A native of the Latin American Caribbean, Estéban is quite the popular turtle whose amigos were swimming around the boat while he received his tag. Let’s see if he is still the life of the party down in the Caribbean around the nesting beaches!
Estéban’s cousin, Stephanie, finished 2nd in the 2007 Great Turtle Race over in the Pacific Ocean, losing to Billy’s cousin by a flipper. This time, Estéban has a secret weapon: his coach for the Race is Olympic gold medalist Amanda Beard!
