The Gili Eco Trust was set up in 2002 to support local efforts from SATGAS (local security) to protect the Gili islands. The seven dive centres of Gili Trawangan reached an agreement with a local organization and began collecting a small fee from each diver. This money was initially used to help ban dynamite and cyanide fishing.  Since 2004, the Gili Eco Trust established a cutting-edge reef restoration program. The Biorock® that lie directly off the beach around the island are steel  structures that stimulate coral growth with the use of a low-voltage electric current. The Gili islands are now home to 40 Biorock® reefs. Ask at your dive center for more information on this pioneering project or come to meet Delphine or some volunteers in Big Bubble Dive.
Through the Gili Eco Trust ECO TAX, each visitor or diver continues to help to conserve our recovering marine environment and help our new land eco projects;

Gili Eco Trust money supports local fishermen to enable them to fish further a field, taking pressure off the immediate area. As you dive or snorkel through the waters around these islands, you will see the evidence of marine populations recovering.  

The Gili Eco Trust is currently expanding its programs. New directions include education and awareness initiatives, as well as projects that will help the local community to realise a sustainable future despite the pressure of increased visitor numbers. We are working to ensure that these islands will be able to support their communities while attracting international visitors for years to come.  While your financial backing is vital in enabling us to continue our work, your behavior in terms of your impact on the island is even more important. On land please make sure that you use the bins provided for all your rubbish (including your cigarette ends!) and on your dives please be careful of where you are putting your fins and fingers. Remember that marine life is there to be observed and admired, not hassled or collected!

As you enjoy your time here, we ask you to be aware of how delicate this ecosystem is. Help us to ensure that future generations have this same privileged opportunity….
