Leave No Trace.
When exploring our natural areas—pack it in, pack it out. Bring what you need for your trip with you, and make sure you leave nothing behind. Place all trash in designated receptacles or take it with you when you leave.
Be Prepared.
Our natural areas are subject to the elements and the wildlife that call them home. Please do your research ahead of time—wear proper attire and bring the right gear for your adventure.
Sea Turtle Safety.
Turtles are excellent navigators in open water, but have poor vision on land where they lay their eggs. Therefore, it’s critical to keep our beaches free of debris and potential obstacles. Please fill in any holes you dig, knock down sand castles, and remove beach chairs & toys. During nesting season (March through October), leave lights off and do not disturb nests.
Fishing Friends.
Always check for sensitive habitats before anchoring, either visually, from a nautical chart, or using the Southeast Florida Reefs Map. Vessels 35 feet or smaller can safely moor to one of our system of buoys to protect offshore reefs. Please retrieve all fishing line and nets from the water to ensure fish and birds don’t get caught up
Manatee Safety.
Manatees are protected by the Florida Manatee Sanctuary Act, and are federally protected by both the Marine Mammal Protection Act and the Endangered Species Act. Observe all no wake zones and all boating signs to protect these gentle giants.
NOTE: You will not be cited if you accidentally collide with a manatee while obeying speed restrictions. Please take immediate action and call Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC).
