Hawaii Island Wild Dolphin Tour 夏威夷島野生海豚之旅

Reviewed by: Jason Cheng

I was very satisfied with this trip. The tour guide was very friendly, and despite my initial fear of water, the guide's efforts allowed me to enjoy the dolphin tour up close. I highly recommend this trip!!

此次的行程非常滿意,導遊人員非常親切,原本怕水的我,因導遊非盡力的導引之下,也讓我能近距離的享受海豚之旅。 此行程大大大推!!

プライベートチャーター ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー!GoProレンタルあり<午前/日本語ガイド>

I got to play with wild dolphins! 野生のイルカに遊んでもらいました!

Reviewed by: HIROKO

In the past, I watched a program where the hosts discovered and introduced the wonders of a certain world while answering quizzes. I saw footage of former synchronized swimmer Mikako Kotani swimming freely with dolphins, and I dreamed of swimming with dolphins like that. It was truly a happy time when that dream came true!

I was told not to touch them, but the dolphins came so close that it felt like they were about to bump into me. They swam alongside me, followed behind in a group, and suddenly one appeared right beneath me. I had so much fun playing with the dolphins! (*^^*)

The dolphins on the Big Island of Hawaii are said to be friendlier than those on other islands and will come close to you. So, if you're going to do a dolphin swim, I highly recommend the Big Island!

Also, I was lucky enough to see a manta ray! That seemed to be a stroke of luck. The tour guides were also dedicated to helping us find dolphins and ensuring we had a great time.

You can borrow a wetsuit, which is enough to keep you afloat, but if you're feeling anxious, you can also borrow a floating pole (a cylindrical float), so even if you're not a strong swimmer, you'll be fine. There was even a little boy, about three years old, who was entering the water with the guide's support. (Little ones must wear life jackets.)

When I posted about it on Facebook, someone immediately expressed interest in going, so I recommended this tour. When we come back to the Big Island, we will definitely participate in this tour again! Thank you so much! (*^^*)

昔、某世界のふしぎを発見・紹介しながら出演者がクイズに答える番組で、元シンクロ選手の小谷実可子さんがイルカと自由に泳いでる映像を観て、イルカと泳ぐことに憧れていました。
あんな風にイルカと泳げたらいいな、と思っていた状況が実現して、本当に幸せな時間でした!
触っちゃいけないと言われてましたが、イルカの方からぶつかりそうなくらい近くまで寄ってきて、横に並んで泳いだり、群れの後ろについて泳いだり、突然イルカが私の下から現れたりして、イルカに遊んでもらえて本当に楽しかったです(*^^*)
ハワイ島のイルカは他の島より人懐っこく、近くまで来てくれるそうです。なので、ドルフィンスイムをするなら、ハワイ島が一番オススメ!!
あと、ラッキーなことにマンタも観れました!それは運が良かったみたいです。
ツアーガイドの皆さんもイルカを探したり、先回りしたり、楽しめるように尽力してくださってました。
ウェットスーツを借りるので、それだけでも十分浮けますが、不安な人はフローティングポール(筒状の浮き具)を借りられるので泳ぎが得意でなくても大丈夫です。3歳くらいの男の子も、ガイドさんに支えてもらいながら海に入ってました。(ちっちゃい子はライフジャケット着用)
Facebookにあげたら、早速行きたい!という人がいたので、ここのツアーをオススメしました。
私達もまたハワイ島に来る時は、このツアーに参加します!
ありがとうございました!(*^^*)

  • 運良く観れたマンタ。ハワイ島のマンタはみんな名前がついてるそうです。

Ocean Encounters Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Sunset & Moonlight Cruise from Kona

Very good experience

Reviewed by: Matt

My wife and I had a good experience. The boat was comfortable although some people got seasick since it was a fairly choppy sea. I'd recommend taking Dramamine before going. The appetizers were just bagged snacks and cans of juice and pop. We ended up seeing about eight manta rays in the water.

Excellent experience and well worth the money. The crew was friendly and helpful. I would not recommend this experience for “timid” children but, if your kid is into new things and not afraid of the ocean, this is an experience they will remember forever! It was amazing to see how well all the boat crews worked together to ensure everyone enjoyed a fantastic show

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>

Mantas keep coming one after another! マンタが次から次へ来てくれる!

