The famous five-star Atlantis Hotel, The Palm, which is located on the "crescent" around the man-made island Palm Jumeirah in Dubai, continues a series of educational programs with stories about the mysterious inhabitants of the underwater flora and fauna. In early May, as part of a family entertainment program, all young and young guests of the unique Lost Chambers underwater cave complex, which is home to over 65 thousand species of marine animals and fish, will meet with a real daredevil and hero of many films - Michael Rutzen, who in common people also called "man-shark."
Forty-year-old and very charming Frenchman devoted almost half his life to his personal acquaintance with the most bloodthirsty inhabitants of the underwater depths and now he can confidently say that he knows everything about them firsthand. Such specialists as Michael are few in the world. Owner of countless titles, he became the most popular hero of films about sea nature - "Beyond Fear" (2005), "Shark Man" (2007), "Great White Shark: A Living Legend" (2008-2009), "Shark Night "(2010).
Michael adheres to the principle that a shark is best seen alive, in every sense of the word. King of Jordan Abdullah II, British Prince Harry, representatives of royal families from the UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia did not fail to take advantage of his proposal to dive into the cage to the deep sea. Moreover, he himself most often dives to his many toothy “friends” in a simple scuba diver costume.
"Shark-Man" travels around the world to tell everyone as much as possible about the preservation of this beautiful predator in nature and its protection. “We are honored to host such an outstanding shark specialist who can share our knowledge. The hotel already has a number of educational programs aimed at expanding the representation of children and adults in this area, including Shark Diving in our “We’re confident that communicating with Michael Rutzen will be an interesting and unforgettable experience for our guests,” said Steve Kaiser, vice president of marine science and systems engineering at Atlantis, The Palm.
All visitors to Atlantis The Palm Hotel will be able to shake hands with the hero and take courage lessons from him on May 4, 2012, from 10.00 to 20.00. This day will also be held educational lessons with marine fauna specialists, meetings with the hotel scuba team and other recreational activities.
The hotel management reports that when buying a full adult ticket for 100 dirhams in “Lost Chambers”, the child is free of charge. In addition, on May 4, special discounts of 20% will be offered in the hotel restaurants.
