The Give Back

• The Coastal Expeditions pays the seasonal salaries of two wildlife technicians and three college interns to sustain the largest Loggerhead Sea Turtle Nest Protection Program north of Cape Canaveral, Florida. Through donations, fundraisers and proceeds from the Bulls Island Ferry, the Coastal Expeditions Foundation is able to provide the $40,000+/year needed to maintain this program.
