Discover Kosgoda Turtle Hatchery
Everything you need to know before you go
The Kosgoda Turtle Hatchery was established in 1981 by the Wild Life Protection Society of Sri Lanka to protect its turtles from extinction. It is located in close proximity to tourist areas in Galle and surroundings. The Hatchery collects eggs and hatch them safely away from sea and land predators. Some people collect turtle eggs for consumption in this part of the beach and establishment of the Hatchery has put an end to this. Thousands of turtles are released to the sea every year with the hope of increasing these endangered species .
