The meeting place is quite difficult to find.
You need to be somewhat accustomed to driving.
There were quite a few people who seemed to be affluent.
集合場所はかなりわかりにくいです。

I participated alone in August. I was told to confirm by phone at 4 PM on the day of the event, so I called, but it seemed that it wasn't particularly necessary, which surprised me. It seems that it's not needed unless the weather is particularly dangerous.
After going to the office and completing the check-in, they lend you a wetsuit in the next room without saying anything. After that, you go to the place where the boat departs on your own. The directions are simple, but I ended up getting lost unexpectedly. In fact, there were people who got lost and couldn't make it in time, so I think those who lack confidence should allow themselves plenty of time to get there.
The entire process is in English, but there aren't any detailed instructions, so if you have the guts, you'll be fine. It's a valuable experience. By the way, there were participants who couldn't swim and children as well.
After getting in the water, your body gets quite cold, so a towel and something to wear over yourself are essential. Even in August, my teeth were chattering.
8月に1人で参加しました。
当日の4時に電話で確認をとのことだったので、電話してみましたが、特に必要じゃないようで、かえってビックリされました。特に天候が危ない感じとかじゃなければ必要なさそうです。
事務所に行って、受付を済ますと、何も言わなくても隣の部屋でウエットスーツを貸してくれます。その後、自分で船が出る場所まで行きます。道順は簡単なのですが、あっけなく迷いました。実際、道に迷って間に合わず参加できなかった人たちもいたので、自信が無い人は余裕をもって行ったほうがいいと思います。
全行程英語ですが、特に細かい指示もないので、度胸があれば大丈夫です。価値のある経験ができます。
ちなみに、泳げない人や子供の参加していました。
水につかった後はかなり体が冷えるのでタオルと羽織るものは欠かせません。8月でも歯がカタカタいいました。

I participated in the afternoon session, but I made a mistake with the meeting time and arrived a bit late, though they waited for me. The staff was kind.
The rafting exceeded my expectations in terms of speed, just as the reviews said. We bounced off the waves and then dropped suddenly, and my backside was getting hit repeatedly. Of course, I couldn't let go of the handrails.
After quite a distance, we were taken to the snorkeling spot, where we stayed for an hour. They also lent us noodle-shaped floaties. Without those, I, being in my forties, would have reached my physical limit. There were sea urchins scattered on the rocks, and I saw a lot of fish. It was quite deep just a little away from the shore, which was a bit scary. After returning home, I learned about the shark incident, so thinking back, I'm just glad I was safe.
Since the sun wasn't shining too much, my 8-year-old son got cold after about 15 minutes and got back on the boat, so I followed shortly after. That was a mistake... I tend to get seasick, and I completely got seasick on the boat that was anchored and swaying with the waves. They provided snacks, drinks, and cut fruits, and my son was munching away. I was struggling during the waiting time and felt like I was going to pass out (laughs).
On the way back, I was just thinking about how I couldn't wait to get back, but it seemed that the four boys, including my 8-year-old, were very satisfied.
As you can see, opinions within the family were quite divided, so it might be tough for those who are not fond of roller coasters, but I recommend it for those who love speed and find the beach a bit lacking.
午後の部参加でしたが、集合時間を間違え、少し遅れましたが待っててくれました。スタッフは親切です。
ラフティング、口コミ通り予想を超えるスピードでした。波に当たっては跳ね上がりそして急落下、お尻もドンドン打ち付けられます。もちろん手は絶対手すりを離せません。
まだかまだかと結構な距離を走り、シュノーケリングスポットに連れて来られて、そこで1時間滞在。
ヌードルという棒状の浮き輪も貸してくれます。これがないとアラフォーの私は体力的に限界。岩場にはウニもゴロゴロ、お魚もたくさん見れました。岸から少し離れただけでかなり深いので、少し怖かったな。
帰国後、サメの事件を知ったので、今考えると無事で何よりです。
太陽があまり照ってなかったので8歳の息子が15分程で寒がり、ボートに上がったので私も間も無く上がりました。
それがいけなかった。。
元々船酔いする私は、その停泊して波に揺られるボートに完全に酔ってしまいました。
スナック菓子や飲物、カットフルーツを出してくれて、息子はムシャムシャ食べてました。私はそれからの待ち時間が辛過ぎて、気を失いそうでした(笑)
帰りのボートも早く着かないかとばかり考えてましたが、私以外の8歳児含む男4人は大満足だったようです。
このように家族内でも評価が真っ二つなので、ジェットコースターが苦手な方には辛いかもしれませんが、スピード好きな方、ビーチでは物足りない方にはオススメです。

