Overview of the tour in Zihuatanejo

The work of protection and conservation of different types of sea turtles, sometimes requires for its success discretion and secrecy on the part of its operators, cooperators and visitors, to keep away human predators or nest plunderers. This work is often a real feat in its infancy, because in addition to discretion and secrecy, which make awareness and consciousness work more complex. In addition, the government does not assign security elements to monitor and protect the turtles and their nests, this has generated that some locals prefer not to reveal the location of the nesting sites, assuming the role of guardians by their own means. In this tour we will take you to a hidden camp where the turtle nests have been moved to a specific area under guard to keep them safe from predators. First, you will have to extract the eggs from the nest and, in some cases, activate the turtles before releasing them into the sea.
