    That is one beautiful turtle!! The pattern on his shell is fabulous. Thank you for this very fine blood pressure dropping video.

    Good morning from NJ. Terrific video Jason. The last time hubby and I were there (end of May this year) I had the incredible experience of snorkeling with a Hawksbill in Salt Pond. It truly was one of the many highlights of our trip. Every time we visit STJ I buy one of those stuffed green sea turtles and they are piling up on our daybed in the “St John Room”.

    Terrific footage! Were you on scuba, or snorkeling? So neat that he/she let you get so close..at the end, when the turtle dives to the bottom…about how deep is the water? It is hard to tell with the water so clear! Can I request you replay this sometime in January or February to help us make it through the winter doldrums??
