Nusa Dua, Bali – 17 July 2026 – Merusaka Nusa Dua commemorated National Children’s Day by hosting a meaningful Baby Sea Turtle Release on its beachfront. The event reaffirmed the resort’s commitment to sustainable tourism, marine conservation, and environmental education in Bali. Merusaka Nusa Dua organized the activity in collaboration with Balaram Mangrove Heroes Tanjung Benoa. Children from Kolewa Foundation joined the children of in-house guests to celebrate the special occasion while learning about marine conservation.
250 Baby Sea Turtles Released During National Children’s Day
Children and guests released 250 baby sea turtles (tukik) into the ocean during the event. The activity gave participants a memorable hands-on experience while teaching them about endangered marine species and Bali’s coastal ecosystem.
Moreover, children learned that even small actions can make a meaningful difference. They discovered how protecting sea turtles contributes to preserving marine biodiversity for future generations. As a result, the experience encouraged them to develop a stronger sense of environmental responsibility from an early age.
Inspiring Children Through Marine Conservation
The Baby Sea Turtle Release reflects Merusaka Nusa Dua’s commitment to creating meaningful guest experiences beyond luxury hospitality. The resort combines education, conservation, and family activities to inspire positive environmental action.

Every contribution will support the environmental programs led by Balaram Mangrove Heroes Tanjung Benoa.
