2000 turtles lay their eggs in one day on a Nicaraguan beach in latest Arribada.
The Olive Ridley Turtle Arribada is one of the most spectacular natural phenomena to happen in Central America.
Just south of San Juan Del Sur in Nicaragua, thousands of turtles arrive on the same beach to lay their eggs each year.
These usually solitary reptiles gather in their thousands on Playa La Flor to dig their nests in the sand. It is one of the few remaining locations in the world that this takes place.
Within just a few days, the beach is empty again.
We were lucky enough to spend two days with these majestic creatures and have made a documentary about the Olive Ridley turtle nesting season.
Watch to learn more about the stages of the Olive Ridley nesting season as well as conservation efforts on the Pacific.
