On the day, there were four of us, including my son. The guide provided instructions in English for the other couple and mixed in some Japanese for me.
Although we were a bit slow at times with the unfamiliar kayaking, they always kept an eye on us and waited. The waves were a bit high, so we couldn't jump from the rocks, but we were able to enter the cave as far as we could while ensuring safety.
They also made sure to allocate enough time for snorkeling, and everyone enjoyed it. It was clear that they really love interacting with Hawaii's nature and people. I definitely recommend this experience.
当日は私と息子を含めて4人。別のカップルと息子には英語で、私には日本語も交えてガイドして下さいました。
慣れないカヤックで途中遅れたりもありましたが、いつも目を配り待っていてくれたり。波が高めで岩からのジャンプは出来ませんでしたが、安全確保をしながら洞窟もギリギリまで入る事が出来ました。
シュノーケルも時間をしっかりとって下さり、みなさん楽しんでいました。ハワイの自然や人と関わる事がとても好きな様子が伝わって来ました。是非オススメします。
カヤックに慣れていなくても、優しく教えてくれて安心できると思います。

We had a fun time on our canoe adventure and snorkeling at a special area with just the 3 of us. We saw a lot of beautiful fish and our snorkel gear was great! Our guide Kai was very friendly and attentive to our safety on the canoe and in the water. It was a bit tough for us to get back into the canoe after snorkeling but he worked with us and we made it!! We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and it will be a very special memory for us all! Thank you Kai!

The sea had been rough due to the swells for the past three days. However, the kayak launch area was in a bay, allowing for smooth boarding and disembarking. The offshore conditions were calm enough to enjoy kayaking. Although we couldn't go far into the spot due to the waves, we were able to feel the power of nature up close. There were plenty of fish while snorkeling.

About 15 minutes ago, I took an Uber to the meeting point, and the guide was waiting for us. In Hawaii, I was able to catch an Uber even at 6 AM without any issues. I think it's a good idea to check the app a bit before you head out. After dropping off valuables and a change of clothes, I put my phone in the waterproof bag and set off.
We arrived at the kayak launch area right away. I wore flip-flops, but since it's not a beach, I think marine shoes would be better. We boarded the kayak from the rocky area. From there, we kayaked for about an hour and a half, entering a cave along the way. After that, we snorkeled for about an hour. We were able to see large sea urchins and various fish while circling around. Since there was quite a bit of time, it might be good to have an underwater camera to take your own pictures.
We kayaked back for an hour, and that concluded the tour. There’s a shower or a water tap where you can wash off just a few minutes' walk from the kayak launch area. You can change clothes in the nearby restroom. The day before, when I confirmed over the phone, the guide mentioned that they would take pictures, but unfortunately, the guide had to be replaced due to health issues, so I couldn't get any photos. However, I really enjoyed experiencing the Hawaiian sea.
15分くらい前にUberで集合場所へ行くと、ガイドの方が待ってくれていました。
ハワイ島のUberは、6時台でも普通に捕まりました。
出る前に、ちょっとアプリで確認しつつ出発すると良いと思います。
貴重品や着替えなどの荷物を預けて、借りた防水バックに携帯を入れて出発。
すぐにカヤック乗り場です。
ビーチサンダルで行きましたが、ビーチではないので、マリンシューズに方が良いと思います。
岩場からカヤックに乗り込みます。
そっから、1時間半程度カヤック、途中に洞窟に入ったりします。
そこから1時間程度のシュノーケリング。
ぐるぐる回って、大きなウニや色々な魚を鑑賞出来ました。
結構時間があるので、自分で撮れる水中カメラがあると良いかも知れません。
戻りでカヤック1時間で、ツアー終了です。
カヤック乗り場から見える、歩いて数分の所にある港にシャワー?と言うか、浴びれる水道があるので、そこで体を洗えます。
着替えは、その近くのトイレで行う感じです。
前日、電話で確認した際は、ガイドの方が写真を撮ってくれるとの事でしたが、体調不良でガイドの方が交代したようで、残念ながら写真は取って貰えず。

I paddled quite a distance in a sea kayak. On the way, I encountered a pod of dolphins twice. They came so close that I could hear their breathing.
The guide got out of the canoe and led us through the waves of the cave, guiding our canoe into the cove. It was a sight that is not often seen.
On the way back, I encountered the pod of dolphins again, which was very lucky.
Snorkeling was also a lot of fun.

