Is this the turtle that the local fishermen call Fatima?She's always around the boats by the floating fish restaurants.I saw a smaller one too the other day but unfortunately didnt have my camera with me.Mind you wouldnt have been able to download the pic onto the forum anyway!

We took this video just in front of the Iskele Restaurant near the Amphitheatre. 22.09.2012. The fisherman was preparing his fish lunch and fed the bits to the Turtle. The road noise is due to the short cut being used while renovations are being done at the Amphitheatre.

This clip of a baby turtle was at the Golbasi Restaurant on the road to Iztuzu beach

Super! We saw one last june laying it's eggs on the beach. Quite funny. Going to Turkey for years, visiting Turtle Beach amongs others and never seeing a big turtle. And then there you are, on the phonebooth at Calis Beach after a nice dinner phoning home like ET, and something big is coming out of the water onto the beach. Good to see locals were immidiately reacting to the turtle and telling people not to use flash while photographing, giving the turtle the opportunity to lay it's eggs quitly. Also nice to see the people listening to the locals. Amazing.
