Loggerheads, Leatherbacks, Hawksbills and Green Turtles Long before Aruba’s first human visitors arrived, the island welcomed another group of intrepid tourists: sea turtles. These majestic creatures are among a very select group of animals that have roamed the Earth since the Jurassic Period – about 150 million years ago! The Caribbean is a hotbed of activity for these ancient mariners – even sea turtles know that everything’s better on white-sand beaches, surrounded by an azure sea.

Aruba plays host to four species of sea turtles: Loggerheads, Leatherbacks, Hawksbills, and Green Turtles. During nesting season, between March and September, female turtles return to the same beach where they were born, to lay their eggs. Usually, these nesting events occur at night but, a few years ago, a gorgeous Leatherback turtle laid her eggs at sunset! Important: If you are ever to come across sea turtle tracks or nests on the beach, please keep your distance and contact the Turtugaruba Foundation https://turtugaruba.org/ so that they can be properly protected and monitored.
