All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

My husband and I really enjoyed this tour. We really liked how quickly and well things were explained and how soon we got in the water. Group was a good size and the guide was awesome!!!!

It was my first experience with parasailing, and I was very satisfied with the kind and attentive service from the local staff. The view from 150 meters high was amazing.

パラセイリングはじめての体験でしたが
現地のスタッフの親切丁寧な対応で
大変満足です。高さ150メートルからの
眺めは最高でした。

Three years ago, my four-year-old grandchild couldn't participate, so only my seven-year-old grandchild had the experience. This time, both grandchildren were able to join. The younger one was scared at first when going up, but seemed to calm down as they started looking further away, and they were very happy.

三年前は四歳だった孫は参加出来ず、上の七歳の孫だけしか経験出来なかったか、今回は二人の孫が揃って参加出来ました。下の子は上に上がった最初の内は怖がっていたが、遠くを見るようになって落ち着いたようで、とても喜んでいた。

After completing the check-in and waiting under the designated beach umbrella, I suddenly noticed that the instructor had taken a seat behind me. Are you a ninja??? The instructor was Aiza, and of course, Japanese was okay.

We started with a 10-minute land lesson by the beach, and then it was time to hit the sea. Standing up was difficult, and just when I thought I finally managed to stand, I fell into the water. So salty!!

Unfortunately, there was no photographer at that moment, so this moment wasn’t captured.

After the photographer arrived, I took on the challenge again. I somehow managed to stand for 16 seconds (photo evidence). Amazing!! The photographer didn’t miss the chance to snap the shot. Truly a pro.

Next was stand-up paddleboarding. I realized again how stiff my body is. I wanted to ride the waves, but I couldn’t quite manage it. A few times, I felt like I was riding a little bit. It felt great being pushed forward by the waves. I guess surfers must love that feeling.

Before I knew it, an hour and a half had passed, and it was time to wrap up. It had been a while since I was at the sea, and stand-up paddleboarding was more challenging than I expected. I thought it would be even more fun once I could stand properly.

受付を済ませ指定されたビーチパラソルの下で待っていると、
いつの間にか、後ろの席にインストラクターが座っていました、あなたは忍者か？？？
インストラクターはアイザさんでした。勿論日本語ＯＫです。
ビーチサイドで10分の陸上レッスン、その後、いざ海へ。
立つのも難しい、やっと立ったと思ったら、海中へ、ドボン。しょっぱ～い！！
残念ながら、カメラマンが居なかったので、これは記録に残りませんでした。

カメラマン到着後、二度目の挑戦。なんとか16秒（写真判定）立てたぞ～い。
すごいぞ！！　 カメラマンも逃さずシャッターを切ってくれました。さすがプロ。

後はスタンドダウンパドルです。改めて身体の硬さに気付きました。
波に乗ろうと思いながら中々乗れません。数回、ちょとだけ乗れた気分に。
ググットと波に後から押されて進んでいく感じが良いです。
きっとサーファーはああ言う感じが好きなんだろうな。

あっという間に１時間半が過ぎ、終了です。
久しぶりの海で、思ったより難しいスタンドアップパドル、
しっかり立てる様になったらもっと楽しいんだろうな、何て思いました。

The H20 Water Sports in Honolulu offers a fantastic jet-skiing experience. Featuring the lovely turquoise waters of Maunalua Bay, purchasers will be given half hour of a quality time racing acrossing the ocean. A pick up service to an ideal location is what makes this experience so great. The water there is relatively calm and warm, yet strong enough to lift the front of the jet ski, providing a thrilling sensation that customers cherish. Safety is also a top priority here. Even if you jet ski capsizes, you will be fine since you have your life jacket on. All in all, I would highly recommend tourists consider this option, as it is an exhilarating experience one surely should not pass on. If jet skiing is not your thing, H20 Water Sports also offer parasailing, which I plan on trying on my next trip.

We participated as a family. It seems that the waves were rough on the day we joined, so while others were using the underwater scooters, we had to wait on the boat or could go snorkeling, but many people ended up feeling seasick. I thought the underwater scooter was great because it had some clever features like bait attached to it. The staff were friendly, and they spoke Japanese, which was reassuring. However, I was disappointed that after the tour, even though I was purchasing the photo data, the driver rushed us because the car was already waiting, and I couldn't hear the explanations.

