Baby Sea Turtle Releasing Sightseeing Tour with Luis de la Maza

We will travel through town to get to the rural community of Juluchuca which famous for the production of coconut macarons and has the longest and most secluded beach which makes it the best place for the mama turtles to come and lay the eggs away from the noise of the tourist towns.

In Juluchuca beach we will explain you the life cycle of the sea turtles and tell you the characteristics of the 3 different kinds of see turtles that come and lay the eggs in this part of Mexico, we will also mention the different predators that kill them before they make it to the ocean and also once they are in the ocean. After a 20 minutes explanation we will select a nest that was found the day before, we carefully will remove a little bit of the sand and show you one of the eggs, then we will cover the nest. After that we will select the nest that is hatching and you will witness how the turtles come up to the surface. All of the turtles will be put in a small container. The turtles will remain for about 10 to 20 minutes in the container, untiel they are active and ready to go. After we will take them to the wet sand about 25 feet away from the ocean and as soon as they are put in the wet sand they will run to the ocean. We will wait until they all make it to the ocean.
