Turtle: The Incredible Journey

If you love the ocean and its creatures as much as I do, you'll really enjoy this movie. It tells the story of loggerhead turtles living in the Atlantic ocean. Incredibly they are born on the beaches of Florida and travel 10,000s of miles to their lifetime across the Atlantic ocean and back again. The story follows one turtle in particular and shows the beauty and danger she faces to complete her purpose in life – return to the beach where she was born and lay her own batch of eggs. The photography is amazing! The narration is excellent. The film only becomes a little bit "preachy" towards the end – but I applaud the producers for their efforts to educate us. It is a 2011 film and available now on DVD, Blu-ray and even Netflix. I highly recommend it! Well worth 80 min. of your time.
