La Tortue ou l'Ecalle, ÃÂle Tortue or Turtle Island is a small rocky islet off the north-eastern coast of Saint Barthélemy in the Caribbean. Its highest point is above sea level. Referencing tortoises, it forms part of the Réserve naturelle nationale de Saint-Barthélemy with several of the other northern islets of St Barts.
The island has been recognised as an Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International because it supports breeding colonies of royal terns and laughing gulls, as well as a few pairs of red-billed tropicbirds.
