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

Wanting and Getting Adventure

Reviewed by: Kalelena & Kiana Lowry

After two weeks on Island and doing many things, we reflected on our wonderful adventure with the Fair Wind gang. From the Wahines at the check in to the crew on board an awesome time was had by all. We made friends along the way and had a much needed adventure you can't get unless you get aboard. The island is so beautiful from off shore and should be checked out by everyone in need of some true fun. The boat is clean and comfortable. The crew was really up for giving everyone what they needed and smiles and laughter where the results all around. We saw more dolphin on this trip than we did on an actual dolphin trip we went on. A win win in our book. We have a condo in Kona and go quit often. Fair Wind adventures have made a return client out of us on our future trips. Mahalo nui loa for all the le'ale'a (fun)!!!!

Captain Cook Afternoon Snorkel

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

The crew was knowledgeable, informative, and willing to accommodate every skill level. They provided a narrative about the Captain Cook Monument and a quick review of how to snorkel for the experienced participants. For those with little or no experience they provided further assistance. The waters were clear and the coral was beautiful. We spotted several different types of fish too. The fresh oranges and pineapples provided as snacks were quite delicious after being in the water for so long. All in all this was a very pleasant excursion.

This was the best snorkel experience I ever had. The crew is very nice. I saw many amazing things, such as coral, beautiful fish, and sea turtles. I even got extremely close to about 20 dolphins. The boat is also nicely equipped with a water slide and diving board, which are a lot of fun. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to have a great snorkeling experience.

This was a highlight of our stay at Big Island. The snorkeling site was wonderful, we saw lots of fish, dophins, sea turtles and a lot of beautiful coral. I got sea sick during the trip, the crew members were very nice to me and made me feel at home. I definitely rate this activity a Five Star!

Reviewed by: Birgit

First of all I would like to coment how easy it was to book this trip. Even so I made a mistake on the date, Fairwind Cruises had no problem what so ever to correct MY mistake and honor my booking for the right day and time. No hassels what so ever. when do you ever hear about that!!!
The day of our trip we arrived at Kaehou Bay and where greeted and welcomed in the most proffessional manner.Everybody was fitted with sanitized snorkel gear once boarded.Safty intructions where clear and to the point.Refreshments and snacks where plenty.
Staff was helpfull and informative. One of the guys even retieved a $100 dollar bill for a passenger that flew into the water. I hope he got a good tip, lol
The boat took us to Captain Cook Monument where there was incedible snorkling.
The ship had also a highdive and a huge slide. Kids had a ball.
One the way back to the bay delicious mai tais where served.(no host bar)
What an afternoon...............

Wow

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Wow is really all I can say... the boat was a good size a little rocky so if you get motion sickness you will definatley need to something. The snacks were fruit & a cracker mix, the fruit was very good. The drinks besides water & juice are I believe 50 cents a piece. The Boat had a diving platform & slide, so that was pretty fun. They do have prescription goggles if you need those & flotation devices if you need those as well. One of the best things is there are parts that are anywhere from 2 to 7ish feet from the reef it was so beautiful & at times I was literally swimming with the fish. Awsome place I'll have to go back now with my boyfriend.

伝統ルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショー アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ(キングカメハメハホテル内)<ブッフェ夕食/飲み放題/シェルレイ付>

luau show ルアウショー

Reviewed by: ラキア

It was a dance show and fire dance performed by Polynesian people. There was a person cracking coconuts, and between the shows, the host introduced the upcoming show, but since I don't understand English, it was all gibberish to me. However, I was able to enjoy the show itself regardless of the language barrier. As for the food, my impression was, "Is this all there is?" By the way, the day we saw it was sunny, so it was outdoors, but it seems that the next day it was rainy and held indoors. I wonder if they can't do the fire dance indoors?

ポリネシアンの人たちが繰り広げるダンスショーやファイアーダンスでした。ココナッツ割の人とショーとショーの間これからやるショーの紹介を司会の人がしてくれていたみたいなんですが、英語がわからない私には、チンプンカンプンでした。ショー自体は英語がわからなくても関係なく楽しめました。ただし、料理は「こんなもんかな?」という感想です。ちなみに、私達が見た日は晴れていたので屋外でしたが、翌日は雨で屋内でやってたみたいです。ファイアーダンスは屋内だと出来ないような??

Kilauea Volcano Doors-Off Helicopter Tour from Hilo [Not Operating]

Once in a Lifetime!

Reviewed by: Leslie

I had the amazing experience of seeing the volcano and lava field from a helicopter with the doors off! This is a once in a lifetime experience! The vantage point is unsurpassed and one really gets the feel for the enormity and power of volcanos. The volcano was very active during my flight and I could view red lava droping into the ocean, "sky lights" and brand new back sand beaches being created. During the flight you also see many of the beautiful waterfalls and varied micro-climates that make up the Big Island. My photos came out great and I was using a small, digital camera. A MUST DO!!

Reviewed by: Brian

We had a great time at Island Breeze. The location is excellent and the weather was perfect when we were there (April). The Mai Tai's were perfect and so was the food. Gotta try the poi!! Before the show started there was several interactive demonstrations that were fun. The show itself explained well the history and varied cultural influences of the Hawaiian islands. Overall a great evening.

