When visiting the beach, make sure to dispose of all your trash and remove umbrellas, coolers and lounge chairs when you leave—sea turtles can get entangled in these objects if they’re left near a nest. It’s also important to limit light pollution on the beach as it may interfere with a hatchling’s ability to follow moonlight to the sea. The hatchlings can become disoriented and lose their way, which is very dangerous.
