Program details

This exclusive green-tour will take you to El Verde, Camacho, marin turtle station just outside of Mazatlán where researchers have been protecting, nesting sea turtles for over 23 years. Last year alone, 120,000 Olive Ridley baby turtles were released. Biologists monitor and collect data on the sea turtle nesting and stranding activity. The nesting activity, in which the eggs are collected and incubated by the hatchery staff, occurs from july trough november each year, allowing us to share this extraordinary experience with you.
