Encounter with a large pod of dolphins. イルカの大群と遭遇

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I encountered a large group of dolphins and swam with them, feeling as if I had become a dolphin myself. Since they are wild, we shouldn't touch them. Although we participated as a family, out of six people, everyone except one child got quite seasick due to the boat and the waves. That said, it was still a very enjoyable experience overall!

イルカの大群に遭遇していっしょに泳ぎ、まるで自分がイルカになったかのような気分。野生なので触ってはいけません。ただ、ファミリーでの参加でしたが、船と海の揺れで6人中子供1人を除いてみんな相当な船酔いしました。それもやむなしで、トータルとても楽しかったです！

Deluxe Captain Cook Snorkeling Tour at Kealakekua Bay - Fair Wind Cruises

Kealakekua Bay Awesome Snorkel

Reviewed by: Apinklady

Although my favorite island is Kauai, my husband and I always take a side trip over to the big island, just because I have to snorkel at Kealakekua Bay! The first time we did it we took the Zodiac boat which was lots of fun, fast, wet, and bouncy. With that said the last three times we have chosen the Fair Wind! This large catamaran provides a wonderful relaxing ride over to the bay and they cook you a wonderful barbecue lunch in addition to a continental breakfast. There is lots of time to snorkel which is totally amazing! The coral and fish are beautiful. My favorite area is around the coral on the monument side. You will see lots of different fish and be sure and go back and snorkel some more after lunch! The catamaran does have slides and high platforms to jump off of, but the best part is snorkeling. They do offer snuba too, if you enjoy that. I highly recommend this tour. It is the best! Don't forget your underwater camera. Enjoy the attached pics.

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 highly recommend it to everyone!! 皆さんにお勧めです！！

Reviewed by: こうじ

I participated in the early morning plan because I was scheduled to join another optional tour in the afternoon.

Since I was staying at the Sheraton Hotel, it was easy to reach the meeting point in front of the hotel sign in just 2-3 minutes on foot. When I arrived, the guide Kevin was already waiting for us and greeted us warmly. When my friend was a bit late and tried to run, Kevin showed a thoughtful concern typical of Japanese people, saying, "Don't run! It's okay."

I learned that he had lived in Japan for over 20 years, and throughout the activity, I felt that his humility and kind, polite demeanor were even more Japanese than many Japanese people. The other guide, Noni, I believe is Japanese as well, and both of them can speak Japanese, so those who are worried about their English can participate with peace of mind!

This was my first experience with kayaking and snorkeling, and my friend had only tried it once before, so we were both beginners. After receiving a simple explanation, we quickly headed out to sea for a bit of practice before setting off! At first, I was a bit tense, but with constant advice from the guides, I gradually got used to it and was able to paddle along comfortably and enjoyably.

When we reached the snorkeling point, after a brief explanation of the snorkels, masks, and fins, we started snorkeling! When my friend was scared, Kevin took her hand and swam with her, and we both had a great time. It was fun to see schools of beautiful yellow fish, but since I have poor eyesight and usually wear glasses, I thought it would be nice to have a mask (goggles?) for people with bad vision, but I still enjoyed it thoroughly!

Both guides answered our questions and made it easy to enjoy casual conversations. Kevin's love for nature and gentle personality really shone through, while Noni was calm and composed, providing solid support, which left a strong impression on me.

While the content of the activities is important, the wonderful personalities of the two guides allowed us to spend a relaxing and healing time. If I come back to the Big Island, I definitely want to participate in their activities again.

I highly recommend it to everyone!!

