Gumbo Limbo Nature Center's Turtle Walk Program

The purpose of The Coastal Stewards is to ignite transformative change, fostering lifelong champions for South Florida's imperiled marine life and coastal ecosystems. Through innovative technology, we share compelling narratives of sea turtles, manatees, toothed whales, and dolphins in crisis.  We actively collaborate with like-minded organizations in observation, rescue, transportation, rehabilitation, research, and release of these megafauna.  Our focus areas: sustainability, engagement, and awareness, are the pillars of our strategic mission, uniting us in the pursuit of a brighter, thriving coastal future.

Join us for a fun, educational program about sea turtles!  Our adventure starts in Gumbo Limbo Nature Center’s classroom learning about the sea turtles we find nesting in Florida.  Then we will venture out for a walk along the beach… and the chance to see a nesting loggerhead turtle! Check-in for this evening program begins in our classroom at 8:30 pm, and the program starts at 8:45 pm.  The program ends after one loggerhead turtle is observed, or at midnight (12:00 am), whichever occurs first. Turtle Walks are for ages 8 and up.  Minors under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.  Program participants provide their own transportation to the beach. Sea turtle sightings are NOT guaranteed, and compensation is not available if a sea turtle is not seen. Turtle Walks are a hands-off program; only the individuals listed on our Marine Turtle Permits can touch the sea turtles per Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission.