Reviewed by: のんのろ

I love the ocean, and I have had experiences swimming with turtles and dolphins while snorkeling in various places. Unfortunately, I can't dive because of my hearing issues. However, manta rays don't usually come close to the surface. I had given up on seeing them up close, but on this tour, they kept coming one after another! ♡

We surrounded the light with our snorkeling gear and observed them. It felt more like the manta rays were coming to eat the plankton gathered around the light rather than swimming alongside us. Still, they came so close that I had to dodge them! I could see right into their bellies.

There were probably 6 to 7 manta rays that kept circling around endlessly. I might have been lucky, but I really enjoyed it! You should definitely bring a GoPro. Also, I wasn't cold at all on the boat. However, since many Japanese people are sensitive to the cold, it might be a good idea to bring a towel or a sweatshirt just in case.

私は海が大好きで、いろいろなところでシュノーケリングをすることで亀やイルカと泳いだ経験はありました。耳が悪いので、ダイビングをすることができません。でも、マンタはなかなか水面までは来てくれません。なので、マンタをまじかで見ることは諦めていましたが、このツアーだと、次から次へと遊びに来てくれます♡
ライトの近くを囲んでシュノーケリルをつけて観察する感じで、一緒に泳ぐというよりは、マンタがライトに集まって来たプランクトンを食べに来てくれるという感じでした。それでも、マンタが自分でぶつかってくるほど近くに来てくれたので、こちらが避けないとならないほどでした。
マンタのお腹の中までよく見えます。
多分6-7枚のマンタがエンドレスで順繰り廻って来てくれる感じでした。運が良かったのかもしれないですが本当に楽しめました!
Go proは絶対持って行くべきです。
あと、船の上では私は全く寒くなかったです。
ただ、日本人は寒がりな人が多いので、タオルを呼びで1枚持って行く、もしくはトレーナーなどを持って行ってもいいのかもしれません。

I truly experienced the spiritual awe of the ocean on the Big Island. On the way to the encounter spot, I also came across dolphins and whales. I think this is something you absolutely must experience when you visit the Big Island.

Kealakekua Bay Guided Kayak & Captain Cook Snorkel Tour - Adventures In Paradise

Fantastic experience

Reviewed by: Jason, Bindi, Linda

Had a fantastic time. Kayak was good fun and not overly strenuous. Had a couple of stops along the way to catch our breath before we arrived at the monument. Snorkel was amazing with a huge variety of fish on display at close quarters. A pod of spinner dolphins arrived as we were leaving. Spent an hour snorkeling which gave us plenty of time to look around.
Then a paddle back again afterwards.
Our guide Patrick was very knowledgeable and safety conscious. He looked after us extremely well.
Very good value for the money.

Toshi's guidance was wonderful. Toshiさんのガイドが素晴らしかったです。

Reviewed by: Arigato

When we reached the canyon I had been most looking forward to, I was moved by the guide's thoughtful gesture of lowering his voice to let us soak in the scenery quietly. Watching the pilot from behind the cockpit made me think how wonderful it is to be a pilot! It was a very rare experience to actually see the lava's gooey texture. I'm glad my mother, who was scared of helicopters, was able to ride comfortably. Above all, Toshi's love for the Big Island really came through. I want to work hard in Tokyo and return to the Big Island! Thank you very much for this experience.

一番見たかった渓谷に差し掛かった時に、ガイドの声を落として静かに景色に浸らせてくれる心配りに、景色と共に感動でした。操縦席を後ろから見ていてパイロットて素敵だなぁと思いましたw溶岩のドロドロさも目視出来てとても貴重な体験でした。ヘリコプターを怖がっていた母も安心して乗っていられたようで良かったです。何よりbig Island へのtoshiさんの愛がとてもよく伝わりました。又東京で頑張って働いてbig islandに帰りたいです!この度はありがとうございました。

This was the most enjoyable tour I've ever experienced for activities on the Big Island. I was moved by the sight of manta rays doing backflips underwater and sucking in plankton up close.

It was an amazing experience. すごい体験でした

Reviewed by: みのさん

You can see manta rays really up close. The manta rays illuminated by blue light cross right in front of you over and over again. This was a wonderful experience. Alicia, who speaks Japanese well, explained everything clearly, so both my middle school daughter and us in our late forties enjoyed it without any worries.

As a note, if you're not confident in swimming, don't hesitate to borrow a life jacket (free of charge). If you check the water temperature and feel it's even a little cold, you should rent a wetsuit for a fee. If you're prone to seasickness, be sure to take motion sickness medication.

We zoomed to the spot where the manta rays are located by boat, and since we were in the night sea for 40 minutes, it was quite chilly in mid-June. They don't provide a tutorial on how to use the snorkel, so if it's your first time, it's better to ask how to use it once you receive it. They will talk about not touching the manta rays and safety precautions before entering the water, so make sure to follow those instructions.

