An emotional experience!!!! 感動体験!!!!

Reviewed by: Ocutie

Daisuke, who jokingly said, "I'm a dolphin otaku, so I know everything about dolphins!" was indeed telling the truth! We encountered a pod right after we set sail. He seemed to really understand the dolphins, pointing out where they were and when they would jump. It felt like a dream to swim with countless dolphins. In the end, we had such a fulfilling experience that we reluctantly had to wrap it up due to time constraints. Since they are wild dolphins, it might have been lucky to see so many, but I believe Daisuke's guiding skills played a significant role as well! Thank you very much.

「僕はイルカオタクだから~。イルカちゃんのことは何でもわかるよー♪」と冗談気に話していたダイスケさん。本当でした! 出港してからすぐに群れに遭遇。あそこにいるから、ここでジャンプするから、などなど、イルカの声を聞いては、本当に理解していた様でビックリ。数え切れないほどのイルカちゃん達と泳げて、何だか夢の中にいた様な…。最後は時間切れで渋々切り上げるほどの充実ぶりでした。野生のイルカなので、沢山会えるのはラッキーだったのかもしれませんが、ダイスケさんのガイド力も大きかったと思います! ありがとうございました。

With the refreshing feeling of the early morning, I was able to review how to paddle a kayak and was safely guided out to the open sea. It had been a while since I exercised, so I was quite tired, but I thoroughly enjoyed kayaking and snorkeling. Thank you very much.

I made eye contact with a dolphin. It was thrilling! イルカと目があいました　ドキドキです。　

Reviewed by: KAJIKAJI

As soon as we set off, we met a turtle, and within ten minutes, we dove at a point filled with dolphins both to the side and directly below us, which was quite an adrenaline rush. When I turned to the side, a mother and baby dolphin swam by slowly, as if saying, "Hello." Our guide, Dai-chan, advised us in the car that it’s good to be aware with our "third eye," which made the experience feel quite mystical with the dolphins. I would love to experience this again in Kona.

出発して、すぐに亀さんに会い、１０分もしないうちにポイントでダイブ、横も、真下もいるかだらけで、かなりアドレナリンでました。ふと横を向いたら、親子のイルカさんが、「こんにちは」と言ってくれてるような視線でゆっくりと泳いでいきました。ガイドのダイちゃんが、第三の目で意識するといいですよと、迎えの車のなかでアドバイスをくれたので、なんだか、不思議な気分をイルカさんと過ごした感じです。また、コナで体験したいです。

Private dolphin show. イルカショー独り占め

Reviewed by: しょうたママ

We had a reservation at 8:45. It was a windy day and the water temperature was low, so it was a bit chilly, but the activity of being able to touch dolphins is unique to this place, and my 4-year-old son was really looking forward to it! The instructor was kind and friendly! She taught us where the dolphin's ears, eyes, and nose are, gently touched its belly, and fed it fish. At my son's signal, the dolphin would make sounds and jump, making us feel like we had the dolphin show all to ourselves! It was only 15 minutes, but it was fulfilling!

8:45からの予約でした。風が強い日で水温も低くて、少し寒かったですが、イルカに触れることができるアクティビティはここでしかないので、4歳の息子は楽しみにしておりました！
インストラクターのお姉さんも優しく、親切！
イルカの耳や目や鼻はココにあるよと教えてくれたり、おなかを優しく触ったり、お魚を食べさせてあげたり、子どもの合図で、イルカが鳴いたり、ジャンプしたり、イルカショーを独り占めした気分でしたよ〜^ ^
たったの15分でしたが、充実しました❗️

I participated in a dolphin tour for the first time. The weather was great, and on the day we joined, we were able to see so many dolphins in just one dive. A mother and baby dolphin swam right in front of us, and they were so cute.

There were so many dolphins that I didn't know where to look; it was really busy (laughs). I was so moved by the number of dolphins, even more than I expected.

After the tour, we were given information about a beach where we could see sea turtles, and we were able to meet them safely, making up for last year's experience. Thank you very much!

We participated as a group of three, and all three of us said we want to join again. It was a very satisfying tour, and I'm really glad we participated. Thank you for your great support, Mr. Nawata and Mr. Daisuke. Thank you!

