At this Big Island resort, you can snorkel just off the beach and spot turtles feeding on plants on the sea floor. Sometimes the turtles come to the beach, claiming a sandy patch of their own.

Inside and outside the bay, snorkelers will discover different species of fish and coral.

Snorkeling gear can be rented from the Orchid Beachboys, and if you've signed up for the optional Activity Package, equipment rental is included.
