ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー 滑り台や飛び込み台完備の船で行く!<午前・午後/英語ガイド/食事付>by フェアウィンド号

Excellent transparency! 透明度抜群!

Reviewed by: ジュディ

I was able to enjoy snorkeling to my heart's content in the beautifully clear Kealakekua Bay. The crew members were all kind, and it was a wonderful experience. However, the meal was perhaps not what I would call a "luxurious BBQ lunch."

透明度抜群のケアラケクア湾で思う存分、シュノーケルを楽しめた。
クルーの方々もみな親切で素晴らしい経験が出来た。
ただ食事は「豪華BBQランチ」とは言い難かったかも。

It's perfect for families. 家族連れにもぴったりです

Reviewed by: Mihoko

I was worried because I had my son who is under three years old, but all the children's floaties were available for free rental. The staff was friendly and accommodating, which made it enjoyable.
Both breakfast and lunch were delicious, and my son was happy.
The snorkeling spot had clear water and was a great experience. It seemed to be full, so the boat felt a bit crowded, but the amount of food was sufficient, and during snorkeling, everyone enjoyed their activities, so it didn't bother me at all. The restroom on the boat was clean. They also provided careful assistance for snorkeling beginners.

3歳未満の息子もいたので心配でしたが、子供用の浮き輪などすべて無料でレンタルできます。スタッフも気さくでフレンドリーに対応してくれて楽しめました。
朝食も昼食もおいしく、息子も喜んでいました。
シュノーケルの場所も水がきれいでいい経験でした。満員だったようで船上は少し込み合った感がありましたが食事の量も十分だし、シュノーケル中はそれぞれの行動を楽しむので全く気になりませんでした。船の中のトイレもきれいです。シュノーケル初心者にも丁寧に対応してくれます。

A challenge in old age! 高齢での挑戦!

Reviewed by: トシコ

I was truly moved by participating in the dolphin snorkeling. My husband and I are 70 and 67 years old, respectively, and this was certainly the oldest challenge for us. I had previously experienced a dolphin tour on Oahu with my daughter, so I recommended it to my husband to share that excitement. I'm really glad we participated. We encountered hundreds of dolphins. It was a dreamlike moment. Daisuke, who guided us, put in a lot of effort to make the tour better, and I’ve decided in my heart that I want to participate again next time. Thank you for such a moving day.

イルカシュノーケルに参加して本当に感動しました。私達夫婦は夫が70歳私が67歳、もちろん最年長の挑戦でした。私は前にオアフ島でイルカのツアーは娘と体験済みだったのであの感動を夫にも、と勧めました。参加して本当に良かったです。何百頭ものイルカに遭遇したのです。夢のようなひと時でした。案内してくれたダイスケ、より良いツアーにしてくれた努力がすごく感じられ次も参加したいと心に決めました。本当に感動の1日をありがとう。

It's breathtaking. 圧巻です

Reviewed by: rokkizo

Fortunately, according to the guide, we saw the most dolphins recently. We were able to see dozens of dolphins and even swim alongside them. The experienced guide would find the dolphins and maneuver the boat to the best spots for encounters, and participants would jump into the sea as instructed. The guide was also very kind, making it enjoyable even for those who were alone.

運良くですがガイドさん曰く最近では一番よくかつ多くのイルカを見られました。何十頭ものイルカを見られ、並んで泳ぐこともできました。熟練のガイドさんでイルカを見つけては一番遭遇できる場所まで小回りの効く船で先回りして、参加者は指示どおり海に飛び込むという感じです。ガイドさんもとても親切で一人でも楽しめました。

Dolphin dolphin dolphin! イルカイルカイルカ!

Reviewed by: くまもん

We stayed on Oahu and the Big Island for our honeymoon, and it became the best memory of all. First of all, the clarity of the ocean is just amazing. A pod of dolphins swims gracefully through the water, filling the air with their adorable sounds. I was completely healed by the sight of a baby dolphin jumping while wagging its tail! It seems like there are manta ray tours at night as well, so I want to participate in both next time.

