Description

Braamspunt is a naturally formed beach of sand and shells, which has become clearly visible since 2012. It came into being after the well-known Matapica nesting beach disappeared due to land loss and sand and clay particles flowed west with the current. For years, turtles have been coming to the beaches of the Surinamese coast to lay their eggs there. Which is especially interesting for students to experience.

The sea turtle season starts around the end of January and ends in July. Especially the month of June is suitable to go to the beach because the 2 of the four species of turtles, that come to Suriname, lay their eggs and there is also the chance to see baby turtles crawling on the beach.

Dress code:
Dark clothing: Sea turtles have blurred vision outside of the water, so they are very wary of anything moving around them. We limit their ability to see us by wearing dark (preferably black) clothing, including:

Long trousers (or zip-off trousers) , so that you don't have to worry about skin-irritating plants, ticks or mosquitoes during walks.

A long-sleeved shirt or jacket for the cold and to prevent mosquitoes from gaining easy access.

Comfortable boots or running shoes, because we're going for a walk. Leave the new shoes at home, the last thing you want is blisters.