I went to the location with my wife and son in a rental car. We parked on the street, but be careful of no-parking zones. Before 7:00, we were approached by our Japanese guide, Noni, who helped us complete the procedures and we started right away. After doing some warm-up exercises and learning how to paddle a sea kayak, we finally entered the sea to begin kayaking. Since it was the first time for all three of us, we were worried about whether we could paddle well and if our stamina would hold up, but Noni observed us and provided guidance and breaks as needed, so we managed to paddle safely. In the sea caves, the waves crashed and the roar from deep inside was impressive. Noni made sure to warn us if we got too close to dangerous areas, so we felt safe throughout the kayaking experience. At the snorkeling point, we were able to see various small fish. I wished I had studied the types of fish beforehand. The view of the Big Island from the sea was spectacular, and we were able to take many wonderful photos. Along the way, Noni also shared stories about the island's history and gourmet information, which made it really enjoyable! I highly recommend it!
妻と息子と三人でレンタカーで現地へ行きました。路駐しますが駐車禁止帯に注意。7:00前に日本人ガイドのノニさんに声をかけられて手続きを済ませさっそく開始。準備運動をしてシーカヤックの漕ぎ方を習った後、海に入っていよいよシーカヤック開始。三人とも初めてだったので上手く漕げるか、体力がもつか心配でしたが、ノニさんが我々の様子をみて随時、指導・休憩をしてくれたので無事漕ぎきりました。海中洞窟では波が打ち寄せてドパーンと奥からの咆哮が迫力でした。うっかり危険なエリア近づくとノニさんはちゃんと注意してくれて終始安心してシーカヤックができました。シュノーケルポイントでは様々な小魚を見ることができました。魚の種類を勉強していけば良かったと思いました。海から見るビッグアイランドも壮観で、すてきな写真もたくさん撮ってもらえました。途中では島の歴史やグルメ情報などの話もしていただいて凄く楽しめました!おすすめです!

We had a great time kayaking as a couple for the first time. Meeting at 7 AM was early for us coming from Waikoloa, but we were relieved to be easily found near the meeting point upon arrival. After receiving instructions on how to operate the kayak and doing some warm-up exercises from Noni, we quickly got into the kayaks and started our activities. The waves were high that day, so we couldn't enter the caves, and getting close was thrilling as we had to navigate the strong waves. We continued to enjoy kayaking, and at the end, we went snorkeling. The snorkeling was done after getting off the kayak. Due to the waves and our energy being spent on kayaking, we only snorkeled a little near the bay. It takes quite a bit of energy, so I was fine with about 30% snorkeling, but if you expect snorkeling to be the main activity, you might be disappointed. Depending on the weather, the plan can change, but for us, it was about 70% kayaking and 30% snorkeling. During a break from kayaking, we visited a hamburger place that Noni recommended, and it was delicious and impressive. Thanks to Noni's guidance, we had a wonderful time. By the way, there are no changing rooms or showers, so we changed in the car and went back to the hotel to shower.
初めてのカヤックで夫婦で楽しい時間を過ごしました。朝7時集合はワイコロアから移動の我々には朝早かったですが、到着したら集合場所付近ですぐ発見されて良かったです。ノニさんからカヤックの操作説明と準備運動をしてから、早速カヤックに乗り、しばらくカヤックでの活動です。当日は波が高く洞窟の中は入れず、近づくと波が高いので一進一退でスリル満点でした。その後もカヤックで楽しみ、最後にシュノーケリングします。シュノーケリングは乗っているカヤックから降りてします。当日は波があり、我々の体力もカヤックで消費していたので、湾の近くで少しだけシュノーケリングしました。体力を結構使うので、私はシュノーケリング3割くらいで良かったですが、シュノーケリングメインと思って、参加するとガッカリかもです。当日の天候により臨機応変になるとのことですが、我々はカヤック7割シュノーケリング3割くらいでした。カヤックの休憩中にノニさんに教えてもらったハンバーガー屋さんに後日、行ったら美味しくて感動しました。ノニさんのガイドのおかげで我々はとても楽しかったです。ちなみに、着替えもシャワーもないので、車の中で着替えてホテルに戻ってシャワーを浴びる感じです。

