Grupo Tortuguero is the beach conservation group that we had the privilege of working with for the baby sea turtle release. They work on a 35 km stretch of beach in Pescadero collecting sea turtle eggs, protecting them from predators and hatching them safely to be released. They collect eggs from July to November taking tour groups during the night to help collect the eggs. Then, from September to January they take groups at sunset to release the turtles once they've hatched. In recent seasons, they have released as many an 45,000 baby sea turtles into the ocean, and have seen significant population increases in the area.
