Sex on the beach at Exmouth

Now Ive got your attention!!!!.  We went down each morning to see the turtles who are in their droves here, ready to come up the beach to lay their eggs.  They are actually a couple of months early I think.    We could count at least 12 or more each day.   They were in really close to the shore and we could watch them mate.  It was an amazing sight, some males and females having multiple partners  ( up to 5), one after the other.   These two are locked in an embrace, just missed the other turtles little face as they nuzzled each other before getting into the right "position"

This big bloke was stuffed after lots of ladies visited him.  He had to come ashore twice to take a breather.   What a lucky stud he was.

Just getting into the right place at the right time with the waves crashing around them.
It was a really nice opportunity to see these beautiful creatures up close and we were quite excited every time we saw them.
