Trachemys scripta scripta
I'm not sure what species this is... mostly dark green to black in coloration, with distinct yellow markings. After looking at his plastron, I think this one is male. Carapace length was about 12 inches.
Very, very friendly. Probably fed by tourists regularly.

Thanks, he was definitely on the older side. He was at least a foot long.
Looks like an old Yellow-bellied Slider, Trachemys scripta scripta
