Kyushu: Yakushima Island Turtle Hatching, Kagoshima. Yakushima is the main North Pacific nesting site. Female turtles will return to the place they were born – some 25 to 30 years prior – on Yakushima every year between May and August. Most of them end up on Nagata Inaka Beach on the northwest of the island. #Sharing #gonokajapan #japanese #socialmedia #Facebook #connection #beautifuljapan #visitjapan #japantravel #japanesenationalpark
