Dolphins!!!!! - Big Island Snorkeling
by Cyndie Pelto
Everyone we talked to told us to go to two steps. So our first night in Kona, we rented our snorkel gear and headed down there. We swam with a few turtles and caught a beautiful sunset. The next day, we decided to go back for more. After snorkeling for about an hour, we took a break and were sunning ourselves on the lava rocks. My hubby spoke up and said look at that thing jumping out of the water! Within minutes, everyone was pointing at the huge school of dolphins that had entered the bay. We ran to the water with our snorkel gear and swam as fast as we could, also remembering the camera! Cannot even begin to describe what we saw. I'll try. Over 40 dolphins, in smaller groups, all swimming and breaching, in the cove. It was something I will never forget. Several actually swan right up behind me and then along side me. Amazing amazing amazing!!!
