The Tern Sanctuary

The Tern Sanctuary

Terns are migratory seabirds that are distributed in the oceans around the world and spend most of their lives flying over the sea. From the month of March until approximately September we can observe them in this sanctuary where they arrive for courtship, reproduction, nesting and birth.

It is difficult to find these birds in accessible places and this site is a privileged place to observe them and carry out conservation actions as MÍA Hotels does from its MÍA Sustentable Foundation.

Since 2021, we have given talks to collaborators, guests, as well as children and young people from Isla Mujeres schools to share with them the importance of these birds.

With the support of biologists, we carried out weekly monitoring of the colony, creating an internal management plan and training all hotel employees.

Cleanings

Since 2021, we have organized with various partners, more than 40 lagoon, coastal and mangrove cleanup activities in Bacalar and Isla Mujeres, collecting more than 6,300 kg of waste, with the participation of 880 volunteers.
