Every year, BHI Conservancy offers the opportunity to support BHI’s sea turtles through adoption for the 2024 season. Adoptions provide support for the Sea Turtle Protection Program while giving our members and friends the opportunity to learn more about turtles and connect with specific nests and turtles on the island.
There are currently two levels of adoption available for the upcoming season: nests and hatchlings.
By adopting a 2024 nest, you are making a difference in the life of a sea turtle mom and her hatchlings. In return for adopting, you receive:
Assignment to a specific turtle nest when laid
Signage with your choice of sentiment attached to cage of assigned nest
Adoption Certificate
Red flashlight
Adopt-a-Nest sticker
7” plush sea turtle
Loggerhead Turtle photo and information card
Invitation to be “inside the ropes” for the nest excavation