Rafting that feels like a roller coaster is absolutely exhilarating! It runs so fast, you wonder how far it will go.
We had plenty of snorkeling at two spots, Honauanu Bay and Kealakekua Bay. The warm water was comfortable, and the sea was deep yet endlessly clear and blue. When we went to a slightly shallower rocky area, we were surrounded by a huge school of fish—so satisfying!
Along the way, we heard stories about Captain Cook and learned that two-thirds of the Big Island is hidden underwater, making it the largest mountain in the world, and how tsunamis have shaped the land. There were also discussions about the climate and Kona coffee, with various guides sharing information.
On the way back, we sped along at full throttle! Just when I thought we were going to crash into a rock, we made a sharp turn—phew! Then, just as I thought we were going to hit something again, we suddenly slowed down and quietly entered a cave, where the sea was a mystical emerald green. The guide explained why the minerals make the water look blue, the geological layers, and how big waves lifted large rocks and placed them on the shore. He provided a lot of detailed explanations, but it was hard to follow because he spoke so quickly in English. Still, it was fun!
The staff was very kind. Even though I couldn't understand everything he said in fast English, he kept calling me by my first name, which made me feel comfortable. They also allowed us to store our bags, so I felt secure. I definitely want to go again!
ジェットコースターみたいなラフティングは爽快そのもの!どこまで行くのってくらい走る。
ホナウナウ湾とケアラケクア湾の2カ所でたっぷりシュノーケリング。温暖な水温で快適、深いけどどこまでも透明で蒼い海、少し浅めの岩場に行けば大群に囲まれ大~満足!
途中でキャプテンクックの話やハワイ島は海の下に2/3も隠れてて世界で一番大きな山だとか津波が来て削ったとか気候やらコナコーヒーの話を交えいろんなガイドをしてくれたよ。
帰りもめちゃくちゃ飛ばすね~全速力だぁ!あ~岩にぶつかる~~っと思ったら急旋回、ふぅう~ホっ。またまたぶつかる~~と思ったら急減速し静かに洞窟の中へ、そこは神秘的なエメラルドグリーンの海。鉱物の種類がなんでだから青く見えるんだとか地層とか、大波が来て大きな岩を持ち上げて岩場に置いたのがあれだとか、いろいろ詳しい解説してくれたけど早口の英語でチンプンカンプン、でも楽しいのが良いよね~~。
スタッフはとっても親切。早口の英語で何言ってんだかわかんなかったけど下の名前でずーっと呼んでくれて快適だった。荷物もカバン1個くらいなら必要以外は仕舞ってもらえるんで安心でした。またぜひ行きたいです!

I chose this tour because it was just a short walk from the Sheraton where we were staying. It was our first time sea kayaking with our two children, a middle schooler and an elementary schooler, but we were taught patiently, and the operation was simple, allowing us to have fun.
Paddling along the coastline of the endlessly blue sea was undeniably refreshing! The kids were also thrilled with snorkeling. I lacked the courage to jump from the big rock and gave up, but everyone else was jumping in one after another.
At one point, my wife unexpectedly got seasick, so we ate the pineapple snacks we had brought back, but it might have been even more special out on the water.
In any case, we were able to enjoy ourselves with clear instructions given in Japanese, which made us feel at ease. Thank you very much!
宿泊するシェラトンから歩いて直ぐの場所から出発とのことで、このツアーにしました。
中学生と小学生の子供2人を連れての初めてのシーカヤックでしたが、丁寧に教えてもらい、操作も簡単で楽しむことができました。
どこまでも青い海を湾岸沿いに進むのは文句なしに気持ちイイ!子供達もシュノーケリングをして大はしゃぎでした。大岩からの飛び込みは全く勇気がなく断念しましたが、皆どんどん飛び込んでいました。
途中で妻がまさかのカヤック酔いとなったので、おやつのパイナップルは戻って食べましたが、海のうえだとまた格別だったかも。
とにかく日本語で明確に指示してもらい安心して楽しめました。有難うございました!

