Big Island
I participated alone at the recommendation of a friend, and everyone warmly welcomed me. I was anxious about meeting the dolphins, but I encountered a large group and was able to swim with them, which turned out to be a truly wonderful experience! I definitely want to come back again during summer vacation!
友人に勧められてひとりで参加しましたが、皆さまにあたたかく迎えて頂きました。イルカに会えるか不安でしたが、大群に遭遇して一緒に泳ぐことができてほんとに素晴らしい体験になりました!夏休みもまた是非来たいです♪
My trip to the Big Island always includes this snorkeling cruise.
First, we enjoyed a breakfast of fresh fruits and muffins. Along the way, we encountered whales and dolphins, and then headed to Captain Cook's destination. We had a fantastic time snorkeling in the beautiful sea and indulged in a BBQ lunch with hamburgers on board.
During snorkeling, even though I was in shallow water up to my knees, the current was strong, and I was swept away, becoming a feast for sea urchins. Thanks to my fins, I managed to protect the soles of my feet, but I ended up with 30 spines in my left ring finger, 20 in my right index finger, and countless others that I discovered later. I thought I had to remove them right there, so I endured the pain and pulled them out, somehow making it back to the boat. I was pushed back by the waves multiple times, leaving my knees and thighs covered in cuts and bruises, and I had significant bruising on my ribs, but the pain from the sea urchin stings was unbearable. My left ring finger swelled up black and was completely immobile, and even a light touch caused excruciating pain... the power of the sea urchin is terrifying.
The staff treated me with vinegar, which eased the intense pain a bit, but it was still an extraordinary level of discomfort. If you are careful about the current in shallow waters and the sea urchins, you can have a wonderful time!
ハワイ島の旅は、必ずこのシュノーケルクルーズに参加しています。
まずは新鮮なフルーツとマフィンの朝食。
途中、クジラやイルカにも出会え、その後キャプテンクックの目的地へ。
とってもきれいな海でシュノーケルを十分に楽しみ、船上BBQで、ハンバーガーのランチを堪能。
今回、シュノーケルをしている時に、膝下ぐらいしかない浅瀬にもかかわらず、潮の流れが強く、身体がどんどん流され、見事にウニの餌食…
足ヒレのお陰でなんとか足裏はガード出来ましたが、左手薬指に30本、右手人差し指に20本、その他後から傷口見たら数え切れないほどの長い針が刺さってしまいました。とにかくその場で抜かねば、と思い、痛みをこらえ抜き取り、なんとか船へ戻りました。何度も潮に押し戻されたので膝と太腿は切り傷にアザだらけ、肋骨は打撲とかなりの怪我でしたが、ウニに刺された部分がとにかく痛すぎでした。左手薬指は真っ黒に腫れ上がり全く曲げられず、ちょっと触るだけでも激痛…恐るべしウニパワー…
ヴィネガーが良いとのことで、スタッフが処置してくれ激痛が気持ち和らぎましたが、尋常ではない痛みでした。
浅瀬の潮の流れ、ウニにはくれぐれも気をつけさえすれば、素晴らしい時間が過ごせます‼︎
It was my first helicopter tour on the Big Island, and the weather was great. We flew into the valleys and enjoyed views that are usually not seen. It was less scary than I expected, and I was able to enjoy it without getting motion sickness!
はじめてのハワイ島ヘリツアーでしたが、天気も良く渓谷の中にも入り、普段見られない景色を満喫できました。思ったより怖くなく、酔わずに楽しめました!
The guides were amazing! So enthusiastic and wonderful with our 6 year old son. Full of so much knowledge about the mantas! We saw 3 manta rays, one of them swam right up so close it grazed my foot. Amazing, once in a lifetime bucket list for sure!! Really recommend this company!!
I was shivering from the cold until the manta ray appeared, but when it showed up and spun around in front of me multiple times, I was so excited that I forgot all about the cold! I'm really glad I participated. It was so cute, and I felt like I became friends with the manta ray!
