I was able to see a whale breaching. クジラのブリーチングがみれた

Reviewed by: HOSOMI

We participated as a family of three, including my spouse and our first-grade child. The boat was quite comfortable, and we were able to see dolphins very well. We also spotted whales a few times in the distance. At one point, we witnessed a breaching, which was truly moving. However, our child was scared and didn't want to be at the edge of the boat, so they stayed in the middle and couldn't see much. The staff's explanations were in English, so I didn't understand them well, but the snacks we had on board were delicious.

夫婦と小学校1年生の子供の3人で参加しました。
船は結構快適で、イルカが良く見えました。クジラも少し遠くですが数回見えました。一度はブリーチングが見れ感動ものでした。ただし子供は船の端のほうにいるのを嫌がり（怖がり）船の真ん中の方いたので良く見れませんでした。
スタッフの方の説明は英語だったのでよく分かりませんでしたが、船上で食べたスナックが美味しかったです。

I went without much expectation, but it was more enjoyable than I thought! I happened to get friendly with a Japanese couple I met in line, and we enjoyed the show together, which made for great memories.

However, there was a time when I struggled with severe drowsiness due to jet lag... Since it was such a special show, it might be a waste to incorporate it into a very tight schedule.

そんなに期待せずに行ったんですが

It was good, but a little more... 良かったですが、もう少し…

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

On January 1, 2011, I participated with my family of four. It was great to see a whale for the first time in my life. However, since it was a large boat, I thought it would be difficult, and I was a bit disappointed that we were a little far from the whale, so I couldn't fully experience its size. I also wished we could have spent a bit more time watching the whales. Nonetheless, it was a relatively easy tour, and I don't think you can have this kind of experience in Japan, so I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see whales.

2011年1月1日の元日に家族4人で参加しました。生まれて初めて鯨を見ることができたので良かったです。ただ大きな船なので難しいとは思いますが、ちょっと鯨との距離が離れていたので大きさを体感することができなかったのは残念でした。またもう少し鯨を見る時間をとってほしかったなと思いました。でも比較的手軽なツアーだし、日本ではこのような体験はできないと思うので鯨を見てみたい人にはオススメのツアーだと思います。

Cruising in the rain 雨のクルージング

Reviewed by: 大阪のうさ

Despite the rain, we set sail and spent about an hour searching diligently for whales, but unfortunately, we didn't see any. However, at the end, we encountered a pod of dolphins! We spent quite a long time moving through the sea together. Several dolphins swam around the boat, and we were able to see them up close. They jumped repeatedly, putting on a great show for us. The disappointment of not seeing any whales was completely blown away. I definitely want to participate in a whale watching cruise again next time and hope to see whales.

雨が降る中、 出航し１時間程、一生懸命に鯨を探し回って下さったのですが、残念ながら鯨の姿は見えませんでした。

The whale was surprisingly far away, but the cruising was refreshing. クジラは意外に遠かったけど、クルージングは爽快

Reviewed by: 磨波郎

I participated with my wife and our third-grade son. Shortly after departure, we encountered a mother and baby whale. We were able to see them quite a few times while keeping our distance. One of those times, we were lucky enough to witness the mother whale jumping and showing her massive body above the water's surface. However, the distance was generally far, so the emotional impact was somewhat diminished. Also, since we could mostly only see the whales' backs, we had to concentrate on the surface of the water to catch the exciting moments like when they jump or elegantly raise their tails above the surface. That can be quite challenging.

This was my first time whale watching, so I might have underestimated it a bit. On the other hand, a pod of dolphins came quite close to the boat and swam alongside us, and when the boat picked up speed, the sea breeze felt pleasant. If you can think of it as mainly enjoying the cruising experience, it could be quite happy.

The staff was cheerful and friendly, and the captain was impressively talkative, providing explanations (though in English). There were snacks and fruits available, but no substantial meals. Coffee and water were unlimited, but cocktails were available for an extra charge.

