Cayman Turtle Farm was established in 1968 as Mariculture Ltd. by a group of investors from the United States and Great Britain as a facility to raise the green sea turtle, Chelonia mydas, for commercial purposes. The intention was to supply the market with a source of product that did not deplete the wild populations further. By releasing turtles and facilitating research, any harm created by removing turtles and eggs from the wild would be mitigated
No matter how many time you visit, you just can't get enough of the turtle farm. There is always something new to do or see, and the ever changing population of turtles are a great source of entertainment for children and families alike. |
