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 think it's just right for easily experiencing the sea and nature of the Big Island of Hawaii. 手軽にハワイ島の海と自然を感じるには程良いと思います

Reviewed by: anke1969

Sea kayaking typically accommodates two people per kayak. Since you paddle about 4 miles at a decent speed, I think less powerful individuals, like women, might get quite tired.

The cliff jump from a height of 10 meters (optional) was an unexpected experience, but the other activities like exploring the caves (just a little way into the entrance) and snorkeling (only for 10 minutes, close to shore and not particularly rich in fish) felt somewhat lackluster.

It was disappointing that we couldn't take any photos because we were told not to bring anything that could get wet, including smartphones, which were collected in a storage box. I think it would have been nice if the guide could have taken some photos for us.

シーカヤックは基本一艇に二人で乗ります。それなりのスピードでトータル4マイルほど漕ぐので非力な女性などはそれなりに疲れると思います。
10ｍの高さからのクリフジャンプ(希望者のみ)は予想外の体験でしたがその他の洞窟(入り口付近にちょっと入るだけ)やシュノーケリング(10分間のみ、岸からも近く特に魚影が濃い訳でもなくどこでも体験出来る内容)は中途半端な感じはしました。
濡れて困るものは一切持って行くなという事でスマホなども保管箱に回収されてしまったので何も写真が撮れなかったのが残念です。であればせめてガイドが写真を撮ってくれても良いと思います。

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

Everyone has fun! みんなで楽しい！

Reviewed by: momojun

As the reviews mentioned, everything was in English, but it's a tour where you hardly need to converse, so I think even those who are not confident can participate. I mentioned that I was a beginner, but we got into the kayak and suddenly paddled out to sea. Surprisingly, it was quite stable, and there was no risk of capsizing in the ocean. The sea cave was a bit different from what I imagined, but paddling out into the vast ocean was a fun experience. After snorkeling, the guide passed us pineapples, snacks, and drinks via the kayak. It was fun to connect the kayaks with a rope and pass the bag around. On the way back, we ended up drifting away from the group, and the guide tied a rope to my kayak and pulled me back. I applied sunscreen, but since the weather was nice, I recommend bringing it on the kayak and reapplying it several times.

口コミ通りすべて英語でしたが、ほぼ会話の必要のないツアーですので
自信のない方も参加可能かと思います。
初心者と伝えましたが、とりあえずカヤックに乗り込みいきなり海に漕ぎ出しました。
意外と安定感があり海でも転覆するようなことはありません。
シーケーブは想像とちょっと違いましたが、とにかく大海原へのカヤック漕ぎは楽しい経験となりました。
シュノーケリングの後は、ガイドさんがパイナップルやスナック、ドリンクをカヤックつてで渡してくれます。カヤックをロープでつないでみんなで袋を回していく感じで楽しいです。
戻る時には群れからどんどん離れてしまい、ガイドさんのカヤックにロープにつないでひっぱってくれました。
日焼け止めを塗ってましたが、天気がよくカヤックに持ち込み何度か塗りなおすことをお勧めします。

First kayaking experience♪ 初カヤック体験♪

Reviewed by: Nonnko

I made a reservation while I was in Japan, but since I had planned to participate alone in the early morning, the reservation couldn't be confirmed unless there were at least two people. So, I gave up on the early morning option and changed to a lunchtime slot, which was immediately confirmed.
(My husband was hesitant since he isn't very good at swimming) (laughs)
It took about 20 minutes by car from the Kamehameha Hotel where we were staying.
The guide who was waiting for us spoke Japanese fluently, which was a relief for my husband and me since we don't speak much English.
First, we received a lecture on how to ride a sea kayak on land, and then we boarded!
They provided solid support while we got in, and once we started paddling, one of the guides in a single kayak went ahead and checked for safety, so we felt very secure.
As we paddled hard, we realized we had made it out to the open sea, and taking breaks on the kayak was very easy.
There was a bottle of mineral water for each of us, which helped us stay hydrated under the shining sun.
Even though it was November, being out on the open sea with no shade means sunscreen and hats are essential. I wore a hat and a parka, so my shoulders and face were fine, but my lower legs, which I thought I had applied sunscreen on, turned a bit red and got sunburned (sweat). Even in November, don't underestimate the sun on the Big Island! (^◇^;)

