The Permit Holder Meeting brings together leading sea turtle experts, state permit holders and dedicated volunteers to discuss current research, trends and emerging issues in sea turtle conservation across the state. During this meeting, FWC staff acknowledge the Permit Holders for the important work they do for marine turtle conservation and our agency – collecting nesting data, responding to sea turtle strandings, and rehabilitating injured marine turtles. 

This annual meeting has become an essential part of the Florida Marine Turtle Protection Program and is vital in rallying sea turtle conservation partners. This year, the meeting will be in-person only, allowing Permit Holders the opportunity to meet with others who do similar important work in Florida. Please email FMTPHM@MyFWC.com if you are interested in helping to sponsor the Marine Turtle Permit Holder meeting. You may also access the 2025 FMTPHM Sponsorship Form online.

THANK YOU for contributing to the 2025 Florida Marine Turtle Permit Holder Meeting and making this a special event for all permit holders.
