This a really lovely evening! Was such a wholesome experience getting to watch the turtle lay her eggs before burying them and making her way to the sand. Staff were great in keeping in contact from the moment we booked and re collecting us from hotel. During the excursion the tour guide was switching between multiple languages to make sure everyone understood, was so impressive and they answered all of our questions about turtles was brilliant
