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

Don't miss this adventure!

Reviewed by: KyLaura

Our kayaking trip was amazing! We were both first-timers, and our guide (Tori) did an excellent job explaining how to paddle, safety procedures, etc. if you're like me, you may be thinking, "You all say this is easy...but maybe you're just better at things than I am." Well, trust me: this is easy, fun, and wonderful. The trip was relaxing, and during the snorkeling part we saw lots of fish (yellow tang, parrot fish), an eel, and turtles. Once we got to the cliff and snack area, we also saw a mongoose! A note on the cliff: jump. Seriously, just do it. You will regret it if you don't.

In short, take this adventure! The staff are professional and friendly, and the activity itself is not to be missed. Thank you, Tori, for one of our favorite activities! You are awesome!

ハワイ島 オーシャンラフティング&シュノーケルリングツアー <英語ガイド/食事付き>

Absolutely beautiful! 最高にきれい!

Reviewed by: ヨシミヤ

Thoughts on participating in this tour:
1. There are times when you find yourself surrounded by foreigners, which can feel a bit uncomfortable.
2. I dived three times in total, but during the third dive, the water was deeper, and I couldn't see the beautiful underwater scenery as well. By the second dive, I was quite tired, so I was already full from diving.

Although I wrote some not-so-fun things above, the beauty of the Hawaiian sea during the first and second dives, especially the first dive, is amazing if the weather is good! You can see fish up close, and the coral is right in front of you!
Also, even if you can't speak English, one of the guides can speak some Japanese, so you don't have to worry too much. However, the explanations about the locations are given on printed materials beforehand, and I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't understand the live explanations.
One thing I want to caution participants about is that before going out to sea, you will go to the restroom, but it takes quite a while to get back to the restroom from there. Also, there are times when you accidentally swallow seawater while snorkeling, and in that case, you might end up drinking a lot of water.
So, you might have trouble finding a restroom.

このツアーに参加して思ったこと
1、周りが外人だらけになる場合があり肩身が狭いことが結構あります。
2、計3回ダイブしましたが、三回目は海の震度が深い場所でそれほど綺麗な海の中を見ることができませんでした。そして二回目以降は結構疲れているので海にもぐるのはもうお腹いっぱいでした。

上記にはあまり楽しくないようなことを書きましたが、ハワイの海の綺麗さは一回目と二回目のダイブ、特に一回目のダイブは天気が良ければ最高です!!
魚は近くで見れるし、サンゴも目の前!
また、英語がしゃべれなくてもガイドの一人は多少の日本語も喋れるのでそれほど深く考える必要はありません。ただ、場所の説明などは事前にプリントしたもので配られるますが、生の声での説明がわからないのでそこだけ残念でした。
ただ参加する人に注意しておきたいことは、海に出る前にトイレに行きますが、そこからトイレの場所に戻るまで相当時間がかかるのと、シュノーケリング中に間違って海水を飲むことがあり、その場合に水を飲むことが多いです。
なのでトイレに困るかもしれません。

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

Awesome

Reviewed by: Shane and Ayano

My wife and I went on the kayak and snorkel adventure about a month ago now and we were both so happy that we did. The bay itself and the surrounding areas are incredibly beautiful and kayaking is the best way to see it all. The snorkelling was great and our guide made everyone feel safe. Speaking of the guide, Jasmine was really knowledgeable and enthusiastic and made sure everyone had a great time. A personal highlight was jumping off of the cliffs into the ocean (twice!)We both had a fantastic time and I would thoroughly recommend the sea kayak adventure to anyone

This was an adventure we will treasure for a lifetime. Kayaking among Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins and snorkeling in water with a spectacularly beautiful reef; home to dozens of species of fish. We even viewed Moray Eel and a large White Tip Shark. Words cannot do this justice. Our guide, Mike, was friendly, helpful and informative.

