Happy to the most chaotic residents of Ocean Realm 🐢💚

Whether they're pestering our divers or (not-so-gracefully) enjoying snack time, Old Green, Stitches, and Bob are incredible ambassadors for their species.

From green sea turtles like Old Green and Stitches to loggerhead sea turtles like Bob, each species plays an important role in maintaining healthy marine ecosystems.

Nearly all sea turtle species are threatened or endangered, which is why we're proud to participate in Sea Turtle SAFE, an AZA collaborative conservation effort focused on securing sustainable populations.

You can help protect sea turtles by reducing single-use plastics, choosing sustainable seafood, properly recycling fishing line, picking up litter, and reducing light pollution near nesting beaches.

Everyone wish Asther, our star tortoise, a happy 14th birthday! 🐢🥳

Asther got to enjoy some leafy greens with his best bud, Pepe, our red footed tortoise. Pepe does love the camera though and had to make sure he got his close up! 😂
