turtle nesting???
Culebra, Puerto Rico

My wife and I arrive in Culebra on Monday (Feb 22). Any tips on where to see turtles or turtles nesting? Are there any experts on the island who run nature walks to see these?

thanks!

Josh

Good afternoon,
The turtles have dug some nests as there are clearly marked off spots on a couple of beaches (Flamenco/Zoni last I noticed). However, you have to be very lucky & in the right place at the right time to catch them in the act.

We have, however had many, many guests see turtles while swimming. One of our couples saw some both yesterday & today while snorkeling.

Not turtle related, however, exciting: whales have been spotted in the area recently (most recently near Soldado) & we had guests that said that they heard them yesterday while in the water.