マンタが出てくるまで寒くて震えてましたが、マンタが現れなんどもなんども目の前で回転してくれたときはとても興奮して寒さはぶっ飛びました!本当に参加してよかったです。とても可愛かったしマンタと仲良しになれた気がしました!
Thank you for joining us.
The experience after sunset significantly decreases. Please bring warm clothing next time and come to meet the mantas again! Mahalo
ご参加ありがとうございます。
サンセット後のツアーは体感がかなり下がってまいります。
次回は防寒具をお持ちになって、またマンタたちに会いに来てください!
Mahalo
It was the best experience!
The guide instructed us to get into the water when the dolphins arrived, so we were able to see them up close!
While we were on the boat, the guide also helped us look for marine life, and we got to see:
whales,
manta rays,
whale sharks!
I truly feel lucky.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience!
最高の一言です。
イルカが来るタイミングで海に降りるよう指示を出してくれるので、近くで見ることができました!
船に乗ってる間も、ガイドさんが生き物をさがしてくれて、
クジラ
マンタ
ジンベイザメ
を見れちゃいました!!
本当に幸運だったと思います。
こんなにステキな体験をさせていただきありがとうございました!
It was so lucky to sit next to the pilot! The best view and nice weather. Kind and well-experienced pilot. It was expensive but worth trying.
Just the recording of the flight for US$40 was too high. And the conflict with the USB being ready and the bus schedule was too tight.
NB: Check my pick-up time on the voucher!!! It was actually the flight schedule. I was about to miss the biggest event of the trip!!!
That was your Veltra mistake.

That was your Veltra mistake.
I was really able to swim with dolphins. The experience was incredibly moving! Looking back now, I'm glad I was able to make a reservation!
Although I had no snorkeling experience and went out into the ocean, thanks to the support and advice from the swim instructor, I was ultimately able to see the dolphins up close, and I'm really glad I went!
The captain loves the ocean, dolphins, and whales more than anything, and I realized that because of that love, there is so much he can understand and teach us. His love for the animals was overflowing, and that's why we were able to have such an amazing experience. He also assessed the spots from a professional perspective, making for a very satisfying time.
I would love to participate again once I can snorkel! Thank you very much!!!
本当にイルカと泳げました。感動はかなり大きかったです!
今思えば予約がとれてよかった!と思っております。
シュノーケリング未経験で沖に出てしまった私ですが、スイムインストラクターの方のサポートやアドバイスで最終的にはイルカを間近で見ることができて本当に行ってよかった!です。
船長さんが何よりも海、イルカ、クジラなどのことが大好きで、大好きだからこそわかること、教えられることがたくさんあるんだなと思います。動物たちへの愛が溢れていて、だからこそ私たちの体験が得られたんだなと思います。ポイントもプロの目線で見極めてくれてかなり満足な時間でした。
またシュノーケルできるようになって参加したいものです!ありがとうございました!!!
We got to spend a lot of time watching the Spinner Dolphins swim under and around us as we were in the water. Captain Nick and Trevor were great guides!
Thank you for joining us!
We are looking forward to seeing you again:)
The captain and the swim guide were both Japanese with blue eyes, and their love for the sea radiated from them.
Perhaps we were lucky with the timing, as we were fortunate enough to see whales, which got everyone on board very excited.
The dolphins we aimed to see were not at an easily accessible spot, but they knew the locations where we could feel closer to them. If I have the chance to come back to the Big Island, I would love to participate again.