Traveling by speedboat was refreshing. The snorkeling was amazing, with the water being very clear and transparent. I was so engrossed in watching the fish that I lost track of time. I was thrilled to encounter dolphins. It was adorable to see a mother and baby dolphin surfacing for air at the same time.
Seeing the vastness of the Big Island of Hawaii from the sea made me feel like I was in a foreign land.

I participated with my husband and our 9-year-old daughter. Since my husband speaks English, we decided on this affordable tour, but I think it’s fine even if you can’t speak difficult English, especially if you have snorkeling experience. However, we had to move to the port by ourselves from the tour reception desk.
My daughter, who gets motion sickness easily, took some anti-nausea medication beforehand, and thankfully, she didn’t get seasick. However, it was quite cold floating in the night sea (we participated in August). Even though she wore a long rash guard top and bottom, after floating for nearly 20 minutes and only seeing one manta ray in the distance, she started saying, “I’m cold; I want to get out!” While I was trying to calm her down, a group of five giant manta rays appeared! We forgot about the cold and were just captivated. It felt like we were floating in space. They swirled around us within reach. The staff were friendly and fun, and we had a wonderful experience unique to the Big Island of Hawaii.
夫と9歳の娘と3人で参加しました。夫が英語を話せるので、安いこちらのツアーに決めましたが、シュノーケル経験者の方なら特に難しい英語が話せなくても大丈夫だと思います。ただしツアー受付デスクからは自分達で港まで移動しなければいけません。
酔いやすい娘は、事前に酔い止めを飲ませまた効果か、船酔いはしませんでしたが、とにかく夜の海にずっと浮いてるために冷えます。(8月の参加で)上下ロングラッシュガードを着込んだにもかかわらず、20分近く浮いて、まだ1匹遠くにマンタを見ただけで、「寒くてもうあがりたい〜」と言い出す始末・・・。なんとかなだめていると、そこへ5匹の巨大マンタの群れが〜!!寒さも忘れてただただ見入ってしまいました。まるで宇宙に浮いてる感じです。クルクルと手の届くような位置で回ってくれました。スタッフも気さくで楽しくて、ハワイ島ならではのとてもいい経験が出来ました。

On the boat, they ask for your fin size and provide you with the appropriate ones. They also have snorkeling gear available. They lend you a type of life jacket that wraps around your waist (suitable for both children and adults), so you don’t need to bring your own goggles.
It takes about an hour to reach Cook's Tower by boat, and even though our family took motion sickness medication, we felt a bit queasy. The BBQ cheeseburgers were incredibly delicious, just as mentioned in other reviews! The breakfast muffins were tasty, reminiscent of Costco's.
This was my family's first time participating after visiting the Big Island six times, and we were more satisfied than with any other tour. The beauty of the ocean was amazing.
船の上で、フィンのサイズを聞いて、サイズにあったものを貸してくれます。シュノーケリング道具も。
浮き輪も腰に巻くタイプの(子供から大人まで)ライフジャケット(?)浮きを貸してくれるので、ゴーグルなどの持参も必要ないです。

My sister and I did the sea kayaking adventure our second day here, and we had a blast! It's about and hour out and an hour back, so be prepared to do some paddling, but well worth what's waiting for you at the end. Our guide showed us the sea caves, and let us take a dip in the most remote part of the world (think about it, no joke) and then took us to a small cove where we anchored to snorkel. Saw so many different fish, all different shapes and colors, and the water is crystal clear. After we had snacks on the lava rocks surrounding the cove and a few in the group tried their hand a cliff jumping (not for me, but very safe and looked like fun). HIGHLY recommend doing is excursion. One tip, bring water shoes! you can do it without but it would have been easier with. The guides, Angus and Dana, were awesome! Really fun and very knowledgeable.

The manta rays drifting in the night sea were enchanting, but it was very cold and the waves were quite high. The snorkeling lasted about an hour, which was pretty exhausting. I had no energy at all due to the cold and seasickness. It was scary to try to return to the boat on my own after getting separated from the group in the night sea, so I recommend being in good health before participating.

