About

Caswell Beach Turtle Watch is a private, non-profit, volunteer program devoted to the preservation of the turtles that nest on Caswell Beach in North Carolina.

The program is staffed with an average of 120 dedicated volunteers each year who patrol the beach in the morning from May through September, and sit by in the evening watching for the hatchlings to emerge from the nests.

To help defray costs of our operations, including gasoline and supplies to protect the nests from predators, Caswell Beach Turtle Watch sells T-Shirts, Ball Caps, and plush turtle toys at the Caswell Beach Town Hall on specific days during the summer season. Please stop by and purchase one of these wonderful souvenirs!
