That is crazy how the turtle can see that in the wide open ocean. I like to spearfish so I know how hard it is to see stuff like that from a distance of course the visibility here in San Diego is not as good as Hawaii that might have something to do with it.
Dude I bet spearfishing in San Diego is intense. Isn't the water pretty chilly over there? I've also heard rumors of frequent great white shark encounters, but idk maybe people were exaggerating.
But Ya I was blown away but the turtle's accuracy. Perhaps seeing us taking pictures of it drew its attention to it...
The water gets cold in the winter you almost always need some type of wetsuit. Right now the water temp is sitting around 59 degrees. I have only heard of great white encounters, I personally have not seen one.
