Overview

This is real sea turtle conservation, not a staged show. Release timing follows actual nesting activity, guided live by a marine biologist from Mazatlan's conservation program (OAP) — a genuinely wild moment, not a performance.

Hatching season runs September–December only. Spots are limited to protect the hatchlings, so book ahead to guarantee your date.

Watch a hatchling's first journey to the Pacific up close. Guests observe only, never handle — making this a real conservation encounter, not a photo-op.

The unforgettable part: your Sea Turtle Sponsor Certificate lets you symbolically name the hatchling released. Thanks to natal homing, turtles return 10–15 years later, as adults, to the exact beach they entered — the one you name today may return here full-grown. Kids get it free; adults can add an optional donation.

Then relax with a beachfront Day Pass in Cerritos — pool, beach, and (with the upgrade) a meal and drinks. Purpose and relaxation, one seasonal excursion.

What's Included

  • Bottled water Stay refreshed onboard — every vehicle is stocked with an ice-filled cooler, bottled water, and soft drinks throughout your ride to and from Cerritos.
  • Public transportation
  • Enjoy a beachfront Day Pass in Cerritos with full access to the pool and beach.
  • Meals Lunch is not included, but can be purchased on-site at the beach club, or you can select the Food & Drinks upgrade to have a meal and beverages included in advance.
