Baja Turtles

You never know when there will be a call for help. These baby Green sea turtles ended up hatching in the middle of heavy beach traffic and were therefore at risk of not surviving on their way to the sea. The hotel manager of Playa Del Sol (Tomas) gave us a call and we immediately began the rescue.

The rescue also turned into an opportunity to teach and give people a first hand experience of helping the sea turtles. There were a number of hotel guests and other vacationers on the beach who were able to see the hatching and were introduced to some of the difficulties these sea turtles have for their survival.
