Island Breeze Luau at King Kamehameha Kona Beach Hotel with Show, Dinner & Drinks Included

Island Breeze Luau

Reviewed by: Jim and Tamara

Aloha! We attended Island Breeze Luau, and we had a great time! This was our first Luau, and our 12 and 16 year old was with us. They had a great representation of Hawaiin Foods, as well as American foods for those who didnt want the full experience. The entertainment was great, and it was obvious that they loved their work. The passion for thier culture, and familys was beautifully done. By the time you left, you felt like you were part of their Ohana. The only thing I may suggest is to have more fresh fruits for those on a limited diet and more flower leis for sale, as they ran out the first 25 customers. I would give it a 4 1/2 stars.
Thanks for the memories!!

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＞

The sea and the fish were beautiful! 海と魚がきれいでした！

Reviewed by: marron

After gathering and listening to the instructions, we boarded the boat and headed out to sea. We encountered a sea turtle as we left the harbor. Once we departed, the boat accelerated quickly, cutting through the wind. I was surprised by the speed! Once I got used to the rhythm of the waves, it was a lot of fun. (However, if you are prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to have some medication on hand.)

On the way to the snorkeling point, we enjoyed the coastal scenery, including beaches. The snorkeling point is right next to Captain Cook's monument. Even from a distance, the coral was beautifully visible, and when I went snorkeling, I was amazed to see so many fish. The colorful fish eating the coral were adorable. I also spotted a pod of dolphins in the distance.

The weather was cloudy and a bit chilly, but I had a great time. On the way back, we stopped by the blowhole and caves, and the captain provided explanations for each. It was a bit challenging to catch everything since the explanations were in English, but it was nice to realize that all the other participants were foreigners, making it feel like we were truly enjoying marine sports abroad.

The meeting point was easy to find thanks to clear signage, so I arrived without getting lost. I highly recommend this experience!

集合して、注意事項を聞いた後、ボートに乗って海へ。
港を出るときに海亀に出会いました。港を出るとどんどん加速して風を切って走っていきました。そのスピードにびっくり！波のリズムに慣れるととても楽しかったです。（ただ、乗り物酔いする方は酔い止めがあった方が安心かもしれません。。）
ボートでシュノーケリングポイントへ行く途中、ビーチなどなど海岸沿いの景色も楽しめました。
シュノーケリングポイントはクック船長の記念碑のすぐそば。遠くからでもサンゴがきれいに見えて、シュノーケリングしてみるとたくさんの魚がいて感動でした。
色とりどりの魚たちが珊瑚を食べてる姿がかわいかったです。イルカの群れも海の向こうに見えました。
天気が曇っていて少し寒かったのですが、とても満喫できました。
帰りがけに潮吹き岩や洞窟によって、船長さんがそれぞれの説明をしてくれました。説明が英語だったので聞き取るのが大変でしたが、参加者が私たち以外はみんな外国の方で、外国でマリンスポーツをしていることをとても実感。よかったです。
集合場所も目印の看板が分かりやすくて迷わず到着することができましたし、おすすめです！

We went on the deluxe snorkel cruise. The boat was phenomenal! The boat itself is one of the nicest I've ever been on, and I was impressed with the overall quality of everything on board. The snorkeling was great! We swam with tropical fish and even a Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle. Along the coral reef I saw an octopus and an eel. This was such a great experience!

Reviewed by: かわせみ

I received a notification from Alan the day before that there were too few participants for the scheduled date, but I was able to change the date and participate successfully.

I joined the afternoon tour, but it was cloudy that day, and the snorkeling time at Kealakekua Bay, which I was looking forward to, felt a bit dark underwater. If you can wake up early, I think the morning tour would have better weather conditions. Although I stayed in Kona, it often became cloudy in the afternoon even if it was sunny in the morning.

I was the only Japanese person on the tour, but they provided a Japanese-language pamphlet during boarding, so I could grasp the general idea, and the captain was friendly and chatted with us, so there were no problems at all.

