saturation is altering the intensity of colours (or hues)
Photo edited without saturation

Photo edited with saturation
Note the difference in the colour of the sand in the lower left corner and the blue on the fish. Don't overdo the saturation tool.
It's very easy to end up with some bright, artifical looking thing.

Altering the saturation is simply a matter of dialling more or less in, using a scale or similar

with 20% increase in saturation
with 30% increase in saturation