I participated with my daughter, and since we were in a tandem kayak (for two people), we enjoyed the tour while taking turns resting and sometimes pushing ourselves together! Our guide, Winfield, had an incredibly lucky day, as dolphins swam alongside our kayak, creating wonderful memories. This isn't an option; it's just pure luck, but it's the kind of experience that can happen on this tour.
They also provided plenty of time for snorkeling, which made us very satisfied.
The meeting point was a bit difficult to find, but our guide helped us locate it, and we were able to start without any issues!

This is the very first kayaking ocean tour my husband and I have ever been on. It definitely helps if you have experience in rowing a kayak. My husband had plenty experience in rowing a kayak in Canada even if it was only on rivers and lakes. We totally appreciated the kokua and patience from our lead guides, Winfield & Olivia. We were late joining our kayak tour. We appreciated Winfield's follow up call as we were running late due to tire pressure issues on our car rental and needed to check it out before we got to the keauhou Bay. When we showed up, we were pleasantly greeted right away by Olivia who stayed behind to ensure we had life jackets and that all our valuables were safely locked up in their truck. Olivia led us by kayak to the group and we were able to take a personal guided history and tour of the dragon's throat cave Winfield because the waters were starting to get a bit choppy. We later were anchored to our guides along with other kayakers to enjoy some snorkeling along the reef which was truly amazing. Somehow when our kayaks were anchored, I must've lost my balance getting back into our kayak because shortly after that, our kayak ended up tipping into the ocean along with my phone. Winfield was very kind to fish it out of the ocean and Olivia quickly poured regular bottled water on my my phone but u/f my phone is still dying a slow salt
corrosion death. The good news is that we were still able to obtain the data of the beautiful photos and videos of our adventure. We loved learning the history and sharing great camraderie with Winfield and Olivia who are expert kayakers and tour guides. They made us feel very safe and at ease the whole time. Wilfield also helped calm me down after we tipped and made sure I was ok after rescuing my phone. We also enjoyed snacks and drinks and when we got back to shore, Winfield cut us fresh pineapple and we enjoyed eating that. Thank you Winfield and Olivia for a fantastic adventure!

The kayak was stable, and I got used to paddling as I went along. The course goes from Keauhou Bay to the underwater cave in the next cove. We headed out far enough that the sea turned a deep blue. We made several stops along the way for breaks and hydration. The water was calm with no waves, and dolphins were jumping around. According to the guide, the baby dolphins were practicing their jumps. I felt lucky. Due to the wind, snorkeling was limited to about 20 minutes in Keauhou Bay, and I was a bit disappointed as I was expecting to see many more tropical fish. In Big Island, where Japanese is hardly spoken, it was a relief to have conversations in Japanese with our guide, Noni. I highly recommend participating in this experience.
カヤックは安定感があり漕ぐほどに慣れてきました。ケアホウ湾を出て次の入江にある海中洞窟までがコースです。海が濃い青に変わるくらい沖に出ます。途中何度か休憩と水分補給をしながら進みます。波もなく穏やかでイルカが飛び跳ねていました。ガイドによれば子イルカがジャンプの練習をしているとのこと。ラッキーでした。シュノーケリングは風のためケアホウ湾の中で20分ほどで、もっと沢山の南の海のお魚達を期待していたので少し残念でした。日本語が殆ど通じないビッグアイランドでガイドのノニさんと日本語での会話はそれだけでほっとしました。是非参加されることをお勧めします。

There were about 15 participants, and a guide was at the front and back. The gathering and dispersal felt casual, as we just came to the bay and then left, so I think it's good to come in swimsuits and leave in swimsuits. There were public restrooms nearby. If you have a certain level of English or some canoeing experience, you'll feel more comfortable participating. Also, the light snacks provided were small bags of snacks and about one can of juice. They lent out life jackets for children. The snorkeling masks were one size, so the kids used their own goggles. It was a beautiful bay with very clear blue water, and it was a wonderful half-day tour while feeling the nature of Hawaii. Thank you very much.

