Turtle Hatchlings – Laamu, Maldives

,
Turtle Hatchlings at the Six Senses – Laamu, Maldives beach.

A few days ago around 11am, the staff at Six Senses Resort notified us the sea turtles were emerging from the sand and heading to the Indian Ocean. The biologists & staff contained the turtles on the beach for a few minutes to help increase the population and prevent predators from capturing them before they enter the water.

Watching the turtle hatchlings was an amazing experience!

I shot this on my iphone and edited in Final Cut Pro. This was in between dives and I didn’t have time to get my camera.

      Thanks! I was lucky! Only one nest hatched when I was there. And I’m also happy that you enjoyed!
