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

First time kayaking, it was a fun time! 初めてカヤック 楽しい時間!

Reviewed by: ハワイ大好きな 泰さん

I visit the Big Island every year, but this was my first time kayaking. I challenged myself with my wife, who can't swim, and we were kindly taken care of by a Japanese guide. We had a great time kayaking. When we arrived at the snorkeling point, we jumped into the sea while still wearing our life jackets! Even my wife, who can't swim, was able to swim with many beautiful fish. It was wonderful!

毎年行くビッグアイランドですが、初めてのカヤック。泳げない妻とチャレンジ、日本語ガイドさんから親切に面倒見てもらい カヤックをおもいっきり楽しみました。シュノーケルポイントに到着すると、ライフジャケットを身に着けたまま海へ!泳げない妻でも沢山の綺麗な魚たちと一緒にスイミング よかったあ!

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

Motion sickness medication and a towel are essential! Let's wear our swimsuits under our clothes to the meeting place. 酔い止めとタオルは必須!集合場所には水着を洋服下に着て行こう

Reviewed by: ハワイいいね

Snorkeling in the crystal-clear, calm waters of Kealakekua Bay was enjoyable for the kids as well. We were lucky enough to encounter a pod of dolphins, and they were playing chase with our boat. It was adorable!

The second deck of the boat offers fantastic views, but it sways quite a bit more up there. During the one-hour ride to the snorkeling spot, even passengers who usually don’t get seasick were feeling pretty worn out.

Lunch was a simple barbecue on board. It had an American-style flavor, but if you embrace that, it can be enjoyable. However, I was surprised that the soft drinks were only carbonated and that what was labeled as tropical fruit juice was actually a tropical cocktail (an alcoholic drink).

This tour has a predominantly English-speaking, mostly white crowd, so if you're feeling a bit weary of tours filled with only Japanese people and want to experience being abroad, I recommend it. Additionally, the snorkeling spot has calm waves, making it a good option for first-time snorkelers and families with children aged preschool and up.

透明度抜群の穏やかなケアラケクア湾でシュノーケリングは子供も楽しめました。我々は運良くイルカの群れに遭遇し、我々が乗っている船とイルカの集団が追いかけっこしていました。可愛かった!
船の2階デッキは見晴らし抜群ですが、船は2階の方が相当揺れます。シュノーケリング場所までの片道1時間で、普段は全く船酔いしない同乗者さえグッタリする程でした。
昼食は船内で行われた簡単なバーベキュー。アメリカンな大味ですが、それも含め楽しんでしまえばこっちのもの。ただ、表記されていた事から想像していたのと実際には違ったのはソフトドリンクは炭酸だけである事、トロピカルフルーツジュースではなくトロピカルカクテル(アルコールドリンク)だった事です。
英語オンリーの白人多めのツアーですから日本人ばかりのツアーにちょっと辟易して、海外に来たぞという気分を味わいたい方にはオススメです。
あと、シュノーケル場所は波が穏やかなのでシュノーケリング初体験者や幼稚園児以上の年齢のお子様がいらっしゃるご家族にもいいかもしれません。

Great experience all around. We arrived, check in process was super efficient and we got onto the boat and in the water on time. The crew was well coordinated and found the optimal spot for us to view some mantas.
We saw two total, one passing by several times and very closely (belly almost touching our light board).

Nice experience!

Reviewed by: Hoomaikaiana

Lovely time on a light board looking at Mantas. We saw three of these beautiful creatures and many other local fish. The underside of the ocean at night was amazing.

It is a bit chilly and the water can be choppy.
The mantas were not abundant or very close to us on the night we were out because of an anticipated swell the next day.

Great fun though and I will try again in the future.

Even small children who can't put their faces in the water can enjoy it. 水に顔をつけられない小さい子も楽しめます

Reviewed by: おこりんぼママ

I participated with my 3-year-old and 6-year-old children. They provided a sheet with translations of the instructions in Japanese.

