Tybee pier gets mood lighting for sea turtles
Studies show that females shy away from brightly lit beaches, said Mark Dodd, a biologist with the Department of Natural Resources and Georgia’s sea turtle coordinator. Tybee sees far lower nesting density than other Georgia beaches, even other developed ones, notably St. Simons and Jekyll. Tybee averages 1.4 nests per kilometer compared to 12.3 statewide. Last year there were 10 nests on Tybee. So far this year there are four nests. And there’s the never-ending process of reminding residents and visitors alike to turn off beachfront lighting after 9 p.m. in nesting and hatching season, which runs from May through October. A recent water bill on Tybee carried a refrigerator magnet reminder. The center is also supplying hotels and other rentals with 10,000 key card envelopes that carry a “lights out” message.Turtle Island Resort - News
