About Us
The Beach Stewards program is dedicated to protecting sea turtle hatchlings that have washed back due to high onshore winds, large storm events, and the accumulation of seaweed on the beach. The program runs from September 1st through November 30th, focusing on minimizing impacts to these vulnerable creatures.
