Zardun’s sustainability strategy will focus on environmental stewardship, including the creation of oases to support diverse habitats and the reintroduction of native flora and fauna.

Along its coast, the luxury resort will also support the conservation of coral reefs in the Gulf of Aqaba.

Last November, NEOM’s board announced plans for a luxury coastal tourism destination called Epicon, to be located on the Gulf of Aqaba.

Epicon will have two towers, one standing at 225 metres (m) and the other at 275m. These towers will house a hotel with 41 rooms and luxury residences as well as 14 suites and apartments.

It has been conceived to meet all the needs of guests and residents, who enjoy dining at destination restaurants, undergo wellness treatments at the spa and relax at the beach club.