ハネムーンでオアフ島、ハワイ島と滞在しましたが、全てにおいて1番の思い出になりました。
まず、なんといっても海の透明度。
そのなかを優雅に泳ぐイルカの群れ。
たくさんの可愛らしい鳴き声。
赤ちゃんイルカがしっぽをフリフリしながらジャンプするしぐさに、癒されまくりました!夜はマンタツアーもやってるみたいなので、次は両方参加したいなぁ。

The beautiful underwater world. 美しい海中の世界

Reviewed by: なかむらっち

First of all, I was impressed by the transparent and beautiful blue sea. Lucky for us, just as we left the port, we discovered a pod of dolphins swimming with their dorsal fins out of the water. We even spotted some dolphins jumping. I was able to enter the water about four times, aiming for the route the dolphins were taking. The wetsuit keeps you afloat without any effort, but if you're feeling anxious, it's a good idea to use a floatation device. I think we borrowed floatation devices for about three people this time.

During the first time in the water, I wasn't quite used to the sea yet, so I was a bit slow to put my face in the water, and I barely managed to see the dolphins swimming far away. The second time, as soon as I got in the water and put my face down, I was able to see a mother and baby dolphin swimming slowly right below me. I could also hear their cute squeaking sounds. After that, I got more comfortable in the water and was able to enjoy the sunlight filtering through the water and the sight of many dolphins swimming around me.

At the end, Daisuke, who was driving the boat, insisted that he wanted to get in the water! He switched places with Jesse and jumped in, swimming like a dolphin. I couldn't help but wonder if Daisuke was actually a dolphin (laughs).

Jesse, who also provided transportation, didn't look Japanese at all, but he spoke Japanese very well, and I was able to hear a lot of stories beyond just dolphins, which made it really enjoyable. Thank you very much!

まず最初、透明で美しい青い海に感動しました。
ラッキーなことに港を出てすぐに、背びれを出して泳いでいるイルカの群れを発見しました。
そのうちジャンプするイルカも発見。
イルカが進行してくるルートをねらって、4回ほど海に入らせてもらえました。
ウェットスーツは何もしなくても浮くのですが、不安な人は遠慮なく浮き具をもらうといいです。
今回は3人ほど浮き具を貸してもらっていたと思います。
1回目はちょっとまだ海に慣れてなかったので、顔を水に付けるタイミングが遅れて、遠くに泳いでいるイルカをなんとか見れたという感じでした。
2回目は、海に入ってすぐ顔をつけると、真下をゆっくり泳いでいく親子のイルカを見られました。
キューキューというかわいい声も聞けました。
それ以降は水に慣れてきて、海中を差し込む太陽光とたくさんのイルカの泳ぐ姿を余裕をもって見ることができました。
最後は船を運転していたダイスケさんが、どうしても海に入りたい!と言って、ジェシーさんに運転をチェンジして、海に入るとイルカみたいに泳いでました。
ダイスケさんはイルカなのかな?と思ってしまいました(笑)

送迎もしてくださったジェシーさんは全く日本人には見えませんが、日本語が大変上手くてイルカ以外の話もたくさん聞くことができ、とても楽しかったです。
ありがとうございました!

The staff were very knowledgeable about the dolphins and spoke Japanese very well. They explained how to behave to see the dolphins better, and I was able to see many of them. Additionally, they frequently checked in with everyone to see if we were able to see the dolphins and if we were enjoying ourselves. Even for someone like me who isn't a strong swimmer, I felt safe and had a great time. I highly recommend it.

スタッフの方がイルカのことをよく知り、また日本語がとても上手で、どのように行動すればイルカがよく見れるか説明してくれ、たくさん見れました。

Even elementary school students are very satisfied. 小学生でも大満足

Reviewed by: たつお

We participated with our elementary school-aged children. My wife and kids were a bit unsure about snorkeling in the open ocean for the first time, but thanks to our Japanese guide Daisuke, the whole family was able to enjoy it. We are very grateful. Although there were no prescription masks for the kids, we were still able to see dolphins without glasses (they were that close). When I asked the kids about their favorite memory in Hawaii, they said it was meeting the dolphins on this tour. We would love to use this service again if we have the opportunity.

