I participated to create a final memory of my trip. I was very satisfied to be able to enjoy a beautiful starry sky and fireworks while drinking a Mai Tai. It's best to wear clothes that you don't mind getting wet, as you will get wet up to your shins when boarding. I participated in January, and the weather was great, with just the right temperature to enjoy. I would love to participate again if I have the chance.
旅行の最後の思い出にと参加しました。
マイタイを飲みながらきれいな星空と花火を見ることができとても満足できました。
乗り込みの際にひざ下ぐらいまで濡れるので濡れてもいい格好で参加したほうがいいです。
1月の参加でしたが、とてもいい天気で気温もちょうどよくて楽しめました。
機会があればまた参加したいです。

I participated with my daughter, and there were only two Japanese people. It felt great to feel the wind more than on a big ship. There was also a couple dancing energetically, making it a really fun time.

I read in the reviews that there are few Japanese people and the explanations are in English, but it was a completely problem-free relaxing time. I go to Hawaii about twice a year, so I signed up for various optional tours, but this tour is one I can't miss next time. Since it was late January, it was indeed cold due to the strong winds. A light jacket is necessary.
口コミでは日本人は少ないし説明も英語なので・・とありましたが、全く問題なしのリラックスタイムでした。ハワイは年に2回ほど行きますので色々なオプショナルツアーに申し込みましたがこちらのツアーは次回も外せないです。1月下旬だったので、風が強いこともあり確かに寒かったです。羽織るものは必要ですね。

I was considering a dinner cruise, but after referring to other people's experiences, I chose the cocktail cruise. I was a bit anxious about whether I would enjoy it, but it turned out to be a great decision. The sunset from the coast is beautiful, but watching the sunset from the cruiser while feeling the thrill of the ride was exceptionally stunning. Thanks to the cheerful and high-energy crew and the other foreign guests, the atmosphere was great, and I had a wonderful time.
ディナークルーズにしようかと思ってましたが、他の方の体験談を参照し、カクテルクルーズを選択しました。
楽しめるか少し不安でしたが、結果は大正解でした。海岸からのサンセットも綺麗ですが、クルーザーの疾走感とともに海の上から観るサンセットはまた格別に綺麗でした。陽気でハイテンションなクルーや他の外国人客のおかげて、雰囲気も良く楽しい時間を過ごせました。

The itinerary includes departing, cruising towards Diamond Head for a while, turning back, waiting in front of the Hilton, and then the fireworks start. The fireworks last about 10 minutes. The sequence is as follows: beach docking. They say that "Mai Tai" is easy to make, and they keep saying "Mai Tai, Mai Tai!" The only soft drink available is canned pineapple. By the way, we were the only Japanese people there. None of the crew spoke Japanese. It might be fun for those who understand English.
内容としては出航→ダイヤモンドヘッド方面へしばらくクルーズ→折り返し→ヒルトン前で待機→花火開始 花火は10分程度で終わり→船着きビーチの順です。飲み物は「マイタイ」が簡単に作れるらしく「マイタイ、マイタイ!」と言ってきます。ソフトドリンクは缶のパイナップルのみ。ちなみに日本人は私達だけでした。クルーも日本語は全員ダメ。英語が分かる人は楽しいかもね。

Fun filled 3 hour cruise. Great food, music, and tour. The crew were all exceptional. Within 3 minutes of leaving the dock the crew had already located 2 whales we could watch. Right before dinner, they located a manta ray as well. The crew also found another whale on the ride home. Great time and very family friendly.

Were initially concerned when we saw the cat and number of people going on the cruise however once on board there was ample room. We both had great time the cruise was smooth and fireworks excellent, the crew entertaining and efficient certainly looked after everyone on board. Would recommend it if you want to experience something a little different and have some fun. May not appeal to everyone as there was a bit of drinking but nothing offensive. Well done!

I experienced this on the same day I arrived in Hawaii.
First, the meeting point was hard to find (there are quite a few similar boats), so I walked quite a bit on Waikiki Beach. You enter the water when boarding. There is a risk of sandals without heels being swept away (a child's sandal was lost).
With unlimited drinks and loud music, I thought it might be a young crowd, but families with children were also there, and other guests were friendly and chatted with us (though it might depend on the boat). We had a great time. There were no other Japanese people besides us.
Although it's always summer in Hawaii, the night cruise was cold. I recommend bringing a jacket.
I was hesitant to use the restroom, but I couldn't hold it due to the cold and ended up using it. It's an interesting restroom that you enter by going down a ladder. It's very cramped, and I didn't know how to lock it. It wasn't too dirty, and the smell wasn't bothersome.
The fireworks viewed from the sea were exceptional. The night view was also very beautiful, but the ocean was pitch dark.
Next time, I would like to try the sunset cruise as well.
ハワイに到着したその日に体験しました。
まず、集合場所がわかりづらく(同じような船がけっこうある)ワイキキビーチをかなり歩きました。乗船する際に海に入ります。かかとのないサンダルは流される危険ありです(子供のサンダルが流されました。)
お酒飲み放題で音楽がガンガンかかっていて、若者のノリかとも思いましたが、子連れファミリーでもほかのお客さんが気さくに話しかけてくれたり(その時の船によるでしょうが)、とても楽しめました。日本人は私たち以外にはいませんでした。
常夏のハワイですが、ナイトクルーズは寒かったです。上着を持つことをお勧めします。
トイレはなるべく使用したくないな~と思っていましたが、冷えのせいか我慢できず使用しました。梯子を下りて入る面白いトイレです。とにかく狭い。鍵のかけかたがわからない。それほど汚くはなくにおいも気になりませんでした。
海から見る花火は格別でした。夜景もとてもきれいでしたが、海は真っ暗です。
次回はサンセットクルーズも乗ってみたいです。

