As we wrap up another sea turtle nesting season, we're celebrating a record number of nests on Noosa North Shore. 🐢💚

Daily patrols along the Eastern Beaches recorded another strong nesting year, while increased monitoring efforts on Noosa North Shore revealed a record number of nests - the highest ever recorded.

A huge thank you to the volunteers from Coolum & North Shore Coast Care and the Teewah Turtle Trackers, whose early morning beach patrols, nest monitoring, and conservation work help protect our littlest locals.
