All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

I had always wanted to try parasailing, and I thought it would be amazing to experience it in Hawaii, so I decided to go for it and signed up. The breathtaking views from Waikiki to Diamond Head, along with the refreshing feeling and thrill, were incredible. I was a bit worried that the guide only spoke English, but they lightened the mood on the boat with jokes in Japanese, which made me feel at ease and I had a lot of fun. I'm really glad I participated. I splashed into the sea multiple times up to my chest!

Captain & Crew, thank you!!

一度体験してみたかったパラセーリング、ハワイで体験出来れば最高だと、思い切って申し込みました。
ワイキキの町並みからダイヤモンドヘッドまでの絶景と爽快感、スリルが楽しめます。
英語ガイドのみという点が少し不安でしたが、日本語を交えてのジョークで船の上を盛り上げてくれ安心でとても楽しく、参加して本当に良かったです。
胸元まで何回も海ポチャします！

Captain&Crew
thank you！！

A catamaran running on the sea. It has a sense of speed and might be a tour you can't experience in Japan. Seeing Diamond Head from the sea, sometimes splashed by the waves, was a fun time. Since you will get splashed, it's definitely recommended to wear clothes that can get wet. The catamaran moves on the sea, so it can feel quite chilly at times, especially after getting splashed. The sea can be quite rocky, so it might be a good idea to take motion sickness medication for stability.

海の上を走るカタマラン。スピード感があって、日本では体験できないツアーかも。海から見るダイヤモンドヘッド、時には波しぶきを浴びてワイワイ、楽しめる時間でした。波しぶきを浴びるので、濡れても良い服装が絶対お勧めです。海の上をカタマランが走るので、結構肌寒く感じる時があります、特に波しぶきを受けた後は。海上は結構揺れるので、安定様に酔い止めを飲むのもいいかも。

It was ok for the most part. I just felt rushed from what supposed to be half of day ended up being a 1/4 of the day. I just wish hours were long didn’t really get to enjoy the island as family.

This is my second time! It has to be 150m. I could say I came to Hawaii just for this (laughs). Unfortunately this time, I missed the bus and tried to get there with Biki, but got caught up in the Hilton strike line, which made me quite late. Even so, I was able to join, and it was a huge help. By the way, I called on the way to let you know I was late, but I couldn't get through to voicemail... that was a disappointing point.

Everyone was already on the boat, so I jumped right in and we set off! Same crew as last time! I love them ♡ I knew the drill, so even though it was a bit hectic, I just enjoyed it!

This time, the wind picked up quite a bit while we were out, which added an unexpected thrill (laughs). Based on last time's lesson, I had my Insta360 GO 3s ready at my chest and captured everything perfectly! Of course, the crew also takes photos from the boat (for a fee, and you need to confirm in advance). Diamond Head, Waikiki, Ala Moana... the blue sea and sky are just as beautiful as ever! The view is amazing!! According to the crew, there was a lady who was on her fifth time. I plan to beat that record (laughs).

However, there were some who got seasick, so if you're sensitive, it might be a good idea to take some medicine. It doesn't rock that much, though. It's a short time, and it's so much fun that you don't really have time to feel the rocking, if that's the right way to put it? (laughs)

I definitely recommend it!

Dear Crew,
I told you that I remember the Captain, but that was not correct. Last time, the Captain was a younger and shorter guy. Of course, it was true that I remember you and I joined the tour to see you! Thank you again and see you soon!

2度目です！150m一択でしょ。
これをするためにハワイに来たと言っても過言では無いです（笑）
今回大変申し訳無いことに、バスに間に合わず、Bikiで迷いながら行こうとして、ヒルトンのストライキ行列に巻き込まれて、かなり遅刻
それでも乗せてもらえて、めちゃくちゃ助かりました。因みに行く途中で遅刻を知らせるために電話しましたが、留守電で繋がりませんでした…それは残念ポイント。

既に皆さんボートに乗り込んでいたので、すぐに飛び乗り出発！
前回と同じCrew！大好き♡
要領はわかっていたので、バタバタしても、楽しむのみ！

今回は、上がっている時にかなり風が強くなって、ある意味想定以上のスリルが楽しめました（笑）
前回の教訓を元に、insta360 GO 3sを胸元に仕込んで、バッチリ撮影しました！勿論、ボートからCrewも撮影してくれます（有料。事前に要否確認あり）
ダイアモンドヘッド、ワイキキ、アラモアナ…言わずもがな青い海と空！眺めも最高です！！
Crewによると５回目という猛者のマダムもいたそう。私もその記録を越えようと思います（笑）