So cool seeing it from atop the deep blue. Definitely recommend it for a fun night away from the hustle bustle of Waikiki. Great bang for you buck!!

Need to figure out a better flow through the buffet line. The people were entering the buffet area form both sides which caused confusion and not a lot of area to move around in.

The atmosphere of cruising while enjoying the breeze on the rooftop deck was fantastic. However, the air conditioning on the second floor was too strong, making it quite cold and not very comfortable for a long stay, so I recommend bringing a jacket for those participating. I think it's best not to have high expectations for the food. This time, I happened to choose the fireworks viewing plan, but there was over two hours between sunset and the fireworks, which made the waiting feel tedious and tiring. Ultimately, I think a plan without fireworks viewing would have been better. Next time, I would like to board with a plan that doesn't include fireworks viewing.
屋上デッキで風を浴びながらのクルーズの雰囲気は最高でした。
ただ、2Fフロアーはクーラーがききすぎて、寒く、とても長居できないので、参加される方は、上着持参されたほうが良いと思います。
料理はそんなに期待しないほうが良いと思います。
今回たまたま花火鑑賞プランを選びましたが、サンセットから花火までの時間が2時間以上あるので、途中時間を弄び、逆に疲れました。
結果的には、花火鑑賞がついてないプランの方が良かったと思います。
次回は、花火鑑賞付きプラン以外で乗船したいと思います。

So I decided to propose on this particular cruise, and I couldn't have picked a more romantic, thoughtful, and special cruise to do it. I was so incredibly nervous, but the customer service rep was extremely communicative and responsive for my specific request. John, the captain of the vessel, was so knowledgable in the marine life, that my fiance and I asked if he had majored in Marine Biology in college. He had a lot of passion for the marine life and he spent a lot of time speaking with us. Also, the wait staff was beyond courteous, they took pictures of my engagement, and they made us feel so special with their champagne toast.
I also set-up an original song to sing for my fiance, and the musician onboard actually learned my song before-hand, and played it perfectly as I sang it in front of 40 strangers! His tunes really bring that cool, Hawaiian vibe, and the MC was great with her meticulous tour and crowd work. I couldn't have asked for a better sunset, a perfect location, and the greatest staff that I have probably ever encountered. That's saying a lot as I had been a musician on several international five-star cruise lines in the past. I would HIGHLY recommend this cruise to anyone looking for a special event with incredible food.

I used it on the last day in Hawaii. It was much more comfortable than I expected, with very little rocking. However, since there are no walls on the yacht, it can get cold when the wind blows, so I recommend preparing warm clothing.

I searched for a short cruise without meals and participated. The weather was nice that day, so it wasn't too cold in the evening, and the scenery was amazing! I could see Diamond Head, Waikiki Beach from the sea, and even a whale spouting in the distance! It was the perfect cruise that I could join between daytime activities and dinner time, yet it felt relaxed and enjoyable! This time, it was just the two of us, but next time I want to encourage our kids to join as well!
短時間で乗れる食事の付かないクルーズをさがして参加しました。
当日お天気が良かったため、夕方からもそれほど寒くなく、景色が最高でした!
ダイヤモンドヘッド、海からのワイキキビーチ、遠くにクジラが潮を吹いているのも見えました!
昼間の遊びの時間と晩御飯の時間の間に参加出来る、しかし、ゆったりした最高のクルーズでした!
今回は夫婦2人の参加でしたが、次回は子供たちにも参加を勧めたいと思っています!

We enjoyed the cruise. The staff was very attentive to us. Dinner was first. Unfortunately the dinner lasted through the sunset and we were seated on the opposite side of the boat. So didn't really see the sunset. We did the crab legs dinner. It was nice. Make sure you get seconds when they offer. They come around a 1 time. The entertainment was fun. The dancers performed in the middle of the deck. That is why dinner is quick. The Honolulu lights at night are a pretty sight. The night was breezy so bring a sweater to through on in case.