The rafting was a bit nerve-wracking at first as I felt like I might be thrown off, but once I got used to it, it was fine. We were shown lava caves and blowholes in a rubber boat. On the way back, we had a brief encounter with dolphins, which was enjoyable.

申し込んだ日時の参加者が少なく実施出来ないとの連絡が、Alan1より前日に宿泊ホテルにありましたが、日時の変更をして頂き無事参加しました。
午後のツアーに参加しましたが、当日は曇りで楽しみにしていたケアラケクア湾でのシュノーケルの時間は少し海中が暗い感じでした。早起きできれば、午前のツアーの方が天気の状況は良いと思います。コナに滞在しましたが、午前中は晴れていても午後曇ってくることが多かったです。
日本人は私一人でしたが、乗船時に日本語の解説パンフをくれるので大体の感じは掴めますし、船長も気さくにお話ししてくれますので、全く問題ありません。
ラフティングは出だしは振り落とされそうで緊張しましたが、慣れれば問題ありません。ゴムボートで溶岩の入り江の洞窟や潮吹き岩を見せてもらいました。
帰りに短い時間でしたがイルカとも遭遇し楽しめました。

I was a bit anxious about the English tour since I hardly understand English, but the captain was kind, and I had a very enjoyable time. I couldn't understand more than 90% of what was being said, which was a bit lonely, but I participated knowing that would be the case, so it can't be helped. They provide a Japanese paper with the initial talking points, so it might be helpful to read it well at the beginning.

I got to see wild dolphins, snorkel in crystal-clear waters, and see lava caves. All of my wishes were fulfilled. Therefore, I am very satisfied. Thank you for the wonderful time.

Captain Zodiac is the best! キャプテンゾディアック最高！

Reviewed by: ハワイ大好き

On April 1st, we participated as a family of four in the morning.

The weather was great, and the waves were calm, making it perfect for snorkeling. Since we stayed at the Waikoloa Marriott, we arrived at the meeting point, the Honokohau Harbor, in about 20 minutes. The check-in location was easy to find, and the process was smooth with the presentation of our virtual tickets.

Once we boarded the boat, we quickly spotted dolphins; a large pod of wild dolphins surrounded our boat. We were the only Japanese people there, but the American children were friendly, which created a great atmosphere. Everyone was friendly, and we had a fun cruise. The captain resembled Mariah Carey, and the boat moved at an incredible speed. We spotted a whale along the way, and it was thrilling to see it up close. The crew kindly searched for dolphins and whales, so we were never bored.

While snorkeling in the clear water, we saw many colorful tropical fish. This was my first time experiencing such beautiful water and snorkeling spots. There was plenty of time, and I highly recommend it.

We booked online and handled the arrangements ourselves, and everything went smoothly. The staff was quick to respond, and we were satisfied.

As others have mentioned, everything was in English, which was a bit disappointing. I understood the necessary information, but I couldn't catch the explanations about the sightseeing points, which was a shame. It’s a great tour, and I hope they can offer a tour for Japanese speakers in the future.

P.S. My two children (middle schoolers) are still saying they want to go again. I hope everyone enjoys it too!

　現地4月1日に朝に、家族4人で参加しました。

　お天気もよく、波も穏やかで絶好のシュノーケリング日和でした。ホテルはワイコロア・マリオットでしたので、集合場所のホノコウア桟橋まで20分ほどで到着しました。
　チェックイン場所もよくわかり、バーチャル券の提示で手続きもスムースでした。
　船に乗り込み、すぐイルかを発見、本当にたくさんの野生のイルカの群れが船を取り囲んでくれました。日本人はうちだけでしたが、アメリカ人の子供が人なっつこく雰囲気はよくなりました。皆さんフレンドリーで楽しくクルーズできます。船長さんはマライヤキャリー似のエンジェル。すごいスピードで進んでいきます。途中鯨を発見。すぐ近くで見ることができ感激。親切にイルカやくじらを探しながら進むので退屈しません。
　シュノーケルは透明な水の中、色とりどりの熱帯魚がたくさんいます。こんなにきれいな水や、シュノーケルポイントは初めてです。時間も十分ありお勧めです。

