Experience turtles in nature - This is possible in two places in Oman
Activities: We went to the Turtle Reserve at night to see the turtles. We saw about 15 giant turtles building their nests and laying eggs. We were told to avoid using any light and flash photography to not disturb the animals. The guides were professional and respectful of the animals
Highlights: It was a magical experience that captivated us all. We were able to watch the turtles lay their eggs and return to the sea. Such moments encourage reflection on protecting nature ✨
Ras Al Jinz with kids: turtle watching in Oman!
Activities: We visited the reserve to see the turtles. We had to gather at the reception desk of the Ras Al Jinz Turtle Reserve at 7:30 p.m. and then it’s wait and see what time you will be picked up by the guides
Highlights: We were allowed to get so close to the turtle in question. We expected to be allowed to stand behind ribbons a few meters from the turtle ✨
