Turtle Monitoring & Protection Program
Club Med Ixtapa
In Partnership with the Secretary of Environment and Natural Resources Club Med Ixtapa is protecting the Olive Ridley Turtle, a threatened species. Each year, nesting females return to this beach to lay between 80 and 100 eggs each. Our teams have been trained and licensed to collect these eggs and place them in a protected structure to hatch.
In 2022 Club Med Ixtapa reached 13,108 baby turtles release, reaching a 83% productivity of the turtle camp (minimum required in Mexico is 70%).