小学校の低学年、高学年を連れての参加。妻と子供達は、外洋での初めてのシュノーケルに自信がなかったようですが、日本語ガイドのダイスケさんのおかげで、家族全員が楽しむことができました。感謝しています。子供用の度付きマスクの準備はありませんが、裸眼でもイルカを見ることができました(それだけイルカたちとの距離が近い)。子供達にハワイで一番楽しかった想い出を聞くと、このツアーでイルカと会えたことだそうです。また機会があれば利用したいと思います。

ハワイ島 オーシャンラフティング&シュノーケルリングツアー <英語ガイド/食事付き>

Very satisfied. 大満足

Reviewed by: ITO

I came to Hawaii Island from Japan, excited for a vacation! This was my first trip to Hawaii, and I spent a full week on the island. Living in nature was incredibly refreshing.

We stayed at the Hilton Waikoloa Village condominium. Since there was no shuttle service to the tour destination, we headed to Honokohau Marina with the rental car we had. We drove south on Highway 19, turned right onto Kealakehe Parkway, and quickly spotted the blue-roofed mall, so we didn't get lost.

We arrived a bit early, so we explored the area and found it to be a charming port town, which heightened our excitement! Upon entering the building, we were greeted by an elderly man with white hair. Since I hardly speak any English, I managed to say "Good morning," and he responded with a smile. When I conveyed that I didn't understand English, he handed me a notice and consent form written in Japanese, along with an explanation of the tour and the sights.

There were about 14 participants in total, including two groups from Japan and three family groups from America (among them were four children in elementary school).

As we boarded the boat, we spotted rays in the harbor, which heightened our anticipation! Just 1-2 minutes after departing, wild dolphins appeared, and everyone was thrilled! It was amazing to see wild dolphins swimming alongside the boat and jumping, as if welcoming us!

Our destination was the site of Captain Cook's memorial! We sped across the sea, feeling the wind, but it was quite bumpy and sunny. Sunscreen and rash guards are essential.

The snorkeling point was in a calm cove with excellent visibility, and there were plenty of fish! My companion, who isn't a strong swimmer, was initially scared, but once we got into the water, they became engrossed and enjoyed snorkeling.

After about an hour of snorkeling, we returned to the boat, where homemade sandwiches were served. They were delicious! During several breaks, we also enjoyed snacks, juice, and pineapple! Eating on the water was an extraordinary experience, and the pineapple cut fresh by the captain was especially tasty! Break times were flexible, so even those without much stamina can participate comfortably.

After snorkeling, we were able to rinse off our hair and bodies with a shower! After that, we were guided to the sights. The guidance was all in English, which I couldn't fully understand, but I could grasp the general idea.

On the way back, we saw dolphins again, and when we returned to the harbor, we spotted a sea turtle, making the tour very satisfying!

However, since the captain's guidance was entirely in English, I think it would have been even more enjoyable if I understood English. If I could wish for something, having a Japanese guide would be ideal.

Overall, I was very satisfied, so I highly recommend it!

For those participating, I would like to share a few tips:
1. Be sure to bring sunscreen.
2. A rash guard or long sleeves; women should wear half pants over their swimsuits.
3. If you don't want to rent a mask and snorkel, bring your own.
4. A waterproof camera.

I think these items would be helpful!