The ride to Kealakekua Bay was somewhat bumpy, and the kids sitting in the front seats on the first floor seemed a bit scared. However, once we arrived and saw a lot of fish in the calm sea, their fear seemed to disappear, and they actually enjoyed the return trip.

My 3-year-old usually dislikes getting water on his face, but when we borrowed a board to look underwater and showed him the fish points, he quietly enjoyed it. At first, he was scared to get on, but afterward, he wanted to ride again and had fun.

Breakfast and lunch were included (they served Costco muffins, which tasted just like the ones in Japan), and considering the prices in Hawaii, I think this is quite a good deal!

We visited various beaches on this trip, but my kids said this one was the most fun. Thank you to all the staff!

3歳と6歳の子供を連れて参加しました。注意事項などは日本語訳のシートを渡してくれます。
ケアラアクア湾に着くまではそれなりに揺れ、1階の前のシートに陣取った子供達は少し怖かった様ですが、現地について穏やかな海で沢山のお魚を見るとその恐怖も吹き飛んだのか帰りは寧ろ楽しんでいました。
3歳の子は水が顔にかかるのも嫌なくらいなのですが、水中が覗けるボードを借り、お魚ポイントを見せてあげると、黙って楽しんでいました。
最初乗るときは怖がってましたが、その後は自ら乗りたい!と楽しんでました。
朝食も昼食もついて(コストコのマフィンとかですが、日本のそれと変わらずの無難な味)ハワイの物価を考えるとこの値段はかなりお得だと思います!
今回の旅で色々なビーチに行きましたが、子供もここが1番楽しかったと言ってました。

Activities on Hawaii Island that even young children can enjoy! 幼児も楽しめるハワイ島のアクティビティ!

Reviewed by: Mgirl

I searched for activities that I could do with my 1 year and 11-month-old child on the Big Island of Hawaii and participated in one. Since we came all the way to the Big Island, I wanted to join activities that allow us to enjoy nature, but I thought there would be quite limited options for toddlers.

This snorkeling tour was enjoyable for both adults and toddlers! They provided rental snorkeling gear in adult sizes, as well as baby-sized safety vests and floaties, which you could choose between those with and without a seat.

By adjusting the playtime according to the water temperature and the baby's condition, we were able to have a great time. When we visited, the water temperature was a bit chilly, so we opted for the afternoon course with an hour and a half of snorkeling time, but we wrapped it up after about 30 minutes to accommodate the baby's condition. (The first 10 minutes of snorkeling time included a briefing on safety and a tutorial on how to use the snorkeling gear.)

During the remaining time, we relaxed in the sun while enjoying an all-you-can-eat snack and giving the baby some treats while admiring the beautiful scenery. My husband enjoyed snorkeling a bit longer and had fun on the diving slide.

We were able to fully enjoy snorkeling unique to the Big Island, seeing the clear water and many colorful fish! If you bring an underwater camera, the clear water allows you to capture adorable fish swarming around the coral reefs, which is a lot of fun.

The slide was quite high for someone like me who can't swim (you slide down from the second floor of the boat into the sea), but my husband seemed to enjoy it. It was hard to get bored, but if you do get tired of snorkeling, you can also enjoy the thrilling slide or diving, making the hour and a half fly by!

On the way back, in addition to snacks, there were all-you-can-eat cut oranges and pineapples, allowing us to recover the calories we burned swimming while enjoying the beautiful sea, making the cruise itself enjoyable. The baby was happy because he could eat oranges! They mentioned that you might see dolphins during the cruise, but unfortunately, we didn't see any during our time, though it was still plenty of fun.

Also, please note that Japanese is not spoken on-site, and communication is only in English. Moreover, there were no other Japanese people besides our family. However, even with our limited English, the staff responded with smiles and didn't show any displeasure, so I think even with middle school-level English, you can manage just fine. There are Japanese instruction sheets on board for safety briefings, so if you're worried about your English skills, you can feel comfortable participating. The safety instructions included areas where swimming is allowed, prohibitions against diving under the boat, touching the coral reefs, standing on the seabed including the coral reefs, and warnings about not touching sea urchins as they are very dangerous.

