SOS Tartarugas works in Cape Verde protecting nesting loggerheads turtles (Caretta caretta) and their habitat. Cape Verde is the third most important nesting area for loggerheads in the world. Turtles are at risk from hunting for meat, stealing of eggs, removal of sand for building and unregulated tourism development. Our email is info@turtlesos.org.

Diving with turtles


Went diving with Joel who's the co-owner of Overboard who make all kinds of products to keep your gear dry and sand free. Joel and Dan are sponsoring us this year and have kindly donated all the bags we need to keep GPS's, notebooks and tagging equipment safe on the beaches. Appropriately, two turtles (both loggerheads) graced us with their presence! http://www.over-board.co.uk
