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 recommend participating. 参加をお勧めします

Reviewed by: YUKARI

My husband and I have very little English skills. Even so, the captain and the female crew members were very considerate, and we had no trouble at all, even though we were the only two Japanese on board. The staff's smiles during check-in were pleasant, and above all, the camaraderie between the captain and the crew was evident, creating a friendly atmosphere that extended to the guests, making everyone very friendly by the end of the tour.

The tour started with dolphin watching. We sped out to sea on a speedboat, passing various tour boats. Then, we spotted a pod of dolphins. They jumped and performed impressive twists that made me think, "Are you Shirai-kun?" They chased the boat and swam right next to us. We were just sitting on the edge of the boat, so the experience felt incredibly real. The dolphins were very generous with their performances. Since there were no other boats around, it might have been the captain's secret spot.

We also had plenty of time for snorkeling. On the way back, the boat tilted so much that I thought it might capsize, and the captain was really into it. It was much more thrilling and fun than any amusement park attraction. The lava caves were definitely a place that other boats wouldn't reach. I highly recommend participating. By the way, my husband and I are in our 60s, and many of the Americans participating were quite elderly as well.

英語力がほとんどない私達夫婦。 それでもキャプテンや同乗の女性クルーが何かと気を遣ってくれ、日本人は2人だけという状況でも全く困りませんでした。
チェックインの時もスタッフの笑顔が感じよかったし、何よりもキャプテンとクルーの仲が良く、その雰囲気がゲストにまで伝わってツアーの終わりには皆が大変フレンドリーになっていました。ツアーはイルカウォッチングからスタート。いろんなツアーの船が来ていたところからスピードボートで沖へひたすら走る、走る。すると、そこにイルカの群れが。ジャンプして、おまけに、おまえは白井君かと思わず感心するほどの見事なひねり。ボートの後を追いかけたり、すぐ横を泳いだり。何せボートの縁に腰かけているだけですから、そのリアルなことといったら。イルカ君たちも大サービス。他の船はいませんでしたからキャプテンの秘密ポイントかも。
シュノーケリングの時間もたっぷり。帰りにはボートがひっくり返るんじゃないかというくらいあっちに傾けたりこっちに傾けたり、キャプテンもノリノリ。そこいらのアトラクションよりずっと迫力があり面白かったですよ。溶岩洞窟は他のボートでは絶対あそこまで行けないだろうし。参加をお勧めします。ちなみに私達夫婦は60代。参加されていた米国の方達も結構高齢でしたよ。

Fantastic!

Reviewed by: Camry

If you're visiting the Kona side of the Big Island, this dinner cruise is a MUST! It has it all: beautiful coastal views as you sail down to the Captain Cook monument, knowledgable guide who provides interesting historical information about the island (my husband and I love to learn new things), friendly/service-oriented staff, great dinner buffet, and a free premium drink! It was so relaxing and not too short of a cruise (but also not too long). We had a great time! Definitely would do it again.

6名限定！ハワイ島　野生のイルカウォッチング+ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー＜午前／英語ガイド／軽食付＞

Dolphin swim ドルフィンスイム

Reviewed by: いるか

I thought I was fine since I had already seen dolphins in Honolulu, but when my schedule opened up, I quickly changed my plans to join. Since it was a small group, the price was a bit higher, but I enjoyed it thoroughly. I never thought I would be able to do a dolphin swim, but surprisingly, I was able to! I wore longer fins, and a female staff member guided me underwater, allowing me to catch up with the pod of dolphins several times. It was truly moving. I don't think I'll have an experience like this again. I felt that the small group size contributed to it. The dolphins in Honolulu were just passing by, so swimming with them was quite far from reality. Also, the wetsuits need to be reserved in advance, so the water can get quite cold, so don't forget if you need one. The sun is strong, but it can get pretty chilly while moving around. There was no mention of tips, but since it's Hawaii, I was encouraged to pay the captain, so I did. I happened to have cash on hand, which was good, but I think it would help everyone if it was mentioned in advance. It was a very valuable experience. Thank you very much.

