Adult sea turtles that used to return to Miri can no longer be found nesting on the beaches. Anglers at the mouth of the Miri coastal river often spot sea turtles in the water.
Recently, an angler named Frederick captured a video of a sea turtle swimming near the stone jetty with his phone. At that time, the turtle was continuously waving its four limbs like oars in the fishing area, swimming in circles underwater below the stone jetty.
