'A Turtle Festival', sounds interesting? There is one that happens this side of the planet in Velas, a small pristine village on the Konkan coast. It's a festival designed to create awareness about the species that is on the verge of extinction. With the help of villagers and local conservation groups, these rare Olive Ridley Turtles eggs are protected from natural adversities and predators. And it's an unforgettable experience to see the baby turtles struggling to make way out of the nest, take their first steps and making their way into the sea. You also can explore the Velas village, visit the Harihareshwar temple, beaches, Bankort Fort and much more. Experience this offbeat marvel which has attracted many tourists and maybe now you?
