- Kosgoda Sea Turtle Conservation Project - Sightseeing | Release the Baby Turtle to Sea | Educational Program
Sea turtles are among the most fascinating creatures, having evolved since the late Jurassic period, inhabiting both the sea and beach dunes. Mature female sea turtles migrate to beaches to lay their eggs, with a typical clutch containing 50 to 350 eggs. After laying, they return to the ocean. These soft-shelled eggs are buried in 20cm to 40cm deep circular holes in the sand, incubating for 50–60 days before the baby turtles hatch and make their way to the sea. In Sri Lanka, sea turtles are conserved to protect them from natural predators and humans. The southwest coast is a popular habitat for various sea turtle species, with Kosgoda being a major conservation site. Numerous volunteering missions operate under the National Wildlife Conservation of Sri Lanka, offering opportunities to engage in protection projects or contribute in various ways.