After starting the snorkeling, they check on you multiple times asking, "Are you okay?" So if you feel uncomfortable, it's better to get back on the boat. It's a wonderful experience, so feel free to ask for assistance, and enjoy it while considering your own stamina and condition.

マンタが本当にすぐ近くで見られます。青い光に照らされたマンタが目の前を何度も何度も横切ります。
これは素晴らしい経験でした。
日本語の上手なアリシアちゃんがきちんと説明をしてくれたので、中学生の娘もアラフィフの私たちもなんの不安もなく楽しめました。
注意点としては、泳ぎに自信がないなら迷わずライフジャケット(無料)を借りること。水温を確認して少しでも冷たいと思ったら有料のウェットスーツは借りること。船酔いの恐れがある人は酔い止めを必ず飲むこと
マンタのいるスポットまでボートで飛ばしますし、40分間夜の海に浸っているので、6月半ばではかなり冷えました。
シュノーケルの使い方は講習的なことはやってくれません。初体験の方は渡されたらどう使うかを聞いたほうが良いです。
海に入る前にマンタを触らないことや態勢の注意点を話してくれるのできちんと守りましょう。
シュノーケルを始めた後、途中で「大丈夫?」と何度も声かけしてくれるので、辛いと思ったらボートに上がったほうが良いです。
せっかくの素敵な体験です。声をかければ対応してくれるので、自分の体力や体調と相談しながら楽しんでください。

It was just as rumored. ほんとうわさ通りでした

Reviewed by: フェミちゃん

Wow, I was surprised when a real manta ray came towards me with its mouth open! It gracefully swam by, flipping over to show its white belly. There were fish similar to horse mackerel swimming right next to me, and the water was so clear that I could see snake-like fish slithering along the seabed. I definitely recommend enjoying the natural beauty of the Big Island of Hawaii. When a manta ray appears, you should jump in the water and stay underwater for about 30 minutes in a horizontal position. There are occasionally cold currents, so it's better to rent a wetsuit. I think it would be tough to participate on a full stomach since the boat sways when it stops.

いゃぁ〜、本物のマンタが口を開けてこっちに向かって来たときにはビックリしました‼️ (口は閉じれるのか?)目の前で体を反転させ腹の白い部分を見せて、優雅に泳いでました。
鯵に似た魚もすぐ側を泳いでいて、海底では海へびのような魚もニョロニョロしているのがわかるくらいの透明度が高い海です。
ハワイ島の自然を是非楽しんでほしいですね。
マンタが現れたら入水し、30分は水中でケノビ状態でいます。時たま冷たい流れがあるので、ウエットスーツは借りた方がいいです。 停船すると波でゆれるので、お腹いっぱいで参加するのはキツイと思います。

Reviewed by: ノンさん

With the help of the friendly Daisuke and Kevin, as well as the slightly shy but cheerful captain, we headed out to sea! At first, I was a bit nervous, but when we encountered dolphins, my excitement grew more and more. Watching Daisuke swim joyfully with the dolphins made me want to join in, but since I couldn't dive, it was impossible. However, I was truly moved to see the dolphins up close. Although I shouldn't reach out to touch them, they were so close that it felt like I could. The fun time flew by in an instant. The anxiety I felt before participating turned into smiles.

気さくでフレンドリーなダイスケさんやケビンさん、少しシャイだけれども陽気な船長さんに助けていただきながら海にGO!!
初めは少し、恐々でしたがイルカに遭遇しどんどんテンションも上がりました
楽しくイルカと泳ぐダイスケさんを見ていると自分も一緒に泳ぎたくなりますが…潜れないので無理でした。でもとても近くで見るイルカちゃんには、とても感動しました。手を伸ばして触ってはいけないのですが、触れそうなほど近くにイルカちゃんがいました。楽しい時間は、あっという間でした。参加する前の不安は、笑顔に変わっていました。

Honestly, I didn't expect to see so many dolphins. On this day, we were lucky and encountered a pod of dolphins right after we set sail. My wife was nervous about swimming, but the guide took the time to teach each person how to swim, which made her feel at ease to participate in the tour. Above all, we could feel the love that our guide, Daisuke, had for the dolphins. Thanks to him, we were able to swim with the dolphins together as a couple, creating the best memories. Thank you very much.

