Meet Dalia, the Graceful Hawksbill Turtle

Dalia is an adult female hawksbill turtle who has made the vibrant coral reefs of Na’ama Bay her home. Known for her elegant swimming and gentle presence, she was spotted gracefully gliding through the waters or foraging among the coral.

With her distinctive markings and a shell measuring about 70 cm, Dalia has become a familiar sight to those who frequent the bay.

By adopting Dalia, you will contribute to the ongoing efforts to enhance marine turtle conservation in the Red Sea.
