Hello sunshine! My name is Sol and I’m sol excited to be swimming in this year’s Tour de Turtles marathon! I’ve teamed up with the folks at Caribbean-Sol, who make clean, non-toxic sun care products, to raise awareness about poor water quality, a major threat to sea turtles and the ocean environment. Even if it isn’t direct pollution, harmful toxins from things like sunscreen, fertilizer and pesticides are sneakily making their way towards the ocean and can enter our food supply. Totally not tubular. Luckily, I’ve teamed up with my sponsors at Caribbean-Sol who are going to help me spread the word about the importance of keeping our waterways clean. Hope you’ll all cheer me on during the race this year. Catch ya on the flip side!

I was named by my Sponsor, Caribbean Sol. Check out my marathon migration map, where you can follow along as I swim to raise awareness about the threat of Water Quality to sea turtles. Please help me raise awareness about my cause by supporting me!
