Green turtle

Pure bliss for a green turtle – a full-body cleanse and massage, courtesy of the local fish, whenever it turns up at the designated spot. Turtle Pinnacle, near Honokohau Harbour in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, boasts such a cleaning-station about 15 metres down. Sometimes there are several turtles hanging around waiting for service, and they rarely have to wait long.
