"Green turtles are native to Hawai'i and can be found in shallow coastal waters of our islands. The turtles commonly come into shallow waters to feed on the algae (limu) growing on the bottom. During the past few years, green turtles have begun to crawl out on the sand and rocks to 'bask,' primarily during daylight hours. This basking is a natural behavior unique to Hawaiian green turtles."
