May through October is turtle nesting season. During this time, it is imperative that we avoid bright lights on the beach at night (red only) and never disturb a turtle nest (marked or unmarked). Learn more at VisitSouthWalton.com/sea-turtles and help protect these amazing animals.
With your support, we can ensure Walton County’s beaches are pristine and beautiful for generations to come.
Want to help us keep our beachgoers safe? We offer a variety of free beach safety related information and collateral at our Visitor Center for partners and local businesses to share. From magnets and footballs to pens, window clings, coasters and rack cards, there are a variety of ways you can help us ensure everyone enjoys our 26 miles of sugar-white sand beaches safely.
