Four Seasons Resort Nevis is engaging residents and visitors of the island in a seasonal program to protect the Caribbean’s migratory sea turtles. During the turtle-nesting season from June through October, guests can join nighttime Turtle Watch Walks with the Nevis Turtle Group, observe nesting sea turtles and hatchlings emerging on moonlit, secluded beaches of Nevis; and assist the volunteer group with marking nests for safekeeping and obtaining scientific data to assist conservationists worldwide to track the mysterious migratory paths of turtles.