After enjoying kayaking for a while, we returned to the starting point to enjoy snorkeling.
Originally, we could have gotten off the kayak and snorkeled further out, but since my husband doesn't swim well, we returned to the departure dock and snorkeled in the bay.
My husband stayed in his life jacket, but the guide quickly noticed his anxiety and lent him a kickboard, which was very thoughtful and made us happy.
I grew up by the sea, so snorkeling is second nature to me. I was really thrilled to be able to take off my life jacket and dive freely!
Actually, during a previous snorkeling tour in Okinawa, I was told not to take off the life jacket, so I was very dissatisfied as I could only put my face in the water.
Being able to dive to the bottom of the bay and swim with the fish was truly enjoyable!
However, I had bought a waterproof case for my smartphone to take pictures of the fish while diving, but for some reason, I couldn't take good photos, which was disappointing. The guide ended up sending me a ton of photos taken underwater!
The photos I attached were all taken by the guide's camera, so even those without a camera can have wonderful memories captured and sent to them!

I was told that the morning tour encountered a pod of dolphins, but I'll save that for next time (laughs).
I don't know if I'll be able to go back to the Big Island (laughs), but I truly had a wonderful time. Thank you very much!

日本に居る時に予約したのですが　早朝に私一人で参加という形態にしていたところ、2名以上からでなければ予約が成立しなかったので　早朝は諦めて主人も巻き込んでお昼の便に変更したところ　即！予約確定しました。
（主人は　あまり泳ぎが得意ではないので二の足を踏んでいたんです）(笑)
泊まっていたカメハメハホテルからは車で20分程度で着きました。
待っていてくださったガイドさんは　とても日本語が流暢で　あまり英語が喋れない私たち夫婦はホッとしました。
まずは　陸上でシーカヤックの乗り方をレクチャーして頂き、いざ！！乗船♪
乗り込む時もしっかりサポートしてくださり　漕ぎ出してからはガイドさんの一人乗りカヤックが　前になり横になって安全を確認してくださいますのでとても安心して乗っていることが出来ました。
一生懸命漕いでるうちに　気が付いたら沖の方まで出ることが出来、カヤックの上での休憩の仕方もとっても楽でした。
ミネラルウォーターも一人一本用意があって　燦燦と輝く太陽の元でのどを潤すことが出来ました。
11月とはいえ　遮るものがない海の上ですから日焼け止めクリームや帽子などは必須です。帽子とパーカーを着てたので肩と顔は大丈夫でしたが　日焼け止めを塗ったはずの膝から下は　ちょっと赤くなって日焼けしちゃいました（汗）11月とはいえハワイ島の太陽を侮るなかれ！！でした（^◇^;）

暫くカヤックを楽しんだ後、出発した場所まで戻ってシュノーケリングを楽しみました。
本来なら　沖の方でカヤックから降りてシュノーケリングも出来るということだったのですが　あまり泳げない主人のために出発した船着き場の方に戻って湾の中でのシュノーケリングとなったわけです。
っで、主人はライフジャケットのままでしたが　それでも不安だったのをガイドさんがすぐに気が付いてビート板を貸してくださって　その心遣いがとても嬉しかったです。
私は　海育ちなのでシュノーケリングはお手の物です。フィンを付け、ライフジャケットを脱ぎ捨てて　好きなように潜らせて貰えたのが本当に嬉しかった！！
実は以前、沖縄でシュノーケリングのツアーに行った時は　ライフジャケットは脱がないようにと言われていたので　潜るというよりも顔を付けるだけでとても不満だったのです。
思う存分　湾の中で海の底まで潜って魚たちと泳げたのは本当に楽しかったです♪
ただ、潜って魚の撮影をするつもりで　スマホの防水ケースを購入して持って行ったのですが　何故かうまく撮影出来ずにガッカリしていたら　ガイドさんが海の中の写真まで大量に送って下さいました！
貼らせていただいた写真は、全てガイドさんのカメラで撮影して送って下さったものですので　カメラをお持ちではない人も素敵な思い出をガイドさんが撮って送って下さいますよ♪

朝のツアーではイルカの群れと出会えたよって教えていただきましたが　まぁそれは次回までのお預けとしておきます(笑)
またハワイ島に行けるかどうかは判りませんが(笑)
本当に気持ちの良い時間を過ごさせていただきました。ありがとうございました！

The dolphins appeared right in front of me, and it was so moving! イルカたちが目の前に現れ，とっても感動しました！

Reviewed by: kokiyuki

I participated on January 2, 2019. I was really worried about what would happen if we capsized, but that never happened until the end (we participated as a 44-year-old father, 42-year-old mother, 14-year-old eldest son, and 12-year-old second son). Along the way, we were able to see dolphins up close. Our guide, Noni, spoke perfect Japanese, which made it easy for my middle school children to participate comfortably.

