Big Island Event Calendar

Turtle Independence Day

07/04/2008 Family Natural History

Held purposefully every year on July 4, this different event educates people about endangered Hawaiian green sea turtles. Watch as the young honu (turtles), which have grown up in the ponds at the Mauna Lani Resort, are given their freedom as they are released back into the ocean. Call the Mauna Lani Resort at (808) 885-6622 to learn more.
