The Education Department provides outreach programs for schools along with community events.ĭue to the COVID-19 pandemic, restrictions and attendance limits are currently in place at the Turtle Center, so visitors should check the website and phone ahead before planning a trip. Grade-school kids can enjoy a week-long summer camp filled with turtle adventures and learning opportunities. The Center also offers events and tours for small groups, including Turtles at Twilight, sunrise beach walks, nighttime Turtle Walks in search of nesting turtles, and Ride With Patrols to experience life as a sea turtle researcher. In the Rehabilitation Pavilion, home to recuperating turtles, visitors can watch and learn about the current patients. They also get to see inside the treatment room and watch the veterinarians work. Through a variety of interactive exhibits, visitors to the Center learn about life as a sea turtle…exhilarating journeys through tropical seas along with assorted physical threats. In addition to providing emergency care and rehabilitation, the Center is dedicated to research and public education. Since its opening in 2007, the Georgia Sea Turtle Center has tended to well over 1,000 sea turtles and even more diamondback terrapins from the nearby marshes. Those who are lucky enough to make it to the Georgia Sea Turtle Center on Jekyll Island have a good chance of survival. They can get an infectious disease, or get cold-stunned by sudden temperature drops. Loggerheads and other sea turtles can get hurt by colliding with boats. Add in habitat destruction, either man-made or climate change-induced, and the result is an endangered species. Those who do make it to adulthood often get tangled in fishing nets or eat too much plastic, mistaking it for jellyfish. Too many predators, on land and in the air. Most of the hatchlings never make it to deep water. With that many eggs left behind, you would think there are lots of loggerheads in the sea. Next year they’ll be back-mostly the same turtles-to the same beach location. And again…maybe four or five times in a season. Then it’s back out to sea for a couple of weeks until they come back and do it again. After clambering up the sand past the high tide line, our loggerhead sea turtles lie down to create a “body pit”, dig holes and lay hundreds of eggs. Every spring and summer, under cover of darkness, they invade our shores.