ハワイ島 オーシャンラフティング&シュノーケルリングツアー <英語ガイド/食事付き>

An exhilarating and invaluable experience. 興奮が止まらない貴重な体験

Reviewed by: ヒトン

I participated with my sister. Since it was our first time in Hawaii and our first time renting a car abroad, I was worried about whether we would make it to the meeting point after learning there was no pickup service. However, we arrived safely 20 minutes before the meeting time thanks to the easy-to-understand location and the straightforward route. We couldn't speak any English, but after reading everyone’s reviews, I thought we might manage somehow. On the day, however, all 11 other participants, aside from us, were from English-speaking countries, which made me realize the importance of English. Despite not understanding any English, the captain frequently checked in on us, and we had a very enjoyable time. During the snorkeling session, dolphins swam close to the boat. Unfortunately, we were on the boat when we came up from the water, so we couldn't swim with them, but we were able to see the dolphins up close. The boat was very fast, and an elderly lady who was riding with us became worried (even though I have a good build...) and made me move to a safer seat. Still, the angle between the boat and the water was almost 90 degrees! It was so much fun. Next time, I want to join during the whale watching season and master English so I can communicate with people from other countries. Thank you for the wonderful time.

姉と二人で参加しました。ハワイ島初上陸&初海外レンタカーだった為ピックアップがないと知った時は無事集合場所に着けるか心配でしたが、とてもわかりやすい立地と運転しやすい道のりで集合時間20分前に無事到着できました。英語が全くできない私達皆さんの口コミを読ませて頂いていたので英語が出来なくてもなんとかなるかなぁと思いましたが、当日参加されていたのは私達を除く11名はみなさん英語圏の方たちだった為やはり英語の大切さを実感させられた時間でした。しかし、英語が全く分からない私達ですが、キャプテンがたびたび大丈夫か?と声をかけてくださり、とても楽しい時間を過ごす事が出来ました。シュノーケルの時間にはイルカがボートの近くを泳いでいました。残念ながら私達は海から上がってボートにいる時だったので一緒に泳ぐことは出来ませんでしたがとても近くでイルカを見ることが出来ました。ボートはとてもスピードが速く一緒に同乗していたご高齢のご婦人に心配をされてしまい(私はとても体格がよいにも関わらず。。。)安全な席に移動させられてしまいましたが、それでも海面とボート角度がほぼ90度!とても楽しかったです。次回は、クジラが見える時期に、そして他の国の方たちとコミュニケーションが取れるように英語をマスターして参加したいです。楽しい時間をありがとうございました。

Unexpectedly enjoyable. 予想外にエンジョイ

Reviewed by: 麻呂さん

As marine activity lovers, we requested this experience with a feeling of "it seems fun," and in the end, we were completely satisfied and enjoyed ourselves.

First of all, the staff was friendly and quickly created a relaxed atmosphere. The boat ride truly felt like "ocean rafting," with thrilling speed and dynamic steering that made it feel like an amusement park.

We were lucky enough to encounter a "pod of dolphins" and thoroughly enjoyed dolphin watching. The snorkeling exceeded our expectations, allowing us to see an incredible variety of "tropical fish."

We are grateful to the staff who kept us entertained beyond the scheduled time, and this was definitely an activity we would love to "visit again."

マリンアクティビティ大好きの私たちは、「なんとなく楽しそう」という気持ちでリクエストしましたが、結果的には大満足でエンジョイ出来ました。
先ず、スタッフがフレンドリーで直ぐに和やかな雰囲気を作ってくれ、ボートでまさしく「オーシャンラフティング」満喫のスピードとダイナミック操船で遊園地気分。
運良くだと思いますが、「イルカの群れ」に遭遇してイルカウオッチングを堪能、シュノーケリングも想像以上の「熱帯魚」を見る事が出来ました。
予定時間を超えて飽きる事無くエンジョイさせてくれたスタッフに感謝と、是非、また「遊びに訪れたい」と思ったアクティビティでした。

This is a passive activity where you float on the surface of the water while holding onto a bar, waiting for manta rays to appear. The impressive proximity of the manta rays, coming so close that it feels like they might collide with you, is truly captivating.

バーにつかまった状態で水面に浮き、ひたすらマンタが現れるのを待つ受動的なアクティビティです。

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

Kayaking on the open sea

Reviewed by: Heather

I gave the adventure 5 stars, because I don't think it could have been any better and the guides were excellent.