However, there was one point. I thought it might be better to have gloves for paddling, as it would prevent pain at the base of both thumbs. (My second-year middle school child said their thumb was hurting from the pressure.) I think it's best to wear swimsuits in advance and keep personal belongings to a minimum (water is provided during the tour, and there’s no time to apply sunscreen. If you have already settled payments with a credit card in advance, a tip for the guide should be sufficient).

２０１９／１／２に参加しました。
転覆したらどうしようって，本当に心配したのですが，
そんなことは最後までありませんでした（４４歳父，４２歳母，１４歳長男，１２歳二男で参加。）。
途中，イルカを間近で見ることもできました。
ガイドのノニさん，完璧な日本語で，中学生の子どもたちも，安心して参加できました。
ただ，一点だけ。パドルをこぐのに，それぞれ軍手があった方が，両手の親指の付け根が痛くならなくて済むのではないかなーと思いました。
（中２の子どもが，親指の付け根が当たって痛い痛い，と言っていましたので。）
水着は予め着用，手荷物は最小限（水は，ツアーについてますし，日焼け止めは，塗るヒマもありません。お金は，事前にクレジットカードで清算しているのであれば，ガイドさんのチップくらいで大丈夫。）にして，参加するのがよいと思います。

Sea kayaking and snorkeling シーカヤックとシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: hashnao

After paddling for about 30 minutes by sea kayak to the destination's shallow area, we entered the sea directly from the kayak to go snorkeling. The underwater visibility is very clear, and there are a decent variety and quantity of fish, so those who want to enjoy both kayaking and snorkeling should be satisfied. By the way, snorkeling is optional, and about 20% of participants did not go snorkeling. Since we paddle the kayak both ways, we don't progress while listening to the guide's explanations, so if you want to hear the guide's insights, it might be a good idea to actively engage in conversation.

The sea cave is not a long cave that extends for dozens of meters; it's about 3 to 5 meters in total length. When you enter the cave with the kayak, you get swept away more quickly by the waves when they return, so it's more about enjoying that experience. There is also a point where you can jump into the sea from a cliff about 5 meters high, so you can optionally jump from the cliff into the sea.

Before getting on the kayak, there is a briefing where they explain how to paddle. The explanation is all in English, but if you have experience paddling a boat, you should be able to understand the basic instructions in English. Additionally, there was one guide who could explain using very simple Japanese words necessary for kayaking (like left, right, stop, etc.).

Since everyone participating this time had kayaking experience, the pace of paddling was quite fast, but I believe the guide adjusts the pace based on the participants' skills and how many times they have kayaked before. Especially for those from Western countries, they tend to have good stamina, so if you're not confident in your physical strength, I recommend mentioning that during the briefing. During the briefing, you will be asked if you need a life jacket for kayaking. Since you will also use a life jacket while snorkeling, it's best to communicate your need for one during the briefing.

