This event takes place in one of the world’s most vital nesting areas for sea turtles. The Archie Carr Refuge is responsible for roughly 25% of all loggerhead nests in the U.S., making Brevard County a critical player in sea turtle conservation. With growing interest in coastal homes, waterfront properties, and eco-conscious living, events like this highlight the importance of protecting our shoreline.