日本からハワイ島へバカンスを楽しみにやって来ました!今回の旅行で初めてのハワイに!そして丸々1週間ハワイ島で過ごしました。大自然の中での生活はとてもリフレッシュ出来るものでした。
私たちはワイコロアにあるヒルトンキンクスランドのコンドミニアムに宿泊。
今回はツアー先まで送迎なしだったので借りていたレンタルカーで現地ホノコハウ・マリーナへ向かいました。
19号線をひたすら南下し、Kealakehe Pkwyを右折、すぐに目印の青い屋根のモールが見えたので迷いませんでした。

少し早めに着いたので周りを散策するととても雰囲気のある港町で楽しみが増して来ました!
建物に入ると白髪の老父がお出迎え!英語がほとんど話せない私はなんとか「グットモーニング」と話仕掛けると笑顔で対応してくれましたが英語はわかりませんと伝えると日本語の書いてある注意事項と同意書、そして今回のツアーの内容と名所の説明書きを渡されました。
実際に参加したのは私たちを含め日本から二組、アメリカから来ていたご家族グループ三組と14人位が参加(中には小学生低学年程のお子様も4人いました)

ボートに乗り込む時港にはエイが現れ、ワクワクが高まります!港を出港して1〜2分で野生のイルカが現れみんなで興奮しました!
まさかいきなり野生のイルカが現れてボートと並行して泳いだり、ジャンプしたりとまるで歓迎してくれているようでした!

目的地はキャプテン・クックの慰霊碑がある場所へ!海上を物凄いスピードで進み、風を感じられますが、激しい揺れと強い陽射しでした。
日焼け止めとラッシュガードは必需品です。

シュノーケリングポイントは波のない入江の小湾のような場所で透明度抜群で魚もたくさんいました!
泳ぐのが苦手な連れは最初は怖がっていましたが、いざ海に入ると夢中になって普通にシュノーケリングして楽しんでいました。

小一時間くらいシュノーケリングを楽しみ一度ボートに戻るとお手製のサンドイッチが振舞われました。それがとても美味しかったです!他にも数回の休憩中にスナックやジュース、パイナップルも!海上で食べる非日常の体験とても良かったです!キャプテンがその場で切ってくれたパイナップルもても美味しかったです!休憩は時間などは自分たち次第なので体力のない方でも安心して行えます。

シュノーケリングが終わるとシャワーで髪や青を洗わせてくれます!
シュノーケリング後に名所へ案内してくれました。ガイダンスは全て英語で理解できませんでしたが、なんとなくニュアンスでわかる?感じでした。

帰る途中もイルカが現れたり、港に戻るとウミガメが現れたりツアーとしては大満足出来ました!

ただキャプテンのガイドが全て英語だったので英語が理解できていればもっと楽しいと思います。贅沢を言えば日本語ガイドが付いていれば最高です。

トータル的にすごく満足できたのでオススメです!

参加する方にお伝えしたいことは
1.必ず日焼け止めを持っていく
2.ラッシュガード、もしくは長袖、女性は水着の上に履くハーフパンツ
3.マスク、シュノーケルのレンタルが嫌な方は自前の物を
4.水中用カメラ
を持っていくと良いと思います。

The Japanese guide, Daisuke, who came to pick us up, was very friendly and wonderful, making the bus ride enjoyable from the start. We were really surprised by how many dolphins we encountered right from the beginning. There are many dolphin tours available, but I'm really glad I participated in this one. If you want to swim with dolphins on the Big Island, I definitely recommend this tour. I want to join again, so I will work hard to save money and go back once I can dive.

Seeing dozens of dolphins under the blue sky... this tour became a lifelong memory. I would love to participate again if I go to the Big Island.

Even if you're not confident in swimming, you can easily join alone. The members when I participated were a group of three women on a trip, a newlywed couple, a husband and wife, and a solo foreign traveler. Everyone was full of energy, and while we were on the water, they would smile and ask, "Did you see the dolphins? There was a baby dolphin too!" It made me really happy to share the excitement even as a solo traveler.

And the guide was wonderful. They loved dolphins and seemed happier than anyone else on the tour, which made it so much fun to be around. It was truly an enjoyable tour. I highly recommend it. Thank you so much to the guide, the staff, and all the members.

