Join Us for a Magical Night in the Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge

Experience the wonder of nature under the stars with a guided nesting sea turtle walk along the shores of the Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge.

Your evening will begin with a brief educational presentation while our scouts search for nesting loggerhead turtles. Once a turtle is located, your guide will lead you onto the beach to witness this incredible moment as she lays her eggs—an unforgettable sight!

Please arrive by 8:45 p.m. for check-in. We recommend wearing long pants and sleeves and bringing bug spray, as no-see-ums can be persistent. For the safety of the turtles, photography, flashlights, and headlamps are not allowed during the walk.