家族で参加しました。私たちが参加した日は波が荒かったようで他の方が水中スクーターをやってる時は船上で待つかシュノーケルができたのですが船酔いする方が続出でした。水中スクーターは餌がスクーターについてる等工夫があってよかったと思います。スタッフの方も気さくですし日本語も通じるので安心です。ツアーが終わって写真のデータを購入してるのに送迎の方がもう車が待ってるからと急かされ説明が聞けなかったのが残念だなと思います。

Natalie and Zooey were awesome! We had an amazing day. They took pictures and shared it with us.

The only downside is that the snorkeling was not in clearer waters.

We were a bit anxious about what our first surfing experience would be like since we don't usually exercise and had no prior knowledge of surfing, but thanks to our instructor, the photographer, and the waves in Waikiki, it turned into a fun and wonderful memory.

Our instructor was a cheerful and polite person who spoke Japanese. For the first 10 minutes, we learned on the beach about safety precautions, where to position ourselves on the board, how to paddle, how to stand, and where to look. The following 50 minutes were spent surfing in the ocean. Once we made it out to the waves on our own, we adjusted our position based on the instructor's guidance, who chose the waves for us. I was able to stand on the board and ride about five waves, and within less than an hour, I could pose for the camera with an "Aloha" sign and hold hands with my wife.

Experiencing the sensation of riding the waves for the first time and feeling the power of nature was incredibly moving, especially when we reached the shore! Paddling back out was a bit tough for us since we don't usually exercise, but my wife had the instructor pulling her out, so that was not a problem at all (laughs).

普段運動をしておらず、サーフィンの予備知識もない私達にとってどの様な時間を過ごすことになるものかなと不安もありつつ初サーフィンに申込みましたが、先生とカメラマン、ワイキキの波のおかげで楽しくて素敵な思い出になりました。

先生は日本語も話せる丁寧で陽気な方。
最初の10分は浜で、注意事項やボードの乗る位置、こぎ方、立ち方、視線をどこに向けるか等を教えてもらいました。その後の50分は海で波乗りです。
自力で沖にでたら先生の指示で向きを整え、先生が波を選び、先生の指示でこいで波に乗ります。合計で5回ぐらい波に乗ったボードに立つことができ、カメラマンに向かってアロハポーズや妻と手をつなぐことも1時間足らずでできるようになりました。

波に乗るという感覚を初体験し、自然の力を感じることができ、岸まで到達してしまったときはとても感激しました！
沖に戻るまでのパドリングは、普段運動をしていない私達には少ししんどかったのですが、妻の方は先生が沖までひっぱってくれてましたので、その点も問題なしですね（笑）

I participated alone, but I had a great time! The waves were calm, making it perfect for beginners. I thought I wouldn't be able to take any photos since I was by myself, but I was so touched to receive the photo data at the end! The private lesson for two hours was quite intense, and I ended up with sore muscles. Haha!

一人での参加でしたが楽しめました！波が穏やかで初心者におススメです。一人での参加だったので写真取れないなぁと思っていたら、最後に写真データをもらえて感動でした！！プライベートレッスン2時間は結構ハードで筋肉痛になりました。笑

The scooter is controlled by the guide, so you hardly have to operate it yourself. It was interesting and offered a different underwater sensation compared to scuba diving. You can see fish gathering around the bait right in front of you. Unfortunately, the crew, aside from the interpreter, didn't seem to want to interact much with the Japanese guests, which was disappointing, so I deducted one star.

スクーターはガイドさんが押してコントロールしてくれるので、ほとんど操作することはありません。スキューバダイビングとも違う水中感覚で面白かったです。魚が餌に群がってくるのを目の前で見れます。通訳の方以外のクルーは、あまり日本人と接触しようとしなかったので残念な感じがして星一つ減らしました。

This time, I used the service with my wife and daughter. The boat operator and the parasailing assistant mostly spoke English, but they did their best to entertain us with broken Japanese. We shared the ride with two American couples and had a great time.

