Turtle Islands, situated off the coast of Yele in Sierra Leone, is a picturesque destination featuring a stunning stretch of beach that spans several kilometers. The sand here gleams with a unique hue, ranging from soft golden to rich amber depending on the time of day, offering a beautiful contrast against the crystal-clear waters. Visitors to Turtle Islands can indulge in a range of activities including surfing, given the islands' ideal wave conditions, snorkeling in the vibrant coral reefs, and kayaking through serene waters. Despite the plethora of activities to enjoy, Turtle Islands has few amenities, so plan your trip accordingly, although it does have lifeguards on duty to ensure the safety of all beachgoers. With the absence of amenities such as bathrooms, and with dogs not allowed on the beach, visitors are encouraged to come prepared to fully enjoy their day in this natural paradise.
