マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供!<夕食付き/英語ガイド>by マサシネイチャースクール

The sunset was beautiful. サンセットはきれいでした。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated last September.
The weather looked ominous around Saddle Road, and I was worried, but the sunset at the summit was truly beautiful. The sun sank into the sea of clouds in an instant, and I wished I could have watched it a little longer.
During the stargazing afterward, there was unexpected rain... Still, I was moved when I briefly saw the Milky Way and the stars. Unfortunately, the rain didn't stop, so the stargazing was disappointing.
I definitely want to go back to the Big Island to see the beautiful starry sky again.

昨年9月に参加しました。
サドルロードあたりから、雲行きがあやしくお天気が心配でしたが、山頂に着いてからのサンセットは本当にきれいでした。夕日が雲海に沈んでいくのはあっという間で、もう少し長く眺めていたかったです。
その後の星空観測のときには、まさかの雨・・・。それでも、一瞬天の川や星が見えた時には感動しました。でもなかなか雨はやまずに星空観測は残念でした。
もう一度、きれいな星空を見るために必ずハワイ島に行きたいです。

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧 水~土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能<フライト100分/英語パイロット/ワイコロアヘリポート>

It's a breathtaking view, but... 絶景だけど

Reviewed by: mipo

I hoped to be a Japanese pilot, but I ended up participating in an English tour without any mention of that. The scenery was wonderful, and I was moved, but since I was seated next to the pilot (the computer assigns seats based on weight), I kept seeing the pilot yawn, which made me nervous. When I asked, "Are you sleepy?" he replied, "No!" so I took his word for it. The first hour was over Kilauea, and the second hour was over Waipi'o Valley. There was a stop at Hilo Airport for a break. Anyway, I'm glad we arrived safely.

日本語パイロットを希望したのですが、全くそれに触れられることもなく、英語のツアー参加になりました。
素晴らしい景色で、感動しましたが、パイロットの方の横の席になったせいで(体重でコンピューターが、席を決めます)、パイロットのあくびが何度も目に入り、緊張しました。
「Are you sleepy~」と聞いたら、「No!」と言われたので、それを信じて乗っていました。
前半1時間は、キラウエア、後半1時間は、ワイピオ渓谷です。途中、ヒロ空港に立ち寄り休憩があります。
とにかく、無事に着いてよかった。

ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック&シュノーケルツアー 海中洞窟探検プランあり <早朝・午前/日本語ガイド>by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

The guide was of high quality. ハイクオリティーなガイドさんです

Reviewed by: mipo

All the guides are advanced Japanese speakers, so there's no need to worry at all if you can't speak any English. After a very clear explanation of how to kayak, paddle, and some precautions, we headed straight to the sea. It was incredibly refreshing.

Everyone else in my group felt a bit seasick, but as soon as we started snorkeling, it seemed to go away. The guide suggested that when you're not feeling well, it's better to get into the water, and once I did, I felt much better right away. I was amazed by the power of nature.

Moreover, guides Kevin and Noni were attentive to our condition and well-being, which made it easy to participate with peace of mind. I think even elderly people can manage this activity without any issues.

The pineapple we ate on the kayak was incredibly delicious. I thought I had never tasted such a delicious fruit before. They also prepared juice, tea, and muffins.

I thought it would be difficult to take photos on the water, but the guide took pictures for us and sent them to our PCs after we returned home, all for free. It was such a delightful service. I must say, the photos turned out great.

This tour is full of hospitality. I highly recommend participating!

ガイドさんは皆、上級の日本語話者なので、英語が全くしゃべれなくても、全く心配いりません。カヤックの乗り方、こぎ方、注意事項をとてもわかりやすい説明の後、早速海へ。
素晴らしく爽快な気分になれました。
私以外、一緒に行った人皆、少し船酔いぎみでしたが、シュノーケルを始めた途端、治ったようです。気分が優れないときは、海に入った方が良いとガイドさんに言われ、入ったら、すぐに良くなったみたいです。大自然の力ってすごいなと思いました。
それに、ガイドのケビンさんも、ノニさんも、こちらの体調や様子をよく見てくださっていて、安心して参加できました。
高齢者の方でも十分いけると思います。
カヤックの上で食べたパイナップルは、最高に美味しかったです。こんなに美味しい果物は食べたことないと思ったほどです。他にも、ジュースやお茶やマフィンなど用意してありました。
海の上ではなかなか写真を撮れないと思っていましたが、ガイドさんが、ちゃんと撮って帰国後、PCに送ってくださいます。もちろん、無料で。とってもうれしいサービスです。自分で言うのもなんですが、かっこよく撮れてました。
ホスピタリティー溢れるツアーです。ぜひ、参加してみてください。

Kona Kayaking & Snorkeling Sea Cave Adventure at Keauhou Bay - Ocean Safari's

Would do again in a hearbeat!

