In a remarkable collaboration that resonates with elegance and adventure, Red Sea Global (RSG), the visionary developer behind the world’s most ambitious regenerative tourism havens, The Red Sea and Amaala, proudly unveils its exclusive partnership with the renowned Bear Grylls Survival Academy (BGSA), heralding the arrival of this legendary survival and adventure brand in the heart of Saudi Arabia. This exquisite affiliation epitomises RSG’s unwavering dedication to delivering all-encompassing and sustainable adventure experiences, inviting individuals from diverse backgrounds to partake in the thrill of the great outdoors.
The Pinnacle of Adventurous Pursuits
Bear Grylls, an international icon renowned for his electrifying escapades in the world’s most formidable wildernesses, serves as the guiding force behind BGSA. His unwavering commitment to the exploration of nature’s boundless challenges has been distilled into a collection of captivating courses designed to nurture team-building, wilderness education, and essential survival skills. These meticulously crafted programmes now beckon discerning outdoor enthusiasts to embark on a journey that promises both enlightenment and exhilaration. Every facet of these experiences has been personally curated by the indomitable Bear Grylls himself.
This remarkable partnership is not limited to the pursuit of adventure alone. It extends an invitation to collaborate on a wide array of accessible opportunities, ranging from physical wellness to mental well-being programmes, all under the aegis of RSG’s adventure sports brand, Akun. In keeping with RSG’s resolute commitment, these experiences are tailored to be both accessible and inclusive, ensuring that guests and visitors with disabilities and special needs are welcomed with open arms.
“Bear Grylls is known the world over for his exhilarating and adrenaline-pumping adventures in nature’s most challenging environments. Yet, always at the heart of these exploits is the central message that nature plays a profound role in shaping us as people – instilling strength, resilience, self-belief, and teamwork. We believe that everyone should have the chance to follow their sense of adventure and will work with the Bear Grylls Survival Academy team to develop outdoor experiences for all, whether adults or young people, and irrespective of physical and cognitive ability,” said John Pagano, Group CEO of Red Sea Global.
The grand unveiling of The Red Sea’s first phase, including its international airport and premier hotels, is poised to welcome its inaugural guests this year. The journey commences with the opening of the resplendent Six Senses Southern Dunes, The Red Sea. Subsequently, Amaala, the jewel in the crown of Saudi Arabia’s luxury destinations, will graciously extend its invitation to visitors, poised to welcome guests in early 2025. As these paradisiacal destinations spring to life, the allure of adventure, discovery, and opulence converges, ensuring that every guest embarks on an extraordinary sojourn beyond their wildest dreams.