One service I appreciated was that there was sunscreen available on the boat for free. Since environmentally friendly sunscreen is necessary to protect the coral reefs, I was wondering if my own sunscreen would be okay, but they had proper sunscreen available that could be used for babies as well! It was mentioned in the instructions to apply it 30 minutes before entering the water.

The boat was a catamaran, which might have less sway, but it still rocked quite a bit, so I think it's better for those who are prone to seasickness to take motion sickness medication. It’s also wise to have bags and wipes for the baby. Since the cruise takes about an hour each way, it might be good to have a change of clothes for the baby, as they might get cold if they stay in wet swimsuits on the way back. We didn't bring any, and I wrapped the baby in a bath towel to keep him warm in the sun on the way back, so it was fine, but it might be better to have a change of clothes. By the way, the only place to change is the restro

1歳11ヶ月の幼児とハワイ島で参加出来るアクティビティを探して参加しました。
せっかくハワイ島に来たからには自然を満喫出来るアクティビティに参加したいですが、
幼児もとなるとなかなか少ないと思います。

こちらのシュノーケリングツアーは幼児も問題無く楽しめました!
大人サイズのシュノーケリング道具のレンタルはもちろん、ベビーサイズの安全ベスト(名前が分からない)や、浮き輪も股付き、股無しで選べて貸してくれます。

水温やベビーの体調を鑑みて、遊ぶ時間を調整すれば楽しく過ごせます。
我が家が遊びに行った時期は水温が少し冷たかったので午後のコースで1時間半のシュノーケリングタイムでしたが、ベビーの体調に合わせて30分位で切り上げました。
(シュノーケリングタイムの最初の10分位は注意事項の説明とシュノーケリングの使い方講座です)

残りの時間は素晴らしい景色を眺めながら、食べ放題のスナックを頂いたり、ベビーにおやつをあげたりしながらのんびり日向ぼっこ。
主人はもう少しシュノーケリングをしたり、飛び込みのすべり台をして楽しんでいました。


水の透明度も、カラフルなお魚達もたくさん見れてハワイ島ならではのシュノーケリングを満喫出来ました!
水中カメラを持って行くと水が綺麗なので、珊瑚礁に群がる可愛い魚たちを撮ることが出来て楽しいです。


すべり台は泳げない私には結構な高さで(船の二階から海に滑り降りる)出来ませんでしたが、主人は楽しかったようです。
なかなか飽きませんが、もしシュノーケリングに飽きたらスリリングなすべり台や飛び込みも出来て1時間半はあっという間です!

帰りの船内ではスナックの他にカットオレンジやパイナップルが食べ放題で、
泳いで消費したカロリーを回復しながら素敵な海を眺め、クルージング自体も楽しかったです。
ベビーもオレンジは食べれるのでご機嫌でした!
クルージング中にいるかに会えるかも?と書いていましたが、私達の時は見れず残念でしたがそれでも十分楽しかったです。


それと現地では日本語は通じず、英語のみで会話します。
しかも私達家族以外の日本人も居ませんでした。
それでもチェックインからつたない単語メインの英語でも、スタッフの方は嫌な顔せずニコニコと対応してくれるので中学生レベルの英語でもなんとかなります。
船内では注意事項の説明は日本語の説明書があるので英語力に不安がある場合も安心して遊べると思います。
注意事項は泳いで良い範囲、
海洋保護地区の為に船の下に潜る事、珊瑚礁に触ること、珊瑚礁を含め海底に立つことを禁止、ウニはとても危険だから触らない事等が書いていました。