初めてイルカツアーに参加しました。
天候にも恵まれ、私たちが参加した日は一回のダイブで本当にたくさんのイルカに会う事ができました。目の前をイルカの親子が通ったり、本当に可愛かったです。
あまりにたくさんのイルカがいたので、どっちを見たらいいのか、すごく忙しかったです（笑）。予想以上のイルカにすごく感動しました。
ツアーが終わってからも、ウミガメに会えるビーチを教えていただき、無事ウミガメにも会え、去年のリベンジができました。ありがとうございました！

The encounter with the dolphin I had been dreaming of. And... 夢に見ていたイルカちゃんとの出会い。そして・・・

Reviewed by: ｈ＆ｍ

Since I was a child, I dreamed of swimming with wild dolphins, and that dream came true on the Big Island of Hawaii!!!!

When Daisuke said, "I think you'll meet them soon today," I was so excited that I felt like jumping up right there. Since they are wild dolphins, I knew that whether I would actually see them was uncertain, but still, I was filled with the desire to meet them.

It had been a long time since I last snorkeled, and I was a bit anxious about whether I could breathe properly underwater. When I first entered the sea, I felt a bit flustered, but once I felt the reassurance of Daisuke being right beside me and providing solid support, all my fear and anxiety quickly disappeared.

And soon after we got into the water, we encountered dolphins!!! I was so excited to see the dolphins swimming slowly. I couldn't help but tense up. However, Daisuke told me that the most important thing was to completely relax, so from the second half of our time, I swam with the dolphins multiple times, feeling relaxed and at ease.

Of course, since they are wild dolphins, their swimming speed varies at different times. But I think that’s part of the fun of being with wild dolphins.

Anyway, the dolphins are just too cute. I could even hear the sound of dolphins "quee-quee" underwater. It was so moving!!!!

Above all, I was amazed by Daisuke's incredible ability to love and understand dolphins, catching their presence even when they were out of sight. When he said, "Get ready to enter the water," we were able to encounter dolphins just as he said. It felt like magic.

It seemed like Daisuke could really communicate with the dolphins, as they always came close to him and danced together. I realized that love truly gets conveyed. The dolphins looked like they were having fun swimming with Daisuke, and of course, he radiated happiness. And we participants felt it too. It was a space filled with love and happiness. I felt the healing power of the dolphins deeply, and Daisuke's aura naturally energized me. When we got out of the water, I felt warm-hearted thanks to the captain's kindness in helping us up from the boat. It was a tour filled with laughter and excitement.

In the end, we encountered a scene where the captain quickly spotted a boat that had engine trouble and called out to help with the rescue. Daisuke's words, "It's normal to help each other in times of trouble," reminded me of something so obvious yet so important. I am filled with gratitude that we were able to meet so many dolphins thanks to guides like Daisuke and the captain.

I want to refer to the method Daisuke taught me for surely realizing dreams and continue to pursue my dreams one by one. I hope to swim with the dolphins again someday under Daisuke's guidance.

Thank you so much, Daisuke, the captain, and all the participants who shared such a happy time with me!

I wholeheartedly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to swim with dolphins on the Big Island!

小さい頃から、野生のイルカと泳ぎたいと夢をみていたけど、
ハワイ島で、その夢が叶いました！！！！

ダイスケさんから、「今日はすぐに出会えると思うよ～」と言われた時、
もう嬉しくてその場で飛び上がりそうに。
野生のイルカだから、本当に会えるかはその時にしか分からないというのは
念頭に置きながらも、でもやっぱり、会いたい気持でいっぱい。

シュノーケリングは小さいころやった以来で、
海の中で呼吸ちゃんと出来るかなぁという不安で、最初海に入った時は
ちょっと焦り気味だったんだけど、ダイスケさんがそばにいてくれて、しっかり
フォローしてくれる安心感を感じてからは、怖さや不安なんてすぐに吹っ飛んでいました。

そして、海に出てから早々にイルカと遭遇！！！
ゆっくりと泳いでくれるイルカたちに、もう興奮MAX。
つい力がはいっちゃう。
でも、ダイスケさんに一番大切なことは、力を完全に抜くことだと言われたので、
後半からは、力を抜きリラックスした気持でイルカと何回も一緒に泳ぎました。

