There was a sea turtle named "Monica" in this centre, purely for the visitors to take pictures (our guide said this to us!). Apparently, Monica is NOT an injured sea turtle. She has been in this centre for over 8 years, and she is literally in a small square of water. Tourists comes and pick her and poses for pictures, while she is flapping away her fins.
I tried to complain but I got to know that you have to go to the Kosgoda police station to make a complaint. I am currently in Colombo, and therefore I am unable to do the complaint.
If you visit this place, and if you feel Monica should be free, please go to the Kosgoda police station and make a complaint.

My daughter did a lot of research into finding a turtle sanctuary over a turtle farm.
The whole visit from start to (reluctant) finish was incredible. We were given a tour of the main room, which had a variety of older turtles in. They were there for various reasons. The Albino can't be released as it won't survive, two disabled turtles,one missing both fins on one side were together.
Some are there to recover from being caught up in nets or boat strike. These will be released when they are recovered.
There are four big tanks for the baby turtles, aged from one to four days. They are released at four days.
There is a massive sand pit which is a hatchery and we were privileged to see some hatching out of the sand.
Eco wise, the sanctuary is amazing. They buy turtle eggs from people who would otherwise sell them on the Black Market, so they are hatched and released safely. They clean the beaches (take nappy sacks or carrier bags on a beach with you and fill it with rubbish, sadly it's very common on all the beaches 😞)
Isuru, the manager and grandson of Victor, who started the sanctuary, is a wealth of knowledge. Had some really interesting conversations with him. Make sure to fuss the little dog and her grandmother. As the turtles are released just after sunset, you get a glorious photo op thrown in! Please say Hi to the team from me 😊🐢❤️🌅

Truly a once in a lifetime experience! I’d spoken to Isuru via WhatsApp before hand to ensure we went on a day that was good for releasing the turtles, he was very helpful and informative.
Upon our arrival we paid for our tickets (8000 SLR to visit the centre and release the turtles) which I thought was an extremely good price!
Our tour guide was wonderful. He showed us the baby turtles, the eggs that had been laid and were waiting to hatch, turtles that they’d nursed back to health and more. He told us how they care for the turtles and was more than happy to answer questions. We then visited the gift shop, and bought a few bits to support the turtles.
We had to wait a little while to release the babies, so we went for a walk on the beach and also had a great conversation with Isuru about Sri Lanka’s history, the current politics of the country and more. We exchanged lots of stories.
Before releasing the turtles, we got to see some hatch which was an incredible experience. We then were given a bucket with 25 four day old turtles and we released them into the sea. The owner informed us that the turtles can feel the vibrations of the sea and that this was their call home. It was a truly magical experience.
I cannot recommend this place enough, the turtles are truly well looked after. Thank you so much Isuru and your colleagues. We will be back in the future!

This was a great sea turtle research and conservation center with a good reputation. We went inside to see the baby sea turtles and learn more about sea turtles in the area before releasing 10 sea turtles in the evening. A wonderful experience.

We were able to be part of a group (pre-booked) with the owners to release the hatchlings to the sea in the evening. They did mention it can only happen based on a lot of factors related to weather, sea and availability. But we were fortunate to witness this with our child.
Highly recommend them to do their tour and try to do it.

This is said to be one of the oldest sea turtle hatcheries in the country. They have about 5 breeds of turtles who are being taken care before releasing into the ocean. Staff is well trained and knowledgeable. Highly recommend place.

The babies are released on evening of day three of their lives. I do not know if the general public can take part! I suggest you either ring them, email or ask on their facebook page! Good luck!