サービスで嬉しかったのは、日焼け止めも船にあり無料で使えた事です。
珊瑚礁を白化から守るため環境配慮の日焼け止めが必要で自分が持っている日焼け止めでも大丈夫かな?と思っていたら、ちゃんと日焼け止めが用意してあり、ベビーにも使えました!
水に入る30分前には塗ること、と注意事項に書いていました。

船は双胴船で揺れも少ないのかも知れませんが、それでもだいぶ揺れるので酔いやすい方は酔い止め薬を飲んだ方が良いと思います。
ベビー用には袋と拭くものがあると無難です。
クルージングも片道1時間弱あるので、帰りに濡れた水着のままだとベビーが寒がるかも知れないので着替えもあった方が良いと思います。
我が家は持って行かず、ベビーをバスタオルでぐるぐる巻きにして日向ぼっこさせながら帰ったので大丈夫でしたが、着替えた方が良いかも知れませんね。
ちなみに着替える場所は船内にトイレしかありません。

ハワイ島で幼児も参加出来るアクティビティを探しているならオススメです。

First experience
The excitement was at its peak.
Zipping through the trees. The swinging suspension bridge, and when I looked back, there was an Aussie laughing playfully. A concerned Indian couple worried about their partner who was too scared to move forward. A kind American elderly couple. Even without understanding the language, the screams were understood.

It was fun.
I couldn't take photos myself, so I would like the instructor's photos. Please.

Reviewed by: 埼玉のオカメ

We moved to the meeting point by rental car. There was no parking, so we had to park on the street. We were the only Japanese people there, and there seemed to be many elderly white people. I had heard there were two snorkeling points, but there was only one at Captain Cook, which was a bit disappointing. The staff were energetic and cheerful, and since the explanations were only in English, I couldn't understand anything, but they were very kind and friendly, which made me feel completely at ease. I didn't have high expectations for the meal since it was on the boat (sorry), but it turned out to be very delicious. The hamburgers had unlimited toppings, so I piled on as much as I wanted without hesitation. There were drinks available, but they were just okay. On the way back, we encountered a family of whales, and they kindly stopped the boat so we could observe them closely.

レンタカーで集合場所まで移動。駐車場がないので路駐になりました。日本人は私達だけ。白人のお年寄りが多い印象でした。2か所と聞いていたシュノーケルポイントはキャプテンクック1か所だけで、少し物足りなかったです。スタッフさんは元気で明るく、説明は英語だけでしたから全く理解はできませんでしたがとても優しくフレンドリーで感じが良くて、不安になることは一つもありませんでした。食事は船上ということもあり期待をしていなかったのですが(ごめんなさい)、これがとても美味しかった。ハンバーガーは自分で好きなだけトッピングできたので遠慮なくたくさん乗せました。飲み物はありますがいまいち。帰りにクジラの家族に遭遇し、わざわざ船を止めてくれたのでゆっくり見学できました。

First Sea Kayaking Experience 初めてのシーカヤック

I had gone kayaking once on a lake, but it was my first time in the ocean, so I was a bit worried. However, with the excellent guidance from Kevin and Noni, I was able to paddle smoothly without veering off course, and getting back into the kayak from the ocean was also seamless. I was thrilled to successfully navigate through the underwater cave as well. While enjoying the leisurely kayaking and snorkeling, with explanations about the surrounding scenery, I didn't even end up with sore muscles. It was the best experience!

First Kayaking Experience 初めてのカヤック体験

Reviewed by: ERI

On the third day of my stay at Sheraton Kona Resort, I signed up for the morning kayak experience! The session was originally scheduled for 9 AM, but it was changed to 7 AM due to the wave conditions, so I walked a few minutes to the meeting point. It was just the two of us Japanese guests, and our guide Noni was very kind and thorough in his instructions, and off we went!

You can put your belongings in a waterproof bag that you can borrow, but I wouldn't recommend bringing too much. Paddling the canoe while basking in the morning sun is wonderful, but sunglasses and a hat are essential due to the strong sunlight.

