Cozumel is fortunate to be a protected breeding area to two species
\nof turtles, the loggerhead (careta careta) and the green turtle (chelonian
\nmydas). During the months of May through September these turtles come ashore to
\nlay their eggs on Cozumel\u2019s eastern beaches. Sea turtles generally lay between
\n150-200 eggs each time and can nest up to 6 times in a breeding season. The
\neggs take around 60 days to incubate before the baby turtles head toward the
\nsea.<\/font><\/o:p><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