ただ、船酔いされた方もいたので、弱い方はお薬を飲んでおいた方がいいのかも。そんなに揺れませんけどね。短時間ですし、楽しすぎて揺れを感じる暇が無い、が正しいかな？（笑）

間違いなくオススメです！

Dear Crew,
I told you that I remember the Captain, but it was not correct. Last time, Captain was a younger and shorter guy. Of course it was true that I remember you and I joined the tour to see you! Thank you again and see you soon!

I made a last-minute reservation around 3:30 PM for the final flight at 5 PM. Despite the short notice, the staff were very kind and accommodating. There were four groups participating, and each group had about a 10-minute flight. Since it was in the evening, the view of the sunset and Waikiki was absolutely amazing!

当日の15時半ぐらいに急遽でしたが、最終17時に申し込みました。
急にも関わらずスタッフのみなさんは親切に対応してくれました。
4組での参加でしたが、1組だいたい10分ぐらいの飛行です。
夕方ということもあり、夕日とワイキキが一望でき最高でした!

I wanted to try surfing in Hawaii, so I participated in this famous school. There were about 10 people in total, all beginners, and we were the only Japanese, but there happened to be an instructor who spoke Japanese, so there were no problems at all.

I was nervous since it was my first challenge, but the instructor encouraged me, and I was able to stand up from the first try! I hardly took any breaks, so towards the end, I was able to ride the waves multiple times in quick succession. I'm not sure if I can ride the waves on my own yet, but I had a memorable and fun experience!

One thing to note is that it takes time to fill out the consent form, so you need to arrive 30 minutes before your reservation time (as mentioned on the voucher).

ハワイでサーフィンがしてみたかったので、有名なこちらのスクールに参加してみました。
参加した回は全部で10人くらい、全員初心者、日本人は私たちだけでしたが、日本語を話せるインストラクターさんが（たまたま？）いたので、全く問題ありませんでした。
初めての挑戦で緊張しましたが、インストラクターさんが押してくれたので1回目から立つことができました！私はほとんど休憩しなかったので、最後の方は短いスパンで何度も波に乗ることができました。
一人で波に乗れるようになったかというと怪しいですが、思い出に残る楽しい体験ができました！

注意点は、同意書の記入などに時間がかかるので、予約時間の30分前に到着しておく必要があることです（バウチャーに書いてあります）。

I had an amazing time.
We experienced parasailing as a family of four. We went up high enough to overlook Diamond Head.
The ocean was blue, and we could see Hawaii from above. I was worried because I'm not good with thrill rides, but it was not scary at all and was truly the best fun.
The captain's jokes were really entertaining, and I was laughing the whole time!
Thank you very much.

すごく楽しかったです。
パラセーリング家族4人で体験しました。ダイアモンドヘッドを見下ろす位の高さまで上がります。
海も青くてハワイが上から見れます。絶叫系が苦手で心配していましたが、まったく怖くなくて本当に最高に楽しかったです
キャプテンのジョークもすごく楽しくてずっと笑っていました！
ありがとうございました。

Thank you!!! What a phenomenal experience for my 10 yr old son! He LOVED it!

It was my first time kayaking, and I received thorough explanations before heading out to sea. The waves were higher than I expected, which made it challenging, but I was able to participate enjoyably. I had an adventurous experience, entering caves and passing through rock formations. The snorkeling was beautiful, with plenty of fish around.

初めてのカヤックでしたが、
丁寧に説明していただき海へ出ました。
思ったよりも波が高く大変でしたが、
楽しく参加できました。
洞窟に入ったり、岩の間を通ったりと
冒険のような体験ができました。
シュノーケルも魚がたくさんいて綺麗でした。

My husband and I participated together. It was wonderful to enjoy the view of Waikiki from the sea while having some drinks. We also got to see dolphins and turtles, and the two cool female staff members were amazing! I would love to join again.

