Eco Tour Turtle Release a tour you feel good about...

When you participate in the Turtle Release Eco Tour, you are not only helping the sea turtle, you are able to learn about the species all while enjoying yourself. The Sea Turtle is making a comeback in the waters of Acapulco and you have the opportunity to help. You will choose a baby sea turtle that has been raised by the Turtle Conservation Program.

You can adopt the turtle and then, through your efforts, release the baby into its natural habitat in the sea. As the baby takes its first swim in the natural waters of the Pacific, you will be there to witness this momentous occasion.

This is truly a tour you can feel good about taking! The Turtle releasing Camp is located in Barra Vieja, along the main coastal highway, Carretera Acapulco Pinotepa, kilometer 32. The turtle camp staff finds endangered sea turtle nests and bring the eggs to the camp, to incubate in a protected area safe from poachers and predators. When the baby turtles hatch, they make sure the hatchlings at least make it into the water, by taking them down to the ocean and releasing them in large groups so some have a chance of survival.
