Click here to see quotes from Ella.
**Ella** is one of the main protagonists of *Sammy & Co* and its prequel film *A Turtle's Tale 2: Sammy's Escape from Paradise*. She is a student in Lulu's class in the reef village located in the Southern Seas, and a granddaughter of Sammy and Shelly.

## Appearance

Ella is a baby green sea turtle with green flippers, green carapace, and green eyes.

## Personality

Unlike her best friend Ricky, Ella is a pragmatic, sensible, and thoughtful young turtle. Having inherited her grandfather Sammy's great wisdom, she avoids diving head-first into adventures like Ricky, who often reacts to the provocations of the Rockfish who get their kicks from winding up the turtles.

Ella knows that the ocean can be very dangerous, which makes her less adventurous than Ricky, a sensible, thoughtful, and non-arguing girl. She's nice, tender, very loyal, empathic, forgiving, and altruistic towards her friends. Ella can be considered the teacher's pet since she is the smartest student of her class who likes to study at school and according to "Ella's Ego", she has won nearly all school competitions and has the best results from numerous tests. She also tends to be obsessive-compulsive and prefers to have everything in the reef be "perfect", and she really resents unfairness as revealed in "A Perfect Ocean". And, as seen in Sweet Scorpfish and The Rival, she often is flirtatious with whoever shows interest in her.

But just because Ella is more down-to-earth and prefers studying, doesn't mean she still wants to be an explorer like her grandfather used to be, as revealed in "Fortune and Fib Telling". She has a deep admiration for her grandparents, Sammy and Shelly, who both used to explorers before they found the reef village.
