ホエールウォッチングクルーズ  2階建てカタマラン船に乗って壮大なクジラの姿を観察!<12~3月/軽食付き/英語ガイド/カイルアコナ発>

I couldn't see any whales... クジラ見られず…

Reviewed by: ミント

Unfortunately, we were unable to see any whales. I had read experiences beforehand and thought there would be plenty of soft drinks, fruits, and snacks available on the boat, but there was nothing to eat. The fruits disappeared in no time, and all that was left were broken chips. Soft drinks were unlimited.

残念ながらクジラを見ることはできませんでした。
事前に体験談を読んで、ソフトドリンク、フルーツや軽食などが船に豊富に用意されているように思っていましたが、口にするものは何もなかったです。
フルーツはあっという間になくなってしまい、あったのは割れたチップスだけでした。
ソフトドリンクは飲み放題です。

I was able to see dolphins up close! イルカを真近で見れました!

Reviewed by: kodama

All the tour guides were kind and very interesting! They shared a lot of love and knowledge about dolphins, which made it enjoyable on its own. They provided precise support to ensure we had a good encounter with the dolphins during the actual tour. It was really fun! I'm glad I chose this tour. I would like to book a tour here again when I go to Hawaii!

ツアーガイドの方がどの方も親切で、とっても面白い!
イルカに対する愛情と知識も沢山話していただいて、それだけでも楽しめました(^^)
実際のツアーでもイルカにしっかり遭遇できるように的確にサポートしてくださいます。
本当に楽しかったです!
このツアーにして良かった☆
またハワイに行くときはこちらでツアーを頼みたいと思います^_^

I was looking forward to it, but... 期待していたけど…

Reviewed by: ミシェル

I signed up because I wanted to see whales, but in the end, I couldn't see any. All I saw were a few small sharks and dolphins in the distance. Since both the sharks and dolphins were far away, it wasn't very exciting, and with nothing to see in the vast ocean, the nearly three-hour duration became quite boring. Considering it was a bit pricey for a cruise, I wonder if I can endure it...

Reviewed by: ロマロマ

I was a bit scared when they said there were no life jackets, but surprisingly, I floated just fine. I was so moved to see a pod of dolphins, and then… a big shark was slowly swimming along the bottom, and I was told to get back on the boat quickly. Wait, seriously? That silhouette was definitely a shark. It was huge. I heard that sharks eat dolphins.

So, I might have spent less time in the water, but I made it back safely, so it’s a good memory.

ライフジャケットなしって言われて、ちょっとびびったけど、意外と浮くので、なんとか。
イルカの群れに会えて感動と思ったら…大きなシャークが、水底をゆーっくり泳いでて、早く、ボートに上がってって。えっ、まじか。

If you go to Big Island, the Sea Quest Manta Ray Snorkeling tour is a must!

Reviewed by: Martin & Bonnie

Night snorkeling with Manta Rays was definitely one of the highlights on our trip to The Big Island!
You get the opportunity to see these huge, gracious creatures up close under the water but no fear, they are not dangerous at all. The SeaQuest crew did an excellent job, making sure everyone felt safe and comfortable on the boat, in the water and with the snorkeling gear.
The crew were very knowledgeable and caring about the Manta rays safety too. After the tour, everyone was served hot chocolate and cookies. Tip: bring warm clothes.

Those who get seasick might have a tough time. 船酔いする方は大変かも。

I participated because I wanted to see manta rays up close. The boat ride was fine, but while we were searching for the manta point, the boat was stopped and it was really rocky, causing more than half of the people to get seasick. I felt so nauseous that it was tough to get into the water.

I did see the manta rays, but the seasickness was so painful that it diminished the enjoyment...

船で移動中は大丈夫でしたが、マンタポイントを探す間、船が止まっていたんですが、揺れが凄くて半数以上の人が船酔いしていました。

Keauhou Bay Manta Ray Night Dive Tour & Snorkel Adventure from Kona - Sea Quest

Great service and staff. Manta ray was spectacular but lots of waiting to see.

Reviewed by: Tim

Overall, great and once in a lifetime experience to see manta ray(s) up close. We also saw a reef shark and lots of schooling fish. Seaquest provides you with everything you need (wet suit, snorkel gear, etc.). You may leave your dry items on the boat (ie. valuables, phones). All you really need is a towel since it can get chilly after.

We saw one manta ray up close which was spectacular. The remainder of the snorkeling experience was a lot of waiting around and viewing other wildlife. Staff were kind and willing to help out with all our needs.

This was an experience of a lifetime. The guys and girls and SeaQuest we're so helpful and made the night so much fun. They even called as we got a little turned around on the way there.

From the start of this tour we knew it was going to be great. The staff are friendly & engaging. Admittedly it was only our family of 4, which was really nice. The whole afternoon was filled with tuna jumping around us, checking out caves, snorkelling in what I can only describe as one of the best snorkel locations I have ever been to, finishing with dolphins swimming with us on our way back!

I recommend it! 😊 おススメです(^^)

Reviewed by: Erie

I love dolphin swimming and have been to Mikurajima in Japan and the Bahamas in the past.

During my first visit to the Big Island, I participated in tours with your company and another local American company led by a captain with a small group. If I have the chance to come again, I would like to request Aloha Kona Tours. (^^)

The tour guide provided clear instructions, and the captain was attentive to observing the dolphins.

