Hawaii
What an experience... I have a fear of heights that I've developed with age... This is NOT scary, this is simply amazing. I felt completely safe and seeing the crystal clear blue water from a couple of hundred feet up in the air was unbelievable. It's quiet up in the air, extremely serene, you can take in the beauty of the cove, the reef and mountains in such a different way. 10 mins up in the air is actually a surprisingly long time - even when you skydive you generally hit the ground within a few minutes so this way you actually get to appreciate the view, with the adrenalin rush of leaving the boat and being so high, feet dangling! what makes these guys different is that they take A LOT of photos and they have a camera attached to the parachute - it's worth buying at the end - they're great quality. The team is fantastic... definitely want to go out with them again and try the other activities... thanks Seabreeze!!!
It was more fun and faster than it looked from a distance! Taking photos before getting on was a great memory.
遠目で見るよりスピードもあり、楽しかったです!乗る前に写真を撮ってもらいよい記念です。
We had an amazing time with our guide Finch with South Pacific Kayak!! We got to witness so many amazing, beautiful things! Whales breaching out of the ocean, Dolphines dancing 10 feet in front of us and the beautiful, colorful fish and turtles that inhabbit the ocean. Such an amazing time!! We wanted to go back the next day!! This was our first time Kayaking, it was amazing.
Thank you for an amazing adventure!!

You won't have the luxury to enjoy the scenery; it's incredibly thrilling!!!
The highest point is the same as the observation deck of Tokyo Tower…!
Well… if you're looking for a unique experience that you can only get overseas, this is the best.
If you don't mind heights but are a bit hesitant about it, you should prepare yourself.
People with acrophobia should think carefully (laughs).
Make sure to take motion sickness medication! Also, depending on the roughness of the waves, it might be impossible to take photos or videos, so it's a good idea to prepare $30 to have the guy take pictures for you.
Don't forget to tip. The photos turned out great◎
It might be worth experiencing at least once.
景色を見る余裕もなく、めちゃくちゃスリリング!!!
最高の高さは東京タワーの大展望台と同じ…!
まあ…海外ならではの経験を求めるならコレはベストだよ。
ただ高い所は嫌いじゃないけどあんまりな~…な人は覚悟した方がいい。
高所恐怖症の人はよく考えて(笑)
酔い止めは必ず!あと、写真やビデオカメラは波の荒れ方によっては撮影不可能だから30ドル用意してお兄さんに写真を撮ってもらうのがいいですよ。
チップも忘れずに。いい写真撮れてた◎
一度は経験してもいいかもね。
Great, fun day splashing around off the Kona coast. Nothing wildly new, unless you've never done this sort of thing before. Getting buzzed by a pod of spinner dolphins and the 20-ft cliff jump were highlights. Just be aware: you're looking at several hours of direct sun here, so best buy the aloe first.
I had friends visiting the islands, and they wanted to do something a bit different, and 'off the beaten path' so I decided to take them Ocean Kayaking over in Kailua! We headed out, a bit late, and got there and the staff at Kailua Sailboards and Kayaks were amazing and friendly, telling us all the best insider tips for kayaking out there! We got out into the ocean, and it was extremely windy and choppy, but it was so much fun heading out to Flat Island and then over to the beach for a bit of relaxing snorkeling and sunbathing. Thanks again to the great staff at Kailua Sailboards for all their help with everything kayak and ocean related, my friends and I had a blast braving the elements and spending the day out on the water!
My husband and I loved this! We were hoping to have a little more freedom of where to go for the jetski part, but all the same it was fantastic! The parasailing was AMAZING!!! The colors of the ocean were breathtaking! The staff were incredible as well! Worth every penny and one of the best combo packs we went on!
It was a compact tour of kayaking, snorkeling, cliff diving and sea-cave watching, though the weather didn't allow sea-cave exploration on that day. The overall experience was worthwhile for a first-timer. The tour made it much easier for route guidance, picking up kayaking tips, tying up kayaks when snorkeling and quick onshore energy supplement. It might be a little demanding physically for individual rowers. Yet the staff were very experienced, helpful (and encouraging for beginners).
Had a good time. I'm athletic so asked for a single but was put in a double kayak with my father since girls are "weak". My father got sea sick so we were towed back even though I wanted to do the rowing. I never did get the exercise I wanted and never saw the sea caves so was pretty disappointed. My brother went on to see the caves in his single kayak. We were told that the activity would be over at noon but my brother came back at 11 a.m. We had to wait around til noon for our ride which was also a little disappointing. Wouldn't do this activity again under the circumstances.
I participated in February, and honestly, it was quite cold at first since the sun hadn't risen yet. However, the sunrise I saw while kayaking out to sea was truly beautiful. It was my first time kayaking in the ocean, but once I got the hang of it, I was surprisingly able to paddle as I wanted, and it was fun.