　今回インターネットで申し込み、自分たちで手続きしましたがうまく行きました。スタッフの対応も迅速で満足です。

　みなさんが書いているとおり、すべて英語なのでその点だけ残念。必要なことは理解できましたが、観光ポイントの説明が聞き取れず惜しいです。たいへんよいツアーなので、ぜひ日本人向けのツアーができること希望します。

　追伸・子供2人（中学生）はもう一度行きたいと今も行ってます。皆さんも楽しんでください。

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＞

I was moved by the whales. クジラに感動しました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I was looking for a tour to go snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay. I decided to join this tour, which seemed more active and enjoyable, as it offered rafting on a rubber boat and a high chance of encountering whales and dolphins!

There was one other Japanese couple (four of us in total), along with about ten other people. Just a few minutes after getting on the boat, we encountered a whale, which was a surprise since I was just hoping to catch a glimpse! After that, we were able to see the magnificent whales multiple times. There was even a moment when a whale appeared right in front of us, almost colliding with the boat, but that close encounter left a lasting impression and became the highlight of my trip.

As for snorkeling, I felt there were fewer colorful fish than I had imagined, but I was still satisfied just enjoying the atmosphere! On our way back, we also got to see dolphins jumping. The boat had a great sense of speed, making it a truly enjoyable time for active travelers. I think knowing English would enhance the experience even more.

On the day of the tour, there were some reservation mix-ups that caused inconvenience, but the staff handled everything with great care, and I am truly grateful to them. It was an incredibly satisfying tour! I highly recommend it to anyone going to the Big Island, and I hope to participate again someday with my children.

For those bringing a camera, I think it's best to be cautious (you might get splashed). I decided against bringing my DSLR and opted for a compact camera instead. However, there were people taking photos with DSLRs as well.

ケアラケクア湾でのシュノーケリングをしたくてツアーを探していました。
ゴムボートでのラフティングを楽しめる！クジラやイルカとの遭遇率も高い！と言う事で、大きな船ではなく、アクティブに楽しめそうなこちらのツアーに参加。

日本人は私達と同じ新婚カップルが１組（計4人）。他には10名程の方が一緒でした。ボートに乗って数分で、少しでも見えたらいいなーと思っていたクジラと遭遇！本当にビックリ。その後、何度も迂回しすばらしいクジラの姿を見ることができました。ボートにぶつかりそうなほど、目の前にクジラが現れるというハプニングもありましたが、この間近で見たクジラが目に焼きついていて、旅行中の一番の思い出になっています。

シュノーケリングは、想像よりもカラフルな魚は少なかったような気がしますが、雰囲気を楽しむだけでも充分満足！帰り際には、イルカが飛び跳ねる姿も見ることができました。とにかくボートはかなりのスピード感がありました。アクティブ派にとっては本当に気持ちの良い時間だと思います。英語が出来ると、より楽しめると思います。

当日は予約の手違い等で、大変ご迷惑をかけてしまいました。全て丁寧に対応してくださって、スタッフの方々には本当に感謝しています。本当に大満足のツアーでした！！ハワイ島へ行く方には是非お勧めしたいツアーです。そして、いつか子供を連れて参加したいと思いました。

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。

Captain and crew surely cannot be faulted for the fish not biting. They did their best to navigate us into waters where fish were known to be biting in the past, but with the big beautiful Humpback Whales roaming the seas the odds were against them. It would have been nice if at least one of them was a bit more communicative and share with us some local knowledge, but they kept to themselves. I know that is not their job, but it would have added some color to the day.

