Can't say enough good things...

...about to this cruise. My children and I utterly loved this tour and I just want to thank the unforgettable crew members who made this trip a highlight of our vacation. From the moment we stepped onto the boat until we stepped off, it was an absolute pleasure.
Hearing my children's sounds of joy when they saw their first whale breach from the water is something that I will remember always.

Excellent and thank you.
Reviewed by: Yano Moriyama
I hope that everyone who goes to Hawaii gets a chance to participate in this tour since it was one of the best tours I went to when I was in the Big Island in Hawaii. The captain went on a great route in the water to see many places and we saw whales which was the best part of the day. If you go to Hawaii and the Bid Island, I say you should get to this tour. I want to go again!

How great was this tour?
Reviewed by: Lia, Miki, Karyn and Sam
TOTALLY AMAZING! When my friends and I saw this tour we were like, "Hmmm, whale watching? Sure why not!" and I am so glad that we decided to go. The boat was great, the view was priceless and seeing humpback whales jumping and slapping the water is something that I will never forget...ever. Like what a great memory to bring back home with me. Take this tour! You won't regret it!

Whale Watch Cruise on Glass Bottom Boat (from Kailua-Kona Pier)
Great time for everyone!
Reviewed by: Erica B and family
My entire family, that includes my mom, dad, sister, two brothers and my grandparents all went to the Big Island of Hawaii and oh my goodness was it a trial finding activities and stuff that everyone in the group wanted to do and would enjoy doing.
This whale watching was hands-down the best thing that we did together! The younger siblings loved seeing the whales from the boat, and even dolphins, and seeing the reef fish through the glass. Both my parents and my grandparents loved being able to relax and enjoy the cruise and the crew on-board was simply top notch!
Wonderful, that is all I can say..wonderful!

Wish we brought the kids, they would have had a blast!! In any case it was our first time to the Big Island and this was a super good time. I'm guessing it's the same crew, but the afternoon sail crew was just lovely. Highly Recommended!!!

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ 2階建てカタマラン船に乗って壮大なクジラの姿を観察！＜12～3月／軽食付き／英語ガイド／カイルアコナ発＞
鯨やイルカを見ましたヨ
Reviewed by: 匿名希望
陸からさほど遠くない所で、鯨の尾びれや背中を4~5回見ることが出来ました。またイルカが船と一緒に泳いでくれ、水族館で見るものとは比較できないほどの躍動感に感動しました。

長年の夢実現
Reviewed by: さいたまファミリー
午後発のクルーズに乗船、桟橋オフィス（乗船する船の前受付が分かりやすい）チェックイン、船上ではドリンク、フルーツ、スナックサービス（ドリンクの味にひと工夫がほしい）は豊富にありました、甲板も広く外国の人が主ですがクジラ遭遇（出港すると野生イルカに遭遇、ザトウクジラの尾尾を６回写真に収める）による前後左右のスタッフの指示が英語であっても面白おかしく分かり易かった、スタッフは客の対応も熱心で私たちにもなんべんも話しかけてくれた楽しい半日でした。

OKAY
Reviewed by: Kathleen
Body Glove Whale Watching was Okay. The staff was nice, The snacks and beverages were nice. The boat was nice. My trip, though I booked it 3 months earlier, when I arrived at my hotel, it was changed. Sure, they comped the bar to have me switch, but the whales we did see were too far off to make the trip worth-while.

Whales!
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous
We just came back from our honeymoon in the Big Island. We took this whale watch trip, and I must say this was by far the most enjoyable sailing trip we did in Hawaii. Being Discovery Channel lovers, we were so excited to see the real whales in front of us! We can't wait to go back there someday. Five stars!

We were very lucky to see the three whales up-close. One young calf was trying hard to breach with the mother, which was very adorable. The staff was very informative and helpful. I would do this again.

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ 2階建てカタマラン船に乗って壮大なクジラの姿を観察！＜12～3月／軽食付き／英語ガイド／カイルアコナ発＞
爽やかクルージングでした
Reviewed by: 匿名希望
クジラは潮を吹いているのと、尻尾を10回程観る事が出来ました。どれも遠くて写真に収める事は出来ませんでしたが、
海でクジラを観たのは初めてだったので感動しました。
乗船していた「ナチュラリスト」の方の説明によると、12月末はまだアラスカから来るクジラが到着し始めた頃で数が少なく、ベストシーズンは1月末から2月だそうです。 その頃になると、メスを呼ぶオスのクジラの声を水中マイクで聴いたりする事もできるそうです。 クジラ遭遇のヒット率を高くしたい方はシーズンをチェックした方が良いと思います。
とはいえ、今年から新しくしたというボディ・グローブ号でのクルージングはとても気持ちがよく、青い海原と緑の対岸を見ているだけでも癒されます。 スナックやフルーツが無料で用意されているのも嬉しいサービスでした。バーテンダーの方も同乗しており、外国人観光客の方はこぞってカクテルを飲んでいました。 案内にソフトドリンク付きとあったので、試しにノンアルコールのカクテルを頼んでみたら、かわいい蘭の花をつけてくれてこれも無料でした。（ノンアルコールでカクテルを頼むには「ヴァージン」を付ければOKです。例えば「バージン・ピナコラーダ」でラム抜きでカクテルを作ってくれます。）
港に戻る途中でイルカの群れやマンタ（背中だけなのでよく分かりませんでしたが）に遭遇したりと、ヒット率は高かったと思います。 必ず遭える水族館ではなく、自然に任せてのツアーなので、クルージング自体を楽しむ感覚で行けば遭遇出来なくても十分に楽しめると思います。

鯨はいなかったけど
Reviewed by: Orchis
出航して１時間半くらい鯨を探しまわったけど、残念ながら鯨は見えませんでした。説明は英語のみでほとんどわかりませんでした。でも最後にイルカの群れを見つけ、かなり長い時間一緒に海を進みました。何頭ものイルカが船の周りに泳いでくれて、すごく近くで見ることができました。ジャンプを何回も繰り返して大サービスしてくれましたし。結論としては参加して良かったです。

はじめてみた鯨
Reviewed by: 匿名希望
私が見たのはちょっと小ぶりの鯨でしたが、十分迫力はありましたよ！
ごくたまに鯨が船の下を通ったりしてお客さんをビックリさせることがあるそうですが、遠すぎず、近すぎずの距離で私たちを楽しませてくれました。鯨だけでなく広い海ときれいな水にほんとうに癒されます。

圧倒されました
Reviewed by: 匿名希望
結果から言うと、クジラの潮吹きと尻尾を4回見ただけでした。
が、でも！！
通常日本ではありえない時間の流れ、そしてクジラのゆったりとした存在感に圧倒されました。
自然の前では人間なんてほんとにちっちゃいなあ。。。と、スケールの違いを感じるアクティビティーでした。
スタッフはみな親切でしたし、クルージングはすがすがしかったです。
※桟橋で乗り込むまでがちょっと段取りが悪い感じはしましたけど。
感受性の強い方ほど、そして疲れている人ほど癒されると思います。