I believe both first-time dolphin swimmers and experienced ones can feel at ease.

The dolphins I encountered this time were often resting or moving around, so I hope to have the chance to communicate joyfully with them again someday. ♬

The sight of the wild spinner dolphins jumping was breathtaking.

Thank you very much!

Keauhou Bay Manta Ray Night Dive Tour & Snorkel Adventure from Kona - Sea Quest

Great night snorkeling with mantas

Reviewed by: Sharon Savant

Our tour was initially rescheduled due to inclement weather. Sea Quest was really professional and gave us a free GoPro rental to make up for the inconveniences. On the day of the tour, they prepped us with all the necessary gear (prescription snorkels, wet suits, regular snorkels, etc.) And gave us a brief overview of what to expect before we headed into the waters.
We saw about 5 mantas that night. They swam close by and it was a really cool experience. There were 2 sea Quest employees in the water with us helping us each step of the way whether it be to adjust the snorkels or retrieve a noodle. They also kept giving us information about the mantas to make the trip more enjoyable.
After about 45 min in the water it was a short ride back to shore where they had hot chocolate and bags of cookies waiting for us.
Over all a very fun experience. Would definitely recommend.

Since it was a "budget trip," I participated in the afternoon plan and thoroughly enjoyed it.

The weather was nice, and I had fun sailing on the yacht. We even encountered a pod of dolphins in Kealakekua Bay. There was also plenty of time for snorkeling. On the way back, we had a bit of rain, but thanks to that, we were able to see a beautiful rainbow.

The staff only spoke English, but they were very friendly and went around offering drinks and cookies. I think it’s a sufficient tour unless you’re looking for meals or other extras.

Ocean Encounters Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Sunset & Moonlight Cruise from Kona

Amazing experience and great crew!

Reviewed by: Stacia

My husband and I went on the snorkel experience and it was the best! We saw about 15 manta rays, including one with a 12 foot wingspan, and probably close to 10 barrel rolls where they came within a few inches of us. Our crew worked hard to make sure we were comfortable and that we had a good time (even made us hot cocoa after we got out of the water). I can't say enough great things about Ocean Encounters- you might find a cheaper manta ray swim, but you won't find a better one.

A paradise of fish while snorkeling at a leisurely pace. じっくりシュノーケリングでお魚パラダイス

Reviewed by: すもこ

First of all, this tour starts with a meeting point, so it was an adventure for us from the beginning. We left Hilton Waikoloa a little over an hour before the meeting time and arrived safely after about 50 minutes, but the parking lot in front of Fair Wind was already full. We were directed to a parking area deep in the woods across the way (which was just right in front). It was very difficult to find... However, my mother had checked other people's blogs, so if you're worried, you might want to look there.

We took a large boat to Kealakekua Bay. It was a one-hour boat ride, but it wasn't too bumpy, and we were able to have breakfast, so it went by quickly. There is a second floor, but since meals are served on the first floor, I recommend staying on the first floor.

Once we arrived at the bay, we could snorkel freely. There were no Japanese staff, but they made sure to provide fins and floaties. The floaties, which looked like sumo wrestling mawashi, were quite amusing, but they allowed us to snorkel for a long time, making it very comfortable.

I don't think there were any explanations in English about the fish or where to find them, so you can just immerse yourself in snorkeling. Some people were jumping into the sea from the slide, while others finished snorkeling early to have lunch on the boat or enjoy the scenery; everyone was very relaxed.

On the way back, I was hoping to see dolphins, but I didn't find any. However, when I heard a loud noise and looked towards the back of the boat, there was a man struggling with a fishing line that had a reaction. Everyone cheered, and when a large barracuda came out, the atmosphere on the boat was electric.

This tour is recommended for those who want to enjoy their meals, snorkeling, and the scenery at a leisurely pace.

まずこのツアーは現地集合なのでそこから私たちにとっては冒険でした
集合時間の一時間ちょっと前にヒルトンワイコロアを出て、50分ほどで無事
到着しましたが、フェアウインドの前の駐車場はすでに埋まっていて、
対岸の(といってもすぐ目の前)方までぐるっとまわった林の中の駐車場を
案内されました。これを見つけるのはとても難しい・・・
でも他の人のブログで母がチェックしていたので心配な方はそちらを
そして、大型船でケアラケクア湾へ 一時間の船旅ですがそこまで揺れませんし、朝ご飯を食べられるのであっという間でした。
2階もありますが、食事が一階にありますので一階がおすすめ
湾につくと自由にシュノーケリング
日本人スタッフはいませんが、ヒレや浮き輪などちゃんと声をかけてくれます
相撲のまわしのような浮き輪がとても笑えますが、長い間シュノーケリング
出来るのでとても楽でした。
お魚の説明や、どこにいるよとかは特に英語でも説明はなかったと
思うので、ただただシュノーケリングに没頭できます
滑り台からジャンプして海に入ってる人や・早めにシュノーケリングを終えて
船内で昼食を食べてる人、景色を楽しんでる人それぞれで
とってもまったりしています。
帰る際には、イルカが見られるかもと思って探していましたが、見つからず、
大きな声がして船内の後方をみるとなんと、おじさんが反応のあった釣り糸と格闘中。みんなで応援して、大きなシーラが出てきたときは、船内は大盛り上がりでした。
ゆっくり、食事もシュノーケリングも景色も楽しみたい方にはおすすめのツアーです
