    The Red Sea Project, one of the giga-projects announced by the crown prince in 2017, is billed as one of the World\u2019s most ambitious tourism and hospitality projects: An ultra-luxury destination that is being created around one of the world\u2019s hidden natural treasures. The Red Sea Project will set new standards in sustainable development and redefine the world of luxury tourism with objectives to position the Kingdom on the global tourism map. Once completed, visitors will be able to explore the wonders and rich cultural heritage of Saudi Arabia\u2019s untouched Red Sea Coast. This touristic project includes more than 90 unspoiled islands between the cities of Umluj and Al-Wajh. It covers several of the Red Sea\u2019s untouched islands and a nature reserve containing regional flora and fauna. The project location is characterized by the presence of steep rock slopes that become susceptible to instabilities once it is altered from their original form during the expected construction activities required for the project. Therefore, one of the main challenges was to adopt the right solution that would protect the workers and the visitors from the potential geo-hazards that could happen during the construction period and in the future. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
