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 a bit disappointing that it was cloudy. 曇っていたのがちょっと残念

Reviewed by: NNN

It was disappointing that the sea wasn't very beautiful due to the cloudy weather, but I enjoyed a relaxing cruise and snorkeling. You need to get to the meeting point on your own (I took a round-trip bus. I got a bit flustered when I mistakenly went to the wrong bus stop on the way back). The staff primarily speak English, but if you print out your reservation details and show them at the counter, it's fine even if you can't speak English (I can't speak it at all). Also, I forgot to make the pre-call by the day before, but it was no problem when I arrived at the meeting point an hour early on the day of the tour. There seemed to be over 50 people on the tour, and we were the only Japanese, but the local staff were very accommodating and seemed familiar with Japanese people, so there were no issues.

当日は曇っていた為、海がそこまできれいではなかったのが残念でしたが、のんびりクルージングとシュノーケルが楽しめました。
集合場所までは自力で行く必要があります(往復バスで行きました。帰りのバス乗り場を間違えてちょっと焦りました)。スタッフは基本英語ですが、事前に予約内容を印刷していきカウンターで見せれば英語が話せなくても問題ありません(自分は全く話せません)。また、前日までの事前電話を忘れてしまっていたのですが、当日1時間早く集合場所へ行ったら問題ありませんでした。ツアーは50人以上いたようで、日本人は自分たちだけでしたが、現地スタッフは非常に対応が良く、日本人にも慣れているようで問題ありませんでした。

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>

Encounter with a manta ray. マンタと遭遇

Reviewed by: 由美子

I participated with my 81-year-old mother. I was nervous and worried about whether we could do it, but since we just had to hold onto the rope and float with the snorkeling gear on, we managed to experience it. The manta rays came close to us, and both my mother and I were thrilled.

A few points to note: the boat sways, so it's necessary to take motion sickness medication; after the experience, your wet body cools down quickly, so it's good to bring a bath towel and warm clothing; and since the swimsuit gets wet, having a change of underwear or clothes for the return trip is convenient.

I struggled a bit with putting on the snorkeling gear and had to keep putting my face in and out of the water, but I received solid support as a beginner. Thank you very much.

81才の母と参加しました。出来るかなと緊張し、心配していたのですがロープにつかまってシュノーケリングの器具つけて浮かんでいるだけなので何とか体験しました。マンタも近くに来てくれるし母も私もおおはしゃぎでした。
注意点はボートが揺れるので酔い止めが要ること、体験後濡れた体が急速に冷えるのでバスタオルと防寒具持ってくこと、水着が濡れるので帰りは下着など着替えがあると便利なことなどです。
シュノーケリングの装着が上手く出来ずしばらく顔をつけたり上げたりしてたのですが、初心者にもしっかりサポートしてもらえました。ありがとうございました。

A manta ray with a wingspan of 3 meters passed just 5 cm in front of my nose. 鼻先5cm先を翼長3mのマンタが通り過ぎました

Reviewed by: ミント

It was amazing.
Just by floating with a snorkel connected to a surfboard equipped with LED lights underwater, four large mantas came to us.
My wife, who is a beginner swimmer, was able to enjoy it fully.
The mantas opened their large mouths to eat the plankton gathered around the blue LED light under the surfboard, passing just 5 cm from our noses.
Sometimes the mantas bumped into each other or touched our bodies, and we were incredibly excited by them.
It was definitely an event that made us want to come back again.

凄かったです。
LEDを水中に取り付けたサーフボードに繋がってシュノーケルを着けて浮かんでいるだけで、私たちの所に4匹の大きなマンタがやって来ました。
その為、水泳初心者の妻でも十分楽しめました。
マンタはサーフボード下の青色LEDの光に集まったプランクトンを食べるために大きな口お開けて背面で私たちの鼻先5cmを通り過ぎて行きました。
時にはマンタ通しがぶつかったり、我々の体に触れたりで、我々はそんなマンタに大興奮でした。
是非、また来たいと思えるイベントでした。

Beautiful sunset and starry sky at Mauna Kea. マウナケアで美しいサンセットそして星空

Reviewed by: Kosaaika

Sunset at Mauna Kea.
On the way, we enjoyed the fun stories from our guide and made a stop for photos. We had a delicious bento and miso soup at the Onizuka Center. As a souvenir, I bought a sticker with an illustration of the Subaru Telescope.
After getting acclimated to the altitude, we took commemorative photos in front of the Subaru Telescope. The sunset was incredibly beautiful... but it went by so quickly.

