Campamento Tortuguero Ayotlcalli

Campamento Tortuguero Ayotlcalli is a marine turtle rescue and conservation center located at Playa Blanca. It is run by extremely knowledgeable and motivated volunteers and it is supported by donations, memberships and proceeds from the sales of crafts as well as from the Casa de la Tortuga Vacation Rental. They maintain an incubation center where they also offer hatchling releases at dusk, educational workshops and where students and volunteers can help make handcrafts to be sold. These folks are really doing a lot of good through their efforts, and over a thousand nests were counted this year, and thousands of turtle hatchlings have been safely released. Be sure to "Adopt A Nest".
