Weather that doesn't feel like Hawaii?! ハワイとは思えない天候？！

Reviewed by: ねこねこ

This is my third time participating in the Mauna Kea Nature tour, but unfortunately, the weather was not great this time. I managed to climb to the summit of Mauna Kea from the Onizuka Center, but it was snowing and hailing, and it was extremely cold, so I couldn't see the sunset. I barely caught a glimpse of the sunset through a break in the clouds, and I could see the magma of Kilauea in the distance.

Since I couldn't see the starry sky from up high, I moved down and was able to see it there.

It's disappointing that we can't choose the weather, but in a way, it was quite rare for Hawaii, and it turned out to be a valuable experience.

Above all, I enjoyed participating in the tour with the other guests, encouraging each other in a friendly atmosphere. The guide also made an effort to show us the best possible sunset and starry sky, which added to the fun memories.

Needless to say, the warm miso soup, the improved bento from last time, the winter clothing, and the free photo download service are all attractions of this tour.

If you participate in the winter, be prepared for unpredictable weather; I think it's best to join with the mindset that if you get to see something, it's a bonus. Even without a perfect sunset and stars, there is so much to gain from this wonderful tour.

マサシネイチャーでの参加は3回目ですが、今回はあいにくの天気でした。
オニヅカセンターから上のマウナケア山頂にはなんとな登れましたが雪がつもり雹がふり、極寒でサンセットは見れず。
辛うじて一瞬雲の合間から夕陽、遠くにキラウエアのマグマが。
星空も上の方ではみれなかったため下に移動してなんとか見ることができました。

天候は選べないものなので残念といえば残念ですが、ある意味でハワイではかなり稀な天候であり、それはそれで貴重な経験でした。

なにより同行した他のお客様御一行と和気あいあいと励ましあいながらツアーに参加できたこと、ガイドさんも少しでも良い星空、サンセットをみせようと努力してくださる心遣いが伝わり、それらも含め楽しい思い出になりました。

言うまでもなく、暖かいお味噌汁、前回よりおいしくなったお弁当、防寒着に写真の無料ダウンロードサービスもこのツアーの魅了です。

冬場に参加の場合、天気は荒れやすい、それを覚悟の上、見れたらラッキーくらいで参加するといいと思います。
満点のサンセットと星がみえなくても、得るものが大きい、いいツアーです。

ワイピオ渓谷　乗馬ツアー　絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験 ＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞ by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

You can experience the nature of Waipi'o Valley. It's a recommended tour. ワイピオ渓谷の自然を味わえます。おすすめのツアーです。

Reviewed by: YOSHIYUKI SUZUKI

I think this is my fifth time participating in this tour. Even those without horseback riding experience can join without any issues. You simply proceed slowly in a line through the valley, so you can participate with peace of mind. If possible, I recommend the morning tour as it allows for more time.

Wild Mustangs come close to the herd along the way. It's interesting to see how horses have their likes and dislikes. I believe first-timers will have a very satisfying experience.

While Waipi'o Valley can be viewed from above, you can get a better sense of it by going down. Recently, Japanese documents have also been prepared, so even though the guide doesn't understand Japanese, it’s not a particular problem.

このツアーへの参加は5回目になると思います。乗馬経験のない人でもまず問題なく参加できます。ゆっくりと渓谷の中を一列に進んでいくだけですので、安心して参加できます。できれば午前中のツアーの方が時間の余裕がありますので、おすすめです。
途中野生の馬ムスタングが群れに近づいてきます。馬同士も好き嫌いがあって面白いです。
初めての方には大満足の経験ができると思います。
ワイピオ渓谷は上からも見れますが、下に降りてみると様子がよくわかります。最近では日本語の書類も用意されていますので、ガイドは日本語はわかりませんが、特に問題はありません。

マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供！＜夕食付き／英語ガイド＞by マサシネイチャースクール

Hospitality is... ホスピタリティが・・・

Reviewed by: はてな

I chose this tour because regular cameras can't capture the night sky, but I was disappointed by the lack of hospitality.

During the photo shoot on the way to the summit of Mauna Kea, I asked the guide who took my picture if it turned out well, and he assured me it was fine. I felt relieved and downloaded the photos later, but they were not suitable as keepsakes. It's very unpleasant that these images are shared with other tour participants.

