TURTLE: THE INCREDIBLE JOURNEY is the story of a little loggerhead turtle, which follows in the path of her ancestors on one of the most extraordinary journeys in the natural world. Born on a beach in Florida, she rides the Gulf Stream all the way to the frozen north and ultimately swims around the entire North Atlantic to Africa and back to the beach where she was born. But the odds are stacked against her just one in 10,000 thousand turtles survive the journey.
Along the way she faces many hazards, she loses her brothers and sisters in the Sargasso Sea, comes face to face with creatures of the deep and nearly dies at the hands of fishermen. A sunfish guides her to safety and a humpback whale shows her the way north. And when she finally reaches the frozen north, she sees the greatest celebration of life on the Earth but she also discovers deep and powerful changes happening in the oceans - the ice is melting and sea levels are rising it could halt the Gulf Stream, flood the turtle's birthing beaches and end a way of life.
Then her calling comes, she must return home.
Under a million stars, she crawls out of the sea to lay her own eggs and keep Turtle: The Incredible Journey alive.
