Los Cabos Resort Joins Conservation Effort to Protect Baja Sea Turtles

By Pardhasaradhi Gonuguntla

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico- Reported by Elite Traveler, the private jet lifestyle magazine

Each June, the pristine shores of Cabo San Lucas transform into a nesting ground for four different species of endangered sea turtles- the Loggerhead, Black, Leatherback and Olive Ridley. These turtles venture back to the Sea of Cortes where they were born, laying their eggs in the soft sand. Unfortunately, many of the eggs and hatchlings are targeted by natural predators and threatened by humans and nearby hotel properties. The Esperanza, An Auberge Resort, recently joined the worldwide conservation effort to protect the endangered sea turtles, offering special programs designed to educate guests and protect the turtles.

The Esperanza invites guests to partake in the preservation of the endangered species, adopting a baby sea turtle and releasing it into the ocean at El Suspiro Beach at sunset. The three-hour adventure comes with a turtle adoption certificate, roundtrip ground transportation and drinks and appetizers on the beach prepared by Esperanza’s culinary team.
