As sea turtles are air breathing reptiles, they need to surface to breathe. Sea turtles can hold their breath for several hours, depending upon the level of activity. A resting or sleeping turtle can remain underwater for 4-7 hours.
It depends on the species but most aquatic turtles live to be about 40 years, while sea turtles can live over 175 years. Tortoises can live for about 100-150 years.
