3-Hour Kona Whale Watching Tour & Rafting Expedition - Captain Zodiac [Dec-Mar]

Getting bounced around to kingdom come!! ;-(

Reviewed by: Michelle

Well, we were very excited to go on this tour. We have gone out in Alaska on whale tours and had a blast. First of all we noticed that the "safety" protocols were not very obvious. There were 12 guests on board and we noticed ONE life jacket. You basically scream across the water for over an hour, sitting on the edge of the raft and got bounced to kingdom come. We did see a mama and baby whale, which was nice. But, we both got sick on the boat. The staff was nice, but not overly accommodating with our throwing up and getting sick.

Whale watching ホエールウォッチング

Reviewed by: ari

It was the evening of the previous day, but I was able to smoothly make a reservation and complete the payment without any issues, allowing me to go whale watching the next morning. However, the meeting point on the map was at a different location from the same agent, which caused quite a bit of panic. Fortunately, a local person kindly explained everything to me, and I was able to make it on time.

前日の夕方でしたがスムーズに予約がとれ支払いも話題なく翌日の朝からホエールウォッチングする事ができましたが集合場所の地図が同じエージェントの別の場所になっておりかなり慌てました。現地の方に丁寧に説明していただき無事まにあいました。

The morning was a bit early, but it was great that the location was close. That day, the wind was strong, but I was excited to see the whales in the distance; it was thrilling and moving. 朝が少々早かったが場所が近くて良かった。その日は風が強かったのですが沖の方には鯨の姿が見えてわくわく、感動、感動でした。

The cruiser was large and the wind was strong, but it was okay. I was moved to see whales swimming to the right and left in front of the boat. However, there were no jumps, and I was a bit disappointed with just the body and tail. But I guess that's nature for you.

Maybe because it was an early morning, I was able to spend the day very leisurely. It was a wonderful experience. The staff were also very kind and it was a lot of fun.

クルーザーも大きく風が強かったがまあまあでした。
鯨も舟の先へと右へと左へとみることが出来感動でした。でもジャンプ等はなく胴体しっぽなどで少々期待外れ。でも相手は自然界しょうがないですね。

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ　キャプテン・ゾディアック号　クジラと近距離＆スリル満点！ラフティングボートツアー＜午前・午後・夕方／12～3月／カイルアコナ発＞

The rafting boat feels just like a rodeo! ラフティングボートはまるでロデオのよう！

Reviewed by: totto

On February 8th, I participated with my children and my brother-in-law, a group of four. We were able to see a mother and baby whale, dynamic jumps (which were a bit far away), and a pod of dolphins up close. The captain took us to various points where we could encounter different wildlife. The thrill of the speed and bouncing felt like a roller coaster, and I gripped the ropes tightly, which left me with sore muscles for a while.

Before participating, I was worried about what to wear. How cold is the ocean in Hawaii during winter? Would I get completely soaked? What about shoes? The conclusion was that the ocean had a bit of swell, and the boat's spray only splashed on us a little. I think it depends on the sea conditions, but it’s fine to dress in a way that you wouldn’t mind getting a little wet. By the way, I wore a T-shirt with a hooded rash guard, pants, and water shoes. Sunglasses are a must. The boat bounces at incredible speed, so a cap will fly off.

2月8日に子供夫婦と義兄の4人で参加しました。クジラの親子、ダイナミックなジャンプ（これは少し遠かったです）、イルカの群れを近くで見ることも出来ました。キャプテンが色々遭遇できそうなポイントに連れて行ってくれました。ジェットコースターのようなスリル満点のスピードとバウンドの為ロープを握りしめる手や踏ん張る脚に力が入りしばらくは筋肉痛でした。
参加する前に心配していたのは服装の事。ハワイの冬の海はどのくらい寒いのか？ずぶ濡れになってしまうのか？靴は？という事で結論は、海は少しうねりがありボートの波しぶきが少しかかる程度でした。海のコンディションにもよると思いますが、少し濡れてもいいくらいの格好で大丈夫。ちなみに私はTシャツにフード付きラッシュガード、パンツ、マリンシューズ。、サングラスは必須です。ボートはすごいスピードでバウンドしながら疾走するのでキャップは飛んでしまいます。

I'm glad I got to see the whale. くじらに会えて良かった。

Reviewed by: マハロ

Most of the participants seemed to be foreigners, with only two Japanese people. Throughout the tour, there is narration, but it's all in English, so those who understand it will likely enjoy it more. Light snacks are available on board, including pretzels, fruits, and coffee. Alcohol can also be ordered separately.

At first, a few dolphins appeared, followed by whales about three times. It lasted around five minutes. Just when I was about to give up because they weren't showing up, I was moved when I saw the dorsal fin. It was the moment when everyone's wishes were fulfilled.