イルカはホノルルで見たからもういいかなと思っていたのですが、日程が開いたので急遽予定変更で参加しました。少人数なのでお値段は少し高めでしたが、十分に楽しめました。ドルフィンスイムなんてあり得ないと思っていましたが、なんとなんと出来ましたよ。長めのフィンを装着し、女性のスタッフが水中で手引きして下さり、イルカの群れにグングンと追いつく事が数回出来ました。感動感動でした。こんな経験はもうないだろうなと思います。少人数だからこそかなとも感じました。ホノルルのイルカは移動中だったので一緒に泳ぐとは程遠いかったです。またウエットは事前予約なので海中は結構冷えますから必要な方はお忘れなく。日差し強いですが移動中は結構冷えます。またチップの記載が無かったのですがハワイですからキャプテンに払う様に促されたので、支払いました。たまたま持ち合せていたので良かったですが、必要であれば記載していてくれると皆さん助かると思います。とても貴重な経験でした。ありがとうございました。

Deluxe Captain Cook Snorkeling Tour at Kealakekua Bay - Fair Wind Cruises

Load up the cattle, Pa! We're goin' a snorklin'!

Reviewed by: eyeballs

The Good:
The snorkeling was amazing, right by the capt. cook monument, lots of fish and coral to be seen. The staff was VERY friendly and accommodating to the needs of the clients (snorkeling alternatives for the scared/claustrophobic, flotation devices, vast selection of equipment). The food was better than expected (continental breakfast followed by a hot dog or a well done BBQ cheeseburger, very thin but acceptable.) Booze was reasonably priced.

The Bad:
The boat was at MAXIMUM capacity. SNUBA is an extra $70 (surprise!) There is a dude videotaping the whole thing and semi-forcably interviewing EVERYONE (even the very socially uncomfortable, myself) who seemed very used-car-salesmanly. He sold his DVD for $70, even though it seemed like mostly stock footage.

The Verdict:
Would not do again. Should be 50% cheaper or 50% less crowded. If you really just want to see some fish buy yourself a snorkel and mask and get yourself to the capt. cook monument via hike or kayak

A healing moment with dolphins. イルカとともに癒しのひと時

Reviewed by: Shigeru & Mari

For our 25th wedding anniversary, we finally visited the Big Island of Hawaii! On August 29, we encountered a dream come true with a large pod of dolphins. I was so mesmerized that I couldn't take good photos, which is a bit disappointing, but I won't forget their graceful swimming and the joyful spins they did.

I was deeply moved by Daisuke's profound love for dolphins and his extensive knowledge. Thank you for a wonderful time!

My dream has come true!!! 夢が叶いました！！！

Reviewed by: かねこ

About a month ago, on September 19, I participated in the tour. I actually misunderstood the reservation date, and although the actual reservation was for September 18, I was kindly assisted over the phone and was able to change it to the following day when there happened to be an opening. Despite the inconvenience I caused, I was very happy to participate in the tour the next day.

As for the dolphins, they were even more amazing than I had imagined! I dove a total of 7 to 8 times, and I only missed seeing the dolphins once! I was even able to see the rare spinner dolphin, which is typically only spotted about once a month, and I was truly moved. Those who have participated in similar tours on Oahu praised the Big Island, saying it is incomparable.

The guide led us close enough to touch the dolphins if we had the chance, allowing us to feel their presence more than I had expected.

Regarding the equipment and supplies, they provided prescription snorkeling goggles and wetsuits, and for those who are not confident swimmers, they offered flotation devices, so I believe even those who are anxious about entering the water can participate in the tour with peace of mind. Of course, the captain and guide provided very thorough explanations in advance, so I had no feelings of anxiety at all.

There were various aspects, but I truly had the best time participating in this tour. Thank you so much for making my dream come true!!!

It was a tour that exceeded my expectations! ☆ 期待値以上のツアーでした☆

Reviewed by: Jun

This time, I came to the Big Island for a solo trip due to a friend's work schedule. I forgot my driver's license and thought I would have to rely on tours for enjoyment, so I looked for a tour after arriving on the Big Island. I've seen dolphins before, but the idea of swimming close to them was appealing, so I signed up.

I was a bit anxious because I don't have much confidence in swimming, but our guide, Daisuke, took care of me and others who were not great swimmers, allowing us to see the dolphins up close. Daisuke really loves dolphins, and it was clear he wanted to share that passion with the tour participants.

Additionally, since the tour used a rubber boat, everyone could quickly get into the water, which meant we had fewer missed opportunities when dolphins swam by, and we were able to see them multiple times. I was impressed by how well the captain and Daisuke communicated, which made it all possible.