As for the stargazing location, we stopped on a side road on the way from the summit of Mauna Kea to the Onizuka Center for an explanation session. However, several cars passed by on their way down, kicking up dust, and since I was trying to take pictures with a DSLR, the headlights from the cars interfered, causing me to fail at capturing multiple shots. Moreover, the location wasn't open, and the mountains obstructed the view of the night sky, ruining the experience. There should be better spots for stargazing.

Even if the guide is used to the scenery every day, the tour participants are not able to visit these places multiple times. This tour requires you to confirm your reservation on the day of your arrival in Hawaii, but with this kind of service, I felt it was a waste to pay for the phone call.

For positive aspects, please check the comments from other tour participants.

普通のカメラでは星空写真が撮影出来ないので、こちらのツアーを選びましたが
ホスピタリティの無さには期待外れでした。

マウナケア山頂へ行く途中での撮影の際、途中で動いてしまったので撮影してくれたガイドさんに「写真はきちんと撮れているか」と確認した所「大丈夫です」との回答に安心して、後日ダウンロードしましたが、記念写真にならない画像。他のツアー参加者にも公開されているので非常に不快です。

星空観賞の場所。マウナケア山頂からオニヅカセンターへの途中の脇道で停車し説明会が始まりましたが、すぐ近くを下山する車が何台も通るので砂煙が巻き上がるし、私は一眼レフでの撮影に挑戦していたので、車のヘッドライドの明かりが邪魔して何枚も撮影に失敗しました。しかも山間でひらけた場所ではないので、山が邪魔で星空が隠れてしまい台無しです。観賞場所ならもっと他にもあるはずです。

ガイドさんは毎日見慣れた景色でも、ツアー参加者は何回も来れる場所ではないのです。
こちらのツアーはハワイ島到着時に当日の予約確認の依頼をされていますが、この様なサービスでは電話代を支払うのも勿体なく思いました。

良かった点は、他のツアー参加者コメントから確認してください。

ハワイ島 ジップライン体験8本　ワールド・ボタニカル・ガーデンの中を滑走 ＜英語インストラクター＞

Adults can have fun too! 大人も楽しい！

Reviewed by: ともこ

We participated as a couple. It was just before a Japanese interpreter started working, but I heard they will be available here, so I think it will be fine for those who don't understand English if they request an interpreter. The participants ranged from children to adults. There were even families from the mainland U.S. participating together across three generations (from grandparents to grandchildren), so I believe people of all ages can enjoy it.

The first zip line was a bit scary because it was my first time and it was high, but after that, I had a lot of fun. I'm not very good with heights, but I managed. Due to the season, it had been rainy and chilly, making ocean activities impossible, but trying mountain activities during that time was very enjoyable.

夫婦二人で参加しました。
ちょうど、日本人の通訳さんが働き始める前の体験中でした。これからこちらで働くそうなので、英語が分からない人でも通訳さんをお願いすれば大丈夫になると思います。
参加者は子供から大人までいろいろ。
アメリカ本土から親子3世代（おじいちゃん、おばあちゃんから孫まで）で、そろって参加していた方もいたので、年齢問わず楽しめると思います。
最初のジップが、初めてで慣れないうえに高さがあってちょっと怖かったですが、後は楽しめました。
私は高いところがそんなに得意ではないですが、大丈夫でした。
時期的に雨が降って肌寒い日が続いていて、海のレジャーは全然ダメだったのですが、そんなときの山のレジャーとしてやってみたら、とても楽しかったです。

I had given up on reaching the summit because I heard beforehand that it was inaccessible due to snow, but on the day of the tour, I received the wonderful news that "it has become possible to climb since yesterday!"

