ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック&シュノーケルツアー 海中洞窟探検プランあり <早朝・午前/日本語ガイド>by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

I saw dolphins! イルカ、いました!

Reviewed by: Tak

The sea was wonderfully blue. I was very satisfied to see dolphins.

I was a bit worried about kayaking with my 8-year-old child, but our guide, Noni, was very attentive, so we had no problems. It was a shame that the dolphins swam away during snorkeling, but I was more than satisfied with the many fish and the blue sea.

This was definitely a tour I would like to experience again.

素晴らしく青い海。
イルカにも会えて大満足です。

8歳の子連れでカヤックが少し心配でしたが、ガイドのノニさんが丁寧に対応してくれたため問題なく過ごせました。
スノーケリング時にイルカが離れてしまったのは残念でしたが、多くの魚と青い海で十分に満足できます。

是非、また体験したいツアーでした。

Capsizing... 転覆・・・

Reviewed by: マッキ-

We participated as a family of five. It was everyone's first experience with sea kayaking, but thanks to the excellent guidance from our Japanese-speaking instructor, we all had a great time! For snorkeling, you can choose between the open sea and the bay, but I recommend the bay for those who aren't confident in their stamina. My youngest and I were in the sea kayak together, and before we went into the water, while we were securing the paddles to the kayak, we "magnificently capsized!" I guess it was nice to experience capsizing too? I think it's a high-value activity!

家族5人で参加しました。
全員初体験のシ-カヤックでしたが、日本語ガイドの方の適格な指導により全員で楽しめました!
シュノ-ケリングは、沖と湾内を選択させてくださいますが体力に自信がない方は湾内をお薦め致します。
シ-カヤックには、私と末っ子で乗っていたのですが、海に下りる前にパドルを船体に固定する作業中「見事転覆!」転覆も体験出来てよかったかな?
コスパ高いアクティビティだと思います!!

Kona Manta Ray Snorkel & Night Dive Tour at Keauhou Bay - Sea Paradise

I would do it again!

Reviewed by: Ricardo L

It is a must! It is worth! I would do it again. At the beginning, I did not know what to expect, it was a friend recommendation and I thought it would be similar to swim with dolphins actitiviy I did before, but no, it is 10 times better! Getting into the water at night and be so close to these gentle giants was an experience that I will never forget. In less than 10 minutes in the water, we had mantas approaching us. They get very close to you thanks to the powerful lights attracting plâncton. I recommend you take your cell phone in a waterproof case and film. Just keep filming uninterruptly because you don’t know when the mantas will show up. Great experience!

Kohala Canopy Zipline Adventure on the Big Island - Aerial Sky Bridges and Optional Waterfall Swim

Terrific

Reviewed by: KL from NJ

We were lucky as the weather was cool and cloudy, but did not rain. Our guides were terrific. We had our "safety" talks and felt very comfortable with the safety harness and double clips used. Our party had ziplined before in Colorado and Costa Rica, so we had comparisons. Our guides were entertaining, knowledgeable and very patient. We did see wildlife - a hawk and of course, the mongoose. We did not want it to end.

Kona Manta Ray Snorkel & Night Dive Tour at Keauhou Bay - Sea Paradise

Out of this world experience

Reviewed by: KL from NJ

The crew were terrific. We had a long lengthy talk about "safety" and what to do and what not to do to keep us and the manta rays safe. Initially, the area looked crowded as there were a handful of boats out in the same area. We booked this excursion early on in our stay as Sea Paradise offers 100% guarantee that we will see manta rays. If we don't, we can come back for free. As we started, the manta rays were swimming underneath us immediately. We had an unusually fantastic night as we were told that normal nights, there were 4 manta rays. Our night, we had 6-8, I loose track. They were so close to us, tumbling and doing their ballets. We had at least 30 minutes of their bellies being 2 inches away from our faces. What an unforgettable night! Hot chocolate as we came out of the water to keep us warm. Lots of snacks on board.

Hula Kai Kona First Class Snorkel Tour - 2 Snorkeling Stops, Breakfast & Lunch

Kona Coast Snorkel Adventure

Reviewed by: angye

This adventure was awesome! Lots of fish at both areas but especially the second area. We were the only boat at the second place we went to and there were tons of fish! I wish I would've taken my own snorkel gear but I'll make sure I do next time. Their gear was ok though.
5 hours was a good amount of time and we didn't feel rushed at either stopping area.
The breakfast was good.
I don't eat meat and the veggie burger that they made was pretty bad. I have never had a veggie burger that I liked. I love having everything on a bun with cheese though and that was great.

