Hundreds of endangered baby sea turtles were released into the ocean with the help of the US Coast Guard and the Gumbo-Limbo Nature Center in Boca Raton, Florida. 
Among the turtle hatchlings were Loggerhead and Green turtles which nest in the area and are both protected species. 
Experts carefully lowered them into the water and sent them on their way.
