Turtle watching in Tortuguero with a French-speaking naturalist live guide

Highlights

• See endangered sea turtles in their natural habitat at Tortuguero
• Enjoy explanations in French from a certified local naturalist live guide
• Learn about the nesting, behavior, and conservation of turtles

Description

Meet the sea turtles of Tortuguero on a 2-hour small-group nighttime experience, accompanied in French by a local French-speaking naturalist live guide. As dusk falls, we will head to the beach in search of these ancient animals that return each year to the coast of Tortuguero to breed. Depending on the conditions and the activity of the turtles, you will be able to observe different stages of nesting, from their arrival on the beach to laying their eggs and their return to the sea. Your live guide will help you understand what you are seeing: the behavior, reproduction, adaptations, and role of turtles in the marine ecosystem. The goal is to take the time to observe and discover this incredible natural phenomenon without disturbing the animals. Tortuguero is particularly known for its populations of green turtles and is an essential place for their conservation. An experience that favors small groups, careful observation, and a true encounter with wildlife, far from a simple tourist excursion.
