Since I was staying at the Sheraton near Keauhou Bay, it was easy to get around, and because it was an early morning tour, I was able to spend my time meaningfully. Although I didn't encounter any dolphins or sea turtles, kayaking was a fun experience that I don't often get to do. Compared to Oahu, the water was very clear and beautiful. Viewing the Big Island from the sea was interesting as I could feel the volcanic rock formations and the lush greenery.
ケアウホウ湾近くの、シェラトンに宿泊していたため、移動が楽で、早朝ツアーということもあり、時間を有意義に過ごせました。イルカやウミガメには出会えませんでしたが、カヤックを漕ぐことが、普段なかなかできない体験なので楽しかったです。オアフ島と比較して、海もとても澄んでいて綺麗でした。海の上からハワイ島を見ると火山性の岩の地形や、緑の自然を感じられて面白かったです。

It was such an amazing experience, my husband and I decided to buy a kayak, at some point. The guides were also awesome and they told us some history, as well as helped us found objects that we dropped out of they kayak. One guide actually found my husbands wedding ring that fell off his hand when he jumped off one of the cliffs. It was truly amazing and such a fun time with the group!

I had previously participated in horseback riding in Waipi'o Valley on the Big Island, but this time I joined a horseback riding tour for the first time at the vast "Kohala Coast," which is less than an hour from Waikoloa Beach Resort. The view from the high elevation overlooking the coastline leading to the ranch was spectacular, and I really enjoyed the drive with the rental car.
There were only four of us women on the tour, which made me a bit anxious, but the guide communicated in broken Japanese, and we managed to confirm the necessary precautions through gestures, allowing us to start safely. The explanations during the tour were in English, so I didn't understand much. However, all the horses were calm and well-trained, so I felt safe letting myself go. I enjoyed the fresh air in the vast grasslands while admiring the scenery from horseback, and I had a great time on the "one and a half hour course"!
今までハワイ島でワイピオ渓谷での乗馬に参加していましたが、今回ワイコロアビーチリゾートから1時間弱、大草原「コハラ・コースト」での乗馬に初めて参加しました。標高が高く牧場へ向かう海岸線を見下ろす眺望は素晴らしく、レンタカーでのドライブも結構楽しめました。
ツアー参加者は私達女性4人のみで多少不安でしたが、案内は片言の日本語で何とか身振り手振りで諸注意事項も確認し合い無事にスタートが切れました。途中での説明は「英語」なので、分からない。どの馬も大人しくて良く調教されているので安心して身を任せ、大草原の中美味しい空気を吸いながら馬上から見渡す景色にも感嘆しつつ「1時間半コース」を満喫!!できました。

We participated as a family of four, including my parents and my 5-year-old son. Fortunately, we had a private tour just for our family. Since my son wasn't feeling well the day after we arrived on the Big Island, we were able to change the usual course and enjoyed kayaking in the nearby bay area. They were very considerate, and my parents even tried snorkeling, which seemed to make them very happy. I would love to participate again if there’s another opportunity.
両親と5歳の息子の4人で参加しました。ありがたいことに私たち家族だけでプライベートツアーになりました。
ハワイ島到着の翌日で息子の体調が思わしくなかったため、通常コースからら変更していただき、湾周辺の近場でカヤックを楽しみました。

It was an emotional moment as so many dolphins approached us, and in the end, Nankai even showed us a twist jump. I highly recommend it.
I was really tense on the boat, worried about seasickness, but the staff skillfully eased my feelings and lifted my spirits. At first, I struggled to get used to the water and ended up drinking seawater, but with the staff's appropriate advice, I got accustomed to it in the second half, my field of vision expanded, and I became more relaxed. I think anyone can enjoy this experience.
野生とは思えないほど、沢山のイルカが寄ってきてくれ、最後はひねりをいれたジャンプを南海も見せてくれました。感動のひと時でした。お勧めです。
私は金づちの上に、船酔いが心配で、ガチガチだったのですが、スタッフの方が上手に気持ちをほぐし、テンションをあげてくれました。初めは水の中に慣れず、海水を飲んだりと苦戦しましたがスタッフの適切なアドバイスで後半は慣れ、視野も広がり、余裕もでてきました。誰でも楽しめると思います。