ワイピオ渓谷　乗馬ツアー　絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験 ＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞ by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

First horseback riding experience 初めての乗馬体験

Reviewed by: Misae

I wanted to go down to Waipi'o Valley and was looking for a tour. I was a bit anxious since I had never been horseback riding before, but I decided to sign up for the tour thinking there might be other Japanese participants. A tall woman came to pick me up at the meeting point as the guide, and after checking in, we headed to the stables in a large vehicle with a 4x4 and horses painted on it. However, she told me that she didn't understand Japanese. I felt uneasy but she reassured me that she could say "danger!" so I should listen carefully. The horseback riding instructions were given in English and gestures, and there were Japanese warning signs and simple explanations posted. Even if you don't understand English, the horses are well-trained, so it's manageable, but if you want to understand the guide's explanations along the way, I think an intermediate level of English is necessary. The horses lined up on their own and walked easily, and the reins only required simple movements. We progressed through the river, crossed it, and even strayed off the path to eat grass, but the smart horses quickly returned to the line. We were able to slowly enjoy the taro fields and waterfalls at the bottom of the valley, and the hour and a half passed in no time. If it's a morning tour, you can head out in the afternoon, which is enjoyable. We were blessed with good weather, and I'm glad I participated. I didn't have time to take photos, but the guide took some for us along the way. I would love to participate again!

ワイピオ渓谷の下まで行ってみたくて、ツアーを探していました。乗馬もしたことがなかったので不安でしたが、日本人で参加している方がいるのならと思いツアーを申し込みました。背の高い女性がガイドで集合場所まで迎えに来てくれて、チェックイン後に4×4と馬が描かれた大きな車で厩舎まで向かいましたが、そのときに日本語は分からないからと言われました。不安になりましたが「あぶない！」だけは言えるから、よく聞いてねと。乗馬の説明は英語とジェスチャーで、日本語の注意書きや簡単な説明文は貼り出されていました。英語が分からなくても馬がよく調教されているので大丈夫ですが、ガイドさんの途中での説明も聞き取りたいのであれば中級以上の英語力が必要かとおもいます。馬は一列に勝手に並んでくれて、歩いてくれますし手綱も簡単な動きだけでした。川の中をどんどん進んだり、川を渡ったり、草を食べに道から外れたこともありましたが、すぐに列に戻ってくれる賢い馬たちでした。渓谷の下のタロイモの畑や滝もゆっくり観られて、1時間半はあっというまに過ぎました。午前のツアーであれば、午後から出かけられるので楽しめますね。天気にも恵まれ、参加してよかったです。写真を写す余裕がなかったのですが、途中でガイドさんが写してくれました。また、参加したいです！

Reviewed by: Mihoko

I participated with my child who is under three years old. My husband and I planned to take turns going into the sea while one of us stayed on the boat with our child, but since the group went a bit far from the boat, that plan turned out to be difficult. In the end, we sat our son on a surfboard and both of us snorkeled with the other participants. At first, our child was scared and crying, but gradually he got used to it and said, "I'm not scared anymore." The staff were very kind to our youngest son, holding him so we could enjoy ourselves without worrying about him, and they were incredibly helpful.

I wasn't sure about the meeting place, but when I called the contact number, they kindly explained the location and even sent a photo of the map to my phone.

We had a great time, but I think it might be difficult for children under three to participate, depending on the staff.

3歳未満の子供と参加しました。主人と交代で海に入り、どちらかが子供と一緒に船上で待っていようと計画していましたが団体が少し船から離れたところまで行くので実際はその計画は難しく、結局サーフボードに息子を座らせて夫婦同時に他の参加者と共にシュノーケルをしました。はじめ子供は怖がっていて泣きべそをかいていましたがだんだん慣れて「もう怖くない」と言っていました。スタッフも最年少の息子にとても優しく、私たちが息子のことを気にかけず楽しめるように抱っこしてくれたり申し訳ないほど親切にしてもらいました。

集合場所もよく分からなかったのですが連絡先に電話を入れたらとても丁寧に場所を教えてくれて私の携帯に地図の写真まで送ってくれました。

とても楽しめましたがスタッフによっては３歳未満の参加は難しいかと思います。

I parked my car in the hotel parking lot. Normally, the parking fee for non-guests is high, but guests of the luau could park for $5. The venue has long tables where you sit with others, but since the other tables are not all acquaintances, it doesn't feel awkward. The food was delicious, the performances were enjoyable, and my son, who is under three years old, had a great time. I was worried that little kids might get bored halfway through, but he seemed to be fascinated by the dancing and music, sitting quietly and happily watching the stage.

