Turtle Sanctuary Beach reviews

The water here is sparkling blue and the beach has soft, fine, white sand. We stopped here for a break while island hopping and it was very relaxing to have a splash around the shallow water. Unfortunately there aren't many fishes to see here since there isn't any coral reefs nearby.

A great snorkeling site to watch turtles. I can't dive so I was only able to observe them from the surface, but I'm pretty sure they were green turtles. Or were they hawksbill? But definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
