Sri lanka trip--Rekawa Beach
Sri Lanka is an ideal country for observing sea turtles, with 5 out of the world's 7 species of sea turtles found there. ⭐⭐ In terms of sea turtle conservation in Sri Lanka, the Sea Turtle Conservation Center has achieved remarkable success. They have not only successfully rescued, hatched, and released nearly 1.6 million baby sea turtles back into the ocean but also educated tourists and local students on the importance of sea turtle conservation through the establishment of the center. ⭐⭐ However, as a visitor at the Sea Turtle Conservation Center, you are only allowed to feed and bathe the turtles, not witness the turtles laying eggs. ⭐⭐ But there is another place where you can witness sea turtles laying eggs and hatching, and that is the Buckingham Place Hotel in Tangalle. Adjacent to the Rekawa Lagoon and Rekawa Sea, just a 40-minute drive from Yala, within 50 meters of the hotel, you can see newborn baby turtles making their first journey to the sea. At night, guided by a guide, you can witness the miracle of life as sea turtles lay their eggs. #Sri lanka#Sri lanka life#Rekawa Lagoon#Rekawa Beach#colombo#trip diary#travel guide
