We all know it‘s turtle time in Cabo, and all over Baja California
Sur. Where from August to December sea turtles crawl ashore in the dead of
night, lay their eggs and scuttle off back to sea.
And we try our best to keep you up to date with all the
turtle news…
So this weekend saw the release of 400 Olive Ridley Turtles
on Santa Maria Beach in Cabo. The release was part of a “Turtle for all week”.
Where a group of 75 people - mainly children and youths with disabilities
gathered on the beach to release the tiny creature safely into the sea.
The idea behind the event - a joint effort between several
agencies - was to make the kids feel involved, give them the chance to do something
new, have some fun, and learn something in the process.
But of course it is not just kids who get to have all the
fun. Daily “turtle releases” are happening in different beaches all across the municipality
at the moment.
So if you are in town, give it a go – it is definitely something you wont regret, or ever forget.
