  Amazing experience!!!! Luckily we only had to wait till 8pm for our turtle to arrive. But there’s a food van on site and heaps of stuff to read and look at inside the info centre while waiting for your turtle to arrive.

  Very informative centre even though we were here to early for the turtles. I'd like to come back to experience the excitement of seeing the turtles coming to lay or better still the hatchlings emerging.

  Make sure you book ahead as it is very popular. We did not and we could not go. Kindly we waited untill the night started (7:00 pm). We both tried to ask one of the staff members and got fully ignored. They just looked the other way as soon as we started asking if there where cancellations. Very rude. The website had a failure as well so booking true the website was not an option.

  Awesome. Great experience for those with patience enough to hang about and wait for mother nature to take her course. Saw two turtles laying eggs in the same night and had the opportunity to help relocate eggs to give them a better chance. Would have paid double to do this. Gift shop was really reasonable too, and it is run by mainly volunteers who are absolutely lovely.

  Had an AMAZING experience. Walked on the beach in the dark. Sat on the beach, could not use phones - AWESOME! - it was so nice and dark and peaceful. Got to see a gorgeous green turtle laying eggs and watched the whole process. Staff were professional and great. Only problem is that the group was too big and the poor guide had to try really hard to project their voice so everyone could hear, especially with the waves. Would recommend some other way of communicating, something like earphones maybe? But awesome experience overall. So nice to be so close and personal with a turtle and learnt so much about turtles even when we weren't seeing one because we had an awesome guide.
