Go past the power station and then the garden centre on your right, then as you go round the next right hand bend in the road you will see a turn for Algadi, be carefull as it is only about 100 meters after the bend starts, then just follow the road in, you cant miss it.

Geoff is right, but I quite like 'Idiot proof Directions'!



From Girne take the main Rd East, past Lemar & through Karakum (watch out for the speed cameras), past Catalcoy and after a couple of miles take the left fork to Essentepe. After a few miles pass the power station on your left and the garden centre on your right.



Geoff is correct, the left hand turn to Alagadi is very sharp, but there are normally 'Turtle Project' signs at the junction.



Drive straight down into the village, passing Benoz Fish Restaurant (which is very good!) on your right. Shortly after that the road forks left & right in front of St Cathleens Restaurant, (which is also very good!), take the right hand fork to a 't' junction with modern villas in front of you, turn right, when the road peters out, turn left onto the dirt road, you're there!



The 'Goat Shed' has a Turtle painted on it.

Many thanks for great instructions on how to get there. We all enjoyed the evening although there was only one Turtle released and that was struggling to get into the water.



Once again grateful thanks