シーカヤックで片道30分ほど目的地の浅瀬に向かった後、海上で直接カヤックから海に入って、シュノーケリングをします。海中の透明度は非常にクリアで、魚の種類と量もそれなりにいるので、カヤックとシュノーケリングを同時に楽しみたい方は満足できるはずです。ちなみにシュノーケリングは任意で、参加した方の2割はシュノーケリングをしていませんでした。行きと帰りはカヤックを漕ぐので、ガイドの説明を横で聞きながら進むというわけではなく、ガイドから説明を聞きたい場合は積極的に話しかけたほうがいいかもしれません。海中洞窟（シーケーブ）は数十メートルも続くような洞窟ではなく、全長3~5m程度で、そこにカヤックで入ると波が戻る際に波の力でより早く流されるので、それを楽しむ程度です。また高さ5m程度の崖から海に飛び込むポイントもあるので、任意で崖から海に飛び込むことができます。
カヤックに乗る前にブリーフィングがありカヤックの漕ぎ方について説明があります。説明は全て英語ですが、ボートを漕いだことがある方なら基本的な説明は英語でも理解できると思います。また、カヤックの動作に必要なごくごく簡単な日本語の単語(左右、止まるなど)で説明することができるガイドが1人いました。
今回参加した全員がカヤックの経験者だったため、カヤックを漕ぐペースはかなり早めでしたが、ガイドが参加者のスキルやカヤックに乗ったことがある回数によってペースを合わせると思います。特に欧米の方は体力があるので、体力に自信がない方は、ブリーフィングの際にその旨を伝える事をお勧めします。ブリーフィングでカヤックに乗る際、ライフジャケットが必要か聞かれます。シュノーケリングをする際もライフジャケットを利用するので、シュノーケリングでライフジャケットが必要な方はブリーフィングの際に伝えた方がよいと思います。

I participated in the morning session. Although I had experience kayaking on rivers, this was my first time sea kayaking, but there was a thorough briefing before we entered the ocean. As soon as we got into the water, we encountered a pod of dolphins. It was a very lucky start to our trip. Along the way, some of the children got seasick, but one of the two guides accompanied us back to the bay, and after a short rest, we were able to enjoy snorkeling safely in the bay. They took many photos and sent them to us via email, which made for wonderful memories.

The proximity to the ocean is amazing! 海が近くて最高！

Reviewed by: ゴンゴン

Since it was my first time kayaking, I thought it would be nice to have a Japanese guide, so I signed up. Due to a cancellation in the group, I ended up having a one-on-one session with the guide, which turned out to be a lucky "VIP" experience for the day.

At first, I hurriedly paddled with my arms, but the guide advised me each time, saying, "It's okay to go slowly." I was able to feel the closeness of the sea, and the swaying of the waves and the view from the ocean felt completely different from what I had experienced on ships or boats before. I think I could enjoy the grandeur and openness of the sea even more. This time I was in a two-person kayak with the guide, but I want to challenge myself to a single kayak next time.

I also got to snorkel as much as I wanted, and I can't forget how delicious the pineapple we had while kayaking was.

If I were to suggest one improvement, it would be that the sign at the meeting point is small and hard to see for first-timers. Additionally, it was mentioned that the staff would be wearing yellow T-shirts, but in reality, it was another tour company wearing them, which caused me to mistakenly go there and almost be late.

初めてのシーカヤックだったので、日本語ガイドさんの説明がいいなぁ、と思い申し込みました。グループのキャンセルが出たため、ガイドさんとマンツーマンとなり「VIP」待遇のラッキーな一日でした。
カヤックの操作は慣れないうちは急いで腕で漕いでしまったのですが、ガイドさんが「ゆっくりでいいですよ～」とその都度アドバイスしてくれました。とにかく海(海面)が近くに感じることができ、波の揺れ、海からの景色もこれまで船舶やボートで体験したのとは全く違うように感じられました。海の雄大さや開放感をより楽しめると思います。今回はガイドさんと二人乗りのカヤックでしたが、次回は一人乗りにも挑戦したいです。
シュノーケリングも好きなだけやらせてもらい、その後にカヤックで食べたパイナップルの美味しさも忘れられません。
一点だけ改善するならば、初めての人には集合場所の看板が小さくてわかりにくいこと。また事前にスタッフは黄色のＴシャツを着ている、と説明が書いてあったが、実際は他の催行会社が着ていたので間違えてそちらに行ってしまい遅刻しそうになりました。

I wanted to go cave exploring too... (T_T) 洞窟探検もしたかった・・・(T_T)

Reviewed by: pyonkichi

It was the first time for my husband and me to go to the sea in a long while and to try sea kayaking. Since both of us are over 50, we were a bit worried about our physical stamina and felt a little nervous about participating, but we had a great time thanks to the careful instruction on how to operate the kayak.

The guide spoke very clear and fluent Japanese, having experience living in Japan, so we had no worries about the language barrier.

We placed our valuables in waterproof bags attached to the kayak, but other belongings were left on the shore (we left ours in Kevin's car), so I think it's best to keep your luggage to a minimum!

As for the tour, we progressed while watching the waves crashing against the cliffs. We were able to see wild goats as well.

