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。

Tropical fish were swarming right in front of me, and they were beautiful. I had no worries during my first snorkeling experience. I want to do it again.
熱帯魚が目の前に群がっていて、綺麗でした。初めてのシュノーケルも心配不要でした。

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.
本当に、イルカたちがすぐそばを通って行きました!向かい合っているのは交尾しているんですね。親子もいました。もちろんくっきり見えて、声も聞こえます。大満足です。帰り道に運よくマンタにも遭えました。でも、ガイドのダイスケさんが潜水してイルカと遊んでいたのがとっっても羨ましかったので、私も潜水できるようになってまた来ようと心に誓いました。
Dear Moto,
Thank you for participating in our tour the other day. Once you get a little better at diving, you'll see things differently, and dolphins may even come close to play with you out of curiosity. So please practice your diving and come back to visit us again. Daisuke and I are looking forward to your next visit. Aloha!
Moto様 先日は弊社ツアーへご参加頂きまして有難うございました。多少でも潜れるようになると、見え方も違いますし、イルカが興味を持って近くで遊んでくれたりすることもあります。なので是非潜水の練習をして又遊びにいらして下さい。 ダイスケ共々又のお越しをお待ちしております。 アロハ!

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!
イルカと泳ぐことがずっと前からの夢。ようやく念願のツアーに参加。
現地にレンタカーで参加したが特に迷うことなく到着。
キャプテン、ガイドの方から丁寧なレクチャーを受けていざ出航!
その日の参加メンバは全体で4名。いつもなら10名ほどいらっしゃるようですが、
人数が少なくてラッキー!通常よりエントリーする本数が多くできるとのこと。
オアフから日帰りで参加している強者の方も。。
イルカの群れを発見!いざエントリー。
海は抜群の透明度!ガイドさん曰くこれほどの透明度はめったにないとのこと。
今日は運に恵まれて何かよさそうな予感。
イルカの通り道を先回りして待機・・。イルカが遠くからゆったりと近づいてきて
イルカの群れが自分のすぐ目の前を通過!この瞬間を待ってました!
イルカの声も聞け、まるでイルカと通じ合った気分になりました。
その日はさらに幸運なことに300〜400の群れに遭遇!これまためったにないとのこと。
さらにさらにマンタのレフティと遭遇!マンタとイルカのコラボレーションも見れちゃいました!
ハワイの自然の雄大さに改めて感動を受けました。
当日は幸運にも恵まれ最高の体験になりました。
キャプテン、ガイドさん、ありがとうございました!
また機会があれば今度はシュノーケルでもうちょと潜れるようになってイルカと一緒に泳いでみたいと思います。あと防水カメラ必須ですね。
ARATA, I remember that day well as it was truly a long-awaited collaboration with dolphins and manta rays. I aimed to see them, but it had been about three months, right? It was a wonderful day to see them together. Please practice a bit of free diving and join the tour again. You’ll see things from a completely different perspective, even just a little bit of diving... I look forward to our reunion. Aloha!
ARATA様、 最近では本当に久しぶりの イルカ、マンタのコラボレーションだったのであの日の事はよく覚えております。一応狙っていきましたけど、3ヶ月ぶりくらいじゃないかな?同時に観れたのは。という事でとても素晴らしい日でしたね。 是非、素潜りの練習を少しされて又ツアーに参加して下さい。全く違った見え方がするんですよ、少しでも潜ると・・・。再会を楽しみにしています。アロハ!

