🐢 The Tiny Turtle is more than a restaurant and bar - it's a cornerstone of the Cocoa Beach community! Last week, a fire damaged the Turtle, as well as two adjacent businesses (Junk Food Bakery, HairBiz for Men). No one was injured.

⛅ One of the best ways to help in times like these is often by supporting the business directly, any way you can. Example: Purchasing gift cards. 🫶 Sending all our love, light, and lift to everyone affected by the fire.
