Green Sea Turtle. And this actually isnt all that big at all. If you go snorkeling for a decent amount of time at beaches in Hawaii you'll run into plenty of them.
A leatherback is all bluish/dark gray, has a leathery-looking shell and can be over 6 feet long.
very cool, and that moray was something else too. I was diving alligator reef in the keys at about 9pm and saw a massive loggerhead about the same size as yours. at first we thought it was a part of the reef until it turned arouned and stared at my camera lense. they're truly amazing.
Good video, I wouldnt go in the ocean at night either.I was waiting for a giant tentacle to come out of the dark and grab you. I didnt know those turtles got that big.
man you wouldn't catch me dead in the ocean after dark.. great video

I noticed the fish passing. It looks like it paused, checked the scene, and moved on.
