Visit Hawksill sea turtles on Qeshm Island, Iran
These turtles are critically endangered in International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) red list in all around the world. They are so close to be extinct in nature. This turtle is one of five sea turtle species in Persian Gulf and Oman Sea that she nests in sandy beach of Shibderaz village. The eggs hatch out from May to late July after about two months protection in an appropriate hatchery site.
Seeing turtles laying eggs and tiny babies hatching out of eggs are amazing nature events those attract many tourists to Shibderaz village.
