A few moments later, a pod of bottlenose dolphins leap joyously at the bow of the boat, accompanying you to your snorkelling spot. Looking over the other side of the boat, you drink in panoramic views of the verdant Kona coast and its unique black rock formations. Your Big Island vacation is off to a great start – life is good!
