The tour start time is in the evening and is tide-dependent, the duration of the tour is 6 hours and the departure point is St Lucia Hotel.In all likelihood, it is once in a lifetime, so do not even consider missing it. As the evening begins to fall, we set out on a quiet night drive on the beach to seek out, but never disturb, the leatherback and loggerhead turtles returning to their birthplace to lay their eggs; later in the season, we are able to see the hatchlings making their desperate and dangerous dash for the ocean. Our evening expedition includes a night drive through the Eastern Shores Game Reserve, onto the beach, and, if at all possible, a stealthy walk on the sand. We have packed our own refreshments and snacks, so it promises to be as convivial an evening as it is likely to be thrilling.
