Good job with the lighting! All too often turtle viewing uses lighting that is not a good idea!!

i've read that they follow a 'magnetic map' that they are born with that acts like a compass, they can determine subte changes in the earth's magnetic field and head for a target that they know instinctually. that and light, i hear its lighter on the horizon at night and artificial lights can disorient the little guys. not sure bout daytime, i guess they just recognise water.

Mother Nature and natural instinct directs them to the water. How is that for an answer. Honestly, its the best I can do.
