diamondback terrapins

I am a researcher at CBL in Solomons. I have a bunch of female diamondback terrapins, native to the Chesapeake Bay, which will hopefully be ready to lay eggs in about a month or two. I am looking to find a beach where we could construct a temporary enclosure to hold the terrapins. This enclosure would allow the terrapins access to both the water and and the beach so that they may nest. While some of the eggs will be used for research, a significant proportion will be returned to nature. If you can help by suggesting a beach or providing one, please reply. Thanks
