All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

I experienced underwater scooters, snorkeling, and paddle boating, and the sea was beautiful with stunning views. It was a valuable experience to see many fish and sea turtles up close. The staff were also friendly and approachable, and there were staff members who spoke Japanese, which made it easy to enjoy the activities. However, since I participated in January, the wind was a bit chilly, so I think it's a good idea to bring a light jacket or a thick towel depending on the season.

水中スクーター＆シュノーケリング＆パドルボートを体験しましたが、海が綺麗で景色もとても良かったです。たくさんの魚やウミガメを間近で見ることができて貴重な体験となりました。またスタッフの方も親切できさくな方が多く日本語の通じるスタッフもいるので安心して楽しむことができました。
ただ私が参加したのが1月ということもあり、風が少し冷たく肌寒く感じたので時期によっては軽く上に羽織るものや厚手のタオルを持って行くといいと思います。

I had a wonderful experience! The waters in Hawaii aren't very deep, so I was able to enjoy activities without fear. Compared to Japan, the sea was quite blue and beautiful.

What I liked the most was stand-up paddleboarding. I rode on a board floating in the sea, but it was unstable, making it very difficult just to stand. However, the sense of achievement when I managed to stand was incredible, and it felt refreshing. When I participated, the wind was blowing strongly, making it hard to go in the direction I wanted, but it was fun to paddle while riding the waves. The trainers were kind and taught us well, so even beginners can enjoy it!

During this tour, you can chat and laugh with other participants while having fun. Riding a small boat to cut through the wind until we reached the open sea felt great. It's an activity that can be challenging without being overwhelming, tailored to individuals, so I highly recommend it!

素晴らしい経験ができました！ハワイの海はそんなに深くないので、怖くなくアクティビティできました。また、日本と比較してみるとかなり青い海で綺麗でした。
私が気にいったのは、スタンドアップパドルボードです。海に浮かばせたボードに乗るのですが、不安定なので立つだけでも非常に難しかったです。その分立てたときの達成感が凄く、爽快な気分になりました。私が参加したときは風が強く吹いていたので思う方向に進むのは難しかったですが、波に乗ってパドルを漕げたら楽しいです。トレーナーの方々が優しく教えてくれるので、下手な人でも楽しめます！
このツアーでは、他の参加者ともお話ししながら笑いながら遊べます。広い海に出るまで小型のボートに乗って風を切るのも気持ちいいです。個人に合わせて無理なくチャレンジできるアクティビティなのでおすすめです！

My husband and I had our first experience with SUP. The instructor, Mieko, provided thorough explanations, allowing us to feel at ease during the experience. Following her advice to jump sideways instead of forward when falling for safety, my husband jumped sideways quite well.

Although the weather had been bad until the day before, we were fortunate that the conditions were great on the day itself. While paddling and enjoying the natural scenery of the clear sea and distant mountains, we quickly arrived at the island offshore.

Thank you for taking photos as well. They became a wonderful keepsake. I would love to try it again if the opportunity arises!

主人と二人でSUP初体験でした。
インストラクターのミエコさんに丁寧に説明していただき、安心して体験できました。
落ちる時は安全のために前でなくて横にジャンプして！のアドバイス通り、主人はしっかり横ジャンプしてました。

前日まで天候が悪かったそうですが、当日は幸運にもコンディションは良好で、透明な海や遠くに見える山々など自然の景色を眺めながらパドルを動かしていたらあっという間に沖の島に到着しました。

写真も撮っていただいてありがとうございます。とても良い記念になりました。機会があればまたやってみたいです♪

I had always wanted to surf, but both my friend and I were a bit anxious, so we hesitated to make a reservation. To sum up our experience, we both had a great time. The instructors were very kind and funny, and I’m glad we took the surfing lessons here! Once we grasped the important points, we were able to stand on the board, which was satisfying. The instructors repeatedly emphasized the key points. If you're unsure, you should definitely take lessons here!

ずっとサーフィンがしたかったけれど、私も友達も不安で、予約を少し渋りました。感想から言うと、2人とも凄く楽しめました。インストラクターの方々がとても優しくて面白くて、ここのサーフィンレッスンを受けれて良かったです！
大事なことを抑えるとボードに立てる事ができ、満足しました。大事なことは何度もインストラクターの方が言ってくれました。
迷ったらここのレッスンを受けるべきです！

- The boat will sway.
- It's better to wear a swimsuit.
- It's a good idea to bring drinks like water.
- Sunscreen is also essential.

The staff members were nice, and I was able to enjoy myself without any worries!

