Best Answer

Their eggs are laid IN the the sand, so, yes :(

Turtles do need land because they arent like fish with gils so they need to breath above water, like humans they dont live in the water everyday.

Turtles live in the sea and only come out to lay their eggs.

Terrapins live in fress water (i.e rives, marshes and lakes) but they can walk on land

Tortoises live only on land only.

Yes, to a very limited extent. Land turtles should not be kept in fish tanks, but tortoises have been known to float between islands.

Most turtles are Amphibian, thus they can live both on land and in the water. Some turtles live only in the water, and some only on land.
