Give a gift that hatches hope! Holiday Nest Dedications for the 2026 season will open on November 1st. Stay tuned for announcements coming soon.
Thank you for your interest in our Nest Dedications Program. Sea Turtle Patrol HHI is the only program permitted by the state to monitor sea turtle nests and hatchlings on Hilton Head Island’s 14 miles of beach. You can support our efforts by dedicating a nest to yourself or someone you love.
Nest dedications are 100% tax deductible and help fund our organization’s operations and spark interest in sea turtles for all generations.
Nest Dedication recipients will receive an official Sea Turtle Patrol HHI certificate with their assigned nest number, and a sea-turtle inspired holiday ornament designed by Sea Turlte Patrol for the 2025 holiday season. Shipping is available to US addresses only.
Donors and recipients will receive an email when their nest is laid (May 1 – mid-August) with the general nest location, and when their nest is hatched – approximately 60 days after the nest is laid.
Send us an email at nestdedications@seaturtlepatrolhhi.org and we’ll respond asap.
