After a two year hiatus, the Turtle Release will be taking place on Tuesday, 17 November on the Seven Mile Public Beach at 5pm. Every year on the West Bay Heritage Day, residents and visitors alike take the opportunity to witness this phenomenal occasion. A lucky few will get the chance to actually release the turtle themselves into the water. It is a splashy activity but one that leaves you feeling good about your contribution to the conservation efforts of the Cayman Turtle Farm/Boatswain’s Beach attraction.
Since the release programme was started in the 1980’s, the attraction has released over 31,000 turtles. The turtles are released when they are about a year old and weigh 3 to 6 pounds.
All you have to do is visit us at the Park and sign up for this once in a lifetime adventure. The drawing for the lucky few will take place on Friday, 13 November, 2009.
