Lover’s Key Adventures and Events and Lover’s Key State Park are always concerned with keeping the park in its most natural, beautiful state. There for we observe the mandatory Nesting Seasons.
Sea Turtle Nesting Season May 1st to October 31st
This is considered Sea Turtle Nesting Season on any South West Florida Beach. During that period of time, the park observes the “lights out” mandate of 9:00p.m. That means that all activity on the beach (including clean up) must be completed by 9:00 p.m. All events must end by 8:00 p.m. and clean up must begin. Please discuss with our Event Coordinator different options for your events during that time.
Shore Bird Nesting Season March 1st to May 31st
During this period of time, Mid Beach will have sections marked off for Shore Bird Nests. Locations will not be determined until that time. Area will be restricted.
