Sea Turtle at Hanalei Beach

Sea Turtle at Hanalei Beach

Although Hawaiian Sea Turtles (honu) are plentiful in the waters of Kauai’s North Shore, especially along the rocky Princeville coastline, it’s not every day you see a sea turtle on the beach at Hanalei Bay. This sea turtle was seen resting at Hanalei Beach on March 28th, 2019. Beach goers cordoned off the area with sticks and everyone kept a respectable distance, but plenty of photos were taken on this day. (FYI it is illegal to disturb sea turtles from their normal activities and it is also illegal to feed or touch sea turtles, punishable with potentially hefty fines.)
