Hawaii protects its turtles... and it works!

🐢 The Return of the Turtles to Hawaii: Immersed in an Ecological Renaissance 🌺🌊

Dive with me into the crystal-clear waters of Hawaii to discover one of the greatest marine conservation successes: the remarkable return of green turtles, once on the brink of extinction. Between underwater explorations, unexpected encounters and scientific explanations, this adventure takes you to the heart of an ecosystem undergoing a renaissance.

🐢 An Unforgettable Underwater Encounter

During my dives, I encounter several turtles swimming peacefully above the coral reefs. Their behaviour, movements and even their interactions with the environment tell a fascinating story: that of a species reclaiming its place in the ocean.

🌱 The Success of Exemplary Protection

Green turtles have been protected in Hawaii for several decades. Fishing bans, marine sanctuaries, tourism regulations... These efforts are finally bearing fruit. Today, their population is growing, proving that conservation can truly change the fate of a species.

🤿 Highlights of the Dive

Between exploring a mysterious shipwreck, observing a cleaning station where fish clean a turtle's shell, and a fleeting encounter with a white tip shark... every moment reveals a fragment of Hawaii's underwater world.
