Current News

Turtle Nesting Season Begins Early In Dade County!!!

Turtle Nesting Season starts April 15th in Dade County.  In Broward and Palm Beach Counties the season started March 1st.

Turtle Monitors survey the beach each morning just after sunrise to look for new turtle nests.  If they find a nest they will mark the area with stakes so that beachgoers know to avoid the area. Turtle Nesting season impacts beach cleaning activities in two major ways;

1. Mechanical Beach Cleaning cannot commence until after the 'all clear' has been given by the turtle Monitors, this could be as late as 9 am, depending on the number of nests that the monitors need to mark as they survey the beach.

2. In Broward and Palm Beach Counties, Mechanical Beach Cleaning cannot be performed above the last high tide line., i.e., only on the wet sand area, not the dry sand where the turtles nest.