　午後から他のオプショナルツアーに参加予定だったので早朝プランに参加しました。

　シェラトンホテルに滞在していたので徒歩２~３分で集合場所のホテル看板前に着くことができ、楽でした。到着するとすでにガイドのケビンさんが待っていてくれて、やさしく出迎えてくれました。彼女が少し遅れて走って来ようとすると「走らないで！大丈夫ですよ」とケビンさんが日本人のような細やかな気遣いをみせてくれました。
　話を聞くと日本に２０数年住まわれていたそうで腰の低さや親切丁寧な対応は日本人よりも日本人らしい人だなとアクティビティ中終始感じました。
　もう１人のガイドのノニさんは日本人だと思いますが、お二人とも日本語が話せるので英語に不安のある方も安心して参加することが出来ます！

　私はカヤックとシュノーケルは初体験で、彼女も一度体験しただけのほとんど素人でしたが、簡単な説明を受けた後すぐに海に出て少し練習し、いざ海原へ出発！　最初は力が入りすぎたりしていましたが、逐一アドバイスもしてもらえ、徐々に慣れてゆったりと楽しみながら漕ぎ進むことができました。

　シュノーケルのポイントに着くとシュノーケルやマスク、フィンの説明後、いざシュノーケル開始！彼女が怖がっているとケビンさんが手を取って一緒に泳いでくれ、二人とも楽しむことができました。黄色いきれいな魚の群れが見れたりして楽しかったのですが、私は視力が悪く普段はメガネをかけているので目が悪い人用のマスク（ゴーグル？）があれば良いなと思いましたが、それでも十分楽しむことが出来ました！

　ガイドのお二人はこちらの質問にも色々答えてくれたりで気楽に会話も楽しむことができ、ケビンさんの自然が大好きでやさしい人柄が伝わってきたり、ノニさんは穏やかで落ちついていてしっかりとサポートしている姿が印象的でした。

　アクティビティの内容も大事ですが、ガイドお二人の人柄が素晴らしく、ゆったりと癒しの時間を過ごすことが出来ました。またハワイ島に来ることがあったら、お二人のアクティビティに必ず参加したいと思います。

The staff consisted of a very cheerful older man and a younger guy. They took us to several beautiful spots, including places where cute birds gather and areas resembling the Blue Cave. Their service was extremely polite, and they were attentive throughout. When I dropped my sunglasses in the sea, they dove in to retrieve them, and they quickly noticed when I was being swept away to a shallower area during snorkeling and came to help. I think beginners and families can enjoy snorkeling here with peace of mind!☆

ワイピオ渓谷　乗馬ツアー　絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験 ＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞ by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

It's a place worth visiting! 来る価値のある場所です！

Reviewed by: Natsu

You descend into the valley with the help of the tour staff's driving, but it's absolutely impossible without a four-wheel drive. It was definitely the right choice to rely on a tour rather than trying to go on your own.

The horseback riding experience was great, but even more appealing was the tour that allowed us to immerse ourselves in the natural beauty of the valley.

I heard that the horse I rode was the most spirited one, and indeed, it suddenly trotted a few times during the ride, so I was glad I wore a helmet. Other people's horses had no issues at all, and even small children were riding alone.

The road to Waipi'o Valley also passed through charming rural towns, allowing us to have a very fulfilling time. Overall, the tour was quite rewarding.

渓谷にはツアースタッフの方の運転で降りますが、4駆でないと絶対無理です。個人で行こうとするよりもツアーを頼んで大正解でした。
乗馬という体験もよかったですが、それ以上に渓谷の自然の中に行けるツアーとして魅力的でした。

乗馬では、私が乗せていただいた馬は一番暴れん坊な馬だと聞いており、確かに道中何度か唐突に小走りとなったので、ヘルメットをしていてよかったと感じました。ほかの方の馬は何の問題もなく、小さな子も一人で乗っていましたよ。

ワイピオ渓谷に至るまでの道も田舎のかわいい街があり、とても充実した時間を過ごすことができました。ツアー全体として、やりごたえのあるものでした。

Greedy Plan - Keauhou Bay 欲張りプラン　ケアウホウベイ

Reviewed by: K Koyanagi

After reading the reviews, I signed up for the early morning tour, but since the schedule didn't work out, I couldn't give up and rebooked for the afternoon through HIS after arriving on-site.

I wanted to explore the underwater caves, so I opted for the ambitious plan (kayaking/snorkeling/stand-up paddleboarding) at Keauhou Bay.

I thought it would be a group activity with multiple participants, but it turned out to be just the two of us. They mentioned that they used to have larger groups for tours, but due to the difficulty in keeping an eye on everyone and the waiting times that reduced the actual activity time, they now prefer smaller groups.