When I come back to the Big Island, I think I'll invite my friends along.

今回、友達の仕事の都合で、急遽一人旅としてハワイ島に来ました。
運転免許証も忘れ、ツアーでつないで楽しむしかないと思い、ハワイ島についてからツアーを探しました。イルカは見たことはあるけど、一緒に近くで泳ぐってのは魅力的だなと思い申込みました。
僕は、泳ぎはほとんど自信がないので、少し不安がありましたが、ガイドのダイスケさんが、僕やその他、泳ぎが苦手な人にもケアしてくれていて、間近でイルカを見ることができました。ダイスケは、とてもイルカが好きな方で、ツアー参加者にもそれを伝えたいということが伝わってきました。
また、ツアーではゴムボート状の船なので、皆がすぐに海に入れるため、イルカが通りすぎるといったことが少なく、何回も見ることができました。
キャプテンとダイスケさんがうまくコミュケーションをとっているからできるんだなと感心しました。
またハワイ島に来たときは友達も誘ってみようと思います。

Second visit to Kealakekua Bay. ２回目のケアラケクア湾

Reviewed by: MARIKO

Last year, three adults participated in the morning tour. It was so good that we decided to join again. This year, since my grandchild is with us, we participated in the afternoon tour with a shorter snorkeling time. It seems the weather is better in the morning, but we still had a great time even with a little cloud cover. My grandchild enjoyed looking underwater with the mat that has a glass viewing window and was able to see many fish! Kealakekua Bay is truly beautiful! Next time, I want to join the morning tour again where we can enjoy snorkeling twice.

去年は大人3人で午前のツアーに参加。とても良かったので再度の参加を決めました。今年は孫が一緒なのでスノーケル時間の短い午後のツアーに参加しました。午前中の方がお天気はいいようですが、少し曇でも十分楽しめました。孫もガラスの覗き窓のついたマットでずっと海中を覗いて魚がたくさん見れたようで楽しんでくれました♪ケアラケクア湾は本当に綺麗です♪次回はスノーケルが2回楽しめる午前のツアーにまた参加したいです。

I really saw dolphins passing right by! They were mating in front of us. There were also a mother and her baby. Of course, we could see them clearly and hear their sounds. I was very satisfied. On the way back, I was lucky enough to encounter a manta ray as well. However, I was really envious of our guide Daisuke, who was diving and playing with the dolphins, so I promised myself that I would learn to dive and come back again.

We participated in a 1.5-hour course with a group of five, including two of us and three American family members. We leisurely progressed in a single line through a very spacious and pleasant ranch. Perhaps because there were children, we mostly walked at a slow pace. They also gave us time to stop and take photos along the way. The riding time was exactly one and a half hours. It was fun, but I thought that a 2.5-hour ride might get boring.

私達2名、アメリカ人の親子グループ3名の計5名で、1.5時間コースに参加しました。とても広々として気持ちの良い牧場を、概ね1列になってのんびり進みます。お子さんもいたからかほとんど並足でした。途中立ち止まって写真を撮る時間も取ってくれます。乗っている時間はちょうど1時間半でした。楽しいですが、2.5時間だと飽きるかもしれないと思いました。

The best experience! 最高の体験！

Reviewed by: ARATA

Swimming with dolphins has been a dream of mine for a long time. I finally participated in the long-awaited tour. I arrived at the location by rental car without getting lost. After receiving a thorough briefing from the captain and guide, we set sail!

There were only four participants that day. Usually, there are about ten people, so I felt lucky to have a smaller group! This meant we could enter the water more times than usual. There were even some strong adventurers who joined us from Oahu for a day trip.

We spotted a pod of dolphins! Time to enter the water. The sea had exceptional clarity! According to the guide, such clarity is rare. I felt fortunate today, sensing something special was about to happen. We positioned ourselves ahead of the dolphins' path and waited. The dolphins approached leisurely from a distance, and the pod passed right in front of me! I had been waiting for this moment! I could hear the dolphins' sounds, and it felt like we were connecting.

That day, I was even luckier to encounter a group of 300 to 400 dolphins! The guide mentioned that this is also quite rare. To top it off, we encountered a manta ray! I even got to see the collaboration between the manta ray and the dolphins! I was once again moved by the grandeur of Hawaii's nature. I was fortunate enough to have the best experience that day. Thank you to the captain and the guide!

