Day 4, Turtle Park

We visited a center that is working to protect the leatherback turtles. The Caravan tour operation donates a portion of our costs to support these research and conservation efforts.

The 2 researchers there were both American students working on their masters. Pics are of recently hatched turtles (these were not leatherbacks though), the researchers and the nesting pen where eggs are transferred after being laid, the beach where eggs are found, Pura Vida, and TJ running in the sandLes mer
