Cherating Turtle Sanctuary
The Cherating Turtle Sanctuary is a great place for both kids and adults. Established in 1972 and opened to the public in 1988, it acts as a turtle hatchery to protect the turtle eggs laid in the area. Here, you can learn all about local sea turtle species such as the Green, Hawskbill, and Olive Ridley Turtles.
You can view adult and cute baby turtles, which will surely inspire your kids to learn more about wildlife and care for their environment. For a unique experience, you can watch turtles as they come to Cherating Beach to lay their eggs and even release baby turtles into the sea. Spending time at the sanctuary is one of the best things to do in Cherating with kids, and as a parent you’ll be inspired by your own kids as they take their first steps in learning about animal conservation.
