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＞

The weather is something else! なにぶん天気がね！

Reviewed by: ピーベリープルメリア

Even though it's always summer in Hawaii, we found ourselves in the middle of winter, and unfortunately, it was cold and rainy. We suited up in wetsuits and headed out into the waves, which were quite rough! From a Japanese perspective, it was surprising to start the tour under such bad weather conditions.

As expected, my wife, who isn't very confident in her physical strength, quickly returned to the boat due to the cold and the waves. I was worried about her, and I ended up slipping on the deck and injuring my side. We only managed to spot two manta rays near the ocean floor, which left us a bit disappointed on our first day in Hawaii.

I had joined the tour believing the reviews that said it would be fine even without understanding English, but I think it would be safer to go with a Japanese-speaking tour, even if it costs a bit more. However, I did find that the catamaran had less rocking than expected, so I hope to try again under better conditions.

常夏のハワイ、とは言え真冬おまけに生憎の雨で寒い中、屋根ひとつないところでウェットスーツに身を包み沖へ出るとかなりのうねりが！
われわれ日本人の感覚からすれば、こんな、悪天候の時に出航するのかと思ってしまう条件の中でのスタートとなりました。
案の定寒さと、うねりにより体力に自信のない女房は早々に船上に。
心配で同行した私も、デッキで滑り転倒して脇腹を痛める始末。
肝心のマンタは海の底辺りに２尾だけ現れたのを確認できたのみで、ハワイ島初日にすこしがっかりのツアーでした。
英語がわからなくても、勢いで大丈夫っていった書き込みを信じての参加でしたが、やはり費用が割高でも日本語でのツアーの方が安全面のためにも良いのではと思います。
ただ、双胴船のため、揺れは少ない方だと思いました、好条件の時ににリベンジしたいと思います。

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

A comfortable cruise and the clear blue sea are the best!! 快適なクルーズと青く澄んだ海が最高！！

Reviewed by: さかなちゃん

It was my first time on the Big Island and my first snorkeling tour. There were only our family and one other group of Japanese people. The check-in and explanations were all in English, but there were also Japanese instructions, and the staff was kind, so I felt secure participating. Since it was a morning cruise, we were first served delicious bread and fruit, and before we knew it, we arrived at the snorkeling spot. The beautiful bay had calm waves, and we saw plenty of fish, which made us very satisfied! There were also plenty of floatation devices, so we could enter the water without any worries.

For lunch, we had handmade hamburgers from the staff, and we got to make our own burgers. They were delicious! The boat also had a restroom, which was reassuring. It was a wonderful snorkeling experience where we could fully enjoy the great nature of the Big Island.

初めてのハワイ島で初めてのシュノーケリングツアーでした。日本人は私たち家族ともう１組だけ・・・。受付や説明はすべて英語ですが、日本語の注意書きもあり、スタッフが親切なので安心して参加できました。モーニングクルーズなのでまずおいしいパンやフルーツが出てきて、あっという間にポイントに到着。美しい湾で波も穏やか、魚もたくさん見られて大満足！！浮き輪や浮き具なども豊富なので、不安なく海に入れます。
　昼食はスタッフ手作りのハンバーグで、自分でハンバーガーを作ります。美味しかったー！！船にはトイレもついていて安心。ハワイ島の大自然を満喫できる、素敵なシュノーケリングでした。

Kona Manta Ray Snorkel & Night Dive Tour at Keauhou Bay - Sea Paradise

Sunset Cruise and Manta Ray Night Snorkel

Reviewed by: Evar

My most favorite experience on Big Island with Sea Paradise! A great crew and we were taken care of from start to finish. You start by checking in at the shopping center, drive 5 minutes to Keauhou Bay to park your vehicle, get fitted for your wet suit, and get on the boat. The sunset on along the Kona Coast was beautiful. The crew were extremely helpful, very knowledgeable about the history of the manta rays, humorous and went out of their way to make sure we spent the most time with the manta rays. We were one of the first boats in and last to leave. Plus, we were given fresh pineapple, juices/sodas and hot chocolate.
I do not know how to swim but the guides took extra care to make sure I made it on and off the boat with flotation devices. I would definitely recommend Sea Paradise!

