What a MAY! 🐢🙌🏽🇮🇩

The turtles are beginning to lay their eggs thick and fast on the Gili beaches. This month we've broken our record with 47 nests laid!

Our rangers are working day and night to ensure the protection of the turtle nests!

We wish we didn't have to relocate so many nests, but the beaches are fast eroding, and those that are left have been taken over by beach furniture, shops, bars and beach clubs.

Help us to share this so more people are aware of why we need clean, quiet, dark beaches for turtles!

The Manta Market was so much fun! ☺️🐢

A big thank you to everyone who stopped past our market stand at the Manta Market on Saturday!

We loved talking to heaps of turtle fanatics, explaining why turtle hatchlings should experience immediate release rather than kept captive in tanks and pools.

It really was interactive for all ages! Over 30 people pledged for free turtles on our big art mural! (The youngest, Jordan hasn't had her 1st birthday yet! 🥹)

Whilst kids (again, of ages 2-60 😆) got involved with digging for treasure, rescuing turtle toys trapped in ropes and counting 'turtle eggs' ping pong balls.

We managed to raise 1,550,000idr to continue our project, thank you if you sponsored a turtle nest or purchased a turtle keychain!

Best yet! Our Turtle nest cage that we had on display was promptly picked up by the Turtle Rangers and moved to a nest that was laid at 5pm on the beach! We are now complelty out of proper nest cages and have to move to temporary baskets until some start hatching.

We can't wait for more educational and interactive activities to help raise awareness with our busy turtle nesting season. 🙏🏼🐢🙌🏽

Waspada Musim Penyu Bertelur 🐢

Saat ini adalah musim penyu bertelur di Gili Trawangan. Jika Anda melihat penyu di pantai, mohon segera hubungi Proyek Penyu Gili Trawangan agar petugas yang terlatih dapat memastikan keselamatan penyu tersebut.

Jika Anda memiliki usaha di area tepi pantai selama musim penyu, mohon untuk membantu dengan cara:
• Mematikan lampu di malam hari
• Mengecilkan volume musik setelah pukul 21.00
• JANGAN menyentuh penyu saat mereka naik ke pantai
• JANGAN mengganggu kandang atau sarang penyu, meskipun ada bayi penyu di dalamnya

Mari saling mengingatkan dan membagikan informasi ini kepada teman, staf, dan rekan kerja anda.
Bersama-sama kita jaga dan lindungi penyu di Gili Trawangan.
🐢🌊
