Sea Turtle Conservation Curaçao (STCC) is working to protect sea turtles on the island, which face threats like pollution, loss of nesting sites, and being accidentally caught in fishing gear. The presence of these turtles is crucial for maintaining healthy marine ecosystems. They help control various marine populations, which contributes to the ocean’s overall balance. STCC focuses on community education and conservation efforts to safeguard turtle habitats and ensure the survival of these ancient creatures that enrich scuba diving experiences in the region.
