There is a turtle sanctuary near Dalyan, started many years back by June Haimoff (MBE). During her sailing days she discovered Iztuzu beach and along with other environmentalists launched a successful campaign to save the beach from development. Kaplan June as she became known, founded the sanctuary which is still there today and is where our turtle team visited. It’s a fascinating story, see https://newint.org/features/web-exclusive/2015/12/22/june-haimoff-environmentalist