Paddling a considerable distance uses a lot of energy, but the wide, beautiful ocean and the refreshing breeze of nature without any noise are very pleasant. Even those who can't swim can float around with a life jacket while snorkeling, and there are lots of cute black and yellow fish, which is very soothing.

I panicked for a moment when I looked up and couldn't see the canoe, so it's important to be careful not to get too absorbed (laughs). Along the way, Noni shared some pineapple and chocolate muffins with us. Food tastes even better when eaten on the water.

Finally, Noni had a wonderful system where he emailed us various photos he had taken during the tour. I highly recommend this tour!

シェラトンコナリゾートで滞在して3日目にカヤック体験午前の部に参加申し込みしました!

持ち物はお借りした防水バックに入れられますが、あまり多くは持ち込めないかと…。朝日を浴びながらカヌーを漕いで日差しが強いのでサングラスと帽子は必須。

シュノーケルもライフジャケットを着てるので泳げない人でもプカプカ浮きながら黒や黄色の可愛い魚が沢山いて、これまた癒されます。
顔を上げたときにカヌーが見当たらなくて一瞬焦り、夢中になりすぎるのも要注意(笑)
途中、ノニさんがパイナップルとチョコマフィンのお裾分け。海の上で食べるものは、より美味しく感じます。

Mike's guidance was excellent. I was very satisfied with the wild dolphins and snorkeling. By chance, we also had the boat to ourselves, which made for great memories. I want to go to the Big Island of Hawaii again.

マイクさんのガイド最高でした。野生のイルカ、シュノーケル大満足でした。たまたまボートも貸し切りになり、良い思い出になりました。またハワイ島行きたいです

コハラ地区 ジップライン&吊り橋渡り体験 滝つぼ遊び付きプランあり <英語インストラクター>

Good experience 良い体験

Reviewed by: bombon

We participated in the zip line experience without transportation. It was the first time for both a 66-year-old and a 51-year-old. The meeting place is easy to find, just off the main road, and the parking lot is spacious. We left all items that could fall, like rings, bracelets, and cameras, and moved to the course in a jeep. This was enjoyable in itself.

The first line was a short trial zip. It gradually got longer, and the last one was a couple's zip. I think it’s a well-thought-out course. The instructor takes photos (it would be nice if it were a bit cheaper). It was a refreshing experience that took us away from our daily lives.

参加したのは、送迎なしのジップラインのみ。
66歳と51歳の、初めての体験。
集合場所はメインの道路を曲がってすぐで分かりやすい。駐車場も広い。
指輪もブレスレットもカメラも、落としそうな物は全て預けて、ジープ(?)でコースに移動。これはこれで楽しい。
一本目は短いトライアル・ジップ。段々長くなり、最後はカップル・ジップ。良く考えられたコースだと思う。
インストラクターが写真を撮ってくれる(もう少し安いと良いのだけれどね)。
普段の生活から離れた、脳がスッキリする体験でした。

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

Family-friendly snorkeling 子連れシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: やまっこ

I participated with my 4.5-year-old child, and they provided us with kids' masks and boards with viewing windows, which allowed my daughter to enjoy herself.

There was a decent variety and number of fish, and although the visibility was okay, I appreciated that we weren't trying to catch fish with sausages. The slide and diving board required just the right amount of courage, which was great. The restrooms on the boat were also clean.

The speed of speaking in English was fast, but they provided important information on a paper written in Japanese, so I felt there were no issues at all. (My language skills are at a level where I can manage basic conversations in English.)

We received plenty of snacks and fruits, the timing was just right, and dolphins swam alongside us on the way back, so I think the affordable afternoon plan was a good choice.

