Capacha Coastal Conservation Center advances sustainable design principles and practices along the southern coast of Jalisco, Mexico—the “Costalegre”.  The Center is a joint venture among environmental nonprofits, regional universities, and the private sector, promoting interdisciplinary solutions for improved productivity, health, and resilience of coastal ecosystems and local economies.  We are dedicated to science-based environmental planning and direct action while providing community services that support viable eco-tourism and sustainable hospitality operations.  

Our commitment to sustainable design and a permaculture ethos aligns with our direct service initiatives that support the re-introduction of the locally-extinct Military Macaw and our sea turtle recovery project.  Capacha works with local, state and federal environmental agencies and organizations to promote conservation at the landscape scale.  Be part of the solution and join us at our main station where environmental advocacy, conservation research, direct service, and sustainable ecotourism meet by the ocean’s edge.
