ハワイ島 パラセイリング <午前・午後/カイルアコナ発> by UFO Parasail

Amazing view!! すばらしい眺め!!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I'm not good at swimming, so I chose parasailing.
All the instructions were in English, but the staff member (who looked a bit intimidating) explained everything kindly and carefully with gestures, so there were no issues.
I participated in the morning session and saw whales from the sky!
I signed up with Out of this World, and I enjoyed it without feeling scared.

海に入るのが苦手なので、パラセイリングを選びました。
説明は全て英語でしたが、スタッフの方(一見怖そう)がジェスチャーも交じえ優しく丁寧に説明してくれたので問題ありませんでした。
午前中のに参加し、空からクジラが見えました!
アウトオブワールドに申し込みましたが、恐怖感なく、楽しめました。

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>

I had a fantastic time!!! 大満喫!!!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated with my mother in her 60s. I was a bit worried about her joining due to the speed of the boat, but we were both very satisfied. I think elderly people can participate as well. The staff was very accommodating, and during snorkeling, they supported my mother, who couldn't swim, by providing a float that allowed her to look down and see the fish.

Fortunately, we were lucky enough to encounter whales and dolphins. There were no staff members who spoke Japanese, but I think as long as you can communicate a little, you can enjoy the experience without any issues. It's more thrilling than regular whale watching, and I highly recommend it.

60代の母と参加しました。
スピードの出るボートとのことちょっと高齢の母の参加を心配していましたが大満足です。高齢の方も参加できると思います。スタッフの対応もよくシュノーケリングの際は泳げない母をサポートしていただき下を覗けるビート板のようなものにつかまり魚を見せてあげることができました。
ラッキーなことに鯨とイルカにも遭遇することができました。
日本語を話せるスタッフはいませんが少し意思疎通ができれば問題なく楽しめると思います。
普通のホエールウオッチングよりスリリングでお薦めです。

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>

I experienced it. 体験してきました

Reviewed by: MAKO

If you participate expecting typical rafting, you might feel it's a bit different.

Instead of the thrill from drops, it feels more like riding a rubber boat at high speed on the ocean, similar to jet skiing.

Honestly, I got a bit bored since there were no drops, just fast speeds.

Still, I appreciated the service spirit of the captain, and it was great to actually see wild dolphins and a whale in the distance.

The snorkeling spots were nice, though I wouldn't say they were astonishingly beautiful.

一般的なラフティングをイメージして参加すると少し違うものだと感じます。

段差があってその落差でドキドキというよりかは、ゴムボートに乗って海面を速いスピードで移動していく、ジェットスキーのような感覚というと近いかもしれません。

途中、落差がなくスピードが速いだけなわけで正直飽きてしまいました。

それでも、野生のイルカやクジラを探して見に行ったり、船長の方のサービス精神は感じました。
実際に野生のイルカと、遠くにクジラがみれてよかったです。

シュノーケルは驚くほどとはいえませんが綺麗なポイントです。

Thank you for participating in the Ocean Rafting & Lava Cave Adventure Tour.

We are delighted to hear that you were able to see wild dolphins and whales on the day of the tour. Our Ocean Rafting tour is not like the jet ski experience you may have expected; it is a high-speed tour along the coastline on a Zodiac boat.

During the high-speed ride, we also provide explanations about the geography and history of the Big Island of Hawaii. If you have difficulty hearing or understanding during the tour, please let the captain know right away, and we will be happy to explain things more slowly.

We hope to see you again on the Big Island!

Aloha

この度はオーシャンラフティング&溶岩洞窟アドベンチャーツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。

ツアー当日は野生のイルカやクジラも見ることができたとのことで嬉しく思っております。
弊社ツアーのオーシャンラフティングはお客様の想定されていたジェットスキーのようではなく、ゾディアックボートで高速でコーストラインを走っていくツアーです。

ハイスピードでの走行中、ハワイ島の地理や歴史についてもご説明しております。もしツアー中聞こえずらかったり、理解しずらい場合はキャプテンまですぐに伝えていただければゆっくりとご説明させていただきます。

それでは、またハワイ島に遊びに来てください!

Great

Reviewed by: Dirk

This was great activity! The historian who was on board with us did an excellent job of explaining everything that we were seeing along the coast. The food was really good and there was plenty of it. As an added bonus to our wonderful evening, we were first entertained by several schools of dolphins and then we sighted several whales. What a wonderful sight! The crew were very curtious and helpful and the live entertainment and the drinks were great. Definitely a highlight of my stay and something that I would do again!!