The night sky afterwards was a bit difficult to see due to the nearly full moon, but we were able to see the Southern Cross. We searched for summer constellations together and took commemorative photos... the pictures of the moon turned out beautifully.

It was a very fulfilling tour.

マウナケアでのサンセット。
道中楽しいガイドさんのお話と途中で下車して写真撮影。オニツカセンターでお弁当とお味噌汁を美味しくいただきました。記念にすばる望遠鏡イラストのステッカーを購入。
ゆっくり高地に慣れてから、すばる望遠鏡の前で記念撮影。サンセットはとても美しく…でもあっという間でした。

その後の星空は、満月に近かったため、一部星が見にくいところもありましたが、南十字星も見れました。夏の星座をみんなで探したり、記念撮影したり…月の写真はとてもきれいに撮れました。

とても充実したツアーでした。

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>

I encountered wild dolphins for the first time! はじめて野生のイルカと出会えました!

Reviewed by: りえもん

As soon as we gathered, they kindly and concisely taught us how to use the snorkel and tips for spotting dolphins. We headed to the dolphin encounter spot in about 30 minutes on a high-speed jet.

From the start, we encountered many pods of dolphins. The captain made several moves with the boat, about 4 to 5 times, to get us as close as possible to the dolphins, and at each spot, we met many dolphins. The guide also entered the water with us and helped lead us close to the dolphins. The water was clear and beautiful. At the final spot, a large dolphin swam right beneath us, which was truly moving. Overall, I think we encountered over 50 dolphins, and we could even hear their sounds underwater.

The view of the sea from the boat was also very beautiful. Although I felt a bit anxious about snorkeling for the first time and swimming after a long time, after encountering so many dolphins, I wanted to swim even more. Both the captain and the guide were kind. I definitely want to participate again.

集合して直ぐに、シュノーケルの使い方や、イルカを見つけたときのポイントなどを、簡潔かつ丁寧に教えてくださいました。イルカと出会えるスポットまで約30分、高速ジェットで向かいました。
最初から、たくさんのイルカの群れと遭遇しました。キャプテンはたくさんのイルカとなるべく近くに行けるようにと、その後4〜5回は船で移動を繰り返してくれて、どのスポットもたくさんのイルカと出会いました。ガイドさんも一緒に海に入り、イルカの近くに誘導して下さいました。海の中も透明できれいでした。最後スポットでは、自分たちのちょうど真下を大きなイルカが通り過ぎてくれて感動しました。総じて50頭以上と出会えたと思います。海の中で鳴き声も聞こえました。
船から見える海もとても美しかったです。初めてのシュノーケリング、久しぶりに泳ぐことで若干不安がありましたが、たくさんのイルカと遭遇してからはもっと泳ぎたいと思いました。
キャプテンもガイドさんも親切でした。是非また参加したいです。

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

Great family tour

Reviewed by: Breanne

We went on the kayak tour to a sea cave on June 27th. There were two adult's and 2 kids in our group. Overall they took out 20 people, so 10 double boats, with 2 guides. Happy & Ben were our tour guides and each took turns along the route to tell us interesting facts about the area. We had drinks and snacks at the area for cliff jumping. My only let down was there was no mention of sea caves nor did we go in one which I was really looking forward to since it was on the description and why I chose this one. However overall it was a great experience and the guides were very friendly and fun! The kids really enjoyed it and the snorkel time,

The best experience!! 最高の経験!!

Reviewed by: Rina

I was able to fulfill my dream of "swimming with dolphins"! Both the guide and the captain were truly wonderful people, and they know the waters of Kona inside and out, making for a completely satisfying tour without any complaints.

