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。

Had tried this in Mexico and wanted my family to have the experience. I was a little skepticle of how my granddaughter would take to it, but was pleasantly surprised. She loved it and found the entire experience the highlight of the entire Hawaiian trip. I highly recommend it to those of you who are contemplating it for yourselves.

I did this helicopter ride with my husband and 12 yr old son. It was fantastic! We got lucky and had a sunny day, and the views of the island were amazing. We saw some lava flows, we saw waterfalls, and the pilot shared lots of information. We saw a house that had recently been destroyed by lava flow, and all that was left was a bit of roof. We had never done a helicopter ride, and I was a bit nervous about it. We rode with the doors on. It was very smooth, and the views made me forget to be nervous. I felt very safe actually. Our pilot (Aaron) was completely competent and friendly and knowledgeable. I got to sit in the front, next to the pilot. My husband and son sat behind us and they had a great time. Its expensive, but its worth doing at least once. You'll get a view of the island that you can't see any other way.

I participated in the afternoon tour. I received a reservation confirmation email that mentioned to call for confirmation the day before, but it might be a bit challenging for those who can't speak English.
I drove to the location with a rental car. The parking lot was far from the office and hard to find, so having a map in advance would be helpful.
The boat was fairly large, and I didn't feel seasick at all. We encountered dolphins along the way. There were light snacks and drinks available on board.
The sea was incredibly beautiful, and I was able to see many fish, coral reefs, and sea urchins. There was also a slide, which was fun.
I was surprised to see an elderly woman, who looked to be over 80 years old and bent over, entering the water! Of course, she had someone accompanying her.
Since it wasn't summer, it was cold when we got out of the water.

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.

Since I am into diving, I went for snorkeling in the bay without expecting too much. It was beautiful.
There were plenty of fish, the reef was stunning, and the water clarity was high.
I think the clarity was comparable to that of the remote islands in Okinawa.
Drinks, snacks, and pineapples were all-you-can-eat.
On the way back, we encountered a pod of dolphins, and further away, there were whales.
It was fun on the large boat without any seasickness.

One experience that can only be had on the Big Island of Hawaii is manta night snorkeling. Plankton gather around the light from the Sheraton Hotel in Keauhou Bay, attracting manta rays that come to feed on them. This is something you should definitely experience at least once. The night boat and snorkeling can be cold, so I recommend bringing a warm jacket. Also, if you are prone to seasickness, it's wise to take some medication beforehand. However, I believe you will have a great experience that you won't regret.
ハワイの中でもハワイ島でしかできない体験がマンタ・ナイト・ショノーケリング。ケアウホウ湾のシェラトンホテルが出す光にプランクトンが集まり、そのプランクトンを食べにやってくるマンタ。これは一度経験した方がいいでしょう。夜の船、シュノーケリングは寒いので温かい上着なども持っていくといいと思います。また船酔いする方は薬も飲んでおいた方が無難だと思いました。でも、後悔しない良い体験ができると思います。

Check-in at Keauhou Bay. This tour is mainly targeted at mainland tourists who are participating in overseas tours, so all the guidance is in English. However, if you've received a basic education, you should be fine. The staff are friendly and respond kindly. Kealakekua Bay has high transparency and calm waves, making it an ideal environment for snorkeling. You'll be welcomed by a variety of tropical fish. Also, if you're lucky, dolphins might come by. With breakfast and lunch included at this price, it's quite reasonable.
ケアウホウ湾でチェックイン。チェックイン時から海外ツアーへ参加しているんだとわかる本土系観光客をメインターゲットにしたツアーです。だから案内等は全て英語ですが、義務教育を受けている人なら大丈夫です。スタッフはフレンドリーで親切に対応してくれます。ケアラケクア湾は透明度が高く波も少ない湾でシュノーケルにはもってこいの環境。色とりどりのトロピカルフィッシュがお出迎えしてくれます。また運が良いとイルカもやってくるそうです。朝食、昼食とついてこのお値段なので納得です。

I underestimated Hawaii. The ocean at night was extremely cold. I was thinking I wanted to go home since I couldn't encounter a manta ray. However, when I finally encountered a manta ray swimming gracefully, I was so moved that the cold didn't matter anymore.
For those who are Japanese and not using a rental car, I recommend hotel shuttle services. We used a taxi, but there was a bit of distance between the place where we checked and confirmed the wetsuit size and the boat. Also, on the way back, we had a lot of trouble finding a taxi. I think it would be better to provide more information about that.
ハワイをなめていました。夜の海は、超寒かったです。

Thank you for participating in the manta tour.
Even though it’s winter in Hawaii, the sea can be cold, but we are very happy to hear that you were able to encounter manta rays and were moved by the experience.

