An Insider's Guide to Booking your Ultimate Turtle Experience

Every year the Southern Great Barrier Reef welcomes mother turtles upon the shores of Lady Elliot Island, Lady Musgrave Island and Mon Repos Beach as they return to the place they were born to lay their eggs, drawn by a magnetic connection to the tectonic plates of the beach established upon hatching. An experience for all ages and a true miracle of nature, with only 1 in 1000 baby turtles reaching maturity to return to lay, watching these magnificent turtles in their natural habitat is a bucket list experience you don't want to miss. So, whether you're swimming with turtles among the coral-filled waters of the Southern Great Barrier Reef or witnessing a miracle on a ranger-guided Mon Repos Nightly Turtle Encounter, come experience the magic of the turtle lifecycle this Bundaberg Turtle Season.
