Ocean Encounters Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Sunset & Moonlight Cruise from Kona

Beautiful creatures

Reviewed by: David

The team where good and provided for a fun filled evening. The rays are beautiful and we got a few spin moves and seen about 6 animals. I highly recommend the experience and the ocean is lovely and warm. The only downside my wife had never snorkel before and required some extra guidance and assistance that wasn’t given so I did my best to help. Better instructions would have helped.

ケアウホウ湾　シーカヤック＆シュノーケリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／軽食付き＞by オーシャンサファリ・カヤック

First kayaking experience with the Hyokin Guide. ひょうきんガイドでカヤック初体験

Reviewed by: くじゃまつ

I was initially anxious about the meeting place since there were no buildings, but the guide arrived by truck, pulling the kayaks to the entry point to the sea. Accompanied by two pairs of beginner couples, including us and a Dutch couple, the guide adjusted to our slower pace and provided thorough explanations at various spots visible from the sea.

At the sea cave (which wasn't very deep), it was enjoyable to watch the Dutch man and the guide jump from the cliff (we declined to participate). Even when we capsized and fell into the sea, the guide calmly helped us back onto the kayak.

Since both pairs were beginners, we didn't go snorkeling but were simply informed about suitable spots. Although there was a bit of wind and waves, it was a fun first experience with enthusiastic and humorous explanations from the guide, all from a sea-level perspective.

集合場所が建物もなく不安でしたが、海へのエントリー場所に、積んだカヤックを引っ張ってトラックでガイド登場。
我ら初心者老夫婦とオランダ人カップルのふた組引き連れ、遅れがちの我々のペースに合わせ、海から見える場所場所で、丁寧な説明。
海中洞窟(それほど奥行きは無かったが)では、上の崖から飛び込み(オランダ人男性とガイドさんで、我々は辞退)も見ていても楽しいイベントでした。
転覆して海に落ちても、慌てず丁寧に、カヤックに引き上げてもらいました。
ふた組ともカヤック初心者のためか、シュノーケリングはしませんでしたが、てきせつな場所を教えてもらうだけでした。
風、波が少しあり疲れましたが、ひょうきんながら熱心な説明で、海から目線の楽しい初体験でした。

I had participated in a similar dolphin tour on Oahu, and it was great because we could see them from a very close distance and there were many of them. The beauty of the ocean was also wonderful, and it became a great memory. If you want to encounter dolphins with a high probability, I recommend this tour.

Ocean Encounters Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Sunset & Moonlight Cruise from Kona

Amazing experience and great crew!

Reviewed by: Stacia

My husband and I went on the snorkel experience and it was the best! We saw about 15 manta rays, including one with a 12 foot wingspan, and probably close to 10 barrel rolls where they came within a few inches of us. Our crew worked hard to make sure we were comfortable and that we had a good time (even made us hot cocoa after we got out of the water). I can't say enough great things about Ocean Encounters- you might find a cheaper manta ray swim, but you won't find a better one.

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

A paradise of fish while snorkeling at a leisurely pace. じっくりシュノーケリングでお魚パラダイス

Reviewed by: すもこ

First of all, this tour starts with a meeting point, so it was an adventure for us from the beginning. We left Hilton Waikoloa a little over an hour before the meeting time and arrived safely after about 50 minutes, but the parking lot in front of Fair Wind was already full. We were directed to a parking area deep in the woods across the way (which was just right in front). It was very difficult to find... However, my mother had checked other people's blogs, so if you're worried, you might want to look there.

We took a large boat to Kealakekua Bay. It was a one-hour boat ride, but it wasn't too bumpy, and we were able to have breakfast, so it went by quickly. There is a second floor, but since meals are served on the first floor, I recommend staying on the first floor.

Once we arrived at the bay, we could snorkel freely. There were no Japanese staff, but they made sure to provide fins and floaties. The floaties, which looked like sumo wrestling mawashi, were quite amusing, but they allowed us to snorkel for a long time, making it very comfortable.

I don't think there were any explanations in English about the fish or where to find them, so you can just immerse yourself in snorkeling. Some people were jumping into the sea from the slide, while others finished snorkeling early to have lunch on the boat or enjoy the scenery; everyone was very relaxed.