　妻と小学校３年の息子の３人で参加しました。　
出港後、ほどなくして親子のクジラに遭遇。遠巻きに見ながら追っかけて、けっこうな回数、見ることができました。　しかも、そのうち１回は親クジラがジャンプするような感じで巨体を水面に出す場面が見れたので、ラッキーでした。ただ、距離は全般的に遠かったので、感動も小さかったかな。　また、クジラはほとんど背中しか見えませんので、ジャンプするところや尾びれを優雅に水面に出すオイシイ場面を見逃さないようにするには、集中して海面を見つめていなければなりません。それがけっこう大変かも。
　私はホエール･ウォッチングは初めてでしたので、ちょっと安易に考えすぎてすぎていたかもしれません。
　その代わりにイルカの群れは、けっこう船の近くまで寄っ
てきて泳いでくれましたし、船がスピードを出すと潮風が心地よかったので、クルージングを楽しむことがメインだと思えればＨＡＰＰＹかもしれません。
　スタッフは陽気でフレンドリーだし、船長は感心するくらいしゃべりっぱなしで説明をしていました（ただし英語）。
　あと、スナック菓子やフルーツはありましたが、食事的なものはありません。コーヒーと水は飲み放題ですが、カクテル類は有料でした。

I went to see the whales. クジラ見てきました。

Reviewed by: テイミス

I joined a tour that departed in the afternoon. I skipped lunch expecting some light snacks, but what was served were just some snack bites and fruit, which was a bit disappointing. The drinks were free except for alcohol, but since we were on a boat, it felt awkward to go to the restroom, so I couldn't drink too much. However, I did get to see whales that I wouldn't have seen on land, so it was okay.

If you want to take good photos of the whales, you need a serious camera with a telephoto lens and shoot in burst mode, otherwise, you'll end up with photos where you can't even tell where the whale is. My IXUS was completely useless for whale photography.

午後出発のツアーに参加しました。
軽食付きに期待して昼ご飯を抜いたら、供されたのはおつまみスナックとフルーツくらいで、ちょいがっくり。飲み物はアルコール以外フリードリンクですが、船上の事、トイレに行くのも憚られるのでそうそうがぶ飲みも出来ず。
でも陸に居ては見られないクジラを見られたし、まあＯＫです。
クジラの写真をちゃんと撮って帰りたい人は、望遠レンズ付きのマジなカメラで連写しないと、どこにクジラがいるのかさっぱり判らない写真しか撮れない事になるので、ご注意を。私のＩＸＹはクジラ撮影には完璧に無力でした。

A good show, we were sitting back by the food line and the sound was unclear. Several of us at the table were having difficulty hearing the varoius people on the stage talking, causing some of the dancing questionable such as the cowboy. The dance was very good but we didn't understand how it fit in until I did research.
A very good effort by all your people.
Some hard feelings by those standing for quite a while and then the prefered guest march in and are given the best seats. You need to find a better way to do that.

伝統ルアウ＆フラ・ハワイアンショー　アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ（キングカメハメハホテル内）＜ブッフェ夕食／飲み放題／シェルレイ付＞

I was able to see everything from Polynesian dance to hula. ポリネシアンからフラダンスまで見れました

Reviewed by: イチロー

The luau show was great because I could see various traditional dances☆

Although the seating arrangement doesn't guarantee that you'll get to sit in the front even if you line up early, it seems there's an option to arrange for seats closer to the front for an additional $20.

Since the dances are only performed on stage, sitting closer definitely makes it easier to see. It would be amazing if they could come down from the stage and perform up close at least once...

The event's schedule consists of half luau and dance shows, and the other half is a talk show with the host and performers. I think those who can speak English will enjoy it fully, but since I couldn't understand most of what was being said, I felt like I only enjoyed about half of what I paid for.

The dance portion isn't very long, so I wouldn't particularly recommend it for those who want to see hula or dance shows in depth, but experiencing it in person is a good experience, so it might be nice for first-timers. By the way, the show is dark, so it's difficult to capture footage unless you're using video.