船長、スイムガイド共に青い目をした日本人で、海が好きな感じが
全身からあふれ出ていました。
参加したタイミングが良かったのかクジラも運良く見ることができ、
船内一同大盛り上がりでした。
目当てのイルカも安易に見られるポイントではなく、より近くに感じられる
ポイントを熟知しており、次回ハワイ島に来る機会があったら、また参加
させてもらいたいと思います。
Dolphins are wild creatures, so there's no guarantee that you'll see them, but this tour offers a high probability of encountering them. The reason for this is that the instructor drives the boat and selects snorkeling points based on the dolphins' behavior that day. They also provide detailed instructions to help you see the dolphins up close. When the dolphins appeared right in front of us, I was very excited. I believe this is the only tour where you can see wild dolphins up close with such a high probability. I had a really great time participating. Thank you!
イルカは野生の生き物なので必ず会えると言う保証はありませんがこのツアーは、ほとんどの確率で会えます。
それは何故かと言うと、インストラクターの方が船を運転してその日のイルカの調子でポイントを選んでシュノーケリングをするからです。
またイルカを間近で見るために細かい指示をしてくれます。
今回イルカがの前に現れて、とても興奮しました。これだけ高い確率で野生のイルカを間近に見ることができるツアーはここのツアーだけだと思います。
参加できてほんとに楽しかったです。
ありがとうございます。
We participated as a family of four (all adults). Among the three staff members, the female staff member was fluent in Japanese, so we had no trouble understanding the explanations before snorkeling. The snorkeling lasted about 40 minutes. We were instructed to keep our bodies horizontal and look into the water, but it wasn't difficult to maintain that position since we had a foam-like stick to hold near our knees. The manta rays came close enough to touch. They are large and incredibly impressive! We were able to see at least five manta rays. The staff were very considerate, making our experience comfortable. Additionally, we received a tote bag with a manta ray design on our way back.
I was worried about seasickness, and while my wife experienced some mild symptoms, it wasn't serious, and it seemed that no other participants had issues with seasickness. However, I think it depends on the wave conditions of the day. Also, it might be wise to rent a wetsuit for an additional fee ($10 each).
家族4人で参加しました。(全員大人)
スタッフ3名のうち女性のスタッフの方は日本語が堪能なので、シュノーケリング前の説明等も問題なく理解できました。シュノーケリングは約40分間。
体を水平にして海中を覗き込むように言われましたが、発泡スチロールのような棒状のものを膝の辺りに当てるので体を水平に維持するのは疲れもせず難しくなかったです。
マンタは体に触れるくらいまで近くに来てくれます。
マンタは大きく凄い迫力です! 確認できただけでも5枚のマンタを見ることができました。
スタッフの皆さんもいろいろと気遣いしてくれて快適でした。
それと、帰りにマンタの絵が描かれたトートバッグをいただきました。
船酔いが心配でしたが、妻に少し船酔いの症状が出たものの大事には至らず、他の参加者にも船酔いした人はいなかったようです。ただ、船酔いに関してはその日の波の状況にもよると思います。
それと別料金(1着10㌦)になりますがウエットスーツは借りたほうが賢明ではないでしょうか。
Thank you for participating in the tour.
We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the tour!
We look forward to your participation next time.

My first helicopter experience was enjoyable. I requested a Japanese pilot, but when my reservation was confirmed, I was informed that it would be an English-speaking pilot, so I was glad I could participate with that understanding in advance. Although I'm not a native speaker, I was able to understand, and it turned out to be a very good experience! Unfortunately, the Kilauea volcano was calm, so it wasn't what I had hoped for, but I was able to enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Big Island of Hawaii, and it was worth the price!
はじめてのヘリコプター体験、楽しかったです。
日本語パイロットリクエストしましたが、予約確定時、英語パイロットと、お知らせが来ましたのであらかじめ理解の上参加できたのが良かったです。
ネイティブではありませんが、理解出来、とてもよい体験になりました!
残念ながら、キラウエア火山は沈静化していましたので期待したものではありませんでしたが、雄大なハワイ島の景色を眺めることが出来、お値段の価値はありました!