On the way back, I was hoping to see dolphins, but I didn't find any. However, when I heard a loud noise and looked towards the back of the boat, there was a man struggling with a fishing line that had a reaction. Everyone cheered, and when a large barracuda came out, the atmosphere on the boat was electric.

This tour is recommended for those who want to enjoy their meals, snorkeling, and the scenery at a leisurely pace.

出来るのでとても楽でした。
お魚の説明や、どこにいるよとかは特に英語でも説明はなかったと
思うので、ただただシュノーケリングに没頭できます
滑り台からジャンプして海に入ってる人や・早めにシュノーケリングを終えて
船内で昼食を食べてる人、景色を楽しんでる人それぞれで
とってもまったりしています。
帰る際には、イルカが見られるかもと思って探していましたが、見つからず、
大きな声がして船内の後方をみるとなんと、おじさんが反応のあった釣り糸と格闘中。みんなで応援して、大きなシーラが出てきたときは、船内は大盛り上がりでした。
ゆっくり、食事もシュノーケリングも景色も楽しみたい方にはおすすめのツアーです

Dolphin extravaganza! イルカ三昧！

Reviewed by: him

It was my first dolphin tour. I encountered a pod of about 200 dolphins and was able to swim with them! When I entered the water, I could hear the dolphins' calls all around me, and I was moved as dolphins swam right past me. There were four opportunities to swim with the dolphins, and I was able to swim with them during all of those chances. I felt grateful to have come, as I was told that encountering this many dolphins is rare. It was truly an emotional and unforgettable experience.

I was looking forward to seeing the lava of Kilauea on the Big Island from an angle that can't be seen from the ground, but I was a bit disappointed as it was just smoke. However, when we entered Waipi'o Valley, it was breathtaking. I was very moved.

The pilot was also very nice.

As others in the group mentioned, we were hoping for a Japanese or Japanese-speaking pilot, but we had an English speaker instead. I think they should contact us in advance if they can't meet our request. If I had known, I would have chosen another company. It was a very good flight and the staff were great, so it was a bit disappointing to see that lack of transparency. Because of that, I am deducting one star.

ドルフィン・クエスト　イルカと触れ合えるプログラムが充実！キッズ向けプログラム＜ヒルトン・ワイコロア・ビレッジ内＞

It connected to the memories and growth of children. 子どもの思い出と成長に繋がった

Reviewed by: A.M

The reservation indicated a duration of 10 minutes, but the overall time was about 30 minutes. The time to touch the dolphin was 10 minutes, which was sufficient for a three-year-old.

The process involved receiving explanations with other reservation groups, using a stuffed dolphin to demonstrate how to interact with the dolphins and what to be cautious about, which sparked the children's interest in a fun way. After that, two family groups began interacting with the dolphins, gently touching their backs and feeding them fish. While taking photos, we were also able to see the dolphins jump at times.

Although my child was scared, they were able to pet the dolphin, and it seems to have left a memorable experience for them.

Since taking photos with your own camera is not allowed (smartphones are also prohibited), you will need to purchase photos, which are not cheap. They are about the same price as photos bought at an amusement park, or slightly higher. The cost varies depending on whether you buy all the image data or select a certain number of photos.

If you want to keep photo costs down, it might be a good idea to ask a family member who is not participating to take pictures from outside the area. I ended up purchasing about three photo files because there was no one to take pictures for me. It became a wonderful memory.

予約内容は10分との表記でしたが、全体時間は30分くらいの時間だったと思います。イルカを触る時間が10分なのですが、三歳児くらいであればその程度で十分でした。

流れは、他の予約グループと説明を受け、
イルカのさわり方や注意することをイルカの
ぬいぐるみを使いながら、楽しく子どもの興味を沸かせていました。
その後、家族のグループ2つでそれぞれイルカと触れ合い開始。背中を優しく触ったり、魚をあげたり。写真を撮っていただきながら、時にはイルカのジャンプも見ることができました。