正直、こんなにもイルカに会えるとは思っていませんでした。この日はタイミングが良く、出港してすぐにイルカの群れと会う事ができました。
泳ぎに不安だった妻でしたが苦手な人に対して1人1人に泳ぎ方を教えてくれて、安心してツアーに参加する事ができました。
何よりもガイドのダイスケさんのイルカに対する愛を感じました。そのお陰で夫婦でイルカと一緒に泳ぐ事ができ最高の思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。

I participated in this tour for my honeymoon trip. There were other similar tours available, but I chose this one for three reasons: 1. a 95% chance of encountering dolphins, 2. many repeat customers, and most importantly, 3. it's suitable even for those who are not good swimmers!

If you're someone who wants to see dolphins but is a bit hesitant about swimming, I highly recommend this tour!

Even for someone like me who struggles with swimming, the guide provided excellent support, allowing me to enjoy the experience without worry. It was truly fun!

The guide was very knowledgeable about dolphins, and you could really feel the connection they had with them. I couldn't help but think that they might have been a dolphin in a past life! (laughs)

泳ぎが苦手な私でも、安心して楽しめるようにガイドさんがしっかりフォローして下さって、本当に楽しかったです!

Manta Dance マンタ乱舞

Reviewed by: ちゃる

During my stay on the Big Island this time, I had to change my original plans due to the eruption of Kilauea volcano, but the manta night snorkeling I was able to fit in became my best memory.

The boat moves forward, chasing the sunset sinking into the horizon from the harbor. It's a large rubber boat, so we straddle the edge and enjoy the feeling of being on a banana boat. After about 10 minutes, we arrive at the snorkeling point.

There is a bright light installed under a large surfboard-shaped float, and while holding on, we waited… and after about 4 or 5 minutes, they came! Mantas started gathering around us! They were gracefully gliding and feeding right in front of us. We had to be careful not to bump into them as they were so close that we could see inside their mouths and gills clearly.

There were nearly 10 individuals. Out of the 40 minutes we spent underwater, 30 minutes were filled with a manta ballet show. I have seen mantas while diving before, but the proximity and density were on a completely different level. It was truly a wonderful experience. I highly recommend it!

今回のハワイ島滞在は、キラウエア火山の噴火で当初の予定を変更せざるおえなかったのですが、開いた時間に入れたマンタナイトシュノーケリングが一番の思い出になりました。
港から水平線に沈むサンセットを追いかけるように船は進みます。大きなゴムボートなので船縁にまたがり、バナナボート気分を楽しむこと10分程でポイントに着きます。
大きなサーフボード状の浮きの裏に明るいライトが設置してあり、つかまりながら待っていると…4,5分程で来ました来ましたマンタが集まってきました!
目の前でくるりくるりと舞いながら補食していました。あまりにも近くでマンタにぶつからないように注意が必要なほどで、口の中やエラの中までしっかり見えました。
個体数は10枚近くでしょうか。水中にいた40分のうち30分はマンタ乱舞ショーでした。
今までダイビングでマンタを見た事もありますが、近さと密度が段違いです。本当に良い経験になりました。オススメです!

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>

Manta is amazing, but be careful of the cold! マンタ最高、寒さに注意!

Reviewed by: じゅん

The boat took off at an incredible speed, and I experienced a thrill that really got my adrenaline pumping. When we arrived at the spot, two manta rays swam right below us, circling for about 45 minutes—it was amazing!
However, don't underestimate the Hawaiian nights!
With wet bodies and the wind from the boat, the temperature dropped as the sun set, making the return trip very cold!
If you're participating, definitely bring something to keep warm!
It was a tour that my 75-year-old mother could also join.

出発してボートはすごいスピードで、スリルを味わい、テンションが、上がりました。ポイント到着して、マンタが2枚がすぐに私たちの下でグルグルと回ってくれて、約45分間最高でしたよ!
でも、夜のハワイを甘くみてはいけない!
濡れた体にボートの風、太陽が沈んで気温も下がり、帰りは非常に寒い!
参加される方は羽織る物を絶対に持って行きましょう!
75歳の母も参加できるツアーでした。

Even those who were young in the past had a great time. 昔若かった人たちも、とっても楽しみました

Reviewed by: 昔若かった人たち

Two people in their 60s who don't usually exercise. Although I felt relieved to see other participants around the same age, the first time entering the water was tough and terrifying, and I quickly got back on the boat. However, from the second time on, I leaned on a float and drifted around, and with the guide's support, I was able to see many dolphins. It was really fun!

The guide named us after people who were young long ago. I received plenty of support and had a great time, for which I am grateful. The female captain also gave us lots of encouragement.

