🌙 A Magical and Unforgettable Nighttime Experience

Step into one of the most moving natural events on Earth: the nesting of sea turtles on the protected beaches of Tortuguero National Park. Under the moonlight and the stars, guided by certified naturalists, you’ll witness the awe-inspiring moment when a majestic green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) emerges from the ocean to give life to the next generation — continuing a ritual as old as time.

In silent reverence, you’ll walk along the dark beach, listening to the soothing rhythm of the waves while waiting to observe her incredible journey: searching for the perfect spot, digging her nest, laying over 100 eggs, and then quietly returning to the sea.
