Navarre Beach Sea Turtle Stranding Team has saved 56 turtles (so far) this year
Navarre Beach Fishing Pier is one of the leading areas for sea turtle strandings in the state of Florida. Despite Navarre Beach’s relatively small size (it’s only about 4 miles long), the pier and surrounding area can see anywhere from 45 to 67 turtles a year being rescued from fishing line, hooks and other entrapments. This year, that number is 56, and that’s only through September.
