Finding turtles near Cape Town
Hello,
Does anyone know of a place near Cape Town to see turtles in the wild?
Strange request, I know. I'm a turtle fanatic.
Thanks.

There may be other turtles that I'm not aware of, but the only ones of which I know are the turtles on the coast of KwaZulu-Natal. This website, for example, lists them:

Is your interest specifically in turtles, or will tortoises do? If you can settle for tortoises, there are several species in the nature reserves in and around Cape Town.
