What To Expect
Join us for a unique experience in Puerto Vallarta, where conservation comes alive up close. Upon arrival, you'll be welcomed by this dedicated sea turtle conservation team with a refreshing drink at the restaurant next to the camp, part of the same conservation project. We'll start with an interactive talk about sea turtles, their life cycle, and local efforts to protect them. You'll discover how each nest is carefully monitored to ensure the survival of the hatchlings and how you can be part of this mission. Then, we'll walk through the conservation area and beach as the sun sets. The highlight arrives when you participate in releasing the baby turtles into the ocean. Feeling their energy and watching them embark on their first journey is a soul-touching experience. At the end, you'll receive a symbolic sea turtle adoption certificate by email as a memento of your contribution to their conservation. This experience is ideal for families, couples, and nature lovers seeking to leave a positive impact during their visit to Vallarta.

5.00Watching the tiny turtles make their way toward the waves at sunset was such an amazing experience! The guides were able to answer any and all of our questions and their humor was very welcomed. They're clearly passionate about conservation while still making things entertaining for younger guests. The drink ticket was also much appreciated. Going in late December had great weather, but also meant it was the end of the season for releasing turtles. We were able to get in on the last release just in time!
Turtle Power!

5.00The turtle release was amazing. Not only did we get educated on these magnificent creatures, we were also able to be part of the next step in their birthday. It was incredible, the backdrop and time of day was perfect. It happened at sunset so the video and pictures were beautiful. The only piece to improve is where we were stood when learning about the turtles. We were standing between a fence and parked cars. Everything else *chef’s kiss*.
A wonderful experience!

5.00This was so much fun! We even got to release 2 turtles. The only suggestion is to open a gift shop and use a microphone.