Reviewed by: Liz G.

My granddaughter (14 yrs old) and I did this kayak snorkeling trip last month (July 27, 2012) and thoroughly enjoyed the experience! We had never kayaked before but had snorkled quite a few times over on Oahu. Our group of 11 included both experienced and novice kayakers. The guides (especially Brent) were helpful, knowledgeable, friendly and especially patient with us newbies. Water visibility was fantastic. We saw an abundance of different fish when we stopped to snorkel and were lucky enough to have a pod of dolphins come within 15 feet of us. That alone made the experience memorable. Water bottles were provided on the kayaks and when we stopped we snacked on drinks, chips and fresh delicious pineapple. I would strongly recommend wearing water shoes/sandals in order to be able to easily climb up to the lava cliff to make the jump. Would I do this snorkeling trip again? In a heartbeat!!!

マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供!<夕食付き/英語ガイド>by マサシネイチャースクール

I was moved by the wonderful starry sky. 素晴らしい星空に感動。

Reviewed by: せんちょ☆

Since it was summer, we were picked up at the hotel at 3:30 PM. We visited about five hotels in total.

On the way up Mauna Kea, we took breaks and took photos on the volcanic plateau while being jostled in the car, arriving at the Onizuka Center in an hour and a half.

There, we enjoyed a Japanese bento box, and I was impressed that it came with miso soup.

After that, we put on warm clothes, hats, and made our way to the summit. At the top, we received detailed explanations at the observation deck, took sunset photos, and had various commemorative pictures taken with a sign at the summit of Mauna Kea.

Afterward, we did some stargazing in a spot with little wind. The explanations were easy to understand, and we were able to take photos, creating unforgettable memories. Thank you very much.

I think those who participated in the Masashi Nature School (where staff took photos that can be viewed later) were quite lucky. I highly recommend it. I would like to use this service again the next time I visit the Big Island.

夏ということもあり、15:30にホテルへピックアップ。全部で5つほどのホテルを回りました。
マウナケアに登っている途中も、途中休憩をとったりしながら火山台地で写真を撮りつつ車に揺られ、1時間半でオニヅカセンターへ。

そこで日本食のお弁当をいただきました。お味噌汁つきで感動しました。

その後、温かい服を上下、帽子と身に着け、頂上へ。
頂上では、展望台の詳しい説明とともに、サンセットの写真、そしてマウナケア山頂のテロップを持って、記念写真などいろいろ写真をとっていただけました。

その後、少し下った風があまりない場所での天体観測。
わかりやすい説明、そして写真を撮っていただけ、一生モノの思い出ができました。ありがとうございました。

マサシネイチャースクールに参加された方(スタッフが撮った写真があとで見れるなど)はかなりラッキーだと思います。おすすめです。また次回ハワイ島に来た際は利用したいです。

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>

Traditional Hawaiian Luau! 伝統的なハワイアンルアウ!

Reviewed by: やまちゃん&ゆみちゃん

This was our fourth trip to Hawaii as a couple, and it was our first time on the Big Island. I was really looking forward to seeing an authentic outdoor luau show for the first time as well. Overall, it was excellent.

I had checked reviews beforehand about the need to "line up before entering the venue," so after checking into our hotel (it was the night of our arrival, and we were staying at the King Kamehameha), we took care of the process right away. They gave us a paper with the reception time, but even though we arrived about 30 minutes early, there was quite a line! Most of the audience were Westerners, with only about 20% being Japanese. Normally, it seems that Japanese guests are seated together, which allows for taking photos and chatting, but we were seated at a table with only Westerners, with no Japanese guests at all...

We were seated at one of the end seats in the front row facing the stage, which was very calming. We could see the ocean and the Ahuena Heiau in the background, and we had a great view of the dancers' entrance scenes, which made us very satisfied.

I wanted to experience the traditional imu ceremony at least once, and it was good, but after experiencing it once, I think I'm okay with it... (The smell was quite strong since they steam the pig at high temperatures.)

