Three species land to nest in Brunei Darussalam's beaches. These are the Green 
  turtle (Chelonia mydas), the Hawsbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) and the Olive 
  Ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea). The most common is the Olive Ridley turtle. 
  The nesting beaches are distributed along the coast stretching     
  from Pelompong island (formerly Brunei headland) to Belait    
  beach. However, the Olive Ridleys are the most common 
  species to land and nest in the northwest part of Brunei 
  Darussalam. The nesting season in Brunei Darussalam 
  coincides with the northeast monsoon period. It starts in 
  November and ends in June. A total of 291 eggs were laid in 
  December 1998, ninety in January 1999 and 283 in February 
  1999.
