As sea turtle nesting season comes to a close, we want to thank our residents, visitors, and beachgoers for doing their part to protect these amazing creatures.
Your efforts, turning off beachfront lights, keeping beaches clean, filling in holes, and removing obstacles, help ensure that hatchlings make it safely to the ocean.
We also hope everyone enjoyed our weekly Turtle Talk Tuesday posts this season! It’s been wonderful sharing fun facts, nesting updates, and tips on how we can all make a difference.
With nesting season ending on October 31st, normal beach lighting rules resume November 1st, but we encourage everyone to continue being mindful of our coastal wildlife year-round.
Thank you for helping keep Nassau County’s beaches safe for sea turtles!
