Arrive in the morning and you are 85% guaranteed to see Sea Turtles feeding/swimming together 🌅🌊 We met a volunteer (blue t-shirt) who was monitoring the turtles, and they were kind enough to give us some info about their feeding habits and egg hatching. I had to tear myself away, as one could easily sit and watch these beautiful creatures all day!
A place where you will see turtles for sure, coming for the fishing boats in the morning. I was there from 9.30-11 in the morning and there were maybe 3-4 turtles. We were told that the fishes are not natural food to the turtles, and they come to the coast for "easy food" from the fisherboats. But this way, they may get harmed from the propelers, boats, etc. Also, don't give them any other food.
Simply amazing! I had the chance to spot several sea turtles swimming and playing near some fishing boats. It was a peaceful and unforgettable experience, watching them glide through the water so gracefully. There's something truly special about seeing these beautiful creatures in their natural habitat. Highly recommend this spot for sea turtle sightings!
