Description

Explore the nocturnal nature of Tamarindo and get the chance to observe sea turtles, their nesting process, eggs, and the hatching of their hatchlings in their natural habitat.
Enjoy a unique experience exploring the nocturnal nature of Costa Rica's Pacific coast, where you'll have the chance to observe sea turtles in their natural habitat and learn about one of the most fascinating processes in wildlife: nesting.

Our adventure begins with pickup of the participants in Tamarindo. From there, we'll take an approximately 40-minute drive to the nesting beaches, located near Las Baulas Marine National Park. Along the way, our guide will share interesting information about the sea turtles that visit this region, their importance to the ecosystem, and the conservation efforts that help protect them.

Upon arrival at our destination, we'll set off on a night walk along the beach, accompanied by an experienced guide who will help us discover the secrets of nature after sunset.

One of the most exciting moments will be the chance to see Pacific green turtles coming out of the ocean to lay their eggs in the sand. Depending on natural conditions, we may be able to observe different stages of the nesting process, from nest preparation and egg-laying to the moment when the turtle carefully covers her nest before returning to the sea.

There is also the possibility of seeing small turtle tracks, nests, and, with a bit of luck, the hatching of hatchlings that emerge from the sand and begin their incredible journey to the ocean.

Throughout the experience, you'll learn about the life cycle of sea turtles, their migrations, the challenges they face to survive, and the importance of conserving the beaches where they reproduce.

More than just a turtle-watching tour, this experience aims to connect visitors with nocturnal nature, discover the richness of our coastal ecosystems, and understand why these animals are so important to Costa Rica's biodiversity.

All observations are carried out responsibly, respecting the turtles' natural behavior and following the guide's instructions. As these are wild animals, sightings and nesting stages are not guaranteed.