野生のマンタ シュノーケリングツアー <英語ガイド/軽食付き>

It was extremely cold. 超・・・寒かった

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

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。
なかなかマンタに遭遇できずに、も~帰りたい・・・と思ってました。しかし、優雅に泳ぐマンタに遭遇したら、寒さも吹っ飛ぶくらいに感動しました。
日本人でレンタカーでの移動でない方は、ホテル送迎をお勧めします。私達は、タクシーでの移動でしたが、チエックしウエットスーツのサイズ確認した場所と船の場所も多少距離がありました。そして、帰りはまったくタクシーがつかまらなくて困り果てました。
その辺をもう少し告知した方が良いかと・・・

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.
We sincerely apologize for not being able to assist you with the taxi on your return. If you let the captain know, we can arrange a taxi for you, so please feel free to ask if needed.

We all look forward to welcoming you back.

On this tour, you can enjoy activities like cruising, snorkeling, and diving. During the cruise, you can see dolphins, and while snorkeling, you can spot many fish. After all the fun, what really made me happy was the fruits like pineapples and oranges! The staff had a lot of chilled fruits ready and served them to everyone.

Thank you for the wonderful memories!

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー 滑り台や飛び込み台完備の船で行く!<午前・午後/英語ガイド/食事付>by フェアウィンド号

I did a lot of diving. たくさん飛び込みしました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

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!!!

ハワイ島 アトランティス潜水艦 ハワイの海底アドベンチャー <日本語オーディオガイド> 

I went diving on the Big Island of Hawaii!! ハワイ島でダイブしてきました!!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

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~!!

Thank you for participating in the submarine tour on the Big Island. We are very pleased to hear that your family was able to see the tropical fish that inhabit the Big Island. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience regarding the Japanese audio guide not being audible through the earphones on the day of the tour. There is a volume adjustment near the viewing point (submarine window) where you can increase the volume to hear the guide better, and we hope you can make use of that.

Additionally, the types of fish you can see vary depending on the sea conditions and the season. Even in the same location, you may encounter different species of fish and marine life, so we would love for you to join us again in the future.

Please come visit the Big Island again!

この度はハワイ島の潜水艦ツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。

また、魚の種類に関してはその日の海の状況や季節などによってもご覧いただける魚の種類が異なります。同じ場所に潜っても違った種類の魚や生き物を見ていただけることも多くありますので、またの機会にご参加いただきたいと思います。

UFO Parasail Adventure - Best Kona Parasailing Tour

First time

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

This was my first time to parasail. I came to Hawaii with my mother who is afraid of heights and water, so I was on my own. It was my first morning in Hawaii and I was not sure where to go. When I called the office after not finding it on my own the lady who answered stayed on the phone talking me through parking then waling from several blocks away. Outstanding service to make sure I was were I needed to be! As soon as I stepped on board both men where ready to answer any questions and talk me through the process with calm confidence. I don't think I could have had a better experience. Thanks to all who worked that day to make my first time a positive experience in what could have been an stressful situation.

ハワイ島 ハイキング&オフロードドライブ 滝遊びもあり <1日/昼食付/英語ガイド>

Kohara Falls Tour コハラ滝ツアー

Reviewed by: こぱんだ

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。

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

Sea cave

Reviewed by: susan

This was reccommended for all levels. I do not agree. We had several children who were not able to paddle and it made it very hard for the adult in that boat. My parents are in their seventies, the guides were nice enough to pull them. The tour was great my family was not the type of customer that needed to be on this tour. We were allowed out of the kayak to snorkle, a very nice spot, but we had to climb on rocks to take a break. The sea cave was neat but not exactly what I was expecting. We ahd to ask to jump off the cliffs - I am not sure they usually do that although it is in the description. The dolphin and whales were no where to be seen. think there are better snorkling tours available unless you are strong and love to kayak.
However the staff and company was great.

ハワイ島 パラセイリング <午前・午後/カイルアコナ発> by UFO Parasail

I felt amazing!! The view was incredible. 最高の気分!!すごい眺めでした

Reviewed by: tamiyo

I participated for the first time in Hawaii.

On the first day of our honeymoon, right after arriving in Hawaii, we headed to Kailua-Kona by rental car for parasailing. Our excitement skyrocketed instantly! We chose the deluxe course at a height of 244 meters, and the view from up there was absolutely breathtaking. Surrounded by the endless blue sky and ocean, we kept saying, "This is amazing!" It was truly a sight to behold.