It's a fun tour. 楽しいツアーです

Reviewed by: アパッチ

We moved to the designated harbor by rental car. The location was easy to find, so we didn't get lost.
At the reception, we received a Japanese guide, and by reading through it, we understood the overall outline of the tour.
After that, we departed from the harbor. That day, besides the two of us Japanese, there were four American family members and two German couples, making a total of eight people.
We did a brief self-introduction when boarding (of course in English). The captain and another staff member spoke only English, so we couldn't catch most of the guide during the trip, but it wasn't a problem for participating. However, it was true that understanding English would make it more enjoyable, as others mentioned.
The small rubber boat runs at an incredible speed, so it shakes a lot. If you dislike this or get seasick, it would defeat the purpose of joining this tour. On the other hand, for those who enjoy this, the tour would be fantastic. We were in the latter group, so we had a great time.
Along the way, we were able to see many whales and dolphins, and snorkeling allowed us to see beautiful fish (though it was a bit cold…).
Overall, it was a wonderful tour for us. I highly recommend it to those who enjoy activities like the ones mentioned above.
Lastly, you can't go to the restroom during the tour, which lasts just over four hours, so I was a bit troubled by that…

レンタカーで指定されたハーバーまで移動。場所はわかりやすく迷うことはありませんでした。
受付で日本語のガイドをもらい、一通り読むことで、ツアー全体像がわかります。
その後、ハーバーから出発。その日は我々日本人２名以外は、アメリカ人ファミリー（？）４名とドイツ人（？）夫婦２名の計８名。
乗船時に簡単な自己紹介（もちろん英語）をしました。船長ともう一人のスタッフは英語オンリーのため、途中のガイドはほとんど聞きとれませんでしたが、参加する上での問題はありませんでした。ただ、英語がわかるともっと楽しくなるという他の方のご意見はもっともでした。
小さなゴムボートは物凄いスピードで走りますので揺れも凄いです。これが嫌いだったり船酔いしてしまうとこのツアーに参加する意味がなくなります。逆にこれが好きな人にとってこのツアーは最高でしょう。我々は後者でしたのでとても楽しめました。
途中、多くの鯨やイルカも見ることができましたし、シュノーケリングは綺麗な魚たちを見ることもできました（ちょっと寒かったけど…）。
全体的に我々にとってはすばらしいツアーでした。上記のようなアクティビティーが好きな方にはぜひお勧めします。
最後に、４時間ちょっとのツアー中トイレに行けませんので、私はちょっと困りました…。

Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Tour & Tropical Waterfalls Sightseeing from Hilo

Volcano Visit Disappointing

I flew from Honolulu to Hilo early for trip which was scheduled for 8:30 AM. We were delayed starting by about one hour for other guests who took a later flight. My main reason for this tour was to see the volcano. Because of air quality, the observation area was closed. Because of cloud cover, we could not see the top of the volcano. We were able to visit the National Park Visitors Center which was worthwhile.

The tour guide was just fair. We visited several commercial sites.
He tried to make up for the closing of the observation area by stopping at other volcanoes in the park & a lava tube.

I was extremely satisfied with this tour, which exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend participating in this tour when you visit the Big Island.

We departed from Honokohau Harbor on a 10-person rubber boat. The participants included four people from France, four from Canada, and two from Japan (us). I wasn't confident in my English, but everyone was considerate and spoke in easy-to-understand English, and they provided a printed guide in Japanese, so I was able to participate without feeling anxious.

The journey to Kealakekua Bay took about four and a half hours, during which we searched for whales and dolphins while moving along in the rubber boat. We were able to see both at quite close distances, and we also observed other marine creatures like flying fish and crabs.

Upon arriving at the bay, we went snorkeling. We snorkeled in the truly beautiful sea for about 40 minutes. The water was quite deep, but it was so clear that we could see the bottom, which was breathtaking.

I wasn't confident in my swimming skills, but they lent me a kickboard, so I was able to swim comfortably. On the way back, we saw lava caves and the town of Kailua.