・船は揺れます
・水着のほうが良い
・水など飲み物は持っていたほうが良い
・日焼け止めも必須

◎スタッフの方々も良い人たちで、心置きなく楽しめました！

Such a great experience- easy to book and pay for. Fantastic time and have pics to remember the event!!!
Loved it - would do it again

Dan was absolutely amazing! Me and my husband does not know swimming. So he helped the whole time practicing and then through the actual snorkeling. We are very happy and recommend this tour for all beginners and non swimmers

Fabulous destination. Everyone enjoyed the snorkelling. Weather was a bit unpredictable. We got to see Buster the seal.

I learned how to surf in English and was able to catch waves right away, which was fun. They also took photos of me.
I recommend wearing a long-sleeve rash guard. I wore a short-sleeve one and ended up getting sunburned.

I signed a waiver at the office and learned about paddling and how to stand up.

Since we were supposed to travel to the lesson location individually, I was thinking of calling a taxi, but a family from LA who was participating in the lesson with me offered me a ride. They seemed to like Japan, and the dad was wearing a T-shirt with Japanese writing on it. I was lucky!

サーフィンを英語で教えてもらいながらしました。すぐ波に乗れて楽しかったです。写真も撮ってくれました。
ラッシュガードは長袖をおすすめします。私は半袖だったので、日焼けしてしまいました。

オフィスで誓約書にサインしたり、パドリングや立ち方を教わりました。

レッスン場所までの移動は各々でということだったので、TAXiを呼ぼうと思ったら、一緒にレッスンに参加していたLAのアメリカ人の御家族が乗せてくれました。日本のことが好きみたいで、パパさんは日本語が書かれていたTシャツを来てました。運が良かった！

The children went surfing for the first time, and it seems they had a lot of fun. By the second half of the session, they were able to ride the waves in a way that looked like they were surfing quite well. Their satisfaction level was high. They might participate again on their next trip to Hawaii.

こどもたちが初めてのサーフィンでしたが、とても楽しかったそうです。後半の時間にもなると、それなりにサーフィンしているような体制で波乗りできていました。満足度は高かったようです。また次のハワイでも、参加するかもしれません。

Disappointed to not see any whales, dolphins, pretty marine fish. Captain should skip the corny puns. Beautiful boat ride but not as advertised.

This was my second time participating. The free time was long, and the explanations on-site were easy to understand, which was reassuring. Having lockers and changing rooms was really helpful. I was happy to eat the pizza again, which was very delicious last time. I had planned to ride my bike to the city, but I was caught in heavy rain, so I gave up on renting a bike this time. However, I would like to try biking next time!

２回目の参加でした。自由時間が長く、現地での説明が分かりやすいので安心です。ロッカーや更衣室があるのは本当に助かります。
前回とても美味しかったピザを、また食べられて嬉しかったです。自転車で街まで行く予定でしたが、大雨に降られてしまったので今回は自転車レンタルを断念しましたが、次の機会には自転車で行動してみたいです！

It was my first experience surfing, and with the support of the instructors and the lectures, I was able to ride easily! We watched a video at the shop before heading to Waikiki Beach, where we practiced using the boards on the shore, checking safety and confirming the steps. It was a very enjoyable experience!

今回サーフィン初体験だったのですが、レクチャーやインストラクターの方々のサポートもあり簡単に乗ることができました！
レクチャーはショップでビデオを見てからワイキキのビーチに行って浜辺でボードを使って安全確認やステップの確認などをしました。
とても楽しい経験となりました！

It started at 10:00 with a private reservation. At 9:00, there were about 10 people. All the employees and drivers were fun people. It's worth going. Tips are needed.

10:00start 貸切だった
9:00は10人ぐらい
従業員運転手みんな楽しい人ばかり
行く価値あり
チップ必要

We had a great time snot at Hanauma Bay. We saw a lot of beautiful marine life and enjoyed our time there. Our tour guide was very nice and informative.

My first time in Hawaii, my first time SUPing. The weather was bad and there was wind, so it turned into a river experience. It was cloudy, but it didn't rain, so that was good enough. The explanations were easy to understand, and I got to take a lot of photos, creating great memories. I also rented a bike, and although it was tough to get to my target pancake place and Lanikai Beach, I achieved my goal! If I could wish for anything, I would have liked one more hour of free time. Next time, I want to try it on a sunny summer day. Thank you, Emiko!

初めてのハワイ、初めてのS U P。天気が悪くて風もあり川での体験になりました。曇ってたけど雨は降らなかったからそれだけでも良かったです。説明も分かりやすく写真も沢山撮って頂いていい思い出が出来ました。自転車も借りてお目当てのパンケーキ、ラニカイビーチと移動が大変でしたが目的達成！欲を言えばあと1時間自由行動が欲しかったです。今度は夏の天気のいい日にトライしたいです。エミコさんありがとうございました。

On the day of parasailing, I was worried about whether it would take place due to the strong winds, but it was fine. However, because of the wind, the boat and parasailing were quite shaky, so I wish I had taken some motion sickness medication. But parasailing was really fun. I chose 120 meters, but I wonder if 150 meters would have been better. The ride close to the water was quite thrilling. It turned out to be a very enjoyable trip as we took turns taking pictures with each other's cameras.

