This is something really special that happens every year at Las Baulas National Park just to the North of Tamarindo.
Between October and March, the Leatherback Turtles come to nest and lay their eggs off the coast. There are turtle tours available to check it out but please remember the fragility of the turtles and the eggs. While the tourist industry has brought money and awareness, it has also been detrimental to the endangered species.
If you do decide to check it out.... just be smart about it. Don't use a flash on your camera, don't get too close and of course listen to your guide!
