GCFL Turtles 1 One of my favorite things about GCFL is the fact that you can encounter all types of wildlife, from large majestic dolphins to itty bitty baby turtles! The residents of Gulf County take their role of wildlife protectors very seriously. Loggerhead turtles in particular call the area home. They nest along the St. Joseph Peninsula. Adventure Guide and SJP Turtle Patrol Volunteer Coordinator, Jessica, explains that on average, the 6-mile stretch sees between 90-100 nests, but this year they’re up to 149! You can help get in on the act of saving these turtles during your vacation. Check out this guide to learn more.

Now, for the fun part. There are actually quite a few great guides about the turtles on the GCFL Adventure Guide, but I’m looking at one in particular for my scavenger hunt question.
