Wonderful Tour! - This was such a fun day! I’ve always wanted to see the turtles being released so this crossed off an item on my bucket list. Our guide was great at explaining the rescues mission and information about the turtles. The only thing I would caution is that the sea gulls will get more than you expect so be prepared for the circle of life!

Awesome Turtle release - Marcos picked us up and we went to were they have the eggs put into nests where the that are protected. He explained to us how they have people watching for turtles nesting and then move the eggs to keep them safe from animals and people. We then went to a different beach and released the turtles. It was such an amazing experience! Would highly recommend!

A must do experience! - We had such a great time with this experience! They were very informative about the whole process and we left feeling like we helped. The waves were a little rough so we had to pick them up and release them in a new area. You can tell the guides really care about the turtles and take their jobs seriously. Overall this was a 10/10 experience for us! Highly recommend!

Once in a lifetime experience - Lino was a great guide. Got to have a one on one private experience. This meant a lot toe to be able to assist the turtles with increased survivability. I appreciated all of the information that Lino provided, along with his personal perspective. Thank you
