Green Sea Turtle

Chelonia mydas

Description:

Small turtle, 2½-3 feet long.

Habitat:

Near shore tropical waters; coral reef ecosystem.

Notes:

Spotted when it passed just beneath me while I was snorkeling in about three feet of turbid water offshore of Haleiwa Beach Park. It seemed unaffected by my presence. I was only able to get one decent image before it moved out of sight.