We were the only Japanese participants, and the tour was entirely in English. However, they explained everything slowly and clearly, which was very kind of them. I imagined we would only kayak a little and do some snorkeling, but we actually kayaked quite a bit and went far. It's not really recommended for those who lack stamina. But for active people like us, it was the perfect tour! It was so much fun!! We crossed beautiful seas and went right up to the cave, which was thrilling! For those who are brave, they also take you to a spot where you can jump from a 10-meter cliff, which was incredibly refreshing!

I went kayaking with my mother, sister, and husband. It was my first time kayaking, but Kevin and Noni taught us patiently, and we were able to paddle happily. The snacks and pineapple during the break were also very delicious, making it a wonderful experience. When we got back, even though I applied sunscreen, my skin turned really red. I felt the intense Hawaiian sun even for just a few hours. Our advice is that you should definitely bring a shirt or jacket that covers your whole body. Otherwise, your skin can get close to a sunburn. I think it would be even more considerate if King Kayak included such advice on their website, which would improve their ratings. I would love to participate again when I visit the Big Island. Thank you very much.

The boat offers an incredibly fast roller coaster experience. You can enjoy the lava from the outside of Hawaii Island. The snorkeling was exceptionally beautiful. The fish playing in the protected coral reefs were truly colorful and there were many different species. They took plenty of time, and it was very healing.
The cave exploration was during the day, so we couldn't go inside due to high tide, but we were able to enjoy the view. We encountered wild dolphins. All the explanations were in English. The meeting place was hard to find, and it felt like searching for the SeaQuest vehicle at the port.

On our honeymoon, we participated in this tour on our first day in Hawaii Island. We arrived at the location, rubbing our sleepy eyes since it was early morning. The moment we got there, we were amazed by the stunning blue ocean that made us forget our sleepiness!
We were greeted by a lovely couple who were our guides. Before we set off, they gave us a clear briefing, and then we headed out into the vast Pacific Ocean! It was a private ocean just for us and the guides.
They mentioned that we might be lucky enough to see dolphins, but unfortunately, we didn't encounter any this time, which was disappointing... However, we were taken to a hidden snorkeling spot where we enjoyed the coral reefs and tropical fish to our heart's content.
Overall, we had a fulfilling time, and it helped us get some exercise, making it a win-win tour!

I experienced a two-hour course starting at 2 PM. The first hour was kayaking, followed by 30 minutes of snorkeling and 30 minutes of paddleboarding. Kayaking requires a lot of strength and can be surprisingly tiring, so I was quite satisfied with just one hour. Once you head out to sea, it can get quite bumpy, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you're not confident. Since it was just the two of us that day, we were able to go at a leisurely pace, which was very enjoyable. I think it's a great course that allows you to experience a variety of activities in just two hours.
午後14時からの2時間コースを体験しました。初めの1時間はカヤック、そのあと30分シュノ―ケリング、30分パドルボードという感じでした。カヤックは力が必要で意外と疲れるので1時間で十分満足でした。沖に出ると結構揺れるので自信の無い方は酔い止めを飲むことをオススメします。この日は自分たち二人だけだったので、のんびりペースで出来とても楽しかったです。
いろいろ体験出来て2時間のちょうど良いコースだと思います。

It was a tour with very few Japanese people, but I was extremely satisfied with the wonderful service from all the staff. The hospitality of the staff, who were always smiling, was the best!! I wonder if it's the captain's personality that makes the staff's service so outstanding...
日本人がとても少ないツアーですが、スタッフ全員の素晴らしい対応に大満足しました。
笑顔の絶えないスタッフのホスピタリティは最高です!!
船長さんの人柄でしょうかね?! スタッフの対応が素晴らしいのは。。

