A Historic Marine Icon

The Loggerhead Turtle (Caretta caretta) has long been intertwined with the history of the Cayman Islands. When Christopher Columbus first encountered the islands in 1503, he named them “Las Tortugas” because of the abundance of sea turtles inhabiting the surrounding waters. Centuries later, the Loggerhead Turtle remains an enduring symbol of the Caribbean’s rich marine ecosystem and cultural identity.

Legendary Ocean Traveler

Loggerhead Turtles are known for their extraordinary migrations across vast stretches of ocean, often returning to the same nesting beaches where they began life. Their remarkable endurance and instinctive navigation have made them one of the ocean’s most admired marine reptiles. In the waters surrounding the Cayman Islands, these turtles represent resilience, survival, and the timeless bond between the islands and the sea.
