Surfside Welcomes First Turtle Nests of the Season

The Town of Surfside celebrates the arrival of the first turtle nest of the season on our beaches. As these majestic creatures return, it's crucial to respect their habitat. Please adhere to these guidelines:

  1. Do Not Disturb: Refrain from touching or interfering with the nest or turtles.
  2. Lights Off: Keep beachfront lights off at night to aid hatchlings' safe journey to the ocean.
  3. Report Sightings: Notify our Water Rescue Team immediately upon sighting a nest or turtle.

Let's join forces to protect these endangered species and ensure their thriving presence in our picturesque community.