Island Breeze Luau

Reviewed by: Elizabeth Ann Maisel

We enjoyed the show, and the MC was really funny and had a good voice. Before it started we ended up waiting in several different areas for them to set up. The cups for the drinks were too small, even for water and soda. I can understand having small cups for the alcohol, but it was difficult to drink enough water. It would have been more comfortable with the tables and chairs set up on the grass, instead of sitting on concrete (too hot!)Also, a bigger selection of vegetarian options would be good. Overall, as first timers to the Island, we really enjoyed the show. Thanks!

Oceanfront Royal Kona Resort Luau Voyagers of the Pacific Show - Dinner, Drinks & Fire Knife Dance

Luau was great!

Reviewed by: Lori & Craig

This was our first trip to Hawaii, and we thought the luau was a great value! The food was great, and since our room looked over the luau area, we got to see the pig being put in the imu pit early in the day, and then experienced how great it tasted hours later!
Unfortunately our luau was rained out just as the show started, and though we got a raincheck for the show, we had another event planned for luau nights and could only come late into the show. I think we missed a good portion of the fire dancers as we only saw one guy. What we did see was great though!
I'd definitely do it again.

This was our first time to the Islands and our first Luau. We were not disappointed. We had a fantastic time and loved the entertainment. The host was great and very informative of the Hawiian and Polynesian cultures. We loved the costumes and how the dancers interacted with the guest. We upgraded our tickets and ended up sitting in the very front row. WoW! We could not have had a better time.

A night feeling like Hawaii☆ ハワイを感じる夜☆

Reviewed by: Kie

Since I came all the way to Hawaii, I wanted to have at least one dinner that truly felt like Hawaii, so I participated in this show. There was a bit of a wait from check-in to entry, but once we were shown to our seats, there were various activities prepared one after another, and I was able to enjoy myself to the fullest without getting bored. Next to us was a group of grandparents in their mid-80s who were college friends, and we had a great time chatting with them. The food was a spread of local Hawaiian dishes, and what I thought would be just a little bit ended up filling my plate completely, leaving me quite full. As for the dancing, several young women and men performed dances from various countries, and it was very impressive. It turned out to be a memorable night!

This is the best luau i have ever been! Not only is it very affordable but the host is very informative on the cultures of the hawaiians and the other polynesian tribes. My best friend and I had soo much fun in this luau and plus we are amazed at the fire show that they put on. We were very overwhelmingly satisfied w/ the amount of food that they serve (about 20 diff kinds of hawaiian dishes)not to mention the 2 hours open bar! I had too much mai tais w/in two hours! This is a great luau to go to for first timers or as regulars.

Great activity, but had one problem

Reviewed by: Arnab

The luau staff were great, but we wish the hotel staff at the lobby were more helpful. We were out of cash to pay $3 for the parking, and all nearby ATM's were down. We asked the lobby staff to accept a credit card payment, but they would not budge. Finally one person in the Luau staff (Dan, I believe) helped us out (bless his heart!). So even though the activity was great, the ending was somewhat rocky.

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I highly recommend it. The sea is very clear, and there are plenty of fish. For those who are not confident in swimming, they provide floaties and other equipment on the boat, so you can feel safe. The burgers eaten on the boat were also delicious. The captain, who resembled George Clooney, and the cheerful staff were all very kind.

お勧めです。海は透明度が高く、魚もたくさんいます。泳ぎが不安な方も、船で浮き輪等貸してくれますので安心です。船上で食べるバーガーも美味でございました。ジョージクルーニー似のキャプテン、明るいスタッフもみんな親切でした。

It's okay. まあまあかな

Reviewed by: seisyun

I was late for the meeting time, so I was guided to my seat first, but then I went back to get a lei and a flower tattoo. Since it was a buffet, I was able to eat a lot of my favorite foods, but personally, I wanted to eat even more (laughs). While I was in the restroom, the show started, and I missed the Tahitian dance, which was the one I wanted to see the most, so I was really disappointed. The same performers danced various regional dances, which provided a different kind of enjoyment compared to PCC. Since I could see it up close, I carefully observed one dancer to study the dance. If PCC is a show to enjoy the overall impact, I think the show here allows for more detailed observation. It might be great for those who are seeing Hawaiian cuisine and dance for the first time.

集合時間に遅れてしまったので、先に席に案内されたが、戻ってレイや花のいれずみをやってもらった。
バイキングなので自分の好きなものをたくさん食べれたが、私的にもっと食べていたかった(笑)。
トイレに行っていた最中にショーが始まってしまい、タヒチのダンスを見損ねてしまった。一番見たかったダンスだけにショックだった。
色々な地域のダンスを同じ人たちが踊っていたので、PCCとは違った楽しさがあった。まじかで見れたので、一人の人をじっくり観察してダンスを研究した。
PCCが全体の迫力を楽しむショーであるとしたら、ここでのショーはじっくり観察できるものであると思う。
ハワイアン料理やダンスなどを初めて見るといった人にはいいかもしれない。
