Small but worth the visit
My teenage daughter wanted to check out the work done here so we went. Even though the place was small, we must commend the efforts that the staff have put in to maintain this place. It was educational for my child and I. We learned that they had to buy turtle eggs from fishermen, which would have been eaten or sold. There was a 16 year old turtle there which could not be freed because it was reared by humans since young and only recently given up. As we were there at 11am, we could not help to release a small turtle as they did this only earlier in the morning. However, we find that even though we paid a small visitation fee, we were happy to do so as the money went into helping the conservation and rehabilitation of turtles that had been going on for many years now.

A brilliant experience
We visited the turtle project as part of a day trip to pemuteran from lovina. We were informed that if we came back at 4.30 it was feeding time or the following day they were releasing a group of the baby turtles. We were told this and signs made it very clear so look out for them if you visit. We went back the next day and for a 100k fee to support the project we released one of their turtles on the beach. It was a truly amazing experience that we won't forget. A great project that we were happy to be able to support in a small way.

Release a turtle
You pay 40.000 ruhpia for entrance and with that you support a good initiatief. There is only 1 bassin with around 50 baby turtles at the time we were there, and 1 bassin with a huge turtle. Net morning we released 1 baby turtle for 100k. They are doing a good job, so lets help them
