At 5:30 PM you will meet our naturalist expert turtle guide at a designated pickup location or hotel. Our transportation will take you to the turtle beach about 40 minutes north of Tamarindo.

During this experience, the guide will be sharing much information about the turtles, from their reproduction, behavior, and diets to nesting processes.

3 different species of turtles can be seen, but we don’t know which species will be out during our experience. Leatherbacks, the world’s largest turtle, Green sea turtles, and Olive Ridley sea turtles are the 3 species that are in the area.

During the tour we will experience the turtle activity following all guidelines given by the guide, you will be able to take pictures without flash. Be close to the turtles but do not touch them.

The turtle nesting depends on conditions on the beach, like clear sandbars and good temperatures. Seeing the turtles lay eggs is not guaranteed as it depends on the conditions of the beach.
