Frequent encounters with Green Sea turtles during Volcano Tour from Kona

We frequently encounter these beautiful protected sea creatures during our Volcano Tour with pickup from the Kona side. This Green Sea turtle (honu) is basking in the sun on a black sand beach in Hawaii. If you look closely, you can see a tag on the turtle’s front right side. One must stay away several feet from this strictly protected species so make sure you bring a good zoom lens to capture some close up shots.
