Where is it? edit

Would be nice to know more clearly where this was taken. My guess would be Kahaluu Bay, but not certain. The description says Kona but that is a disambiguation page. Kahaluu Bay is in the Kona District of the island of Hawaii, and a common habitat for the turtles, but other bays in the district are as well. I was never happy with the turtle picture in the Kahaluu Bay article, since it shows swimmers that appear too close, violating the distance mandated by the Endagered Species Act. Alas, the uplaoder has been voluntarily blocked? W Nowicki (talk) 17:51, 16 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