That being said, I did not enjoy the adventure. The water was very rough and I had a very difficult time paddling and controlling the kayak. I have kayaked on lakes and rivers before without difficulty. In addition, because it was so rough, I got VERY sea-sick. That made the return trip nearly impossible. Since you are on your own, you have to muscle through it. As a result, my husband didn't enjoy it because he was worried about me.

Some suggestions, don't do this adventure if you get sea-sick. Another gentleman in the group was also throwing up, so it wasn't just me. In addition, unless you are in amazing physical condition, get a two person kayak. You can use your combined strength to get through the waves.

野生のイルカウォッチング&シュノーケリングツアー <朝食・昼食付き>

There is a sense of security with the large ship. 大型船の安心感があります

Reviewed by: Kazuya

I was looking for a tour to swim with dolphins on the Big Island and narrowed it down to two options: ① a small boat tour with about six people (no restroom, no shower, some snacks provided, possibly swimming close to dolphins) or ② a large boat (with restroom, shower, breakfast and lunch included, able to see dolphins but not swim with them). When I asked my kids, they preferred the large boat with a slide (more interested in that than the dolphins... haha), and considering my wife's health, I thought it would be better to choose the tour with the restroom, so I went with option ②.

In fact, two years ago, when I participated in a tour with Quicksilver in Cairns, Australia, the large boat had a buffet for lunch and was equipped with restrooms and changing rooms, making it very comfortable, so I chose a similar type this time as well. The departure location was a bit far from the office and unclear, but when I first went to the departure point and asked a crew member near the boat, they kindly guided me, allowing me to find the office and park the car successfully.

When I got close to the boat, the check-in was smooth, and we boarded. The boat was not as large as the one from Quicksilver in Australia, with six booth-style seats like those in a family restaurant, and there were bench seats back-to-back in the central area on the second floor, which had a roof, while the outer bench seats were exposed to the sun. By the way, for those prone to seasickness, the first-floor seats are recommended as they experience less rocking.

Since we had an early morning meeting, there was a simple breakfast buffet where we could eat as much as we wanted, including fruit. Also, I had accidentally submerged my waterproof camera the day before, so I rented a digital camera (GoPro) for about $30 with an 8GB SD card and chip. I think it’s much better than the waterproof disposable camera... I tried both, but the photos included here are from the GoPro.

Unlike the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, we didn’t go out far into the ocean but progressed along the coast. Therefore, we were on the boat for about 30 to 40 minutes. When we arrived, the staff distributed snorkeling masks, and the fins were located under the seats on the first floor, so we were told to choose ones that fit our foot size. The water was deep enough for diving, so I borrowed a life jacket (the staff will lend it to you if you ask; you can just gesture to indicate what you need... haha).

When I went to the Great Barrier Reef in Australia around the same time, the seawater was a bit cold, and I borrowed a wetsuit (to prevent jellyfish stings), but this time it wasn’t necessary (there were no jellyfish). The visibility was incredible, and I could see all the way down. It was beautiful.

We swam freely around the boat and slid down the slide from the second floor (the slide ends around the first floor, and you drop into the water from about one floor high). My third-grade son enjoyed it. The adults also had fun. Even without the slide, you could jump in from the second floor where there were no railings.

Around lunchtime, they started a BBQ on the deck, and we had a buffet-style meal centered around hamburgers. During this time, we had free time to eat or play until the departure time.

On the way back, we encountered a pod of dolphins that swam alongside the boat and jumped around. I think we were very fortunate with the weather. I did feel a bit seasick during the trip, but since it was a large boat, I could lie down in my seat the whole time, so I was glad it wasn’t a small boat.

By the way, we were the only Japanese on this tour. Even though we came all the way to Hawaii, it felt a bit lonely to be surrounded by only Japanese people, so I chose this tour, but thanks to that, I was able to make friends with an American who came from Los Angeles.

Since I got seasick this time, I rated it four stars, but the tour itself was great.