何十頭のイルカと青い空…このツアーは一生の思い出になりました。

I had the chance to meet dolphins for the first time. We sped ahead of a pod of dolphins on a thrilling boat ride! When we jumped into the water at the guide's timing, we got up close to a friendly family of dolphins, and we could even hear their cute voices underwater.

Don't miss the graceful swimming of our guide, Daisuke. He also shares his love for wild dolphins and his own dreams. If you're worried about seasickness, I recommend taking medication before boarding.

Reviewed by: Joyce

I can speak English (intermediate level), but my husband cannot at all. However, after seeing some experiences, it seemed like we could enjoy it to some extent, so I decided to sign up to see Hawaii Island from the sea.

I thought my husband would feel more at ease if there was at least one other Japanese person in our group, but unfortunately, all five other groups were American. When we gathered at the shop and saw the others, my husband started saying, "Oh no..." While we did receive a paper with points of interest and precautions written in Japanese beforehand, to be honest, even if I tried to read the explanations of some highlights in advance, I couldn't retain the information, and if I couldn't catch what was being said, I had no idea which explanation corresponded to which sight.

The captain and the staff girl who accompanied us were kind. They paid attention to us properly. However, the chatter while on the boat was hard to hear due to the loud motor noise, and I couldn't even catch what the captain or staff were explaining to nearby people or the casual conversations they were having. I couldn't enjoy conversing with others. It seemed like the people around us sensed that it might be better not to talk to us, as we were quite alone during the snorkeling point, and my husband especially didn't seem to enjoy it that much. It might be more suited for those who don't mind their surroundings or for children.

It probably depends on the members of the group, but during our time, there were only adults, so the captain skillfully maneuvered the boat, which tilted quite a bit, making it a thrilling ride. However, even while moving, if you don't hold onto the rope tightly with one hand, you might get thrown off, so I think it would be difficult for anyone younger than upper elementary school age.

The snorkeling point was honestly average. Unfortunately, we couldn't swim with the dolphins, but they were always looking for dolphins, and thanks to that, we were able to observe different types of dolphins from the boat twice.

We took a taxi to the shop, and since I had requested them to call a taxi for our return, they kindly dropped us off at a nearby dock to save on taxi fare.

While we enjoyed the sea, it might not be suitable for those who are concerned about their surroundings. Also, please be careful about sunburn. I thought I had applied sunscreen thoroughly, but the hairline area that was exposed from under the snorkel mask got burned. And so did my parting... They told us to remove our caps as they might blow away. A hoodie with a hood is recommended.

私は英語ができますが(中上級程度)、夫は全くです。
でも体験談を見ていると、それなりに楽しめるようだったので
海からハワイ島を見てみたいと思い、申し込みました。

1組でも日本人がいれば、夫も安心するだろうと思っていましたが
残念ながら、他の5組は全てアメリカ人でした。
ショップに集合して他の人を見た時点で、夫は「え〜〜」と言い始め、
確かに事前に立ち寄るポイントや注意事項が日本語で書かれた紙をいただきましたが
正直、いくつかの見どころの説明を事前に読もうとしても
頭に入らないし、聞き取れないと、どれがどれの説明だったかはさっぱりだと思います。

キャプテン、同乗したスタッフの女の子は親切でした。
ちゃんと私たちにも目を配ってくれました。
ただ、ボートに乗っている間のおしゃべりは、モーター音がすごいので
かなり声を張り上げないと聞こえず
私ですら、キャプテンやスタッフが近くの人に何か説明していたり
世間話をしているような会話が聞き取れず、
他の人と会話を楽しむというようなことはできませんでした。
周りの人たちも、私たちには話かけない方がいいのかなみたいに
察したのか、シュノーケリングポイントでは随分時間があったのですが
私達はぽつんと2人きりで、特に夫はそれほど楽しめていないようでした。
周りを気にしない人や子供の方が向いているかもしれないです。

