Sea Turtle Release in Ixtapa Zihuatanejo

At the designated time, transportation will be arranged from your hotel in Ixtapa Zihuatanejo to the turtle sanctuary located in the northern part of the city.

Upon arrival, you'll have the opportunity to learn firsthand about the life cycle of sea turtles. Discussions will cover the various dangers that have led to their endangered status and emphasize conservation's role in safeguarding these and other marine species.

Subsequently, you'll witness the process of egg collection and protection, along with insights into the care provided to hatchlings to ensure their healthy development before entering the wild. These extraordinary animals have inhabited our planet for over 100 million years!

Following this informative session, we will gently take a few baby sea turtles from their nests and place them in containers for a brief rest. Once they are lively enough, we will transport them to the shore for their release, allowing you to observe as they undertake their journey to the open water.

After bidding farewell to the sea turtles, we will head back to the center of Zihuatanejo, ensuring your return to the hotel approximately four hours after the start of the activity.
