A diver and a Hawksbill Turtle swimming on Gulf Stream Reef.

Sometimes turtles will swim with us for a minute or two. But usually not.

And it's important to understand that it's not only not nice to harass turtles but that it's also illegal.

So no touching. No chasing. If they want to be with us that's great. But that is their choice, not ours.