While flying, the boat would turn and drop down close to the water's surface several times, adding to the fun. We went in jeans and T-shirts, but if you wear a swimsuit and say you're okay with getting wet, they will lower you down to where your feet touch the water. The rapid ascents and descents were quite thrilling, making it not just a scenic experience but also an exciting attraction! If you're feeling a bit apprehensive, I think you can still enjoy it at the lowest height. Even the middle height we chose felt quite high, so I wonder what the top height would be like... I would definitely like to try it again if I have the chance!

One thing to be cautious about is the safety checks at the reception and on the boat. If you're not confident in your English, it might feel a bit challenging, but especially regarding the instructions on "not touching the equipment" and "how to fasten the belt," I think it's important to confirm until you fully understand, even if you have to use gestures. The guide didn't speak Japanese, but explained everything carefully in English. They will teach you as many times as needed if you don't understand something. It's crucial not to just casually respond with "OK."

Once on the boat, you'll quickly find yourself in the middle of the ocean, and when you're ready, you'll soar into the sky... If you prepare yourself mentally to avoid panicking once you're up there, I believe anyone can enjoy it safely!

初めてのハワイで参加しました。

ハネムーン初日、ハワイ到着後すぐにレンタカーでカイルアコナに向かい、パラセイリングへ。ここで一気にテンションMAXになってしまいました☆★
高さ244mのデラックスコースを選びましたが、空から見る景色は本当に本当に絶景で、どこまでも広がる青い空と海の中で、二人でただただ「すごいねぇ」を連発していました。まさに息をのむような光景だったと思います。

飛んでいる間は、何度かボートが曲がったり、高度を海面スレスレまで下げたりして楽しませてくれます。
私たちはジーパン&Tシャツでいったのですが、水着を着ていて「濡れるの(WET)OKだ」と言えば、足が水につくぐらいまで下げてくれるようです。急上昇&急降下はけっこうスリリングなので、景色だけじゃなくアトラクションとしてもかなり魅力的でした!!
もし、「ちょっと怖いかな…」と思うようであれば、一番低い高度でも十分楽しめると思います。私たちの選んだ真ん中のでもかなりの高度だと感じたので、一番上だとどんな感じなのか…。また機会があれば、是非チャレンジしてみたいです!!


注意した方が良いのは、受付時とボートの上での安全確認です。英語に自信のない方はちょっと難しく感じるかもしれませんが、特にボート上で言われる「金具をさわらないこと」と「ベルトの締め方」については、ゼスチャー交じりでも良いので、納得できるまでしっかり確認をした方が良いと思います。
ガイドの方は日本語はできませんが、英語で丁寧に説明してくれました。こちらが理解できていないことは、何度でも教えてくれます。大切なのは、決して適当に「OK」と返事をしてしまわないことだと思います。

ボートに乗るとあっという間に海の真ん中に出て、準備ができれば一気に空の上…上にあがってから急にパニックにならないよう、落ち着いて心の準備をしておけば、誰でも安全に楽しめると思います!!

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>

I had an amazing time!! めちゃめちゃ楽しかった!!

Reviewed by: tamiyo

I participated in this for the first time in Hawaii.

There are various snorkeling tours, and I was really torn, but choosing the raft boat this time was a great decision!

We set off with about 10 guests and 2 guides!! Right from the start, the speed and excitement were incredible!!! We raced over the waves, and it was so refreshing☆

At first, I was a bit worried it might be scary, but once I got on, it was surprisingly stable. Even though the driver maneuvered quite roughly (which was part of the fun), it was more manageable than I expected. The boat tilting during turns and sudden stops was really enjoyable!

The other participants were travelers from Europe and Mexico, and they were all mature couples. I was a bit surprised to see people who looked to be in their 50s and 60s wearing swimsuits and joining such an exciting tour. It was really impressive how active they were! I think there's no need to worry about it being "scary" at all!

The snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay was truly beautiful, with clear water and lots of different kinds of fish! We had plenty of time, and the fruit we had during the break was delicious☆ On the way to and from the snorkeling spot, we encountered a pod of dolphins swimming right next to and below us, and we also visited lava caves… it was a tour filled with fun, and it went by in a flash!!

I highly recommend this activity for both first-timers to Hawaii and repeat visitors!!!! I definitely want to do it again in Hawaii☆★

初めてのハワイで参加しました。

シュノーケルツアーはいろいろあって、すごく迷いましたが、今回のラフトボートは大正解でした!

