Parks & Nature
Playa Pelada
Our favorite beach, pristine, rugged, no crowded at all
Where the Olive Ridley turtles come to lay their eggs. A seasonal event, not on a schedule. If you are lucky, you will be able to experience something unique!
Usually at the new moon and during the coolest months of the year (June to November)