主人と二人で参加しました。
お酒をいただきながら海から眺めるワイキキも素敵でした。イルカや亀にも会え　二人のカッコいい女性スタッフさんが最高でしたよ！
また参加したいです。

The weather was nice, and it's no wonder so many people participated. The guide was very happy! The cruise was amazing. I had a hearty lunch as well. I will continue to enjoy Hawaii from tomorrow.

お天気が良く、多くの方が参加されるだけのことは、あります。ガイドのお兄さんがとてもHAPPY
‼️クルーズ最高でした。　ランチもガッツリ頂きました。あすからもハワイを楽しみます。

Big shout out to Scott and his team! We just took our first ever snorkel and my wife does not swim well and is afraid of the water. Scott is a very calm and encouraging person, my wife held on to the float and with the life vest had no worries about sinking. Sure the water was murky today, yet we saw fish, and held a starfish, a sea cucumber, and an urchin. Way cool!

I received reminder emails as needed, which provided reassurance that my reservation was confirmed. Although I was 25 minutes late this time, they waited until the last minute. While being late is not ideal, their flexible response increased my trust in them.
We participated as a group of five, totaling ten people, and the activity took about an hour. Each group had a ride of about ten minutes. Due to significant swaying, those who are prone to motion sickness should definitely take anti-nausea medication.
It was certainly fun, and I can also appreciate the safety measures, including life jackets and support for two people.
Photos are $40. They asked if I wanted one, but there was no hard selling. The minimum tip was understood to be $20, and all five groups gave $20.

リマインドのメールが適宜届きます。ちゃんと予約が入っているという安心感にも繋がりました。今回25分遅刻をしてしまいましたが、ギリギリまで待ってくれました。遅れるのはダメですが、こういった臨機応変な対応も信頼度に繋がりました。
5組10名で参加し、1時間くらいの所要時間です。1組10分くらいのライドでした。横揺れがすごいため、苦手な方は酔い止め必須です。
楽しかったことはもちろんですが、救命胴衣や2名サポートを含め安全性も評価できます。
写真は40ドル。いるか聞かれて、無理な販売はありません。チップは20ドルが最低価格という先方の認識でした。5組とも、20ドルを渡しています。

This time on my solo trip, I went kayaking.
Unfortunately, there were no dolphins, but the views of Hualalai and Mauna Loa in the morning were absolutely beautiful!
The couple who joined me patiently waited for me, who was running a bit late, along with the guide, and I did my best to keep up.
On the way back, WiL helped by connecting my kayak since I was a bit tired.
I want to participate again next time and hope to encounter dolphins!

ひとり旅の今回は、カヤックに。
残念ながらイルカはいなかったけど、朝のフアラライやマウナロアがとても綺麗に見えて最高でした！
一緒に参加のご夫婦も、遅れ気味の私をガイドさんとともにのんびりと待ってくださり、一生懸命ついていきました♪
帰りは少し疲れた私のカヤックをWiLさんが連結してヘルプしてくださいました。
次もまた参加して、今度はイルカに遭遇したいです

I was very nervous before trying parasailing at a height of 150 meters for the first time, but the staff were kind and it was a lot of fun throughout. I didn't feel unsafe and would like to participate again. The motorboat swayed a bit on the waves, so I took motion sickness medication before going.

初めてパラセイリングで150mの高さは乗る前はとてもドキドキでしたが、スタッフ方たちが親切で終始とても楽しかったです。
危ないこともなくまた参加したいです。
モーターボートは時々波にのり揺れます。酔い止めは飲んで行きました。

Best thing we could do !! Very lucky to see turtles and dolphins !!

I was recommended Hanauma Bay as a great spot in Hawaii by a friend, but I learned that reservations are required for entry. Since I can't drive, I was looking for an all-inclusive plan and found this tour.

I had only snorkeled once before, so I was a bit anxious, but the small group and the attentive guidance in Japanese made it a wonderful experience. I was really happy to see sea turtles!

Hanauma Bay has more waves than I expected, so while floating, my body was swaying, and I was glad I took motion sickness medication. (There were others who got seasick as well. I tend to get motion sickness easily, but thanks to the medication, I had no issues at all.)

I heard that it's difficult to reserve entry tickets for Hanauma Bay, so I'm really glad I booked this tour considering that aspect too.

