We have trips to Turtle Island (Kho Man Nai) to see the giant sea turtle breeding facilities there. They raise the turtles from eggs and when they are old enough they release them into the sea.
Sea turtles are graceful saltwater reptiles, well adapted to life in their marine world. With streamlined bodies and flipper-like limbs, they are able to swim long distances in a relatively short time.
When they are active, sea turtles must swim to the ocean surface to breath every few minutes. When they are resting, they can remain underwater for as long as two hours without breathing.
Although sea turtles live most of their lives in the ocean, adult females must return to land in order to lay their eggs. Scientists believe that nesting female turtles return to the same beach on which they were born. Often sea turtles must travel long distances from their feeding grounds to their nesting beaches. Just how sea turtles find their nesting beaches is unknown.
