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 able to experience a lot. いっぱい体験できました

Reviewed by: バナナ

I participated with my husband and son. I had done rafting in a river before, but I had never done it in the ocean, so I was excited to see what it would be like. Since it was my first time going to the meeting point, I was a bit anxious, but I was able to find it right away as directed. The captain only spoke English, but we received detailed printed information in advance, so I didn't have any issues. However, I thought it would have been more fun if I understood the language better.

When we set off, I thought it was a rafting and snorkeling tour, but we encountered a whale once and dolphins two times. It was very exciting since I hadn't expected it. The dolphins jumped while spinning their bodies several times. They were very playful. Seeing a whale in person was also a first-time experience for me, and it was very moving. We enjoyed rafting both to and from the location, and we had plenty of time for snorkeling, about an hour and a half, with lots of fish around. It's rare to find a tour that offers such experiences. I think the cost performance is good as well. I highly recommend it.

However, the boat stops at certain points, and the waves can make you feel a bit nauseous. It moves quickly, so it's okay, but since you spend five hours on the boat or in the sea, if you're worried, it's a good idea to take motion sickness medication. The sun is also strong, and there is nothing to block it, so I think it's best to prepare well for that before participating.

夫と息子と私の３人で参加しました。川でのラフティングはしたことがありましたが、海ではしたことがなく、どんなのかわくわくして参加しました。現地集合で初めて行くところなので不安がありましたが、案内されたとおりで、すぐにみつけることができました。キャプテンは英語しか話せませんが、事前に詳しいプリントといただけるので、困ることはありませんでした。でも言葉が分かれば、もっと楽しいだろうなと思いました。出発するとラフティングとシュノーケルのツアーと思って参加したのですが、クジラ１回といるか２回に出会えました。期待していなっただけにとても盛り上がりました。いるかは、何度もくるくる体を回転させながらジャンプしていました。サービス精神満点のいるかでした。くじらも生で見るのは初めての経験で、とても感動しました。ラフティングも行きと帰りに楽しみ、シュノーケルもたっぷり１時間半ぐらい時間があり、魚もいっぱいでした。これだけ体験できるツアーはなかなかないです。コストパフォーマンスもいいと思います。お勧めです。ただポイントでボートが停まってくれるのですが、波でゆれ気分が悪くなることもありました。すぐに動くので大丈夫ですが、５時間はずっとボートか海の上で過ごすので、心配な方は酔い止めを飲んでおくと安心です。日差しも強く遮ってくれるものもないので、対策は、しっかりして参加するといいと思います。

Cahuilla Ranch is about an hour's drive from the airport. It's located about 11 miles up a mountain road. The elevation is quite high, so it feels cool, and we ride horses in a line across the spacious ranch. My mother was a complete beginner this time, but she seemed to enjoy it very much. We were able to ride comfortably in the clear air. Since we ride for a long time, it's a good idea to apply sunscreen!

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

I saw dolphins. イルカが見えました

Reviewed by: みきみき

We participated with our children who are in the second and third grades. Although we couldn't communicate in Japanese, we managed just fine. Thanks to taking motion sickness medication before boarding, we didn't get seasick and arrived at the snorkeling spot. When they asked for our fin sizes, it was hard to communicate in centimeters, so I recommend checking the sizes in inches beforehand. They also provided floaties and other floating devices. The cheeseburger for lunch was delicious.

On the way back, we were accompanied by a lot of dolphins, and they were even right under the boat, which really impressed the kids. As parents, we felt like kids again and enjoyed jumping into the sea from the boat's slide, taking our time to relax.

We were quite tired, so we ended up taking a nap at the hotel in the afternoon. I think it's better not to schedule anything after that.

小学2年と3年の子供と家族で参加しました。日本語は通じないけれど、なんとかなりました。酔い止めの薬を飲んで乗船したおかげか、船酔いもせずにシュノーケルスポットにつきました。フィンのサイズを聞かれたときに、ｃｍでは通じないので、インチのサイズを調べておくといいと思います。浮き輪も浮き具もあります。ランチのチーズバーガーも美味しかったです。
帰りにイルカがたくさん併走してくれて、船の真下にもいたので子供たちはとっても感動していました。親も、子供にかえった気分で船の滑り台から海に飛び込んで、のんびりと満喫しました。
結構疲れたのか、午後はホテルで昼寝をするくらいだったので、その後には予定をいれないほうがいいと思います。

Incredibly blue sea & sunburn 信じられないくらい青い海＆日焼け

Reviewed by: みーにゃ

When I first boarded the Zodiac rubber boat, I was a bit shaky and squealed, but gradually I started to feel exhilarated no matter how fast we went or how much we bounced. I knew I couldn't keep my hat on, but even the hood of my rash guard came off.