I was quite anxious about the ocean activities since I can hardly swim and was worried about the language barrier, but Noni, who has an Asian appearance (possibly of Japanese descent?), spoke Japanese, and Kevin was also fluent in Japanese, which put me at ease.

There were four of us in total: the guide Kevin (male), Noni (female), and the two of us, each in our own kayak (one for the guide team and one for us).

Even though we usually don't exercise at all (a man in his late 40s and a woman in her late 30s), we had a great time.

Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy that day, but we monopolized the Pacific Ocean while kayaking. During snorkeling, I used my life jacket as a kickboard and enjoyed the underwater scenery without realizing how much time had passed until I was called back. Honestly, I had no expectations for the stand-up paddleboarding, but it turned out to be surprisingly fun. (My companion encountered a sea turtle just as they lost their balance and fell in!)

The two hours flew by. It might not be enough for those who want to take their time with each activity, but I highly recommend it for anyone looking to experience some fun in the ocean.

こちらの口コミを拝見して、早朝ツアーを申し込んだところ、スケジュールがあわず、
あきらめきれずに、現地到着後、HIS経由で午後の時間に再度申し込みをしました。

海中洞窟探検をしたかったのですが、
欲張りプラン（カヤック／シュノーケル／スタンドアップ・パドル・ボード）をケアウホウ湾で。

複数グループのアクティビティかと思っていましたが、私たち２人だけ。
以前はもう少し大人数でツアーをしていたが、目が届かないことと、待ち時間ができてしまって本来の時間が減ってしまうので少人数にしていますとのこと。

私はほとんど泳げないので海のアクティビティは言葉が通じないと不安だと思っていましたが、
ノニさんがアジア顔（日系？）で日本語、ケビンさんも日本語が堪能で安心できました。

ガイドのケビンさん（男性）とノニさん（女性）と４人で２艘のカヤック（ガイドチームと私たちで１艘ずつ）。

普段まったく運動をしていない私たち（40代後半男性、30代後半女性）でも十分楽しめました。

当日はあいにくの曇天でしたが、カヤックで太平洋独り占め、
シュノーケルではライフジャケットをビート板代わりにして、呼ばれるまで気づかず、海の様子を楽しみました。
スタンドアップパドルボードは正直全く期待してなかったのですが、やってみたら意外と楽しくて、
（連れはちょうどバランスを崩して落ちた時にウミガメに遭遇していました！）
あっという間の２時間でした。

それぞれじっくりやりたい方には物足りないかもしれませんが、とりあえず海遊びを体験したいという方にはオススメです。

We got to see wild dolphins, and snorkeling in front of the beautiful "Captain Cook Monument," which is the most beautiful spot in Hawaii, was amazing. It's shallow, so even those who are not comfortable in the water (up to their face) can join.

Please be careful after arriving, as there is no changing area provided by the tour company. We dried off from the wind on the return boat and changed at the hotel after returning with our rental car.

I am very satisfied. 大満足です

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated in an afternoon cruise. I drove a rental car to the meeting point for the tour. The weather was nice, and the boat didn't rock much, but while I was fiddling with my camera and looking for my belongings, I started to feel a bit queasy. Since it takes time to get to Kealakekua Bay, I think it's better to take it slow and enjoy the view outside for a while after boarding.

The sea was very beautiful, and I could see all the way to the bottom. There were also many small fish. The boat was equipped not only with snorkeling sets but also with floaties and some kind of tool that allows you to look into the water without putting your face in it.

Only the consent form for the first tour was available in Japanese, but everything on the boat was in English. Since they also discuss safety precautions, I wouldn't recommend it for someone who doesn't understand English at all.

On the way back, we encountered dolphins, and they swam alongside the boat for a while, so we were able to enjoy some dolphin watching. It was a very satisfying tour.

