Frequently Asked Questions

Are turtle sightings guaranteed?

No — these are wild sea turtles, and landings depend on the night. Rangers lead the patrol to maximize your chances, and the baby-turtle release in the morning is a separate, more predictable highlight.

Why is a 4WD jeep needed?

The track through Meru Betiri National Park to Sukamade is rough, with river crossings — it’s part of the adventure and only passable by 4WD.

What is the accommodation like?

You stay at Java Turtle Lodge — simple, clean lodging close to the beach. This is a remote national-park area, so expect comfort over luxury.
