Now's the time for all eco-conscious, Hybrid-driving Los Angeles adventurers to put their money where your mouth is and give back. "The key to budget travel is to approach ahead. When it comes along to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved holidays and/or going to see new places we have never been before, the actuality of cost and budgeting is always in the back of our heads. Planning and spending our travel budget correctly is a concern for most families. Lowering expending and expenses, while still savoring your vacation to its fullest, is the key to guaranteed achievement and fiscal responsibility. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thought regarding saving money while touring is simple: Even if your personal finances is extremely tight, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also keeping in mind that while traveling, no matter whether on a price range or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a huge vacation or travel expenses!..". Actually, we're talking an amazing kayak adventure and a chance to get up close and personal and help salvage the turtles of Magdalena Bay. And it's easy to reach with a a two hour flight on Alaska Airlines (http://www.alaskaair.com) from Los Angeles to Loreto.
Here's the deal: Idaho-based Sea Kayak Adventures, Inc. (http://www.seakayakadventures.com) is offering an all-inclusive eight-day trip package where participants can spend three days hands-on helping researchers monitor and tag endangered sea turtles at their nesting beach in Magdalena Bay, then three days paddling a sea kayak alongside dolphins and sea lions in the clear waters of Loreto Bay in the Sea of Cortez.
The itinerary offers opportunities for novices to paddle and explore uninhabited desert islands by stable sea kayak, snorkel with colorful fish along isolated coves in clear turquoise waters and learn all about sea turtles. All activities are led by naturalist guides.
The company is teaming up with RED Sustainable Tourism with this unique conservation tour package along the Baja California peninsula, Mexico this October. For ecology minded travelers, the trip has the positive impact of directly supporting community-based conservation of endangered green sea turtles.
Recognized around the world as a model for community-based sea turtle conservation, the Grupo Tortuguero's Eastern Pacific Green Sea Turtle Monitoring Program has helped to turn the tide for this once critically endangered species. Local communities seek alternatives to fishing as their sole source of income, and strive to train local community members in ecotourism and other low-impact cottage industries.
Grab a pair of waders and climb aboard the panga (skiff) to help monitor green turtle populations with local fishermen company owner Terry Prichard states. You will have a unique opportunity to help collect data and release turtles - maybe you'll even get to name one! In your down time, you can tour the dunes by foot and mangrove canals by panga to view migratory and local bird species, or visit with local fishermen to learn traditional fishing techniques.
Details:
Tour runs March 25-April 1, 2012 and costs $1,650 for adults and $1,485 for children ages 12-17. Upon arrival in Loreto you are met at the airport and driven to a local hotel.
