  • Victor Hasselblad Sea Turtle Research & Conservation Center, Kosgoda, Sri Lanka
    VICTOR HASSELBLAD SEA TURTLE RESEARCH & CONSERVATION CENTRE.This is the oldest turtle conservation and research project in Sri Lanka. It was started by the famous camera manufacturer, Victor Hasselblad, at a time when all 7 species of sea turtles were on the Endangered list. Of the 7 species, 5 were found to be frequenting the beaches of the southern coast of Sri Lanka where they beached to lay their eggs. Now the eggs are collected and hatched out in the centre. They are allowed to grow before being released back into the wild. During the years, the center has released nearly four million turtle hatchlings into the sea. You can see many types of turtle from 1 day old to 30 years old. You can see the injured turtles that are kept at the centre because they cannot be released and you can talk to the knowledgable staff about their important work. The on-site gift shop sells many and varied items and the money raised goes back into helping the centre release more turtles.

I thought that doing all these things in one day would be a rush from one place to another without time to enjoy the places we stopped at - but it wasn't. Everything was relaxed and well planned and if you want a fascinating day trip with a guide who knows his stuff then you should book Sam. If we return to Sri Lanka we will certainly use him again.
