Turtle nesting season in Ft. Myers Beach runs from May through October, and it’s important to be vigilant and cautious when walking on the beach during this time to avoid disturbing nests or hatchlings. Consider joining a guided turtle walk with a local nature center to learn more about these amazing creatures and their nesting habits, or volunteer with a turtle monitoring organization to help protect and track their progress. Remember to always follow beach rules and regulations, including properly disposing of trash and avoiding the use of lights or flash photography near nesting sites.
