Huge turtle pulled out of the swimming pool

Employees at a resort in Kandima on the Maldives got a surprise, when an unexpected visitor turned up in one of the hotel's villa pools.

The turtle apparently fell into the pool while exploring the beach nearby at a resort and became trapped. One of the resort's workers was forced to jump into the pool to rescue the sea creature, which took some persuading to leave.

Eventually, the unexpected guest was bought to the surface and released back into the wild.
