Turtle Islands Location
6.2170, 118.2527
Turtle Islands sits at 6.2170°N, 118.2527°E, on the coast of Muslim Mindanao, Philippines. The marker on the map shows the spot the readings on this page come from. It usually sits a short distance from the town centre, out on the open water itself, so the numbers stay tied to the coast rather than a generic point inland.
Coastlines bend, headlands focus the water, and the temperature can run noticeably differently between two beaches that look close together on a map. Comparing nearby locations is a quick way to see how local geography is shaping the readings.
