Bahia Principe hits new turtle hatching heights

The Eco-Bahia Foundation, a part of Grupo Piñero (which operates Bahia Principe Hotels & Resorts), supported over 2,000 green and loggerhead turtle nests along Mexico’s Caribbean coast in 2023.

This represented over 191,000 hatchlings along the coast of the nation where the Eco-Bahia Foundation was first founded in 1999.

Since then, along with its extensive Sea Turtle Protection programme, Eco-Bahia has donated more than 1,200 specimens of native plants as part of reforestation campaigns in Mexico.

More than 1,000 animal specimens have been cared for as part of these protection and conservation efforts.

15 cleaning sessions have seen almost 350kg of waste collected from the coast, contributing to research to study waste migration.

2023 also saw more than 5,300 guests educated on the importance of ecosystem preservation and protection through guided tours, camps and scientific partnerships across its resorts.

Stays at Bahia Principe properties in Mexico start from £1,499 per week at Bahia Principe Grand Coba and £1,699 per week at Bahia Principe Luxury Akumal. Prices are based on two sharing.