The cave exploration, which I was most looking forward to, allowed us to see the waves crashing at the cave entrance, but due to high waves, we couldn't go inside this time. It was quite disappointing, but we can't go against nature... Still, it's a shame! We enjoyed snorkeling in a beautiful coral area, surrounded by colorful fish, floating and diving as we pleased. I might have overdone it here, as I felt a bit tired on the way back.

Also, being someone who gets cold easily, I couldn't stop shivering after getting out of the sea. I think I lost body heat since I paddled back while still wet, so I recommend that those who are sensitive to cold have something warm to put on right after getting out of the water.

We participated from Kailua-Kona, but since we didn't rent a car, we took a taxi to the meeting point. It took about 15 to 20 minutes and cost around $30 including tip (though I'm a bit unsure about the exact amount...). On the way back, we took the trolley bus from the nearby Sheraton Hotel. The ride took about 35 to 40 minutes and cost $2 per person. The bus runs every two hours, so I think it's a good idea to check the schedule in advance.

夫婦そろって久しぶりの海に初めてのシーカヤック。
二人とも50歳を超えているので体力的なことも心配で、ちょっとドキドキしての参加でしたが、操作の方法など丁寧に指導していただき、楽しい時間を過ごせました。
ガイドさんは日本にお住まいの経験もあるということで、とても聞き取りやすい、上手な日本語を話され、言葉の不安はありませんでした。

貴重品は防水バッグに入れてカヤックに取り付けますが、その他の荷物は岸に置いていくので（私たちはケビンさんの車に置かせていただきました）、荷物は極力少なく！！！がいいと思います。


ツアー内容ですが、シーカヤックは波が岸壁に打ち付けられる様子を見ながらどんどん進んでいきます。
野生のヤギも見ることができました。

今回、一番楽しみにしていた洞窟探検、洞窟の入り口に波が打ち付けるところを見ることができたのですが、今回は波が高く中に入ることはできませんでした。かなり残念でしたが、自然には逆らえません・・・。けど残念！！！！
サンゴのきれいなところでシュノーケリングは楽しむことができました。
色鮮やかな魚もたくさんで、自分たちの好きなように浮かんだり潜ったり。
ここではしゃぎすぎたか、帰りは少し疲れました。


あと、寒がりの私は海から上がった後震えが止まりませんでした。
濡れたままカヤックを漕いで帰ってきたので体温が奪われたのだと思いますが、寒がりの方は岸に上がった後、すぐに羽織れるものがあったらいいかなと思います。

私たちはカイルア・コナからの参加だったのですが、レンタカーは借りていなかったので、集合場所へはタクシーで向かいました。
時間は15分～20分、チップも含めて＄30くらいだったと思います。（ちょっと金額はあやふやです・・・）
帰りはすぐそばのシェラトンホテルからトロリーバスで帰りました。乗車時間35分～40分、一人＄2です。バスは2時間に1本とかなので、事前に調べていかれるといいと思います。

We went to see a cave a little away from the bay by sea kayak, dropped anchor nearby, snorkeled, swam for a while, and then kayaked back the same route. The kayak ride took about an hour one way. Since we didn't go ashore, it might be a bit hard for beginners. However, the instructor was very kind, and it didn't matter if you couldn't speak much English. Also, we took a route where there was a chance to see sea turtles, mantas, dolphins, and whales, so I think it would be a great experience if you time it with the season! By the way, I only saw a sea turtle.

I was initially anxious about the meeting place since there were no buildings, but the guide arrived by truck, pulling the kayaks to the entry point to the sea. Accompanied by two pairs of beginner couples, including us and a Dutch couple, the guide adjusted to our slower pace and provided thorough explanations at various spots visible from the sea.

At the sea cave (which wasn't very deep), it was enjoyable to watch the Dutch man and the guide jump from the cliff (we declined to participate). Even when we capsized and fell into the sea, the guide calmly helped us back onto the kayak.

Since both pairs were beginners, we didn't go snorkeling but were simply informed about suitable spots. Although there was a bit of wind and waves, it was a fun first experience with enthusiastic and humorous explanations from the guide, all from a sea-level perspective.

集合場所が建物もなく不安でしたが、海へのエントリー場所に、積んだカヤックを引っ張ってトラックでガイド登場。

Our guide was Jay who was easy going and very pleasant and welcoming! I highly recommend this tour! I will for sure be back in the future!

