Turtle Hatchling Release
In partnership with the National Park, a secure incubation center has been established at Six Senses Con Dao to safeguard eggs from threats including poaching. After approximately 60 days of incubation, hatchlings are released under established Con Dao National Park guidance as part of our "Let's Get Cracking" project. This offers guests an eye-opening experience as they witness – at a safe distance – these precious creatures making their way to the ocean without disrupting their first steps to the sea.

We share insights into how female green sea turtles lay their eggs on our resort beach and the challenges they face, from predators to poaching.
