Sea Turtle Association of Japan

The sound of waves, the sea breeze in the trees, the sand that blows
against your skin... The power of the sun at noon, the silence at night.
An astonishing number and variety of living things. A beach where people
can freely relax and enjoy themselves. At night, sea turtles come ashore
without a care...We are taking action to restore such beaches to our world.

 Thank you for coming.
