A hawksbill sea turtle (hawksbill turtle: hawksbill: Eretmochelys imbricata) dives back down from the surface to the reef after breathing. Turtles almost always dive down vertically after breathing, so if you wait below them, they will swim right past your camera. Misool, Raja Ampat, West Papua, Indonesia. Ceram Sea. Tropical West Pacific Ocean.