We participated as a family of six and had a private tour. It was everyone's first time, but our guide Noni provided careful instruction and guidance in Japanese. For those who are not proficient in English, I recommend the Japanese guide.
The outward journey was quite challenging due to the headwind, but Noni regularly checked in on everyone's condition to decide whether to turn back, and we managed to reach the cave. The return trip was quick.
Considering everyone's stamina, we decided to do the snorkeling in the bay. We had a very enjoyable and fulfilling time. Noni took a lot of photos for us!
Although it was an early morning course, the sunlight became increasingly intense, so a rash guard (preferably with long sleeves) and a hat are essential. Wearing gloves might make paddling easier. Shoes that can get wet are recommended, but going barefoot is also fine.
You can bring valuables in a waterproof bag, but I think just a phone and a tip would suffice. You will receive one bottle of water, but if needed, you might want to bring an extra bottle.
I'm not very good at swimming, so I felt safer snorkeling in the bay. They also lent me a kickboard, which made snorkeling enjoyable. Noni mentioned that the waves are calmer in the morning in Hawaii, and since the tour ends by 10:30, you might feel a bit tired, but you can make good use of the afternoon, so I recommend the early morning course.

早朝のコースでしたが、段々と日差しがキツくなるので、ラッシュガード(できれば下も)帽子は必須。軍手があったほうが漕ぎやすいかも。

私は泳ぎがあまり得意ではないので、湾でのシュノーケリングの方が安心でした。ビート板も貸してもらえたので、シュノーケリングも楽しくできました。
ハワイの海は早朝の方が波が穏やかだとノニさんが言ってましたし、10時半には終了するので、少し疲れていますが、午後からの時間も有効に使えるので、早朝コースがおすすめです。

It was my first time sea kayaking, but thanks to the staff's care, I had a great time. The snack during the break was freshly cut pineapple, which was perfect for recharging my energy on the way back. This time, I was tandem with my wife, but I think I can go solo next time. It depends on the weather, but I believe it's a fun activity.
初めてのシーカヤックでしたが、スタッフのケアのおかげて、とても楽しめました。

帰りのエネルギー充填バッチリでした
今回は、妻とタンデムでしたが、次回はシングルで行けそうです。
天候次第なところがあるとおもいますが、楽しいアクティビティだと思います。

We participated in a two-person kayak with six people in total. At first, it was very refreshing to paddle through the beautiful sea, but as we got out into the open water, there were some waves, and my two sons got seasick. We managed to reach the cave, but we decided to turn back halfway. One of the two instructors helped us by pulling back the kayak that had one of my sons who got sick and couldn't paddle anymore. Although we felt like we were causing trouble, they helped us with smiles and no complaints, which was really appreciated. Everyone, don't forget to take motion sickness medication when sea kayaking. I feel like we could have enjoyed it even more if there had been snorkeling, but it was fun even up to that point, and it left a good memory. Also, the activity I participated in was conducted entirely in English.
二人乗りのカヤック3つに6人が乗る形で参加しました。
最初は綺麗な海の中をカヤックで進んでいくのは非常に爽快でしたが、外海に出るに連れて少し波もあったため
息子2人が海で酔ってしまいました。
洞窟の前までは行けたんですが、途中で帰ることに。インストラクターの2人のうち1人が、1人が酔ったため疲れて進まなくなったカヤックを1つずつ引っ張って連れて帰ってくれました。
迷惑をかけてしまいましたが嫌な顔せず、笑顔で助けてくれて本当に助かりました。皆さん、シーカヤックでは酔い止めは忘れずに。
本当であればシュノーケリングもあってもっと楽しめたと気もしますが、途中まででも楽しかったし、十分記憶には残ったので良かったです。
あと、私が参加したアクティビティは完全英語でした。

Kayaking was my first experience, but with careful guidance, I happily arrived at the cave. Despite the rough weather, the sea was calm, making it enjoyable for beginners. I didn't encounter any whales or dolphins, but I would like to try again.
カヤックは初めての体験でしたが、丁寧に指導していただいて、洞窟まで楽しく到着しました。荒れた天候の合間でしたが海も穏やかで初心者も楽しめます。
鯨やイルカは会えませでしたが、またチャレンジしたいです。

Even if you're not familiar with kayaking, I think they teach you gently, which makes you feel at ease.
