Local beaches provide nesting habitat for at least three species: loggerhead (Caretta caretta), green (Chelonia mydas), and leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea). Do not disturb or touch nesting sea turtles, hatchlings, or their nests. Sea turtles are protected by both state and federal laws.Turn off patio lights or close blinds/curtains for indoor lights so that they do not shine directly onto the beach. Lights can disturb nesting sea turtles and hatchlings.Fill in holes in the sand and knock down sandcastles before leaving the beach. These can create confusion and obstruct a path to the nest or the ocean.https://www.martin.fl.us/seaturtle Community Movie Night: Friday, March 27 Jock Leighton Park: Join us for a fun-filled Community Movie Night featuring Zootopia 2 on the 20-foot LED screen!
