All the guests on the tour jumped in the water to help 💙
Simon told us about spotting this endangered turtle stuck in netting and knowing he needed extra help to free her, and how it felt watching her finally swim away!

You can see the flippers of the turtle splashing at the surface.
I could already see there's something wrong.
We always inspect these floating patches because there's a lot of life around them.
There was this huge shell in there.
I got the guide to come in with his knife and he started trying to cut the turtle free.
He had a pretty hard time getting through the net.
The turtle seemed very calm and wanting our help she wasn't too stressed out.
I got all of my guests to jump in and we all helped stabilizing the turtle.
She stayed in there, she kept calm, she didn't really make it difficult.
It took us quite a while, like 30 to 40 minutes to cut her out.
Then he made sure that there was no net left and no injuries and off she swam.
It was a really good feeling to help this animal.
