This island is not only the world’s best beach because of its white sandy beach and turquoise waters. It is also a nesting ground of sea turtles. At the start of the year, 196 sea turtle hatchlings were recorded in different parts of Boracay and were subsequently released to the sea. The Community Environment and Natural Resources Office (CENRO) in the island and the private sector collaborate to protect and conserve the sea turtles.
