Review & FAQ:
Playa de Tortuga on Cayo Largo del Sur is a natural environment that has been virtually untouched, as such, it provides a haven for hundreds of different birds, such as cormorants, pelicans, seagulls, and many others. The beach is also home to many sea turtles and lazy, big iguanas that love to relax on the rocks that overhang the beach. Hundreds of sea turtles come to Playa de Tortuga between the months of May and October to lay their eggs along the bank. Playa de Tortuga boasts warm turquoise waters, white sands, and a gentle underwater incline.
