Lighting for nesting sea turtles

The proposed developments for the Seaforth area are exciting but please make sure that any lighting infrastructure is turtle friendly. With the lack of dune vegetation along the foreshore there have been problems with hatchlings getting disoriented and heading for the amenities block and into the park. Any lighting (new and old) needs to be looked at and adjustments made to ensure that the nesting and hatching turtles that visit the beach are safe and protected.