The food was traditional and served buffet-style, so we could enjoy a variety of dishes. The drinks were all-you-can-drink, which was nice, but since our table was at the front, it was quite a trek to get to the drink station.

They also showcased dances from neighboring islands, which was great. As a fellow hula dancer, I was able to observe from various angles, and it was a good learning experience.

Unfortunately, it started to rain heavily during the show, and it ended quite a bit earlier than scheduled, which was a bit disappointing.

Overall, I was a bit anxious about not having any Japanese guests around, but we still had a great time, so it was very good.

夫婦でのハワイ旅行は、4度目にして、初めてのハワイ島でした。
また、屋外での、本格的なルアウショーを観るのも初めてでしたので、とても楽しみにしていました。
結果としては、◎でした。

「会場に入るまで並ぶ」というのを事前にクチコミでチェックしていたので、ホテルチェックイン後(到着日の夜だったのと、ちょうど宿泊先がキングカメハメハだったので)すぐに、手続きをしました。
受付時間を書いた紙をその場でくれたのですが、それでも、少し早めの30分前位に会場へ行ったにも関わらず、結構並んでいました!!
観覧客はほとんどが欧米人で、日本人は2割位だったかと思います。
また、通常は、日本人は日本人同士でテーブルセッティングしてくださるみたいですが(写真を撮り合ったり、お話したりできるから)、私達夫婦は、日本人がひとりもいない、欧米人のみのテーブルへ通されました・・・

ステージ側の前の方の、一番端の席だったため、とても落ち着き、バックには海とアフエナヘイアウ、ダンサーたちの登場シーンもよく見ることができ、とても満足でした。

伝統的なイムセレモニーは、一度は経験したかったので、よかったですが、一度経験すれば、もういいかな。。。
(豚さんを高温で蒸し焼きするので、匂いがかなりきつかったのです)

お食事は伝統的なもので、ビュッフェ式でしたので、いろいろ楽しめました。
ドリンクも飲み放題で、こちらもよかったのですが、テーブルが前の方だったので、その分、ドリンクの所へたどり着くまでが、とても遠かったです。

ハワイだけでなく、近隣の島々の踊りも織り交ぜながら、披露してくださいます。
同じフラダンサーとしては、いろいろな角度から、観させていただき、よい勉強になりました。

途中で雨がたくさん降ってきてしまい、時間よりもかなり早く終わってしまい、それが少し残念でした。

全体的には、日本人が周りにいなくて不安はありましたが(^^ゞ
それでも楽しめたので、とてもよかったです。

Big Island Lei Greeting Service at Kona Airport - Hawaiian Floral Necklace

There is a first for everything...

Reviewed by: Erin

I very much enjoyed the unique oppurunity to be greeted in Hawaii by a Hawaiian native. The lei greeting was fantastic, albeit, I was not expecting to have to walk through the whole terminal to find the greeter. I still highly recommend this for any first timer, honeymooners and if you're in a group. This is an excellent way to start a vacation and you can create memories right off the start. The lei was very beautiful and the scent was heavenly, my only wish was that I had received instruction on how to maintain the lei so that it would not fall apart and then wither.

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>

It was certainly amazing. 確かに凄かった

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

As rumored, the power of seeing a manta up close was incredible.

One thing to note is to not forget your motion sickness medication. You might get seasick.

One point of concern is that for the first 30 minutes or so, you cruise around the bay before starting to prepare to see the mantas. It's unclear whether you're waiting in line because of many competing companies or for some other reason, but cruising around the bay at sunset was not interesting at all...

噂どおり、間近で見るマンタの迫力は凄い迫力でした。

注意点としては、酔い止めを忘れない事。
多分船酔いします。

気になった点として、最初の30分ぐらいは湾内を船で周回(クルーズ?)してからマンタを見る準備をはじめます。
競合他社が多い為に順番待ちをしているのか、何なのか不明ですが、陽が沈んだ湾内をクルーズしても何も面白くありませんでした…。

Reply from activity provider

Thank you for participating in the night snorkeling with manta rays. We are delighted to hear that you were able to see wild mantas up close.

Regarding your feedback about the first 30 minutes of the cruise, we confirmed with the operating company that this time is typically used for explanations and changing clothes. Additionally, when anchoring the boat in the sea, we take into account the sea conditions and the state of the coral reefs, so please understand that it may take a bit longer depending on the day's circumstances.

We look forward to serving you again.