その時のメンバーによるのでしょうが、
私達の時は、大人ばかりでしたので
キャプテンがボートを自由自在に操って、ボートがかなり傾いて
スリルのある楽しい乗り物でした。
ただ進む際でも、片手ではしっかりロープを握って
いなければはじき飛ばされそうで、
せめて小学校高学年位でないと無理だろうなと思います。

シュノーケリングポイントは、正直普通でした。
残念ながら、イルカと一緒には泳ぐことはできませんでしたが、
イルカを見つけようと常に探してくれて、お陰で2度ボートの上から
違う種類のイルカを観察することができました。

ショップまではタクシーで行き、
事前に帰りはタクシーを呼んでねとお願いしていたら
私達のホテルの近所に桟橋があったせいか、
タクシー代節約してねと帰りはそこに寄って先に降ろしてくれたので助かりました。


海は楽しめましたが、周りを気にするような人には向いていないかもしれません。
あと、日焼けには注意してください。
私はがっつり日焼け止めを塗っていたつもりでしたが、
シュノーケルのマスクからはみ出した髪の毛の生え際部分が焼けてしまいました。
そして髪の毛の分け目も…。
キャップは飛ばされるので、外してねと言われます。
フードのついたパーカーがおすすめです。

プライベートチャーター ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー!GoProレンタルあり<午前/日本語ガイド>

The veteran guided us to the dolphins with their foresight. ベテランの先読みでイルカまで導いてくれました。

Reviewed by: Sori

The veteran captain carefully considered the habits of the dolphins and the interactions with other boats when deciding on the points, so we were able to swim with the dolphins four times (he even extended one session for those who couldn't see them). I would like to use this service again if the opportunity arises.

ベテラン船長さんが、イルカの習性と他の船との兼ね合いなど全てを考慮してポイントを決めてくださったので4回(見れなかった人のために1回ねばってくださり)全てイルカと泳ぐことができました。また機会があれば利用させていただきたいと思います。

Deluxe Captain Cook Snorkeling Tour at Kealakekua Bay - Fair Wind Cruises

Professional and Fun Group!

Reviewed by: Claire

Elvis and the crew are great fun, they really seem to enjoy there jobs. You would think taking boat loads of tourist out everyday they would get old, if it does they hide it well. They are a safe group and care for the island they are sharing with you. On the way back he turned the boat around to get us a better look at a beautiful Manta Ray. Well worth the time and money!!

The office staff is also great, they will call you to confirm, give you directions, answer questions. Really a great group, not a "sketchy tourist trap"!

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー 滑り台や飛び込み台完備の船で行く!<午前・午後/英語ガイド/食事付>by フェアウィンド号

I managed to get by even without speaking English. 英語しゃべれなくてもなんとかなりました

Reviewed by: ひまわり

I can hardly speak English, but I decided to join the tour anyway! It was an afternoon tour.

Keauhou Bay felt like a hidden gem and had a bit of a mystical vibe. The water was very clear, and there were plenty of fish, but I felt that the quantity and variety were not much different from Kahalu'u Beach Park. For those who are used to snorkeling, it might feel a bit lacking.

The staff were friendly and kind. Even though I didn't understand the language, I was able to enjoy myself and it became a wonderful memory.

Below, I will outline the flow of the day. For those who also struggle with English, I hope this helps!

------------

First, upon arriving on the Big Island, I had to make a reconfirmation call, which was the biggest hurdle. You can find detailed information about reconfirmation on the VELTRA website.

Since I didn’t have a rental car that day, I walked from the Sheraton Hotel to the meeting point. It took about 5 minutes on foot.

When I handed over the voucher at the reception, there was a quick explanation in English. Looking back, I think they mentioned that the snorkeling masks would be provided before boarding, and the fins would be handed out on the boat.

There was only one other group of Japanese people besides us, which was reassuring.

We had to wait quite a while until the morning tour's boat returned and the preparations were finished. It was hot outside.

After that, the rental of snorkeling masks began. At some point, they gathered people for the SNUBA activity and had them sign a consent form, but I wasn't sure if those were people who had pre-registered or if they were recruiting on the spot. Once the English explanation before boarding was done, we got on the boat.

