The Majestic Green Turtle Nesting Tour

tles in the Caribbean during the months of July to October. During the night at high tide, the females come to lay their eggs. This is a unique experience that will provide priceless memories. Our Naturalist Guide will share learned secrets and expertise about this marine species and its history in Tortuguero, in a totally natural environment with profound respect for nature. In the past, during the turtle nesting season, the people used to crowd the beach looking for the turtles, so they were easily disturbed because of too many people around them. If there are too many people on the beach, the turtles return to the ocean without laying their eggs. Now, the Tortuguero National Park, the STC and the turistic industry, are working with a new system; instead of having all the visitors walking down the beach, professional spotters search for the nesting females, once they find one, they radio the position to the guides, and the guides take the visitors directly where she is nesting, using a trail behind the beach. You and your guide will be waiting for this call at a specific place sorted by TNP