この度は、マンタと泳ぐナイト・シュノーケリングにご参加いただき有難うございます。
野生のマンタを間近でご覧いただけたようで、嬉しく思っております。

なお、ご指摘いただいておりますクルーズ最初の30分間につきましては、催行会社に確認をとったところ、最初の30分間は通常説明を行ったり着替える時間となっているとのことでした。また海で船を停泊する際に、海の状況やサンゴ礁の状態を考慮しながら対応しておりますので、その日の状況により多少時間がかかってしまう場合もありますことご了承ください。

またのご利用心よりお待ちしております。

Reviewed by: hazuki

I heard that you can swim with dolphins, but I was not expecting to be able to swim so close to them, which was truly moving.

I think the small number of participants is also an appeal of this tour. If you're lucky, you might even swim with manta rays. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any manta rays, but we were completely satisfied with just the dolphins.

For those meeting on-site, the meeting location is a bit hard to find, so it's important to confirm it.

イルカと泳げると聞いてましたが、こんなに近くで泳げると思ってませんでしたので感動しました。

参加人数が少ないのも、こちらのツアーの魅力だと思います。運が良ければマンタとも泳げるそうです。私達は残念ながらマンタに会えませんでしたが、イルカだけで大満足でした。

Starry Sky Observation Tour I Joined Despite Worrying About the Cold

The constellations were so visible that I felt as if I were in outer space, and I was filled with childlike excitement. Especially, the Milky Way, which is not so clearly visible in Japan, made me feel romantic as I thought about how the stars Hikoboshi and Orihime could cross over. The moon looked like a crayon that I could almost touch, and there were countless stars to count. Each constellation observation was enjoyable thanks to the staff's easy-to-understand explanations, which made me forget about the cold. Next time I go, I will visit to see the seasonal constellations that I missed this time. Thank you for the wonderful time!

Hawaiian Canoe Paddling Tour Adventure from Waikoloa on Hawaii Island - Hulakai

I Love Canoe surfing!!

Reviewed by: mynmgh1

We've been to Hawaii several times, but this is the first time we canoe surfed. This was such a fun activity, and since we purchased it on sale, the value was great! The men who guided us were so nice! They were so friendly and knowledgeable. Not only was it fun, but extremely interesting. They told us a lot of history about outrigger canoeing. The tour was supposed to be a half an hour, but lasted about an hour. Just a heads up you will paddle so there is a bit of exercise (nothing outlandish). Also, if you get sea sick you may want to take Dramamine, since you have to wait for waves just floating there. I would love to do this again!!

I thoroughly enjoyed it. 満喫しました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

There were other dolphin tours available, but the limited number of participants was a deciding factor for me. The staff were very accommodating, which made me feel secure participating in the tour. There was one child who joined with their mother, and I appreciated how well the staff interacted with the child.

I was able to see many dolphins up close (the staff were shouting from the boat, directing us to look this way and that. It's surprising how you might miss them even when you're right next to them), and it was a very enjoyable tour. I will definitely participate again when I visit the Big Island.

The staff seemed to almost forget to collect the fees from the participants on the day, so that might be why there were no snacks provided. However, we did receive juice. Well, that's not something I was primarily expecting, so it wasn't a problem at all, but I wanted to mention it for future reference.

I had a great time. Thank you very much.

他にもイルカのツアーはありましたが、定員の数が少ないというのも決め手でした。スタッフのみなさんの対応も大変よくて安心してツアーに参加できました。ひとり、お子さんがお母さんと参加していましたが、そのお子さんに対するスタッフさんの対応も気持ちがよくて私は好きでした。

たくさんのイルカを間近でみることができ(スタッフさんも海の中、船の上からこっち、あっち~と叫んでくださいます。そばにいても意外と気づかなかったりするものなんですね)とても楽しいツアーでした。ハワイ島に行ったらまたぜひ参加します。

当日参加の方の代金の回収すら忘れちゃいそうになってるスタッフさんだったのでその延長かもしれませんが、スナックはありませんでしたね。ジュースはいただきましたけれど。まあ、そこはメインで期待している部分ではないので全然問題ないですが一応記載事項でしたので今後のためにも書いておきます。

The stargazing was done in a unique location just for this tour, and I was able to see Saturn's rings through the telescope. I was thrilled that the staff even took a photo of Saturn for us. The guide mentioned that this tour had the latest return time, and they really took their time with us, making it worth participating. I highly recommend it!

ハワイ島 オーシャンラフティング&シュノーケルリングツアー <英語ガイド/食事付き>

Close to the sea! 海を間近に!