The sea where I went snorkeling had very beautiful coral. The morning hours are very affordable, and after the tour, I was able to use the whole day, making it a fulfilling day.
二月に参加し、しかもはじめのうちは陽も登る前だったので、正直いって寒かったです。でもカヤックで海に出て行っている途中で見た朝日は本当に綺麗でした。海でのカヤックは初めてでしたが、コツを掴むと意外と思い通りに漕ぐことができ、楽しかったです。
シュノーケリングをした海はサンゴがとても綺麗なところでした。
朝の時間は格安ですし、ツアー参加後も一日をまるまる使えて充実した一日を過ごせました。
The crew was excellent. They encouraged without pushing past your comfort zone.
The song says"Catch a wave and your sitting on top of the world" I DID IT!! On Feb. 13th I had the unique chance to learn how to surf. Let me say I am 65 years old and our(my) instructor Stacey did it all right. I had good "pre-flight" instruction and indeed got up on 3 waves. I did not stand up, but the feeling of being on a board on my knees was remarkable. From check-in to instruction to surfing..it was all ONO. Mahalo guys it was SUPER.

This was my third time parasailing, and it's always fun no matter how many times I do it. I didn't feel seasick, and I think anyone can enjoy it. I want to go parasailing again when I visit Hawaii!
パラセイリングは3回目でしたが何回やっても楽しいです。船酔いもなく、だれでも楽しめるとおもいます。ハワイに行った際にはまたパラセイリングをしたいです!
I was so glad i did it!! I was a bit nervous at first, only chose 600ft line. It was an amazing view, amazing weather, and felt very safe! My dad can't swim - doesn't usually get into the water and afraid of heights, but he himself loved it!! If we were in Hawaii another day, I would have done it again but upgraded to the full 1000ft! I also liked the fact that this company is very safe! They cancelled my first reservation due to high winds & I'm glad they did because the second reservation I made, the weather was PERFECT!! Beautiful skies, water was amazing, and we got to see whales! Loved every moment of it!! Felt so free!!
The meeting spot was Kevin. When I greeted him with "Hello," he responded with "Konnichiwa!"—he's a guide fluent in Japanese. In fact, he's been living in Japan for 25 years! From the meeting point, it was a 3-minute walk to the departure location, where we learned how to paddle a sea kayak before setting off. After paddling for about 30 to 45 minutes in Keauhou Bay, we snorkeled in a spot where we could see down to about 10 meters deep. When we got tired of snorkeling, we climbed up on some rocks for snack time. It was a very Hawaiian Island activity, and I was quite satisfied. A hat is essential for sun protection.
待ち合わせ場所にやってきたのはケビンさん。ハローと声をかけると、こんにちは!と返してくる日本語堪能なガイドさんです。というより日本に25年?も住んでいたのですからたいしたものです。待ち合わせ場所から出発地点までは徒歩3分でシーカヤックの漕ぎ方を教わってから即出発。ケアウホウ湾を30分~45分ほど漕ぐと水深10mぐらまで見える場所でスノーケリング。スノーケリングに疲れたら岩の上に登りスナックタイム。すごくハワイ島らしいアクティビティーで満足でした。日焼け対策に帽子は必須です。
The wind was strong, and kayaking was more challenging than I expected, but it wasn't as tough as club activities.
The ocean was truly beautiful, and I even encountered a sea turtle while swimming along the way.
Our guide was an American who spoke Japanese, and he was full of humor, making it a fun experience.
風が強く、カヤックは思ったより大変でしたが、部活ほどではありません。
海が、本当に美しく、途中泳いでいるウミガメにも出会いました。
ガイドさんは、日本語を話すアメリカ人で、ユーモアたっぷりで楽しめました。
I was scared, but she was really happy, so I'm satisfied.
自分は恐かったが彼女はすごくよろこんでいたので満足です。
We had no idea what to do the last day of our vacation, I am so glad the staff at Hawaiiactivities.com mentioned "Well why don't you guys do some Parasailing!"... this activity totally reeked of AWESOMENESS!!
This was my wife's first time parasailing, she screamed, but she loved it!. We had a terriffic time! The crew was great and even let my wife drive the boat around the Waikiki Coastline.
My friend and I had a great time. We biked from Kailua to Lanikai and did a little snorkeling and then back to Kailua for a little R&R on the beach.Kailua was one of the best beaches we went to, great water and sand.... wish we did the kayaks but I guess it's best to reserve something for next time!