I was truly impressed by Captain Daisuke's feelings of closeness to the dolphins and whales, as well as his desire to entertain us participants. Thanks to Swim Guide Ray's accurate advice, we were able to swim among the pods of dolphins. It was a deeply moving experience for me. I will definitely return to the Big Island next year during whale season!
船長ダイスケさんのイルカやクジラに寄り添う気持ちと、参加している私達を楽しませたい、という気持ちにとても感服しました。
またスイムガイド・レイさんの的確なアドバイスでイルカちゃん達の群れの中にお邪魔させてもらい泳ぐことができました。
初めての体験に心から感動でした。
また来年クジラの季節にハワイ島で
リピートさせて頂きます!
It was moving! I felt like I made eye contact with a dolphin! I was able to swim right next to a pod of dolphins! I want to swim with Daisuke again! I will keep in touch with everyone I was with, and starting tomorrow, I will work hard dreaming of the day I can swim with the dolphins and all of you again! I hope Daisuke can swim with the blue whale too!
感動です!イルカと目が合った気がしました!イルカちゃん達の群れのすぐ横で一緒に泳げました!だいすけさんとまた泳ぎたい!ご一緒させて頂いた皆さんとも連絡取り合って、またいつかイルカとみなさんと泳げる日を夢見て明日から頑張ります!だいすけさんもシロナガスクジラと一緒に泳げますように
Great morning of Kayaking and saw plenty of fish, 2 reef sharks and an eel. Recommend Morning your before all the boats come in. Jay was great guide.
February 5
On my first overseas trip to Hawaii, I was greeted by Daisuke, a staff member with a bright smile. From the moment we started moving, he shared his love for dolphins and the charm of the Big Island, which got me excited. The fact that there are many whales too made me even more thrilled.
There were 11 Japanese participants, including repeat visitors, and everyone except us was from the Kansai region, making for a lively group.
With Captain Jesse at the helm, we felt the sea breeze and sped through the ocean, which was already an attraction in itself (laughs). Along the way, we encountered manta rays and whales while listening to Daisuke's stories about dolphins, and finally arrived at the dolphin point. We donned fins and snorkels (and wetsuits and floatation devices for those who needed them) and headed into the sea! Looking down, I could clearly see the ocean floor about 15 meters below, illuminated by the sunlight. What a beautiful world.
Following Daisuke's call, I swam toward him and saw many spinner dolphins swimming right beside us, which was such a close encounter! Just as I was soaking in that excitement, the dolphins suddenly made a U-turn and sped off in the opposite direction. After waiting a bit, three bottlenose dolphins appeared. According to Daisuke, the spinner dolphins fled when the "giant" dolphins arrived.
To my surprise, the bottlenose dolphins stayed at the ocean floor, seemingly playing with each other, allowing us to watch them slowly. Daisuke mentioned that such a sight is truly rare in Hawaiian waters. It was an amazing experience to have such a rare encounter.
I highly recommend this tour if you come to the Big Island. One thing to note is that practicing snorkeling in advance can enhance your enjoyment even more.
I will definitely repeat this experience!
2月5日
初めての海外とハワイ旅行、スタッフである朝晴れやかな笑顔のだいすけさんに迎えに来てもらえ、移動中からイルカ大好き&ハワイ島の魅力を教えてもらえ、ワクワク。
クジラも沢山いるね~ってことで更にワクワク。
リピーターを含めた11名の日本人、僕ら以外が全員関西の方だったので賑やかなメンバーとなりました。
船長のジェシーの運転で、海風を浴び、爽快に海を突き進む、もうこれだけでアトラクション(笑)
途中にマンタや鯨に出会いながら、だいすけさんのイルカの話を聞きながら、いよいよイルカポイントに到着。
フィンとシュノーケル(必要な人はウエットスーツと浮具)を纏いいざ海へ!
