Turtle Patrol *Conservation Activity*

Four species of sea turtles frequent the waters of the Seychelles and two species, namely green and hawksbill turtle, use our islands as their breeding grounds. ICS conducts monitoring activities to assess status and trends of turtle nesting populations and foraging aggregations, and to identify critical nesting and foraging areas, in order to better understand the biology of turtles and to determine which sites warrant inclusion within the Seychelles Protected Area network. This is an activity not to be missed as you might be lucky enough to encounter little hatchlings!