ハワイ島でイルカと一緒に泳ぐツアーに参加しようと探していたところ、2つに絞られ、①6名程度の小型ボート(トイレなし、シャワーなし、スナック程度付、イルカの近くで泳げるかも)でのツアーか、②大型船(トイレ、シャワーあり、朝食・昼食付、イルカを見れるけど一緒には泳げない)になりました。
子どもたちに尋ねたところ船にスライダーがついている②大型船を希望し(イルカよりもそっちか…笑)、妻の体調のことも考えるとトイレが完備されているツアーの方がいいかと思い、②を選びました。
実際、2年前にオーストラリアのケアンズでクイックシルバー社のツアーに参加した時、大型船で昼食にビュッフェがあったり、トイレ・更衣室等完備されていたので、大変快適だったので、今回もそのようなタイプを選びました。
出発場所から若干事務所が離れていてよくわからなく、最初に出発場所に行って船の近くにいるクルーに尋ねたら親切に教えてくれたので、事務所を無事に見つけ、車を駐車することができました。
船の近くに行くと受付が行われていて、スムーズに済み、乗船。
オーストラリアのクイックシルバー社の船ほどの大きさはなく、ファミレスのボックスシートのような席が6か所、あとは二階席で中央側にベンチシートが背中合わせであり、そこには屋根があり、外側のベンチシートは日が当たるような状態でした。ちなみに船酔いしやすい人は1階席の方が揺れが少ないのでお勧めです。
朝早くの集合のため、簡単な朝食バイキングがあり、フルーツを含め好きなだけ食べることができました。また前日に防水カメラの内部に浸水させて故障させてしまったので、デジタルカメラ(GoPro)を借りました(8GBのSDカードとチップを入れて30ドル程度だったかな。防水タイプの写るんですよりは全然いいかと思います…両方試してみましたが。今回掲載している写真は、GoProのものです)
オーストラリアのグレートバリアリーフとは違い沖に出ず、岸に沿って進んでいきます。そのため30分か40分程度船に乗るくらいです。
到着する頃になると、スタッフがシュノーケルのマスクを配ってくれ、フィンは1階のシート下にあるので、自分の足のサイズに合うものを選んで使ってくれということでした。ダイビングもできるくらいの深さのところなので、ライフジャケットを借り(スタッフに言えば貸してくれます。というか、置いてあるものを手で持って、ジェスチャーで示すだけでもわかってもらえます…笑)
オーストラリアのグレートバリアリーフに同じ時期に行った時は、海水がやや冷たく、ウェットスーツを借りましたが(クラゲ防止も含めて)、今回は不要でした(クラゲもおらず)。
透明度がすごくて、思いっきり下まで見えました。綺麗です。
船の周辺を好き勝手に泳いだり、2階からスライダーで滑り下りて(1階くらいでスライダーがなくなり、残り1階分くらいの高さから)、水中に落ちる。小3の息子は楽しんでいました。外国人は大人も楽しんでいました。スライダーでなくても2階の手すりのないところから飛びこむこともできます。
昼食頃になるとデッキでBBQをやり始め、ハンバーガーを中心としたバイキング形式の食事になります。
この辺りは食べようが遊ぼうが出発時間までは自由時間です。
帰り道でイルカの群れに遭遇し、船と並走して、ジャンプしたりしてくれました。
天気にも恵まれて大変よかったと思います。
途中船酔い状態になりましたが、やはり大型船だったため、ずっとシートで横になっていることができたので、小型ボートでなくてよかったと思いました。
ちなみにこのツアーですが日本人はうちだけでした。せっかくハワイまで来たのに、周りが日本人ばかりというのもちょっと寂しいので、そのようなツアーにしましたが、お陰でロスから来られたアメリカ人の方と仲良くすることができました。
今回酔ってしまったので、星4つとしましたが、ツアー自体はいいものです。

Thrilling! You definitely should give it a try. スリル満点! ぜひ、体験してみてください。

Reviewed by: ハワイ島最高!

I participated with my daughter. There were 10 foreign participants and only the two of us from Japan. I wasn't very confident in my English, so I was quite anxious, but I received a Japanese printout at the reception, which helped me understand the general flow of the event, so I was glad to participate.

