Great experience. Not a crowded tourist spot. We had a private tour and were able to feed the turtles and go into the water with them. A great experience! This place is really about the turtles and not mass tourism.

From start to finish this was a fabulous experience which I highly recommend. The pick up and drop off was perfect, with the driver happy to answer any questions and give information as we traveled about the sights. The turtle sanctuary was a wonderful experience where we got to swim with and feed three different pools of turtles of varying sizes. We also saw one week old baby turtles too. We were given lots of information by the guide who also too many photos and videos for us. Show and toilet facilities also on site. A memorable experience and the turtles are clearly well cared for and loved.