ルアウショーはいろいろな伝統ダンスが見られるのが良かったです☆

席は早く並んでも必ず前に行くという仕組みではありませんでしたが、事前にプラス20ドルで前のほうの席にしてもらうアレンジがあるようです。

ダンスは舞台でしか行われないので、近い席のほうが確かに見やすいのです。できれば、１度くらい舞台から降りて近くで披露してくれると最高なのですが・・・。

開催時間の内容は半分がルアウなどのダンスショー、もう半分が司会やパフォーマーのトークショーです。
英語が出来る人は、十分楽しめると思いますが、ほとんど何を言ってるかわからなかったため、払った金額の半分くらいしか楽しめなかったなと思います。

ダンスの時間はそんなに長くないので、フラやダンスショーをしっかり見たい方にはあまりお勧めはしませんが、現地で見たということ自体はいい経験になるので、初めての方にはいいかもしれません。
ちなみにショーの時間は暗いので、動画じゃないと映像は撮りにくいですよ。

You will receive a voucher at the hotel's dedicated reception. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis. However, it seems that even if you arrive early, you will be guided from the back, so you can't choose your seat. You will have a meal while watching the show. The food itself was just okay. When we went, there was a heavy rain that caused a temporary interruption, but it was a nice memory.

Everyone should go and have fun together! みんなでワイワイ行くべし！

Reviewed by: ウォンダン

I went last week!

It was a tour that I was completely satisfied with. On the day we participated, my group was the only one made up of Japanese people. Most of the other guests were from the mainland United States. There were mostly couples, families, and groups participating.

We received safety instructions for snorkeling, but we were given a paper written in Japanese, so I think even those who are worried about the language can participate with peace of mind. Also, the staff and the surrounding guests all had a friendly atmosphere, so even if you don't speak English well, you can communicate with simple words and have a good time.

I think it's okay for those who are not confident in swimming to participate. On this tour, there were people enjoying themselves while floating on inflatable rings.

I recommend this tour for the morning since the waves are calmer then. Even in the morning tour, the waves do get a bit higher in the latter half.

It was a very enjoyable tour, but I got seasick on the way back. It takes nearly 30 minutes from the snorkeling point to the port, so you might feel nauseous. I recommend bringing motion sickness medication. Even if you don't have any, if you tell the staff, they will make ginger ale to help alleviate the nausea.

For snorkeling, I was lent a prescription snorkeling set. It's recommended for those who wear glasses.

Everyone was able to return to their childhood, jumping into the sea and enjoying snorkeling, having a great time. Other guests were also frolicking like children. I definitely recommend participating as a group and having fun together.

The water was clear down to the bottom, which was impressive. There were many sea urchins at the bottom, and I was able to see cute fish as well. The seawater was warm, which was also nice.

先週行ってきました！

すべてに大満足のツアーでした。
私たちが参加した日は私のグループのみが日本人でした。
他はアメリカ本土からのお客さんが多かったです。
カップルや家族連れ、グループでの参加がほとんどでした。

スノーケリングの注意などを受けますが、日本語で書かれた紙を渡されるので、言葉に心配な人でも安心して参加できると思います。
また、スタッフやまわりのお客さんもみんなフレンドリーな雰囲気だったので、英語が良くできなくても、簡単な言葉でコミュニケーションをとったり、楽しく過ごすことができました。

泳ぎに自信がない人も参加して大丈夫だと思います。
今回のツアーでも、浮き輪で揺られて楽しんでいる人もいました。

また、午前中のほうが波が静かなので、こちらのツアーをお勧めします。午前中のツアーでも後半では波が少し高くなってきます。

とても楽しいツアーでしたが、帰りの船で船酔いしてしまいました。スノーケリングのポイントから港まで３０分近くかかるので、気持ち悪くなるかもしれません。
酔い止めを持っていくことをお勧めします。
もし、酔い止めをもっていなくとも、スタッフに伝えれば、酔い止めを緩和するジンジャーエールを作ってくれます。

スノーケリングでは、度付きのスノーケリングセットを貸してもらいました。めがねの人はお勧めです。

みんなが童心に帰って、海に飛び込んだり、スノーケリングを楽しんだり、楽しい時間をすごすことができました。
他のお客さんも子供のようにはしゃいでいました。
絶対、グループで参加してみんなでワイワイ過ごすことをオススメします。

