Turtles & You: Eco Certification and Commitment to Sustainability

At Turtles & You, we take immense pride in our dedication to preserving Hawaii’s unique marine ecosystem. As a child company of An You Creations (AYC), we follow in the footsteps of our parent company’s commitment to sustainable tourism. Our eco-certification isn’t just a badge we wear—it’s a reflection of the values we uphold in every aspect of our operation. From reducing our environmental footprint to actively participating in the conservation of marine life, our mission is to protect the natural beauty of Hawaii for generations to come.

Being part of the Hawai‘i Ecotourism Association (HEA), we adhere to rigorous standards that promote responsible tourism. Our eco-certification ensures that every tour we offer is designed with sustainability in mind. This includes reducing waste, conserving energy, and using environmentally friendly equipment. We also educate our guests on how to engage with marine life responsibly, emphasizing the importance of keeping a respectful distance from the sea turtles and preserving their habitat.

An You Creations (AYC) has long been recognized as a leader in sustainable tourism, and as a proud member of this family, Turtles & You shares the same vision. Through our partnership with various environmental organizations, we work on initiatives that help protect Hawaii’s fragile coral reefs, reduce plastic waste in the ocean, and support the overall health of the marine ecosystem. Our tours are not just an opportunity to explore the underwater world, but also a chance to raise awareness about the importance of conservation.

Our commitment to eco-friendly practices extends beyond the water. We have implemented sustainable measures across our entire operation, from limiting the use of single-use plastics to ensuring that our boats operate with energy-efficient engines. We are continually looking for ways to improve our sustainability efforts, making sure that our guests can enjoy Hawaii’s beauty without compromising the environment.

At Turtles & You, we believe that every traveler can make a positive impact. By choosing an eco-certified tour with us, you are supporting a sustainable future for Hawaii’s marine life and helping protect the natural wonders that make Oahu such a special place to explore.