Others who participated with us also said, "This is the best tour I've ever been on."

Since we didn't have a rental car, we participated in this tour with transportation included. It took about 45 minutes to get from our hotel to the meeting point, and we were dropped off just before the port, so we needed to walk to the Body Glove boat. The crew was at the reception, and you can check in by saying your name. As mentioned in other posts, the crew does not understand Japanese at all. I also speak very little English, but they provide a Japanese sheet with important information and emergency signals, so it's okay if you don't understand the English explanations. Since I have poor eyesight, they lent me prescription snorkeling goggles. I didn't understand everything in English, but since I participated in January, it was whale watching season, not dolphin watching. It was a great deal because you could snorkel and see whales. Although the sea was calm, it was still open ocean, so those prone to seasickness should take precautions. They do provide emergency assistance, but I think you need to be capable of managing your own snorkeling. Regarding transportation, the pickup was over an hour after the cruise ended, so I think it's fine to explore the nearby shops. I believe this is an activity that offers a unique experience that can only be enjoyed on the Big Island.

当方レンタカーがなかった為送迎つきのこちらに参加いたしました。
滞在ホテルより集合場所までは４５分くらい、港の手前で下ろされるため、ボディーグローブ号まで歩いていく必要はあります。クルーが受付をしているので名前を言えばチェックインできます。投稿にあるとおりクルーに日本語はまったく通じません。当方も英語はほとんどしゃべれませんが、注意事項、危険時の合図などは日本語のシートを出してくれるので英語の説明がわからなくても大丈夫です。目が悪いのでめがねをかけていたら度つきの水中グラスも貸してくれました。また英語のためわからなかったのですが当方の参加した一月は鯨が来るシーズンのためイルカではなくホエールウオッチングでした。シュノーケリングもでき鯨も見れることでお得ではありました。穏やかとはいえ外洋なので波はあるので船酔いするかたは対策が必要です。また緊急時の対応はしてくれますが自己管理でシュノーケリングできる能力は必要とみます。送迎のほうですが迎えはクルージング終了後一時間以上もあったので周辺のお店を散策してもいいと思います。ビッグアイランドでしか味わえない体験ができるアクテビティだと思います。

We participated as a family of four. I was shown a file with Japanese explanation materials for circulation, but it was quickly taken back for "safety reasons," so I could hardly read it. The entire explanation was in English and delivered very quickly, so I couldn't understand anything and just clung to the boat.

It was exciting when the dolphins came close or when we approached the lava cliffs, but other than that, it was boring. I found myself battling sleepiness while clinging to the boat.

For beginners, snorkeling might be fun. I had high expectations because there were many good reviews, but is this really worth the price? The cost performance leaves much to be desired.

We participated as a family this time. It was fun to feel like we were at an outdoor party. The show started with a traditional Hawaiian ceremony, and then the performance began on stage. Although we didn't have the best seats because a special group was celebrating a birthday, it was really nice to watch a traditional show in a tropical party atmosphere. Unfortunately, we had to wait in line to get drinks, which took some time, and the buffet-style meal had a set order for each table, making it difficult to eat, and there were few options, which was a bit disappointing for dinner. Next to us was a foreign family, but it seemed like they were seating Japanese guests close together. I think this dinner show is recommended for friends and families to enjoy the atmosphere and traditional performance while having fun together.

A beautiful sunset and soothing Hawaiian music. すてきな夕日と心地よいハワイアンミュージック

Reviewed by: ウクレレじじい

The staff provided a detailed explanation of the history of Hawaii Island in English, which was a great opportunity for my wife, who is currently learning English, to hear native speech. However, I was disappointed that I could hardly understand it. The Hawaiian cocktail "Mai Tai" served on board was fruity and had a pleasant taste.

I was very satisfied to be able to listen to live performances by musicians after purchasing a ukulele, as I had become fascinated with it. The pleasant breeze matched perfectly with the Hawaiian atmosphere.

