Meet a Sea Turtle
NEWS RELEASE TOPIC:
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: July 1, 2009
Have you ever wanted to meet some of Florida’s magnificent sea turtles? Then take a tour on a Florida beach with the experts. Now is the best time of the year to go turtle walking. At Sebastian Inlet State Park, visitors are allowed to observe the nesting process of loggerhead sea turtles. Volunteer-experts scout out the park before the tour to locate the turtles and their nesting sites. At the Loggerhead Marine Life Center in Juno Beach, visitors are shown a slide presentation and then the adventure begins. Visitors can make a difference and “adopt a turtle” by donating money to help an ailing patient of the “Sea Turtle Hospital.” During the summer, kids can enjoy “Totally Turtles” and other fun summer camp programs. Get up close and personal with a sea turtle at the Mote Aquarium in Sarasota. Learn about each turtle’s history and what you can do to help.