普段運動してない60代2人。同世代と思われる参加者もあって一安心したものの、1回目の入水は、しんどい、溺れる‥‥恐怖で早々にボートに上がりましたが、2回目からは浮き棒に寄りかかってプカプカと漂い、ガイドさんのフォローを得てイルカさんをたくさん見る事が出来ました。本当に楽しかった!!
昔若かった人達とは、当日のガイドさんからのネーミング。十分フォローして楽しませて頂いて、感謝。女性の船長さんからも沢山沢山エールをいただきました。

Dolphin-chan is nearby☆☆☆ イルカちゃんが近くに☆☆☆

Reviewed by: とらひめらむ

The dolphins were so close and the ocean was beautiful, far beyond what I experienced on the dolphin tour in Oahu. On this day, I was lucky enough to see both manta rays and tiger sharks☆ I could also hear the dolphins' voices, making it my best memory from the Big Island. Thank you so much, Daisuke and Hitomi (^ ^)

オアフ島のイルカツアーと比べものにならないくらいイルカちゃんが近くて海も綺麗でした。
この日は運がよくマンタもタイガーシャークも見れました☆
イルカちゃんの声も聞けてハワイ島での一番の思い出になりました。
ダイスケさん、ひとみさん本当にありがとうございました(^ ^)

Manta's somersault マンタの宙返り

Reviewed by: みなっち

This was my first experience like this. Being rocked by the boat while watching the sunset and heading to a spot where manta rays are found was incredible. As it got darker and the sun set, I was a bit worried about the scary dark color of the sea, but when we arrived at the manta ray spot, there were many other tour boats with lights, so it was fine. Once we got into the water, after a while, the manta rays came and performed flips right next to us, providing an amazing experience. I definitely want to go see the manta rays again.

こんな体験は初めてです。船にゆられて、夕日を見ながらマンタのいる場所まで行くなんて。だんだん暗くなって夕日が落ちると怖い暗い海の色にちょっと心配でしたが、マンタの場所に来ると他のツアーの船も一杯で明かりもあったので大丈夫でした。そして海に入ると暫くしたら、マンタがやってきて何度も何度もスレスレに宙返りをしながらサービス満点でした。またマンタに会いに行きたいと思いました

Thank you for participating in the manta tour. We are all very happy that you were able to experience something that is hard to come by in Japan. When you visit Oahu again, we also have tours such as the Dolphin Middle School and University, so we look forward to seeing you again.

Big Island Manta Ray Night Snorkel Tour Adventure on a Hawaiian Sailing Canoe

Unforgettable and once-in-a-lifetime

Reviewed by: Brett

This was an unforgettable once-in-a-a-lifetime experience! Definitely recommend swimming with the manta rays. It will be one of the most majestic experiences of wildlife you will ever have. A note we were unaware of: it seems essentially all ventures to swim with the mantas leave from a similar dock area and set anchor at essentially the same spot in the water--which is just a few hundred yards out from the dock.

The manta ray tour on the Big Island of Hawaii is fun! ハワイ島マンタツアーは楽しい!

Reviewed by: マジシャンK

I was moved when I saw the manta ray right in front of me. However, holding onto the glass boat and floating in the sea for a long time was quite tiring. It gets pretty cold at night. It's definitely better to rent a wetsuit, and when you return to the boat and take off the wetsuit, it gets quite chilly, so having a 100 yen store raincoat or a Uniqlo down jacket would be helpful.

マンタを目の前で見たときは感動しました。ただ、グラスボートにつかまって
ずっと海に浮いてるのも結構疲れた。夜なので結構寒いです。ウエットスーツは必ず借りた方が良いし船に戻ってウエットスーツを脱ぐとかなり冷えるので
100均のレインコート、ユニクロのダウン等があると助かります

Thank you for participating.
We are very pleased to hear that you were moved by seeing the manta rays in person.
Hawaii can get chilly at night, so we recommend that all participants bring warm clothing.
Thank you for your advice!

ご参加いただきありがとうございます。
マンタを実際に見られて感動されたとのお声をいただき、大変嬉しく思います。
ハワイは夜になると冷えてきますので、ご参加者の皆様には防寒具をお持ちになることをお勧めします。

Unforgettable trip!

Reviewed by: Greg

Had an amazing time on the manta ray snorkel. Definitely worth it. The manta rays get within inches from you, and the experience is unlike anything else. Crew and boat were also awesome. Ended up loving the snorkeling experience so much we went out on a day trip a day later which was also amazing!