After enjoying the cruise, you can go snorkeling in the cove, where part of the boat becomes a slide and diving platform. I had a great time diving in a free style that you can't do in pools in Japan, spinning in the beautiful sea and jumping in with friends. While doing various jumps, I also got to know other guests and staff on the boat, which made it even more fun. You might find snorkeling and cruise experiences elsewhere, but I highly recommend this option where you can dive wholeheartedly into the beautiful sea!!!
クルーズを堪能した後に、入江でシュノーケルができるのですが、船の一部が滑り台や飛び込み台になります。きれいな海に回転をしたり、友達と一緒に飛び込んだり日本のプールではできないような自由なスタイルで飛び込みを楽しみました。いろんな、ジャンプをしていたら一緒に船に乗っていた他のお客さんやスタッフの人とも仲良くなれてとても楽しかったです。シュノーケル体験やクルーズ体験は他でもできるかもしれませんが、きれいに海に向かって思いっきり飛び込めるこのオプションはおすすめです!!!

The day after arriving on the Big Island, I went on a submarine ride. The weather was nice and the wind was just right, and everyone in my group (from my grandfather to my 5-year-old child, a total of 9 people) was in high spirits.
I was worried about getting seasick and thought I should have taken some motion sickness medication, but as we submerged deeper and the fish appeared before us, all those worries vanished.
The fish I mainly saw were vibrant yellow ones and black and white striped fish. I wish I could have seen more colorful fish like red or blue ones. Perhaps if I had dived in Oahu, I might have encountered a wider variety of fish.
During the dive, there were various explanations in English, and for Japanese speakers, we were given earphones to hear the explanations in Japanese. However, the English explanations were so loud that I couldn't hear the Japanese ones at all, which was disappointing.
That said, the sea was beautifully clear and blue, and I was able to witness truly wonderful scenery, making it a fantastic memory!
ハワイ島に到着した翌日、潜水艦に乗りました^^
天気も良く風も程よく、同行者全員(一番上はおじいちゃんから、一番下は5歳の子供まで総勢9名)気分は上々↑↑
船酔いするかな…酔い止めの薬、飲んでくれば良かったかな…なんて思っているうちに、どんどん潜水していき、目の前に魚たちがあらわれた時には、そんな心配はどこかへ吹き飛んでいました。
主に目にした魚は鮮やかな黄色や、黒と白のストライプの魚が中心でした。赤とか青とか、もう少し違った色の魚が見れればもっと良かったかな…って思っています。
もしかしたら、オアフ島でダイブしていれば、もっと色とりどりの魚を目にすることができたのかもしれませんね。
また、潜水中は、英語で色々と説明があり、日本人に対しては、日本語の説明が聞こえるイヤホンを渡されるのですが、英語の説明の声が大きすぎて、日本語の説明が全く聞こえず残念でした。
とはいえ、海はどこまでも青く澄んで綺麗で、本当に素敵な光景を目にすることができとても素晴らしい思い出になりました~!!

