Where sea turtle study and conservation is concerned, Puerto Vallarta is very special indeed. It’s one of the only places in the world where the mother sea turtle comes right up onto the beach to lay her eggs! That's great for continued research of sea turtle nesting in Puerto Vallarta, and for general awareness of trends in the turtle community.
Nuevo Vallarta beach and its sea turtle nests are both protected by law, which is helpful. Unfortunately though, many of the baby sea turtles don’t make it across the beach and into the ocean because of the ever-present natural predators.
So we're here with some muscle! We're giving those baby turtles a real chance at life, and you're going to help!
Your Puerto Vallarta sea turtle release adventure starts off with a briefing by our expert team of marine biologists. Afterward we’ll visit the turtle camp and nursery, followed by a walk on the beach. If we see any nesting mother sea turtles along the way, we'll alert our team to begin monitoring the activity!
Then, it's time to release some babies into the wild! This truly is one of the most extraordinary life experiences a person can have, and our turtle release tour brings it to you like no one else.
Sea turtles have existed on Earth for over 200 million years. Sadly, they are now one of our most endangered species of marine mammals. This Puerto Vallarta eco tour focuses on educating its participants, and protecting the survival of sea turtles as we move forward into the future.
Make some beautiful memories and save the planet too! Don't miss out on this unique experience, book your Puerto Vallarta sea turtles tour today!
