Turtle Reef Kayak Tour in Maui - Snorkel with Sea Turtles at Makena Landing & Winter Whale Watching

Snorkel & Kayak: A Good Combination

Reviewed by: AKVisitor

Kayaking is a great way to observe different snorkeling sites. Lots of friendly sea turtles and was able to hear the songs of the humpback whales. Would have liked to see more varieties of fish. For a kayaker used to a 1-person boat, the 2-person kayak was more limiting. Our guide provided a lot of information about the sea life in the area. It was very informational. Overall a good day.

We saw so many turtles! We had a little trouble with Snuba because of some ear pain, but our dive instructor was great at working with us. They even stopped on the way back for some whale watching and we saw a whole pod! Definitely recommended for a great adventure

On the sea 海の上

Reviewed by: KEN

I went with high expectations, but if you are prone to seasickness, please be careful.

It's definitely better to take motion sickness medication.

The staff is accustomed to dealing with Japanese customers, so there are no issues.

I also noticed an interesting policy at the reception where customers who cause trouble pay an extra $10.

I thought it would be nice to experience it at least once, so I encourage everyone to give it a try.

期待をして、行きましたが船酔いをする人は気をつけてください。

必ず、酔い止めを飲んだ方がいいです。

スタッフは日本人の対応にも慣れていて問題ありません。

迷惑をかけた、客は10ドル多めに払うという面白い内容も受付でみうけました。

一回、体験できればいいと思いましたが是非、皆さん一度は体験してみてください。

Hans Hedemann Waikiki Surfing Lessons - Honolulu's Best Surf School

Fun Experience!

Reviewed by: EYSL

We went on our Honeymoon and this was one of the activities that we have done. If this is your first time surfing, don't fret. The staff are professional and they teach you all the basics. Opt for the private lessons because if you are tired from paddling, the instructor can help you back to the waves hence more opportunity for you to keep on practicing to get better. The photographer was great as well as he managed to capture some great photos and you can get them all in a disc which was nice. Highly recommended...

Kipu Safari Adventure - Zipline, Hike, Kayak & Waterfall Swim with Lunch

Kipu Zipline Safari

Reviewed by: William

Kipu Zipline Safari was a blast!! The tour is packed with 7 hours of fun activities. Although little pricey, but there is no other tour package on the island that can rival the Kipu Safari in terms of excitement. The tour guides are very knowledgeable about the island and extremely friendly. They're also very careful in handling our food. However, for those of you whose ideas of fun includes relaxing and sunbathing at the beach, this trip is not for you. But, if you're interested in little adventures and learnings and don't mind getting wet and muddy, this trip is not be missed.

ハンズ・ヒーデマン サーフィンレッスン

No. 1, for sure! NO1でしょう!

Reviewed by: pinky犬子

I live in Hawaii half the time.

My friend is coming to Hawaii and wants to try surfing, so I signed up for lessons. I can ride the waves, but I don't have the skill or stamina to teach, so I signed up for my friend's sake.

In reality, surfing has its own competition for waves (territory?), but here, you can take lessons at a long-established place with no complaints.

No matter which instructor you get, most people are able to stand up on the board, and if there are any who haven't yet, they focus on helping them, which I think is very considerate.

半分ハワイに在住してます。

お友達がハワイに来るのに際して、サーフィンをやりたいということで申し込みました。
自分は波乗りをするのですが教えるほどの技量や体力がないので友達の為に申し込みました。

実際にサーフィンは波取り合戦が(縄張り?)があるので、ここは老舗で文句なしの状態でレッスンを受けれます。

どの先生にあたっても、ほとんどの人が立てますし、まだ立ててない人がいると集中的に手伝ってくれたりと、かなり良心的だと思います。

Parasailing in Oahu

Reviewed by: Sukhjinder

My family of 5 had a blast parasailing. The staff were great and made the experience a lot of fun. The time in the boast went by so fast but when I was up in the air, the time seemed to stand still. The ride is very peaceful and the views are outstanding. I didn't even mind the dunk in the ocean on our way down to the boat.
The value of the activities was very high, especially considering the discounted price we received at Hawaii Activities.

It's tiring, but fun! 疲れるけど楽しい!

Reviewed by: いときち

You will be picked up by bus, and once you arrive, you'll have free time at the beach in the morning. In the afternoon, you'll receive instructions on kayaking and then set off!

By the way, you can rent bodyboards in the morning. However, while the local women next to me were smoothly riding the same waves, I struggled to get on...

For lunch, you can choose between a bento box or pizza. The pizza was delicious but quite large.

Kayaking is tough because you have to carry the kayak back and forth to the beach by yourself.

Honestly, it's challenging for two women. It's better to go with a strong man. I ended up with a slim guy, and while carrying it back, I hurt my back.

But kayaking itself is fun, and sea turtles come close, so if the weather is good, it's the best!

Just be aware that you can get sunburned easily, so ladies should definitely wear long-sleeved hoodies, hats, and sunscreen to be fully prepared.

バスで送迎してもらえて、現地に着くと午前中はビーチで自由時間。
午後になるとカヤックについてのインストラクションを受けて出発!