- I went out without applying sunscreen, and my legs ended up getting badly sunburned. Be careful as you expose your legs to the sun while kayaking.

Kona Manta Ray Snorkel & Night Dive Tour at Keauhou Bay - Sea Paradise

Definitely a memorable experience.

Reviewed by: Diana T

We thoroughly enjoyed the Manta Ray excursion. The tour guide was great with telling us about the history of this tour and details about the behavior and nature of these Manta Rays. My daughter was most impressed. Although she’s 9yo and a good swimmer, she was still a little nervous about snorkeling at night and meeting these Manta Rays that could come inches to your face. However, the tour guide has made everyone felt safe and she was able to enjoy the magnificence of these gentle sea creatures. Highly recommended

やってみましょう!! Let's try!!

Reviewed by: じゅんちゃん

I was a bit anxious about my English, so I requested a consent form in advance, filled it out, and brought it with me. We were the only Japanese participants, and the guide spoke entirely in English, but I understood the instructions, and even those who are not good at English can manage if they enjoy the activities. I also got along well with the other participants. After the tour, there was a photo sale, like at Disneyland attractions, and if there's one thing I regret now, it's not buying those photos.

英語に不安があったので、事前に同意書を送ってもらい、記入して持参しました。日本人は私たちのみ、ガイドもオール英語でしたが、指示はわかりましたし、英語が苦手な方もアクティビティが好きならどうにかなります。一緒に参加した方たちとも仲良くなりましたよ。ツアー終了後はディズニーランドのアトラクションのように写真販売もあって、今、後悔していることがあるとすれば、その写真を買わなかったことです。

野生のマンタ シュノーケリングツアー <英語ガイド/軽食付き>

Mantas keep coming one after another! マンタが次から次へ来てくれる!

Reviewed by: のんのろ

I love the ocean, and I have had experiences swimming with turtles and dolphins while snorkeling in various places. Unfortunately, I can't dive because of my hearing issues. However, manta rays don't usually come close to the surface. I had given up on seeing them up close, but on this tour, they kept coming one after another! ♡

We surrounded the light with our snorkeling gear and observed them. It felt more like the manta rays were coming to eat the plankton gathered around the light rather than swimming alongside us. Still, they came so close that I had to dodge them! I could see right into their bellies.

There were probably 6 to 7 manta rays that kept circling around endlessly. I might have been lucky, but I really enjoyed it! You should definitely bring a GoPro. Also, I wasn't cold at all on the boat. However, since many Japanese people are sensitive to the cold, it might be a good idea to bring a towel or a sweatshirt just in case.

私は海が大好きで、いろいろなところでシュノーケリングをすることで亀やイルカと泳いだ経験はありました。耳が悪いので、ダイビングをすることができません。でも、マンタはなかなか水面までは来てくれません。なので、マンタをまじかで見ることは諦めていましたが、このツアーだと、次から次へと遊びに来てくれます♡
ライトの近くを囲んでシュノーケリルをつけて観察する感じで、一緒に泳ぐというよりは、マンタがライトに集まって来たプランクトンを食べに来てくれるという感じでした。それでも、マンタが自分でぶつかってくるほど近くに来てくれたので、こちらが避けないとならないほどでした。
マンタのお腹の中までよく見えます。
多分6-7枚のマンタがエンドレスで順繰り廻って来てくれる感じでした。運が良かったのかもしれないですが本当に楽しめました!
Go proは絶対持って行くべきです。
あと、船の上では私は全く寒くなかったです。
ただ、日本人は寒がりな人が多いので、タオルを呼びで1枚持って行く、もしくはトレーナーなどを持って行ってもいいのかもしれません。

Unforgettable and once-in-a-lifetime

Reviewed by: Brett

This was an unforgettable once-in-a-a-lifetime experience! Definitely recommend swimming with the manta rays. It will be one of the most majestic experiences of wildlife you will ever have. A note we were unaware of: it seems essentially all ventures to swim with the mantas leave from a similar dock area and set anchor at essentially the same spot in the water--which is just a few hundred yards out from the dock.