If you're unlucky, it can turn into the worst tour. 運が悪いと最悪のツアーに

Reviewed by: hedgehog

I held onto the blue glowing board, but there were too many people clinging to one board, making it cramped. The manta ray that appeared was just one, far away. The boat and the water were both very choppy, causing many people to feel seasick. On the way back, it was extremely cold, and some were vomiting, creating a hellish scene. It felt like a waste of over 30,000 yen for two people, making it the worst tour I've participated in so far (though I understand it's nature, so it's unavoidable).

If you don't see anything, you can participate for free the next day, but I had booked a different tour for the following day and couldn't join (I suspect most people will be in the same situation). I'm also doubtful if the right to participate for free again is valid for a few years later; if not, this is truly a terrible tour. For those who participate, please make sure to take motion sickness medication and be prepared for the possibility that you might not see anything.

青く光るボードにつかまって見るのですが、一つのボードにつかまる人数が多すぎて窮屈でした。そして現れたマンタは遠くの方に1匹だけ。ボート上も海の中も揺れが激しく、酔う人多数。帰りはとても寒く、吐く人もいて、地獄絵図でした。2人で3万円以上払ってこれかよという感じで、これまで参加したツアーで最悪のものとなりました（自然相手なので仕方ありませんが）。

見れなかった場合、翌日も無料で参加できるということですが、翌日は別のツアーを申し込んでおり参加できませんでした（ほとんどの方がそうなるのでは）。無料で再度参加の権利は数年後でも有効なのか疑問ですが、そうでないとしたら本当にひどいツアーです。参加する方は、必ず酔い止めを飲んで、見れない可能性があると覚悟して参加してください。

I was disappointed that there wasn't a Japanese pilot. Also, the two people sitting in front of me were wearing beige and red tops with shorts, which caused those colors to reflect on the glass. It was the worst because I couldn't take a photo with my smartphone without those colors showing up. For those participating, it's best to wear longer pants, at least knee-length, in black, and also a black top.

A highly satisfying tour. 大満足のツアー

Reviewed by: 家族連れ

This was my second time on a dolphin swimming tour in Hawaii, but the experience on the Big Island far surpassed my previous one. Following the guide's instructions, a pod of about 50 dolphins came close to us repeatedly. The location of the dolphins changes daily, and on the day we participated, the guide had confirmed in advance that they were near the harbor. Therefore, we didn't have to search for them by boat.

We encountered the dolphins shortly after departing from the harbor, allowing us to swim with them for a long time, even after other boats had left. I could clearly hear the dolphins' calls underwater.

Both the guide and the boat captain were very proficient in Japanese, so there was no language barrier. They provided wetsuits, fins, and masks, making it enjoyable even for those who are not confident swimmers. Our third grader had a great time as well.

I highly recommend this experience if you visit the Big Island.

ハワイでのイルカと泳ぐツアーは2回目でしたが、ここハワイ島での体験は前回の経験をはるかに凌駕する素晴らしいものでした。
ガイドさんの教えの通りにしていると、約50頭の群れが何度も何度も近くへ寄って来てくれました。毎日イルカのいる場所は変わるそうで、私たちが参加した日は、ハーバーから近いところにイルカがいることをガイドさんが事前に確認してくれていました。そのため、ボートでイルカを捜しまわることもありませんでした。
ハーバーを出港してあっという間にイルカに遭遇出来たため、そこから時間一杯まで、他のボートがいなくなってもたっぷりイルカと泳がせていただけました。イルカの鳴き声も水中でしっかり聞こえました。
ガイドさん、ボートのキャプテン共に日本語が大変お上手なため、言葉の心配はありませんし、ウェットスーツとフィン、マスクなど一式貸してもらえるので、泳ぎが苦手な方でも十分楽しめると思います。わが家の小学3年生も十分enjoyしていました。
ハワイ島を訪れた際には、ぜひ、経験されることをおすすめします。

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

Manta Ray Night Snorkel

Reviewed by: D & L Williams

For those who love the water and its fascinating creatures, we highly recommend this activity aboard the Hawaiian Sailing Canoe. The canoe is a modern replica seating a limited number of passengers, so the skipper Dave knew our names immediately. But much like going to a "modern" zoo, you may see what you're looking for the first time out but you may not. Our first night snorkel was at 8:30pm, and while the groups before and after us had a grand "show" we were skunked. But Dave said we could keep coming back (for free!) until we sighted the mantas. The next night at 9:30pm we were in luck, and were treated to a 45 minute water ballet by two mantas that glided and turned just inches beneath our illuminated surfboard. For optimum warmth bring your own full-length wetsuit instead of using their wetsuit tops.