A vast ranch where I went for my first horseback riding experience. I received guidance from two friendly and wonderful women, and then it was time to challenge myself. I was surprised that I had to ride the horse on my own right away, but the horses were quite accustomed to it. When we picked up the pace a bit, I got scared and asked to walk slowly instead. However, going up and down the mountain slopes and through the muddy areas kept my heart racing the whole time. My husband, who doesn't speak English, seemed to have a hard time expressing his thoughts, but aside from that, it was truly a refreshing and wonderful experience. We participated in the one-and-a-half-hour plan, and later I felt muscle soreness in my inner thighs, so I was glad we didn't choose the three-hour option. If I visit the Big Island again, I would love to participate once more.
初めての乗馬に訪れたとてつもなく広い牧場。フレンドリーで素敵な女性二人に指導を受け、さあ挑戦。いきなり自分で馬を駆りついて行かなくてはならないのにはビックリしたけど馬達は慣れたものでした。途中で少し速足になった時は恐くなり、ゆっくり歩くだけにしてもらいました。でも山の斜面を登ったり下ったり、ぬかるみの中に入っていったりでずっとドキドキ。英語の喋れない主人は思ったことを伝えられず大変だったようですがそれ以外は本当に爽快で素晴らしい体験になりました。私たちは1時間半のプランに参加したのですが、後で内股に筋肉痛があり3時間にしなくて良かったと思いました。次回ハワイ島に訪れることがあればまた参加したいと思います。

My first time on the Big Island of Hawaii! My wife and I participated in an ocean rafting tour that included snorkeling and exploring lava cliffs. Since we departed at 10 AM, we took our time in the morning to stroll around the hotel area before driving to the harbor where we gathered with other participants. We set off a bit earlier than scheduled!
During the ocean rafting to the snorkeling point, we stopped at various spots along the way where they provided explanations, allowing us to enjoy taking photos and sightseeing. We also saw a lot of wild dolphins! I didn't expect to see so many.
At the snorkeling point, the water clarity was outstanding, and since it was in a bay, there were no waves, making it the perfect snorkeling spot. There were plenty of fish, it felt like an aquarium. The sandwiches for lunch were delicious too.
However, the sun in Kona is incredibly strong. Even though I applied sunscreen, I got a severe sunburn on my back because I was so focused on snorkeling! Be careful!
The return rafting offered a breathtaking view of the lava cliffs that can only be seen from the sea. Everyone on the tour was from overseas and they were all really nice people. Thank you!
初めてのハワイ島。シュノーケルと溶岩の岸壁でオーシャンラフティングも楽しめるということで妻と二人で参加させて頂きました!
10時出発なので、朝ゆっくりホテル周辺を散歩などして、レンタカーで集合場所のハーバーへ。他の参加者の方もみんな到着して少し早めに出発!
シュノーケルポイントまでのオーシャンラフティングでは、途中様々なスポットに止まってくれて説明してくれるので、写真撮影や観光を楽しめました。
そして野生のイルカもたくさん!こんなに居るとは思いませんでした。
シュノーケルポイントでは水の透明度が抜群で、湾の中にあるため波もなく、最高のシュノーケルスポットでした。魚の数も多く、まるで水族館。ランチのサンドイッチもおいしかったです。
ただコナの日射しがものすごく強くて。。日焼け止めしていたのですが、シュノーケルに夢中で背中がひどく日焼けしました!要注意です!
帰りのラフティングも、溶岩の岸壁で海からしか見られない貴重な景色で迫力満点。
一緒のツアーの方は皆海外の方でいい人ばかりでした。

