All underwater photos taken with a Nikon Coolpix AW100. We found a lagoon with five Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles and we have visited everyday. We have fantastic video too but way too much. It needs to be edited and made into one film.

Thank you all very much. Yes, they swim right up to you. They touch you and will eat the moss right out of your fingers. It is like being closer to Mother Nature than anything else I have ever done. A real WOW!!!!

Thank you Dorothy and Betsy. I think this one is my fave. I love them all and wish I could post the most amazing video here. I need to get home and figure out how to edit it down to one video and shorten it some. It is amazing to swim with these gorgeous creatures. They make these cute little breath sounds when they come up for air. I just love it!