The view from the second floor of the boat was great, but it seemed tough in the sunny spots. The ride took over 30 minutes.

Along the way, we encountered 4 to 5 dolphins! The people in the front seats seemed to see them well, but since we were in the middle of the second floor, we only caught a glimpse of their fins.

Near the counter on the first floor, there were snacks like water, tropical juice, and a mix of rice crackers and pretzels available for us to take freely. There were also restrooms.

The staff came around to distribute the fins. We had our own, so we didn’t borrow any, but the staff kindly asked us, “Do you have fins?” to check on us.

When we arrived at the snorkeling spot, we could also borrow floaties and other flotation devices, so those who are unsure about swimming can feel safe. The depth was completely beyond our feet.

In addition to snorkeling, we could enjoy diving from the boat and using a slide. I think we had about an hour of free time.

During the return trip, there was a fruit service as a signal to head back to the boat.

I didn’t see anyone giving tips, so I wasn’t sure when to give one. Those who were experienced might have discreetly tipped without others noticing.

That’s all.

I think you can have a great time even if you don’t understand English, as long as you can keep yourself safe! For those who are going soon, enjoy your trip!

英語はほぼしゃべれないのですが思い切って参加しました!午後のツアーです。

ケアウホウ湾は秘境の地という感じがしてちょっと神秘的でした☆
水の透明度が高く魚もたくさんいましたが、カハルウビーチパークと量も種類もそんなに変わりなかったように感じます。慣れてる人だと物足りないかも?

スタッフの方は気さくで親切でした。言葉がわからないなりに楽しめてとても良い思い出になりました。

下記、当日の流れを書きます。同じように英語が苦手な方、よかったら参考にしてください♪

------------

まずハワイ島に到着したらリコンファームという到着確認の電話をしなければならず、これが一番ハードル高かったです。
リコンファームについてはVELTRAさんのサイトに詳しく書いてあります。

当日はレンタカーではなかったのでシェラトンホテルから集合場所まで歩きました。
徒歩5分です。

受付でバウチャーを渡すと英語でさらさらっと説明がありました。
後から考えるとシュノーケルマスクは乗船前、フィンは船で渡しますと言っていたと思います。

日本人は私達以外に1組だけいらっしゃったので心強かったです。

午前のツアーの船が戻って来て船内の準備が終わるまでけっこう待ちました。外なので暑いです。

その後シュノーケルマスクの貸出が始まりました。
途中でスヌーバをやる人を集めて同意書を書かせたりしていたようですが、あらかじめ申し込んでいた人なのかその場で募ったのかなわかりませんでした。
英語による乗船前の説明が済んだら乗り込みです。

船は二階だと見晴らしがいいですが日が当たる場所はキツそうでした。乗船時間は30分以上はあります。

途中でイルカ4~5頭に会いました!前の席の方たちはしっかり見れていたようですが、二階の真ん中の席だった私達は背びれが見れたくらいです。

1階のカウンター付近に水とトロピカルジュース、おかきやプレッツェルが混ざったスナックが置いてあり自由に取りに行く感じでした。トイレもあります。

フィンはスタッフの方が配りに来てくれます。
私達は自分のがあったので借りませんでしたが、スタッフさんが代わる代わる「フィンはある?」と気遣ってくれました。


スポットに着いたら浮き輪や体に巻く浮き具も借りられますので泳ぎが不安な方も安心です。足は全くつかない深さです。

シュノーケル以外にも、船からのダイブや滑り台で楽しむことができます。
自由時間は1時間くらいだったと思います。

終了の合図で船に戻り帰路についている間、フルーツのサービスがありました。


チップは渡している人を見かけなかったためタイミングがわからず渡していません。
慣れている方々は他の人にわからないようにスマートに渡していたのかもしれません。


以上です。

英語がわからなくても自分で安全を守れれば十分楽しめると思います!
これから行かれる方、楽しんできてくださいね♪
