Turtle Matl

Matl โ€“ The Reef Guardian

Matl

Matl, a green turtle, has been a familiar and cherished presence at Wadi Gimal DC Housereef since its first sighting in June 2023.

Known for its tranquil demeanor, Matl often glides gracefully through the reef, blending seamlessly with the vibrant marine life.

With sightings extending into mid-2024, Matl has become a true symbol of the delicate balance within the reef and seagrass ecosystem.
This turtleโ€™s continued presence underscores the importance of conserving Shams Alamโ€™s rich biodiversity for generations to come.
