One for the record books, we'd say! She is called a daytime nester. She was near a very popular beach and many people got to see her nest , and by the time she was finished, over one hundred people got to see her crawl back to the water after finishing her nest. For those of you who know that a sea turtle is a reptile and that reptiles can't regulate their own body temperature, this was early enough in the day that the sun was not going to overheat her. Whew! Sea Turtle Patrol staff (MTP566) was on hand to see to her safety, and you can tell how respectfully the growing crowd was behaving. Well done all of you!

Couldn’t ask for better weather or a better group to be exploring the waters with! Dolphins, shells and sunshine!

Stopped off along the Cooper River when these guys showed up and began playing around the boat! Definitely made an impression on everyone! Couldn't ask for a better day on the water.

Such an up and down day with the weather to be rewarded with a fantastic finish.

Dolphins strand for a variety of reasons. Some specific coast lines make it more difficult for them to navigate using echolocation, a dolphin might be sick or injured due to human caused or naturally occurring issues, or a large group might all wash up on the coast together. Whatever the cause is, it is important to do our best to try to limit human caused wildlife injuries and to report a stranding if you see one. The SCMMSN responds to ~50-80 marine mammals in South Carolina each year. We strive to respond to every animal to give us a better understanding of their health and the health of our oceans. Report strandings to: 800.922.5431.

Strong negative tides of the New Moon will be coinciding with daylight hours in early March. While the Full Moon "big" low tide will be in the early hours of the day, the secondary low will be sufficient to expose some decent areas of the sandbar. Lets go exploring!

Did you know that an adult dolphin can eat up to 55 pounds of fish EVERYDAY? That's around 33,000 calories a day! That would be equivalent to a human eating almost 60 Big Macs daily.🥴

Watching pods of dolphins commingling in the protected waters around Hilton Head Island, its very common for them to pass nearby. Tamanend's bottlenose dolphins live their entire lives within the shallow estuaries of the east coast and are used to boat traffic. When spotting them, we'll slow down, put the boat in nuetral, and let them move about.

Did you know our waters are also home to cownose rays? Considered a pelagic species, these rays can be found along inshore areas and can tolerate brackish conditions. They'll feed on just about anything, from zooplankton, to crabs, mollusks and bivalves, including oysters! Here we have a fever of rays cruising along the May River. 🐬 🐬 🐬 🐬 #cownoseray #fever #hiltonheadisland #tripadvisor #springbreak

Gotta keep your head on a swivel when out on the water 😆. You never know for sure what's going to jump up when or where! 🐬 #dolphins #familyvacation #dolphinwatching #hiltonheadisland

BIG system moving in this morning making the island wet and windy! It's going to be a great day to stay in, make a hot drink and read a book.
