In 1987, a planned hotel development on İztuzu Beach in southwestern Turkey was going to threaten breeding grounds for the loggerhead sea turtle. Several conservationists, including June Haimoff, David Bellamy, Peter Günther, Nergis Yazgan, Lily Venizelos and Keith Corbett, achieved that a moratorium was called. One year later, the area was declared the Köyceğiz-Dalyan Special Environmental Protection Area.

Venizelos was awarded The Global 500 – The Roll of Honour for Environmental Achievement of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) in 1987. In 2015, Venizelos received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Sea Turtle Society in recognition of her work for the conservation of sea turtles.

Beginning in 1983, Venizelos founded the Mediterranean Association to Save the Sea Turtles (MEDASSET), established in the United Kingdom in 1988 and in Greece in 1993.

Laganas Bay on Zakynthos Island is the largest nesting ground for the endangered loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) in the Mediterranean. Since the 1970s/1980s, the nesting beaches were increasingly threatened by tourism development.
