The Waterlust team had the privilege of joining the Miami-Dade County Sea Turtle Conservation Program for a morning of sea turtle nest excavations! This team surveys the entire 19 miles of beach in the county every day from March to October. This particular morning, they noticed a few of the loggerhead nests had little turtle tracks which meant the nest probably hatched the night before! 🐾

During an excavation, data is collected including the number of hatched and whole eggs found in the nest. The number of hatched eggs gives them insight into how many baby sea turtles made it out. But sometimes there are a few stragglers that didn’t leave with their siblings. So the team gives them a helping hand to start their life at sea. We were just excited to see some baby sea turtles šŸ¤“šŸ¢

Want to experience this for yourself? Head over to their website for the public events happening for the rest of the nesting season.

*All sea turtle activities in Miami-Dade County are conducted by authorized personnel under FWC
MTP-26-150*

We’re stoked by how popular ourĀ Nudibranch NirvanaĀ line of advocate apparel has been, but bummed some people weren’t able to snag theirs before selling out. But if your rhinophores have been drooping since missing the first batch, good news, we just finished the second and everything is back in stock!

It’s Fieldwork Friday! We had the pleasure of joining our Mermaid print cause partners Ocean Rescue Alliance Int. for a day of monitoring their artificial reefs.

ORAIs latest artificial reef modules off the coast of Hollywood Beach, FL were deployed in May 2025. Since then, ORAI, in partnership with the Int. SeaKeepers Society and a team of volunteer scientific divers monitor six sites: 4 artificial reefs and 2 natural reefs adjacent to the modules.

Monitoring for this project included fish surveys, benthic and soft coral surveys, and photogrammetry imaging of each artificial reef module. Photogrammetry is a fascinating tool used in many different industries. Basically, it a process of capturing 2D images and stitching them together to create aĀ 3D model. A great tool for visualizing changes over time!

The monitoring data will help the ORAI team determine how the artificial reefs are developing biologically and structurally over time, and provide a way to compare them to the nearby natural reefs to evaluate their ecological performance.

Did you know these artificial reefs are open to the public? Head over to ORAI’s website to learn more about how you can visit! You may even spot a few mermaids šŸ§œā€ā™€ļø šŸ‘€

BTS from our recent shoot with our Mermaid Cause partner Ocean Rescue Alliance Int.! We joined the crew on a monitoring day, shooting the team as they conducted fish surveys and collected photogrammetry data on the ORAI artificial reef structures and adjacent natural reef.

We’ll post more about the day with ORAI soon, so keep an eye out!

5% of sales from our Mermaid Reef Builders collection is donated to The 1000 Mermaids Artificial Reef Project, led by Ocean Rescue Alliance Int. to advocate and restore reef habitat! 🪸🐠