We jumped into the deep blue sea, far from land. The water was crystal clear up to my feet, but beyond that, it turned a deep navy blue. I wondered just how deep it was. The water felt so soothing that when I relaxed, my body floated effortlessly. It was an incredible sense of liberation.

Snorkeling around the Captain Cook Monument was also fantastic. It felt like being thrown into a tropical fish tank. However, for us Japanese, it might have been a bit too long. Watching families from Russia and the mainland continue to jump in and have fun made me wonder how much longer we would be there. (Sorry if I seem a bit out of sync.)

The captain kept speaking in English, but I couldn't see his face and the wind made it hard to understand. It wasn't a problem, though. I thought it might be fun to understand and respond like a native, but I don't really do that even in Japanese.

Towards the end, we encountered a pod of dolphins. They seemed so free. I was very satisfied.

Despite being careful about sunburn, my thighs and knees (from sitting) ended up getting sunburned bright red. For those who will participate in the future, wearing a long dress that is easy to put on and take off over your swimsuit might be safer. If you're concerned about getting tanned, this activity might not be for you.

ゴムボートのゾディアック号に最初乗った時は少々揺れてもキャーキャーしていましたがだんだんスピードがどんなに出ても飛び跳ねても爽快に感じるようになりました。帽子はかぶっていられないことはわかっていましたがラッシュガードのフードも脱げてしまいます。

陸地から遠く離れ海のど真ん中でただただ碧い海に飛び込みました。足もとまでくっきり透き通って見えるのにその先は濃紺、いったいどれほどの深さなのでしょう。とろりと感じるぐらいの水、脱力すると簡単に体は浮きます。ものすごい解放感。


キャプテンクック記念碑の周りでのスノーケリングもすばらしかった。まるで熱帯魚の水槽の中に放り込まれたようでした。でも我々日本人には冗長すぎる時間かもしれません。いつまでもはしゃいで飛び込んだりし続けるロシアやメインランドからの家族を船の上から見ながらいつまでここにいるのかなと思うようになります。（ノリが悪いのかすみません）

キャプテンがしゃべりつづけてる英語は顔も見ていないし風にも吹かれているしまるで理解できませんね~。それで困ることはありません。理解できてネイティブ並みに反応できたら楽しいかとも思いますが（もともと日本語でもそういう乗り突っ込みはしないですからね）

最後のころにイルカの群れに会えました。自由を感じるイルカたちでした。大満足でしたね。

日焼けに気をつけていたにもかかわらず腿がひざが（座っているから）真っ赤に火傷してしまいました。これから参加される方は水着の上に簡単に脱ぎ着できるなが~いワンピを着て参加すると安全かもしれません。美白を気にする人は参加無理です。

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＞

Incredible power! 大迫力！

Reviewed by: なおみん

I participated in early August, and on that day, I saw three manta rays up close, almost as if they were going to bump into us. Due to the sunset, we gathered at the office in the shopping center at 6:30 PM and set sail at 7 PM. After checking in at the office in the shopping center and renting wetsuits, we moved to the boat ramp at Keauhou Bay individually. The water was quite cold, but the beautiful and powerful swimming of the manta rays made it worth it. It was a good decision to stay at the Sheraton within walking distance since we disbanded while still wet. We were the only Japanese participants.

8月初めに参加し、その日は3匹のマンタが、ぶつかるかな？・・というくらい近くで見えました。
日没の関係と思いますが、18時半ショッピングセンター内の事務所集合、19時出航でした。
ショッピングセンター内事務所でチェックインをして、ウエットスーツを借りた後は、
各自でケアウホウ湾のボートランプへ移動しました。
水中は、かなり寒かったですが、マンタの泳ぐ美しい姿と迫力は、それ以上のものがありました。
濡れたまま解散なので、ホテルを徒歩圏内のシェラトンにして、正解でした。
日本人参加者は、私たちだけでした。

I was surprised by the speed of the boat. ボートのスピードにビックリ

Reviewed by: shimamon

This time, we participated as a family of four. The snorkeling tour we usually join involves a large boat that takes us to the location, where we enjoy ourselves, but this tour felt like the attractions began as soon as we boarded the boat. The boat was thrilling, and during the hour of bouncing over the waves, I had to hold on tightly or I felt like I might be thrown off. Once we arrived at the Captain Cook Memorial, it was truly a snorkeling paradise. The water was very clear, allowing us to see deep down to the ocean floor, so anyone can expect to see at least 15 different types of tropical fish. It's a tour that the kids can enjoy as well.

