Sea Turtle Season in Puerto Vallarta
Prepare for the annual seashore parade of your favourite shelled companions when you come to Puerto Vallarta for sea turtle season. Every year, from August to December, thousands of animal enthusiasts and curious travelers come to the shores of Puerto Vallarta to bear witness to and participate in the San Pancho turtle release.
During this breathtaking event, you get to see nature at work as countless turtles make the trek from nest to sea to start their lives after hatching. Depending on how involved you want to get, you can even offer protection to the little ones you see making their great escape on San Pancho Beach.
Responsible Turtle Tourism
Let’s show a little love to Mother Nature while enjoying her beautiful beaches
Sustainability is one of the pillars of Vallarta Adventures, so we are a great fit for anyone who wants to learn more about the unique environmental components of Mexico and the specific regions you choose to explore. During our Sayulita and San Pancho Tour, our knowledgeable guide will be able to tell you all about the habitats and habits of the sea turtles you can spot while visiting San Pancho Beach.
Some visitors choose to take a more active role in supporting the sustainability of our beautiful turtle population by protecting the baby turtles as they move toward the water. While we always welcome this type of tender, loving care from our Vallarta Adventures participants, we caution each and every guest to ensure they are acting in accordance with the best interests of the turtles. So, listen to our guides and make unforgettable memories by contributing to the baby turtle release in San Pancho.
