The popular, but endangered leatherback turtle and four other species choose Big Bay as their annual nesting                site.  Viewing the spectacle of this giant (1500lbs/12 foot) turtle using its large flippers to inch its way unto the              beach, carving out a large basin in the sand, laying over 100 eggs and tedious journey back to the ocean.                         Within  4 to 5 days another spectacle of hundreds of hatchings shuttle on their journey into the ocean.

Turtle watch guides play an extremely important role in the protection of the adults and their hatchlings from               predators- both human and animals.

• Surfing/Riding the waves – November to March:

During this period, the powerful North Atlantic storms produce swells (waves) averaging 4 ft to 6ft providing                an ideal occasion for the sport.  A regular short surf board/rubber surf matt/belly board are suitable fixtures.                Many residents of the village are avid surfers and are positioned at our resort to provide the basics in the sport .

This is the ideal period for comfortable swimming occurring when the North Atlantic currents are at their                      weakest.
