Sea turtles

Jaibazul has approximately 230 meters of beach on the Caribbean Sea. Four species of sea turtle come to spawn on this beach, which is approximately 13 km long, year after year: green turtle (Chelonia midas), Hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata), loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) and Leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriácea).

In 2010, the ACAETUR Environmental Conservation and Ecotourism Association was created in the area with the aim of protecting sea turtles, since they are cataloged within the conservation red list (IUCN- The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, 2018 ).