From what I heard around me, it seems that dolphins are seen more frequently in places like Oahu and Okinawa, so I think this tour is more suitable for those who are looking for a cruise experience rather than just whale watching. Although it was a large ship, there was quite a bit of rocking, so I recommend that those who are sensitive to motion sickness prepare some medication.

ほとんどの参加者が外国の方のようでした。日本人は別に2人ほど。
ツアー中、ずっとナレーションが入りますが全て英語のため、分かる方はより楽しめると思います。
船内では軽食が食べられます。ブレッツェルなどのお菓子、フルーツ、コーヒーなど。お酒も別途注文できます。

最初にイルカが数頭出てきて、
そのあとくじらが3回ほど。時間にすると5分程でしょうか。
なかなか出てこず、諦めかけた矢先でしたので、背ビレが見えた時は感動ものでした。皆の願いが届いた瞬間でした。

周囲の話を聞いていると、オアフ島や沖縄ではもっと頻度良く見られるとのことで、ホエールウォッチング以上に、クルーズを目的にされる方に適しているツアーだと思いました。
また大きい船でしたが、揺れが結構大きかったので、弱い方は酔い止めをご準備された方が良いと思います。

Whale watching afternoon tour ホエールウォッチングお昼のツアー

Reviewed by: Rr ❤︎

It’s not that I couldn’t see them, but I thought I would be able to see them much closer. Upon further inquiry, I learned that during the afternoon, the whales are napping, so they are not very visible unless you go in the morning or around evening.

Also, when I tried to book, I wanted to sign up for the Tuesday evening tour, but I could only click on Wednesday evening. So, reluctantly, I clicked on Wednesday night, but I couldn’t make a reservation and was instead offered Tuesday afternoon, which I accepted... but I really wanted to go in the evening.

Then, two days later, while I was taking a walk on the hotel beach, I saw whales... (crying)

見れなかったわけではないのですが…
もっともっと近くで見れると思ってました。
よくよく聞くと、お昼頃はホエールはお昼寝中なので朝もしくは夕方ごろじゃないとあまり見えないそうです。

あと、予約時に火曜日の夕方のツアーに申し込みたいのに水曜日の夕方しかクリックできなかったので仕方なく水曜日の夜をクリックしたら予約できず火曜日のお昼をすすめられたので火曜日のお昼にしましたが…やっぱり夕方に見に行きたかったです。

そして、2日後にホテルのビーチをお散歩してたらホエール見れました…(泣)

Disappointing

Reviewed by: Colin

We found this trip rather disappointing. It was supposed to last for an hour but we returned to the pier after 50 minutes. In the event we had probably seen all there was to see after 20 minutes. You see rather dull brown/grey coral, some small blue and yellow fish and some sea urchins - No wrays or sharks or anything unusual. In fact the guide started to describe the history of the buildings on the shoreline as we headed back. Not worth the money.

A unique experience for this season! この時期ならではの体験！

Reviewed by: まっきー＠

It seems that the weather is usually calm, but there happened to be strong winds, and the boat was rocking quite a bit, which made me feel seasick (I'm prone to motion sickness, and I had taken medication for it...). Everyone else seemed to be fine, though.

The sea breeze was very refreshing, and once we got further out, we could see the beautiful view of Mauna Kea. At first, we could only see it from a distance, but just before we returned, a whale came close to us, and it was an emotional moment. A foreign staff member was sending some kind of signal underwater to attract the whales. It was a precious experience!

普段は穏やからしいですが、たまたま風が強く、結構船が揺れて酔ってしまいました（私は酔いやすい方で酔い止めは飲んでいたのですが…）。他は皆さん大丈夫そうでした。
とても気持ちいい海風で、沖へ出ると、マウナケアの山の景色がきれいに見れました。
初めは少し遠目にしか見れませんでしたが、帰り間際に至近距離でクジラが来てくれて、感動しました。外国人スタッフの方が、クジラを呼び寄せる信号？みたいなのを海中で送ってくれてました。貴重な体験でした！

It was a participation of two mothers and two two-year-old boys! Perhaps because both of them took motion sickness medication, they fell asleep and we couldn't see the good parts, but the mothers were able to catch glimpses even while being unable to move! The staff were also kind, bringing us drinks while we couldn't move.

Since it was early in the morning, we brought rice balls with us. The boat only had granola, so it was great to be able to eat the rice balls we brought during the waiting time. It gets really bumpy once we set off, so I think it's best to eat during the waiting time before boarding the boat.

