After PTT deployment on Saziley beach in the southern part of Mayotte, the turtle has moved to the waters of the Eastern side of the island and has returned back to Saziley, probably for further egg-layings. A short time later she has left Mayotte reaching another two islands of the Comores, Moheli and Njazidja, and then turned in south-west direction pointing to mainland Africa. Now she is swimming northwards along the coast of Mozambique.
