Turtles of Nantucket

  • Linda Loring Nature Foundation 110 Eel Point Road Nantucket, MA, 02554 (map)

Join us to learn more about the freshwater turtle species you can find here on Nantucket, including snapping turtles, painted turtles, and spotted turtles. We will learn about the general life history, movement, habitat usage and research we do on the turtles found at LLNF.

Walking over our gently rolling trails, we’ll explore sandplain grasslands and coastal heathland habitats, and enjoy views of Long Pond as we traverse a portion of the Linda Loring Nature Foundation’s Eel Point Road property. We’ll see what’s blooming, fruiting, flying, and crawling around the trails. Bring your nature questions- discussion is encouraged!

This program is free and open to all!
