I spend a lot of time at the beach and I have a lot of respect for what they do at the Tortugario. They are responsible for a huge stretch of coastline and making sure that as many turtle eggs as possible actually hatch and are able to scurry out to the ocean. They have a number of pools where they keep two different species of sear turtles, iguanas, and crocodiles. The highlight of the adventure is taking a boat tour around the estuary. South of Manzanillo there are a series of estuaries that get relatively less salty the farther you go. They produce that awesome rock salt in the ones closer to Manzanillo. The estuary behind the Tortugario has water that is much more hospitable to wildlife. There are lots crocodiles, tons of birds, snakes, iguanas and all sorts of wildlife that backs up all the way to the freeway. The tour costs a little bit more, but is well worth the price of admission. Every time I am in Cuyutlan I am trying to make time to go check out the estuary tour again. Take your camera and enjoy the scenery. read more