友人からハワイのおすすめの場所としてハナウマ湾を教えてもらいましたが入場に予約が必要とのことで、車も運転できないので全て込み込みのプランを探しておりこのツアーを見つけました。
シュノーケルは一回しか経験がなく少し不安でしたが、日本語で少人数で丁寧に進めてもらい、ウミガメも見ることができて本当に良かったです！
ハナウマ湾は思ったより波があるので、浮いている間に身体が揺れるので酔い止めを服用していってよかったです。(波酔いしてしまっている方もいました。自分もかなり乗り物酔いしやすいですが、薬の服用のおかげで全然問題なかったです)
ハナウマ湾の入場チケットは予約困難らしく、その点も含めてこのツアーを予約してよかったなと思います。

This is a tour I wanted to go on for a long time. Since going individually with THE BUS takes a lot of time, I decided to join this tour.

Upon arrival, I received a tour explanation in Japanese, and during the waiting time, I was able to see horses and take photos.

The movie location tour was great as we traveled while enjoying the magnificent mountains from the bus. It was nice to take pictures with dinosaur bones used in Jurassic World.

The Kaneohe Bay cruise was smooth without feeling seasick, and there was no splashing of seawater (those who don't mind getting wet can sit at the front), allowing us to relax while enjoying the beautiful sea.

However, the explanations were in English, so I couldn't understand much. Also, since I was seated at the very back of the bus on the return trip, it was too cold, and I felt like I might catch a cold.

前から行きたかったツアーです
個人で(THE BUS)行くのは時間もかかるのでこちらに参加させて頂きました

到着すると日本語でツアーの説明を受け、待ち時間に馬を見たり写真を撮ったり出来ます

映画ロケ地巡りはバスから壮大な山々を見ながら周ります
ジェラシック・ワールドで使われた?恐竜の骨などと写真が撮れて良かったです

カネオヘ湾クルーズも酔うほど揺れず、海水がかかる事もなく(濡れても良い方は前方に)、綺麗な海を眺めながらのんびりできました
　　
ただ英語の説明なのでチンプンカンプン
だった事と、復路のバスが1番後ろだった為か、寒すぎて風邪引きそうでした

We had a great transportation to and from the boat. The driver was friendly, pleasant, and knowledgeable about the area.I loved being able to snorkel, swim and just be on the platform. There was musical entertainment on the boat, which was nice on the way to and on the way back from the sandbar. The crew made everything fun and made sure that everyone was safe. I would do it again, for sure, and maybe next time I will have the courage to try the stand up paddle board.

I mistakenly thought this was a plan to kayak in Kahana Valley. The actual content only allows for renting kayaks in Kailua. We had to transport the kayaks to Kahana Valley ourselves, and since we didn't have a rental car that could accommodate them, we gave up on kayaking in Kahana Valley. The staff was very kind, and instead of kayaking, we rented E-bikes and explored the Kaka'ako area. While we should have looked more closely at the reservation details, I think many people might misunderstand based on the title and illustrations. It would be appreciated if there was a note stating that only kayak rentals are available.

カハナ渓谷でカヤックできるプランだと勘違いしました。内容はカイルアでカヤックを借りれるのみ。カハナ渓谷までは自分達でカヤックを運搬しなければならず、積み込みのできるレンタカーもしていなかった為、カハナ渓谷でのカヤックは断念しました。スタッフはとても優しく、カヤックを断念した代わりに、Eバイクをレンタルさせてもらい、カカアコ周辺を散策しました。予約内容を詳しく見ていなかった私達にも落ち度がありますが、タイトルやイラストを見ると、勘違いしてしまう人も多いと思います。カヤックがレンタルできるのみと注意書きをしてもらえれば有難いです。

Our party had a great time. All of the staff was very friendly and ensured we had fun and were safe. The whole experience was amazing.

In the afternoon, the sand wasn't packed down and felt like it was floating in the sea, but I had a great time with various activities! The banana boat was also amazing!

午後の時間帯で、砂はあわられておらず海にぷかぷか浮いている感じでしたが、いろんなアクティビティができて楽しかったです！
バナナボートも最高でした

I had a great time. I'm satisfied!

I read experiences and took motion sickness medication before participating. I was worried seeing someone on the previous boat struggling with seasickness, but thanks to the medication, I was able to enjoy the entire experience until the end.

It was amazing to go higher than I expected and see Waikiki from the sea!