4歳半の子どもと参加しましたが、キッズ用マスクや、覗き窓つきボードを貸していただき、娘も楽しむことができました。

そこそこの種類と数の魚、透明度でしたが、ソーセージで魚集めるようなこともしていなかったので、好感がもてました。
滑り台や飛び込み台は、ほどよい勇気が必要なレベルで良かったです。
船内のトイレも清潔でした。

英語を喋るスピードは早いですが、重要事項は日本語で書いた紙を渡してくれますので、全く問題ないと感じました。(私の語学力は、軽く英会話ができる程度です)

スナックやフルーツも沢山頂け、時間も適当、イルカも帰りに並走してくれたので、値段が安い午後プランで良かったかなと思います。

My family and I had a great morning! We kayaked, snorkeled, and cliff jumped! The guides were super encouraging, fun and knowledgeable. I only wish I had a water proof case for my phone because now I have no pictures of our awesome time! (They sell cases at the ABC stores)

ケアウホウ湾 シーカヤック&シュノーケリングツアー <英語ガイド/軽食付き>by オーシャンサファリ・カヤック

First experience with kayaking. カヤック初体験

Reviewed by: コウキ

It was our first experience as a couple approaching our sixties. I was a bit worried about everything being in English, but it was a great help that another participant, a Japanese person with good English skills, acted as an interpreter. We paddled quite a distance along the quay. Along the way, we encountered wild dolphins—what a lucky surprise! They were swimming right in front of us, and it was astonishing. At the turnaround point, we landed and went snorkeling. The yellow fish were beautiful, and there were plenty of sea urchins. The waves were a bit rough, making the kayaking thrilling, but during calm times, it seems like it would be a relaxing experience.

還暦手前の夫婦での初体験でした。
すべてが英語の案内でどうなることかと思いましたが、他の参加者に英語力のある日本人に通訳していただき大変助かりました。結構な距離を岸壁沿いにこいでいきました。途中で野生のイルカ達と遭遇 ラッキーでした。目の前にわんさかウジャウジャって感じでビックリ。折り返し地点で上陸して、シュノーケリング。黄色い魚がきれいでした。雲丹もいっぱいいました。波がややあったのでスリルありのカヤックでしたが、穏やかな時はのんびりと楽しめそうです。

We headed to a beautiful spot by boat. Since we departed in the afternoon, I was worried about the rain, but by the time we arrived at the spot, the rain had stopped and we were able to see many beautiful fish. There were also plenty of sea urchins. There was a slide, and everyone was having a great time. The snacks, juice, and fruit were very delicious, and my grandchild was very satisfied. I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

船で美しいポイントまで向かいます。午後出発だったので雨が降り心配でしたが、ポイントについたころには雨もやみ美しい魚をたくさん見ることができました。ウニもたくさん。滑り台もあり、皆さん楽しんでいました。軽食のスナック、ジュース、フルーツがとても美味しくて、孫も大満足。またチャンスがあれば参加したいです。

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

First time kayaking. 初めてカヤック

Reviewed by: N.Y

The weather on the day was mostly cloudy with some sunny intervals, which I think was just perfect for kayaking on the sea. It was my first time kayaking, but the boarding instructions were explained carefully in Japanese, and although the main guide was a foreigner, there was a Japanese support staff present, which made me feel safe and allowed me to enjoy the experience. The kayak was a two-person one, and the person sitting in the back becomes the leader, so they might have to paddle more often. It felt great to glide over the sea while feeling the wind. The snorkeling was also delightful, as I found the fish swimming around to be quite cute.

当日は晴れ間の多い曇りっぽいお天気で、海の上でのカヤックにはちょうど良いお天気だったように思います。はじめてのカヤックでしたが乗車の説明など日本語で丁寧に説明していただき、メインガイドの方は外国人の方でしたが、サポートに日本人の方がいらして下さったので安心して楽しむことができました。カヤックは二人乗りのもので後ろに乗る方がリーダーになるので漕ぐ回数が多いのかも?しれません。海の上をすべるようにカヤックが進む感じは風を感じながら気持ちよかったです。シュノーケリングもお魚が泳ぐ姿がかわいかったです。

ケアウホウ湾 シーカヤック&シュノーケリングツアー <英語ガイド/軽食付き>by オーシャンサファリ・カヤック

I had a great time kayaking and snorkeling. カヤックも十分漕げて、シュノーケリングも楽しく、満喫しました。

Reviewed by: リリー

I was a bit anxious about having a guide in English, but they demonstrated everything from how to paddle the kayak to how to get in and out. They communicated with gestures, so I hardly had to use English at all.

