The Veranda is home to cocktails in the evening and afternoon tea. It overlooks the Dolphin Lagoon, home to dolphins and green sea turtles, or honu. Here, a 2-year-old turtle gets weighed in and measured by a member of Dolphin Quest, which nurtures and studies the dolphins until age 4, when they have a better chance of surviving when released back into the wild.
