The attraction is to go down very narrow stairs to a small cave where there are some turtles. The space is tiny and is shared with about twenty people who crowd to get into the water. The situation seemed disrespectful to me and the turtles appeared clearly disturbed. I went straight back up: in my opinion this is a real case of animal abuse. I don't understand how this place can be so famous, when even a simple zoo would guarantee better conditions.

Very nice to see the turtles! But it didn't feel right, when we heard they were trapped and saw so many people go into the water and feed and touch them. So this itself did not go!

I visited the turtle sanctuary and it was a nice experience, but not entirely satisfying. The turtles are divided into three pools and the most engaging part is definitely the fact that you can go into the water with them. Seaweeds are provided to give to the turtles, so they get very close and swim all around, making the moment suggestive. That said, it’s fair to point out that some people have been bitten, probably from food-related excitement, so a little attention is needed. What also puzzled me the most is that turtles are not in a natural environment, but in an artificial space created by man, which takes away some of the authenticity of the experience. Overall it is an interesting visit, especially for those who want close contact with turtles, but personally I expected something more natural.

The experience appears like it could be nice but they do not moderate how many people go at each time slot. We went at 12 and it was crowded and chaotic. We waited a long time and then people kept yelling and overreacting in the water. There is only one way in/out of the cave and one stair case in/out of the water and it was not managed well. People throw their seaweed food and if it floats to close to you, you could get bit. We did not stay long and did not enjoy it but the turtles are beautiful.

You get to a place where there are a lot of people queuing up to go down very narrow stairs and reach a cave where there are quite a few turtles. In my opinion, you captivate, inside a natural pool and share a very small space with 20:00 to 30 people who push to reach the water. I personally felt sorry for the poor turtles. I certainly didn’t pay to go down to see those turtles and went to the Hotel thinking it was still a joke, in fact, in my opinion, this is a case of animal abuse. I can't understand that this attraction has such fame when any zoo would have the animals in better shape.

You get to Salaam caves, they give you seaweed, and you go down steps into the caves where there are turtles in the water, you get in the water with them and you hand feed them the seaweed, It’s great fun but you only have 30 mins with them which goes by to quick, try to get there early before to many people turn up, When you come out there is changing facilities and a shower so you can change your clothes which is good. Also shop and restaurant there to have a drink and take in the views,

Our excursion guide was on time and very pleasant. He pointed out different sites during our ride to the caves and explained what to expect.

A truly horrible experience as a defender of animal rights and against their abuse. Many people complained that more turtles had bitten them, a normal reaction if they are stressed in a small pool full of people. Moreover, the team working there is aggressive and rude.

We were a bit disappointed at first when we saw a small natural pool with many people among the turtles. Personal contact with the Schildies, including feeding, was then really an unforgettable experience. We were in the south of the island. You would have actually gotten there with the rental car and could have parked calmly. The journey was more expensive than the entrance fee.
