If you love animals and the environment, then our Ixtapa Zihuatanejo Sea Turtle Release is perfect for you! You'll learn all about the conservation of these animals and help them find their way into the water.

Ixtapa Zihuatanejo Sea Turtle Release

At the scheduled time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Ixtapa Zihuatanejo and head to the sea turtle sanctuary in the north of the city.

Upon arrival, we'll learn about the sea turtles' life cycle, the threats contributing to their endangered status, and the importance of conservation to protect marine animals from extinction.

Next, we'll discover how eggs are collected and protected and how hatchlings are cared for to thrive in the wild. Sea turtles have been on Earth for over 100 million years.

We will take several baby sea turtles from their nest and allow them to rest in containers until they become active. Afterwards, we will take them to the shore for their release and watch them complete their journey to the water.

Once we have released the sea turtles, we will return to the center of Zihuatanejo and drop you back at your hotel 4 hours after departure.