Moreover, we stopped the boat for just a few minutes before spotting dolphins. While it seems that such luck doesn't happen every time, thanks to Captain K's sound judgment, we were able to encounter the dolphins quickly. He was able to instantly gauge the direction the pod was moving and efficiently took us to the dolphin spot without wasting any time.

This time, the dolphins seemed to be in a great mood, and we saw around 50 of them! They were close enough to reach out and touch (though touching the dolphins is prohibited). It was truly an unforgettable experience.

Guide R, despite being young, was very knowledgeable about Hawaii's history and shared many interesting things with us after the tour. I absolutely recommend this dolphin tour!

「イルカと一緒に泳ぐ」という夢を叶えられました!!
ガイドさん船長さん共に本当にお人柄がよく、コナの海を知り尽くしているので
何の不満もなく大満足のツアーでした☆
しかもイルカ発見まで船を停めてほんの数分、、毎回こんな都合が言い訳ではないようですが
K船長の正しい判断のおかげでイルカたちにすぐ出会えました。
しかもちゃんとイルカの群れが動く方向を瞬時に見極め、無駄なく私たちをイルカスポットに連れて行ってくれます。
今回はイルカの機嫌もとても良かったようで、ざっと50頭は見れました!
そして手を伸ばせば触れられる距離(イルカに触れるのは禁止)。。もう言うことなしの感動です。
ガイドのRさんもお若いのにハワイの歴史を詳しくご存知で、ツアー後もたくさん色んなことを教えてくれました。
ここのイルカツアーは絶対におすすめです!

First class food and entertainment

Reviewed by: Tim and Pam

My wife and I went on the Captain Cook dinner cruise last week, and it was much better than either of us expected. The musical entertainment was first class, and we were able to watch spinner dolphins and short-finned pilot whales. It was hard to hear the narration of the historical sites, but that was probably our fault for sitting on the other side of the boat. We would definitely do this again if we ever visit Kona in the future.

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

More kayaking expected

Reviewed by: Arlene

Our guides were very nice, funny and competent but we had no idea we were kayaking 3 miles total, which took up about 45 minutes each way. The area at which we snorkeled was "OK" - no brilliantly colored coral and saw only a few fish. We did some cliff jumping which was nice. We did not see any caves and nobody explained why. The kayak trip back was slightly difficult and very choppy due to all the boaters. Be aware that you spend much more time kayaking than you do snorkeling and it is physically demanding - one mother-daughter (adult daughter) couple had to be towed back. It was a good experience but wouldn't do it again.

Less about snorkelling, more about water slide on boat

Reviewed by: Sucheta

The main focus of this tour was on the water slide and jumps on the boat. A good activity for families with young children. The snorkelling was average, as was the snorkelling gear provided. Most people snorkelled only for about 20 minutes before getting back to the boat. We saw a lot of dolphins on the way back though, which was excellent. Overall, a good activity got families. As a young couple, we felt it was a bit too noisy for us.

The weather was perfect, and both the sunset and starry sky were magnificent. I kept shouting in my heart, "I'm so glad to be alive! Thank you!" It's difficult to express this scenery in words to those who haven't seen it. I never expected to see the Southern Cross and the Milky Way so clearly. The rings of Saturn were also visible through the telescope! Under the starlight, part of the sea of clouds appeared orange, illuminated by the lava of Kilauea volcano, creating a fantastical scene. Using a laser pointer to explain the constellations in the star-filled sky was very clear, and I understood well how ancient people in Hawaii revered nature and lived while feeling the energy of the universe. Mr. Konno's lecture was so much fun. Thank you for the experience that far exceeded my imagination. I'm so glad I went!

最高の天気で夕日も星空も見事✨
生きてて良かった‼️ありがとう✨と心の中で何度
も叫んでました。この風景、見ていない人に言葉で表現しても伝える事は難しい無理かな❓
南十字星や天の川があんなにはっきり見られるとは思いませんでした。

It was the most wonderful experience with my family. We went the morning program and the weather was great (not too sunny but not too cloudy). The staff crews and captain are wonderful to serve every single passenger. Ola, one of staff remembers our names and keep checking us often. Dolphins were waiting for our Body Grove boat and played with our boat both ways from/to the spot. The snorkeling was beautiful ever and the meals were also wonderful. My wife had a motion sickness and hard time to survive but all other four family members had life-long unforgettable memory. If you have motion sickness, better to prepare some medicine to prevent it. My kids enjoyed the high jumps. There are some waves. Thanks to Captain and all crews.

