Nest Fest 2025

Join the Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation (SCCF) for our first-ever Nest Fest — a celebration of Sanibel and Captiva's annual sea turtle and shorebird nesting season. With snowy plover nesting season underway, and least tern and sea turtle nesting beginning mid-April, we're gathering to honor the return of nesting shorebirds and sea turtles to our shores. 

The festivities will take place from 5-7 p.m. on April 14 at the Sanibel Community House — the evening before our sunrise sea turtle nest monitoring begins! REGISTER HERE: https://events.humanitix.com/nest-fest-pgd289mt

Nest Fest is a FREE, family-friendly event that will include kids’ activities (including a plover and sea turtle egg scavenger hunt!), a presentation on what SCCF and our dedicated volunteers do to protect coastal wildlife, trivia, and opportunities to support our work. Please RSVP by March 25!

Appetizers and drinks will be provided.

Learn about SCCF's sea turtle program and shorebird monitoring.