ホテルの駐車場に車を停めました。普通宿泊客でない駐車料は高いですがルアウの客は５ドルで停められました。会場は長テーブルで相席になりますが他のテーブルも皆知り合い同士じゃないのでお互い気になりません。食事もおいしく、パフォーマンスも楽しく、3歳未満の息子も楽しめました。小さい子は途中で飽きてしまうか心配でしたが、踊りや音楽が興味深かったようでおとなしくじっとステージを見て喜んでいました。

Be careful of the cold and seasickness!!! 寒さと船酔いに注意！！！

Reviewed by: Michi

Since I went to the Big Island, I absolutely wanted to see a manta ray! With high spirits, I joined this tour. I was really excited until I got into the water, but... since it was December, the water temperature was cold, and the waves were quite strong, so the conditions weren't great. Once I got in the water, it was really cold, and even though I took motion sickness medication, I ended up feeling seasick. I stayed in the water for 30 minutes, determined to see at least one manta ray, and I was able to see a few! The excitement I felt when I saw them was truly beyond words! However, I couldn't last until the end and had to get back on the boat after 30 minutes, feeling groggy... but this is also a memory of my trip.

The instructor, Torichan, was a very cheerful Japanese person, which made me feel really at ease. They lent us their personal windbreaker since we were feeling seasick and offered us warm drinks.

It was easy to communicate in Japanese, which was nice.

I want to see manta rays up close again, so I think I'll try for a rematch during the warmer season!

Thank you for the exciting experience! ^ - ^

Reviewed by: よみたけ

While waiting for the pickup in the hotel lobby, I heard the disappointing news that due to strong winds, we couldn't go to the summit and it was uncertain if we could find a place to see the starry sky. Since we could get a full refund if we canceled now and it was possible to change the tour, we decided as a family to switch to a full island tour the next day. Then, the next morning, it was pouring rain! It really rained a lot. As we waited with low spirits, our guide Matsuzaki arrived with incredibly high energy! I thought the island would only have lava, but it turned out to be a lush green island. Waipi'o Valley was breathtaking, and Akaka Falls was impressive, but the highlight was definitely the Kilauea volcano's crater! It was lucky to see the bright red lava rising so high. The lava dome tunnel provided an adventurous experience, and even though it rained the whole time, they provided a large umbrella and towels, making sure we stayed as dry as possible. We were able to take many photos and truly enjoyed the wonderful aspects of the Big Island. Everyone in the family was very satisfied with the tour. We even saw sea turtles, and we wrapped up the day with a beautiful rainbow and sunset. Thank you, Matsuzaki, for your hard work during the long drive!

ホテルロビーでピックアップを待っていると、強風のため山頂へはいけず、星空も見える場所を探すけれど、どうなるかわからないという残念なお話。今中止すれば全額返金、ツアー変更も可能という事なので家族会議の結果、翌日の島一周に変えさせて頂きました。そして翌朝、大雨！まあよく降ること。テンション低めで待っていると、テンションすごーく高めのガイドマツザキさん登場！溶岩しかないのかと思っていたら、実は緑豊かな島で、ワイピオ渓谷は絶景、アカカ滝も迫力満点でしたが、なんといってもキラウエア火山の噴火口！真っ赤な溶岩がここまで上昇しているのはラッキーなんですって。溶岩ドームトンネルもアドベンチャー気分が味わえ、ずっと雨でしたが、大きな傘とタオルを用意して下さり、なるべく濡れないよう気配りして頂き、
写真もたくさん撮れましたし、ハワイ島の良いところがたくさん味わえた家族全員大満足なツアーでした。ウミガメにも会えたし、最後はきれいな虹と夕日で締めくくり。マツザキさん、長時間のドライブ本当にお疲れ様でした。そしてありがとうございました！

Close Encounters with Huge Mantas

Reviewed by: Celia L

My husband and I enjoyed the evening of going out on a canoe and then getting in the water and holding on to a lighted surf board to observing the huge mantas come right up to you! The young crew members were very friendly and helpful. They did provide a wet suit top but I regretted not having my full wet suit. Although it is in the "warm" Hawaiian water- after 30 minutes the water does steal your bodies warmth. So that would be my only suggestion to the average tourist. Despite the cold near the end, it was such a unique encounter that the amazing mantas- we were thrilled!

Overwhelmed by the manta ray approaching! 目前に迫るマンタに圧倒！

Reviewed by: JoJo

I participated in early November. I was worried about the cold for the night activity, but thanks to the wetsuit I rented, I didn't feel too cold underwater. If the waiting time underwater is long, it might be tough. Fortunately, we only waited about five minutes, and more than three mantas came to us, which made me forget the cold in amazement. The graceful mantas gliding right in front of me were breathtaking! The bright white bellies of the mantas illuminated by the lights stood out against the night sea, making it feel almost unreal. They kept coming until we got back on the surface, and I enjoyed it until the very end.

