Amazing time. Do NOT skip out on this one!! - We had such a great time learning about the turtles and releasing the babies to the ocean. If you get the opportunity to upgrade to "private", do it - it is well worth it. You won't be disappointed!!

Go Baby Go - The information on the turtles very interesting and informative. You do hike a bit on the sand to get down to the beach for the turtle baby release. There is just something heartwarming about watching the little baby turtles go towards the ocean.

Bucket list adventure of a life time, now I can say I helped save some on a beautiful beach in Mexico with my husband! - My husband and I have had great experiences in Cabo with other animal watching trips and the baby turtle release is something I have always wanted to do. The staff was very friendly and informative. They explained lots about why conservation is needed even more here now than ever and went into detail as to how the conservation works in Mexico. They are very knowledgeable about all sea turtles and were able to joke and laugh along the way. Do remember your at a ranch with lots of other animals so the flies are horrible, it’s hot up at the ranch so dress accordingly, but it’s so worth the wait and the anticipation. I wasn’t sure what to expect but the long walk to the beach from the ranch was a little tough but once you could see the area where they have the nests and the way they take care of theses nest, even a tent that they sleep out on the beach with them, it’s just really amazing and so worth it. We released over a 120 Black Sea turtles and it was magical to watch them wake up and figure out where to go. It’s amazing they really know exactly what to do. I’m ready to go back already. The two guides are absolutely amazing and full of knowledge. There’s absolutely nothing bad about this trip, it’s one in a million and if your looking for a great adventure and excitement do this!!! I would love to buy a birth certificate if that’s possible. I’ll fill it out myself if possible. I just want to put it with my picture and never forget a second of this time. If I can do this please let me know? If we ever come back to Cabo this is my to do every time. Transportation was excellent as well! Thank you so much for such an informative learning experience of a lifetime. You guys made it absolutely amazing!

Dream of a lifetime. - It was breathtaking. The sunset was beautiful. My little turtle looked right at me as I spoke to him. Then we each received a whole bucket of turtles to release. What a life changing moment.
