Playa Migrino
From July to September in Cabo, Olive Ridley and Black Turtles come to shore to lay their eggs deep in the sand before returning back to sea. The baby turtles hatch about 45 days later, but during this time we protect the nest and take care of the eggs. Our job is to raise the percentage of survival as much as possible. The tour is guided by a marine biologist which brings a fun, educational learning experience where you take part in the release of these baby turtles back into nature.

Turtle Love
This was one the one of the most amazing tours I have been on. The drive there was fairly long but very well worth it. You get informational session and turtles before the release which is good to know. Then you go and see where they have the nests. Then the release. It’s something that I truly believe everyone should experience. The fact that the money you spend to do this experience goes back to helping save the turtles is also what makes it a top notch experience. The passion the men have for these turtle and trying to make sure they are safe and can thrive is amazing, and very touching. I would do this again.

Baby turtle release!
It starts with a half hour “masterclass” on sea turtles. It was interesting to learn about them. Then we walked down toward the beach and checked out all the nests they had set up. These guys do so much for turtle conservation - their work is admirable and impressive. After checking that out we walked down to the beach. Sometimes you have to be patient and fight off the seagulls, which they endearingly refer to as “sea eagles.” We watched the sunset and let the turtles go shortly after. It was so fun! There were so many babies and it was such a good time to watch them crawl to the ocean and cheer them all on. Abel was our guide and he was so kind and knowledgeable. Pato was also very kind and professional. Highly recommend!

Great learning experience! Got to see a turtle shell. Also got to pet donkies and it was an amazing sunset that night.

It was a little bit of a trip to get there and because of the facilities limited budget and resources, you are not in an air conditioned environment for the educational portion. That is not a complaint, just a heads up to be fed and hydrated when you go. That said, the marine biologist (Patricio) and his partner (Abel) were great! A wonderful experience for adults and children. You could see how passionate and invested those two are in helping the turtles. It is a lot of work and dedication and I have a new respect for their chosen careers and efforts . And what a beautiful experience it was to introduce the baby sea turtles to their journey out to the ocean. I highly recommend. We did have to wait an exrta 1/2 hr to leave because of a broken down van but those things happen and are beyond anyone’s control.

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Los Cabos Sunset Turtle Release Conservation Experience: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Los Cabos.
How much does Los Cabos Sunset Turtle Release Conservation Experience cost?
+
Prices start at $85 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Los Cabos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Los Cabos Sunset Turtle Release Conservation Experience take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Los Cabos is not rushed.
Is Los Cabos Sunset Turtle Release Conservation Experience worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 225 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Los Cabos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Los Cabos Sunset Turtle Release Conservation Experience?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Los Cabos Sunset Turtle Release Conservation Experience suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Los Cabos Sunset Turtle Release Conservation Experience?
+
Around 79 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Los Cabos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Los Cabos and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Los Cabos Sunset Turtle Release Conservation Experience start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Los Cabos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Los Cabos?
+
On Outty we rank every Los Cabos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ziplining and UTV Desert Adventure from Los Cabos, Cabo 4x4 ATV Tour with Tequila Tasting and Mexican Buffet Lunch, Cabo Beach Camel Ride, Mexican Buffet and Tequila Tasting. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Los Cabos?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Los Cabos?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