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!!
友達3人で参加しました(*^^*)
3人とも実は泳げませんでした!
ウェットスーツがあるからなんとかなるかと軽い気持ちで参加しました。2年ぶりという久しぶりの海でいざ海に入ったら、パニックになり溺れてしまいました。ですが、縄田さんが溺れているのをすぐに発見してくれて、泳ぎのスペシャリストのダイスケさんが助けてくれました(>_<)本当にどうしたらいいかわかんなくなっていましたが、ダイスケさんが常に一緒にいてくれて徐々に落ち着くことができました。落ち着いてから船に戻った時には、実はもう海に入らないと思いました。ですが、縄田さんとダイスケさんが励ましてくれたことと、イルカを見えないで帰るなんてあっちゃいけないことだと思いました。本当はすごい海が怖かったです。でも、ずっとダイスケさんがそばにいてくれてイルカの近くまで一生懸命連れていってくれました!!ダイスケさんのおかげで、間近でイルカを見ることができました!!本当に手の届く距離まで、イルカが近くにきてくれました(>∀<)イルカが近くに見えるなんて本当に奇跡なことだと思いしました!!感動で胸がいっぱいになりました!!更に、イルカが近くにいると鳴き声が聞こえました!!本当に本当に心が癒されました!!イルカに心を元気にしてもらいました!何度かシュノーケルをする機会があるのですが、後半には一人で海に入って泳げるようになっていました!自分でもビックリしました!!イルカに会えることの嬉しさが、海の怖さよりも遥かに上回っていました!!
今回のイルカのオプションに参加できたことは最高なことだと思っています!縄田さん、ダイスケさんだからこそ、溺れたときにすぐに気付き助けてくれて、イルカと泳げる喜びを教えてくれたと思っています!!泳ぎに自信のない人も安心して参加できると思います!自信がなくても、少しでもイルカに会ってみたいという人は参加してみたらどうですか?世界観がすごく変わります!縄田さんとダイスケさんならきっと素晴らしい思い出にしてくれると思います(^o^)/
来年もハワイ島に行く予定にしてします!その時はまた縄田さんとダイスケさんにお願いしたいと思ってます!!縄田さん、ダイスケさんイルカに会わせてくれてありがとうございました!!
I will never forget all of you. From my perspective, you weren't drowning, but you were truly in a state of panic. It was the first time I had seen such an expression. Although there were floatation devices, I completely understand that it was still a frightening experience.
Overcoming that fear is a significant challenge, even for men, and I was impressed that you were able to get back into the water again afterward. Thank you so much for having the courage to not give up.
Thanks to your efforts, we were able to make wonderful contact with the dolphins, which was truly great. We were also genuinely happy and almost brought to tears. Please do come back and play with us again. Daisuke and I are looking forward to it from the bottom of our hearts. Aloha!
皆さんの事は忘れ様にも忘れられません。私から見ると、溺れてはいませんでしたが、本当にパニック状態でしたね。あんな表情を見たのは初めてです。 浮き具があるので、実際には沈みませんが、それでもコワイ思いをされたのは十分に分かります。
その恐怖に打ち勝つのは男性でも、大変な事、 よくあの後にもう一度海に入れましたね。 その勇気に感動しました。そして諦めず勇気を出してくれて本当に有難うございました。
でも頑張ってくれたおかげで、見事にイルカたちとコンタクトを取ることが出来て、本当によかったですね。 私たちも心から嬉しくて涙が出そうでした。 是非是非、又 皆さんで遊びにいらして下さい。 ダイスケ共々、心よりお待ちしております。 アロハ!

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。
Thank you for participating in our tour the other day, Yoshi. We often have customers who want to dive, and in such cases, you can enter without a wetsuit. If you contact us in advance, we can also prepare rash guards, so please do try a bit of free diving next time. The way you see dolphins underwater is completely different from how they appear on the surface, and it's really wonderful. We look forward to seeing you again. Aloha.
Yoshiさん、 先日は弊社ツアーへのご参加有難うございました。 うちは潜りたいと言うお客様もよくご参加になりますが、そういう場合はウエットスーツ無しで入れます。事前にご連絡くださればラッシュガードもご用意できますので、次回は是非少し素潜りにも挑戦して下さい。 海面で見るイルカとは又全く違うイルカの見え方がしますので、それもすごくいいですよ。 では、又お目にかかれる日を楽しみにお待ちしています。アロハ

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!!

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!