アフタヌーンクルーズに参加しました。ツアーの集合地点まではレンタカーで。天気は良く船も揺れなかったのですが、カメラをいじったり荷物を探したりしていたら少し酔いそうになりました。ケアラケクア湾へは時間がかかるので乗ってしばらくはゆっくり外を眺めていた方が良いと思います。
海はとても綺麗で底の方まで見渡せました。小さな魚もたくさんいます。船にはシュノーケリングセットだけでなく浮き輪や、顔を水につけずに水を覗き込める道具（？）等も準備されていました。
最初のツアーへの参加同意書のみ日本語の紙も用意されていましたが、船の中では全て英語です。注意事項等も話されるのでまったく英語がわからない人にはおすすめできないと思います。
帰りにはイルカに遭遇し、しばらく船と一緒に泳いでくれたのでイルカウォッチングまで楽しめました。とても満足のいくツアーでした。

I was assisted by a very kind person named Kevin, who is fluent in Japanese. We started our adventure from the port near the Sheraton Hotel, setting off on a sea kayak. After about 30 minutes, we arrived at a cave known as "Dragon's Throat," where an impressive sight awaited us. Next, we went to a spot with a water depth of about 5 to 8 meters, filled with coral and many fish, and began snorkeling. We were able to see fish, and on that day, we even spotted a sea turtle! Additionally, we could jump off the rocks, lie down on warm lava rock formations, and enjoy some light snacks that were prepared for us. The chilled pineapple was delicious! If you are prone to seasickness, I recommend taking medication beforehand.

ケビンさんという日本語の大変上手で優しい方が担当してくれました。最初はシェラントンホテルの傍にある港からシーカヤックで出発。３０分程度で竜の喉？と呼ばれる洞窟に到着し、この中は大迫力の光景が広がっています．次に水深5~8mくらいある珊瑚と魚がたくさんいるスポットに行き、シュノーケリング開始．魚を見たり、この日はウミガメも見る事が出来ました！他にも岩場から飛び込んだり、温かい溶岩の岩盤に寝転んだり、軽食を準備してくれているので食事したりできます．冷えたパイナップル美味しかった！海なので酔いやすい方は薬を飲んでおくのがオススメします．

You can enjoy it precisely because you paddle on your own! 自力で漕ぐからこそ楽しめる！

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

After the tour ended, I realized that it wasn't an exploration through caves, but overall, it was very good.

Even as a beginner, when two people cooperate rhythmically in the kayak, we made great progress, and being close to the water made the blue of the sea stand out beautifully. At the snorkeling point, the waves were calm, and we could see colorful fish, plus we jumped off the cliffs!!! I really enjoyed playing in the sea.

For those planning to participate, I recommend:
- Wearing sandals that won’t come off for resting on the rocks.
- Taking sun protection measures is necessary. I suggest applying UV cream before heading back or wearing UV clothing. My feet got particularly sunburned.

The friendly service and enjoyable conversations were also memorable.

ツアーが終了してから、シーケーブとは？っと洞窟をくぐる探検ではなかったことに気づいたのですが、トータルの内容としてはとてもよかったです。

カヤックは初心者でも2人リズム良く協力すると、ぐんぐん進み、海面から近いこともあり海の青さが際立ち本当に綺麗でした。
スノーケルポイントでは、波は穏やかで色とりどりの魚を見る事ができ、絶壁からジャンプ！！！
海遊びを満喫しました。

参加を予定している方へのアドバイスとしては、
・岩の上で休憩のため、脱げないサンダルを履いていくのがおススメです。
・日焼け対策が必要です。
　帰り前にもUVクリームを塗るか、上下UVウェアの着用をおススメします。足が特に焼けました。

I have to say, the staff was fantastic. We came as a family - 2 adults and one 12-year old. One of us adults (me) got motion sickness on this trip. My 12 year old had to bear the brunt of the paddling as we were sharing a kayak. I was dreading the trip back from our snorkeling stop. The guides could see that we were struggling (because of my nausea and the high seas) and they tethered us to their kayak and helped us in. We continued to work our paddles but I think we might still be on the water today if it weren't for their help. My husband was in a single kayak and he did fantastic and had a great time. We certainly cannot blame anyone for my sea sickness except me but the staff was very nice about it and extremely helpful. Thanks guys for all of your help! My husband and son are ready to go again but I think I'll sit the next one out.

The tour made it much easier for route guidance, picking up kayaking tips, tying up kayaks when snorkeling and quick onshore energy supplement. It might be a little demanding physically for individual rowers. Yet the staff were very experienced, helpful (and encouraging for beginners).

