Beachside Science at Surfside: Turtles of the Shore

We have all kinds of turtles here at the Jersey shore!

During this presentation, Erin Rawls from The Wetlands Institute in Stone Harbor will introduce participants to several different species of turtle that can be found locally – including the Northern Diamondback Terrapin: the only reptile found in a salt marsh and the turtle you’re most likely to see crossing the road in Avalon!

Event is being held in partnership with the Avalon Environmental Commission.

If inclement weather occurs, this event will be moved inside adjacent Avalon Community Hall.
