It's time to say goodbye to our beloved Feebee and Milton! Our six-year old loggerheads have reached releasable size, and do we have an exciting announcement!!! Both Feebee and Milton will be released with satellite tracking devices, enabling us to gain some insight to the behavior and movements of captive-reared juvenile loggerheads!

We are sorry, but the Hatchling Releae tickets are Sold Out. The hatchlings released during this program are a result of the Turtle Specialists’ hard work. Nests that hatched three days earlier are excavated and inventoried by the turtle specialists; any remaining hatchlings are released during this night program. After a short video and informative discussion, participants are led out to the beach. After a line is drawn in the sand to keep feet and hatchlings from interacting, the hatchlings are freed to make their way to the water.