I finally got to stargaze! It turned into a wonderful night. 念願の星空観測!素敵な夜になりました

Reviewed by: かなぴす

The highlight of my trip to Hawaii was this tour. All the participants were Japanese, and our guide was also Japanese. It was so enjoyable to hear various stories about the Big Island during the drive to the summit, and I was desperately taking notes.

The sunset over the sea of clouds from the summit of Mauna Kea was incredibly mystical. After that, we joined another tour group for stargazing at about 3,900 meters. The explanations about the stars using a laser pointer were very easy to understand. I want that laser pointer!

The sky was filled with stars, just like a planetarium, and I particularly enjoyed seeing the Southern Cross and Scorpius clearly. I was thrilled to see the Milky Way, shooting stars, and even satellites with my own eyes for the first time.

I was anxious about participating since I had no mountain climbing experience, but thanks to the frequent check-ins to prevent altitude sickness, no one fell ill. Just be careful when looking down and then quickly lifting your head, as it can make you feel dizzy.

They provide cold-weather gear, but if you're sensitive to the cold, it's a good idea to bring something like an ultra-light down jacket. Also, batteries drain quickly in cold conditions, so if you want to take a lot of photos, I recommend bringing a charger or spare batteries.

After returning to the hotel, I kept gazing at the constellations we learned about. I definitely want to participate again. Thank you!

まるでプラネタリウムのような満天の星で、特に南十字星とさそり座が綺麗に見えました。初めて肉眼で天の川や流れ星、人工衛星も見ることができ感激しました。
登山経験がないので参加するまで不安でしたが、高山病にならないようこまめに声をかけて下さったおかげで体調を崩す方は1人もいらっしゃいませんでした。ただトイレに行く時など、下を向いてすぐ顔をあげるとクラっとしてしまうことがあるので気をつけて下さい。
防寒着は貸してもらえますが、寒がりの方はウルトラライトダウンなどを用意しておくといいです。また、寒いところではバッテリーの消耗がとても早いため、写真をたくさん撮りたい方は充電器や替えのバッテリーを持っていくことをオススメします。
ホテルに戻ってからも、教えていただいた星座をずっと眺めていました。
また絶対参加したいです。ありがとうございました。

One of the highlights of our trip, so fun! Peena, Tim & crew were awesome. They moved things along nicely and were fun to be with. We saw some amazing Mantas, it was an experience we'll be talking about for a long time!

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>

Reviewed by: きいろ

We arrived at the marina early, carefully applied sunscreen, and felt the excitement build. The captain was cheerful, and out of the 15 people on board, there were four of us: my wife, our friends, and me. We held on tightly to the ropes as we set off, experiencing the thrilling rafting that felt like we might be thrown into the rough waves at any moment. Although there were many young couples around, we, even those of us in our sixties, had a fantastic time. The snorkeling spot we reached was absolutely wonderful, and along the way, dolphins jumped around and followed the boat, which was really fun. The pineapple and oranges we had on the boat were incredibly sweet and unforgettable. On the way back, the captain explained about the lava caves and fault lines, and we got to explore narrow areas that regular boats can't access, enjoying the unique scenery.

マリーナ迄早めにつき、日焼け止めローションを念入りに塗り、緊張感高まる。キャプテンは陽気な方で、15人中日本人は私達夫婦と友達夫婦の4人。しっかりとロープにつかまり出発、荒波に身を投げ出されそうになりながらスリル満点のラフティング。周りは若いカップルが多かったのですが我々アラカンどころか古希組も十分に楽しめました。着いたスノーケルの場所もとても素晴らしかったし、とちゅうでイルカがあちこちでジャンプしてボートについてきておもしろかった。ボートでいただいたパイナップルとオレンジの甘かった事、忘れられない美味しさです。帰り道溶岩の洞窟や、断層などの説明をしてくれたり、普通の船では行かれない狭い所にも入って行けて珍しい気色も堪能できました。