I thought this course would be perfect for us who love trekking, so I made a reservation. I was also attracted by the organizer's name, Hawaii Forest & Trail.
While I considered that since we had a rental car for waterfall trekking, we might not need a tour, I ultimately decided to leave it to the professionals.
At the time of booking, it was stated that there would be no pick-up service, but when I called to confirm on-site, I was pleasantly surprised to find out they would pick us up at our hotel. Additionally, they took our requests for the sandwich fillings for lunch. This really motivated us.
On the day of the tour, since it was an English-guided tour (with Mike as our guide), we had a diverse group including four families from Michigan, a Chinese American couple, a Japanese couple, and a Russian woman living in the U.S., along with us (with our 7-year-old child). It truly lived up to its name as a tour that everyone could enjoy.
With this group, we switched to an old military 6WD vehicle for an off-road experience. We bumped over private ranches and fields, and everyone was thrilled by the incredible vibrations and wind! It was quite cold. After that, we trekked through taro fields and across a suspension bridge, learning about ancient Hawaiian divination methods and plant names while visiting small waterfalls. Although we didn't swim due to the high water levels, I thought it would be a perfect spot in the summer.
The trekking was light enough that even our 7-year-old had no trouble, and we enjoyed a wrap sandwich filled with plenty of alfalfa, cheese, and turkey, along with guava juice and cookies at a ranch overlooking the stunning views of Pololu Valley. This wrap sandwich was among the top meals I had on the Big Island due to its location!
On the way back, we were jostled in the 6WD while exploring the town of Hawi. This town seems nostalgic to Westerners, and I heard from several people that it’s a nice place, although it’s not mentioned much in Japanese guidebooks.
The tour was different from those aimed at Japanese tourists, and I had a lot of fun. I got to know the other members well and exchanged various information, and Mike's warm hospitality along with the breathtaking photos of Pololu Valley left us with wonderful memories.
トレッキングが好きな私達にぴったりのコースだと思い予約しました。主催者の名前もHawaii Forrest & Trailで魅かれました。
滝トレッキングなら、レンタカーもしたしわざわざツアーでなくても良いかなとも思ったのですが、やはりそこはプロに任せることに。
予約時は送迎なしということでしたが、現地で電話で確認するとホテルまで迎えに来てくれるという嬉しい変更が。更に、昼食のサンドイッチの具のリクエストもきいてくれました。俄然やる気になる私達。
当日は、英語のガイドツアー(マイクさん)ということもあって、ミシガンからの4家族、チャイニーズアメリカンと日本人のカップル、在米ロシア人の女性一人参加、と私達(子供7歳)とまさにすべての人が楽しめるツアーと名をうっているだけのことはあるという、バリエーション豊かな面子でした。
このグループで、オーストリアの昔の軍用車6WDに乗り換えてのオフロード体験。私有地の牧場や、畑をがたがた超えてすごい振動と風にみんな大興奮!!かなり寒かったです。その後、タロ畑、つり橋をトレッキングし、ハワイ人古来の占い方法や植物の名前などを教わりながら小さな滝をめぐりました。増水していたので泳ぎはしませんでしたが、夏場だったら絶好の場所だと思いました。
7歳の子供でも全く足でまどいになることがない軽い感じのトレッキングで、ポロル渓谷の絶景を臨む牧場でたっぷりのアルファルファとチーズとターキーのラップサンドと、グアバジュース、クッキーを頂きました。このラップサンド、場所が場所だけに、ハワイ島で味わった食事1,2を争う美味しさでした!
帰りは6WDに揺られて、HAWIの町を散策。この町は欧米人にはノスタルジックらしく、いい場所だと何人からもきいていましたが日本人のガイドブックにはあまり述べられていない場所です。
日本人向けのツアーと、またおもむきやメンバーが違って非常に楽しめました。他のメンバーとも仲良くなって色々情報交換もでき、マイクさんの暖かいホスピタリティーとポロル渓谷の絶景写真と非常によい思い出が残りました。
Thank you for participating in the tour. We are very pleased to hear that our trekking-loving customers were satisfied.
We provide transportation only to the Waikoloa Beach Marriott and Hilton Waikoloa Village. I have also requested Alan1.net to update the tour page.
I believe the content allowed you to fully experience the great nature of the Big Island. Please come back to the Big Island for more trekking adventures!

This was an amazing Luau.. WOW! Can't say enough about it. The food was amazing, the entertainment, the entire night. We opted for preferred seating so we were escorted right in, greeted with a fresh flower lei and had our picture taken. That was just the start of a truly fantastic evening. It was held near the ocean at the King Kamehameha Hotel within view of the Ahuena Heiau. The Ahu'ena Heiau is the religious temple that served Kamehameha the Great when he returned to the Big Island in 1812. The show after dinner was spectacular, hard to describe with words.

The photos on the website were exactly as they appeared. The seabed was densely covered with coral reefs, and there were plenty of fish. I visited other snorkeling points as well, but I felt that this spot had exceptionally high visibility, possibly due to the lack of sand being stirred up. The depth was not too deep, so I felt safe swimming. There was also a lot of time to swim freely. About an hour before lunch and several minutes after lunch. I was very satisfied. Above all, the BBQ for lunch was delicious! The meal was a hamburger buffet, where you could enjoy freshly grilled beef patties, fresh sliced tomatoes, onions, pickles, and more, all piled into buns as you liked. It was so delicious that I ended up eating two. The staff were very kind, and during the explanation of safety precautions, they provided a written document in Japanese, which made it easy to understand without any confusion. Thank you to all the staff. I highly recommend this to those who haven't participated yet.

The pilot on my flight (Dillon) (hope I spelled your name right) was skilled and competent and ready to answer all questions with knowledge and completness.
Just do it!!! A. L. (John) Johnson Englewood CO

At first, I was scared because the manta rays were so close, but I got used to it!
I thought something was bumping into my face, and when I looked closely, it was a huge amount of plankton?! It was amazing!
Even though there were so many, the two manta rays quickly devoured them all!
The view of the sunset in front of the office is beautiful! ☆
マンタが近くてはじめは怖かったけど、慣れました!
顔にプツプツとなにかあたるなぁ~って思ってよく見たら大量のプランクトン?!?!すごかった~
大量にいたのに2匹のマンタがあっという間に食べ尽くしてしまいました~
事務所の前は、サンセットがきれいですよ~☆

Thank you for participating this time.
The reconfirmation call will be in English, so if you have any concerns about the language, I recommend consulting with the hotel concierge.
I apologize for the difficulty in finding the way from the parking lot to the office. I have requested Alan1.net to provide a detailed map.
I am very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the different creatures and atmosphere compared to the seas in Japan. I believe that our tours are a strength that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Please join us again when you visit the Big Island!