当然、野生のイルカ達なので、泳ぐスピードはその時々違う。
でも、だからこそ野生のイルカなんだなぁと感じれることも楽しさの１つな気がします。

とにかく、イルカちゃん可愛すぎる～。
ちゃんと海の中で、「キューキュー」と泣くイルカの声も聞こえます。
感動！！！！

そして、何よりイルカを愛し、イルカのことを知り尽くし、
姿が見えないのにイルカの存在をすぐにキャッチするダイスケさんの凄さに圧巻。
はい、海に入る準備して～と言われて入るとダイスケさんの言った通りに
イルカに遭遇することができる。もう魔法にかかったみたい。

ダイスケさん、本当にイルカと会話出来るみたいで、ダイスケさんのそばにはいつも
イルカが寄ってきて、一緒にダンス♪
愛する心は、ちゃんと伝わるんだなぁと実感しました。
イルカちゃんも、ダイスケさんと泳げて楽しそう♪ダイスケさんももちろん
HAPPYオーラ全開♪そして私たち参加者も。
愛とHAPPYしかない空間。
イルカの癒し力を心から感じ、ダイスケさんのオーラに自然とこっちまで元気になって、
海からあがる時、船上から手を伸ばしてあがるの手助けしてくれるキャプテンの優しさに
心が温かくなり、もうずっと笑いっぱなし、興奮しっぱなしのツアーでした。

最後、エンジントラブルで海の上で動けなくなった船をキャプテンがすかさず見つけて、
声を掛け、救助活動といった場面にも遭遇。
ダイスケさんの「困った時は助け合うのが普通だからね」といった言葉に、
当たり前の事なんだけど、再度その大切なことを再認識させられました。
こういうキャプテンや、ダイスケさんがガイドしてくれるツアーだから、
今回たくさんのイルカちゃんたちに出会えたんだろうなぁと感謝の気持でいっぱいです。

ダイスケさんが教えてくれた、夢を確実に叶えていく方法を参考に、
これからも１つ１つ夢を追っていきたいなぁと思います。
またいつか、ダイスケさんのガイドのもと、イルカちゃんたちと泳ぎたいな。

ダイスケさん、キャプテン、そして一緒にHAPPYな時間を共有させて頂いた参加者の方、
最高に幸せな時間をありがとうございました！！！！

ハワイ島でイルカと泳ぎたい方には、心からおすすめのツアーです☆

I went on the night of the day I arrived in Hawaii Island after transferring from Kansai to Tokyo.
I was tired from the long journey and couldn't fight off my sleepiness, so I regretfully had to give up halfway through and couldn't see it until the end (>_<). It was disappointing (>_<).

However, the performances by the dancers and the band were wonderful and great (^_^).

The whole roasted pig was also amazing.

If the food had been a bit more substantial, it would have been even better, so I gave this rating.

Encountered wild manta rays! 野生のマンタと遭遇！

Reviewed by: とんとん

We gathered at the meeting point in the evening! The location provided after checking into the hotel was a bit unclear, and I ended up being slightly late. However, when I contacted the tour company, they responded kindly.

Upon arriving at the meeting point, I met the staff and other participants of the tour for the first time. There were not only Japanese people but also participants from overseas, and we chatted as we set off on the boat. I was excited to hear from the staff that if we spotted a manta ray for the first time and took a picture, we could name it!

Surprisingly, as we moved quickly, we witnessed a large sun setting over the ocean! While enjoying drinks, we gradually approached the sun as it sank into the sea, and we were able to take our time watching the sunset and capturing photos from the boat.

After it got dark, we all entered the water and encountered manta rays! I was able to swim closely with a large manta ray! I took pictures of the manta ray with my digital camera. On the way back, we enjoyed light snacks and had fun chatting with the staff and other participants, savoring the experience of the manta rays. It was a wonderful experience unique to the Big Island that I couldn't have in my daily life!!!

夕方に現地に集合！ホテルチェックイン後に連絡した際に教えてもらった集合場所がややわかりにくく、迷い集合時間を少し過ぎてしまいました。しかし、ツアー会社へ連絡すると、丁寧に対応していただきました。

現地へ集合すると、スタッフの方、一緒にツアーに行く人と初対面しました。日本人だけではなく、海外の方も参加しており、いろいろ話をしながら、船で出発しました。スタッフさんから、はじめてマンタを

その後は暗くなってから、みんなで海に入り、マンタと遭遇！大きいマンタとじっくり泳ぐことができました！持参したデシタルカメラで、マンタの

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

It was more fun than I imagined. 想像以上に楽しかった

Reviewed by: たろいもちゃん

We participated in the morning tour as a couple. Three days before the tour, I made a reconfirmation call from the front desk of our hotel (King Kamehameha), but we struggled to communicate (neither of us speaks much English), so we had to ask a hotel staff member to assist us.