If I have the chance again, I would like to try snorkeling and dive a bit more to swim with the dolphins. A waterproof camera is definitely a must!

I participated with three friends (*^^*)
None of us could actually swim! We thought we could manage since we had wetsuits. It had been two years since I last went to the ocean, and when I finally got in, I panicked and started to drown. However, Mr. Nawata quickly noticed I was in trouble, and Daisuke, the swimming specialist, came to my rescue (>_<). I really didn't know what to do, but Daisuke stayed by my side and gradually helped me calm down. By the time I returned to the boat, I thought I wouldn't go back into the ocean again. But then I realized that it would be a shame to leave without seeing the dolphins, thanks to the encouragement from Mr. Nawata and Daisuke. Honestly, I was really scared of the ocean. However, Daisuke stayed close to me and worked hard to take me near the dolphins!! Thanks to Daisuke, I was able to see the dolphins up close!! They came so close that I could almost reach out and touch them (>∀<). I truly felt it was a miracle to see the dolphins so near!! My heart was filled with emotion!! Furthermore, I could hear their sounds when they were close by!! It really healed my heart!! The dolphins lifted my spirits! I had a few opportunities to snorkel, and by the end, I was able to swim in the ocean by myself! I was surprised at myself!! The joy of meeting the dolphins far outweighed my fear of the ocean!!
I think participating in this dolphin option was the best experience! I believe it was because of Mr. Nawata and Daisuke that they noticed and helped me immediately when I was drowning, and they taught me the joy of swimming with dolphins!! I think even those who are not confident in swimming can participate with peace of mind! If you want to see dolphins even a little, why not give it a try? It will change your perspective immensely! With Mr. Nawata and Daisuke, I’m sure you’ll create wonderful memories (^o^)/
I plan to go to the Big Island again next year! I would like to ask Mr. Nawata and Daisuke for their help again at that time!! Thank you, Mr. Nawata and Daisuke, for letting me meet the dolphins!!

Beautiful sea and delicious hamburgers. 美しい海とおいしいハンバーガー

Reviewed by: benimama

We participated as a mature couple. Despite putting in the effort to scout the day before, we made the mistake of forgetting to reconfirm, which made us a bit anxious on the day of the event. However, we passed through the check-in without any issues.

The boat was surprisingly large and didn't sway too much, but there were some people who got seasick, so motion sickness medication might be essential. Most of the passengers were Westerners. There were a couple and a family from South Korea, but we were the only Japanese. All the explanations were in English, which went right over my head. However, it was fine as long as I carefully read the Japanese instructions handed out at check-in.

Kealakekua Bay has exceptional clarity. We enjoyed a luxurious time playing with beautiful fish. Previously, I had dived at various resorts as a resort diver, but I was moved by the beautiful underwater scenery after a long time. The weather was good, and the light shone through, making the corals and colorful fish sparkle. This was the first time I felt so satisfied with snorkeling.

The hamburger for lunch was very delicious, and I couldn't help but ask for a second serving. If I come back to the Big Island, I would love to see that beautiful sea again.

熟年夫婦で参加しました。前日に下見をするほど念を入れたのに、うっかりリコンファームを忘れるという失態。当日、ヒヤヒヤしたものの問題なく受付通過。

船は意外に大きく揺れもそれほどではなかったですが、船酔いした人がいたので酔い止めは必携かもしれません。乗客は欧米人がほとんど。韓国人のカップルとファミリーはいたものの日本人は私たちだけ。説明は全て英語で、私の耳を素通りしていきました。重要事項は受付で渡された日本語の説明書を熟読すれば大丈夫です。

ケアラケクア湾は透明度抜群。キレイな魚たちと遊ぶ贅沢な時間を堪能しました。以前、リゾートダイバーで色々なリゾートで潜りましたが、久しぶりに美しい海中の光景に感動。天候が良かったこともあり、光が差し込みキラキラ輝くサンゴと色とりどりの魚たち。シュノーケルでここまで満足したのは初めてです。

昼食のハンバーガーはとっても美味で、思わずおかわりしてしまいました。またハワイ島に来ることがあれば、もう一度あの美しい海を見たいと思います。

On my first visit to Hawaii, I thought I couldn't miss the dolphin swimming tour, so I checked out tours from other companies and decided to sign up for this one. The meeting point was local, and they provided a detailed map, so I was able to find it without getting lost.