海の中は底まで透き通っていて、感動的でした。

Reviewed by: Taka

I participated on May 20th.
First, the reception desk was set up in front of the Body Glove boat. Staff members arrived a little before the meeting time. It seemed there were no staff who spoke Japanese, but everyone was very gentlemanly and friendly, and they kindly listened even to my broken English, which was helpful.
We encountered a pod of dolphins right after departure. I think there were about 20 of them. It was my first time seeing wild dolphins, and I was moved. By the way, we encountered them again at the same spot on the way back, so they might always be there during this time of year.
After that, it took about 40 minutes to reach the snorkeling point. There was guidance in English along the way, but I couldn't catch it because it was too fast. However, they showed us a Japanese explanation sheet, so it was not a problem at all.
You can enjoy snorkeling for over two hours at a depth of about 5 to 10 meters where there are coral reefs. The water was a bit cold and somewhat chilly, but the visibility was high and there were many fish, so I had a great time. There seemed to be life jackets available, but I was strongly recommended to use a noodle, which is a long foam float, and when I tried it, it was indeed easy to use. Of course, they also lend you a snorkel and fins.
As for meals, as soon as you get on the boat, you can freely take breakfast (bread, muffins, fruit, drinks), and when you arrive at the snorkeling point, lunch (bread, ham, vegetables, potato chips, drinks, etc., all of various kinds) is provided, which you can also eat freely. The taste was just average, but I thought it was good that there were various options.
We were the only Japanese participants, but I think it’s a tour that is easy to join because the staff is very polite. One point to note is that the boat sways quite a bit, so I think it would be safer for those who are prone to motion sickness to take some medication before participating.

　５月２０日に参加してきました。
　まず、受付はボディグローブの船の前にデスクが置いてあり、そちらになります。集合時間の少し前からスタッフの方がいらっしゃいました。日本語の通じるスタッフはいないようでしたが、皆さん非常に紳士的かつフレンドリーで片言の英語でも丁寧に聞いてくれるので、助かりました。
　出発してすぐにイルカの群れに遭遇しました。２０頭ぐらいはいたと思います。野生のイルカは初めて見たので感動でした。ちなみに、帰りも同じポイントで遭遇しましたので、この時期は日中いつもそこにいるのかも知れません。
　その後、４０分ほどかけてシュノーケリングポイントに到達します。途中、英語でガイダンスがありますが、早口で全く聞き取れませんでした。でも、日本語の説明書を見せてくれるので全く問題なかったです。
　珊瑚礁のある深さ５~１０ｍ程度のところで２時間以上シュノーケリングを満喫できます。水がやや冷たく若干肌寒かったですが、透明度は高く魚も多いので楽しめました。ライフジャケットもあるようでしたが、ヌードルという細長い発泡スチロールのような浮きを強く奨められ、使ってみたところ確かに使いやすかったです。もちろん、シュノーケルとフィンも貸してくれます。
　食事は、船に乗るとすぐに朝食（パン、マフィン、果物、飲み物）をフリーで取ることができ、シュノーケリングポイントにつくとランチ（パン、ハム、野菜、ポテトチップス、飲み物などいずれも複数種類）が用意され、これもフリーで食べられます。味はまあ普通ですが、種類がいろいろあるのがよいと思いました。
　日本人は我々だけでしたが、スタッフがとても丁寧なので参加しやすいツアーだと思います。一点だけ、船は結構揺れるので、弱い方は酔い止めを飲んで参加した方が安心だと思います。

Dolphin イルカ

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I was able to see dolphins. I was a bit worried because it seemed that some people couldn't see them, but during my visit, perhaps due to the timing, I was able to see dolphins swimming from the hotel balcony in the morning, so I wasn't too concerned. By the way, it was around mid-May, during the new moon phase (which may not be related).

As soon as we set sail, we saw dolphins up close, and I was really excited. I regretted not taking pictures because I thought we would be snorkeling there. We ended up snorkeling at another location, which had beautiful coral reefs. They provided masks and fins, and just floating in the sea was very soothing and enjoyable. There were always meals and drinks available, and the shower and restroom were clean, so I thought it was a nice experience. It felt more like a relaxing playtime.

I also did diving as an option. I didn't understand the language, but they properly informed us about the dive sites and guided us, so I had a lot of fun. However, once you start diving, the free time (if you can call it that) becomes limited. I thought it would be amazing if we could dive in the area where the dolphins are.

