Conservation of sea turtles in Hong Kong

In direct response to Peter's question (see here) about the Sham Wan Beach and essentially conservation efforts in Hong Kong to protect the only nesting site for Green Turtles.

Actually a lot is done to protect the beach area during the potential nesting period, teams of volunteers and staff from the AFCD aim to make the beach as hospitable as possible and illegal entry onto the beach is subject to a maximum fine of HK$50,000.