On the day of the tour, we took a taxi to the meeting point, which cost about $30 (including tip). After checking in, we received some instructions from the tour guide in front of the boat, but since there was no roof, it was very hot, and I was worried about getting sunburned.

It took about an hour to reach the snorkeling spot. During that time, we could help ourselves to breakfast items like muffins, croissants, and fruits. After that, the tour staff came around to lend us fins, so we communicated our shoe sizes (in US sizes).

When we arrived at the Captain Cook Monument, there was a brief explanation before we started snorkeling. I brought anti-fog solution for my snorkeling mask from Japan, but there was some available on the boat as well.

The water was more transparent than I had imagined, and I was thrilled. There were various fish, and we swam while holding hands. Before participating, I was concerned about the depth of the ocean, but perhaps because we were wearing flotation devices, I didn't feel scared even when we went deeper.

After about an hour of swimming, we had lunch when we heard a signal of "ding ding ding." I think we were able to snorkel for almost another hour after lunch. The return boat was quite rocky, so I was glad I took motion sickness medication.

We chose seats on the first floor, so we didn't have to worry about the sun on the way there, and the breeze felt nice, but on the way back, it was cold because we were wet. The women's restroom on the boat had a broken lock, but it was clean.

On the way back, we encountered a pod of wild dolphins, and the boat stopped for a while to let us see them. We even got to see the dolphins jump. I would love to participate again.

午前のツアーに夫婦で参加しました。
ツアー３日前に宿泊ホテル（キングカメハメハ）のフロントからリコンファームの電話をかけましたが、上手く会話ができず（二人ともほとんど英語が話せません）、途中でホテルの人にかわってもらい対応してもらいました。
当日はタクシーで集合場所へ向かいました。※３０ドル（チップ込み）
チェックイン後、出航前に船の前でツアーの人から注意点等の説明をうけますが、屋根がない場所だったため、とても暑く日焼けが気になりました。
シュノーケリングスポットまでは約一時間。その間、マフィンやクロワッサン・フルーツなどの朝食がセルフで食べられます。そのあとフィンの貸し出しのためツアーの人たちがまわってきてくれますので、自分の足のサイズ（アメリカサイズ）を伝えます。
キャプテンクック記念碑の前につくと、また少し説明があった後シュノーケリングスタートです。日本からシュノーケリングマスクの曇り止め液をもっていきましたが、船内にもありました。
海の中は、想像以上に透明で感激しました。いろんな魚がいて、二人で手をつなぎながら泳ぎました。参加する前は海の深さが気になっていましたが、浮き具をつけていたためか、深めの方へ行っても怖さは感じませんでした。
一時間ほど泳ぐと「カンカンカン」という合図とともに昼食の時間になります。
食後も一時間弱はシュノーケリングできたと思います。
帰りの船は結構揺れたので、酔い止めを飲んでおいて良かったです。
私たちは１階の席にしたので、行きは日差しを気にする必要がなく風も気持ちよかったのですが、帰りは体が濡れているため寒かったです。船内の女子トイレは鍵が壊れていたけどキレイです。
帰りがけに野生のイルカの群れに遭遇し、しばらく船をとめてみせてくれました。イルカのジャンプもみれました。
また参加したいです。

It was moving! 感動でした！

Reviewed by: Shimakko

On my first trip to the Big Island, I participated in a manta ray snorkeling tour on the night of the supermoon! I got lost because I mixed up the meeting place, but the captain found us, and we were able to join the group safely. The warm words from our guide really helped us feel at ease.

Both the captain and the guide were very efficient, and since the tour company had a private space at the harbor, we were able to change into our wetsuits while sitting down, which made everything smooth. Once we were ready, we boarded the boat and set off immediately.

It was cloudy when we left the harbor, but we were able to catch a glimpse of the sunset as we spent about 40 minutes on the boat before arriving at the snorkeling point. I learned that there are different types of manta rays, and the one we can see around the Big Island is the "Oniitomakie," which can grow as large as 6 meters.

We quickly adjusted our snorkeling masks and entered the water. Even though it was snorkeling, we could rely on the buoyancy of the wetsuits and just stay near the light that attracted plankton, so I think even those who can't swim or are not comfortable in the water can enjoy this activity.

