Sea Turtle Nest "Digs"

Sea turtles are an integral link in many ecological food webs throughout the world. Feasting on Jellyfish, sponges, and distributing nutrients, these world travelers are maintaining the health of Earth's oceans and supporting other marine life. The beginning of an arduous and long life journey begins on the beaches we step foot on every day here in Brevard County, and we want to share it with you!

Nest digs are public hatch success evaluations, or a permitted unearthing of a sea turtle nest found on our beaches to examine the contents of what was laid months prior.