下を除くと15mくらいの海の底がはっきり見え、ふりそそぐ太陽の光。
なんて美しい世界。
こっちだよ~ だいすけさんの呼ぶ方へついていってみると、沢山のハシナガイルカが何頭も自分たちの横をすり抜けていく、こんな近くに来てくれるんだ~♪くらいに。そんな感動に浸っていると急にイルカがUターン。
ものすごいスピードで反対方向に向かっていきました。
少し待っていると、三頭のバンドウイルカ、だいすけさん曰く、ジャイアンイルカ、ハシナガイルカはジャイアンが来たら逃げていったんだそう。
そのバンドウイルカがなんと、海の底に留まって休憩、お互いにじゃれているように見えましたが、ゆっくりイルカの姿を眺めることができました。
ハワイの海では本当に珍しい奇跡のようなことだそう。
こんなレア体験ができて最高でした。
ハワイ島に来たらこのツアーをオススメします。
注意点としては、シュノーケルを事前に練習しておけると、より楽しむことができると思います☺️
またリピートするぞ!
The sight of three manta rays gracefully rising from the seabed and swirling around in a mesmerizing dance under the fantastical light was truly beautiful and moving. They came up close to us repeatedly, creating an unforgettable experience.
The rental for wetsuits was $10 for adults and $5 for children. I was honestly worried that it might be too cold to endure during this winter season in Hawaii, but thanks to the wetsuits, it wasn't as cold as I expected, and the 40 minutes flew by.
We participated as a family of five across three generations: my mother (68), my husband (44), myself (40), my daughter (16), and my son (10), and everyone was extremely satisfied! The sunset and starry sky before and after snorkeling were also spectacular. Unlike regular snorkeling, this experience involved simply holding onto a board and floating while observing, so even small children, older adults, and those who are not good swimmers can enjoy it without worry.
幻想的な光の中を3枚のマンタが海底から優雅に上がってきて、グルグルと大きく踊るように回る様子は本当に美しく、感動的な光景でした。
身体に触れる近さで何度も何度も上がってきてくれて、一生忘れられない体験になりました。
ウェットスーツは大人10ドル、子ども5ドルで貸出でした。ハワイでも冬のこの時期、正直寒すぎて耐えられないのではないかと不安だったのですが、ウェットスーツのお陰で思ったよりも寒くなく、あっという間の40分でした。
3世代、母(68歳)、主人(44歳)、私(40歳)、娘(16歳)、息子(10歳)の5人で参加しましたが、全員大満足!
シュノーケリング前後の夕日や星空も見応え満点です。普通のシュノーケリングと違い、ボードに捕まって浮かぶだけの観察なので、小さい子も年配の方も、泳ぎが苦手な方も心配なく楽しめます。
Thank you for participating in the tour.
We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed it.
We look forward to your participation next time.

I was disappointed that I couldn't see the manta rays, but the Japanese female staff member was very cheerful. She provided thorough explanations about the tour content and the manta rays before it started, and she made sure that all participants understood the information, including the details about the opportunity for a retry since we couldn't see them this time. Watching the sunset and the journey to the point was very enjoyable, and on the way back, she was very considerate, which left a strong impression on me. Although I didn't get to see the manta rays, I felt grateful to have participated in such a wonderful tour.
マンタには会えず残念でしたが、日本人スタッフの女性がとても明るい方で、始まる前のツアー内容やマンタについての案内から今回見れなかったための再チャレンジの案内まで、参加者全員がちゃんと理解できているか確認するように、きちんと説明してくださりました。
サンセットをみて、ポイントまでの移動はとても楽しく、帰りも色々と気を使ってくださり、そのことがとても印象的でマンタは見れませんでしたがとてもいいツアーに参加できてよかったと思いました。
This time we were disappointed not to see manta rays, but we do have a retry system, so please come back for a revenge next time! Mahalo!
今回はマンタにあえず残念でしたが、リトライ制度もございますので次回リベンジに是非いらしてください!

