Driving the Beaches During Turtle Season

The Mackerel Islands and Onslow are hot spots for turtle breeding and turtles are highly active in the area during turtle nesting season, between October to March.

Female turtles usually nest at night, crawling up the beach between two to three hours either side of the evening high tide.
