Green Sea Turtle

About

Green sea turtles are the gentle giants of Baa Atoll seagrass meadows and reef flats. Larger than hawksbills, they can weigh up to 200 kg and are distinguished by their smooth, olive-brown carapace. In the Maldives, green turtles are commonly spotted at cleaning stations, where they hover motionless while cleaner fish attend to their shells.
