Turtles hatching at Lara beach outside Paphos

Stunning photographs have been caught by the lens of Phileleftheros photojournalist Yiannis Nisiotis on a day trip to Lara beach near Akamas in the Paphos district.

A dedicated turtle conservation and reproduction team oversaw turtle hatchlings make their way into the waves.  The eggs of the Loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta-caretta) hatch approximately seven weeks after they are laid in the sand.
