Aussie – The Globe-Trotting Legend
Aussie, an adult female green sea turtle, was first documented on September 21, 2016, when she was tagged by the NCW team at Ras Baridi Beach, Saudi Arabia. From there, Aussie began her journey across the Red Sea, eventually reaching the Egyptian coast. Since October 2016, she has been regularly sighted at Marsa Abu Dabbab and Hermes every year, becoming a familiar and cherished presence. Her travels highlight the vast range and incredible adaptability of sea turtles.