I participated on August 25th. As Mr. Nawata cheerfully said, "Dolphins are natural creatures, so there's no 100% guarantee, but we will do our best!" we entered the water at just the right moment to see many dolphins, and when they disappeared, we boarded the boat again. He also created many opportunities by saying, "This way!" while observing their movements.
The staff members were wonderful. I was very impressed by their proactive support for elderly participants and children. They made sure each participant felt satisfied by bringing us close to the dolphins, saying things like, "You were really close just now, [Name]!" The teamwork was outstanding, with Maddy on the boat loudly informing us, "They are coming toward us from 20 meters away." It was heartwarming to see how much they love dolphins and enjoy their work, conveying their desire for participants to experience this joy.
Meeting so many dolphins up close felt like a dream.
It was so much fun that I participated again during my stay. Mr. Nawata mentioned, "The last time was so great, so don't expect too much this time," but the second time exceeded the first! Right beneath us, a pod of 5 to 6 dolphins danced multiple times. At one point, our swim guide Daisuke joined in on the dolphins' play. It was a very happy sight to witness.
The boat swaying felt like an attraction and was enjoyable, but for those who are not confident with even a little motion, I recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance. It's a wonderful opportunity, after all.
Thank you to everyone at Aloha Konas, all the fellow passengers, the dolphins, and the great nature of the Big Island for such a fun time. With heartfelt gratitude.
8月25日に参加しました。「イルカは、自然の生き物だから100%はないけど、ウチは粘るよ~」と縄田さんが明るく笑顔でおっしゃっていた通り、イルカの動きをよんで「さあ、今!」と海に入り、いっぱいイルカに会って、いなくなると、再び乗船。また、動きを見て「こっちだよ」とたくさんの機会をつくってくださいます。
素晴らしいのが、スタッフの方々。高齢の方や、お子さんを積極的にフォローする姿勢に、大変好感をもちました。また、参加者一人ひとりに、「〇〇さん、さっきすごく近くだったね」「〇〇さんも」とみんなが満足できるように、イルカの近くまで連れていってくださいます。チームワークも抜群で、船上からマディさんが「20m先からこっちに向かってきているよ」など大きな声で教えてくれます。そして、イルカが大好きで楽しんで仕事をしていて、参加者に「この楽しさをぜひ味わってもらいたい」という気持ちが伝わってくることを嬉しく思いました。
たくさんのイルカと、ものすごく近くで会って、夢のような時間でした。
あまりに楽しかったので、滞在中に再び参加しました。縄田さんは、「前回が良すぎだったから、期待しすぎないでねー」とおっしゃっていましたが…、
2回目は1回目以上!
私たちが浮いている真下で、イルカが5~6頭の群れになって何回も踊って(?)いました。
途中からは、スイムガイドのダイスケくんもイルカたちの遊びに加わっていました。
見ていて、とても幸せな光景でした。
船が揺れてアトラクションみたいで楽しいのですが、
少しでも揺れに自信がない方は、酔い止めの薬を事前に飲まれることを
おすすめします。せっかくの楽しい機会なので…。
アロハコナーズの皆様、一緒に乗船した皆様、イルカちゃんたち、ハワイ島の大自然、
とても楽しい時間をありがとうございました。
心からの感謝をこめて。
Thank you very much, Tomomi, for participating in two dolphin tours, the manta night tour, and the Big Island's charm tour during your stay. We truly appreciate your valuable feedback, and all of our staff would like to express our gratitude.
I believe you are the first guest to join so many of our tours in one stay, which has left a strong impression on our staff. Please come back to visit us and meet the dolphins of the Big Island again. We all sincerely look forward to the day we can see you again. Aloha!
Tomomiさん、ご滞在中、2回のイルカツアーご参加、そしてマンタナイトツアー、ハワイ島の魅力全開ツアーもご参加頂きまして本当に有難うございました。貴重なコメントも頂きスタッフ一同お礼申し上げます。
一度の滞在中にTomomiさん程うちのツアーにご参加になられた方も始めてかと思います。なので、我々スタッフの印象に強く残っております。又私達、そしてハワイ島のイルカに会いに帰って来て下さいね。、再びお会いできる日をスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。アロハ!

On the boat, they ask for your fin size and provide you with the appropriate ones. They also have snorkeling gear available. They lend you a type of life jacket that wraps around your waist (suitable for both children and adults), so you don’t need to bring your own goggles.
It takes about an hour to reach Cook's Tower by boat, and even though our family took motion sickness medication, we felt a bit queasy. The BBQ cheeseburgers were incredibly delicious, just as mentioned in other reviews! The breakfast muffins were tasty, reminiscent of Costco's.
This was my family's first time participating after visiting the Big Island six times, and we were more satisfied than with any other tour. The beauty of the ocean was amazing.
船の上で、フィンのサイズを聞いて、サイズにあったものを貸してくれます。シュノーケリング道具も。
浮き輪も腰に巻くタイプの(子供から大人まで)ライフジャケット(?)浮きを貸してくれるので、ゴーグルなどの持参も必要ないです。
クックの塔まで1時間くらい船に揺られるので、私たち家族は(酔い止め薬を飲んでいても)少し酔いました。
BBQのチーズバーガーは他の書き込み通り、とっても美味しかったです!朝食のマフィンはコストコのかな?って感じで美味しかったです。
6度目のハワイ島で、初参加でしたがどの観光よりも満足で、海の綺麗さが素晴らしかったです。

