Sea turtle nesting and hatching season is winding down, although the lighting regulations stay in place until October 31st. Green (Chelonia mydas) sea turtles nest into September, then incubate for two months which brings us to the end of October.
Turtle Time has documented 71 loggerhead nests on Fort Myers Beach and 11 nests remain. On Bonita Beach, Turtle Time reports 152 nests and 29 remain. Sanibel has 24 green sea turtle nests.
