Your expert guide will share with you the knowledge of the local indigenous community, which has been cultivating cacao for many generations. The cacao plants are grown in the shade, and their pods display a wide variety of colors. You will have the opportunity to taste the beans both before processing—at which stage they are quite sweet—and after they have been roasted. The Bocas del Toro chocolate tour will walk you through the various stages of cacao processing, including harvesting, fermentation, drying, roasting, grinding, and final preparation. Cacao cultivation presents numerous challenges, including the threat of a lethal fungus capable of decimating the trees. As this is an organic plantation, no chemical pesticides are used.

Being able to observe the leatherback turtles, the largest of all turtles is a truly memorable experience. It is as large as a human being, reaching a length of 5.6 feet (approx. 1.7 meters). This turtle is the heaviest non-crocodilian reptile in existence, reaching a weight of 500 kilograms (1,100 pounds)! Adult specimens measure between 4.5 and over 6 feet (1.4 to 1.8 meters) in length. Your guide will measure every turtle that comes ashore and maybe you can break that record! The nocturnal turtle tour allows you to observe the turtles as they lay their eggs. Since this is a scientific observation activity, protocols must be followed to ensure the well-being of the turtles, as they are an endangered species. Your guide will provide further information about these fascinating creatures as you walk along one of the most beautiful beaches in Bocas del Toro. The Giant Sea Turtle Conservation Tour is available from April through mid-September.
