Turtles off Black Rock, Maui

This was one of the large sea turtles in the waters at Black Rock, in Maui. That is on the north end of Ka'anapali, right at the Sheraton Maui resort.

Just one of those simple Olympus cameras that work underwater. Well, it worked a couple years then stopped ;-)

While snorkeling at Black Rock, I turned my head and less than an inch was a the head of a giant sea turtle. I found it a spiritual experience. RHT

@EspiAww thats the rule down here in hawaii because they're endangered but still...im pretty sure a little petting isn't going to kill them. at the beach i boogieboard at, i see and pet those turtles all the time....its a beautiful thing.
