Best Local Events in July

Turtle Walks – The Loggerhead Marinelife Center will host the final Turtle Walks during the month of July.  This unique program allows visitors to learn about and observe the nesting and egg-laying process of sea turtles.  Experienced scouts patrol a designated section of Juno Beach searching for sea turtles while visitors enjoy an informative presentation and an after-hours experience to view current ‘patients’ in the outdoor Sea Turtle Hospital. Once a loggerhead sea turtle is found and begins her egg-laying process, the group is then led down to the beach to witness this unforgettable experience. Doors open around 8:40pm and close at 9pm, rain or shine.  Learn more on how to reserve your spot: http://bit.ly/2LaEmIJ
