2007 Turtle Nesting Season in Palm Beach County Florida

JUPITER, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Each year, from March 1^st through October 30^th, guests of the Jupiter Beach Resort & Spa are exclusive witnesses to one of Nature’s miracles: the annual migration of endangered sea turtles to the beaches of Palm Beach County, Florida. As David Godfrey, Executive Director of the Caribbean Conservation Corporation & The Sea Turtle Survival League, states: “Florida's east coast beaches provide nesting habitat for the world's largest remaining population of threatened loggerhead turtles, as well as globally important populations of endangered green and leatherback turtles. For these species to survive, Florida must protect its sea turtle nesting beaches.”

"As 'beachfront citizens' in beautiful Palm Beach county, Florida, we all have to be very aware of our responsibility to our environment," says Jeff Castner, General Manager of the Jupiter Beach Resort & Spa, which is located directly adjacent to the Carlin beachfront park in Jupiter, Florida.

To help educate guests at the Jupiter Beach Resort & Spa on protecting the nesting females and the hatchlings, each guestroom has two informational pieces. The drapes are decorated to get the guests’ attention with a sea turtle informational card tied to the drapery pulls, urging guests to draw their blackout drapes each evening to prevent the nesting females from becoming disoriented by the light as they make their annual visit to the beaches. A table tent, printed and distributed by the Palm Beach County Department of Environmental Resources Management, informs the readers of the dangers and pitfalls nesting females and the late summer hatchlings face on the beaches. Additional measures include limiting exterior lighting and covering existing lighting with a film that omits red light which researchers have determined has no effect on the turtle's navigation.

In addition to all the preventative measures to ensure the safety of the endangered creatures, the Jupiter Beach Resort and Spa also pledges to donate $5.00 to the Marine Life Center of Juno Beach for each reservation made in conjunction with their current Travelzoo™ Promotion(a).

The center, located just a few miles from the resort, is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, protection and preservation of marine resources, especially Loggerhead, Leatherback and Green Sea Turtles. The resort’s management hopes to raise awareness through their promotion by tying it to their international Travelzoo™ newsletter campaign, which, potentially seen by over a million travelers, will produce much needed funding for preservation and conservation.

The Jupiter Beach Resort & Spa is one of South Florida’s best-kept travel secrets situated directly on the Atlantic Ocean in northern Palm Beach County, nestled along a secluded stretch of beach. The Resort has an outstanding selection of on-property amenities and services. In addition, the local area offers some of the country’s finest golf courses and deep-sea fishing opportunities.

For reservations or more information on the Jupiter Beach Resort & Spa, Jeff Castner, General Manager, 800-228-8810, 5 N A1A, Jupiter, Florida 33477-5190 www.jupiterbeachresort.com.
