Il programma nel dettaglio

Explore amazing ecosystems, see endangered species in their natural habitat and learn how local people are working to protect the environment in this morning tour, visiting La Ventanilla, Tonameca Lagoon and Mazunte, home of the National Turtle Centre.



The tour starts at La Ventanilla, a small village situated on the coast of Oaxaca. Here we'll board a panga for a tour around Tonameca Lagoon, an extensive mangrove where a wide variety of species can be found including woodpeckers, herons, iguanas, and a community of crocodiles. You'll get to see crocs of all ages including babies and learn about a crocodile clinic where they're protected from hunters. Your professional guide will tell you all about this incredible ecosystem, and how local people are working for the conservation of the different species.



Later we’ll drive to Mazunte a small village popular for its pristine beaches and as yet untouched by tourism. Here we'll visit a cosmetic factory producing creams, oils, shampoo and soaps from 100% natural raw materials. You will have the opportunity to do some shopping here before we continue to the National Turtle Centre, an organisation dedicated to protecting this species and its habitat.



This morning tour takes 5 ½ hours, leaving at 09:00 and returning at 14:30 and includes hotel pick up and drop off, all transfers as well as the services of a bilingual guide. We suggest you wear comfortable shoes and that you bring sunscreen, insect repellent, sunglasses, and some extra cash in case you want to purchase souvenirs.
