What To Expect
You will carry out a 3-hour night patrol through a natural beach area with trained biologists in search of sea turtle nests to collect the eggs and transfer and incubate them in the sea turtle conservation camp, where they will be sheltered until the baby turtles are born and then release them into the ocean.
You will learn in depth and detail from experts the work and conservation efforts that are carried out to preserve the species of turtles that visit and lay eggs in Puerto Vallarta
You'll learn:
