Villa La Joya Sea Turtle Sanctuary Riviera Maya
Villa La Joya Sea Turtle Sanctuary Riviera Maya
The annual sea turtle nesting season in the Riviera Maya is a natural phenomenon that is truly magical and mind-blowing. Every year between May and October, thousands of sea turtles return to the very shores where they were born on the Yucatan Peninsula, to lay their precious eggs. Protecting these mature adult sea turtles, the nests and their hatchlings is a community effort with the government, our team of dedicated volunteers, and neighbors working together to ensure the circle of life continues.
The Villa la Joya Sea Turtle Sanctuary project is a labor of love for the endangered sea turtles that visit our little corner of the universe in the Mayan Riviera. Since the days we began building Villa la Joya in 2008, we have been awed by the miracle of the sea turtle nesting season.
