Can you touch sea turtles?
NO, you cannot. It is illegal to touch sea turtles in Hawaii as they are protected under the Endangered Species Act. Getting close and touching them is very harmful. Keep your distance and help protect these beautiful creatures when you see them. You can actually get fined if you touch sea turtles in Hawaii, so make sure you stay away! Turtles are sacred in Hawaii so try to stay around 10 feet away at all times.
