Manta Night Snorkeling マンタナイトシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: ひろみん

There were probably over 30 people participating on the same boat, but it was far too small to accommodate that many... We were packed in so tightly that there was hardly any space between the seats, and I was quite close to the person next to me.

同じ船で参加した方々が恐らく30人を超えていたのですが、30人乗るにはとても小さすぎる船でした…
いすの隙間がなくなるほど、ギチギチに座り、隣の方とかなり密着してました。

Aloha,
We usually operate at about 80% capacity, but it seems that on the day of your visit, there was a mix-up with the date, and some customers joined us, causing congestion.
We apologize for not being able to provide you with a comfortable experience.

The Oceanfront Royal Kona Luau was so beautiful. I would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to see a beautiful sunset and a great performance. I absolutely loved the ambiance and the show. The food and food service was just ok and the event felt very touristy, so many people.

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

I was a little tired, but it was very fun. ちょっと疲れたけどとても楽しかったです

Reviewed by: たかちゃん

I participated in a sea kayaking tour that started at 8 AM on August 1st. After getting on the kayak, I lost my balance and capsized within five minutes, but this turned out to be a good experience, as I was able to paddle smoothly afterward. The waves weren't too strong, and I was able to explore the underwater cave (Dragon's Throat), which was a great experience. Since it was just the two of us this time, Noni provided us with complete support. Thank you very much! After returning to the hotel in the afternoon, I was so tired that I slept well until dinner, but I really enjoyed it. I would love to participate again when I go to the Big Island. By the way, we are a couple in our late 50s, but we had no issues with physical stamina.

8月1日朝8時の集合でシーカヤック参加してきました。
乗り込んで、5分もせずバランスを崩して見事ひっくり返りましたが、これがいい経験になったのか、そのあとは順調にこぐことができました。
波もそんなになくて、海中洞窟(ドラコンスロート)にもしっかり入ってみることができとてもよい経験ができました。
今回は私たち2人だけの参加だったので、ノニさんに完全サポートをしていただきました。ありがとうございました!
昼過ぎにホテルに帰った後は、夕食までしっかり眠るほど疲れていたみたいですが、本当に楽しかったです。
また、ハワイ島に行ったら参加したいです。
ちなみに、50代後半の夫婦ですが、体力的には問題なかったです。

4.5-Hour Sea Paradise Premium Kealakekua Bay Snorkel Tour with Breakfast & Lunch

Great trip!

Reviewed by: TRK

A smooth sail and comfortable ride. The crew was very professional and knowledgeable. I didn't think I'd want a pool noodle...but get the pool noodle. It helps alot unless you plan to free dive. The food and drinks were good and sandwiches are fine for a boat trip. Don't expect fine dining. Plenty of room on board, even if you feel it might fill up with guests. The crew was there to keep the boat clean as well. I'd recommend getting there early for parking, as there's only street parking and you might have to walk to get to the launch. Beautiful boat. Enjoyed the trip! Thanks!

Hawaii Manta Ray Sunset & Night Time Snorkel Experience from Kona - Iruka

10/10 Amazing Experience

Reviewed by: Mayra Mateo

The crew was awesome! They made sure everyone was safe and made accommodations for those that needed it. I hope those that needed a little extra help also appreciate them because they did an amazing job! We saw at least 7 mantas that night. It’s one thing seeing them at the zoo and another snorkeling with them. Towards the last 10 minutes of the session, we had 4 mantas doing flips under our floating matt. It was so mesmerizing! Such beautiful creatures! Would definitely do it again in the future! 10/10

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>

I was able to meet a manta ray. マンタに会うことができました。

Reviewed by: まこちゃん

A few years ago, we entered the water slightly earlier (just before the sunset was complete) and got out before it was completely dark. Still, we were lucky enough to have manta rays come close, which was exciting. This time, there were only about two, rather than many.

There was a sense that the four guides, including the captain, were enjoying themselves, which made it a fun experience. Actually, while I was looking underwater, they were doing their best to explain things above the float, but I had my ears in the water and missed most of it. I thought it would be good to master the technique of having my face in the water while keeping my ears out of it...

数年前のツアーと比べて若干早め(ちょうど夕日が沈み切る直前)から水に入り、完全に暗くなる前位に水から上がりました。それでも、幸運にもマンタが近づいてきてくれて興奮でした。今回は多数というよりは2匹?位ではありましたが。
何となく船長を含め4名のガイド自らが楽しんでいる感があって楽しい気分になることができました、、、実は水中を見ているとき、フロートの上で一生懸命説明をしてくれていたのですが、水中に耳をつけてしまっていてほとんど聞きそびれてしまいました。顔は水の中、耳は水の外、、って技を身につけておくといいと思いました。。。

Sea Quest Kealakekua Bay Snorkel Tour & Rafting Sea Cave Expedition

Amazing experience

Reviewed by: Laurie H

I went on the deluxe snorkeling trip with my husband and five of my young adult children. We all loved it! Captain Steve did a fantastic job showing us sea caves and other interesting sites. We ended up in the midst of a pod of dolphins and saw some pilot whales. For all of us it was our first time snorkeling and Captain Steve and his crew made our first experience incredible. They even helped my son who can’t swim get comfortable with snorkeling using a life vest and noodle so by the second snorkeling stop he was a pro. We saw so many fish, eels, and a few sea turtles. I truly can’t say enough good things about the crew and the whole experience. One of the best of my life! I will definitely return!

私たちは、脆弱なサンゴ礁を保護するために、約25〜30フィートの水深で停泊します。ゲストがボートの近くにいると、残念ながらオープンウォーターでは魚が少なくなります。
安全ブリーフィング中に、クルーはゲストに対して、サンゴや魚が豊富な約10〜15フィートの水深で岸に近づいて泳ぐように指示します。

Thank you for joining us!
We moor in about 25-30 feet of water in order to protect the fragile coral reef. When guests stay near the boat unfortunately the fish are less plentiful in the open water.
During our safety briefing our crew instructs guests to swim closer to shore in about 10-15 feet of water where the coral and fish are plentiful.

We spent 8 days on the big island and participated in a number of guided activities (submarine, luau, snorkling, parasail, zip lines) This was by far the most enjoyable. The staff was excellent.

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

Awesome time!

Reviewed by: Christine

My husband, kids (11 and 13) and I ended our time in Hawaii with the morning kayak/snorkel trip with Ocean Safari. It ended up being our favorite adventure of our time on the Big Island. The trip includes a kayaking on the ocean and in to caves (weather permitting), snorkeling and the option for cliff jumps if you're brave enough. No experience needed! The guides tell you all you need to know about kayaking. They supply the snorkeling equipment, life vest, water/snacks and share the tips you need to know (like your sunglasses do not float so leave your favorites behind). So bring yourself and slather on the sunscreen for a great time!

Shout out to Alex and Brent, our guides. They were fabulous!

Beautiful Scenery

Reviewed by: Clint W

Water was calm so kayaking was relatively easy. Water was beautiful alongside the black lava rock cliffs. We saw a large sea cave and those who were brave enough were able to jump off the top of it into the water. I’m guessing it was a 40ft jump. We also had a smaller cliff to jump from I’m guessing about 25ft tall. The snorkeling was good too again in calm waters. Very enjoyable and would do again. Wear plenty of sunscreen.
