Marieta and Pepe: our sponsored turtles

Marieta and Pepe, the two turtles adopted this year, were part of the release held on June 8th to mark World Oceans Day. Both are daughters of Diana, an iconic turtle who returns to our shores every year to lay her eggs and who has become a benchmark for the study and conservation of the species.

In addition, Marieta was equipped with a satellite tracking device that will allow the Oceanogràfic Foundation to collect valuable information about her movements and behavior at sea.

We have a plan and together we are better.

At Agrado Sun Care, protecting your skin and protecting the planet go hand in hand. Caring for the sea, the sun, and the life that lives within them is also part of who we are.

Furthermore, as part of our ESG-CSR plan and commitment to the environment, we are collaborating with the Oceanogràfic Foundation on the Head-Starting project. This project helps protect turtle nests in the Valencian Community and also allows us to closely monitor sea turtles in the open ocean thanks to a satellite tracking device.

And what does the Head-Starting project consist of?

This is an initiative of the Oceanogràfic Foundation that seeks to help more sea turtles survive their first months of life. When the turtles are born, the ARCA del Mar team cares for them for approximately 9 to 12 months. During this time, they grow enough to better defend themselves against predators. This project also serves to learn more about how turtles develop in their early stages.

To continue helping to conserve sea turtles, the Oceanogràfic Foundation uses satellite tracking devices. These devices are placed on the turtles' shells and allow us to track where they move, how they behave, and how they survive at each stage of their life. Thanks to this information, better decisions can be made to protect them. For more information about these projects, visit Oceanographic Foundation

How should you act when you find a stranded animal?

You must call 112 and the public body will contact the Oceanogràfic Foundation.

The Foundation will come to assist the animal, to transport it if necessary and to be treated until it is ready to return to its natural habitat in the sea.