We visited with our family of three (10-year-old boy) on March 27, 2013. The water was very clear, and we were able to see many tropical fish. However, since the water temperature wasn't very high, it was too cold for long snorkeling sessions. But we had a great time with activities like the slide and jumping from the Fair Wind boat, which were fun for the kids. Additionally, since breakfast and lunch were included, we were able to make good use of our time before and after the tour, which was very nice.
2013/3/27に家族3人(10歳/男)で行ってきました。
水の透明度も高く、熱帯魚を沢山見ることができました。
ただし、水温があまり高くないため、寒くて長時間のシュノーケンリングは無理でしたが、滑り台や、フェアウィンド号からのジャンプなど、子供にとっては楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
また、朝食、昼食付きだったので、ツアー前後の時間を有効に使えて、とても良かったです。

Unfortunately, the weather was bad, and we couldn't go ashore to have a snack, but the two guides were very kind, and we had a great time. I participated with a 12-year-old boy. It was my first time snorkeling, but they explained how to do it and kept an eye on us while we were playing, which made me feel safe. I would love to participate again!
あいにく天気が悪く、上陸しておやつを食べることはできませんでしたが、ガイドのお二人が、とても親切で気持ちよく遊ぶことができました。12歳の男の子と一緒に参加しました。初めてシュノーケリングをしましたが、やり方を説明してくださったし、遊んでいる間も見守ってくださり、安心感がありました。また参加したいです!

In February 2012, I was deeply impressed, and on February 14, 2013, I came back again. It was me, my 89-year-old grandmother, my 67-year-old self, my 65-year-old wife, and my 60-year-old brother-in-law who is retiring this February. We had a wonderful time.
This year, just like last year, we stayed for two nights in Hilo, three nights in a condominium in Waikoloa, and three nights in Waikiki. Unusually, I fell ill this time and just recovered yesterday (February 13).
We were able to see whales again, and I was particularly moved by the dolphins' welcoming behavior. When the boat arrives near the snorkeling spot, a large number of dolphins come to greet us and support the boat until it stops. They even see us off partway on the way back (it’s unbelievable).
We enjoyed delicious breakfasts and lunches, saw beautiful corals and fish, and had a great time with friendly foreigners. This time, we were the only Japanese family, but the foreign tourists seemed to be having a great time, which made it very comfortable for us.
The water was cold, so my wife said, "Next time, I want to come in spring or summer." I promised to include some photos this time, but they are all taken from the video (Sony). Speaking of videos, the staff here have professional video skills. They used wonderful Sony equipment. They even film underwater, which makes for great memories.
Last time, I bought a video (DVD) and enjoyed it, so this time I had one sent for my brother-in-law. This tour is highly recommended as it can be enjoyed by everyone from babies to the elderly.
2012年2月に体験感激し、2013年2月14日、また来てしまいました。
89歳のお婆ちゃん、67歳の私、65歳の妻、そして今年2月定年の
義弟60歳の4人ですが楽しい、楽しい。
今年も昨年と同じ日程で、ヒロに2泊、ワイコロアのコンドミニアムに3泊、ワイキキで3泊です。今回私が珍しく体調を崩してしまい、昨日(2月13日)やっと回復したばかり。
今回も【鯨】も見えたし、特に【イルカ】の歓迎振りには感動ずくめです。
シュノーケルスポット近くに船が来ると、大勢で出迎えに寄って来て舟が止まるまでサポートしてくれます。
帰りも途中まで、お見送りです。(信じられない程)
美味しい、朝食と昼食を食べ、綺麗なサンゴと魚を見てフレンドリーな外国人?と楽しんで最高!!
今回、日本人は我々ファミリーだけでしたが、外国人?観光客は皆、思い切り楽しみに来ている様子で一緒にいてとても気が楽です。
水は冷たかったので妻は『今度は、春か夏に来たい』と言っています。
前回お約束の、写真何枚か入れますが、全部ビデオ(SONY)から写真にしたものです。
ビデオと言えばここのスタッフのビデオ技術はプロだ。
機材はSONYの素晴らしいのを使っていた。
海中でも撮影してくれるので記念になります。
前回もビデオ(DVD)を買って楽しんだので今回も、義弟のために1本送ってもらった。
このツアーは赤ちゃん~年配者まで充分に楽しめてお勧めです。

My husband and I went on this trip as a wedding present from my brother on our honeymoon and we had a blast! It was great to be able to be in a kayak together. The places we saw, and the stories we were told were awesome. There was even a surprise cliff jump! It's a great way to see a beautiful side to the Big Island!
