Important things you can do to help protect our Topsail Sea Turtle population:

• Turn beachfront lights OFF after dark. Sea turtles are phototactic, which means light attracts them. Hatchlings will move toward the brightest light source, traditionally moonlight and stars reflecting off water to move toward the ocean. 
• Use only a red beamed light when walking on the beach at night, as white light is distracting and disorienting. 
• Flatten sandcastles, fill holes and remove any obstacles on the beach at the end of each day.  This includes chairs, tents, umbrellas, games, trash, etc. 
• Observe a nesting turtle from a distance. 
• Touching a nest or hatchling is against federal law, even if hatchling is in distress or not crawling toward the ocean.
• Leave any tracks made by turtles undisturbed. 
• Don't trample on beach vegetation. 
• Don't disturb sea turtle nest markers. 
• Report unmarked nests, injured or dead sea turtles to local police or sea turtle organization Topsail Turtle Project at 910-470-2880.
