Pokmaswas Dwi Lestari, a community group consisting of 13 residents in Muara Tembulih village, Ngambur district, West Pesisir regency, Lampung province, has been actively involved in the conservation and protection of endangered animals. The group manages the Ngambur Coastal Park, which houses a turtle conservation facility. With a 210-kilometer coastline directly bordering the Indian Ocean, the West Pesisir regency is a popular spot for sea turtles to lay their eggs. However, due to the decreasing number of sea turtles, the community group took the initiative to create a turtle conservation program.

Since its establishment in 2005, the Ngambur Coastal Park has successfully hatched thousands of turtle eggs, with an average of 800 eggs collected annually. The community group not only patrols the area to find turtle eggs but also purchases back eggs that have already been taken by locals. The group also releases baby turtles back into the ocean as part of their educational tourism program.

Aside from their efforts in hatching turtle eggs, Pokmaswas Dwi Lestari also rescues injured turtles that are stranded on the beach. The group recently saved a wounded turtle, provided traditional medical treatment, and released it back into the ocean.

The conservation efforts have gained attention and support from the community. The natural habitat in the Ngambur Coastal Park is still preserved and provides a safe place for sea turtles to lay their eggs.