There are issues with safety considerations. 安全配慮に問題あり

Reviewed by: まおさん

It's unbelievable that, like other tour companies, they do not require life jackets at night on the sea. The return trip is completely in darkness. As someone with a boating license, I must say that if something were to happen, the staff alone would not be able to rescue all participants. I raise this alarm before any precious lives are lost. The boat's rocking is also severe, so pregnant women should refrain from participating. Since it's cold in December, warm drinks would have been better on board. I did see manta rays, and aside from that, I think it was good.

他の催行会社にも言えることですが、信じられない事に夜間の海でライフジャケットを着用させません。復路は全くの暗闇です。船舶免許保持者から言わせてもらうと、万一の事が有ればスタッフだけでは全ての参加者の人命救助できないでしょう。尊い犠牲が出る前に警鐘を鳴らさせていただきます。ボートの揺れも激しいので妊婦は参加見合わせすべきですね。１２月の寒い時期ですので船上では暖かい飲み物の方が良かったとおもいます。マンタも見れましたし、それ以外は良いと思います。

A man who loves dolphins and is loved by dolphins! Yes, he is—! イルカを愛し、イルカに愛された男！そう、彼こそはー！

Reviewed by: mas myk

Daisuke, our guide, was wonderful with his attentiveness.

The weather was drizzly and chilly, not typical for Hawaii, but we were able to see plenty of dolphins! We even got to see them jump, which was very satisfying.

I brought my iPhone in a waterproof case, but it didn't respond to swipes underwater. I was advised to start recording video on the boat, and when I tried that, it worked well.

While I was playing with the dolphins, I got a bit seasick (it's better to take motion sickness medication), but everyone was kind and helped me calm down.

According to Daisuke, "I am confident that we can get you closer to the dolphins than anyone else. If we couldn't see them, I believe other companies' boats wouldn't be able to either." His love for dolphins and constant attentiveness seem to help him know the best spots and share information with others.

If there’s a next time, I would definitely love to join again.

ガイド(インストラクター?)のダイスケさんの気配りが素晴らしかったです。

天候は小雨で肌寒くハワイらしくない日でしたが、イルカちゃん(ダイスケさん風)は沢山見れました！ジャンプ姿も見れて、大満足でした。

iPhoneを防水カバーに入れて持って行きましたが、海の中ではスワイプが反応しません。"船の上で動画を始めた状態にすると良いですよ"と言われたので実践したところ、上手くいきました^ ^

イルカたちと戯れている間、私は途中で波酔いしてしまいました(酔い止めは飲んでおいた方が良いです)が、皆さんが優しく対応して下さり気分を落ち着かせる事が出来ました。

ダイスケさん曰く、"どこよりも、イルカちゃんに会わせてあげる自信があります。僕たちがイルカちゃん達に会えなかったら、他の会社さんの船も絶対会えてないと思います。"との事。イルカを愛し、いつも気遣いをしているからこそ、遭遇ポイントも分かるし、他社の方々とも情報共有出来ているようです。

次回があれば、是非またご厄介になりたいと思います。

A precious experience swimming with wild dolphins! 自然のイルカと泳げる貴重な体験！

Reviewed by: MASA&GRIM

I participated with my wife. The reason we chose this activity, as mentioned in the reviews, is that the guides (Daisuke and Ryo) genuinely care for and love the dolphins.

After actually participating, I felt even more that they truly love dolphins from the bottom of their hearts. We encountered dolphins multiple times and were able to swim with them. It was moving to see them swimming comfortably in the natural sea, including family dolphins and baby dolphins. We could also hear their voices.

On our way back to the port, we encountered a manta ray, and although it wasn't included in the tour, we were given the opportunity to swim with it. Thank you so much!!

When we returned to the port, I strongly felt the desire to protect the natural dolphins. I definitely want to participate again next year!