The rubber boat was very bumpy, and I was desperately holding on, but my daughter was having a great time and was very excited. On the way back, the boat rocked violently from side to side and turned, making it feel like we were on a roller coaster at an amusement park. There were some elderly participants, but they seemed to enjoy themselves, so I think age shouldn't be a concern.

In Kealakekua Bay, we were able to see colorful fish, which became a wonderful memory. We borrowed flotation devices to wear around our bodies and snorkeled, so my daughter, who isn't a strong swimmer, felt safe. The captain shared various stories, and everyone had a friendly atmosphere as the tour concluded.

We were also lucky enough to see whales during the trip, which made us very happy. Since the sun is quite strong, I recommend reapplying sunscreen several times. Hats can be blown away by the wind, so if you're concerned about sunburn on your head, it might be a good idea to wear a hood and secure it with a string. After snorkeling, it gets chilly, so having a hoodie or a large bath towel would be helpful.

帽子は風で飛んでしまうので、頭の日焼けが気になる方は、フードをかぶり紐で止めるといいかもしれません。スノーケル後は冷えるので、パーカーや大きめのバスタオルがあると
いいと思います。

ハワイ島 オーシャンラフティング&シュノーケルリングツアー <英語ガイド/食事付き>

It was interesting! It was fun! おもしろかった! 楽しかった!

Reviewed by: Akishun

We participated as a family of three.
During snorkeling, I touched a long, blue fish that swam right next to me! I was thrilled to see many colorful and beautiful fish in the shallow area to the left as we headed toward Kealakekua Bay. Diving a few meters deep was also interesting as it brought me closer to the fish.
The sandwiches for lunch were very delicious! They were a bit small for the men, but it seemed there were some leftovers, so we could have seconds. There were also snacks and drinks available, which made me satisfied.
On the way back, we enjoyed dolphin and whale watching. There were moments when the dolphins swam alongside the boat without being scared or avoiding it! The dolphins put on a great show, jumping and twisting in the water. It was fascinating to see them do that without being taught.
The whales were dynamic, spouting water and slapping their tails. The highlight was when one repeatedly raised its pectoral fins and slapped the water's surface, almost as if it was saying, "Goodbye!" I was amazed to see a whale up so close.
It was an incredibly valuable experience. Thank you to all the staff!

家族3人で参加しました。
シュノーケルでは、すぐ近くに泳いで来た青くて細長い魚にタッチ!
ケアラケクア湾の岸に向かって左手の浅いところには、色とりどりの綺麗な魚がたくさんいて感激しました。深いところで数メートル潜ってみるのも、魚たちに近付く感じがおもしろかったです。
昼食のサンドイッチは、とてもおいしかった! 男性にはちょっと少なめでしたが、いくつか余ったらしく、おかわりもできました。スナックやドリンクもあったので、満足でした。
帰りは、イルカ&ホエールウォッチング三昧。ボートを怖がることも避けることもなく、中には並走する場面も!
イルカは、ジャンプしたり、ひねり技を見せてくれたり、大サービスでした。教えられたわけでもないでしょうに、どうしてそうするのか、不思議でした。
クジラは、ダイナミックに潮を噴き上げたり、尾びれを打ちつけたり…。最高だったのは、胸びれを何度も上げては水面を叩く様子。まるで「バイバイ!」って言っているようでした。クジラをあんなに間近で見られるなんて、感激しました。
すごく貴重な体験でした。スタッフの皆さん、ありがとうございました。

ハワイ島 オーシャンラフティング&シュノーケルリングツアー <英語ガイド/食事付き>

For those who love attractions! Highly recommended! アトラクション大好きな人! かなりオススメです!

Reviewed by: peacetime

On March 28, 2014, I participated with my two sons, one a university student and the other soon to be a high school student. The office staff were very kind and responded cheerfully to my limited English.

First, we took a boat for about an hour to Kealakekua Bay. By the time we arrived, my backside was a bit sore from the rough ride. We borrowed snorkeling gear, including masks and fins, and jumped into the sea from the edge of the boat. Near the Captain Cook monument, the water was shallow enough to touch, and beautiful fish swam close by. After thoroughly enjoying the underwater show, we got back on the boat for a sandwich lunch, which included drinks, snacks, and pineapple. Everything was delicious! My energetic sons continued to enjoy snorkeling before we headed back.

