Sea Turtle Nest and Hatchling Adoptions help fund the sea turtle patrols and nest conservation here on South Padre Island! Our organization manages Kemp’s ridley sea turtle nest conservation for the US Fish & Wildlife Service. Each summer we patrol the island for nesting sea turtles and relocate the nests to a protective corral. The hatchlings are protected from high tide, predators, and vehicle traffic and then are released as soon as they hatch

Each adoption packet includes:

Adoption Certificate

Photo Magnet of a Kemp's ridley hatchling

Proud Parent Bumper Sticker

Sea Turtle, Inc. Drawstring Backpack

Sea Turtle, Inc. Logo Sticker
