SEE Turtles Program in Brief

We have developed a conservation effort called SEE Turtles that looks to steer travelers to turtle hotspots where their dollars can bolster protection efforts and local economies. We call it “conservation tourism.” Writer Andy Meyers was a guest on a pilot run in Baja California, Mexico, and filed this report for OC Magazine. For more on SEE Turtles and partner locations in Mexico, Trinidad & Tobago, Costa Rica and beyond visit the main SEE Turtles Web site. Ocean Conservancy remains a vital SEE partner and supporter, while the program is now run internationally by Ocean Revolution.
