PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — As sea turtle nesting season begins May 1, the Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve (GTM) is offering the community the chance to adopt a sea turtle nest.
The City of St. Augustine Beach says adopting a nest helps fund volunteer patrols, nest monitoring, conservation research, and the protection of hatchlings.
Through supporting the Sea Turtle Patrol at GTM, hatchlings are given a better chance to reach the ocean.
There are four different donation tiers, with the option to dedicate a nest, making it a meaningful gift for Mother’s Day or any other special occasion.
