One of the beaches there was a protected nesting area and you could go on nighttime turtle watch type excursions.
I have never run in to it on the west coast of FL, though there were turtles rescued here as well, but on the east coast during certain times of year the hotels make you keep your blinds closed so no light can get to the beach. It has something to do with the turtles getting confused and moving toward lights instead of to the ocean.