Once we got back on the boat, my body felt heavier than I expected, and the cold was tough. I'm glad I brought a thick towel and a windbreaker. Also, despite taking motion sickness medicine, I felt nauseous from the waves and couldn't drink cocoa.

Unfortunately, we couldn't see the sunset, so I’ll give it a ☆-1. However, I was very satisfied with the main manta experience! I would definitely recommend it to my friends.

11月初旬に参加しました。夜のアクティビティのため寒さが心配でしたが、借りたウェットスーツのおかげか水中ではあまり寒さを感じませんでした。水中での待機時間が長いとこたえるかもしれません。幸いにも私たちの場合は5分ほど待っただけで3枚以上のマンタが来てくれたので、感動で寒さも吹き飛びました。目の前を優雅に翻るマンタは圧巻です！ライトに照らされたマンタの真っ白な腹部が夜の海に映え、現実のこととは思えないほどでした。水上に上がるまで繰り返しマンタが来てくれて、最後まで満喫できました。
船上に上がってからは思った以上に体が重く、寒さがこたえました。厚手のタオルとウインドブレーカーを持って行ってよかったです。また、酔い止め薬を飲んで行ったのにも関わらず波酔いをしたのか、胸がむかむかしてココアが飲めませんでした。
残念ながら夕日が見られなかったので、☆-1つ。でも、メインのマンタを満喫できたので大満足です！友達にも勧めたいと思います。

Reviewed by: Carolyn K.

The day we six (6) friends took this tour was fantastic. Our guide, Nick, was super. He was attentive, interesting, and very funny. We covered a lot of ground and learned a lot about the big island. Had a great lunch and a fantastic dinner. Recommend this tour for sure.

マンタ大学夜学部　野生のマンタ＆ナイトシュノーケリングツアー ＜送迎可／日本語スタッフ乗船日あり＞

Very satisfied!! 大満足！！

Reviewed by: ゆか☆

This was my first time on the Big Island of Hawaii. I participated based on a friend's recommendation. Previously, I had joined a dolphin tour on Oahu, so I chose to see manta rays this time.

The crew was very kind, which made me feel at ease. The captain was also nice, and Ally provided explanations in Japanese, which was very helpful. We took a helicopter ride to the manta point, and it felt like an attraction similar to a banana boat. The sunset visible from the boat was incredibly beautiful and moving. I was worried about seasickness, as mentioned in other reviews, but I didn't experience any at all.

We held onto the rope attached to the surfboard and waited for the manta rays to come close. At first, they didn't appear at all, which made me anxious, but we moved to another spot where we could see the mantas. When I finally saw them, the experience was so powerful and moving.

On the way back, we were treated to hot chocolate and snacks, which was a nice surprise. The night view from the boat was also beautiful.

今回初めてのハワイ島でした。友人におすすめされて、参加しました。以前は、イルカのツアーをオアフ島で参加したので、見たことがないマンタにしました。
クルーの方もすごく優しくて、安心しました。学長さんも優しく、アリーちゃんも日本語で説明してくれたので、助かりました。
マンタのポイントまで、船のヘリに乗って、バナナボートのようなアトラクション気分で行きました。その際に、船から見える夕陽は、とても綺麗で感動しました。皆さんのレビューにあった船酔いが心配でしたが、全くそれは無かったです。

サーフボードに付いてる紐を持って、ひたすらマンタが近寄ってくるのを待つ感じでした。初めは全然現れなくて、不安でしたが、ポイントを移動して、マンタが見れるようにしてくれました。実際マンタを見ると、迫力がすごくて、とても感動しました。

帰りには、ホットチョコレートと、スナックの差し入れがあり、嬉しかったです。船から見える夜景も綺麗でした。

マンタ大学夜学部　野生のマンタ＆ナイトシュノーケリングツアー ＜送迎可／日本語スタッフ乗船日あり＞

I was moved by the manta rays up close! 間近に見るマンタに感動！

Reviewed by: まさ&なつ

I thought manta rays were something to see at an aquarium (laughs), so I was really looking forward to this tour. Since it was a meet-up plan, I drove there with a rental car, but the meeting spot in the large harbor was a bit hard to find. It's best to allow a little extra time♪

The other participants were from overseas (maybe America?), and our guide, a very cute and cheerful girl named Ari, guided us in perfect Japanese as we traveled by boat for about 20 minutes to the point. It felt amazing; even though it was a small boat, the sensation of cutting through the wind and racing across the evening sea was the best. We encountered wild dolphins along the way, and they even stopped the boat for a bit, allowing us to see them up close. It seemed like the dolphins were coming over to us!

