Praia do Forte is an important center for the preservation of sea turtles, whose eggs are harvested at night on the beach, spawning time. The hatchlings are released at sea when they are large enough to defend themselves.
On our beach, there are several protected enclosure, in fact nesting places. This afternoon, the association came Tamar release fifty tortillettes, as big as my thumb. Officials came to explain everything that, in Portuguese of course, so I can not explain all this in detail.
He had to wait for the tide is high to unleash these small turtles, a very emotional moment when they ran on the sand and the first wave carried them off, everyone cheered and wished them good luck.

Our day was calm beach, swimming, eating, walking, napping in the hammock (I do not say you had was ven a hammock on our patio!), Then rebaignade, releasing turtles, shower and dinner. If we have courage, we will go to the show's musical village, with our 4 hour time difference, the evenings are tough. Hiking tomorrow in primary forest in pursuit of the lazy (true), with a nature guide and discovery.
