I am still in 2 minds about this whole set up, and know that the founder will react badly to any negative comments. I should first say that despite my reservations it was a nice experience to see the baby turtles being released, even though about 200 people turned up on the evening that I was there. Secondly, I must state that I am not a biologist but a keen amateur with a bit of knowledge.
My first problem is that any communication was done by volunteers who clearly had very little knowledge of the turtles or the project itself. I heard them answering even basic questions with nonsense answers, so would just advise visitors to be aware of who they are talking to.
My overriding concern is about the welfare of the baby turtles who appear to be kept in large dishes from the time they hatch out until they are released up to 24 hours later. Their instinct is to try to crawl to the sea, so by the time they were released at sunset, many of them looked completely exhausted from crawling up the side of a plastic dish for hours and hours on end. Many hadn't made it to the water by the time I left.
The other basic problem is that the turtles appear to be released at the same time and at the same spot every evening, which predators will quickly learn and turn up for the nightly feast. At least the release was under cover of darkness (and with a large crowd) so there was no bird predation.
I just hope that I am wrong but the whole thing just didn't seem quite right (I'm sure the founder will let me know in a response)

While not at all what I had expected, being there to watch a hatchling release and supporting this organization made it well worth the effort. I think I had anticipated more hatchlings and fewer people.
For our release, there were about 50 hatchlings and twice that many people, but the staff was careful to ensure the safety of the hatchlings and seeing them scamper across the sand made us all smile. We observers found ourselves cheering and worrying and generally celebrating at least this first step in the lives of these wonderful creatures.
A Todos Santos experience not to be missed. The release is free to attend and the organization invites donations. There are also volunteer opportunities. An attendee and her children had volunteered to monitor the hatches during the day. It was an amazing experience for the children and they spoke very highly of the quality of the quality of care given to the eggs and hatchlings.

I visited in mid-June, so I missed the turtles, but I took one of their other tours, a kayak trip in the Pacific Ocean with option to snorkel. It was amazing and my guide, Steve, a pro-surfer had so many great stories to tell about the area. I felt very safe. And got to see much wildlife.

Came here to visit the turtle hatchlings, which happens between but didn't bother checking the schedule (find it on facebook "Tortugueros Las Playitas"). Still had a great time exploring the long beach and watching the sunset.
The drive in is a a narrow dirt road, but we managed fine in our Volkswagon Jetta. For parking, be mindful that there's a set of septic trucks that go in and out of the gated area by the end of the road. Do not park between the giant No Parking signs since that prevents them from exiting/entering. Also do yourself a favor and arrive an hour at least before sunset to not deal with the mess of cars trying to get in and out. Even better, park your car a few meters further from the beach (closer to the road) to avoid getting jammed in.

This was a wonderful experience! The only reason I didn't give it 4 stars is we were told to be there at 6pm but the release didn't happen until after 7pm. Just a lot of standing around not knowing what was happening - until it happened! It was incredibly cool, though!!

Que dire, personne sur la plage, les baleines grises par dizaines qui passent pour certaines à moins de 10 m, des couchers de soleil merveilleux.

If you love nature, animals, conservation etc this is a must do experience! It is very educational, (and a little sad) to learn about the endangered turtles, their struggles, populations, breeds etc. it was an absolutely breathtaking view of the sunset, but even more breathtaking was watching the little baby turtles head towards the vast ocean to start their lives! It’s very emotional if you are an animal lover, but the experience is truly magical! A definite highlight of our trip, and I highly recommend it!
Also the volunteers are very knowledgeable and kind! A huge shout out to them all and big THANK YOU for all they do!

We Did the biologist for a day with my fam. 2 adults 3 kids. 5-7 shift in December on Christmas Day . It was perfect. We cleaned nests, counted eggs, helped with the release. The best experience ever! Communication with organization beforehand is a little challenging , but it all works out in the end. Just show up! Jimmy and Angie are great and so helpful. Donate to this amazing cause!!!

Easy to get there if you follow Apple maps directions; no way to miss it. Minimal explanations provided. Ad-hoc type of activity. Only the designated volunteers release the turtles to the ocean; tourists only witness the process. Overall, a good experience, particularly accounting for the beautiful sunsets in BC...

I have not seen any tours so I would recommend renting a car. There are a few parking spots at the beach available.
