My job allows me to visit a lot of Alaska on a yearly basis. I wanted to capture the trips in one location!

Pohaku Park (aka S-turns); Two Turtles Sunning Themselves

on November 26, 2014

On all our visits to Maui we had not stopped at the Pohaku Park before (just down the hill from Maui Brewing Co Restaurant) but someone said I might be able to find some beach glass, so we went to fine it.  During the walk  I only found 3 smallllll pieces of beach glass but we had a better experience!

As we approached one end of the beach (it is broken into 2 parts in a way, divided by big lava rocks) we watched as a turtle walked out of the water and walked to the corner of the cement wall where he decided to nap.  We had to run back to the car for the cameras because we didn’t bring them on the glass search.  IMG_2731

We knew we had to keep a significant distance and we tried not to bother him.  IMG_1619

After pictures we decided to explore the other half of the beach and to our excitement there was another turtle that had beached himself to get some sun and rest.

this one was asleep quite quickly

Enjoy the pics, I know it was a great experience for us.   IMG_1626 IMG_1628    IMG_2740
