What To Expect

Experience one of Los Cabos' most meaningful wildlife encounters by participating in a baby sea turtle release along the beautiful Pacific coast.

Your adventure begins with a scenic drive to an authorized nesting beach (about 30 minutes driving), where a Marine Biologist will introduce you to the fascinating life cycle of sea turtles, their incredible migrations, and the conservation efforts dedicated to protecting these endangered animals.

During nesting season, thousands of sea turtles return to the beaches of Baja California Sur to lay their eggs. Once the hatchlings emerge, you'll have the unforgettable opportunity to participate in their release under the supervision of trained conservation staff, giving these tiny turtles the best possible start on their journey to the ocean.

As the sun sets over the Pacific, you'll enjoy a truly memorable experience while learning how responsible tourism contributes to the protection of marine wildlife.

This family-friendly activity requires very little physical effort and is suitable for participants of all ages.
