and planet.