パラセーリング当日、風がかなり強かったので催行されるか心配でしたが大丈夫でした。
ただその風の影響で、船やパラセーリングがかなり揺れたので酔い止め薬を飲んでおけば良かったです。
でもパラセーリングは本当に楽しかったです。120ｍにしたのですが150ｍでもよかったかなぁと。
海面スレスレの運転はかなりスリリングでした。
一緒に船に乗った人たちとそれぞれカメラで撮ってもらったり、とても楽しい旅になりました。

I participated with my 6-year-old daughter. At first, I was worried she might be scared, but the guide was friendly and fun, so we ended up laughing the whole time. The view from the sky was breathtaking, and I felt no anxiety, just an incredible sense of freedom. The guide explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, even for those who aren't good at English, so I highly recommend it! I definitely want to do this again when I go to Hawaii!

6歳の娘連れで参加しました。
最初は怖がるのでは…と不安でしたが、ガイドさんが気さくで楽しい方だったので、笑ってる間に飛んでました（笑）
空から見る景色は絶景で不安もなく、ただ開放感に溢れる素晴らしいものでした。
英語が得意じゃなくてもちゃんと伝わるように説明してくれますし、絶対おすすめです！
まだハワイに行ったらやりたいと思います！

We participated in an event with my husband during the New Year. We were picked up near the hotel and set sail from a marina about 30 minutes away by car. An interpreter was also on board the boat. We anchored in just the right spot and took turns diving in. Wearing yellow helmet-like capsules, we rode sea scooters into the underwater world, which was like a dream. By chance, we encountered a sea turtle, and it was truly moving! There was also a photographer who captured our moments. By the time we returned to the boat, a double rainbow appeared, which was even more touching! I want to go again!

お正月に、主人と二人で参加させて頂きました。
ホテルの近くでピックアップして貰い
車で30分程のマリーナから船に乗り出航しました。
船には通訳さんも乗船
丁度良い場所に停泊し、順番に潜り込ました

夢のような世界が広がっていました。
偶然にも海亀にも遭遇できて、感動しました！
カメラマンさんもおり、その姿を撮影して頂けます。
船に戻る頃には、ダブルレインボーが出ていて、更に感動しました！
また行きたい！

The day I participated was one of the few days of the year with strong winds and high waves. I was told that I could switch to sea kayaking, so I requested it without hesitation. Even so, participants with coaches were struggling in the ocean, so choosing river kayaking was definitely the right decision! Along the river, there were luxury villas lined up, allowing me to glimpse the lifestyle in Kailua.

参加した日は年に数日しかない強風高波の日でした。シーカヤックに変更可能と言われたので迷わずお願いしました。それでも海での運行はコーチ付きの参加者も苦戦していたのでリバーカヤックを選択したのが大正解！川沿いには高級別荘が建ち並んでおりカイルアの暮らしを垣間見ることができました。

We had a wonderful time with this scuba scooter adventure. The crew was awesome and really looked after us. I loved every minute of it!

Very exciting but wish the waves had been bigger; guide was very helpful; narrow walkway and crowded making it awkward at foot-washing area.

I hoped for 150 meters, but all five groups that boarded had the same itinerary and the same height. I was a bit disappointed as I was expecting something higher.

150ｍを希望しましたが、乗り込んだ5組すべてが同じ行程で同じ高さでした。
もっと高いところを期待していただけに少しがっかりしました。

It was my first challenge, but I felt at ease because the instructor was always there with me. My mother came along to observe, and that was not a problem at all. I made some wonderful memories!

初挑戦でしたが、常にインストラクターの方が付き添ってくださっていたので安心でした。
母が付き添いで見学に来ていましたが、それも問題ありませんでした。
とても良い思い出ができました！

My first parasailing experience was incredibly fun! I felt a thrill when we rose to 150 meters, and the view of Waikiki was breathtaking. It became a wonderful memory! I think many people were feeling seasick. There were five other groups on the same boat with us, and since each group took turns flying, the waiting time was a bit tough.

初めてのパラセーリング最高に楽しかったです！150mの高さまで上がった時はドキドキしましたがワイキキを一望できます。いい思い出になりました！船酔いはしている方が多かったと思います。私たちの他に5組が一緒のボードに乗り1組ずつ飛んでいくため待ち時間は少しキツかったです。

The weather was clear and perfect, which lifted my spirits. About 15 boats participated, and I was the only one rowing solo. I managed to keep up on the way there, but got a bit tired on the return trip. Towards the end, I was moving slowly, and the instructor kindly pulled me along with a rope, for which I am grateful.