今回、妻・娘の3人で利用しました。
ボートのオペレーターやパラセイリングのアシスタントも、殆ど英語なのですが片言の日本語で一生懸命楽しませてくれました。
アメリカのカップル2組と乗り合わせましたが、十分に楽しめました。

I was able to go to my long-awaited Lanikai Beach by renting a bicycle! (I struggled a bit to get used to the brakes.) I was also able to rent a snorkeling set, so I was happy to see a lot of fish. The pizza for lunch was very delicious, but I regretted leaving about half of it because the portion was so large. If I get the chance to go again, I would definitely like to use this service.

レンタサイクルを借りて、念願のラニカイビーチに行くことができました！
（なかなかブレーキのかけ方が慣れなくて苦労しましたが）
シュノーケルセットも借りられたので、魚もたくさん見られてよかったです。
お昼のピザがとてもおいしかったのですが、量が多くて半分くらい残してしまったのが心残りでした。
また行くことがあったら、是非利用したいです。

The parasailing itself was enjoyable, and the weather was nice, so I had a great time. However, my friend who was with me got seasick. Since the boat swayed quite a bit, I think it's better for those who are anxious to take motion sickness medication.

パラセーリング自体は
気持ちよく、天気も良かったので
楽しめましたが一緒に居た友人が
船酔いをしてしまいました。
かなり横揺れが激しいため
不安な人は酔い止めを飲んだほうが良いと思います。

I was a bit worried about the light rain as I boarded the boat, but it stopped right away. I had signed up for the 130m experience, but the other passengers were at the same height, so I wondered if the height standards of 110, 130, and 150 meters really made a difference. The view of Diamond Head and the high-rise hotels below was fantastic.

雨がパラパラで大丈夫かなと思いながら乗船。すぐやんだ。１３０ｍに申しこんだが、同じ乗船客も同じ高さだったので、高さ基準は110も130も150も変わらないのでは、、、と思った。
ダイヤモンドヘッドや高層ホテル群が眼下に見えて素晴らしかった。

We were a group of two Japanese people and three Asians. The lecture was given in English, but I somehow understood it through gestures. They pushed the board from behind and taught us the timing to catch the waves, so I was able to stand up. It was fun.

我々日本人二人とアジア人３人のグル－プで。英語でレクチャーされたが手振り身振りでなんとなくわかった。ボ－ドを後ろから押してくれて波に乗るタイミングを教えてくれるので、立てました。楽しかった。

This is a must for anyone visiting Kauai. The staff were exceptional and the tour was too. It was my favorite part of the vacation.

It was my first challenge, but that feeling was truly wonderful. Seeing Waikiki from the sky with my spouse made me want to shout, "It's all ours!" The only disappointing thing was that we couldn't buy a photo of ourselves flying. It seems we had to request it at the beginning.

初めてのチャレンジでしたが、あの感覚は、ホントに素晴らしいものでした。夫婦で翔んだ空から見るワイキキも、全部俺たちのものだぁ！と叫びたくなりましたよ。
一つだけ残念だったのは、自分達の翔んだ姿の写真が買えなかったこと。最初に頼んでないとダメだったようです。

It's important not to have high expectations. When you come to Waikiki, you can't help but think about catching big fish or a lot of them, but with that shabby gear and rod, it's impossible. It feels like I'm just wandering around places where there are definitely no fish, and it's kind of embarrassing.

期待しない事がだいじ。やはり、ワイキキまで来たらデカイ魚や、数がたくさん釣れるとか考えてしまいますが、あのボロい仕掛けと竿では無理。ポイントも絶対に魚が居ない所をウロウロして馬鹿にされてるみたいです。

The hotel transfer and the captain's Japanese were a bit uncertain, but there aren't any complicated procedures, so you can rest assured. This person, despite their shaky Japanese, occasionally throws in jokes, which can make understanding a bit tricky (laughs).

On the day of the trip, it was quite windy, and my entire family got seasick. They asked us to please vomit at the back of the boat.

The underwater scooter is always held by a diver at the back, so it's reassuring. The first four people won't get wet above the face while riding the bike, but you will definitely get wet when getting off.

The underwater scenery is quite beautiful and full of fish. You can get bread to put in the net, and when you do, the fish come rushing over. A turtle was swimming nearby too!

Snacks were all-you-can-eat, but a South American family was stuffing their bags with them.