First sea kayaking 初シーカヤック

Reviewed by: くまさん

The meeting place is near the Sheraton Hotel, so I think it would be very convenient if you're staying at this hotel. We stayed in Kona, so we used Uber for round trips. I didn't realize that I had received several calls from our guide Noni the day before. We participated in the afternoon tour, but I heard that in the early morning, the waves are not as high and the water clarity is better, making it great for snorkeling. Due to our schedule, we could only participate in the afternoon, but I would like to join the early morning tour next time (*^^*).

シェラトンホテル近くが集合場所なので、このホテル滞在ならとても便利だと思います。私達はコナ滞在でしたので、往復Uberを利用しました。
前日から何度もガイドのノニさんから電話をもらっていたのに気がつかず。午後ツアーに参加したのですが、早朝、午前中の方が波が高くなく海の透明度が高くてシュノーケリングも楽しめるそうです。
日程の都合で午後しか参加できなかったのですが、次回は早朝に参加したいです(*^^*)

The sea is the best! 海最高！

Reviewed by: 初ハワイ島

I rented a car to get to the meeting place. It was great to have a car since there was no place to change clothes. I participated with my 5-year-old daughter, and she got seasick during the kayak trip, but she felt better after getting out of the kayak and into the sea. The thrill of being inside the cave and seeing the manta rays was great, but kayaking while feeling the vastness of the ocean was the most fun. The pineapple we received at the end was also delicious.

集合場所までレンタカーを借りて行きました。
着替えるところがないので車があって良かったです。
5歳の娘と一緒に参加し、娘はカヤックの途中で酔ってしまいましたが、カヤックを降りて
海につかると元気になってました。
洞窟の中の迫力、マンタも良かったけど、広い海を感じながらのカヤックが楽しかった。
最後にもらったパイナップルも美味しかったです。

First kayak experience 初カヤック

Reviewed by: ジョンココ

As a couple in our 50s, we embraced the motto of "trying anything that interests us," and this time we took our first kayaking adventure on the Big Island of Hawaii! We enjoyed a pleasant drive along Alii Drive from our hotel to the meeting point at Keauhou Bay early in the morning. Since it was an early morning gathering, we were lucky to find a parking spot on the street.

We were the only participants in the tour, which turned into a luxurious one-on-one instruction experience. Initially, we struggled to make progress, but we managed to find our rhythm together and ventured out into the vast ocean. We also had plenty of photos taken, allowing us to create lasting memories.

Kayaking was truly enjoyable. On the day we returned to Tokyo, I saw a celebrity kayaking in Keauhou Bay on a TV program. Watching that made me think, "I want to do this again next year."

Thank you, Noni! We will be going back to the Big Island next year!

夫婦で50代を迎え、これからは興味を持ったことは「なんでもやってみる」をモットーに、今回のハワイ島ではカヤックに初挑戦！
宿泊していたホテルから集合場所のケアウホウ湾までは、早朝のアリィロードを気持ちよくドライブで。早朝集合だったので、路上（駐車可能な場所）に駐車することもできラッキーでした。
ツアー参加は私たち夫婦だけ。マンツーマン指導の贅沢なツアーになりました。当初はなかなか思うように進みませんでしたが、夫婦息を合わせなんとかコツを掴み、大海原へ。写真もたくさん撮影していただき、思い出深い時間を過ごすことができました。
カヤックはほんとに楽しかったです。
東京に戻った当日、TV番組で芸能人がハワイ島（同じケアウホウ湾）でカヤックをしていました。それを見たら「また来年もしたいな」とつくづく。

ノニさん、ありがとうございました。
また来年もハワイ島へ行きます！

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

I was able to see dolphins offshore after the typhoon passed, but... 台風一過の沖合にイルカを見ることができたのですが…

Reviewed by: 50代の50

I participated with my wife, our son who is in the first year of middle school, and our daughter who is in the fifth grade, making a total of four people. The instructor, Kevin, was kind and taught us in fluent Japanese, so there were no issues with the operation lecture. However, perhaps due to the strong waves, my wife and son became seasick about ten minutes into kayaking and had to return early. Unfortunately, we could only snorkel near the starting point, which was very disappointing. I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take anti-nausea medication beforehand.