There were quite a few waves on the sea this time, but I was thrilled to enter a cave that I couldn't visit during the tour with Ariyoshi due to rough seas. On the way back, we went snorkeling in a cove, which was my first time in such deep water, and it was also an amazing experience.

Since we split into two groups, the first group probably had to wait quite a bit in this cove. Those who love snorkeling got to enjoy it for a longer time. During the waiting period, we were able to have some juice and snacks.

There were 4 to 5 instructors present, so those who had difficulties could safely return, and they guided us through the shallow areas, making it easy for older participants to join. The round trip was about 3 miles, taking just under an hour one way. It was a comfortable journey thanks to the nice weather.

快晴のいい天気で気分も最高でした。
15艇ほどが参加しましたが1人漕ぎは当方1艘で行きは付いて行きましたが、帰りは少し疲れたので最後にゆっくり進んでいるとインストラクターがロープで連結して引っ張ってくれました、感謝です。
今回も結構海面はうねりが有りましたが、有吉のツアーで海が荒れて行けなかった洞窟にも入れて感激しました。
帰りに入江でシュノーケリング、あんなに水深の有るところでは始めてでこれも感激。
2班に別れての行動だったので一班目はこの入江で結構またされたかな？シュノーケリングが好きな人は長く出来たけど。
待ち時間にはジュースやお菓子をいただけました。
インストラクターが4～5人付いていたので沈した人も安全に復帰でき、浅瀬も誘導してくれて、年配にも安心して参加できます。
往復3マイル、片道1時間弱かな？
いい天気だったので快適な旅でした。

I participated in a morning tour.
My spouse and I signed up, but it was a private tour!
Canoeing was more exhausting than I expected!
Additionally, the waves were a bit high, and I started to feel a little seasick...
At the snorkeling point, I was able to see a lot of fish.
On the way back, I was completely worn out from canoeing.
After that, we went to a popular café and made good use of our time.
I'm glad I participated!

早朝のツアーに参加しました。
夫婦で申し込みましたが、貸し切りでした！
カヌーは思っていた以上にしんどい！
さらに若干波も高く、少し船酔い気味に…。
シュノーケリングポイントではたくさんお魚が見れました。
帰りのカヌーはバテバテでした。
そのあとは、人気のカフェに行ったり、時間を有効活用できました。
参加してよかったです！

Prompt service to and from the pick up site! Driver even called to confirm I was present. Wow! Great host and service. Thank you for your time and insight in the journey!

I was picked up from the hotel where I was staying and taken to the port. We ran the boat to the point, and it seemed like we circled around the area a bit to check the wind conditions. I participated with my husband, but to be honest, I'm not good with heights. However, I decided to book the 150-meter jump thinking that since it's over water... In the end, I didn't feel much fear; rather, I was overwhelmed and moved by the scenery. There were clouds over the mountains, but if the weather is really nice, it would be a spectacular view! It was an activity that made me want to try it again.

滞在するホテルまで迎えに来て頂き、港まで送迎してもらいました。
ポイントまで船を走らせ、風の状況を確かめる為か少しポイント周辺をグルグルしていたように思います。
夫と参加しましたが、正直私は高いところが苦手で。でも水上の上なら…と思いきって150メートルを予約したのですが。結果、さほど恐怖感はなく、むしろ景色に圧倒され感動しました。山に雲がかかっていたけどホントに天気が良ければ絶景です！
もう一度やってみたいと思えるアクティビティでした。

My husband is turning 60 this year, and I will be next year. We both have hidden obesity, and I was worried about how it would go, but we managed to do 150 meters without any issues! It felt great!

Among all the young people, I was the most high-spirited since I took motion sickness medicine! It seems like I could get dizzy even while going up in the sky.

For some reason, my husband and I felt like we were on a romantic date while flying, and we, who don’t get motion sickness, were having a blast. On the way back, the speed of the boat was so exhilarating that we couldn't help but scream with joy.

I recommend it for those who have time in the morning.

還暦を迎える夫と来年還暦の私。お互い隠れ肥満。どうなるのか心配してたけど、問題なく１５０メートル出来たーーー。気持ちいいーーー。
若い人が多い中、酔い止め薬を飲んでた私は一番ハイテンション!
空に上がっている時にでも酔うみたい。
酔わない私らは、飛びながら何故か夫とラブなデートしてる気分。
帰りのボートのスピードも凄く年がいもなく、申しわけないくらいキャーキャー言って楽しかったです。
朝、時間がある方おすすめです。