I've taken three different groups on three different manta swims and this one was the best! I really liked how we were tethered to the boat so that inexperienced snorkelers and people that got cold could easily climb back on the boat while the rest of us could continue to enjoy the mantas. Because we were on the moonlight swim, we were in the harbor by ourselves by the end. All the mantas (four total that night) were ours to observe. It was awesome.
This is really a must-do for your Big Island trip.
Thank you for your wonderful review on our Moonlit Manta Snorkel. We are so pleased your tour was such a success. It is our goal to have every person rate us as the best snorkel tours in Kona! You just described the advantages of doing the Moonlit tour. I always recommend this tour to people with children. Because there are only two to three boats at the later tour time, this allows us to tether the light board directly to the boat instead of swimming the light board in the middle of twenty something boats and their light boards to give you the best show. Some parents might have to switch out with their partner if they bring their young children (toddler's and babies are always welcome). There might also be children and/or adults that have some apprehension and would prefer to have the boat near by as a comfort. We hope you will remember us on your next trip to Kona. Mahalo!

Thank you very much for your assistance this time!
I participated with a friend!
Since we rented a car, we met at the location. There were several tours and meeting points, and although we searched a bit, the roads were wide, so we had no problems and quickly found the place by asking the locals!
We gathered at 10 AM, so after enjoying a leisurely breakfast, we were able to act without any rush, which made for a wonderful time! I was thrilled to unexpectedly spot a sea turtle at the pier!
We boarded a boat with about 10 people and moved to Captain Cook's location, but we spotted a whale along the way, and we stopped several times for everyone to take photos! I appreciated that consideration!
Once we arrived at the snorkeling point, we snorkeled for about an hour and a half, and enjoyed sandwiches for lunch on the boat! The sea was beautiful, with so many gorgeous fish! It felt just like being in an aquarium! Occasionally, we heard a squeaking sound... it was dolphins!
The foreign participants in the same tour were all very nice, and we had fun conversations. It seems there are many tourists from various places!
An hour and a half went by in no time! On the way back, we stopped at a breathtaking canyon point, allowing us to enjoy not just snorkeling but other delights as well!
Just be aware that you will get sunburned, so sunscreen is definitely necessary... I got incredibly burned, which turned into quite a situation, but it's also a great memory!
When we returned to the port, we discovered another sea turtle!! Seeing it twice was amazing!!
We arrived at the port at 3 PM, so we were able to shop and sightsee in the northern part of the Big Island. Honokohau Marina is in a great location, which was another charm!
I had an experience that is hard to come by in Japan! I was healed by seeing various fish in the beautiful sea, and since we only spent a little over an hour in the water, I didn't feel tired at all. It was just the right amount of time, and if I have the chance to go to the Big Island again, I would definitely like to participate again!
Thank you very much!
この度はお世話になりありがとうございました!
友達と2人での参加させて頂きました!
レンタカーを借りてましたので、現地集合でしていくつかツアーや集合場所があり、探しましたが、道が広いので問題なく、現地の方々に聞いてすぐに見つかりました!
10時集合ということで、朝食をゆったりととったあと、バタバタすることなく行動することができましたとても良い時間でした!!
桟橋で偶然ウミガメを見つけて感動しました♡
ボートで約10名乗船しキャプテンクックの場所まで移動しましたが、途中鯨を発見し、何度か止まって頂き皆さんで撮影しました!
そのお気遣いも嬉しかったです!
シュノーケルポイント到着してからは約1時間半、シュノーケルしたり、ランチのサンドウィッチ頂きボートで食べたり!海が綺麗で、綺麗な魚がたーくさん!それはまるで水族館にいる様でした!
時折聞こえるキーキーという音が、、イルカでした♡
同じツアーに参加されていた外国人の方々も良い方ばかりで、楽しく会話したりいろんな場所から来られていて観光客が多いようですね!
1時間半は本当にあっという間!でしたが、帰り道でも絶景の渓谷ポイントに止まって下さりと、シュノーケルだけでなく、他の楽しみを味わせて頂きました!
ただ日焼けをしますので、必ず日焼け止めは必要です…とんでもなく焼けてしまい大変なことになってますが、これもまた良い思い出です!!
港に戻り、またまたウミガメを発見!!
2度も見れて最高でした!!
港には3時着でしたので、ハワイ島の北のほうへ買い物したり観光でき、ホノコハウマリーナは良い場所にありましたのでそれもまた魅力でした!!
なかなか日本では味わえない経験をさせて頂きました!綺麗な海でいろんな、魚達を見ることで癒されましたし、1時間少し海に浸かるだけですので全く疲れませんし、丁度良い時間で、またハワイ島に行く時があれば是非参加させて頂きたくおもいます!