Fortunately, we encountered a pod of dolphins about 15 minutes after the boat departed... it was an emotional moment. After the pod passed by, we were able to get ahead of them and greet the dolphins again, and we did this five times. We could see the dolphins at a distance that felt almost within reach; it was truly like swimming with them.

Our guide, Dai, really conveyed his love for dolphins, which was evident throughout the tour. It goes without saying that the captain's keen eye and steering skills helped us encounter the pod. Since I was wearing a wetsuit, I ended up floating on the surface, so next time I participate, I would like to swim a bit without a wetsuit during warmer weather. I bragged about this experience to my friends back in Japan.

初めてのハワイ訪問でイルカと泳ごうツアーははずせないと思い他の催行会社のツアーも見た上でこちらのツアーに申し込み参加しました。　現地集合だったのですが集合場所の地図も丁寧に載せていただいていたので迷うことなく行けました。　　幸運にも船が出港して１５分くらいでイルカの群れに出会えました・・・感動の瞬間です。　群れが通り過ぎると船で先回りしてまたイルカ達を出迎えるという形式ですがそれが５回もできました。　手の届きそうな距離でイルカを見れる、まさにイルカと泳ぐと言ってもいいくらいです。　ガイドのダイちゃん、ホントにイルカが大好きなんだなぁということがすっごく伝わってきます。　　船長さんの確かな目と操舵でイルカの群れに遭遇できたのは言うまでもありません。　　ウエットスーツを着ていたのでどうしても海面に浮いたままだったので、次に参加するときは暖かい時期であればウエットスーツなしで少し潜って泳ぎたいと思いました。　日本に帰ってから友人たちに自慢しまくりました。

マウナケア山頂 サンセット＆星空観測ツアー ＜午後／天体望遠鏡／夕食付／英語ガイド＞ by ハワイフォレスト＆トレイル

Breathtaking views and valuable experiences 絶景と貴重な体験

Reviewed by: AKIKO

Since all the Japanese tours were fully booked, I was unsure of what to do, but since it was the purpose of my trip, I thought I would manage even though I didn't understand English, and I decided to participate alone. It's necessary to do some research in advance since you have to take a taxi to the meeting point. When I arrived, there were mostly Western couples of various ages. There were a few Japanese people as well, which made me feel a bit more at ease. We traveled by bus to the summit of Mauna Kea, but it gets quite cold along the way, so it's best to dress warmly. We had lunch at a spot where we set up a tent. After that, we continued on a bumpy road, and I was worried about not being able to see the stars due to the fog, but when we reached the top, it cleared up, and we could see the sunset. It was a sensation unlike anything I had experienced before. The oxygen was thin, so it would have been good to bring some candy. After the sun went down, we went to see the stars. The stars were huge and incredibly beautiful. Since it was an English tour, I couldn't understand the explanations at all, but please enjoy the scenery. It was too cold, so I returned to the bus (laughs). I was happy that the driver, Maka, was very kind and attentive. We returned around 11 PM, and it was helpful that they dropped me off at my hotel. It was a valuable experience, and I really enjoyed it.

日本語ツアーがどれも満員だった為、どうしようと思いましたが、今回の旅の目的だったので英語がわからなったかですが、何とかなるかなと1人でしたが思いきって参加しました。集合場所までタクシーでいかないといけないのであらかじめ下調べは必要です。着いてからは殆ど欧米のカップル（年齢はバラバラ）でした。日本人も何組かいたので少し安心しました。全てバスでマウナケアの山頂までいくのですが、途中かなり寒くなるので防寒対策は上下しっかりしていった方がいいです。途中テントを張ったとこでゴハンを食べます。その後は、ガタガタした道を進んでいくのですが霧で前が見えなく、星が見えるのか心配してましたが、頂上にいくと一気に晴れ夕焼けが見えます。今までに見た事のない感覚でした。酸素も薄くなるので飴など持っていった方がよかったです。日が沈んでから星を見に行きます。星が大きくすごくきれいでした。英語ツアーなので説明は全くわからなかったですが景色を堪能して下さい。寒すぎてバスに戻りましたが（笑）ドライバーのmakaさんがとても優しく気にかけてくれたので嬉しかったです。帰りは23時くらいですがホテルまてま送ってくれたので助かりました。貴重な体験ができすごくよかったです。

Oceanfront Royal Kona Resort Luau Voyagers of the Pacific Show - Dinner, Drinks & Fire Knife Dance

Awesome Luau

Reviewed by: Ashley

This was the first luau any of us had ever been to. It was an awesome dinner and show. They weren't stingy on the alcohol and everyone was very nice. A highlight of the show was the guy that juggled knives while they were on fire. After the show, the dancers came out to meet and take pictures! I would definitely recommend this show to anyone!

