Summary[edit]

Description
English: The South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Marine Turtle Conservation Program is responsible for managing and protecting sea turtle populations in the state of South Carolina. The sea turtle nest laying season in South Carolina is May through August, with peak nesting in mid-June. The ten-year average nest incubation duration for a loggerhead sea turtle is 55-60 days. Nests begin to hatch around mid- to late July and hatchlings continue to emerge through October. After a turtle nest has hatched, DNR staff and cooperators evaluate the contents of the hatched nest to determine the success of each nest.