今回は家族４人で参加しました。いつも参加するシュノーケリングツアーは大きな船でポイントまで移動して、その場で楽しんでいるんですが、このツアーはボートに乗り込んだ時から既にアトラクションが始まっているという感じです。ボートは迫力満点で、波間をすり抜けて１時間くらい揺られている間ずっとしっかり捕まっていないと振り落とされそうになります。また、キャプテンクック記念碑の所に到着したらまさにシュノーケルバラダイスです。透明度は高く海底の深くまで見渡せますので、誰でも最低１５種類くらいの熱帯魚を観ることが出来ます。子供達にも十分楽しめるツアーです。

Ocean Rafting & Lava Cave Adventure オーシャンラフティング＆溶岩洞窟アドベンチャー　

Reviewed by: Hiramechan

I had a great time. I thought it would be rafting, but I stayed completely dry and had a comfortable ride. We set out with three boats, and thanks to the captain's unique judgment, we were able to explore various courses. Of course, at certain points, all three boats came together, so it felt safe. The guides communicated entirely in English, but printed materials in Japanese were distributed beforehand, so even if you're not good at conversation, you'll be fine. The boat's speed was full throttle, so it was quite fast. Moreover, with the rolling, it was thrilling. You might worry about seasickness, but while moving, you can feel the wind all over your body, so you completely forget about it. Still, for those who are anxious, taking medication beforehand would be perfect. I thought snorkeling would be the same no matter where you swim, but the underwater world in places without people was completely different. After swimming here, the ocean in Waikiki felt just like Japan's Enoshima, and I didn't feel like diving. Please make sure to enter the waters of Kealakekua Bay.

とても楽しかったです。ラフティングと思ってましたが、身体は全く濡れることなく、快適なライディングでした。３隻での出港となりましたが、キャプテンの独自の判断でいろんなコースを巡ることが出来ました。もちろん、ポイントポイントでは３隻そろうのですから安心です。ガイドは全て英語でなされますが、事前に日本語で書かれたプリントが配布されますので、会話が不得意でも大丈夫です。ボートの速度はアクセル全開なので相当速いです。しかも、ローリング付きなのでスリル満点です。船酔いの心配があるかもしれませんが、走行中は全身で風を感じることができるので完全に忘れてしまいます。それでも不安な人は薬を飲んでおけば完璧でしょう。シュノーケリングはどこで泳いでも変わらないと思っていましたが、人が入らないところの水中は全く別世界でした。ここで泳いだら、ワイキキの海は日本の江ノ島と同じで、潜る気にはなりません。ぜひともケアラケクア湾の海には入って下さい。

The highest level of transparency. 最高レベルの透明度

Snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay had very high visibility and was quite satisfying. In Hawaii, Hanauma Bay on Oahu is famous for snorkeling, and I have experienced it several times, but the visibility at Kealakekua Bay surpassed my experiences at Hanauma.
Ocean rafting is quite bumpy and fast, so it's almost impossible to wear a hat on the boat. Don't forget facial sunscreen. Especially after snorkeling, the sunscreen washes off, which can lead to serious sunburn.

ケアラケクア湾のシュノーケリング。透明度がとても高く満足のいくものでした。ハワイではオアフ島のハナウマ湾がシュノーケリングで有名で、何度か体験していますが、今回のケアラケクア湾の透明度はハナウマでの経験を上回るものでした。
オーシャンラフティングは揺れ・スピード共にかなりのモノなので、船上では帽子をかぶっていることがほとんど出来ません。顔の日焼け止めを忘れずに。特にシュノーケリング後は日焼け止めが落ちているので大変な事になります。

The cave was a bit disappointing. It was so small that we only paddled in 3 feet and turned around.
We actually snorkeled in a bay with cliffs. You were able to climb up and jump off a 30 foot cliff.

They had great snacks up on the cliff: fresh pinapple, cookies, chocolate, cheese and drinks.