妻と参加させて頂きました。今回このアクティビティを選んだ理由はリビューにも記載されている通り、ガイドの方(ダイスケさんリョウさん)が心からイルカのことを大切に思い愛されているからでした。

実際参加してみたところ、リビューの内容以上に心身からイルカのことが好きなんだな、と感じました。
何回もイルカとも遭遇し一緒に泳ぐことができました。家族のイルカ、
子供のイルカ等、自然の海を心地よく泳いでいる姿に感動です。
イルカの声も聞くことができました。
港に戻る際はマンタに遭遇し、ツアーの内容には含まれていませんでしたが一緒に泳ぐ機会を与えて頂きました。

Every time I come to the Big Island, I participate in the Fair Wind snorkeling tour. I usually go in the morning, but this time I joined in the afternoon for the first time. Since lunch is not included, I had a meal before heading out.

While the volcano and star tours are great, I really want everyone to experience the beauty of the ocean around the Big Island. At Captain Cook's Point, there are more fish than anywhere else, even more than at Hanauma Bay on Oahu. This time, we were the only Japanese participants. My elderly father doesn't dive, but he always enjoys the cruise and feels satisfied.

When we arrived at the port, it was just in time for the sunset, and we enjoyed watching it for a bit after getting off the boat.

It's only about a 15-minute drive from Kona, where we're staying, to the port, so it's very convenient.

The weather was nice, and it felt great!

I was worried about seasickness, but I took some motion sickness medication and it seemed to work, so I was fine. The explanations were also provided in Japanese, so there were no problems at all. However, even when we arrived at the spot, it took a while for the manta rays to appear, and we waited on the boat for quite some time. Finally, we got the go-ahead to enter the water and waited for the manta rays to come. Soon, one manta ray passed by so close that I could almost touch it. It was thrilling.

I was able to meet a lot of dolphins. たくさんのイルカに会えました

Reviewed by: ミカコ

When we gathered, the guide mentioned that on the same tour a few days prior, they hadn't encountered any dolphins, which made me a bit worried. However, we were lucky to see many dolphins!

After heading out to sea, I learned that usually, they swim slowly towards where the dolphins are, but that day, there were unusually many dolphins coming towards us.

While we were fortunate, I believe it was also thanks to the guide who chose that location. The guide decides where to wait for the dolphins.

The boat ride took about 30 to 40 minutes, but the guide shared various stories about the Big Island, dolphins, and whales, making the journey enjoyable. It was also nice that it wasn't a large group tour, but rather a small one. Thank you very much.

集合したときガイドさんに、私が参加した数日前の同じツアーでは全くイルカに出会えなかったと聞いて心配になりましたが、運よくたくさんのイルカに会えました。
沖にでてからも、いつもはイルカのいるほうへ少しずつ泳いで移動するそうですが、その日はいつになくたくさんのイルカが来てくれてたそうで、イルカのほうから寄ってきてくれる感じでした。

運もよかったですが、その場所を選んでくれたガイドさんのおかげでもあると思います。どのあたりでイルカを待つかはガイドさんの判断だそうです。

船での移動は30～40分ほどありましたが、ガイドさんもハワイ島やイルカやクジラのいろんな話をしてくれたので、移動中も楽しく過ごせました。一度に大勢参加するツアーではなく少人数でのツアーだったのもよかったです。

Three manta rays appeared and circled around us, which was exciting. Two family members got seasick and seemed to need motion sickness medication. The boat was fast, and since it was nighttime, it was quite a unique experience. There was no explanation for snorkeling, so those who are not accustomed to it might panic, especially since it was in the pitch dark sea, and there were elderly people who seemed to be in distress. It might be worth considering this more carefully. I was fine since I am a diver, but for those who are not familiar with marine sports, the spray from the boat constantly hitting their faces could be tough. After it was over, despite being cold, we were handed cold bottled water. The Japanese staff were cheerful and very kind, and I enjoyed our conversations. At the end, there was an explanation about tips, and I had prepared some, but when I got off the boat and changed, there were no staff left as they had already left for the next tour. This meant I had to prepare the tip while feeling cold and drenched, which was a bit challenging considering I had a lot of luggage.

It was a tour that my husband, who loves the ocean and animals, had been longing for. The large rubber boat we boarded just before it got dark was thrilling, almost making us feel like we would be thrown off due to the speed and waves, but we all arrived at our destination while squealing with excitement. We quickly grabbed onto a long float and began observing the mantas. As we floated still, mantas came one after another, starting to spin while opening their large mouths incredibly close to us. I had never seen such a sight! It was breathtaking. While waiting patiently for the mantas, I felt a bit of chill, but when they came close, I forgot the cold and was completely captivated. I think this is definitely an experience you should have when visiting the Big Island of Hawaii.