子どもは恐がりながらも撫でることができ、頑張った思い出として残っているようです。

自分のカメラで撮影をすることはNGなため（スマホもダメ）写真を買うことになりますが、安くはありません。アミューズメントパークで買う写真と同じくらいか、少し上くらい。
画像データまたは写真を全てか、選択した枚数で金額が変わります。

写真代を抑えたいのであれば、例えば他の参加しない家族に撮影をお願いするなどして、外のエリアから撮ってもらうのも手だと思います。
私は、撮ってくれる人が居なかったため写真データを3枚ほど購入しました。
良い思い出となりました。

Reviewed by: YUKIKO

We participated in the tour starting at 2:00 PM. The morning tour is about $50 more expensive and includes breakfast and lunch, and if you want transportation included, it’s an additional $20. Since we went by rental car, it cost us about $100 each. I’ve been on lunch-inclusive tours a few times, but I don’t have a great impression of meals prepared on the boat! I think the morning tours attract more customers due to the wave height, but the snorkeling spots are calm, so it’s reassuring. This tour definitely requires English proficiency; if you're not confident, having a Japanese guide is a safer option. Everything on the boat is in English, including explanations and safety instructions, so you need to pay attention to avoid danger! We didn’t see any dolphins, but there were plenty of fish!

午後便で、14：00時からのツアーに参加、午前中のツアーは朝食とランチが付いて50ドル程高くなり、送迎付きだと 更に20ドル程高くなります、私達は、レンタカーで行ったので、一人100ドル程、ランチ付きのツアーは何回か行きましたが、所詮 舟の中で作る食事、あまり良いイメージがありませんので！午前にお客が偏るのは、やはり 波に高さだと思いますが、シュノーケルをするスポットは、波が無いので安心できます、このツアーは英語力は絶対必要で、自信の無い方は、日本語ガイド付きが安心です、船内は全て英語、説明 注意などなど、ちゃんと聞かないと、危険なので！イルカはみれませんでしたが、魚はたくさんいましたよ〜

Swimming with wild dolphins was an absolutely amazing experience! 野生のイルカと一緒に泳げて、最高に楽しかったです！

Reviewed by: メタボの熊

I came to the Big Island of Hawaii for the first time with three beautiful single women from Japan. Since all of us, including myself, love the ocean, we were determined to go snorkeling while in Hawaii. Because this was a quick trip, I wanted to enjoy the ocean efficiently without renting a car, so I looked for snorkeling tours and found this tour to swim with wild dolphins.

On the day of the tour, the weather was great, and we had a guide who was well-versed in the ocean and dolphin ecology. We had a wonderful time swimming with many dolphins. On our way out to sea, we encountered a very rare pilot whale, which was an exciting memory for all of us.

I definitely want to repeat this experience when I go back to the Big Island!

当日はお天気も良く、海やイルカの生態を知り尽くしているガイドさんにアテンドしていただき、本当にたくさんのイルカとともに楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来ました。船で沖まで出る途中に、すごくレアなゴンドウクジラに遭遇して、みんなで興奮したのも良い思い出になりました。

Dolphin イルカ

Reviewed by: よこやま あきこ

I was thrilled by the number of dolphins that exceeded my expectations.

The day we participated was incredibly lucky; since it was just my husband and me, we had a private tour and were able to set sail early. Within about five minutes of departure, we encountered a pod of dolphins, and we hardly moved the boat at all. We were able to stay in the water and watch the dolphins for a long time.

I was impressed by Daisuke and Kevin, who were in charge that day. Their overflowing love for the dolphins and their professionalism in entertaining the guests were truly remarkable.

There are many dolphin tours available, but I absolutely recommend the Aloha Kona Tour.

予想を上回るイルカの数に大興奮しました。

私たちが参加した日は、とてもラッキーな日で、主人と2人で貸切だったこともあり、早く出航することができたので、出航して5分ほどでイルカの群れに遭遇し、ボートで移動することはほとんどなく、ずっと海に入ってイルカを見ることができました。
この日担当して下さったダイスケさん、ケビンさん、2人のイルカへの溢れる愛情と参加したお客さまを楽しませることへのプロ意識の高さに感動しました。

イルカツアーはたくさんありますが、アロハコナツアーが絶対おすすめです。

It was a comfortable and enjoyable cruising and snorkeling experience. 快適で楽しいクルージング＆シュノーケリングでした

Reviewed by: たけしー

Before participating, I had some concerns…
- Would the restrooms be cramped and dirty?
- Would it be uncomfortable on the boat?

