Frequently Asked Questions

When is the absolute best time to visit Tortuguero Natual B&B for turtle nesting?

We recommend visiting between July and October to witness the green sea turtles nesting, with August and September often being peak months. While the B&B offers a tranquil base, remember that turtle sightings are a natural phenomenon and never guaranteed, but the atmosphere during nesting season is truly special.

How do we actually get to Tortuguero Natual B&B, given Tortuguero's unique access?

Accessing Tortuguero Natual B&B is part of the adventure; we always travel by boat from La Pavona or Moín, which is a scenic journey through the canals. The B&B can often help arrange transfers from La Pavona, making the logistics surprisingly smooth for such a remote-feeling destination.

What kind of experience should we expect at Tortuguero Natual B&B – is it rustic or more comfortable?

We find Tortuguero Natual B&B strikes a lovely balance; it's not a luxury resort, but it offers comfortable, clean rooms with a genuine local charm. Expect a peaceful, immersive stay where the sounds of nature are your soundtrack, and the hospitality feels warm and authentic.

Besides the famous turtles, what other wildlife can we hope to see around Tortuguero Natual B&B?

Oh, the wildlife here is abundant! We've spotted howler monkeys, sloths, caimans, and a dazzling array of birds right from the B&B's vicinity. We highly recommend taking a guided canoe tour through the canals to truly appreciate the incredible biodiversity of the area.

Is it safe to explore the immediate area around Tortuguero Natual B&B on our own?

We generally feel very safe walking around the village and immediate paths near the B&B during the day. However, for exploring the deeper jungle or canals, we strongly advise hiring a local guide; their knowledge of the terrain and wildlife is invaluable, and it ensures your safety while maximizing your sightings.
