Carmabi
The Carmabi Foundation is all about nature! We started out as a Marine Research Institute in 1955 and have since then broadly extended our activities on the island of Curaçao. Currently we actively manage five national parks, The Christoffel National Park; the largest national park of the island. Shete Boka National Park; an important Sea Turtle nesting area. The Curacao Rif Mangrove Park; a special city park that consists of Mangrove trees. The Curacao Marine Park; protecting the reef and conduct scientific marine research to make a difference in restoring our coral reef. National Park Rif St. Marie-Hermanus; our newest National Park that is currently being developed. Besides managing national parks and conduct marine research, our team is also expanding their educational activities and we are conducting terrestrial research on our island and - of course - in our national parks, to better understand our important nature. We believe it is crucial to share our findings with visitors of the island and with the people of Curaçao. Through our educational programs and activities we strive to engage the local youth with nature and all of its beauty.

Sea Turtle Conservation Curaçao Stcc
Sea Turtle Conservation Curaçao is a non-profit organization, based on the island of Curaçao, that provides protection for sea turtles, marine animals, and their habitat. We focus mainly on rescue, rehabilitation, and research activities, as well as education and creating awareness within the community. Several times a week, dedicated volunteers check the beaches for nesting activity, injured individuals, and other notable situations. The moment we find an injured turtle, we either offer immediate help or take it to the vet in case of serious injuries. Scientific monitoring takes place so that we can protect Sea Turtles even better in the future. To this end, we patrol the beaches where nesting activity is expected between June and December. Here, nests are monitored for the number of eggs, and the behavior of nesting turtles is mapped. If necessary, nests are moved to a safe location. In addition, photographs are taken of individuals swimming around the island so that we can track their development over the years. This is important because many sea turtles are currently growing tumors due to the virus Fibropapillomatosis. OUR VISION Our vision is to open a rehabilitation center for Sea Turtles on the island. Curaçao is one of the four biggest known places worldwide for Fibropapillomatosis (FP) outbreaks. The rehabilitation center will give us the opportunity to take more care of FP turtles and create an international hub where scientists, researchers, and vets can focus on this deadly disease. Ideally, the new rehab center would be big enough to take care of 10 sea turtles at the same time. REGIONAL IMPACT STCC is a proud member of the Wider Caribbean Sea Turtle Concervation Network (WIDECAST), and it is through our WIDECAST partnership that our conservation activities are strengthend to include a regional impact. IMPORTANT NOTE If you see a sea turtle or nest in danger, please call or WhatsApp: 664 7970
