Five Green Sea Turtles Released by Maui Ocean Center
Five Hawaiian green sea turtles were released into Maui’s coastal waters recently, where they will continue their life in their natural habitat. These honu (turtles) were hatched at Sea Life Park Hawaiʻi and raised at Maui Ocean Center as ambassadors of their species, educating guests about Hawaiʻi’s sea turtles and the challenges they face in the wild.