It was not stated were We would go to for the Manta Ray night time snorkle. We assumed it would be in front of the SheratonKona and were disappointed it was at the secondary location. We saw one manta Ray for about three seconds and that was it. I would highly recommend going to one that is in front of the SheratonKona because we got back to our hotel and we could see them from the restaurant there!
Excellent trip. Saw dolphins, fun time snorkeling, helpful crew.
It was a stable ride compared to a Cessna, providing a sense of security and comfort, making for a wonderful experience. The moment I realized the pilot was Toshi Mochizuki, my sense of reassurance and anticipation doubled.
Although the lava flow had stopped, we were able to get much closer to the crater, and the cliffs viewed from the sea were truly volcanic islands. I was greatly impressed along with the Canadian family who joined me.
セスナと比べて安定した乗り心地、安心快適、素敵な体験でした。パイロットが、望月TOSHIさんだとわかった瞬間、安心感・期待感がさらに倍増。
熔岩の流れはストップしてましたが、その分、火口にもぐんと近付け、海から見る岸壁も火山島そのもの、同乗したカナダ人家族と一緒に大感激したのでした。
Since it was a last-minute booking, I couldn't reconfirm until the day before, but I was able to participate without any issues. It takes about 40-50 minutes to get from Keauhou to Kealakekua Bay. During that time, they distribute fins and masks. Many people were snorkeling while wearing floaties or floats (available for rent). Since I had a 4-year-old and an 8-year-old with me, we were able to borrow a large boogie board (with a window to see underwater). It was a bit chilly because the sun was behind the clouds, so we got back on the boat partway through, but we enjoyed watching foreign guests having fun on the slide until the end. On the way there, pretzels and juice were served in the galley on the first floor, and on the way back, fruit was added. The crew also came up to the second floor to distribute snacks. Even though our English wasn't great, the crew made an effort to communicate with us.
直近の申し込みだったためか、前日までのリコンファームができなかったのに問題なく参加できました。
ケアウホウを出港してケアラケクア湾まで4-50分かかります。その間にフィンとマスクを配ってくれます。
多くの人が浮き輪やフロート(貸し出し)を着けてシュノーケルしていました。4才と8才連れだったので、大きなビート板(水中みられる窓つき)を貸してもらえました。陽がかげっていたので寒かったため途中で船に上がりましたが、最後までスライダーを楽しむ外国人をみたり、それはそれで楽しめました。
行きの船ではプレッツェルとジュースが1階のギャレーで提供され、帰りにはフルーツが追加されます。クルーが2階にも配りに来てくれます。
英語がいまいちな我々にもクルーはややコミュニケーションをとろうとしてくれました。
I was able to see manta rays up close, even more than I expected. It was so close that it was difficult not to touch them, even though we were told not to. When I took a video, it only captured their belly area, it came that close! I will participate again.
思った以上に近くでマンタを見ることができました。触ってはいけないといわれていたので、触らないようにするのが大変なくらい近くまで来て、動画をとってもおなかのあたりしか映らないくらい(笑)近くに来てくれました。また参加します。
Hawaii Island has straightforward roads that are easy to navigate, and the meeting points were clear as well. It was great to see the manta rays up close.
ハワイ島は、道路も複雑じゃなくわかりやすく集合場所もわかりやすかったです。マンタも間近に見えて良かったです。
This was THE COOLEST snorkel excursion. First they picked us up from our hotel, RAD. They have a marine biologist on board that taught us a lot about the creatures we'd be seeing and the ecosystem which was fascinating. The area they took us to was a gorgeous reef and we saw some amazing fish and sea creatures. The marine biologist was even diving for starfish that he showed everyone and let us pet while we were in the water. We got a good hour and a half of snorkeling and then it was time for a tasty sandwich bar lunch. On the way back was, yes what you've all been waiting for, an OPEN BAR. Those were the best drinks I got on the island. It was awesome, big shout out to the amazing crew.