Kona Kayaking & Snorkeling Sea Cave Adventure at Keauhou Bay - Ocean Safari's

Kayaking

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Had a good time. I'm athletic so asked for a single but was put in a double kayak with my father since girls are "weak". My father got sea sick so we were towed back even though I wanted to do the rowing. I never did get the exercise I wanted and never saw the sea caves so was pretty disappointed. My brother went on to see the caves in his single kayak. We were told that the activity would be over at noon but my brother came back at 11 a.m. We had to wait around til noon for our ride which was also a little disappointing. Wouldn't do this activity again under the circumstances.

Island Breeze Luau at King Kamehameha Kona Beach Hotel with Show, Dinner & Drinks Included

Good Value

Reviewed by: linda

My husband and I were first time visitors to Hawaii. Going to a luah was one activity we chose. We took advantage of the preferred seating and felt it was worth the money. We were seated right in the front, were able to go first to the buffet and received $5 off our picture and paid only $5 for parking. The entertainment was truly amazing. The food was o.k but we didn't expect a whole lot. The dancers even stood at the exit so you could get a picture with them.

プライベートチャーター　ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー！GoProレンタルあり＜午前／日本語ガイド＞

This is my number one memory from this trip to Hawaii. 今回のハワイ旅行でのNo1の思い出です。

On March 4, 2012, I participated in a tour with Aloha Kona Tours for my honeymoon. During this time, if you're lucky, you can see not only dolphins but also whales.

We were fortunate enough to encounter whales. Moreover, we were much closer than typical whale watching experiences (within 10 meters). In fact, they were swimming right under the boat. On our way back after swimming with the dolphins, a whale jumped right in front of us. I was so excited that I couldn't say anything other than "Wow!" (It was the same for Mr. Nawata from Aloha Kona Tours, right? lol)

There are various discussions about Japan's whaling practices, but I think this experience is one that everyone should have if possible. It had a significant impact on my personal perspective.

There were also plenty of dolphins. I was able to swim while dolphins were right in front of me. Experiencing "swimming with a pod of dolphins" is something you definitely can't do in Japan. Dolphins are just so cute, and there were even mother and baby pairs. I was able to swim multiple times by anticipating the movement of the pod. I got so excited that I swam too much.

As for what to bring, in addition to swimwear, it's a good idea to have a waterproof digital camera. I'll post some photos as well.

Thanks to Mr. Nawata and Ms. Tsuyako from Aloha Kona Tours, I had a safe and incredibly fun experience. (In fact, they were enjoying it with us, too! lol) Honestly, if you're going to the Big Island, you should definitely join this tour.

2012年3月4日にハネムーンでAloha Kona Toursのツアーに参加しました。
この時期は運が良ければイルカだけでなく、クジラも見ることが出来ます。

私たちは正にそれで、クジラと遭遇できました。
しかも、よくあるホエールウォッチングとは比較にならない近さでした。(10m以内)
というかボートの下を通ってました。
また、イルカと泳いだ帰りにも目の前でクジラがジャンプしました。
興奮しすぎて「すげぇ！」以外の言葉が出てこなかったです。
(Aloha Kona Tours縄田さんもでしたよねw）

日本人は調査捕鯨の話などでいろいろありますが、この体験は出来ればした方がいいと思いました。
私個人の考え方にとてもインパクトを与えました。

イルカもたくさん居ました。
目の前にイルカが居る状態で泳げました。
「イルカの群れと泳ぐ」なんて体験は絶対に日本では出来ません。
イルカはとにかくカワイイです。親子連れとかも居ました。
群れの移動に先回りして何回も泳ぐことが出来ました。
テンション上がり過ぎて泳ぎ過ぎました。

持ち物としては水着等以外にも防水タイプのデジカメがあった方がいいです。
写真も投稿しておきます。

Aloha Kona Tours縄田さん・つやこさんのおかげで、安全にとても楽しい体験が出来ました。
(むしろ一緒になって楽しんでましたね(笑)）
お世辞抜きにハワイ島へ行くならこのツアーに参加すべきです。
