Watching tiny turtle hatchlings make their way down the beach, or the steady path of a mother turtle making her way up the sand to lay her precious clutch of eggs, is truly a 'bucket list' moment – and one that you certainly don't get to experience every day!

Keen to learn a little more about these adorable little guys before you arrive? Then read on for some quick facts about the many turtles who chose to return to Mon Repos every year!