It's okay if you can't swim! 泳げなくても大丈夫！

Reviewed by: K夫婦

I was only worried about the fact that I can't swim, but I thought it would be amazing to swim with dolphins, so I decided to participate. Once I joined, my anxiety about not being able to swim disappeared (laughs). Before I knew it, I was swimming farther than everyone else (big laugh) and was completely absorbed in swimming with the dolphins. The excitement I felt when I saw the dolphins underwater for the first time will stay with me forever. I want to go to the Big Island again to participate in this tour. Yes! It's okay even if you can't swim! The staff provides support and lends you floatation devices (noodles), so you can feel at ease. I highly recommend this tour!!

私（妻）が泳げない事だけが気がかりでしたが、イルカと泳げるなんて最高！と思い思い切って参加しました。
いざ参加してみると‥‥泳げない事への不安もどこへやら（笑）。気がつけば皆さんよりも遠くまで泳いでいたり（大笑）夢中になってイルカちゃんと一緒に泳いでいました。
海中でイルカちゃんを初めて見た時の感動は一生忘れないでしょう。
またこのツアーに参加するためにハワイ島へ行きたいと思っています。
そうです！泳げない方でも大丈夫です！スタッフの皆さんのサポートや、浮き具（ヌードル）を貸して下さいますので安心して下さい。かなりオススメのツアーですよ！！

Friendly staff and dolphins. 感じの良いスタッフさんとイルカ

Reviewed by: Yasu

I participated in a company training trip with two other men, making a group of three. I thought we might stand out a bit, but in the end, we had an amazing time. The dandy captain and the handsome instructor really lightened the mood and made the atmosphere enjoyable for our group of about ten people.

We got to see dolphins up close multiple times, and the three of us were super moved. We promised each other that next time we would come with our families or partners (laughs).

Even three scruffy guys can have fun on this tour. I highly recommend it!

会社の研修旅行で30台～40台の男3人で参加。
ちょっと浮いたグループかなーと思っていたら、
結果超楽しく過ごせました。
ダンディなキャプテンとイケメンのインストラクターのコンビが雰囲気を和らげてくれ、10人ぐらいのグループの雰囲気を和ませてくれました。

イルカを間近で何回も見れて、男三人で超感動。
次は家族やカップルで来ようと誓いあいました（笑）

むさくるしい男3人でも楽しめるこのツアー。
超オススメです。

Getting up close to dolphins☆☆ イルカに大接近☆☆

Reviewed by: Kuri

By chance, the day we participated, both the sky and the sea were calm, and the dolphins were in full play mode! They swam right past us multiple times, as if to say, "You're swimming too slowly!" This time we were lucky! The captain, Mr. Nawata, mentioned that the dolphins were coming close to us, and he was always considerate of all the participants to ensure everyone had a good time. We were truly fortunate to be guided by Mr. Nawata, who was full of hospitality. Our swim guide, Daisuke, was also reliable, pulling us along to the dolphins even when we lagged behind! We would love to participate again! Maybe next time in February for the whales... Thank you so much!

偶然にも参加した日は、空、海ともに穏やかで、気を良くしたイルカちゃんは遊びモード全開!!　「泳ぐの遅いわねッ」と言わんばかりに私たちの真横を何度も通り抜けていきました。
今回はラッキーだよ！イルカが寄って来てくれてるから・・・って、キャプテン縄田さんは言われてましたが、参加者全員に楽しんでもらおうと終始気遣ってくださいました。そんなホスピタリティ溢れる縄田さんにガイドしていただいた私たちは本当にラッキー♪♪スイムガイドのだいすけさんも頼もしくて、遅れをとった私たちをグイグイと引っ張りイルカちゃんのもとへ連れて行ってくれました!!
また参加させてくださいねッ！今度は2月のクジラですかね・・・
本当にありがとうございました。