After the underwater bike ride, I didn't have the energy to enjoy snorkeling and was completely exhausted on the deck... I was thinking, "Please get me back to land quickly." Everyone else seemed to be having fun... how nice!

They take photos and videos underwater, and you can check them on a computer when you return to the office. If you like them, you can purchase the photos and videos for US$75 in an upload site format. They are very well taken, so I think it's worth buying. You can pay in cash on the spot or wait to pay at the hotel after the transfer.

The staff had slightly fewer smiles, which made me a bit anxious, but I felt they were doing their best while considering safety.

ホテル送迎&船長の方の日本語が微妙で不安でしたが実際にはそんなに難しい手順は無いのでご安心ください。
この方、日本語微妙なくせにたまにジョーク入れるので理解を難しくさせてくれます(笑)

当日はかなり風が強くて我が家族は全員船酔いになりました。吐く方は船の後方でお願いします。
とのことです。

水中スクータは常にダイバーの方が後方で掴んでいてくれるので安心です。
最初の４名までバイク搭乗時に顔から上が濡れませんが、下車時に必ず濡れます。

水中はかなり綺麗で魚だらけです。網に入ったパンをもらえるのでてでモフモフすると魚たちがワーっと寄ってきます。カメさんも近くを泳いでいました！

スナックは食べ放題でしたが、南米系(?)の家族がドンドン自分のBAGに詰め込んでました。

水中バイク後のシュノーケリングを楽しむ余裕はなく、甲板でグッタリしてました。。。
は、早く陸地に返して〜という思いでした。
皆さんは楽しいでらっしゃいました。。。いいなー

水中で写真や動画を撮影してくれているのでオフィスに戻ってパソコンで確認させてくれます。
気に入ったらUS$75で写真も動画もアップロードサイト形式にて購入できます。
非常によく撮れているので購入した方が良いと思います。
代金はキャッシュでその場で支払うか、送迎後にホテルで待っててもらって支払うこともできます。

スタッフの方々はすこーし笑顔が少ないので不安になりますが、皆さんなりに安全面も考慮して一生懸命やられていると感じましたよ。

I nervously challenged myself to the 90M. It was a lot of fun. Next time, I want to try the 150M!

わたしの方がビクビクしながら、、90Mにチャレンジしました。とても楽しかったです。次回は150Mに挑戦してみたいです！

I was able to enjoy kayaking and snorkeling with peace of mind, thanks to the careful consideration given to all participants. Thank you very much.

参加者全員にきめ細かく配慮していただき、安心してカヤック、シュノーケリングを楽しむことができました。ありがとうございました。

On the day we arrived in Hawaii, our family of four (two adults, a middle schooler, and an elementary schooler) participated. The introduction page mentioned "everyone paddles together" and "participants must be 3 years or older," so I assumed everyone would be paddling. However, when we participated, only the two adults were allowed to paddle. The children, aged 13 and 11, were told by the captain in English, "If I give the oars to the kids, they'll lose them, and that would be a problem," so they could only ride along. Instead, two male helpers paddled with us, but the kids were disappointed, so I wish we had known this when signing up. *I saw in other reviews that it mentioned "it's okay if women and children don't paddle," but in our case, it was more like "the kids wanted to paddle, but they weren't even allowed to hold the oars." The surfing itself was really fun and went by too quickly. Since we only had two runs, it felt a bit unsatisfying.

ハワイ到着日に、家族4人（夫婦・中学生・小学生）で参加しました。
紹介ページには「みんなで息を合わせて漕ぐ」「３歳以上参加可能」などと書かれており、全員で漕ぐものだとばかり思っていましたが、参加してみると、漕がせてもらえたのは大人２人だけ。子供たちは１３歳と１１歳ですが、船長さんから「子供にオールを渡すと、なくすから困るんだよね～」と英語で言われ、漕がせてもらえず、ただ乗るだけでした。代わりに助っ人さん（男性２人）が一緒に乗って漕いでくれましたが、子供たちはがっかりしていたので、できれば申込時に知りたかったです。※他の方の口コミに「女子供は漕がなくても大丈夫」というような記載がありましたが、私たちの場合は「子供たちも漕いでみたかったのに、オールさえ持たせてもらえない」状況でした。
波乗り自体は本当に楽しくて、楽しすぎて、あっという間でした。２本だけだったので、何だかちょっと物足りないくらいでした。

The weather was nice, the sea was beautiful, and the staff were very friendly!
I was surprised by the size of the pizza I ordered for lunch!
I couldn't help but laugh. (I finished it all)
In the afternoon, I rented a bicycle and went shopping in Kailua.
It was great to shop without worrying about the kids and dad!
(The staff gave me some advice.)
The kids and dad rented bodyboards and enjoyed riding the waves.
They were happy to see fish and crabs.
It's a beach I want to visit again.

