With more loggerhead nests per mile than anywhere else in the U.S., nearly 2 million hatchlings make their journey to the sea right here each year. 💚 As Florida’s Sea Turtle Capital, we invite you to Sea to Preserve- because experiencing paradise also means protecting it.

Our Research Department has recorded 286 leatherback nests, 12,987 loggerhead nests, and 3,253 green nests – bringing us to a total of 16,526 nests to-date this season. This puts us at the third-highest nesting season out of the 30 years we've monitored our beaches! - Tropical Storm Isaias brushed our coast as we kicked off August, which brought in high winds, some rain and extremely high tides that resulted in some loss in nests. After assessing our beaches post-storm, we roughly estimated that

A loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) laying eggs. Loggerhead females take 17 years to reach sexual maturity. Studies suggest that during the mating season, sexually mature females will produce pheromones to alert potential suiters. Once the female has mated, she will lay 3-6 clutches of eggs over a period of 12-14 days, with each clutch containing an average of 100 eggs. She will then not produce any more eggs for the following 2-4 years. Nesting areas are carefully chosen by the females as the

A male loggerhead musk turtle from a small rocky stream. In prime habitat, loggerhead musk turtles can get in very high densities, and sometimes squabbling and fighting can occur. Typical confrontations involve biting the marginals (edge of the shell) until one individual retreats. #turtles #wildlife #sternotherus #animals #nature | Greg’s Turtle Haven

Turtle hatchlings on the move 🐢🌊 This little loggerhead turtle recently made the journey from nest to sea on the mid-north coast. Alongside NSW TurtleWatch - Citizen Science Nesting Program volunteers, we kept a close eye on this nest since discovering it last December, and it’s wonderful to see these little gems make their way into the ocean. There were 120 successful hatchlings from this clutch, which is fantastic news for this endangered species. After a nest has hatched, great care is take

This loggerhead sea turtle hatchling was discovered during a nest excavation at Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park in North Naples, Florida. Unfortunately, this sweet little baby was having a very difficult time crawling to the water. It looked like something was wrong with its front right flipper. So tiny and so innocent. Sometimes it’s hard to accept the ways of Mother Nature. Hopefully it will survive its long, perilous journey to adulthood. Ladies, try not to cry when you watch this video. A sea

Sometimes there are still live hatchlings in the nest that were root-bound and didn’t make it out. The live hatchlings are then admitted to The Turtle Hospital for rehabilitation, w

#ThrowbackThursday to when we released Loggerhead Hatchlings into the Gulf Stream. 💙They were rescued in the Florida Keys where they were found following man-made lighting that disoriented their natural instinct to follow the brightest direction. They are born with this instinct so they can follow nature's brightest light at night, the open horizon. This feature allows them to find the sea just after hatching from their nests even on the darkest of nights.Reminder to please keep your outdoor li

Mama Loggerhead Sea Turtle Laying Eggs. For the past week, I have begun my morning walk extra early around 5am in hopes of witnessing one of these amazing creatures in her natural habitat. With me, I carried my night vision goggles, because I hoped to be able to capture the beauty of the event while keeping a safe distance away. As I headed South from my condo in Cocoa Beach, I only made a few dozen steps before I encountered the first set of turtle tracks leading deep into the dunes. A few feet

🌊🐢 Sea turtle nesting season is here! Did you know nearly 90% of loggerhead sea turtle nests in the U.S. are found right here on Florida’s shores? 🌴💚 Let’s do our part to protect these incredible creatures: ✨ Keep beaches clean—pick up all trash! ✨ Fill in holes and knock down sandcastles before leaving. ✨ Avoid using bright lights at night—sea turtles need dark, quiet beaches to nest. And, of course, don't get too close to the wildlife! #LiveWildlyFL #WeAreWildFlorida #LiveWildly #Loggerhea

Rare occurrence of a loggerhead sea turtle nesting during the day at Fort Fisher State Recreation Area, Kure Beach, NC. Video by Superintendent Jeff Owen. See our previous post for more information! Edit: Since we are getting a lot of questions in the comments, the turtle is fine and she is not stuck. She is using her back flippers to dig a hole for a nest. Once the hole is big enough, she will drop her eggs into the nest and return to the ocean. Park staff will then mark the nest and put a prot
