🐢🦪 One of the most common questions we get at the Navarre Beach Sea Turtle Conservation Center is: “What happens to the barnacles on rescued sea turtles?”

This group did an amazing job explaining barnacles and the removal process! 🐢💚

Keep in mind, though, that every rehabilitation hospital is different, and protocols can vary depending on each turtle’s health and individual needs. Treatment decisions are always made by trained rehabilitation and veterinary teams.

Check out the video below to learn more about these little hitchhikers! 🌊🐢

Our rescue team has already responded to 47 sea turtle rescues in 2026, accidentally hooked from the Navarre Beach Fishing Pier.
