Six ways to go wild

June 10, 2025 - Short or long haul, Six Senses vacations offer kids the prized gift of quality time to recharge away from screens through unique wildlife encounters (while you recharge away from them). Wadi Ranger or Coral Gardener, anyone?

No screens, no scrolls

Here are our latest activities for children and teens to have fun in nature and learn new skills. No tech required. 

Wadi Rangers: Saudi Arabia

The wadis and desert surrounding Six Senses Southern Dunes, The Red Sea is home to a diverse ecosystem and important residents including the Arabian Red Fox and Desert Hedgehog. We marked International Day for Biological Diversity through the launch of the Junior Wadi Ranger program, a meaningful adventure into native flora and fauna for younger guests and local communities.

Coral Gardeners: Fiji

Corals may look like colorful rocks or stones, but did you know that they are made up of thousands of tiny animals called polyps? Six Senses Fiji partners with the NGO Coral Gardeners to support regeneration, planting 20,000 coral fragments in two nursery sites since the project began in December 2023. Hailing from Rewa in Fiji and with a background in Fisheries Science, Jerome now leads the Coral Gardeners team. They have recently introduced a bespoke app alongside island-style techniques like shading nurseries with coconut leaves. Families can snorkel the house reef to check out Jerome’s ‘coral trees’ and help clean off the algae that grows on the nursery, competing with the corals. Once they have been out-planted on the reef, marine life such as turtles and reef fish will take over the cleaning effort, acting as “sea sheep” grazing for food while keeping the reef clean in a happy circular economy.

Hedgehog Helpers: Ibiza

At our Six Senses Ibiza Farm, Can Tanca, the new Learning Center invites kids to connect with nature through harvesting produce, cooking local recipes, and exploring the farm’s natural habitats. The hedgehog volunteer program led by our NGO rescue partner, CanHog, turns little ones into wildlife carers, helping the expert conservationists by feeding the hedgehogs, giving them a coconut oil bath, and preparing them for release back into the wild.

Eco Warriors: Thailand

Combining themes of Farm, Nature Play and Re-creation, the three-day Junior Eco Warrior program at Six Senses Yao Noi inspires future changemakers through hands-on experiences and outdoor adventures. Children can collect fresh eggs, spot wildlife in the mangroves, and try their hand at building villas for our hornbills out of recycled timber in a 6R workshop.  

Marine Biologists: Maldives

Bath time is never a struggle when the water is turquoise and there are eagle rays and spinner dolphins playing in it. In handy two-hour sessions, during which you can linger over lunch or head to the spa, send your budding conservationists aged 6 to 16 years to our Junior Marine Biology beachside classroom at Six Senses Laamu to explore the reef, learn to make their own conservation videos, and rub fins with friendly marine life.  

Monkey Monitors: Vietnam

Excursions Into Wildlife at Six Senses Ninh Van Bay include a popular morning hike with the resident terrestrial biologist, Ms. Quynh, to learn about forest life and the efforts to protect a troop of critically endangered monkeys (black-shanked douc langurs). Their numbers are growing year on year thanks to habitat protection and extensive research, which is forging a deeper understanding of their diet and behaviors.  

Across our properties worldwide, Grow With Six Senses offers an array of fun and educational activities for children between four and 12 years, incorporating the six dimensions of wellness (social, environmental, physical, spiritual, emotional, and intellectual) while keeping the focus on fun.
