STPS Turtle Walk Experience

This turtle walk experience includes 2 tickets to a mutually agreed upon date in either June or July, 2023, with STPS Turtle Walk Team, 2 commemorative turtle walk shirts, 2 STPS logo stickers and 2 silicone turtle cups. 

There are no guarantees that guests will see actual nesting, though – because it is all up to Mother Nature and the respective sea turtle to cooperate. However, the STPS turtle walk team has a very good success rate because we’re located near the Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge, the site of the second largest loggerhead nesting area in the world!

Turtle night walks are rain or shine! Please wear beach-appropriate dark clothing with comfortable shoes, as you may have to walk up to 1/2 a mile on the beach each way to see a turtle.  Please no children under 7.  There will be no flash photography or lights on the beach.  Bug repellent is highly recommended. 

What to expect:

• Guests arrive on the night of the walk.
• The night begins with a presentation about sea turtles that nest in the area, the threats they encounter, and what we can do to help.
• Meanwhile, permitted scouts are looking for loggerheads that are coming ashore to nest.
• If a scout spots a nesting loggerhead, the group is led to the location and allowed to observe while the turtle is laying her eggs.

Winner will be contacted to pick the mutually agreed upon date and to determine the size of shirts needed. Items will be available for pick up.