とても楽しかった
満足です！

体験談を読んで酔い止めを飲んで参加しました。
前の船に乗っていた方が船酔いで辛そうにしているのをを見て心配でしたが酔い止めのおかげか最後まで楽しく参加する事が出来ました。

思ったよりも高く上がってワイキキを海から見ることが出来て最高でした！！

The pickup, local guidance, and snorkeling instruction were all great! However, it was a bit disappointing that the visibility was low due to the light rain and waves...

お迎えから、現地案内、シュノーケリング指導、とてもよかったです！しかし、小雨で波があったので、透明度が低く残念。。。

I rode with cheerful staff and a lively group of five American girls. The boat was high-speed, and parasailing offered a great view of Waikiki, which was fun. It was efficient with three people per ride. The Hilton grounds were too vast and felt far away.

陽気なスタッフと、賑やかなアメリカ女子5人組と同乗しました。船もハイスピードで、パラセーリングもワイキキ一望出来て、楽しかったです。
3人づつ乗れて効率的でした。ヒルトン敷地が広すぎて、遠かった

This activity involves flying a sail with a wire while running on a boat, similar to kite flying. You go quite high, but because the sail is large, the descent is slow, and you don't feel that floating sensation in your stomach. The view from above was beautiful and calm, with no swaying left or right except for the wind, but looking down brought a considerable sense of fear due to the height.

The check-in was quick, just a signature, but the waiting time before starting was about 30 minutes. We went quite far offshore, and with two people in each of the five groups, we each flew for about 10 minutes in turn. The boat keeps moving during the trip back and forth and while the other groups are flying, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you are prone to getting seasick.

On the way back, as the wire is reeled in, each group gets partially dipped in the sea, but we ended up completely soaked, so wearing clothes that can get wet is advisable. Three of the participants were travelers from the mainland United States, and two groups, including ours, were travelers from Japan.

凧揚げをするように船で走りながらワイヤー付きのセイルを飛ばすアクティビティです。
かなり高いところまで行きますがセイルが大きいため、降下時もゆっくりでお腹がふわっとなる感覚はありません。
上空も左右に振られず風以外は穏やかで美しい景色を見れましたが、足元を見ると高さで中々の恐怖感がありました。
受付はサインだけなのですぐに終わりましたが、始まるまでの待ち時間は30分くらい。
船でかなり沖合まで出て、2人×5組いたのでそれぞれ順番に10分程飛びました。
行き帰りと他の組が飛んでいる間、船は走り続けますので少しでも乗り物で酔う人は酔い止めを飲んでおくことをおすすめします。
ワイヤーを巻き取って戻ってくる途中、どの組も海に半分だけ漬けられるのですが、我々だけ全身浸かってしまいずぶ濡れになりましたので、濡れてもいい服装がおすすめです。
参加者は3組がアメリカ本土からの旅行者で、我々を含む2組は日本からの旅行者でした。

Since the local weather can vary, I arrived on-site and checked the weather forecast, making my reservation two days in advance. The arrangements on the day went smoothly, and the people I participated with said, "I want to ride this again when I come back to Hawaii!" I was really happy to hear that since it was an activity I suggested.

You can see the familiar shape of Diamond Head and even get to view the backside, which offers a fresh perspective of its shape. The cheerful staff and the excitement of the other guests made it a fun, American-style experience. I will definitely come back to ride again!

現地の天気もあるので、現地入りして、天気予報を確認して2日前に予約しました。
当日の段取りもスムーズで一緒に参加した方からも、またハワイにきたら乗りたいな！といってもらえました。自分が提案したアクティビティだったので、喜んでもらえて嬉しかったです。
よく見るダイヤモンドヘッドの形から、ぐるっと裏側まで回ってもらえるので、違ったダイヤモンドヘッドの形まで見えますので新鮮です。
陽気なスタッフさんと、同乗したお客さんのテンションもアメリカらしく楽しかったです。
また乗りに戻ってきます！！

Great place, the whole staff was very friendly and knowledgeable, thr property was very well maintained . Busses were clean and the drivers were very good.all in all Great place to go to and reasonably cheap for all they offer.

For my husband and I who were not sure if we were comfortable in deeper water, this snorkel was perfect and shallow with plenty of fish!

The Hanalei area was our favorite, we were so happy we got out on the river!
