Love our nesting sea turtles!

What a tremendous sea turtle season: a record number of nests (464), including two nests by green sea turtles and one by an Atlantic Ridley sea turtle (first ever on Hilton Head Island)! In all, our nests produced 33,690 emerged hatchlings, the surviving females of which should start returning to Hilton Head Island to nest in 2044-2054!! 🐢

Congratulations to Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort, Montage Palmetto Bluff, The Inn & Club at Harbour Town in the The Sea Pines Resort and The Westin Hilton Head Island Resort & Spa for being named among the top 20 Resorts in the South, and for Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport for being named the #2 airport in the U.S.!

Lights out for turtles!

Hatchling sea turtles are beginning to emerge from their nests and head to the sea. They are very vulnerable to beachfront lighting, which disorients them and results in hatchlings ending up in places where their survival is unlikely. YOU can help them survive by turning off all lights on your residence or business that are visible from the beach by 10 pm every night until October 31st. 🐢

Sea Turtles Need YOU!!
Sea turtle season starts today, May 1st, and continues through October 31st.
🐢 It is important to be sure that exterior beachfront lights are turned off by 10 pm to prevent turtle disorientation.
🐢 Interior lights bright enough to be seen from the beach can be shielded using window drapes or blinds, or turned off.
🐢 If you see turtles on the beach at night, be sure not to use flashlights or flash photography, as both can have the same disorienting effect.
🐢 To report a dead, injured or harassed sea turtle on the beach, call SCDNR (24/7) at 1-800-922-5431
🐢 To report a lighting violation, contact Hilton Head Island Codes Enforcement at 843-341-4643.