There were no problems at all!
The restrooms were about the size of those in a one-room apartment in Tokyo, and there were two of them, making them very easy to use.
The boat was spacious, and the distance between guests was just right.

About 30 minutes after departure, we had our first cruising and breakfast!
The sea was beautiful, and we went snorkeling in a spot where the depth was about 12 to 15 meters.
It was my first time snorkeling in a place where I couldn't touch the bottom, so I was a bit nervous.
For breakfast, there was a small buffet with bread, omelet, and yogurt loaded with fruits. The fruits were so delicious that I had seconds.

After staying there for about 40 minutes, we moved to the second snorkeling point for more snorkeling and lunch.
We even encountered sea turtles!!
For lunch, we had hamburgers, and we could choose our own toppings. It was incredibly delicious, and I was thrilled.

On the way back, we cruised under a completely clear blue sky and arrived on time.

I want to go again!

参加する前に心配だった点…
・トイレは狭くて汚くないか？
・船の上は窮屈じゃないか？

The helicopter tour was wonderful and moving, with great weather. However, I had requested a Japanese guide, and that was not the case. I understood that it wasn't guaranteed, but I thought my request should have been communicated to the operating company, so it would have been nice to receive an explanation that "there is no Japanese guide." Perhaps I was expecting too much since I have always had enjoyable experiences with VELTRA, but I was really looking forward to having a Japanese guide, so it was disappointing.

ヘリツアーは天気もよく感動的で素晴らしかった。ただ、日本人のガイド希望でオーダーしていたのに、そうではなかった点。確約ではないことは承知していましたが、リクエストは運行会社に伝わっているはずですから、「日本語ではないです」旨の説明があってもよかったのかなと思いました 。今までVELTRAさんで楽しい経験ばかりだったので期待しすぎたせいかもしれませんが、日本語ガイドを楽しみにしていただけに残念です。

野生のイルカウォッチング＆シュノーケリングツアー ＜朝食・昼食付き＞

The stability and comfort of the ship are outstanding. 船の安定感・快適性は抜群です。

Reviewed by: りーな

We participated in a snorkeling tour with our 5-year-old child. We often sign up for snorkeling tours when traveling, but this was our first time on a large boat, as we usually take speedboats.

Since the meeting point was local, we needed to park our rental car at the tour company's parking lot, but we were a bit confused about the location, so be careful with that. (It takes just under 50 minutes from Waikoloa.)

In this tour, we were the only Japanese participants, and the rest were Westerners, but they spoke in quite clear English, so we could get the gist of things from the atmosphere. Right after departure, there was a breakfast buffet, and soft drinks were available for free if you asked at the bar counter; our child enjoyed drinking juice. The waves were calm, so there was no spilling of drinks, and the stability was definitely different.

The snorkeling spot was quite deep (about 10 meters?), but the water was very clear, allowing us to see the bottom. While we weren't surrounded by a large number of tropical fish like at the Great Barrier Reef, we did encounter some colorful fish, which was enjoyable. The boat also had a slide and a diving board, but we didn't challenge ourselves with those... (The Westerners were diving in a lot, though!)

For lunch, we had handmade hamburgers. We could choose our own patties, buns, and vegetables to assemble our burgers. True to American style, the patties were very good and delicious, and drinks were always available, making for a comfortable and relaxing experience.

If you have small children, many snorkeling tours on the Big Island have age restrictions, often requiring participants to be 12 years or older, but this one was fine. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any dolphins, but it was a very enjoyable memory!

