Have you ever witnessed the incredible journey of baby sea turtles as they make their way to the ocean for the very first time? Puerto Vallarta is the perfect place to experience this breathtaking event, and the best part? You can play a role in it!
From July to December, Puerto Vallarta’s pristine beaches transform into hatching grounds for various species of sea turtles, including the Olive Ridley, Green, and Hawksbill turtles. The peak season runs from August to November, making it the best time to visit if you want to catch this awe-inspiring spectacle.
Turtle camps and various hotels in Puerto Vallarta have their own conservation programs and it is possible to accompany the hatchlings from their nest to the shore of the beach where they begin their adventure to the sea.