The dinner included many local Hawaiian dishes and was delicious, but I felt that the variety was limited for the price. As the sun sets, the temperature drops significantly, so I recommend bringing a long-sleeved shirt.

　スタッフが英語でハワイ島の歴史を詳しく説明してくれ、英語学習中の家内にとっては、ネイティブの英語を聞く良い機会でした。しかし、私はほとんど聞き取れず残念でした。船内で振る舞われるハワイアンカクテル「マイタイ」は、フルーティで口当たりが良かったです。　
　私は、ウクレレに夢中でハワイのウクレレを購入してからツアーに参加しましたが、ミュージシャンの生の演奏を聴くことができて、とても満足でした。心地よい風にハワイアンがぴったりあっていました。
　ディナーの料理はハワイの郷土料理なども多くておいしかったのですが、値段の割には品数が少なかったと感じました。
　日が沈む頃になると随分気温が下がります。長袖を持って行かれることをお勧めします。

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＞

Amazing!! スゴイ！！

Reviewed by: かおりっつさ

As soon as we boarded the boat, we were able to encounter a pod of dolphins! After that, we saw many more dolphins! There were dolphins surfing on the waves created by the boat, and we were thrilled to see their adorable appearances. The sea was incredibly beautiful, and the snorkeling spot was fantastic! We enjoyed ourselves without getting bored until the very end. This is a tour I would love to join again.

ボートに乗り込んですぐ、イルカの群れに会うことができました！その後もたくさんのイルカに！ボートが作る波でサーフィンをするイルカがいたり、とてもかわいらしい姿を見ることができ、感激でした。海がとてもきれいで、スノーケリングの場所もサイコウ！飽きることなく、最後まで楽しめました。また参加したいツアーです。

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＞

It's a bit cold, but... 少し寒いですが・・

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

My first experience in the night sea was, as everyone has mentioned, mainly concerned with the cold. I prepared a rash guard and entered the water. At first, I only saw manta rays passing by two or three times, but in the end, a manta ray flipped in front of me multiple times, which was very satisfying. However, the cold can be quite challenging, so be prepared!

夜の海は初体験で、皆さんが書き込んでいる通り寒さだけが気がかりでした。ラッシュガードを用意して海に入りました。最初は２~３回マンタが通り過ぎるだけでしたが、最後には目の前をマンタが何回も宙返りをしてとても満足です。ただ、寒さは結構応えますので覚悟の上で！

The boat was going at an incredible speed, and I was desperately hanging on! As expected, I had muscle soreness the next day (laughs). But it was really fun!

I got to see the lava cliffs up close, and the impact was overwhelming! I don't think we could have gotten that close with a larger boat.

The diving spot had calm waves, and I was able to enjoy the corals and cute tropical fish. I think I would have enjoyed it even more if I could dive deeper. However, they gave us plenty of time, and I was able to enjoy it to the fullest.

The fruit on the way back was delicious! I was also thrilled to encounter pods of dolphins and whales both going and coming back! It was my first experience seeing the shadow of a dolphin passing under the boat. I had heard about it, but wild dolphins are really friendly. It's an emotion you can't experience with regular sightseeing.

I couldn't understand most of the explanations since I don't speak English, but even with that, it was still fun.

ボートはすごいスピードで、しがみつくのに必死！
案の定、翌日は筋肉痛になってました（笑）
でも本当におもしろかった！

溶岩の断崖絶壁をすぐ近くで見られたので、迫力が半端ない！
大きな船だったら、あんな近くまで行けなかったと思います。

ダイビングスポットは波が静かで、サンゴやかわいい熱帯魚？を楽しむことができました。
深く潜れたらもっと楽しめただろうな、と思います。
でも、時間もたっぷりとってくれて、思う存分楽しめました。

帰りのフルーツもおいしかったー♪
行きも帰りも、イルカやクジラの群れに出会えたのも感激！
ボートの下をイルカの影が通って行くのは初めての経験でした。
話には聞いていましたが、野生のイルカでも本当にひとなつっこいんですね。
普通の観光では味わえない感動です。

英語がわからないので、せっかくの説明がほとんど理解できませんでしたが、それを差し引いてもおもしろかったです。

Whale watching ホエールウオッチング

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Around 7 AM, I left the Hilton Waikoloa Village and followed the map, arriving almost on time without getting lost.

