Four brave turtles, Nori, Stella, Pebbles, and Cinnamon, who were once very sick, are now back in the big, blue Indian Ocean! Many caring people helped them get strong again. They traveled safely in special cars and were carefully put into the water. Now, little trackers on their shells send messages, showing everyone how these amazing turtles swim free, helping us learn how to protect them and their ocean home.
Cape Town’s Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), like the Helderberg MPA, are special places where the ocean and coast are carefully cared for to protect plants, animals, and people’s way of life. These areas are alive with colorful kelp forests, busy fish, and playful shorebirds, offering both a home for wildlife and a classroom for curious explorers. The community comes together each year to celebrate and protect these treasures, understanding that the ocean’s health depends on everyone’s care. Through science, art, and teamwork, Cape Town keeps its marine world vibrant and full of hope for the future.
