Sea turtles can be obtained by cooking a raw sea turtle with level 82 Cooking. Sea turtles heal 250 to 2,050 life points each, depending on Constitution level.

The minimum Constitution level to receive the full amount of healing from this food is 82.

With level 82 Cooking and cooking gauntlets, sea turtles will have a 25% burn rate. By using a Chef's delight from a barrel in a player-owned house, which raises a player's cooking level by 5%, with cooking gauntlets and level 98 Cooking, players will burn roughly 15%. With level 99 Cooking and the Cooking cape equipped (or a max, completionist, or trimmed completionist cape that has consumed the cape), players can avoid burning sea turtles altogether.

Sea turtles are difficult to sell as there are other foods that heal a similar amount of life points that are more available.

There is a spawn in the Temple of Aminishi near Ahoeitu the Chef.

Trivia

• Cooked sea turtles and their raw counterparts were given a graphical update on 5 March 2018. The same update also allowed them to be obtained through Deep Sea Fishing, thus making them obtainable in Ironman Mode.
• Sea turtles can be found swimming in the waters of the Everlight Dig Site and around the Anachronia Dinosaur Farm island.