Within about 5 to 10 minutes, manta rays came to us! They opened their mouths wide, floated on their backs to take in plankton, and kept circling back to us. It was amazing to see them up close, even though we weren't allowed to touch them; they came so close that it felt like they were bumping into us! It was truly moving! Seeing wild manta rays at such a close distance, even closer than at an aquarium, felt like a dream! We were able to see two smaller manta rays and two medium-sized ones repeatedly, so we got to enjoy watching four of them multiple times.

After the tour, we were treated to warm cocoa, snacks, and cereal bars to take care of our bodies. On the way back, we cruised under the full moon! It was the best tour where we could experience a sense of unity with nature!

今回初めてのハワイ島旅行で、スーパームーンの夜にマンタシュノーケルのツアーへ参加しました！！
待ち合わせ場所を間違え迷ってしまったのですが、船長が私たちを発見してくれ無事合流、ガイドさんの大変暖かい言葉にとても救われました。
船長もガイドさんも手際がよく、又ツアー会社がハーバーにプライベートスペースを持っていたためウェットスーツへの着替えも椅子に座ってできたためスムーズ。支度を済ませたらボートに乗り込みすぐに出発。
ハーバーから曇っていたけどちょっと見れた夕焼けを背に40分程度船に乗りシュノーケルポイントに到着。
「マンタ」と言っても種類があるそうで、ハワイ島で見ることが出来るのは「オニイトマキエイ」というマンタで、大きなものは６ｍもあるそうです。
私たちもシュノーケルマスクを合わせてすぐに着水。シュノーケルと言ってもウェットスーツの浮力を使い、プランクトンを引き寄せるライトに捕まっているだけでよいので、泳げない人でも極端な話水が苦手な人でも出来るアクティビティだと思います。

開始5～１０分程度ですぐに私たちのところもマンタが来てくれました！！
大きく口を空けて仰向けになってプランクトンを取り込みくるりと回りまた仰向けになり・・を繰り返して何度も来てくれました！！
触ってはいけないのですが、向こうからぶつかってくる程目の前で見ることが出来て、とても感動的です！！水族館のガラスに張り付くよりも近い距離で野生のマンタが見れるなんて夢みたいでした！
私たちの所には２匹の小さめのマンタと２匹の中くらいのマンタが繰り返し来てくれて、４匹を何度も見ることが出来ました☆

終わった後は暖かいココアとお菓子やシリアルバーで身体に気を遣っていただきました。帰りは満月の下をクルーズして帰りました！自然との一体感を味わえる最高のツアーでした☆

An amazing tour with manta rays coming up close! マンタが大接近で感動のツアー！

Reviewed by: misaloha

I was very satisfied overall with my first day upon arriving on the Big Island!

I took a taxi from my hotel in Kona to the meeting point. I had called ahead to ask for the exact location, so I had the driver drop me off at the restroom near the North (not South) parking area, and I quickly found the yellow and blue tent nearby. The meeting point is key for those gathering on-site. I arranged for the same taxi to pick me up for the return trip, and I made it back safely.

The tour had all Japanese participants, with one Japanese-speaking instructor and three local staff members, all of whom were very friendly, which was reassuring. We traveled quite a distance at high speed to the manta ray encounter point, but since we were on a rubber boat, we could straddle the edge and feel the wind like on a banana boat, which was a lot of fun. It felt like we were getting a bonus marine sports experience!

Since it was still bright when we arrived, we were able to snorkel until sunset, but there weren't many fish. The water was clear and beautiful, though. Once the sun finally set, the mantas came close to gather under the lights, attracted by the plankton! It was an emotional experience to see them up close! We weren't allowed to touch them (due to the risk of infection), but they came so close that they brushed against my legs several times! This experience is probably unique to just a few places in the world. It seems to be a famous tour globally.

Lastly, it's definitely a good idea to take motion sickness medication beforehand! We took it in advance, so we didn't feel any nausea at all, but other participants seemed to get quite seasick and couldn't get in the water, while some were just watching from above... Don't forget to take it!