On the return trip, we went even faster! Driving along the coastline was thrilling! We saw cliffs that looked like the sleeping form of the volcano goddess "Pele," and we almost bumped into coastal caves, which felt like a theme park attraction and was quite exciting.

Suddenly slowing down made me wonder what was happening, and then we spotted a pod of dolphins swimming right next to the boat. They not only jumped but even twisted in the air! I was amazed at how skilled they were, wondering who trained them.

Moreover, out in the distance, we spotted a whale! As soon as we saw it, it approached at an incredible speed, allowing us to do some close whale watching! The way it raised and lowered its pectoral fins looked just like it was waving at us. It was my first time seeing a whale, and it was truly moving.

When we arrived at Honokohau Marina, we were greeted by dolphins and turtles! We had fun right up until the very end. Thank you to everyone on the Captain Zodiac for the wonderful memories.

【Tips for a Comfortable Experience】
The wind can be strong while the boat is moving. Having a larger bath towel and a light hoodie can be comforting.
You might get splashed, so having a plastic bag or ziplock can be handy.
You will be in the sun for a long time, so it's a good idea to bring sunscreen for peace of mind.
The water can be quite cool, so wearing a rash guard is comfortable.
There will be plenty of photo opportunities, so bringing a camera that can record video is recommended.

2014年3月28日、大学生ともうすぐ高校生の息子2人と参加しました。Officeの方もスタッフもとっても親切。拙い英語にも快く答えてくれました。
まずは、1時間ほどボートに乗ってケアラケクア湾へ。激しい揺れにちょっとお尻が痛くなった頃、到着しました。シュノーケル&水中眼鏡、フィンを借りて、いざ海へ!ボートの淵からザブンと飛び入りました。キャプテンクックのモニュメント付近が浅くなっていて、さわれる程ちかくを綺麗な魚たちが泳いでいした。海中ショーをしっかり堪能した頃、ボートに上がってサンドイッチの昼食。飲み物とスナック、パイナップルつきでした。どれも美味しかった! 元気な息子たちは、その後もシュノーケルを楽しみ、帰路に着着ました。
帰りは、さらに高速! 海岸線を走るのでスリル満点! 火山の神『ペレ』の寝姿?みたいに見える絶壁を見せてくれたり、海岸洞窟みたいな絶壁にぶつかりそうに入ったり、遊園地のアトラクションみたいでドキドキしました。
急に減速したので、?と思ったら、ボートのすぐそばをイルカの群れが遊泳中。ジャンプばかりか、ツイストまで見せてくれました。誰が仕込んでるの?って思うくらい芸達者で、びっくり…。
さらに、沖の方には、なんと!クジラが! 見つけるや否やものすごいスピードで近づき、間近でホエールウォッチング! 胸びれを上げ下げしているのが、まるで手を振っているみたいでした。初めて見たクジラ! 感動でした。
ホノウコウマリーナに到着すると、イルカとカメがお出迎え! 最後の最後までしっかり楽しませてもらいました。
キャプテンゾディアック号の皆さん、素敵な思い出をありがとうございました。
【快適に過ごすために】
ボート走行中は風が強いです。大きめのバスタオルと薄いパーカーなどあると、ほっとできます。
水しぶきがかかります。ビニール袋やジップロックなどがあると、便利です。
日差しを浴び続けます。日焼け止めは持って行った方が安心です。
海中は結構冷えます。ラッシュガードを着ていると楽です。
シャッターチャンスがいっぱいあります。動画の撮れるカメラを持っていくといいです。

  • イルカかな? クジラかな?

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

The best 最高

Reviewed by: mitsuuchi

It was amazing. Once you're in the ocean, words are unnecessary. Kevin's personality was kind and attentive, which I really appreciated.

There is no shade on the water, so sunscreen is a must.

最高です。海の中にはいったらもう言葉はいりません。
ケビンさんの人柄も親切丁寧でありがたかったです。

海上は日陰がないので日焼け止め必須です。
