How do we protect the turtles?

  1. Raising Awareness with our Turtle Education Program so that local communities will protect turtles and their nests. In exchange for turtle friendly behavior we offer the local communities financial incentives and labor.
  2. Protect the Beaches and create wildlife refugees by taking strategic ownership positions at the beaches, introduce legal penalties against turtle haunters and patrol the beaches during the breeding seasons with our well trained Turtle Police.
  3. Assist and Educate Tourism and Residential Developers around the beaches of Panama to develop their projects according to our sustainable and ecological development standards in order not to disturb the turtles during the breeding season. Ecologically managed projects can apply for our Turtle Save Certificate.