ハワイ島到着初日に予定していました、総合的に大満足です！

コナのホテルからタクシーで現地集合にしました、事前に電話して詳しい場所をきいておいたので、運転手さんにもノース（サウスではなく）パーキングのそばのRestroomでおろしてもらい、近くにある黄色と青のテントは直ぐに見つかりました。現地集合の方はそこがポイントです。帰りも同じタクシーにきてもらい無事に帰れました。

ツアーは全員日本人の参加、日本語のインストラクターさんお一人と現地スタッフ3人皆さん感じの良い方で安心です。マンタ遭遇ポイントまではかなりの距離をハイスピードで向かいますが、ゴムボートなので外の枠にまたがって、バナナボートのように風を感じてとても楽しめました。まるでマリンスポーツもついてるようでお得！？

到着後まだ明るかったので、日が沈むまでスノーケリングできました、でもあまりお魚はいなかったです。海は透き通って綺麗でしたが。やっと日が沈むとライトの下に集まってくるプランクトンを目当てにマンタが寄ってきました！！！大接近で感動！！こちらからは触ってはいけないので（感染症の恐れあり）見るだけでしたが、あまりにも近くに寄ってくるので何度が自分の足に触れてきました！この体験は世界でもここぐらいではないでしょうか。世界的にも有名なツアーのようです。

最後に、必ず酔い止めは飲んでおいたほうがいいです！私たちは事前に飲んだので全く酔いませんでしたが、他の参加者の方はかなり酔われているようで海に入れず、上から見ている方も。。。是非お忘れなく！

I recommend arriving early at the meeting place since seating is done in the order of arrival. Even if you get there early, there will be juice available, so you can drink and chat, and time will pass quickly. We were about five groups back, but we ended up with seats at the very front. There will be a commemorative photo taken before seating, but the sales will be in front of the restroom later, so you don't have to purchase it. We bought one for the memories, though (laughs). The food and drinks are plentiful. The show is enjoyable, and the staff is friendly. They also provide blankets for cold weather. Dressing up adds to the fun. Since it was fully booked, I think making a reservation early is a good idea. I believe even the lower class of Grey is sufficient.

並んだ順に着席するので、早めに集合場所へ行く事をお勧めします。
早く行っても、ジュースの用意があるので、飲んでおしゃべりしていると時間はすぐに過ぎます。
5組くらい前にいましたが、私達は一番前の席になりました。
着席前に記念撮影がありますが、販売は後ほどトイレ前なので、購入はしなくても大丈夫です。
私達は思い出に買いましたが（笑）
お食事も飲み物も充実しております。
ショウも楽しく、スタッフもフレンドリーです。
寒さ対策のひざ掛けも配布してくれます。
おしゃれをして参加すると楽しさ倍増です。
満席でしたので、早めの予約が良いと思います。
グレイどの高いクラスでなくても十分だと思います。

Kona Sunset Dinner Cruise to Kealakekua Bay with Live Entertainment | Body Glove

First Night on Island

Reviewed by: Joanne

We had a great time! Staff was friendly and very interactive with guest, food was great and plentiful, entertainment was great, historical guide was informative and great to talk too! The boat wasn't packed with people like the other boats leaving the dock. We would definitely do the dinner cruise again. You get some spectacular sites from the cruise, even a dolphin side show. The captain stopped the Boat for dinner and we watched the spectacular sunset while eating. It was a great experience! I would highly recommend this dinner cruise.

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＞

Incredible power! A series of surprises!! 大迫力！驚きの連続！！

Reviewed by: 渡部　聡＆有里

I had heard that there was a 99% chance of encountering manta rays, but I boarded the boat with a bit of anxiety. The boat sped along for about 20 minutes. Along the way, the sunset was incredibly beautiful, and I couldn't stop feeling excited about the possibility of seeing manta rays.

When we arrived at the spot where the manta rays come, it was just getting dark, and we were finally ready with our wetsuits and snorkels. The guide and the captain threw a floating ring with blue lights into the water, and we jumped in.

Eight of us held onto the ring, stretching our arms and legs while looking into the water. Soon, manta rays approached us, drawn to the plankton attracted by the blue lights. The size of the manta ray's mouth was larger than I had imagined, and it felt like it could suck me in—it was an intense experience that was initially quite frightening. However, as the manta rays kept coming closer, my fear disappeared, and I was overwhelmed with emotion.

The tour was titled "Swim with Manta Rays!" but it would be more accurate to say that we watched them swim up close. I never expected to see them so closely, and I was beyond excited and completely satisfied!