From the meeting point at the port, we paddled the kayak for about an hour until we reached the snorkeling point, where we had a light snack (like crackers). After enjoying snorkeling for about 40 minutes, we paddled back to the port. It was a lot of fun.

One challenge was finding the meeting place, but in the end, it was at the port in front of the public restroom (the place to launch the kayak).

英語でのガイドとのことで少し不安に思っていましたが、
カヤックの漕ぎ方から乗り降りの仕方まで、実践して見せてくれましたし、
身振り手振りでコミュニケーションを図ってもらいましたので、
特に、英語を使う場面はほとんどありませんでした。
集合場所の港から、そのままカヤックを1時間ぐらい漕いで、
シュノーケルポイントについたら軽食(クラッカーなど)後、
シュノーケルを40分程楽しんだのち、またカヤックを漕いで
港まで帰るというコースでしたが、十分、楽しめました。
その他としては集合場所がわからずに苦労しましたが、結局は、
公衆トイレの前の港(カヤックを下ろすところ)でした。

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

Kayaking requires quite a bit of physical strength! カヤックは体力がかなり必要です!

Reviewed by: あろはミッキー

I arrived early, but along the road, there were locals fishing, and I could only park one car at a distance. When we gathered near the sign at 6:40 AM, we were asked to sign the usual disclaimer stating that they do not guarantee anything and that we are responsible for ourselves.

After that, there was a brief explanation of kayaking, some stretching exercises, and the distribution of life jackets before we quickly entered the sea. There were five of us in total, but without any options, two-person kayaks were provided. Some participants were paired with a guide.

As someone in my 40s and this being my second kayaking experience, I found it challenging to make progress once we were out in the open sea due to the waves, and I kept getting left behind. If you're going on a tour that takes you into a cave, I think you need to be quite prepared for a significant distance to kayak.

In the morning, Mount Farahrai was clearly visible, and the scenery was absolutely stunning. After kayaking, we returned and were lent snorkeling sets, but it felt like we were just told to explore the bay on our own, which isn't suitable for beginners. There weren't many fish, and the water depth was about 5 meters, which was disappointing.

At night, manta rays come to the same spot. The explanation was given by a Japanese woman, but her condescending attitude left a less than favorable impression. The tour was short, ending by 8:30.

早めに到着しましたが、道路沿いは釣りをしている地元の方か、車が止められず離れた場所に一台ギリギリ駐車できました。
早朝6:40に看板の下付近に集合すると、おきまりの保証しません、自己責任ですのサインをさせられます。
その後簡単なカヤックの説明、体操、ライフジャケットの貸し出しがありすぐに海に入ります。全員で5名でしたが、希望もなく二人乗りのカヤックが用意されていました。ガイドとの同乗の方もいました。
40代でカヤック二回目ですが、海の沖にでると波もありなかなか進まないためどんどん置いていかれてしまいます。
洞窟の中まで行くツアーの場合はかなりの距離をカヤックで移動するので相当の覚悟が必要だと思います。
朝はファラライ山がくっきりとキレイに見えて景色は最高に良かったです。
カヤックが終わると一度もどりシュノーケルセットを貸し出してもらい勝手に湾内へどうぞという感じのため初心者には向きません。
魚もあまりおらず、水深も5mくらいはあるためがっかりでした。
夜は同じ場所にマンタが来ます。
日本人女性の説明でしたが、上から目線で印象今ひとつでした。8:30には終了の短いツアーでした。

  • 海からの景色は最高!