ちなみに午前中はボディボードとか借りられます。
でもお隣の現地人女性は同じ波でスーッと乗るのに自分はなかなか乗れませんでした・・・

お昼はお弁当かピザか選べます。
ピザは美味しかったけどおっきかったです。

カヤックは往復ビーチまで自分たちで運ぶので大変です。

正直女性二人は厳しい。
力持ちの男性と行きましょう。
私は細い彼といったがために、帰り運ぶときに手伝ってぎっくり腰になりました。

でもカヤック自体は楽しいし、ウミガメも近くに来るし、天気が良ければ最高!!

とにかくよく焼けるので、気になる女性は長袖パーカーは帽子、日焼け止めなど万全にしていきましょう。

The beach and the sea are beautiful! ビーチと海が美しい!

Reviewed by: とくちゃん

The beauty of the beach and the ocean is simply wonderful! The wind was quite strong, but it added to the fun. In the morning, we had free time near the beach, and in the afternoon, we went sea kayaking. We actually paddled for about two hours, with our initial destination being Flat Island right in front of us. If you have the time, I recommend going over to Lanikai Beach next door. Lanikai Beach was also incredibly beautiful, so if you can, definitely check it out. We even got to ride the waves while sea kayaking. It was my first experience, but I managed to succeed! This is a unique activity you can only do in Hawaii, and I highly recommend it!

とにかくビーチや海の美しさが素晴らしいです!
風が相当強かったのですが、それもまた楽しい、といった感じ。
午前中はビーチ付近で自由行動、午後にシーカヤック。
実際に漕いでいるのは2時間ほどで、当初の目的地は目の前のフラットアイランド。余裕があれば、お隣りのラニカイビーチまで。
ラニカイビーチがまた素晴らしい美しさでしたので、余裕がある方はオススメ。
シーカヤックで波乗りもさせてもらいました。
初体験でしたが、なんとか成功!
ハワイならではのアクティビティで、オススメです!

Highly Recommended!

Reviewed by: Nat C

My husband and I took this tour recently while in Hawaii and it rocked! Our driver was Sam and he was great. Very knowledgable about Hawaii and offered some really interesting tidbits of info. He was laid back, friendly and very engaging. This tour is great because you have the freedom to choose your activities and even traveling in a group you are not forced to select the same options. You can add activities on site which was also a plus. We were dropped in each location for about two hours and were free to eat, wander and otherwise do as we chose. There was a lady in our group that was by herself and she really enjoyed herself as well. Hailewa town was cool to wander around in and my husband even had time to kayak there and join me at the shops. Free water and juice was also a nice bonus. I highly recommend this tour if you are headed to Oahu!

I can't swim very well, but I want to try surfing!! So, I participated in a lesson with Hands Heedman Hawaii Local Surfing Lessons☆

The instructor taught us patiently in both Japanese and English at the office, and we practiced exactly as we were taught during the two sessions.

Once we got into the water, if I couldn't paddle well, they would pull me along, which really reduced my fear.

I highly recommend this for beginners♪

Reviewed by: Debbie

I've never kayaked before and thought this was fun. It was a little windy on the day we went out but that didn't hinder us at all except when it came time to see the cave. Only one or two boats braved this part. Get ready to climb up some lava cliffs (about 4 feet high) and then jump back in too. Hadn't done anything like that in awhile but found it to be fun and refreshing. I sit at a desk all day so this was awesome for me. The snorkeling was beautiful as usual in Hawaii so no disappointment there. Overall we had a great time!

Parasailing パラセーリング

Reviewed by: ぽんた

I experienced parasailing.

I was anxious due to my fear of heights, but up in the sky, it was calm, and I was very satisfied with the magnificent view. Since transportation is included, it's reassuring even for beginners in Hawaii. The total time is about 2 hours, so it doesn't interfere with other plans. If I have the opportunity to go to Hawaii again, I would definitely want to sign up for this tour and recommend it to my friends.

However, there is one point to note. That is seasickness. I am prone to seasickness, so the rocking of the boat while others were parasailing was tough. Motion sickness medication is a must.

パラセーリングを体験してきました。


高所恐怖症のため不安がありましたが、空の上は穏やかで、壮大な景色にとても満足しました。
送迎付なので、ハワイ初心者でも安心です。
時間も正味2時間程度なので、他の予定の邪魔になりません。
またハワイに行く機会があればぜひ申し込みたいですし、友人にも紹介したいツアーです。

ただ、一つだけ注意点があります。
それは、船酔いです。
元々船酔いするタイプでしたので、他の方がパラセーリングしている間の船の揺れは辛かったです。
酔い止めの薬は必須です。

I took a surfing lesson using an extra-large surfboard, and I was able to stand up on my first try as if it were the most natural thing. The slogan is "Even beginners can stand up," so maybe that's to be expected, but it felt a bit too easy from the start, which was a bit of a letdown.

The lesson was just a 5-minute walk from the shop, and the 2 hours flew by. However, since we were learning right above a coral reef, I was really focused on not falling. My husband ended up injuring his foot.

But I was happy that we were able to get some photos taken. I thought the $30 for the CD was a reasonable price.
