Turtles in East Timor / Timor  Leste

The waters around Timor Leste teem with Turtles, which are occasionally  hunted for meat.

There are hundreds of remote beaches in  Timor Leste, where they nest, including the beaches on the west side of Atauro Island.

These eggs were for sale in the Dili fish market, looking and feeling remarkably like ping  pong balls.

The turtles lay  their eggss particularly when their is  a full moon.

If you would like to spend  an evening  watching this or watching the hatchlings rnu to the sea , then contact Lola at tvh.tl on