イルカ見れました。書き込みには、見れなかった人もいたようなので、ちょっと心配でしたが、私の時は、時期がよっかったのか、ホテルのベランダからも朝はイルカが泳いでいるのがみれていたので、心配がなたったです。ちなみに５月半ばの、（関係ないかもだけど、）新月位の時でした。
　出航してすぐイルカがみれ、まじかでしたので、ちょう興奮しました。そこでスノーケルかと思い写真をとらなかったのが、残念でした。スノーケルは、他の場所で、そこは珊瑚のきれいな海です。マスクとフィンを貸してくれて、海に浮いているだけでもとても癒されよかったです。食事も飲み物もつねにあるし、シャワーもついてるし、トイレもキレイなので、いい感じだと思います。どちらかというと、のんびり遊ぶ（癒しな）感じだと思います。
　オプションでダイビングもしました。言葉は解りませんが、ちゃんとポイント名も教えてくれて、ガイドもしてくれたので、結構楽しめました。　ただ、ダイビングをしてしまうと、自由時間（？）が少なくなってしまいます。せっかくなら、イルカがいるところで、ダイビングできたら最高なのにな、と思いました。

They provided anti-fog spray for the snorkeling masks and tubes as substitutes for floatation devices, which made for a very comfortable experience. The snorkeling point was in shallow waters with not much wave action, and there were plenty of fish, so even kids could have fun.

The passion for thier culture, and familys was beautifully done. By the time you left, you felt like you were part of their Ohana.

I couldn't understand the detailed explanations, but I thoroughly enjoyed the whale watching.
With fewer passengers, we were able to move around to various positions on the boat, making the watching environment the best.
I was particularly moved by the sight of the whales breaching.
I couldn't help but scream in excitement.
However, since we were expecting to see the breaching right in front of us, it was disappointing that the moment happened quite far away.
Lastly, perhaps due to the bad weather, the catamaran rocked quite a bit. Even though I took motion sickness medication, I still got seasick.

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ 　2階建てカタマラン船に乗って壮大なクジラの姿を観察！＜12～3月／軽食付き／英語ガイド／カイルアコナ発＞

I saw a whale up close. すごくまじかにクジラが見えました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Perhaps it was the season of March, but we encountered a pod of mother and baby whales. Two and a half hours passed in the blink of an eye.

３月という季節がよかったせいかクジラの親子の群れに遭遇。２時間半があっという間に過ぎました。

Whale watching ホエールウォッチング

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

February is said to be the best season for whale watching, but on the day I boarded, I was only able to catch a glimpse of them from a distance a few times, which was a bit disappointing. The cruise itself had a sense of openness and a nice atmosphere. I was also relieved that I didn't experience any seasickness and was able to relax during the trip.

2月は鯨のベストシーズンとのことでしたが、乗船した日は数回、遠目でようやく確認する位でしか見れなかったのがちょっと残念でした。
クルーズ自体は開放感があり、雰囲気もよかったです。
心配していた船酔いもなく、くつろいだ時間をすごすことができました。

伝統ルアウ＆フラ・ハワイアンショー　アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ（キングカメハメハホテル内）＜ブッフェ夕食／飲み放題／シェルレイ付＞

The first day is recommended. 初日がお薦め

Reviewed by: ハートヒーリング

Even someone like me, who isn't very good at English conversation, was able to enjoy it fully. I recommend arriving a little early and lining up in front of the entrance, as you can get a good spot closer to the front. The food is also plentiful. Towards the end, the sea breeze can feel quite cold, so it's a good idea to bring a jacket. I think couples should not be shy and dance together. On the first night after arriving in Hawaii, you might feel sleepy at first, but your energy will quickly rise, so I recommend seeing it in the first half.