海と動物が好きな夫が切望していたツアーでした。暗くなる直前に乗り込んだ大型ゴムボートはスピードと波で振り落とされそうなほどスリリングでしたが、乗客皆でキャーキャー言いながら目的の場所に着きました。すぐに長い浮きに捕まってのマンタ見学となり、じっと浮いているとマンタが次から次へとやってきて、信じられないほど近くで大きな口を開けながらクルクルと回転しはじめました。こんな光景は見たことない！感激でした。ジッとマンタを待っているときはちょっと寒さが沁みてきますが、マンタが近くに来てくれたら寒さも忘れて見入ってしまいました。ハワイ島に行ったら是非体験するべきオプションかと思います。

I didn't come to eat plankton like on TV. テレビみたいにプランクトン食べには来なかった

When we arrived at Sheraton's Point, we saw the shadow of a manta ray and immediately jumped into the water, but it never showed up. We held onto a flat rope while waiting, but it swayed with the waves and moved below, so it wasn't much support. Eventually, I grabbed onto the board directly. I was only breathing through my mouth, swaying up and down and side to side, and after half of the people got seasick and gave up to return to the boat, a few manta rays finally passed by, and that was the end of it. I chose a company that allows you to participate again if you don't encounter manta rays, but since I did see a few, I consider it a graduation of sorts. People who participated with two other companies on the same day said, "As soon as we got in the water, a manta did a flip right in front of us," and "We saw so many," which made it even more disappointing that we didn't have a day with manta rays. There were clouds on the horizon, and we were unlucky enough not to see the sunset, which was highly rated in the reviews.

シェラトン沖のポイントに着くとマンタの影が見え、すぐ海に入りましたが、その後一向に現れませんでした。
平たい紐に掴まって待ちますが、波にユラユラ漂うし下にも動くので支えにならず、途中からボードに直接掴まりました。
口呼吸のみで上下左右に揺られ続け、半数の人が気分が悪くなりギブアップして船に戻った後、ようやく数枚のマンタが通過して行き終了。
マンタに遭遇出来なかったら再度参加出来る会社を選びましたが、一応見られたので卒業。
同じ日に別の2社で参加した人達は「海に入るや否やマンタが鼻先で宙返りした」「いっぱい見られました」と言っており、マンタがいなかった日ではない所がさらに残念です。
水平線に雲が懸かっていて、クチコミで評判の夕日さえ見られないという運の悪さでした。

The manta rays are truly impressive. マンタの迫力満点

I arrived at the port an hour early and while I was walking in the beautiful park by the coast, I was able to see two sea turtles basking in the sun. I highly recommend it. There was apparently only one manta ray, but it was amazing how it flipped and came right in front of me multiple times.

1時間早く港に着いて海岸にあるきれいな公園を散歩してたら甲羅干ししてるウミガメ2匹を見ることができました。おすすめです。マンタは1匹だったらしいですが、宙返りして何回も目の前にやって来るのがすごかったです。

I didn't expect manta rays to come so close. I was told not to touch them, but it felt like the manta rays were bumping into me!

こんなに近くまでマンタが寄ってくるとは、思いませんでした。触らないように言われましたが、マンタの方からわたしに体当たりしてくるような感じでした！

You can only have this kind of experience in Hawaii. It's just so close! In fact, we encountered them several times. As soon as we turned on the LED lights on the SUP boards for everyone to catch, the mantas came right over.

It was like a scene from an aquarium. They are just so big. They swim by really close with their mouths open, eating the plankton attracted by the light. They are about the size of two people, which is a bit scary.

By the way, before reaching the mantas, we also got to see a very beautiful sunset.

It was a thoroughly satisfying tour!!

こんな体験はハワイしかできない。とにかく近い！というか何度か当たりました。。
そしてマンタと遭遇するタイミングが早い早い。みんなで捕まる用のSUPボードのLEDライトを点けるとすぐにマンタが寄ってきました。
水族館で見るような光景。とにかく大きい。光で集まったプランクトンを食べているので、口を空けたままめちゃ近くをすれ違います。人間二人分くらいの大きさかな。ちょっとこわいくらい。
ちなみにマンタの場所に到達する前にとても美しい夕日も見られます。
色々大満足なツアーです！！