10名程度の客と2名のガイドで出発!!…直後からすごいスピード&迫力で大興奮!!!波の上を跳ねるように駆け抜けていって、とっても爽快でした☆

最初はちょっと怖いかなぁという心配もあったのですが、乗ってみたら意外な安定感で、運転手がけっこう荒い操縦をしても(楽しませるための演出ですが)思いのほか大丈夫でした。曲がるときや急ブレーキでボートが傾くのも、すごく楽しかった!

一緒に参加したのはヨーロッパやメキシコからの旅行者で、みんな熟年の夫婦の方ばかりでした。50~60歳以上と思われる方々が、水着を着てこんなエキサイティングなツアーに参加するなんて、本当にアクティブだなぁとちょっとビックリ。
それぐらいのツアーなので、「怖いかも」という心配はいらないと思います!

ケアラケクア湾でのシュノーケリングは、本当に水がキレイでいろんな種類の魚がたくさん見れました!時間もたっぷりあって、休憩で食べたフルーツが美味しかった☆
シュノーケリングスポットへの往復の間には、イルカの群れがよってきてすぐ横や下を泳いだり、溶岩洞窟を見に行ったり…楽しみいっぱいで、あっという間の満足ツアーでした!!

ハワイが初めてという方にも、リピーターの方にも、超オススメのアクティビティです!!!!
私も是非またハワイで、もう一回行きたい☆★

伝統ルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショー ボイジャーズ・オブ・ザ・パシフィック(ロイヤルコナリゾート内)<月・火・水・金催行/ブッフェ夕食/飲み放題/シェルレイ付>

Mother and 母と

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

First, my mother, who was given a shell lei at the reception, looked very happy. In addition to the pleasure of dining outdoors while feeling the setting sun, we waited for the food to be prepared while observing the traditional Hawaiian oven, the imu, up close. We also experienced Hawaiian food culture, such as poi, and watched hula and Tahitian dances unfold right in front of us. It was all a first experience for my mother, and her eyes were sparkling with excitement. Even though she doesn't understand English, it seemed like she had a wonderful time, and I was really glad to see her enjoying it.

まず受付でシェルレイをかけてもらった母は大変嬉しそうにしていました。
野外で沈み行く夕日を感じながら食事をする気持ちよさに加え、ハワイ古来のオーブン「イム」を間近で見学しながら出来あがりを待ち、ポイなどのハワイの食文化にも触れ、目の前で繰り広げられるフラやタヒチアンの踊り、全てが初体験の母は目がキラキラしていました。英語が分からない母でもとても楽しんでくれたようで、その様子をそばでみれたのが嬉しかったです。

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー 滑り台や飛び込み台完備の船で行く!<午前・午後/英語ガイド/食事付>by フェアウィンド号

Both snorkeling and BBQ are amazing!! シュノーケルもBBQも最高!!

Reviewed by: teamringo

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.

HPに載っている写真のイメージそのままでした。
海底にはサンゴ礁がびっしり。魚もたくさん。
他のシュノーケルポイントにも行きましたが、ここのポイントは、砂の巻き上げがないせいか、透明度が非常に高いと感じました。深さも深くなく安心して泳ぐことが出来ました。
自由に泳ぐことが出来る時間も非常に多かったです。
昼食前に1時間程度、昼食後に数十分。大満足です。
何よりも、昼食のBBQの美味しい事!!
内容は、ハンバーガーブッフェで、
その場で網焼きされたビーフパティや、新鮮なスライストマト、オニオン、ピクルス等を好きなだけバンズに挟んで食すスタイル。あまりに美味しくて2つ食べてしまいました。
スタッフの方も大変優しくて、注意事項の説明の際には、
日本語の書面を渡して下さり、戸惑うことなく理解出来ました。
スタッフのみなさんありがとうございました。
そして、まだ参加されていない方には、オススメです。

Out of this world. It was a bit scary how high it was. However, there was a sense of security, including the staff's response.

アウトオブザワールド。ちょっと怖いくらいの高さ。でも、スタッフの対応を含めた安心感はありました。

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

Excellent Tour

Reviewed by: John Johnson

I took the doors off flight and I was totally amazed.
This is the best experience you could even imagine.
Ranks equal to or even better than riding my Harley through the Rocky mountains in Colorado.
Of coarse you can tell that I highly recommend this flight and especially with the doors off.
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

野生のマンタ シュノーケリングツアー <英語ガイド/軽食付き>

I got to see a manta ray! マンタに合えた!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

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~☆
