As the 2018-2019 turtles nesting season almost comes to an end, with the peak of the season long gone and hatching season also over. We have done a preliminary analysis of collected data to see how productive the season has been. In terms of encountered turtles, there were 49 encounters this year
compared to 26 in the previous season 2017-2018, noting that several times these were the same turtles encountered. Moreover, far more tracks and nests have been
recorded for both Hawksbill and Green turtles:
Hawksbill turtle emergences: 283
Hawksbill turtle nests: 147
Green turtle emergences: 15
Green turtle nests: 8