Reviewed by: kenchan

It was a lot of fun to enjoy multiple activities on one optional tour. We had plenty of time for banana boating, dolphin watching, exploring historical sites, and snorkeling among coral and many fish, which left us very satisfied. Although there were no whales in August, many dolphins came close to the boat, making it feel like we could touch them. There were quite a few baby dolphins as well. We were the only Japanese people there, but there was a staff member named GEN who understood a bit of Japanese, so explanations about the caves were fine. Before departure, they provided us with a Japanese guidebook at the office, which helped us understand even though we aren't very good at English. It was surprising that even those who couldn't swim were able to snorkel with the staff's guidance. On the way out, we relaxed in the back seats of the boat, but on the return trip, for some reason, we ended up in the very front, speeding over the waves, which caused a lot of jolting and a roller coaster-like up-and-down motion that was tough on the back. My arms were exhausted from gripping the rope tightly. Everyone was cheering and having a great time. I had muscle soreness for a couple of days, but I want to go again to see the beautiful sea.

一つのオプショナルツアーで複数のアクティビティを満喫できるとてもたのしいものでした。バナナボート的、イルカウォッチング、旧跡めぐり的、珊瑚や多くの魚がいる素潜りなどそれぞれがたっぷりと時間とってくれて大満足でした。8月で鯨はいませんでしたが触れそうな感じにボートにたくさんのイルカが寄ってきます。赤ん坊連れのイルカもかなりいました。日本人は私たち夫婦だけでしたが、日本語が少し分かるスタッフGENちゃんがいたので洞窟等の説明も大丈夫でした。出発前に日本語の解説書をオフィスでくれましたので英語の得意でない私たちでも理解できました。泳げない人でもスタッフの指導でシュノーケリングできるようになったのはびっくりでした。ボートも行きは後ろの席でのんびりと、帰りは何故か一番前になって波の上を高速で行くもんだからガンガンと衝撃がキツいのとジェットコースターみたいな大きな上下動で腰にきます。腕もロープを必死でにぎるのでヘロヘロになった。みんなで声を出して大はしゃぎでした。二・三日筋肉痛でしたがまた行きたい、綺麗な海を見に。

綺麗な魚を近くに見ることができ、大興奮でした。

ケビンさん、ノニさんお二人共とても親切で優しくて、
カメラを持って行っていなかった私たちの為に写真をたくさん撮ってくれて、データまで頂き、最後までとても親切でした。
ありがとうございました。

Waikoloa Glass Bottom Boat Scenic Cruise with Ocean Sports - Kids 5 Years Old and Under Ride Free!

Glass Bottom Boat

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We had a great time. We were not sure what to expect. The staff was very friendly and full of information. We were able to see Manta Rays and Giant Turtles and many fish. Would recommend for 1st timers to the island. For repeat visitors, a longer boat ride would be recommended as our 30 minutes went by very quickly.

ハワイ島 オーシャンラフティング&シュノーケルリングツアー <英語ガイド/食事付き>

It was fun! 楽しかった♪

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I was able to see dolphins jumping nearby many times.
I also enjoyed snorkeling.
The guide knows some basic Japanese words, so there is no danger, but the announcements are in fluent English at a normal speed.

すぐ近くでジャンプするイルカに何度も会えました。
シュノーケルも楽しみました。
ガイドが日本語の単語は知っている(最低限)ので危険はありませんが、アナウンスは普通のスピードの流ちょうな英語です。

マウナケア山頂 サンセット&星空観測ツアー <午後/天体望遠鏡/夕食付/英語ガイド> by ハワイフォレスト&トレイル

Shooting stars are flowing everywhere. 流れ星流れまくり

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I don't think you can see so many stars anywhere else in Japan. It was really cold, but both the sunset and the starry sky were incredibly beautiful.

Since I'm not very knowledgeable about stars, I think I only understood about half of the explanations in English. I couldn't book a Japanese tour, so I went with this one, but I wish I had studied a bit before going.