母二人、二歳の男の子二人での参加でした！
二人とも酔い止めを飲んでいたせいか、寝てしまい、ちょうどいいところで見れませんでしたが、母達は動けない中でもちらっと見ることが出来ました！
スタッフの方も、動けない私たちに飲み物を持ってきてくれたりと親切でした。

朝早くだったので、おにぎりを持参していきました。
船上はグラノーラだけでしたので、待ち時間に持参したおにぎりを食べれて良かったです。
出発するとすごく揺れるので、集合してから船乗するまでの待ち時間に食するとベストだと思います。

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ　クジラを探してコナの美しい海岸線をクルージング！ソフトドリンク付き ＜12～3月／午前・午後／英語ガイド＞

Snorkeling シュノーケリング

Reviewed by: めぐみ

I participated with a friend. We were the only Japanese people there, along with a Chinese couple and about ten American passengers. The guidance was conducted entirely in English. There were also floatation devices and life vests available for rent, so I think it's an activity that anyone who is unsure about swimming can enjoy with peace of mind.

After departing, we were first taken to a snorkeling spot to encounter dolphins. We stayed there for about an hour. Right after we arrived, we were able to encounter a large pod of dolphins, which was very moving. After snorkeling, there is a possibility of getting cold, so I recommend bringing a beach towel and a jacket that can get wet. Some people were wearing wetsuits.

After that, we moved to Masic Sands Beach and enjoyed another 30 minutes of snorkeling in a different atmosphere. There were some people who got seasick due to the waves and the boat's rocking, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication and getting plenty of sleep beforehand.

友人と2人で参加しました。
日本人は私たち2人だけで、他は中国系カップルと10人弱のアメリカ人の乗客とご一緒でした。
ガイダンスは全て英語での実施でした。
浮具やライフベストの貸し出しもあったので、泳ぎに不安のある方でも安心して楽しめるアクティビティかと思います。
出港後まずはイルカ遭遇のシュノーケリングスポットに連れて行っていただきました。
そこでの滞在時間はおおよそ1時間程度。
到着後直ぐに大きなイルカの群れと遭遇でき、とても感動的でした。
シュノーケリング後、体が冷える可能性もあるので、ビーチタオル、濡れても良い上着など持参するのをお勧めします。ウェットスーツを着ていらっしゃる方もいました。
その後は、Masic Sands Beach辺りに移動し、また違った雰囲気のシュノーケリングを30分程楽しめました。
波やボートの揺れで船酔いをしている方もいましたので、事前に酔い止め、十分な睡眠をお勧めします。

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＞

I'm so excited about the cute manta rays! かわいいマンタに大興奮！

Reviewed by: マーガレット

This was my first trip to the Big Island of Hawaii, and I participated in the much-talked-about night manta ray tour. I chose this particular tour among several options because the price included a wetsuit and was relatively reasonable, the boat ride to the snorkeling point was short, and there was a 7-day guarantee in case we didn't encounter any manta rays.

On the day of the tour, I went to the office to check in and then traveled to the boarding point, which was about a 5-minute drive away. There, I was able to rent a wetsuit and snorkeling gear. My husband borrowed prescription goggles. We set sail during sunset and quickly arrived at the snorkeling point. Aside from us, everyone else on the tour was from abroad, with about 30 participants in total. The instructions were given only in English, but it wasn't a problem at all. The staff members were very friendly and made the experience enjoyable.

The night ocean was incredibly mystical. Holding onto the floatation device and looking down, manta rays soon appeared. Over the course of about 50 minutes, 5 to 6 manta rays came by, showcasing their graceful movements. They were so adorable that I lost track of time, and everyone was super excited! My husband seemed ready to get out, but I wanted to keep watching forever. We returned to the dock in about 5 minutes, and I didn't feel the cold I had worried about at all. It was a thoroughly satisfying night.

今回初めてのハワイ島旅行、話題の夜のマンタツアーに参加しました。いくつかある同企画の中からこちらのツアーを選んだ理由は、ウェットスーツ込みの価格が比較的リーズナブルなこと、岸からポイントまでの乗船時間が短いこと、非遭遇時の7日間保証があることです。
当日、自分で事務所へ行き受付を済ませ、かなり離れた乗船ポイントまで行きます(車で5分)。そこでウェットスーツやシュノーケルセットを借りられます。主人は度付きのゴーグルを貸してもらいました。夕焼けの中、出航。すぐにポイントに到着。私達夫婦以外は全て外国の方。全部で30人位参加していました。説明は英語オンリーでしたが、特に困ることもありません。スタッフの方達はとてもフレンドリーで、楽しませてくれました。
夜の海はとても神秘的です。浮き具につかまり下を覗くと、すぐにマンタがやってきてくれました。50分程の間に5〜6頭やってきては、華麗な舞を披露してくれました。可愛くて、時間の経つのも忘れ、みんな大興奮‼︎ 主人はそろそろ上がりたかったみたいですが、私はいつまでもいつまでも見ていたかったです。帰りも5分程で船着場に到着。心配していた寒さも感じず、大満足の夜でした。