天気も良く、海はキレイ、ｽﾀｯﾌの皆さんはとても親切！！
ﾗﾝﾁで頼んだﾋﾟｻﾞの大きさにビックリ！！
笑わずにはいられませんでした。（完食）
午後は私だけ自転車を借りて、ｶｲﾙｱまでお買い物に。
子供とﾊﾟﾊﾟに気兼ねする事無く、買い物ができて最高！
（ｽﾀｯﾌの方にｱﾄﾞﾊﾞｲｽして頂きました）
子供たちとﾊﾟﾊﾟはﾎﾞﾃﾞｨｰﾎﾞｰﾄﾞを借りて波乗り？を楽しんでいました。
魚やｶﾆを見れて、子供たちはうれしそうでした。
また、行きたいﾋﾞｰﾁです。

Since my child turned 10, we decided to try the underwater scooter that we couldn't do last year! We read plenty of experiences beforehand, and we were prepared with motion sickness medication and cold weather gear! Although there were no Japanese-speaking staff, the person who welcomed us and took photos was very polite. The other staff members were also attentive, and honestly, it was the best experience I've had among various tours.

Before boarding the boat, we received instructions on how to use the scooter and signed some documents. We were supposed to watch a video, but it seemed to be skipped due to a late-arriving group. The boat could hold about 25 people and did not have a restroom.

Once we arrived at the spot, we quickly spotted sea turtles swimming around!

We experienced the underwater scooter in pairs, then groups of three, and finally four. Since there were three of us, we were in the middle group. We were told we could snorkel freely while waiting, but we decided to wait on the boat until after our turn with the underwater scooter.

The boat rocked quite a bit. It would have been tough without taking motion sickness medication (laughs).

For the underwater scooter, we started with two scooters, going one by one, creating a time gap. When it was our turn, we had three scooters, and I went down first, followed by my child and then my husband. When my child came up, they took a photo of the two of them, and after my husband joined, they took photos and videos of the three of us. After I came up first, they also took pictures of my child and husband. They even used my handheld camera to take some shots!

Underwater, it was as beautiful as I imagined. The round helmet created a strange view, but various fish gathered around the food, allowing us to enjoy watching them up close, while sea turtles swam above us in a mystical world. The 20 minutes flew by. Snorkeling was also fun, as we spotted sea turtles!

When getting on and off the scooter, you have to dive into the sea, so your face gets wet! Also, the staff gives instructions on how to operate the scooter, so it's manageable even for children.

After everyone finished, we returned to the building where we received the initial briefing to check the photos and videos by group. If we liked them, we could proceed to purchase. We could choose either just photos or a set of photos and videos, with prices varying by the number of people. We got the set for $60. Later, a URL was sent to my email for downloading. They advised downloading on a computer since the data size was large.

On the way back, we were exhausted and fell into a deep sleep (laughs).

Thank you to all the staff for a wonderful time! It was enjoyable, but the waiting times were a bit tough, so I’m giving it one star less.

子供が10歳になったので去年出来なかった水中スクーターに挑戦！
事前に体験談をしっかり読み、酔い止めヨシ！寒さ対策ヨシ！
日本語を話せるスタッフはいませんでしたが、お迎え＋写真撮影のお兄さんは、とても丁寧に対応してくれました。他のスタッフさんもキチンと対応してくれ、今まで色々なツアーに参加しましたが、正直、一番感じが良かったです。

船に乗る前にスクーターの乗り方の説明と書類に署名をしました。
ホントはビデオも見るようですが、遅れてきたグループがいたため省略したようです。
船はトイレなしの25人くらい乗れる船でした。
ポイントに到着すると、早くも海亀さんを発見！2、3匹泳いでました。

