or Serangan Island is where the Turtle Conservation and Education Centre is.
It is near Sanur
It also has beaches where people go fishing, swimming & kitesurfing there.
There are several small warungs on the beach serving simple food & drinks
Accessible by car or motorbike
Turtle Farms & Zoos are on a tiny island nearby but tour operators still refer to it as Turtle Island
Here at the zoos (or 'conservation' centres as often called) is where people go to pick up, sit on, kick the turtles & have their photo taken with the caged/chained animals
If you do a search, from memory there are posts re visiting the Turtle Conservation and Education Centre & how worthwhile it was
There is some info at the link below explaining how to get to Serangan,the Turtle Conservation and Education Centre (TCEC)
And also photos,videos, blogs about the turtle zoos
I often go to Serangan..to the beach
