STC Turtle Tracker

Sea Turtle Conservancy

About this app

Sea Turtle Conservancy’s (STC) Turtle Tracker App lets you follow the migrations of sea turtles that have been tagged with a satellite tracking device from nesting beaches, in-water research, and rehabilitation centers. Maps are updated as new data become available for active turtles. Follow along as we learn about the movements of sea turtles through our Turtle Tracker App.
Sea turtles are ancient creatures and are among the most important indicators of the health of the world’s marine and coastal ecosystems. Whether sea turtles ultimately vanish from the planet or whether they remain a wild and thriving part of the natural world, will speak volumes about both the general health of the planet and the ability of humans to sustainably coexist with the diversity of life on Earth.
STC, founded in 1959 by world-renowned sea turtle expert Dr. Archie Carr, is the world’s oldest sea turtle research and conservation group. STC works to conserve and recover sea turtle populations through research, education, advocacy and protection of the natural habitats upon which they depend.

Ratings and reviews

I found this app to be a little bare bones. It's missing features that I believe would bring more enjoyment. I'd like to see a favorites tab so I can find my fav turtles quickly and a listing of the turtle type on the info page would be nice (then again I am a bit of a novice and the pictures probably make it easier to discern). All in all glad this app exists but please update it a bit.

Good app, easy to use. The only issue I have is it loads very slow, sluggish, it is a newer app so I'm sure they're still working the kinks out but I'm excited for it to improve, it's very cool to track the turtles.

Love looking at where the turtles are but its EXTREMELY LAGGY. I wish they would fix this cuz it's an awesome app.
