Camp Cuevas
Camp Cuevas
Cuevas Family of El Pardito in the Sea of Cortez
Camp Cuevas is TOSEA’s new program with the famous Cuevas Family of El Pardito in the Sea of Cortez. The Cuevas brothers Juan and Felipe are 4th generation shark hunters who have turned their unique marine life knowledge and tracking skills into a wildlife protection program. Juan and Felipe will accompany the group on this 4 day/3-night program and share their extraordinary, bred-in-the-bone knowledge of the islands, the Sea of Cortez and its many diverse inhabitants. We will go with them to find hammerheads, swim with sea lions, night snorkel in bioluminescence and meet the large population of Eastern Pacific Hawksbill Turtles in the mangroves near their home that first inspired their journey into conservation. Their parents and extended family on El Pardito will host us for two meals and a tortilla making class.
Our camp is on a secluded beach on the breathtakingly beautiful Isla San Jose where we enjoy chef-prepared meals, daily happy hour, large dome tents with real beds, and plenty of kayaking and paddle boarding. A dreamy retreat into the luxury of nature – with some of its most passionate protectors.
