A sea turtle over the sandy ocean floor
The sea turtle travels through the water with the seabed beneath it. Its shell, head, and broad flippers form the main features of the animal, while the pale sand establishes its marine surroundings. The scene captures a sea turtle moving through its ocean habitat rather than resting on land.
How sea turtles move at sea
Sea turtles use their long front flippers to propel themselves through the water, while the rear flippers help with steering and balance. Their streamlined shells make swimming more efficient, but they cannot pull their heads and flippers fully inside as many land turtles can. Although they spend most of their lives at sea, females return to land to lay eggs.
Real-world colors of the sea turtle and seabed
- Shell: commonly olive, brown, reddish brown, gray, or patterned with several earthy shades
- Head and neck: often brown, olive, gray, or yellowish with darker markings
- Front and rear flippers: usually similar to the head, sometimes with mottled scales
- Underside: generally cream, pale yellow, or light tan
- Sandy seabed: typically cream, beige, golden tan, or pale gray
