A tiny nonprofit organization in Pinellas County FL with a mission to assure a suitable habitat for sea turtles, people, and the ecosystem of the islands and their surrounding waters. As the FL Marine Turtle Permit Holder for St. Pete Beach and Shell Key since 1979, Bruno Falkenstein has been dedicated to protecting sea turtles. For our 35th anniversary, our all-volunteer team formally incorporated as a nonprofit organization. We've grown a lot and we're looking forward to continuing in Bruno's great tradition.
