As Moana’s adorable and loyal sidekick, Pua is endlessly supportive, guileless and sweet. Pua is swimming in this year’s Tour de Turtles and is sponsored by Disney Cruise Line to help raise awareness for an important cause: ocean plastic awareness. Pua is the kind of sidekick who would faithfully follow Moana anywhere if given the chance and would love to see that path in the ocean be clean and clear of any obstacles like trash and debris. If we all do our part to ensure our waterways are clean and leave nature better than we found it, fellow sea turtles will have healthy habitats no matter where they swim.

I was named by my Sponsor, Disney Cruise Line. Check out my marathon migration map, where you can follow along as I swim to raise awareness about the threat of Plastic and Marine Debris to sea turtles. Please help me raise awareness about my cause by supporting me!