5歳の子供を連れてシュノーケルツアーに参加。よく旅行先ではシュノーケルツアーを申し込んでますが、今までスピードボートばかりで、今回のような大型船は初めてでした。
現地集合のため、レンタカーを催行会社の駐車場に停める必要があるのですが場所がよくわからず戸惑ってしまいましたので、かなり注意です。(ワイコロアからだと50分弱かかります)

このツアーで日本人は私たちのみで残りは欧米人しかいませんでしたが、かなりクリアな英語で話してくれるので雰囲気で内容は察せそうです。出航後すぐに朝食のビュッフェがあり、ソフトドリンクはバーカウンターの方に頼めばフリーで出してくれますし、子供はジュースを好んで飲んでいました。波も穏やかだったせいかドリンクが零れるような揺れもなく、安定感はやはり違いますね。

シュノーケルスポットは水深は深い(10m弱くらいかな？)ですがかなり海の透明度が高く、底が見えます。グレートバリアリーフのような大量の熱帯魚に囲まれることはありませんが、カラフルな魚には割と出会えるので楽しめるかと。
船にはスライダーや飛び込み台もありますが、さすがにこちらは挑戦せず…(欧米人の方はめっちゃ飛び込んでました笑)
昼食は今はハンドメイドのハンバーガーです。パティやバンズ、野菜など、自分で取って組み合わせて食べるスタイルです。さすがはアメリカ、パティの肉感がとても良く美味しく頂けましたし、常時飲み物は頂けるので、快適に寛いで過ごすことが出来ました。


小さいお子さん連れだとハワイ島のシュノーケルツアーは12歳から等の年齢制限があるものも多く参加出来ないこともありますが、こちらは大丈夫です。
私たちはイルカには残念ながら会えませんでしたが、とても楽しい思い出となりました！

There were wonderful things too. 素晴らしいこともあったよ

Reviewed by: sho

One thing that was a bit disappointing was that I couldn't see any lava. Even though I was looking down into the crater, it was just a big hole because it had calmed down. I thought I would be able to see the lava entering the sea, but it seems that either there was never a plan for that, or it was no longer possible due to the calm.

The optional trip down to the base of the waterfall was amazing. I can't really gauge the true scale, but it felt like being at the bottom of Kegon Falls, looking up from below. There was no one else around, so it felt like a private waterfall. There's only enough space for one helicopter to land, and I don't think you can get there by car. I highly recommend this optional tour.

The helicopter guide and pilot was a Japanese person. It seems that the group I happened to be with had booked through the guide's website, which is why a Japanese guide was assigned. Requesting a Japanese guide might not be very effective.

Lastly, it was my first time on a helicopter, and if you're prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to take some medication. The vibrations from the helicopter can make you feel queasy. The flight itself wasn't scary, and even though it was my first time, I didn't feel particularly moved by it (laughs).

少しガッカリしたことは溶岩が見れなかったこと。火口を上から見てるのに、沈静化したためにただの大きな穴でした。溶岩が海に入っていくところが見れるのかと思っていたら、もともとそんな予定がなかったのか、沈静化したことでなくなったなのか、見れませんでした。
オプショナルの滝の麓に降りるやつは凄かったです。本当の規模はわかりませんが、華厳の滝の滝つぼ付近に降りたってしたから上を見るような感じです。私たち以外誰もいませんのでプライベート滝？です。ヘリコプター1台が降り立つスペースしかないし、車では来れないと思います。このオプショナルはオススメです。
ヘリコプターのガイド兼操縦士さんは日本人の方でした。どうやらたまたま一緒に乗り合わせたグループの方がガイドさんのホームページから予約されたため、日本人の方がガイドに着いたようです。日本語ガイドの希望を出しても、あまり意味が無いかもです。
最後に、ヘリコプターに初めて乗りましたが、酔いやすい人は酔い止め飲んだ方がいいかもです。ヘリコプターの振動が酔いそうになります。飛行自体は怖くもなく、初めて乗ったのですが、あまり感動はなかったです(笑)

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＞

Chasing dolphins while snorkeling is hard work! バンドウイルカ追っかけシュノーケリングハードワーク！

Reviewed by: もっとさん

I participated in dolphin snorkeling for the first time on the Big Island of Hawaii. I thought it would be a diving boat, but it turned out to be a Zodiac. The captain and the navigator were humorous and taught us a lot. It seemed that other boats were also searching for dolphins, but most of them couldn't find any, and the main Spinner Dolphins were elusive. However, we did spot the endangered Hawaiian monk seal along the way! After that, we zoomed around in the Zodiac, holding on tight, and discovered a pod of bottlenose dolphins! Unlike the Spinner Dolphins, they don't approach humans, so when we got close, they would dive away. Thanks to the captain's determination, we were able to see about six of them up close, which was fantastic!!!