Aloha,
Thanks for taking the time to provide feedback about your Snorkel and Watch Watch Adventure Cruise for the Veltra Community (and us). We're so happy to read that you enjoyed the cruise and the service provided by the crew, the snorkeling, and our on-board menu. Thanks for sharing the photos too...so beautiful!
As a locally owned and operated company on the Big Island, we rely heavily on word-of-mouth recommendations, and we're honored by yours.
We look forward to sharing more adventures with you next time you're in our neighborhood!
Mahalo
The crew and boat delivered for us and found the mantas. Would definitely do again.malby
Thank you for taking the time to review your tour. We're happy you had a good time. We hope you join us again next time you're on the Big Island. A Hui Hou!
I couldn't meet the 270 manta rays because there were reports of sharks that eat mantas... but a few days later, I was able to switch to a dolphin experience! I recommend booking early in your stay so you can make changes if needed. If you bring your smartphone, you can take photos on the boat. There was also time to enjoy the sunset. When we went, we were the only Japanese people there, but we had a Japanese guide who made it enjoyable.
マンタを食べるサメが出没中とのことで270枚いるはずのマンタに逢えず…でしたが数日後のイルカに振り替えて貰えました!行くときは振り替えられるよう滞在の前半に申し込むのがおススメです。スマホ持って行くとボートの中で写真撮ってもらえますよ。夕日を眺められる時間あり。行ったときは私たち以外海外の人でしたが、日本人ガイドが付いて下さって楽しめました。
Thank you for participating in the tour.
It is quite rare not to see manta rays, but I am glad to hear that you were able to swim with dolphins on a rescheduled date.
We look forward to your participation next time.

I was worried because I have little experience with snorkeling, but I received great support and was able to participate with peace of mind. The swim guides seemed to constantly share information about the dolphins, and thanks to their judgment on where to take us, I was able to see many dolphins!
(If the dolphin sighting location is far away, I think it's good to have motion sickness medication for those who are concerned.)
Also, while on the boat, Daisuke, the swim guide, shared a lot of information about the dolphins and always let us know when dolphins were nearby, which made the waiting time enjoyable.
Additionally, we were lucky enough to encounter whales during the winter season, allowing us to experience both dolphin swimming and whale watching, which was a double delight!
There may be other dolphin swim tours, but this tour was satisfying in every aspect, including knowledge about dolphins, support, and the friendliness of the staff! If I have the opportunity to go to Hawaii again, I would love to do this again.
シュノーケリング等の経験が浅いので心配でしたが、しっかりとフォローしてもらい、安心して参加できました★
スイムガイドさん達も常にイルカの情報をシェアしあっているようで、ちゃんとイルカが見られる場所までその場その場の判断で連れてってくださったおかげでたくさんのイルカをみることができました!!^^
(イルカの出現場所によっては遠くなることもあるので心配な方は酔い止めがあるといいと思います)
また、船に乗っている間もスイムガイドのダイスケさんがイルカに関する情報を沢山お話ししてくださり、
常にイルカがあそこにいる!ということも教えてくれたので泳ぐまでの時間も楽しむことができました。
さらに冬季限定でクジラも運良く遭遇することができ、ホエールウォッチングもでき一石二鳥の感動を味わうことができました!
ドルフィンスイムツアーは他にもあるかもしれませんが、イルカに関する知識やサポート、スタッフさんの感じの良さ、全てにおいて満足できるツアーでした!!またハワイに行く機会があればお願いしたいです(^^)
The staff members and, of course, the dolphins were all amazing! On the day we were taken care of, there were an incredible number of dolphins, and we even saw whales. They mentioned that it’s not always like this, but for dolphin lovers and ocean enthusiasts, it’s a dream optional tour!!
スタッフの方々や、もちろんイルカも、どれを取っても最高でした!
お世話になった日はイルカがものすごい数でクジラも見れて、毎回こんな感じとは思わないで下さいねーとおっしゃってましたが…イルカ好き、海好きには夢のようなオプショナルツアーです!!