Since I was experienced, the explanation for snorkeling was brief, and I thought it might be a bit tough for the inexperienced children. However, since it was a short tour, if the explanation is given in detail, the experience time would be shortened, so I think it's better to communicate in advance which is preferred.

I didn't bring a waterproof camera, but Kevin took photos with his own waterproof camera and later shared the files with us.

妻と中1の息子、私と小5の娘の2組４人で参加しました。
インストラクターのケビンさんが親切で丁寧に流ちょうな日本語で教えてくれたので、操作レクチャーについては問題なかったのですが、波が強めだったせいか、妻と息子の組がカヤックに乗って10分程度で船酔いになってしまい、早々に戻ることになってしまい、シュノーケリングもスタート地点付近でしかできず、とても残念でした。酔いやすい方は必ず酔い止めを飲んでいかれることをお勧めします。
　私が経験者であったことから、シュノーケリングについての説明は短目で、未経験の子供にはちょっと辛いかもしれないと思いましたが、短時間のツアーなので、説明を丁寧にされると体験の時間が短くなるので、どちらを望むかを事前に伝えておいたほうが良いと思いました。
　防水カメラを準備して行かなかったのですが、ケビンさんが持参の防水カメラで写真撮影して、後でファイルを共有させてくれました。

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！！

Be careful of sunburn. 日焼け注意

We paddled for about an hour in a kayak. It felt great and was a lot of fun. A few points to note:
- 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.

カヤックで1時間くらい漕ぎます。気持ち良かったし楽しかったです。いくつか注意点が
・日焼けどめ塗らずに出て、足が日焼けで酷い目に遭いました。脚を日に晒してカヤックを漕ぐので御注意を。

Fantastic experience

Reviewed by: Jason, Bindi, Linda

Had a fantastic time. Kayak was good fun and not overly strenuous. Had a couple of stops along the way to catch our breath before we arrived at the monument. Snorkel was amazing with a huge variety of fish on display at close quarters. A pod of spinner dolphins arrived as we were leaving. Spent an hour snorkeling which gave us plenty of time to look around.
Then a paddle back again afterwards.
Our guide Patrick was very knowledgeable and safety conscious. He looked after us extremely well.
Very good value for the money.

I couldn't get through to the reconfirmation phone number, so I searched for the office on Google, but there was no office. A local person informed me that the office was no longer there. I immediately emailed VELTLA, and they took care of it, but the meeting time was also off by 30 minutes on the day of the tour.

However, the tour was absolutely wonderful. I believe kayaking is something you can only experience in Hawaii. I had a very fulfilling time and enjoyed the beautiful scenery and the stunning ocean. Thank you very much.

リコンファームの電話がつながらず、オフィスまで行こうをググって探しましたがオフィスは無く、ロコの方にもうそこにあったオフィスは無いですよと教えてもらいました。すぐにVELTLAさんにメールをして対処していただきましたが、当日も待ち合わせ時間が３０分違ってました。
しかしながらツアーはとても素晴らしかったです。カヤックを漕ぐなどという事はハワイでしかありえないと思います。とても充実した時間を過ごしました。美しい景色、美しい海を満喫しました。ありがとうございました。

The kids had an amazing time today! Everyone was very satisfied. It was raining on the day of our reservation, but the hotel contacted us in the morning and changed our schedule. The new day had great weather, and as soon as we set off, we saw a lot of dolphins in the sea. We kayaked to a cave a little further away, and it was quite stable; the kids were happily paddling together with their dad. We really enjoyed both the cave and snorkeling. Fortunately, the kids were able to see sea turtles and rays, and they were truly delighted to receive explanations in Japanese. Thank you very much. We would love to participate again!

子供は今日は最高だった！を繰り返し、みんな大満足でした。
予約の日は雨でしたが朝ホテルに連絡をくださり、日程を変更。変更した日は天気が良く、出発してすぐの海には、イルカがたくさん。その後少し離れた洞窟までカヤックをこいで行きましたが、結構安定感があり、子供も父親と二人乗りで楽しくパドルを使っていました。洞窟もシュノーケルもとても楽しめました。ラッキーなことに、海ガメもエイも見ることができた子供は日本語で説明もしてもらえて本当に喜んでいました。ありがとうございました。またぜひ参加したいです。