After about 30 minutes of enjoyment, the boat sped back. The guide prepared snacks and warm cocoa for us. The cocoa was delicious and warmed my chilled body. With the boat's lights turned off, the sea was pitch dark, and the lights of Kona in the distance were beautiful.

Since "Swim with Manta Rays!" was the last activity on the Big Island, I left feeling very satisfied with my experience.

９９％の確率でマンタに遭えると聞いていましたが少し不安な気持ちでボートに乗り込みました。20分位全速力でボートは進みました。途中サンセットがすごく綺麗で感動しながらマンタに遭えるワクワクが止まりません。

マンタがやってくる所に着くとちょうどあたりも暗くなりいよいよスウェットスーツとシュノーケルをつけて準備オッケイです。ガイドさんと船長さんがブルーライトが付いた手すりつきの浮き輪を海に投げ入れて私たちは海に飛び込みました。

浮き輪には8人が手すりにつかまり腕と足をぴんと伸ばして海の中を見ています。ほどなくマンタがブルーライトに寄ってくるプランクトンをめがけて私たちに近づいてきます。
マンタの口が想像以上にデカく吸い込まれそうで大迫力の接近戦で最初は恐ろしいほどでした。
何回もマンタが寄ってくるうちに怖さもなくなり感動感動の連続でした。
ツアーのタイトルが「マンタと泳ぐ！」とありますが一緒に泳ぐわけでなく泳ぐのを間近で見ているといった方が正解ですね。あんなに近くで見られるとは思っていなかったので大興奮！大満足！でした。

30分ほどのお楽しみが終わりボートは全速力で戻っていきます。ガイドさんがスナック菓子とあったかいココアを淹れてくれます。冷え切った体にココアがしみ込んでとても美味しかったです。ボートの明かりを消しているので海は真っ暗、向こうに見えるコナの街の明かりが綺麗でした。

ハワイ島での最後のアクティビティーが「マンタと泳ぐ！」だったので大満足のハワイ島でした。

ハワイ島 サーフィンレッスン　カハルウビーチパークで波乗り体験！グループからマンツーマンのプライベートレッスンあり＜英語インストラクター／現地集合＞

Surfing is the best!! サーフィン最高！！

Reviewed by: ハワイはいい！

I participated in my long-awaited first surfing experience. The weather was so nice that the waves were calm. There were only two participants, including myself, and with two instructors, it felt like a "private lesson."

Before heading to the beach, during the explanation, I was told, "I'll make sure you can ride the waves!" I wondered if I really could, and after about 15 minutes of indoor instruction, we headed to the beach!

Thanks to the instructors' teaching, I managed to ride the waves for a few meters on my first try! On the second try, I rode for several dozen meters! The instructor said, "Perfect! Now, let's wait for some good waves!" I felt like a surfer!

However, the weather was really too nice, and it was very hot while waiting for the waves. Of course, I got sunburned. I had a great time thanks to instructors Jacob and Jeff. I would love to request these two again next time!

念願だった初めてのサーフィンに参加しました。
当日は天気もよすぎたせいか、波が穏やかでした。
参加者は我々2人だけで、インストラクターは2名だったので、「個人レッスン」のように
教えて頂きました。
実際にビーチに行く前の説明では、「確実に波に乗れるように、教えるよ！」と言われ、ホントに乗れるかなと思いいつつ、約15分の室内での説明が終わり、いざ、ビーチへ！
インストラクターの教え方がよかったのか、1本目ではほんの数メートルでしたが、ホントに乗れました！！2本目では数十メートル！！
インストラクターからは、「完璧だね！さ～いい波を待とう！」と言われ、気分はサーファーです！！
ただ、天気が本当によすぎて、波を待つ間はすごく暑かったです。もちろん焼けました。
インストラクターのJACOBさんとJEFFさんのおかげで、ホントに楽しかったです。
次もこの2人を指名したいくらいです。

プライベートチャーター　ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー！GoProレンタルあり＜午前／日本語ガイド＞

Dolphin イルカ

Reviewed by: tanamai

The snorkeling point had quite high waves, so families with small children seemed to have a tough time. After about three attempts, we encountered a lot of dolphins! It was truly moving ♡ While in the water, I could even hear the dolphins' calls, and I was very satisfied!! For those who get seasick, I think it's essential to take motion sickness medication. Also, since we were snorkeling in a place where we couldn't touch the bottom, they provided floaties for those who couldn't swim. I wouldn't recommend it for those who feel anxious.

