Diani Beach, located on Kenya's south coast, serves as a vital nesting site for the endangered green turtle (*Chelonia mydas*).
The nesting season typically spans from December to April, with peak activity observed in January and February.
During this period, female turtles emerge at night to lay eggs, contributing to the conservation of this species.
Local organizations, such as Diani Turtle Watch, actively monitor and protect these nesting sites to ensure the survival of hatchlings.
Visitors can participate in guided turtle walks and support conservation efforts by adhering to established guidelines, including maintaining a respectful distance and avoiding the use of bright lights near nesting areas.