Our family of 4 enjoyed this trip so much! We had a bit of trouble finding the boat (not the marina) due to construction and limited parking, but once we walked on board, it was fun and relaxing. The people are terrific and you can tell they love their jobs being on that boat-very friendly and entertaining. Breakfast muffins, bagels, fruit and coffee were available as the boat took us out to Molokini (about 30 mins.) and an enormous whale leaped right in front of the boat! There were many more to be seen that day but it want an exciting start. Molokini was not overrated! Underwater Discovery Channel complete with tons of colorful fish, strange anemones and even a purple jelly fish. It was so beautiful against the wall of the crater. I swam back to the boat quickly to buy the $25, reusable underwater camera because it was so magical. The pix came out great! My 7 year old was nervous at first b/c she'd never snorkled, but the crew worked with her 1-on-1, made her laugh, gave her a noodle
The tour was made up of just my family and self. We had a GREAT time. Our guide could not have been more helpful. Lot's of great info on the hike, and the waterfall was spectacular!
I read one of the reviewers saying there was allot of waiting no worries as we are on hols and whats the rush. The Seabreeze crew was very professional and completed the instruction on the skis and provided us with a safety video before we commenced the ride. The triangle course was large enough to get up a decent speed on the skis, with only 6 skis on at a time provided a good space between each of them. The skis were in good condition and they were so much fun, definately a highlight of our trip.
The only negative is that we had a camera not taking videos and photos as well which was unfortunately as my daughter was the victim who likes to take photos and remember great moments, if it was of one of my sons they wouldn't of cared so much.
SeaBreeze sports needs to look into this as allot of the reviews have mentioned this.
This was a very exciting experience for our girls. We all loved every minute of it and the guys who took us were awesome.
This surf lesson were so cool! The instructors were really good and help out a lot. It was so much fun!
My time at Kailua beach was probably the biggest highlight of my whole time in hawaii! It was beautiful and you are well away from the crowds that crowd the beach Waikiki. I chose snorkelling as my option and was not disappointed, the staff where you get your equipment from are so friendly and knowledgable, I was directed to the best part of the beach for snorkelling. I even swam out 1/2 a mile to the little island!! Which was good fun, easy enough swim, any average swimmer could do it. So beautiful and the water was so clear!
While driving in Kailua, I saw people kayaking towards an island, and I just had to try it myself, so I quickly returned to the hotel and signed up for a guided tour.
My 9-year-old son and my 70-year-old father, along with the whole family, enjoyed it. While paddling towards the island, the staff kept a watchful eye on us, which made us feel safe. The beauty of the ocean goes without saying, and once we landed on the island, they provided explanations about nature in Japanese, which was very informative.
For lunch, we chose pizza, and it was incredibly delicious, which surprised us. The slices were large, so I was worried about whether we could finish them, but they were so tasty that our whole family devoured them.
I'm really glad I participated since it's an experience you can't easily have in Japan! This is an activity I want to repeat.
カイルアをドライブしていてカヤックで島に向っていく様子をみかけたので、どうしてもやりたくなって、早速ホテルに帰ってガイド付きのコースを申し込みました。
9歳の息子も70歳の父も家族全員で楽しめました。島にむかって漕いでいる間はスタッフが目をくばってくれるので、安心です。海の美しさは言わずもがな、島に上陸してからも自然についての説明を日本語で行ってくれるのでとってもためになりました。
ランチで私達はピザを選びましたが、このピザのおいしさがとんでもなくおいしく、びっくり。スライスが大きいので食べれるか心配でしたが、あまりのおいしさに家族みんなぺろりでした。
日本ではなかなか経験できないので参加して本当によかった!リピートしたいアクティビティです。
This was a great experience. My husband and I enjoyed the activity and the knowledgeable staff.
The activity is a lot of fun. The jet skis were in good condition, easy to ride, and quite fast. The staff took care to provide instruction. We were a bit disappointed to have to ride around a fairly small triangular course, but we had plenty of room for each rider.
There was a lot of waiting: the pickup was 10 minutes late. When we arrived at the location we waited to sign in, then saw a safety video, then waited 20 minutes for a boat to take us to the jet ski platform, then waited on the platform for our turn. After our ride we waited on the platform for a boat to take us back to shore, then waited for our photos, then waited for the van to take us back to town. All in all, for a 30-minute activity it was a LOT of waiting. Don't make plans that depend on being back in town early!
Also, although there is an online system that allows sign-up for solo or tandem rides, and assigned ride times, it turned out that they had 10 solo riders signed up for the 1:30 time slot, which was a
It was my first time kayaking, and I enjoyed it thanks to the gentle and easy-to-understand instructions.
During the snorkeling and snack time on land, I felt the warmth of Kevin and Noni's personalities, which was very soothing.
It would have been perfect if dolphins or whales had shown up.
初めてのカヤックでしたが、やさしくわかりやすくおしえていただき、楽しみました。
途中のシュノーケリングや上陸してのおやつタイム中もケビンさん、ノニさんのお人柄が伝わり、癒されました。
イルカやクジラが出てくれたら言うことなしです。
It was my second time, but it became the best memory for my mother, who was trying it for the first time!
私自身は2度目でしたが、初挑戦の母にとっては最高の思い出となりました!