I used this service on August 3rd for my honeymoon. While I was excited to swim with the dolphins, I also had some fear about the ocean. Thanks to the thorough explanations about ocean safety and how to enjoy it, I was able to overcome my fears and have a great time! On the way to meet the dolphins, I also encountered manta rays, and I was able to see over 200 dolphins! It was truly exhilarating! Thank you for the wonderful memories! I will definitely participate again! *\(^o^)/*
ハネムーンで8/3に利用させて頂きました。
海のイルカと泳ぐのが楽しみな反面、海に対して少し怖い気持ちもあった私に、しっかりと海の安全性や楽しみ方を教えてくださったおかげで、恐怖心から克服出来、楽しむことが出来ました!!
イルカに会いに行く途中、マンタとも会うことが出来、目的のイルカには200頭以上に合うことが出来ました!!本当に大興奮!!楽しい思い出をありがとうございました!また絶対参加します*\(^o^)/*
Dear Mr. and Mrs. K, thank you for your comment. We believe that even those who are not comfortable with the ocean or cannot swim can still have the desire to meet dolphins, and we would love for you to experience it. We strive to provide as much support as possible. Please feel free to recommend us to friends who cannot swim with confidence. We are also very happy that this became a precious memory for both of you on your honeymoon. Please come back again. Aloha.
Kご夫妻 様、 コメント有難うございます。 うちは海が苦手という方や、泳げないという方も、イルカと会いたいと思う気持ちさえお持ち頂いていれば、是非観て頂きたいと思っておりますし、
出来るだけのサポートを心掛けております。泳げないお友達にも安心してオススメして下さい。 そして今回はお二人のハネムーンの大切な思い出となれた事とても嬉しく思います。
又、帰ってきて下さいね。アロハ

It was my first dolphin tour on the Big Island. I had tried three times on Oahu, but I wasn't lucky with the weather, so this was my fourth attempt!
It was absolutely amazing!! From the moment we got in, we could see dolphins up close! Even without searching hard, dolphins were swimming nearby, and it was so moving! I could hear their sounds the whole time!
Compared to Oahu, the travel time on the boat was shorter, and we didn't have to get on and off the boat multiple times. Dolphins kept coming to the same spot, so it felt like we could see them the whole time we were swimming.
Even if you're not a strong swimmer, they lend you a noodle, and the guide, Daisuke, pulls you to the dolphins, so it's very reassuring! Daisuke's dolphin talks during the car ride were also a lot of fun and really added to the tour! (By a strange twist of fate, he even shared some local stories!)
I definitely want to go back to the Big Island for this tour again! Thank you, Captain and Daisuke!!
ハワイ島での初めてのイルカツアーでした。
これまでオアフ島で3回チャレンジしましたが、
なかなか良い日に恵まれず、今回4度目のリベンジ!
とにかくすごかったですっ!!
入った瞬間から間近にイルカが見れました!
その後も必死に探さなくてもすぐにイルカが近くに泳いでいて、感動しきりでした!
イルカの声もずっと聞こえていました!
オアフ島に比べ、船に乗って移動する時間も短く、
何度も船を乗り降りしなくても、同じ場所でどんどんイルカがやって来てくれたので、
泳いでいる間ずっと見れたという感じです。
泳ぎが苦手でもヌードルを貸してもらえますし、
ガイドのダイスケさんがイルカの所まで引っ張って行ってくれるので安心です!
行き帰りの車の中でのダイスケさんのイルカトークもとっても楽しく、
ツアーを盛り上げてくれました!
(不思議な縁で、地元のローカルネタもしゃべれました☆)
このツアーのために、またぜひ!!ハワイ島に行きたいです!
キャプテン、ダイスケさん、ありがとうございました!!
Thank you for your comment, Sachi. Hearing that you had three unsuccessful attempts in Oahu ignited our guiding spirit. I think our desire to show you something special and to meet you reached you. Ideally, if you want to see dolphins, Oahu should be avoided... But I was truly happy that you were able to meet dolphins on your fourth attempt. Please come and visit us again. Daisuke and I are looking forward to it. Aloha.
Sachiさん、 コメント有難うございました。 オアフで3回駄目だったと聞き、僕らのガイド魂に火がつきました。 必ずお見せしたいという思いと、会いたい!という
思いが届いたのかと思います。 そもそもイルカ見たいならオアフ島は避けるべきが前提ですが…。でも4回目でイルカに会ってもらえて本当に嬉しかったです。是非又遊びにいらして下さいね。ダイスケともども お待ちしております。 アロハ

