Why Sea Turtle Friendly Blackout Blinds for Sanibel Island Beachfront Homes Matter

Sanibel Island is a critical nesting area for loggerhead sea turtles. During nesting season (May 1 to October 31), beachfront properties are required to minimize artificial lighting that can disorient hatchlings.

Without proper blackout shades, even indoor light can violate local ordinances and endanger hatchlings.
