🐢✨ It’s Baby Sea Turtle Season! ✨🐢
Right across the street from The Driftwood, something magical is happening — tiny sea turtles are hatching and making their way to the Gulf of Mexico! 🌊
Help them have the best chance at life by remembering these turtle-friendly tips:
🌙 Keep it dark at night – Turn off balcony lights, close curtains, and avoid using flashlights or flash photography on the beach. Baby turtles navigate by moonlight!
🕳 Fill in your sand holes & knock down sandcastles – What’s fun for us can be a trap for hatchlings. Smooth sand = safe passage.
🚮 Leave only footprints – Pick up all trash, beach toys, and chairs at day’s end so little turtles don’t get stuck.
Let’s make sure these tiny travelers get their shot at a big ocean adventure. 🌊💙
