Turtle Release at Bintan Resorts – Join the Magic on 31 May & 7 June

Imagine standing on a soft sandy beach, watching tiny baby turtles make their way to the sea for the first time. It’s not just a beautiful moment—it’s a memory that stays with you forever. On 31 May & 7 June 2025, Bintan Resorts invites you to be part of a heartwarming event: the release of Hawksbill turtles at Laguna Beach.
Laguna Beach is a peaceful stretch of coast in Bintan, shared by three resorts—Banyan Tree Bintan, Angsana Bintan, and Cassia Bintan. These resorts are more than just places to relax. They are also home to a special turtle hatchery center, where sea turtle eggs are protected until they are ready to hatch.
Why Hawksbill Turtles Matter
The turtles being released are Hawksbill turtles, known for their beautifully patterned shells. Sadly, these turtles are critically endangered. That means they are at serious risk of disappearing from our oceans forever.
But Hawksbill turtles play an important role in keeping the ocean healthy. They eat sea sponges that grow on coral reefs. If the sponges grow too much, they can harm the corals. So in a way, these turtles are helping to protect coral reefs, which are home to many fish and sea creatures.
When you take part in the turtle release, you’re not just seeing something cute—you’re helping nature, too.
Join for Free When You Stay at the Resorts
The best part? If you stay at Banyan Tree, Angsana, or Cassia Bintan during the turtle release, you can join the event for free.
It’s a perfect activity for families, couples, or solo travelers. You’ll learn about the life of sea turtles, how the hatchery protects them, and then watch them make their way into the sea. Some guests even call it the highlight of their vacation.
Each resort offers its own charm and eco-friendly activities:
- Banyan Tree Bintan – A peaceful, luxury escape surrounded by nature. You can also take part in nature walks and learn about local wildlife.
- Angsana Bintan – A lively and welcoming resort, great for families and beach lovers. Join fun and educational marine talks or beach cleanups.
- Cassia Bintan – A playful, modern resort with apartment-style rooms. Perfect for families and groups looking for a relaxed beach vibe.
All three resorts care deeply about the environment, and by staying here, you’re supporting their efforts to protect sea life.
