Where to see sea turtles in Bengaluru

Jayamahal Marine Tunnel - Part of the city’s largest aquarium complex. Guests stand beneath a clear tunnel while sea turtles and rays glide overhead. Educational panels explain migration patterns and conservation efforts.
Bannerghatta Biological Park - Features freshwater turtle tanks within its reptile section. The park focuses on land animals but includes basic information on India’s coastal turtle species.

The Jayamahal tunnel remains the only permanent marine display offering a close view of sea turtles in motion. Mornings before noon are quieter and better for photography.
