Title: SEA-TURTLE NESTS IN OUR BEACH !!!
Post by: dimitris on July 19, 2025, 01:04:43 AM
Over the past few days, we've spotted signs of sea turtle nests along the beaches of Arillas, Agios Georgios, and Agios Stefanos, and even witnessed some hatching activity!

It's now confirmed: the Caretta caretta (loggerhead sea turtle) has started using our warm, sandy shores to lay their eggs. While this is still a relatively new phenomenon here, it's likely linked to climate change and the reduced fishing activity along Corfu's western coast.

Hi

Last year they were nesting on the North Beach.
Never saw any, but there was a hand written notice asking people not to disturb them
