Amigos de Las Baulas is an outreach project, that educates the businesses, local community members and tourists living near or visiting the Las Baulas National Park, Costa Rica, about the importance of their beaches for the Pacific leatherback sea turtle (Baula), and encourages the people to help the turtles and their eggs on land. Pacific leatherback turtles are critically endangered and they need your help.