I took a taxi to the location, and as we approached the port, I looked around for the blue roof as a landmark, which made it easy to spot the various tour companies lined up. Of course, I arrived without being late for the meeting time. The check-in was all in English, but there was also a Japanese instruction manual, and after signing in, I finally boarded the boat. Since it was my first time rafting, I felt like I might be overwhelmed by the speed of the boat and the wind, but it was refreshing, and the sea and sky were truly blue and amazing! Along the way, we encountered some dolphins and whales, and we arrived at the destination, Kealakekua Bay, where snorkeling time began. This was my first time using a waterproof case for my smartphone, and I took pictures underwater myself... it was so much fun! I was completely absorbed in it!
The pineapple and oranges that the captain prepared were incredibly delicious. By the time lunch was over, we spotted some dolphins swimming a little further out in the bay, so we slowly approached them by boat, and about ten dolphins were playing around us. It was my first time seeing wild dolphins up close like this. After enjoying snorkeling time once more, we headed back along the coastline, where we could see impressive views that you can't appreciate from land. The only downside was that I couldn't understand English. It would have been even better if I could have understood the captain's explanations... That said, I still had a great time despite not understanding everything. Also, when taking a taxi, the driver made a reservation for the return trip, but I think it's good to allow a little extra time when deciding on the pickup time. We ended up making the driver wait for 30 minutes, so we had to give an extra tip.
現地までは、タクシーで行き車が港に近づくと青い屋根が目印ということだったので見つけるべくキョロキョロしましたが、いろいろなツアーの会社が並んでいてすぐにわかりました。もちろん集合時間に遅れることなく到着しました。受付ではすべて英語でしたが、日本語の説明書もありサインをしていよいよボートに乗り込みました。ラフティングが初めてだったのでボートの速さと風に負けそうでしたが、何より爽快だし海も空も本当に青く最高でした!途中アヒや鯨の仲間に遭遇しながら目的のケアラケクア湾に到着しシュノーケルタイムが始まりました。今回スマホの水中ケース初使用で海の中を自分でとりました…楽しいです!夢中になります!
キャプテンがカットして用意してくれたパインとオレンジが、めちゃくちゃおいしかった。ランチタイムが終わる頃、湾の中の少し遠くでイルカが泳いでいたのでボートで少しずつ近づいて行くと周りを10頭くらいのイルカたちが遊んでいます。こんなに近くで野生にイルカを見たのも初めてです。もう1度シュノーケルタイムを楽しんだ後、帰りは海岸線に沿ってボートは進みますが、陸の上からでは眺めることの出来ない迫力ある景色をみることができました。残念なことは私が英語を理解できないこと。もしキャプテンの説明が理解できていたらもっと良かったでしょう…とはいえわからないなりにも十分楽しめました。それとタクシーで行く場合、運転手が帰りの迎えの予約もしてくれましたが、少し時間を余裕をみて時間を決めると良いと思います。私達は30分待たせたのでチップを余計に払うことになりました。