The staff was very laid back. We had 3 tour guides for our trip that seemed to not stress about anything. We had one couple in our group that paddled away from the main group and the staff didn't seem concerned about it.

Fun Activity

Reviewed by: qbc1899

The kayak/snorkeling adventure was a lot of fun. I was prepared to kayak, but it was still a LOT of work. In total, you end up kayaking for close to two hours. Then we snorkeled for close to an hour or more. Would NOT recommend if you cannot kayak for that long or if you have small kids that cannot help paddle. Just be prepared.

The guides were nice and kept pace in the front with the leaders and in the rear with the slowest of the group. No one was left behind, which was nice. However, at the front of the group, we did do a lot of waiting for others. We went to a few sea caves and then went to a spot to snorkel and have snacks. The snacks were nice, the fresh pineapple was the best by far!

I did not find anything unique about this tour though. I felt like the tour guides have given the same "WOW you guys seem adventerous, should we take them here....or not?" talk a thousand times. Was kind of corny. But the activity was exactly as described and both my husband and I

After arriving at the snorkeling point, we had lunchtime on the boat. I was a bit confused since it was my first time snorkeling, but with the staff's advice, I was able to enter the water with confidence. Underwater, it was mystical with coral reefs and schools of tropical fish. On the way back, we also encountered a whale, making the tour absolutely fantastic.

This time, I participated with my parents. The reason for joining was my mother, who had always wanted to try this kind of attraction, so we joined somewhat on a whim, but the three of us had a fantastic time together. None of us speak English, but the atmosphere and the Japanese guide we received at the beginning were more than enough.

The incredible speed of the ocean rafting, the breathtaking snorkeling in Kealakekua Bay, and the encounters with dolphins were all first-time experiences, and everyone in the family felt we wanted to participate again!

The weather was a mix of sunny and cloudy on the day, but my father and I, who didn’t apply sunscreen on our backs, ended up very red and it was quite a hassle. By the way, I did apply sunscreen everywhere else, but my face and arms also got sunburned. So, for those who are going to participate, I think it's best to use sunscreen thoroughly. (The captain and the male local staff reapplied it several times.)

I was desperately holding onto the boat's rope to avoid being thrown off during the ocean rafting, but it became fun once I got used to it.

This time, I didn't encounter any dolphins or whales as others have mentioned, but snorkeling in Kealakekua was amazing. The water was very clear and beautiful.

It was my first time snorkeling, so I was a bit confused at first, but by the end, I wanted to practice diving deeper.

After coming out of the water, it was really cold. A long-sleeved shirt was necessary.

Also, I thought I would get a tan and went without sunscreen, but the Hawaiian sun is intense, and I got quite burned and turned bright red. Even though I applied aloe after-sun gel frequently, three days later my arms were swollen and peeling all over, which was tough. Even if you want to tan, make sure to apply some light sunscreen.

I couldn't catch everything in fast English, but overall, it was a lot of fun.

Ocean rafting is... オーシャンラフティングとは…

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

First, it cost us about $90 one way by taxi from the Kohala area to this meeting point, so the lack of transportation was the biggest drawback.

We set off on a rubber boat! It took off at a high speed, so you have to hold on tight. It was really fast, and I thought, "No way..." but indeed! I think we took a long route, but the journey to Kealakekua itself felt like rafting. We were tossed around for quite a while, feeling the bumps from the waves and the speed, which was scary, so I held on to the boat tightly to the point that my hands hurt. On the way back, I got used to it and enjoyed it moderately.

Everything was in English, and all the other customers were Westerners.

When we arrived at Kealakekua, we were greeted with a beautiful view, just like in the pictures. We stopped the boat at a spot where we could see the Captain Cook monument, and after a snorkeling briefing, we entered the sea and started snorkeling. The types of fish varied by location, so it's good to move around a bit.

It was very beautiful and magical☆

However, after getting back on the boat from the sea, it was quite cold due to the wind, so it's better to bring a windbreaker or hoodie. Everyone was shivering so much that they had goosebumps.

On the way back, we did rafting again while being guided to various sightseeing spots. The captain's guidance was in English, but at check-in, we received a paper with guidance in Japanese. (However, there’s only time to read it while waiting for other customers to arrive after check-in, so I recommend checking in early.) We didn’t have much time to read, so we managed to understand somewhat through words and the kind gestures of the staff. The staff were very kind to us Japanese, explaining things clearly and being considerate. I want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude. Thank you very much!

