Learn how 2.5 million turtles have been released into the ocean and nearly 3.8 million turtle eggs have been protected then witness the release of turtles in an unforgettable simulation. Then join the team as they release turtles in an unforgettable simulation and later, enjoy the resort's many luxurious facilities including the pool, pristine white sand beach and lounging areas where you can relax and soak up the sun.
