Danjugan’s own kind of Easter eggs hatched yeste

Danjugan’s own kind of Easter eggs hatched yesterday! 🥹🌊💙 77 hawksbill sea turtle hatchlings emerged from the nest at Turtle Beach, Danjugan Island right on time for Easter Sunday. 💚🌞

Hawksbill sea turtles (𝘌𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘮𝘰𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘺𝘴 𝘪𝘮𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘢) are critically endangered species 🌊🐢 and they encounter so many threats even before they’re born and up to maturity. That’s why it’s such a miracle to witness sea turtles hatching— it means their mother was also born here in the area, survived all the challenges for a few decades, and went back home here in the island to lay eggs 🪺

We hope these hatchlings survive and thrive in our oceans (and come back to Danjugan to lay their own eggs this time 🥹) amidst the threat of the climate crisis. We are grateful to the hard work of our island staff (especially to our Head Guide @ram.armada ) and the pawikan experts who helped us manage the nests 💙

Learn more about our sea turtles, biodiversity, and the climate through our Marine and Wildlife Adult Camps this April and May 2024 🫶🏽 Register here: tiny.cc/MWC2024

Our hearts are still so full of love from last wee

Our hearts are still so full of love from last weekend’s camp! 💙

Together with students and staff from Nord Anglia International School Manila, we had such a meaningful adventure during our:
-climate and biodiversity discussions ☀️
-snorkeling in the beautiful reefs of Danjugan 🪸🌊
-searching for wildlife during our treks from one beach to another 🦅
…and we even did sessions on art, yoga, and sound healing! 🎨🧘🏻‍♀️

Does your school, company, organization, or family also want to hold a Marine and Wildlife Camp with us? DM us to learn more 💚