I was a bit anxious since the instructions were only in English, but I was relieved to receive a Japanese instruction manual as well. Shortly after leaving the harbor, we encountered a pod of dolphins. I was thrilled as it was my first time seeing them. Later, we also encountered a pod of whales, and the sight of a whale spouting water is so vivid in my memory that it remains etched in my mind even after returning home.

While heading to the diving spot, we encountered pods multiple times while viewing the lava cliffs. There were few opportunities for photos, but I managed to capture some great shots of the whales and dolphins. The timing for diving was appropriate. The fish weren't as colorful as I expected, but I enjoyed it enough. The boat ride was thrilling; it was tiring for someone in their 60s like me, but it was fun. Additionally, the lava cliffs that can't be seen from land were impressive.

When boarding the boat, I didn't wear a life jacket, so I think it's safer to always wear one while on board.

朝７時ごろ、ワイコロアのヒルトン・キングスランドを出て、案内図通りに向かうとほぼ迷わずに時間通り到着した。

英語のみの説明だったので若干不安だったが、日本語の説明書もいただいたのでよかった。
港を出て間もなくイルカの群れに遭遇した。
初めて見たので感激した。
その後クジラの群れにも遭遇し、クジラが潮を吹くさまが帰国後の脳裏に焼き付いているくらい印象的だった。

溶岩の岸壁を見ながらダイビングスポットまで進む途中、何度も群れに遭遇。
シャッターチャンスは少なかったが、いいクジラやイルカの写真が撮れた。
ダイビングの時間の取り方も適切であった。
魚は思ったほどカラフルではなかったが、十分楽しめた。
ボートはスリル満点で、６０代の自分にとっては疲れたが楽しかった。
また、陸からは見られない溶岩の絶壁は迫力があった。

ボートに乗るときは救命道具をつけなかったので、救命道具は乗船中は常に身に着けていたほうが安心だと思う。

It would have been more enjoyable if I could speak English. 英語ができたほうが楽しかった

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The guide and the boat driver were both native speakers and could not speak any Japanese. There were no Japanese participants, but if you have a basic level of English for simple everyday conversations, you can enjoy the experience without any issues.

However, I feel a bit disappointed that if the guide could speak a little more Japanese, we could have enjoyed it even more.

ガイドもボートのドライバもネイティブの方で日本語は全くできません。参加者にも日本人はいませんでしたが、簡単な日常会話が可能な程度の英語レベルであれば無理なく楽しめます。

ただ、ガイドさんがもう少し日本語が出来れば、私たちももう少し楽しめたかな、と残念に思います。

Can't say enough good things...

Reviewed by: Andrea Barbado

...about to this cruise. My children and I utterly loved this tour and I just want to thank the unforgettable crew members who made this trip a highlight of our vacation. From the moment we stepped onto the boat until we stepped off, it was an absolute pleasure.

Hearing my children's sounds of joy when they saw their first whale breach from the water is something that I will remember always.

How great was this tour?

TOTALLY AMAZING! When my friends and I saw this tour we were like, "Hmmm, whale watching? Sure why not!" and I am so glad that we decided to go. The boat was great, the view was priceless and seeing humpback whales jumping and slapping the water is something that I will never forget...ever. Like what a great memory to bring back home with me. Take this tour! You won't regret it!

Wish we brought the kids, they would have had a blast!! In any case it was our first time to the Big Island and this was a super good time. I'm guessing it's the same crew, but the afternoon sail crew was just lovely. Highly Recommended!!!
