Our Story

From 2 Friends to 10,000+ Athletes

As childhood friends competing for the Spanish National sailing team, Sigfrid and I grew up with the ocean as our second home, surfing, sailing, diving, and kitesurfing in Spain's pristine waters. Over time, those waters have changed.

In 2018, we started beach cleanups to give back. Everything changed when we found a wetsuit deteriorating underwater during a cleanup dive—we realized our gear was harming the ocean we loved. Sustainable alternatives cost a month's rent. People shouldn't choose between paying bills and making ethical choices.

So we launched a Kickstarter for high-performance, sustainable wetsuits everyone could afford. Today, Sigfrid and I volunteer our time to continue growing Turtl Project and supporting the incredible people helping protect our oceans all around the world. You can become a part by purchasing a wetsuit, joining our cleanups, or reaching out to explore collaborating.

Our Commitment

We reinvest all our profit into growing Turtl Project to support the cleanups, research, restoration, education and people building something bigger than themselves. This isn't just a business— it's our commitment to a better future.

Eco-activism

When you choose a Turtl wetsuit, you're not just buying gear—you're joining the fight by supporitng ocean cleanups, habitat restoration, and policy change.

CLEAN

Cleanups are more than trash collection; they're hands-on training in ocean stewardship. By partnering with schools, camps, and local communities, we create repeatable, scalable efforts that build a culture of care around the coastlines we rely on for sport and life.

Beach Cleanups

We partner with surf schools, camps, and local groups to run regular beach cleanups. Our events removed thousands of pounds of waste over 6 years.

If you are in the Miami area we encourage you to visit www.volunteercleanup.org to find next cleanup near you.

Protect critical areas

Thanks to our dedicated plastic prevention partnership with CleanHub for every wetsuit we sell we are able to prevent 1 kilo (2.2lbs) of trash from reaching our ecosystem's most critical areas.

RESTORE

Restoration multiplies the positive impact of every wetsuit by rebuilding the ecosystems that support ocean life and support our communities. Our projects combine hands-on habitat work with data-driven analysis to provide tangible improvements.

SAFE HATCH INITIATIVE

Together with Moraes of South Florida we launched the Safe Hatch Initiative to increase the number of sea turtle hatchlings making it to the ocean each year.

Close to 60% of the endangered loggerhead sea turtle nests on Virginia Key were being predated by raccoons. Click the link below to learn more, donate or get involved.

Nautilus Ocean Expedition

We've partnered with Team Nautilus on their 2,000-mile unsupported row around Great Britain.

As they push their limits across open water, they're gathering critical environmental data on the health of our coastlines—turning every stroke into science that protects the waters we all share.

Wetsuit Recovery Program

We take old wetsuits on a transformative journey, giving them purpose once again. With meticulous craftsmanship, we repurpose these wetsuits into our Re-Wallet – a stylish and sustainable accessory that embodies our commitment to environmental stewardship.

PREVENT

Prevention is policy in action. We work with lawmakers, NGOs, and industry partners to shape safer materials standards, accountable supply chains, and smarter waste streams. By connecting advocacy to everyday gear, we aim to move the dial from awareness to real, lasting change.

Oceana Alliance Against Ocean Drilling

We've partnered with Oceana UK to support their mission: advancing stronger ocean protections and putting an end to destructive deep-sea drilling.