日本であんなに星がいっぱいみれることはないと思います。
すごく寒かったけど、サンセットも星空もすごくきれいでした。

星に詳しくないのもあり、英語での説明は半分ぐらいしか理解できてないと思います。
日本語のツアーが取れなかったので、こちらにしたのですが、行く前に少しは勉強していけばよかったと思うぐらいです。

ワイピオ渓谷 乗馬ツアー 絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験 <午前・午後/英語ガイド> by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

Horseback riding experience in Waipi'o Valley. ワイピオ渓谷で乗馬体験

Reviewed by: 山本裕治

This was our second time participating as a couple. For us ordinary folks, horseback riding seems like a dream, but it's quite normal in Hawaii.
I’m 59 years old, but I was called by name by the instructor, Yuji, who is much younger than me. At first, I felt a bit resistant, but the staff was very kind, and it made me feel like I was in America.
There’s a tour that costs nearly $100 to go down to Waipi'o Valley, but this horseback riding experience takes you down to Waipi'o Valley and includes riding for just over $80, which I think is quite reasonable. However, it’s a meet-up and disperse arrangement. We were the only Japanese there.
We got to ride for about two hours, and the view of Waipi'o's nature from horseback is absolutely wonderful. The perspective from the horse is quite high, a height I haven’t experienced much before. We walked through rough terrain and even deep water (up to the horse's knees), which was an incredible experience. It was thrilling, wondering if everything would be okay. My wife seemed very satisfied and had a great expression on her face. We plan to go again next year.
By the way, even if it's your first time riding, the horses are well-trained, so you can feel safe. I highly recommend this to everyone.

 今回は夫婦で2回目の参加です。私達庶民夫婦には乗馬なんか夢のような話ですが、ハワイでは普通に出来てしまいます。
 私は59歳ですがユウジ、ユウジと私よりもズーット若いインストラクターに名前で呼ばれていました。最初は抵抗あったのですが対応も親切でここはアメリカかと感じました。
 また、ワイピオ渓谷まで降りるのに100ドル近くかかるツアーがあるのですが、この乗馬はワイピオ渓谷まで降りてしかも乗馬をして80数ドルでかなり安いと思います。ただし、現地集合、解散です。日本人は私達だけでした。
 2時間ほどみっちり乗馬ができ、馬上から見るワイピオの自然は最高に素晴らしいです。馬の上からの目線はかなり高く、あまり体験したことがない高さです。悪路や川の中をかなり深いところまで(馬の膝あたり)馬で歩くのですが何ともすごい体験です。大丈夫かなとスリル満点です。妻もかなり満足そうでいい顔していました。また来年行くつもりです。
 ちなみに、乗馬は初めてでも馬がよく訓練されているので安心です。私は皆さんに是非お勧めします。

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

snorkeling experience シュノーケリング体験

Reviewed by: miya

Hello, this is Miya.
On June 30th, I went on a snorkeling cruise to Kealakekua Bay on the Big Island (with breakfast and lunch included).
Five years ago, I went on an evening plan, so this was my second experience as I wanted to see the beautiful sea in the morning.
On the Fair Wind, I enjoyed a tour of the Big Island where Japanese was not spoken.
The weather was cloudy, but it was great because I could see well underwater without getting sunburned.
I particularly enjoyed the colorful tropical fish that gather in the shallow waters, and it was a great experience for families who are not strong swimmers, from a 4-year-old child to a 65-year-old lady.
Especially, the free rental of bodyboards to peek underwater was very popular.
The slide extending from the second floor feels high at first, but elementary school students can enjoy it without any problems.
I hesitated a bit at the diving board, but next time I want to dive in headfirst.
For meals, breakfast included bread and fruit, and for lunch, we had BBQ hamburgers cooked on the boat.
The hamburgers eaten in the beautiful sea were incredibly delicious.

こんにちは。miyaです。
6月30日に、ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾へのシュノーケルクルーズ(朝食・昼食付き) に行ってきました。
5年前に行った時は、夕方のプランだったので、午前中の綺麗な海を見たく、2度目の体験です。
フェアウィンド号では、日本語が通じないというハワイ島のツアーを満喫出来ました。
天気は曇りでしたが、日焼けをしない中でも、水中は良く見えて良かったです。
特に浅瀬に集まる熱帯特有の色とりどりの魚を楽しむ事もでき、泳ぎが得意ではないファミリーや、4歳の子どもから、65歳のおばさんまで満喫出来ました。
特に、水中を覗けるボディーボードを無料でレンタル出来て好評でした。
2階席からのびている滑り台は、最初高さを感じますが、小学生ならば問題なく楽しめます。
飛び込み台は、少し躊躇してしまいますが、次回は頭から綺麗に飛び込みたいです。
食事は、朝食は、パンとフルーツ、昼食は、船の上で焼いたBBQは、ハンバーガーとして食べました。
綺麗な海で食べるハンバーガーは大変おいしかったです。
