Scubafish Thailand, Sea Turtle Rescue

In Thailand on the island of Ko Haa, a group of Scubafish divers recently rescued three sea turtles struggling for their lives.

It was the end of a beautiful day diving when the boat captain spotted something unusual floating on the surface of the water. As the divers got closer they found a huge discarded fishing net with three entangled turtles, trapped and struggling to breathe.

Dear all,

This week a turtle got saved during a dive by a friend of mine while he was diving on ras marovi, he spent 25 min entangling the poor things and was rewarded with the turtle rushing back to the surface for a gulp of fresh air.
