Sea Turtle Week 2023
Welcome to our dedicated page for Sea Turtle Week 2023, a worldwide celebration of these magnificent and crucial marine creatures. Sea Turtle Week is an annual event observed globally to raise awareness about the importance of sea turtles, the threats they face, and the actions we can take to protect their habitats. During this week, we strive to appreciate and learn about sea turtles' significant role in maintaining the health of our oceans and ensuring the survival of marine ecosystems.
Beach Cleanup for the turtles
As part of our Sea Turtle Week celebrations, we are excited to invite you to our special beach cleanup event on June 10th. Sea turtles are endangered by plastic pollution and other waste that ends up in our oceans. By participating in this beach cleanup, you will be playing a direct role in safeguarding their habitats and contributing to their preservation.
The event will take place on Abacoa Beach in Arecibo, Puerto Rico and begin at 8:00 AM. We will provide all necessary cleanup materials. All we need is your passion and dedication to making a real difference. We encourage everyone, from children to seniors, to come out and join us in making our beach cleaner and safer for sea turtles and other marine life.
Please remember to bring sun protection, comfortable clothing, and a reusable water bottle. Let's do our part to reduce plastic waste while we protect our oceans!
