When is the best time to see Honu (Sea Turtles?) in Hawaii?

In this video, we discuss the best ways to discover Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles at Blue Planet Adventure.
The best times to see Sea Turtles:
-Paddle when the river is it is less busy, early mornings around 9 am is a great time to spot them on the river.
-Be calm and quiet, be patient and wait for the turtles to come up for a breath.
-At low tide, the turtles are closer to the surface and easier to see.
-When the waves are big on the North Shore, many sea turtles take refuge in the calm river water and you can see up to 20-30 of them while paddling, making the Anahulu River one of the best places in Hawaii to see Sea Turtles.
-Look for Honu basking in the sun on the muddy river banks (they might look like big rocks).
-Always keep a distance, don't approach them. They are protected by law and harassing Sea Turtles is a crime in Hawaii.

Located on the North Shore of Oahu, Blue Planet Adventure features a beautiful deck, with a private launch underneath the Rainbow bridge, directly into the Anahulu river (A popular hangout spot for Sea Turtles). Locals and visitors alike enjoy the ambience and energy of the river, especially when majestic Sea Turtles grace us with their presence. We share our best tips, and etiquette for finding and enjoying Sea Turtles on the North Shore of Oahu.
