Go behind the scenes at the world's only Green Sea Turtle farm and conservation centre, handling hatchlings, snorkelling the lagoon and meeting the researchers protecting a species from extinction.
What to expect
A private guide meets you at the entrance and leads you through the turtle breeding pools, where you can gently hold a hatchling Green Sea Turtle under expert supervision. Visit the research labs to learn about tagging, nesting and conservation milestones. Snorkel the on-site saltwater lagoon alongside juvenile turtles and reef fish. The experience closes with a marine biologist Q&A — genuinely eye-opening for adults and families alike.
Good to know
Book the VIP private tour directly via the Centre's website or by calling ahead. Located in Boatswain's Bay, 15 minutes from George Town by taxi. Allow 2.5–3 hours. Swimwear under clothes recommended for the snorkel lagoon.