When we arrived at the manta point, we held onto a board with blue lights to watch the mantas. I was shocked to see them so close! I observed their large mouths, round eyes, and even the tips of their tails. It felt like they were dancing around, which was a strange sensation. I had imagined it would be more like just seeing them glide by, so it was quite a surprise.

Of course, since it was nighttime on the way back and my wetsuit was wet, please make sure to bring a bath towel and a windbreaker. The starry sky we saw on the way back was a breathtaking view with the majestic mountains over the sea.

マンタは水族館で見るものだと思っていたので(笑)、このツアーを知って楽しみにしていました。
現地集合プランだったので、レンタカーで行きましたが広いハーバー内、集合場所はちょっと分かりにくかったです。少し時間に余裕をもって♪
他の参加者の方は海外の方たち（アメリカかな？）でしたが、とってもかわいくて明るいガイドのアリちゃんに、ばっちり日本語でガイドしてもらいながら20分ほど船でポイントまで行きます。これがとっても気持ち良くて、小さい船ですが風を切って夕方の海を疾走する感覚は最高でした。途中で野生のイルカにも遭遇して、少し船を止めてくれたのですごく近くで見ることができたし、イルカの方も寄ってきてくれてるようでした！
マンタポイントに着いて、ブルーライトの付いたボードにつかまってマンタを見るのですが、『えっ！こんなに近くで見れるの？！マンタってこんな姿をしてるんだ！』って、大きな口やつぶらな目、しっぽの先までマンタを隅々まで観察できました。くるくるとダンスをしてくれてるようでもあり、不思議な感覚でした。『すーっと通りすぎるのを見る』みたいなイメージだったので、びっくりしました。
さすがに、帰りは夜ですしウェットスーツも濡れてるのでバスタオルやウインドブレーカーをちゃんと持っていって下さいね。帰りに見た星空も、海の上で雄大な山々と共にのぞむ絶景でしたよ。

マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供！＜夕食付き／英語ガイド＞by マサシネイチャースクール

It’s a wonderful memory. 素晴らしい思い出です。

Reviewed by: さちよ

I participated with two friends for the first time on the Big Island. Although it was November, which is said to be the rainy season, we were blessed with beautiful weather, clear skies, and no wind. The sunset sinking into the sea of clouds was truly magnificent, making us forget the cold as we were captivated by it.

I had used Masashi Nature School before, and I could tell that the guide's explanations were very clear and that they had studied a lot about Hawaii and volcanoes. The bento box was, of course, delicious, but I especially appreciated the hot miso soup served in the cold; it was a thoughtful touch.

However, it was a day close to the supermoon, so the sky was bright, and the stars weren't as clearly visible, which was a bit disappointing and left me not completely satisfied. Next time, I will aim for a new moon.

ハワイ島が始めての友人二人と参加しました。
雨季と言われる11月ですがお天気に恵まれ快晴で風もなく雲海に沈む夕陽はそれはそれは素晴らしく寒さを忘れて見入ってしまうほどでした。
マサシネイチャースクールは以前にも利用させてもらいましたがガイドの方の説明がとてもわかりやすくハワイの事、火山の事をよく勉強されているのがよくわかりました。
幕の内のお弁当ももちろん美味しかったのですが
寒い所で出して頂いた熱いお味噌汁は有り難く心遣いを感じました。
ただスーパームーンが近い日だったので空が明るくて星がくっきりきれいに見えなかったのが残念で大満足にはなりませんでした。
次回は新月の時を狙います。

Fun few hours kayaking and snorkeling with Natasha and Sho. Our guides looked after us and had good knowledge of the area. We even managed to see dolphins on our way back to shore which was an added bonus.
