🐢 Watch out for turtles: It's nesting season at the shore

A female diamondback terrapin gets ready to climb over the curb after crossing Kneass Street in Sea Isle City.

They just don’t seem to look both ways when they want to cross the Jersey Shore’s roadways. So it is up to drivers to be alert for these crawling critters.

Terrapin turtles are mid-nesting season in and around Ocean City. This means both residents and tourists alike need to be on the lookout to keep them safe. Learn more about this peak season at https://ocnjdaily.com/news/2025/jul/05/watch-out-for-turtles-it-is-nesting-season-at-the-shore.
