This was a very unexpectedly rewarding visit. I was enjoying trying to experience real animal conversation during my holiday. This is to understand the animal conservation better in the country we visit. Reading about turtle conversation in Bali, I wanted to visit but after reading some other reviews was mildly hesitate if I would really enjoy it. It was amazing! On arrival you sign in and then a volunteer guide welcomes you and explains what and why they do what they do. You are then shown the turtle egg nests that have been rescued and in incubation, then over to the pens where you see rescued turtles waiting to go back to the ocean and baby turtles from being born that day to 3 days old. All of this takes around 30-40mins and you can stop there if you wish. This is also all free. With it being turtle season when we visited (Sept), there was the option to adopt a baby turtle for a fee ($25AUD), name it and then head out on a boat and release it back in the ocean. We choose to do this and this process (adopting, going out on a boa, return) took about an hour on top of the faculty tour. It was so worth it. You head out in small groups (approximately 6-8 people) and release your adopted turtle. It may be a small facility but they are doing great work and really worth the visit!

If you have as your goal to “do” a turtle from the boat into the sea it is a nice thing. Otherwise you think I can look at turtles better in regulated zoos. A Schildi Costs 230k for each one accompanied it costs80 k on top. D.h. 5 persons 3 Schildis =850 k around 50€. The fun lasts around 1 h of which around 45 minutes car to the port and then out by boat and the same back again. The facility is manageable and complete to see in 30 min (various pools with turtles; much larger have very little space and are only with water in the pool is better in any zoo) We then felt the worst about the options to get away from there. Taximaffia is doing quite well. No normal prices but rather 3 times. Plus flimsy reasons why you have to do this and that it would be fair. Grab unfortunately did not go no driver drives there for the recording. However, the “facility is free” becomes quite price intensive over the turtle sponsorship and the taxi topic in total (relative to the duration) My kids loved putting it in the water, for the experience there would be 5 stars the facility itself gets 3 and the taxi 0 With that, I give a total of 5.

We had a lovely experience at this place. We got to see lots of turtles that they were taking care of. We also released baby turtles into the sea, which we ‘adopted’ for a fee. I’m always nervous if these places are genuinely taking care of animals or just using them to make money. However this place was free to enter and they were not pushy in any way for donations, or to adopt the turtles. It felt like a really genuine place that was doing its bit to look after these animals. Really nice experience picking the baby turtles and then careful taking them out to sea on their boat. The kids really liked it and it was very cute.

We went to turtle conservation and education centre. Had a short tutorial from a couple of the team working there. Well versed on the subject matter. The turtles were all ages and rescue situations. It cost $25 donation per turtle released and it was worth every penny. Made you want to cry with joy. Boat ride out to a safe release area. You can even buy souvenirs but for the great work they are doing it’s worth it.

We adopted 5 turtles and let them into the sea. Was a great experience, albeit not quite cheap fun for 230,000 rupees per turtle. 1-3 day old juveniles and some younger or even adult specimens can be seen in the complex, which are then picked up and released into the sea. And the volunteers tell you a lot about the animals. If you don’t want to adopt and abandon turtles (or this isn’t possible due to the season), you’re better off in a zoo. Therefore, I recommend clarifying beforehand whether it is currently hatching season.

We took the children for a quick visit and just made a release. Well organised, if you want to pay to release it’s a very quick bus (5 mins) and a quick boat journey to release your adopted turtles. We loved it and the centre was very helpful, it’s not a theme park and seems to be a legitimate conservation project. Note, make sure you arrive no later than 2pm if you want to release.

What an amazing place. The guides are passionate about saving turtles and keeping their rehab living conditions the best they can be before returning them to their natural habitat when the vet says it’s time! We adopted 3day old turtles and took the boat ride and released them into the sea. The cost of adoptions and donations keep the place running so I’d encourage anyone visiting to donate generously and experience the feel good factor of increasing the wild sea turtle population :-) loved it and it is an experience my 7 and 9 year olds will be talking about for years to come 💕Thank you SO MUCH trip advisor for the reviews that made us cancel “Turtle Island” and to come here :-) thank you to the conservation team for being so knowledgable and engaging :-)

Wasn't too sure what to expect, but it was well worth a visit. Free entry and a guide assigned to you on arrival. He explained many turtles are rescues, either from fishing net or propeller damage. There are turtles also confiscated from black market activity. There is a hatching area and you can adopt a week old baby turtle and release it back into the sea at a cost of $25. You are transferred by car to the port and taken on a short boat ride out to sea to release the turtle. A must for families or anyone wanting to help the environment. All proceeds go back into saving the turtles.

I visited the park on a perfect day! The sun was out and perfect day for the boat. The staff were informative and friendly. The turtles were beautiful and the babies so cute! You could even feed some river turtles too. You can adopt a baby turtle for $23 AUD and go out on a boat about 10 minutes into the ocean and release it yourself!

Nice experience. Volunteers do a good job. Adoption costs 150K per turtle that you may then release into the sea. You can also come without adoption, for a smaller fee. Attention: closed on Sundays!
