Episode Details

Volusia County just shattered its own sea turtle nesting record with its 1,517th nest this season — the most ever recorded — and it happened right in Daytona Beach Shores. This surge underscores the vital role the coastline plays in the survival of these endangered creatures, who return annually to lay eggs in a beautiful, cyclical ritual. Even though the record was set, the season isn’t over — and experts say the long-term trend is steadily upward, meaning even “off” years are now better than ever. You can help by turning off beach lights, clearing debris, filling holes, picking up trash, and staying away from marked nesting zones — every small action counts in protecting these incredible animals and their future.
