Activity itinerary

The programme begins with an educational lesson about sea turtles and their nesting behaviour and concludes with a walk to Juno Beach to view hatchlings being released by LMC staff. Will we see a nest hatch? We cannot predict when nests will hatch. We will be releasing hatchlings that have recently hatched and been excavated by our research staff. Are we guaranteed to see hatchlings being released? The number of nests being excavated, species of the nests and number of hatchlings found in the nest varies by day, so we cannot guarantee hatchlings every single night. Will we get to touch a sea turtle? No, only staff on our permit are allowed to touch the sea turtle hatchlings. Can I take pictures? We do not allow the use of flash photography or any photography (cell phones or digital cameras) that utilises a lighted LCD screen. What to Wear Dark clothing is preferred to minimise the impact on nesting sea turtles. Insect repellent and comfortable walking shoes are highly recommended. If there is lightning at the conclusion of the programme, we will not go to the beach.
