Review for MALAMA NA HONU, Haleiwa, HI, USA
This is an excellent group - really nice people. In a nutshell, volunteers give Naturalist talk to the tourists and protect the 20+ Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles inhabiting the beach from harrasment (humans trying to touch them or block them from coming ashore to bask on the sandy beach.) It's a fun group to belong to and the turtles (Honu) are adorable. Most of the tourists/visitors are really nice to talk to and seem to enjoy receiving turtle related information from us. Beautiful sunsets at Laniakea Beach is another plus.
