I thought Alligator Point was near the bridge as you leave Destin. Couldn't imagine a turtle nesting there.

There is another Alligator Point in South Walton on the Bay side, so I was a bit confused for a second.

Fabulous! I hope the on-lookers kept a significant distance both here and when we see them in the water! Beautiful creatures! Thank you so much for sharing!~

It threw me for a loop for a second, then I remembered there are more nestings east of us over that way near Carrabelle, and Cape San Blas.
