2026 Enchantment Under the Sea Gala

Why We Auction. Why It Matters.

The Enchantment Under the Sea Gala's Silent Auction is more than a collection of incredible items and experiences - it is a directly lifeline for sea turtles and the mission of Sea Turtle Inc. Foundation. 

Every bid placed this evening fuels the critical work of Sea Turtle Inc.: rescuing and rehabilitating injured sea turtles, protecting vulnerable nests along our coast, advancing conservation research, and educating future generations to be better ocean stewards. From emergency medical care and long-term rehabilitation to nesting patrols and public education programs, the funds raised through this auction allows us to respond when sea turtles need us most. 

Because of supporters like you, we are able to give injured sea sea turtles a second chance, safeguard hatchlings, and inspire thousands of visitors each year with a message of hope, conservation, and action.

As you browse the auction, know that every bid - large or small - creates real impact. Your generosity transforms compassion into action and ensures Sea Turtle Inc. can continue protecting sea turtles for generations to come. 

Thank you for bidding with purpose, celebrating with heart, and helping us make waves for sea turtles.
