A crowd gathers at Coquina Beach near lifeguard tower No. 6 in Bradenton Beach early June 24 for the release of Henrietta, a loggerhead that was tagged with a satellite tracker after nesting. Henrietta is the island’s entry in the Sea Turtle Conservancy’s Tour de Turtles, which will begin in August. Henrietta will “race” with sea turtles tagged at other locations.
