It's World Turtle Day, and did you know...? 🐢🤔
1. They’ve been around forever 🦕
Marine turtles have existed for over 100 million years – they swam alongside dinosaurs.
2. They travel entire oceans 🗺️
Some species migrate thousands of kilometres, crossing oceans between feeding and nesting grounds.
3. They always find their way home 🤯
Female turtles return to the exact beach they were born on to lay their eggs.
4. Temperature decides their s*x 🌡️
Warmer sand = more females, cooler sand = more males. Nature’s own thermostat.
5. Only a few make it 🐢
Out of 1000 hatchlings, just one or two will survive to adulthood, making every nesting site incredibly important to protect.
At Turtle Sands, we're committing to protecting one of the most important nesting sites for endangered sea turtles in Australia.
From thoughtful design to our guest Turtle Protection Promise, it’s an Eco Certified holiday you can feel good about.
And falling in love with turtles? That's a given 💚
