Village des tortues

Village des tortues is a dedicated facility that houses a large collection of turtle species in spacious outdoor and indoor settings designed for their care. The site features multiple habitat zones where different species live according to their natural needs.

This facility originated in the late 1980s as a small rescue and research project for turtles in need of care. It expanded over time and moved to its current location to better accommodate its growing work.

This facility serves as a refuge where visitors can see how different turtle species live and understand their importance in nature. The place shows how people from around the world work together to protect these animals.

The grounds are walkable with paths connecting different areas, and you will encounter both shaded spots and open sections for viewing. Plan for a comfortable pace and bring sun protection since most exploration happens in outdoor spaces.

The facility includes a large glass-covered growing area filled with tropical plants that recreate warm climates for heat-loving species. There is also a collection of shells and cases on display that shows the remarkable diversity of forms these animals possess.
