Caretta Caretta Turtles
The Loggerhead sea turtles (or also known as Caretta-caretta) are the only marine turtles nesting in Greece and the Mediterranean. They can be distinguished from other turtles by their large heads, reddish-brown shells and yellow/brown skin, while they are considered to be one of the oldest species in the world. An adult Loggerhead grows to a length of 1.0-1.2m, weights between 100-350 kg and can live for around 65 years.