What impressed me the most was the thoughtfulness of Captain and the swim supporter, Daisuke, towards the participants. Their humorous orientation and the way they interacted on the boat created a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere for the entire tour group. It was a tour that clearly conveyed their desire to prioritize customer satisfaction. Perhaps it was also because we were all Japanese.
Now, regarding the dolphins, we spotted a pod just three minutes after departing from the harbor and quickly dropped in. We were able to see many dolphins up close. We chased the pod multiple times, dropping in ahead of them repeatedly, enjoying dolphin watching countless times. While on the boat, we also got to see adorable baby dolphins (the size of skipjack tuna) performing spin jumps, and we truly had a wonderful time surrounded by dolphins.
Meeting the dolphins greatly enhanced our satisfaction, but above all, it was the friendly and kind nature of Captain and Daisuke that filled our hearts during the tour. Thank you very much. It was fun.
最も印象に残ったのは、キャプテンさん、スイムサポータ(ダイスケさん)の参加者への心遣いです。ユーモアを入れたオリエンテーションや船上での対応など、お二人のお人柄もあってツアー客全体が緊張感ほぐれリラックスした居心地の良い雰囲気になりました。随所にお客さんの満足を優先させたいという思いが伝わるツアーでした。日本人同士ということもあったのかもしれませんね。
さて肝心のイルカちゃんですが、船上、3分。ハーバーから出発した直後から群れを発見して早速、ドロップ。たくさんのイルカを間近に見ることができました。その後も何度となく群れを追いかけ、先回りしてはドロップを繰り返して数えることが出来ない回数、ドルフィンウォッチを楽しむことができました。また船上にいるときも、かわいい赤ちゃんイルカ(カツオサイズ)のスピンジャンプを見ることができたり、本当にイルカに囲まれた楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
イルカと会えたことが満足度を引き上げましたが、何と言ってもキャプテン、ダイスケさんの気さくで優しいお人柄で心が満たされたツアーでした。ありがとうございました。楽しかったです。
Thank you very much for your valuable comments, Tama-kichi. I am honestly very happy that you praised not only the dolphins but also us! We will continue to strive without wavering in the future.
That day, we were fortunate to see the dolphins at an exceptionally early stage. It’s lucky! Normally, it takes about 40 minutes to see them... But more than anything, I’m glad that it became a wonderful memory during your trip to the Big Island. Please come back to visit both the dolphins and us again. We are sincerely looking forward to it. Aloha!
Tama-kichi様、 貴重なコメントを有難うございました。 イルカの事だけでなく、私たちの事もお褒め頂き、正直とても嬉しいです!今後もぶれる事なく、精進していきます。
あの日は格別に早い段階でイルカに会えましたね。ラッキーですよ。 ほんとに通常は会えるまで40分前後は掛かりますから・・・。 でも何よりハワイ島のご旅行中のいい思い出にして頂けた様で何よりです。 是非又 イルカにも我々にも会いに遊びにいらしてくださいね。 心よりお待ちしております。 アロハ

We participated as a family of four!!
On that day, we were moved to encounter many dolphins. Above all, the staff's response was wonderful. My child was afraid to swim, but Captain and Daisuke persuaded them, and we managed to get in the water.
Now, my child talks about dolphins every day. Even for those who can't swim, Daisuke will pull and guide you, and it was touching to see the dolphins playing with Daisuke.
They also sell DVDs and will ship them to Japan. I was so moved that I couldn't stop crying. We will definitely come back, so please take care of us again.
Captain, Solomon's flow was perfectly captured too (laughs).
I highly recommend this to everyone when you come to the Big Island!
私たちは家族4人で参加しました!!
その日は多くのイルカ達に出会えて感動しました。
何よりもスタッフの対応が素晴らしく子供が泳ぐのを恐れていましたがキャプテンやダイスケさんが説得して何とか入る事が出来ました。
今では毎日イルカの事ばかり子供は話しています。
泳げない方でもダイスケさんが引っ張って誘導しますし、イルカとダイスケ君が遊んでいる姿は感動しました。
DVDの方も販売していて日本まで発送してくれます。
凄く感動して涙が止まりませんでした。また遊びに来るので是非宜しくお願いします。
キャプテン、ソロモン流もバッチリ映ってましたよ(笑)
皆様もハワイ島に来る際は是非お勧めですよ〜
Thank you for your comment, Sato. I'm so glad that your child, who was initially scared, was able to enter the ocean and meet the dolphins. It was amazing to see them swimming with the dolphins like friends for a while. That’s a rare experience! You were truly lucky. Please come back and visit us again. All of our staff are looking forward to it. I haven't seen "Solomon's Flow" yet, but I'm looking forward to receiving the DVD from the TV station. Well then, aloha!

