Waties Island, the northernmost barrier island in South Carolina is roughly 4.0 km in length. It is a private undeveloped barrier island at the border of North/South Carolina. All sea turtle monitoring by this group is authorized by the SCDNR Marine Turtle Conservation Program under Permit MTP500. We strive to help protect the sea turtle, and we are at it again this season! The site will be updated often during the nesting season - May 1st through October.
Waties Island Nest Count
Wednesday, June 17, 2020
Wednesday, 6/17
Started out with a fine mist, then finally we started to see the sun.
Found FC #7 right before the Possible Nest #1 near M6.
She didn't stay long, but there was a disturbance, so we probed but only found very hard sand.
She went up and turned around and came right back down.
This is a small lady, her track only measures 32"
