and hot water are available.
Several noise proof generators supply electricity around the clock, voltage is 220 volts
and all rooms have philippine and european power outlets.
Environmental and Nature Protection
Hippocampus plays an active role in a conservation project initiated in 2009, which aims at purchasing and operating three well
equipped and armed patrol boats. These shall monitor the existing marine sanctuaries and eliminate illegal fisheries. A key success
element is also education of the local communities.
In several aviaries in the resort philippine birds are kept and bred, including the rare and
endangered nicobar pidgeons (Hippocampus is also a wildlife farm).