あまり英会話が出来ない私でも、充分楽しむことが出来ました。少し早めに行き、入口前で並ぶと、結構、前の方で見れるのでお薦めいたします。料理も充実しています。最後の方は、海風が冷たく感じてくるので、上着を持参するといいですよ。ぜひカップルの方は恥ずかしがらずに、一緒踊るといいと思いますよ。ハワイ島着いた初日の夜は眠いかと思いまずか、一気にテンション上がるから、前半に見る事をお薦め致します。

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ 　2階建てカタマラン船に乗って壮大なクジラの姿を観察！＜12～3月／軽食付き／英語ガイド／カイルアコナ発＞

Just 5 minutes after departure. 出航から、わずか5分

Reviewed by: ちい

Shortly after setting sail,
"Wait? Were they already here?"
Right next to the boat, there were three dolphins and two whales.
There was no time to eat snacks.

I wonder if the whales in Hawaii are not very cautious?
They didn't seem to leave the side of the boat, and for a while, they were waving their fins,
as if they were waving at us...

During the two-hour cruise, we encountered whales quite frequently.
It's said that once they dive, they can hold their breath for about 20 minutes.
We spotted them spouting water and moved quickly towards them.
We kept approaching and stopping the engine repeatedly...
That day, perhaps because we encountered so many whales,
by the end, everyone seemed to be getting a bit bored.
Those who participated the day before said they only saw one whale from a distance.

The weather was nice that day, and I think we were lucky,
but I’m really glad I got to see so many whales on this boat.

Personally, I was out on the deck so much that I got sunburned,
and before I knew it, I had taken over 100 pictures with my digital camera.
Chasing after the whales was such a fun time!

The view of the Big Island from the sea was also wonderful.

出航してまもなく
「えっ？もういたの？」
船のすぐ側に、いるかが３頭。くじらが２頭。
スナックフードを食べている暇もありません。

ハワイの鯨は警戒心が無いのかな？
船の側を離れる様子も無く、しばらくムナビレを振ったりして
その様子は、まるで手を振ってくれているかのよう・・・

その後も、2時間のクルーズの間、かなりの確率で
鯨に遭遇。
一度、海に沈むと20分は息が続くと言われる鯨さん。
潮を吹いているのを見つけては、高速で移動。
近づいては、エンジンを止めての繰り返し・・・
この日は、あまりにも、鯨に遭遇したせいか
最後の方には、皆さん、飽きてきたかも。
前日に、参加した方々は1回だけ遠くに観たそうです。

この日は、お天気もよく、きっと運も良かったのだとは
思いますが、たくさんの鯨に出会えて
この船に乗ってよかったです。

個人的には、日焼けするくらい甲板に出ずっぱりで
デジカメ画像は、気が付いたら100枚を越えていました。
夢中で鯨を追いかけた時間、楽しかったです！

海から見る、ハワイ島の風景も素敵でした。

Incredible power!!! 大迫力！！！

Reviewed by: MINO

I just returned from the Big Island of Hawaii.
This time of year coincides with the arrival of humpback whales, so whether you join other ocean tours or a circumnavigation of the island, you can see the whales jumping.

However, this cruise features the whales, allowing you to see them jumping up close and watch several of them playing!

I found myself so captivated by the whales that I could only take distant photos, but my friend who was with me captured some great videos!

Since everyone on the cruise shares the goal of seeing the whales, conversations flow freely regardless of nationality.

As with any tour, I always believe that not being afraid to make mistakes and approaching others with a smile is the key to enjoying your travels.

Water, juice, snacks, and fruit are complimentary. Cocktails and alcoholic drinks can be enjoyed at the onboard bar.

ハワイ島から帰国したばかりです。
この時期はザトウクジラが来る時期にちょうどあたっていた
ということで、他の海のツアーに参加しても
島一周に参加してもクジラのジャンプは観る事ができます。

でも、このクルーズはクジラにフィーチャーしていくので
間近でクジラのジャンプ、数頭が遊んでいるところを
みることができますよ！

私はついクジラに見とれていて、写真は遠くに
ちょっと写っているようなものしかとれませんでしたが
一緒にいた友人は、ムービーでしっかりとってました！

参加者の目的はクジラをみることで一緒なので
クルーズ中は国籍関係なく話が盛り上がります。

どんなツアーでもそうですが、間違える事をおそれないで
自分から話しかけたり、笑顔でいることが
旅行を楽しくする秘訣だといつも思います。

水とジュース、おつまみやフルーツはフリー。
カクテルやアルコールドリンクは船内のバーで
楽しむことができます。