水中スクーターは2人組→3人組→4人組の順で体験しました。
うちは3人でしたので、真ん中くらい。
待ち時間は、自由にシュノーケルをしていいよ！と言われましたが、水中スクーターをやってからにしようと船で待つことにしました。

船はかなり揺れます。酔い止めを飲んでなかったらヤバかったかも（笑）。

水中スクーターは最初は2台で､1台ずつ潜っていくので時差ができ､上がって来たら次の人…という感じでした。
うちの順番のときに3台になり、私、子供、旦那の順に潜りました。
子供が潜って来たときに、ふたりの写真を撮ってくれ､旦那が合流して3人の写真や動画を撮り、先に私が上がった後、子供と旦那の写真も撮ってくれました。
あと、手持ちのカメラでも撮ってくれました！
水中は、想像通り綺麗でした。被るやつが丸いので不思議な見え方になりますが、
餌に色々なお魚が集まって来て、目の前でお魚を鑑賞し、頭上を海亀さんが泳いでいる神秘的な世界です。あっという間の20分間でした。
シュノーケルも海亀さんを見かけたり、楽しかったです。

水中スクーターは乗るときと降りるときに海に潜って頭を出し入れするので、顔が濡れます！あと、スクーターの操作は、スタッフさんが指示してくれるので子供でも大丈夫です。

全員終了後、最初に説明を受けた建物に戻り、写真と動画をグループごとに確認して、気に入ったら購入手続きへ｡写真のみか写真と動画のどちらか選べ、人数によって値段が異なりました。うちは、写真と動画のセットで＄60でした。
後日メールアドレスにURLが送られてきて、ダウンロードするやり方です。
データが大きいのでパソコンでダウンロードしてくれ！と言われました。

帰りの車では疲れて爆睡（笑）。

スタッフの皆様、楽しい時間をありがとうございました！
楽しかったのですが、待ち時間の波がきつかったので星マイナス１で。

That was an awesome adventure! My brother and I had a blast we just wish the ride was at least ten minutes longer. Besides that the crew was very professional but also new how to have a good time. We would definitely do it again. Although for future customers you should add some time for the price! Thanks.

I flew with my husband and our 17-year-old daughter. I was eager to take pictures, but the boat was quite rocky, which made it challenging. The view from above was amazing, and there was no fear at all; it felt absolutely wonderful.

夫と17歳娘で飛びました。私は写メを撮ろうと張り切っていましたが船の揺れがけっこうあり苦戦しました。
上からの景色は最高で思ってたこわさなど全然なく最高に気持ちよかったそうです。

The pickup was on time, and we enjoyed parasailing. We also had family photos taken, but after arriving at the port, we had to wait for a while. When I asked, I was told that the photo data was on the camera that was on the next boat, so they couldn't give it to us right away. They asked us to come back to the port, but we had other plans, so we couldn't go. It was really disappointing since we wanted those photos. Everything else was great.

ピックアップも時間通りにしてもらいパラセイルも楽しめました。家族での写真も撮ってもらっていただけに港に着いてから暫く待たされ、聞いてみると写真のデータはカメラを次の便に乗せたのですぐには渡せないとの事。
また港に来てくれと言われましたが予定もあったので行けませんでした。せっかく欲しかったデータだけにその辺りがすごく残念でした。あとは良かったです。

Loved the view we had as the captain brought us closer to Diamondhead! Got to see honus and had tons of fun! Definitely recommend! :)

Hawaii parasailing at a height of 90m. Almost took off into the sky without much explanation. But it felt great! I enjoyed the scenery and the wind from above, and my wife, who went up next, said she was able to see turtles from the sky.

ハワイ　パラセイリング　高さ90m　　ほとんど、説明なく空へテイクオフ。　でも、気持ちよかった～　　僕は、上空からは景色と風を楽しみましたが、次にとんだ奥さんはは、上空からカメを見れたそうです。

The departure featured Motley Crue. The sailing was smooth and thrilling until we returned to port. The scenery was also fantastic. I highly recommend it!

出港からBGNはモトリークルー。セイリング、帰港までスムーズで、スリリングでした。景色も最高。おすすめですよ