Also, when getting off the boat, all the Westerners were giving tips. Since it was my first time paying tips on an optional tour, I wanted to note this for those who might not know. It seems better to prepare $10 bills for each person.

まず、コハラ地区からこの集合場所まで行くのに、免許のない我々はタクシーで片道約＄９０したので、送迎がない点が最大のデメリットでした。

ゴムボートに乗って出発！
猛スピードで走り出すので、しっかりとつかまっていなければなりません。
本当に凄いスピードで、まさか…と思ったのですが、やはり！
大回りはしていたと思いますが、ケアラケクアまでの移動自体がラフティングだったのです。
結構長い時間、波でのガタンという感じと猛スピードで揺られ、恐かったので、行きは手が痛くなるほどしっかりボートにつかまっていました。
帰りはだいぶ慣れ、適度に楽しめました。

全て英語で、他のお客さんは皆欧米人でした。

ケアラケクアに着くと、写真のようにそれはもう美しい光景が見られました。
キャプテンクック碑の見える位置でボートを止めて
シュノーケルのガイダンスの後、船から海へ入り、シュノーケリング開始。
場所によって、いる魚の種類が違ったので、色々動いてみると良いです。

とっても綺麗で幻想的でした☆

ただ、海から船に上がった後は、風もあり大変寒いので、ウインドブレーカーやパーカーなどを持って行ったほうが良いです。
皆とりはだが立つほど震えていましたので。

帰りはまたラフティングをしながら、各観光スポットを案内してくれました。
船長のガイドは英語ですが、チェックイン時に日本語でのガイドが書かれた紙をもらえます。（ただ、チェックインして他のお客さんが揃うのを待っている間しか読む時間がないので、早めのチェックインをお勧めします。）
我々は読む時間があまりなかったので、単語とスタッフのお兄さんの親切なジェスチャーで何となく理解できた、という感じでした。
スタッフの方は、私たち日本人にとても親切に、わかるように説明したり、色々と気遣ってくださいました。
この場を借りて、御礼が言いたいです。
ありがとうございました！

あと、船を降りるとき、欧米人が皆チップを渡していました。
オプショナルツアーでチップを払う、というのが初めてだったので、ご存じない方のために記しておきますね。
＄１０札を人数分用意しておいたほうが良さそうです。

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＞

I got to see a manta ray! マンタに会えた！

Reviewed by: fufufu

I really got to see a manta ray!
Even with the lights, it was quite dark, and the photos turned out dark as well (laughs).

However, the sight of the manta ray swimming gracefully, turning its body, was clearly visible against the darkness because of its white color.

Even in Hawaii, the ocean at night is cold.
I went during Golden Week, and I think it's better to rent a wetsuit. I thought there might be an extra charge, but it was included in the price. At the reception, they will instruct you to borrow one from the next room if you need it, so I recommend stopping by.

The reception area inside the shopping center was a bit hard to find (it's a glass shop with just a counter).

I wasn't sure about the warm drinks and food. It might be better not to rely on them too much...

本当にマンタに会えました！
ライトがあっても結構暗く、写真を撮っても暗闇でした（笑）

ただ、マンタがくるくると身体をひるがえしながら泳いでいる様は、
白いので暗闇に浮かびあがるようによく見えました。

ハワイといえども、夜の海は寒いです。
私はGWに行きましたが、ウェットスーツは借りた方がいいと思います。別途料金がかかるのかと思いましたが、料金に含まれていました。受付場所で、必要だったら隣の部屋で借りるよう指示されるので立ち寄った方がいいと思います。

ショッピングセンター内にある受付場所がちょっとわかりづらかったです。（カウンターだけがあるガラス張りのショップ）

温かい飲み物や食べ物はよくわかりませんでした。あまりあてにしない方がいいかも…

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

Great!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

The kayaking trip was good despite the weather. The waves were a little rough and we actually tipped over. Our guide was awesome! He answered all our questions and he stopped to help other people in need. Since the weather didnt cooperate, we werent able to snorkle. They are very understandable and refunded some of our mpney. We highly recommend this to anyone!

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

kayaking and snorkeling

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

It was ok. The only problem I had with it was that the with the snorkeling portion we went to a place where they said theres a lot of fish and there werent, not colorful or of much variety. It was fun to jump off a cliff and go swimming. It was only worth the money because they gave unlimited snacks so you kind of got your moneys worth.
