Sea turtles under treatment
The ARCHELON Sea Turtle Rescue Centre has been operating since 1994 in Glyfada, Attica, right next to the sea.
It was founded by ARCHELON with the support of the Municipality of Glyfada and the Ministry of the Environment and is one of the first Sea Turtle Rescue Centres in the Mediterranean. Its purpose is the treatment and rehabilitation of injured and sick sea turtles and their reintegration into the sea. You can symbolically adopt one or more injured turtles at the Rescue Centre, contributing to the costs of their care and feeding. And of course you can come and meet them at the Rescue Centre, or you can be informed from our website about their progress and release.
