STPS already is getting lots of calls and messages about exposed nests and eggs as well as hatchlings on the beaches.

Please leave hatchlings and eggs on the beach. If you encounter a sea turtle in need, please call the Sea Turtle Preservation Society hotline at 321-206-0646 for guidance and assistance. Thank you.

It’s World Sea Turtle Day! Today is a global event, but our Central Florida area is the center of the celebration. Our local beaches see more loggerhead sea turtle nests than any other place in the world. This makes our beaches critical to this species’ survival. Today we celebrate both sea turtle conservation and the man who started the movement: Dr. Archie Carr who was a University of Florida professor of zoology born on this day, June 16, in 1909. Celebrate the day and remember to keep the beaches clean, flat and dark. 🐢 📸 Sea Turtle Preservation Society

June 8th is World Oceans Day, the United Nations United Nations day for celebrating the role of the oceans in our everyday life and inspiring action to protect the ocean and sustainably use marine resources. The oceans are the lungs of our planet, providing most of the oxygen we breathe. The purpose of the Day is to inform the public of the impact of human actions on the ocean, develop a worldwide movement of citizens for the ocean, and mobilize and unite the world’s population on a project for the sustainable management of the world's oceans. They are a major source of food and medicine and a critical part of the biosphere. In the end, it is a day to celebrate together the beauty, the wealth, and the promise of the ocean.
