Featured Creature: Hawksbill Turtle
Monday May 19, 2008
Ever since a particularly memorable dive in Honduras when I swam with a baby Hawksbill Turtle for about 30 minutes they've become one of my favorite marine creatures. I suspect I'm not the only diver out there with such love for our reptilian friends. Stop by the forum and tell us all about your memorable Hawksbill experiences...

Hi webmaster!
When I first met a hawksbill turtle I was surprised they weren’t afraid for humans while underwater. I totally didn’t expect that.
We were diving in bonaire, with a hawksbill for about 20min and he just let us follow him also without being afraid at all, couldnt care less that people were around.It is awesome the underwater world god has created for us to see.