However, preparing and challenging myself multiple times was tough for a guy over 50.

初めてハワイ島でイルカシュノーケリングへ参加しました。
ダイビングの時に載る船かな～と思っていたらゾディアックということでした。とにかく船長にナビゲーターの方がユーモラスで色々と教えてくれました。今回は他の船もイルカを探していたようですがほとんどの船がイルカに会えずメインのSpinner Dolphinは見つからず、途中絶滅危惧種のハワイアンモンクシールを発見！その後もゾディアックでガンガン飛ばして落ちないようにつかまっているうちにバンドウイルカの親子の群れを発見！でも、Spinner Dolphinと違って人間に寄ってこないため近づくと潜ってしまいます。そこを船長の根性で無事6頭ほど間近で見ることができてよかった！！！

でも、何度も準備してチャレンジは50過ぎの親父にはきつかった～～。

Kealakekua Bay Guided Kayak & Captain Cook Snorkel Tour - Adventures In Paradise

Fantastic Day!!

Reviewed by: S.Ives

Our Kayak and Snorkel tour was unbelievable! We saw spinner dolphins up close while we kayaked in a beautiful bay! They came up quite close to our kayak...we loved it soooo much! We then went over to the snorkel area near the Captain Cook memorial site. The reef is healthy and the colourful fish are everywhere! Our guide was Jay who was easy going and very pleasant and welcoming! I highly recommend this tour! I will for sure be back in the future!

We were blessed with good weather. 天気に恵まれました

Reviewed by: ハワイ初心者

The weather was great, and I was lucky to meet a lot of dolphins! Since the waves were strong, I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you're worried about seasickness. I took some and was totally fine. It seems that the timing of encounters depends on luck, so it’s best to schedule with some extra time.

天候、イルカさんの気分に恵まれ、たくさんのイルカさんに会えました！波が強かったので、船酔いや波酔いが心配な場合は酔い止めを飲むことをお勧めします。自分は酔い止めを飲んで全然大丈夫でした。遭遇のタイミングは運によるらしいので、時間に余裕を持ってスケジューリングしといたほうが良さそうと思います。

Grand Circle Island Tour - Volcano, Black Sand Beach, Waipio Valley & Waterfalls

Big Island Circle tour

Reviewed by: Kay

Awana, our guide was absolutely wondetful. He was so courteous, professional and accommodating. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour. I think we best part besides the scenery, was the Hawaii Botanical Garden. It wasn’t user friendly, due to some health conditions, but I thoroughly enjoyed it, and could have spent a lot more time there. Awana got us back to the airport to catch our flight in record time, after a long day.

It was early in the morning, but it was fun. The flight was at 7 AM. The price is high, but it is satisfying. You can experience the magnificent scenery of the Big Island. Mr. Mochizuki's guidance is wonderful! You can regain a pure feeling.

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 fun, like a cruise! クルーズみたいで楽しかった！

Reviewed by: Aik

I was the only Japanese person, but the staff took photos for me, and other guests took photos as well, which was fun.

I was often asked how I found this tour.

There were slides, and they had floaties and other equipment ready, which made me feel very secure. It seems you can also drink alcohol if you pay extra.
For breakfast, there were bread, muffins, fruits, and scrambled eggs? For lunch, there were hamburgers and pasta.

The taste was okay.

You can have a great time even alone.

日本人はわたしだけでしたが、スタッフの人が写真を撮ってくれたり、お客さんが写真を撮ってくれたりして楽しかった。

やたら、どうやってこのツアーを見つけたの？みたいなことを聞かれてた。

滑り台があったり、浮き輪などもしっかり準備されていて、とても安心できました。お金を払えばお酒も飲めるようです。
朝食はパン、マフィン、フルーツ、卵焼き？、飲み物、お昼はハンバーガーとパスタ。

味はまぁまぁかな？

1人でも十分楽しめます。
