Prepare your Beachside Homes and Businesses for Sea Turtle Nesting Season
Sea Turtle Nesting Season will soon be upon us, and that means all properties by the beach need to be reviewed for compliance with county and lighting ordinances. The Brevard coast reports the highest number of loggerhead and green sea turtle nesting in the United States, so it’s critical to the sea turtle’s environment that they are not exposed to artificial light.
The Turtle Nest at Port Canaveral
The Sea Turtle Preservation Society recently announced the grand opening of their new building, the Turtle Nest, located outside Cruise Terminal One in Port Canaveral, Florida.
Sea Turtle Preservation Society
The Sea Turtle Preservation Society, an all-volunteer organization whose mission is helping sea turtles survive, recently launched their new marketing and public relations team, taking a giant leap forward in spreading their important message to a world-wide audience.
Eco-Explorers Summer Camp
The Sea Turtle Conservancy has teamed up with Brevard County Parks & Recs through the EEL Program to offer a one-of-a-kind water-loving summer camp.
Act Locally
As the Volunteer Coordinator and Coordinator for Student Community Service, Mr. Weber is on the beach almost every day cleaning up. He will talk of the his experiences with umbrellas, towels and other finds.
Help Save Sea Turtles
This program, the Sea Turtle Emergency Response Program, has been developed to provide better beach coverage to search for and rescue post-hatchling sea turtles that have washed back ashore after a large storm event.

Helping Sea Turtles
Thousands of endangered and threatened sea turtles nest on Brevard County’s beaches each year.
Interview: David Godfrey, Caribbean Conservation Commission
The return of weary travelers begins again this spring as it has for years beyond our counting, as female sea turtles migrate back to Brevard’s beaches to begin the cycle of life anew. Last years’ hurricanes left Brevard’s beaches in shambles and likely destroyed any nests incubating at the time of the storms.