泳いでましたね。あんなのは滅多にありません。 本当にラッキーでしたね。 是非又遊びにいらして下さいね。スタッフ一同お待ちしております。 ソロモン流、自分ではまだ観てないんですよ。

I read experiences about the high encounter rate with dolphins and decided to book this tour. As the captain mentioned, the number of drops was higher than other tours, and I was able to see many more dolphins up close than I expected! Since I can't swim, Daisuke was there to help me, allowing me to see the dolphins really closely and listen to detailed explanations about their behavior, which made me very satisfied. Thank you for taking photos as well.
イルカとの遭遇率が高いという体験談を読み、こちらのツアーを申し込みました。キャプテンのおっしゃっていた通り、ドロップ数が他のツアーよりも多く、イルカを期待していた以上に沢山、そして間近に見ることができました!泳げない私にはダイスケさんがついて下さって本当に近くでイルカをみることができ、イルカの生態などの説明をしっかり聞くこともできて、大満足です。写真も撮ってくださり、ありがとうございました。
Thank you for your comments. We are very happy to hear that it exceeded your expectations. The situation with the dolphins is different every day and every time, which means you can enjoy it no matter how many times you come. We hope you will come to meet the dolphins in Hawaii again.

It was my first time snorkeling, but they provided the flotation devices and followed us closely in the water. There was also someone watching from the boat, so I felt safe and enjoyed myself. Since we moved to where the dolphins are, I think the encounter rate is close to 100 percent. I participated alone, but they were very considerate, helping with everything from getting on and off the boat to taking photos. I highly recommend it!
はじめてのシュノーケルでしたが、浮き具もかしてくれるし、海の中でもしっかりフォローしてくれました。船からも一人、見ていてくれるので、安心して楽しめました。イルカのいる場所まで移動するので遭遇率は100パーセントとに近いと思います。ひとりでの参加でしたが、シュノーケルだけでなく、船の乗り降りから、写真から何かとお気遣いいただしました。おすすめです!
Thank you, Sachiko, for participating the other day. I also appreciate your prompt comment. We will continue to strive to ensure that even customers who join alone can feel at ease. Please do come back to the Big Island; we look forward to welcoming you again.

If you want to see dolphins, Hawaii Island is the place to be! That's why I joined this tour. Actually, I couldn't get a reservation for another tour, so I chose this one, and it might be the best on Hawaii Island, just as the reviews said. I think the facilities and attentiveness were very suitable for Japanese people. Both our guide Leo and Captain Ichiro were friendly and made us feel very secure on the water. We encountered more dolphins than I had expected. It seems that the experience can vary depending on the day's conditions, but I felt like we had ample time. Also, since I got sunburned from kayaking the day before, they recommended some aloe gel from ABC on the way back. I really appreciated their help. I can confidently recommend this tour!
イルカを見るなら大自然のハワイ島だ!ということでこのツアーに参加しました。
実は、他のツアーで予約が取れずこのツアーにしたのですが、
口コミどおり、ハワイ島で一番いいかもしれません。
設備・気遣いともに日本人向きのイルカツアーだったと思います。
ガイドのレオさん・キャプテンのイチローさんともに気さくに接していただき、海の上では非常に頼もしかったです。イルカたちにも期待していた以上に出会うことができました。
その日の状況にもよるようですが、時間も多めにとって頂いた印象です。
また、前日のシーカヤックで日焼けをしすぎた私には、帰りにABCでお勧めのアロエジェルを紹介していただきました。その節は、大変お世話になりました。
このツアー自信を持ってお勧め出来ます。
