Diving with Turtles

Many years ago, turtles were hunted and eaten in this place. Many stakeholders including governments, tourist sector and good people helped to prohibit this old tradition.
Now, the population of green turtles and other species in Bunaken Marine Park is healthy and numerous again.
If you dive here you have 100% chances to encounter a turtle, and they are huge! 😍

Today, also @siladenresort is protecting or relocating unsafe turtle nests in order to ensure the turtles get born and go to the ocean. As these, play a key role on the health of the reef.
