We have very good news for all nature lovers, this past weekend the Ostional Association of Local Guides (AGLO) reported that today one more massive turtle arrival is starting.
“Today began a second arrival for the month of October, this is one of the big arrivals of the year and could last at least 5 to 6 more days.” If you are one of the people who are interested in going to observe this spectacle of nature, we inform you that as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the guidelines for turtle watching and hiring guides changed in Ostional.
Some of the changes that are being applied from now on are the following:
– Only tourists who have a prior reservation will be served. If a large influx of tourists is received without reservation, the Refuge will be closed, so it is recommended to make your reservation.
– The beach opening hours will be established by the Ministry of Health.
– We ask that you please bring your mask.
– Tourists will wait in their respective vehicles for their turn to enter the beach, this in order to avoid crowds at the service station.
– As far as possible, the use of cash is being avoided, so those who have access are requested to cancel the guided service through SINPE Móvil or electronic transfer.
