Saving Sea Turtles in Egypt: Our Red Sea Conservation Mission

Premiered at the 43rd International Sea Turtle Symposium, this video presents the mission of Turtle Watch Egypt 2.0 along the Red Sea coast. Combining scientific research, citizen science, and community engagement, the initiative tracks local turtle populations, educates divers and school children, and collaborates with dive centers. Through international partnerships and field surveys, the project works continuously to safeguard marine turtles and their vital habitats in Egypt.

As we celebrate 25 years of the IOSEA Marine Turtle MOU, we showcase some of the people, initiatives and communities that have contributed to marine turtle conservation across the region. Visit our Story Map to discover their stories.
