I see that turtle nesting season runs March-October in Vero. What’s the best time to visit Disney’s Vero Beach resort if we want to see turtles?

What kinds of turtle related activities and walks do they run at the resort? And is it only during nesting season?

Thanks!

I'd like to know this also.
Hopefully someone will reply to your inquiry soon..................
 
The best time to go is when they do the Tour de Turtles release... You'll see two turtles who get trackers placed on them head into the ocean. They also tend to do a lot of parties.

It seems to happen the last weekend in July every year.

I believe the Disney staff is out every morning getting data on the turtles, but I am not aware of any turtle walks happening right now. Maybe they still are doing them, but I am not sure.
 
I am also curious. We wanted to visit in April, but I think not isnt the best time to see baby turtles. Bumping this up to see if anyone else has more info.

You won’t see baby turtles in April ;) July-September is peak hatching season. The Disney conservation staff will be on the beach most mornings from April-October checking nests. There’s an organization called Coastal Connections that does turtle programs in Vero and Sebastian Inlet State Park does them as well. (During turtle season)

Thanks. Also thanks for being able to read through my typos!