結構波が高いポイントでシュノーケルだったので、小さなお子さん連れていたご家族は大変そうでした。
3回くらいアタックして、沢山のイルカに出会えました！とっても感激♡
海の中にいるとイルカの鳴き声も聞こえて、大満足でした！！
船酔いする方は必ず酔い止め必要かと思います。
あと、足がつかない場所でシュノーケルするので泳げない方には浮き輪貸してくれてました。不安な方にはオススメしないです。

プライベートチャーター　ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー！GoProレンタルあり＜午前／日本語ガイド＞

It's the best memory. 最高の思い出です

Reviewed by: Toshi

My wife and I participated together. Before joining, I heard great things about Daisuke, and I thought if I was going to swim with dolphins, it had to be with him. After the tour, we all agreed it was "the best!" and it became a wonderful memory.

Before departure, they mentioned it would take about 40 to 50 minutes to reach the dolphin encounter point, but luckily, we encountered a pod of dolphins just 5 minutes after setting off! We quickly dove in and had the best time with the dolphins. Throughout the experience, I was very satisfied to feel Daisuke's passion for dolphins and his energy to share their charm! When I go to Hawaii again, I will definitely participate again!

嫁と二人で参加したました。
参加前にダイスケさんの評判を知りイルカと泳ぐならダイスケさんだと思い、
申し込みましたがツアーが終わった後には口を揃えて「最高だった！」と言える程、
素敵な思い出になりました。

出発前には「イルカと出会えるポイントまで40～50分程度」と言っていましたが、ラッキーなことに出発して5分でイルカの群れに遭遇！早速潜ってイルカとの最高の時間を過ごすことができました。終始ダイスケさんのイルカに対する想いと、その魅力を伝えたいというエネルギーに触れられ大満足です！ハワイに行く際には、また参加します！

Many dolphins たくさんのイルカ

Reviewed by: jun

I was worried about whether I would encounter dolphins due to the bad weather the day before, but according to our guide Daisuke, we encountered around 200 dolphins. Every time I looked into the water, I saw dolphins. It became the best memory of my life!

It's a good idea to bring water when you board the boat.

前日が悪天候だったので、イルカに出会えるか心配でしたがガイドのダイスケさんがおっしゃるには２００頭ぐらいのイルカに出会えたとのことでした。
本当に海の中を覗く度にイルカたちに出会えました。
人生で最高の思い出になりました！

ボートに乗り込む時には水を持っていった方がいいです。

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

The number of fish I've never seen before! 見たことないお魚の数！

Reviewed by: eriri

I am a complete beginner at snorkeling, but I was really immersed in it. I was amazed by the clarity of the water and the number of fish. There were a few moments of anxiety, but it was such a wonderful experience that it made up for everything.

I participated with my child. My child seemed a bit anxious and was looking around, wondering if there were any Japanese people, but there were quite a few Chinese people, and we were the only two Japanese. Everything was in English, so I couldn't understand anything and just followed the movements of those around me. Well, once you're in the water, there are no problems at all (*^-^*).

One little issue was that I made the reservation on my smartphone while traveling, but I had to bring a printed reservation instead of just showing the smartphone screen. I managed to get it printed at the hotel front desk, thanks to a kind front desk staff member who understood a little Japanese.

Also, regarding the snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay, please make sure not to confuse the meeting point, which is at Keauhou Bay.

シュノーケルは超初心者ですが、すごい夢中になってシュノーケルしていました。水の透明度、魚の数にびっくりでした。少し不安な所がありましたが、それを全てチャラにするくらい素敵な経験をさせてもらいました。
子供と二人で参加しました。子供は心細かったみたいで｢日本人いないかなぁ｣とキヨロキヨロ周りを捜していましたが、中国の人は結構おられましたが、日本人は私たち二人だけでした。全て英語だったので、何も理解できませんでしたので、周りの人の動きを見ながら行動してました。まぁ海に入ればなんの問題もありませんが(*^-^*)
ちよっと困ったのは、旅行に出てからスマホで予約したのですが、スマホ画面ではなく、予約票を印刷して持って行かなければなりませんでした。ホテルのフロントでなんとかプリントして貰う事ができましたが、少し日本語が通じる親切なフロントマンのおかげです。
あと、ケアラケクア湾シュノーケルですが、集合はケアウホウ湾なので、つい間違わないようにして下さい。
