Here in Palm Beach County, we are approaching the start of sea turtle nesting, which runs March 1 through Oct. 31, and we couldn’t be more excited for the 2018 season! You might be wondering how you can help keep the beach safe for nesting sea turtles and hatchlings like these two. A couple easy do's and don'ts for nesting season are to keep your distance, let hatchlings emerge, turn off lights at night on the beach, don't leave any obstacles on the beach and fill in your holes.

#TurtleTuesday - We recorded our first green sea turtle nest hatch-out of the season this morning! We now have all three species; leatherbacks, loggerheads and greens currently hatching on our 9.5 mile stretch of beach! Our stretch of beach is one of the most densely sea turtle nesting beaches in the world, we currently have 10,266 nests! Nesting season here in Palm Beach County runs from March 1 to October 31 and we can't wait to see what our final nest count is! | Loggerhead Marinelife Center

Where compassion meets conservation. 🐢 Visit us seven days a week in Juno Beach to meet our sea turtle patients like Cayman! Cayman is a subadult loggerhead that was found entangled in fishing line with a partial amputation on his left front flipper. Cayman is awaiting surgery to correctly amputate the flipper and is currently taking antibiotics and iron. #loggerhead #seaturtlehospital #seaturtle #lmc #loggerheadmarinelifecenter #junobeach | Loggerhead Marinelife Center
