Unfortunately the free bar won over the coach trip to look at endangered Turtles
I did watch the slideshow on the Turtles though --- they held it in the bar.
very convenient.
Apparently the colour of the sand that "mummy" turtle lays her eggs in dictates the sex of the young and the Greeks just happened to have built a car park on the female turtle beach.
When the young are born they walk down to the sea then swim for 24 hours to get into open water --- only 1 in every 1000 make it to open water.
My suggestion of building a couple of big sandpits (male and female) to incubate the eggs in fell on deaf ears.
And taking the young ones out to sea in a boat to save them swimming for 24 hours was deemed bang out of order by the conservationist.
No wonder these turtles are endangered they're being looked after by a bunch of twats.
All the best Mick
