(MENAFN- GetNews) Following the Tonga earthquake, Islands renews its call for preparedness and responsible tourism across private island listings.

In response to the recent 7.1-magnitude earthquake near Tonga , Islands is reaffirming its commitment to safety and preparedness across its global network of private island listings. As interest in remote travel and island getaways continues to rise, the platform is using this moment to emphasize the importance of resilience and responsible tourism in vulnerable coastal regions.

While no major damage was reported to Tonga's private islands, the event served as a timely reminder of the natural risks that come with island ownership and travel. Islands is encouraging both island owners and prospective visitors to consider safety features and sustainable practices as essential parts of the island experience.

“Events like these remind us how vital it is to build with awareness and travel with intention,” said Georgio Daher , CEO of Islands.“We want every island featured on our platform to reflect not just luxury, but responsibility and readiness.”

Islands is exploring new initiatives that promote emergency preparedness, environmentally conscious design, and long-term sustainability. These efforts include early-stage conversations with island development experts to provide guidance for listings in disaster-prone regions.

The platform, known for its curated collection of private islands available for rent or sale, sees this focus on safety as an extension of its promise to offer more than just exclusive escapes-it aims to connect people with places that are beautiful, secure, and built to last.
