22nd Annual July 4 Turtle Independence Day Celebration

Since 1989, The Mauna Lani Bay Hotel & Bungalows has received 3-5 month old juvenile honu (Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle) from Oahu’s Sea Life Park and has raised them in the saltwater ponds of the resort.

The honu are cared for until they grow to a size and weight that is deemed appropriate for release into the ocean. Mauna Lani generally raises the honu for 2-3 years until they grow to a minimum shell length of 35 cm.

The release occurs every July 4 at the ocean’s edge fronting Mauna Lani. Over the years Mauna Lani has released more than 210 honu.

The honu will be gathered at the ponds before joining a procession down to the beachfront for release. A Hawaiian ceremony will take place at the beach.

The annual Turtle Independence Day celebration honors the honu and educates the public about the threatened Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles.

As part of the day’s activities guests can enjoy a July 4 BBQ with menu items including hamburgers, veggie burgers, hot dogs and shaved ice.
