Wind & water
Moved by wind | Drawn to water
The trade winds of The Emerald Sea in Babaomby bring a long wind season, from March to early December, creating exceptional conditions for kitesurfing, wingfoiling and windsurfing across vast stretches of crystal-clear water.
Beyond the wind
There is more than one way to feel Babaomby

SUSTAINABLE BY DESIGN
Built with the land not over it
Sustainability at Harena is not an addition. It shapes how the lodge is built, powered and lived in
SUN & AIR
Designed to run entirely on solar energy, with natural ventilation and abundant daylight
EARTH & MATERIALS
Local stone and rammed earth connect the architecture to the landscape
WATER
A constructed wetland filters wastewater, while reverse osmosis produces drinking water on site
CIRCULAR SYSTEMS
Hydroponic gardens, composting and careful waste management reduce what must be brought in—or taken away
