Turtle Sanctuary Kuantan

Khadijah has to miss her last day on the camp for a visit to Cherating Turtle Sanctuary. I discovered it whilst surfing the net for Rantau Abang's Turple Sanctuary. Apparently, Rantau Abang has been deserted by both the turtle and the tourist due to extensive pollution and disturbance of the turtle by the tourist.
This turtle sanctuary is being managed by the Jabatan Perikanan Malaysia. It was small but very well kept. We can actually camp there at night and the centre will alert us if there are turtles that come up the shore to lay eggs.
