Turtles find their way back to the beach they were born on through a process called natal homing. Natal homing is believed to be guided by the Earth's geomagnetic field, as well as cues such as the unique scent of the beach where they hatched. This remarkable ability enables turtles to navigate across vast distances of the ocean to return to their original nesting grounds to lay their own eggs.
