All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

This was our second family trip to Hawaii, and while we were debating what activities to do, we found this one. After checking with the kids, they seemed excited, so we decided to sign up. Unfortunately, it was cloudy on the day of our activity, but we had a great time nonetheless. My eldest son, who is not fond of heights, said it was a bit scary, but my daughter and younger son, who is in elementary school, loved it and wanted to do it again.

I thought I would feel more scared when going up, but I ascended smoothly and didn't feel scared at all. It was a great opportunity to see Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the ocean direction, something I had never experienced before.

We were also lucky enough to see whales from the boat. My eldest son was right above them, so he got to see the whales from the sky.

The staff were kind, and we were able to enjoy the experience thoroughly.

2回目の家族ハワイ旅行であり、今回は何のアクティビティをしようかと悩んでいたところ、こちらを見つけました。子供達に確認をとり、楽しそうということで、申し込みをしました。当日はあいにくの曇りでしたが、とても楽しむことができました。高いところが苦手な長男はちょっと怖かったと言っていましたが、長女、小学生の次男はまたやりたい。ととても気に入っていました。
私も上に上がる時にもっと怖いかと思いましたが、スムーズに上がっていき、全く怖さは感じませんでした。海の方角からのワイキキビーチや、ダイヤモンドヘッドを見る機会は今までなかったため、とても良かったです。
今回運良く、ボートから鯨を見ることもできました。長男はちょうど上にいた為、空から鯨の様子を見れたということです。
スタッフの方も優しく、楽しんで体験することができました。

The staff was very kind, and they were friendly and funny, which made for a great experience. My 6-year-old child also participated and had a lot of fun. I would like to request their services again when I come next time.

とても親切な対応、優しくて面白いスタッフさん達でとても良い体験ができました。6歳の子供も参加して楽しんでました。また今度も来た時はお願いしたいです。

Under the blue sky, I was able to experience the best SUP yoga with very little wave action. I was able to do various poses, but I ended up falling during the final tree pose 💦. The meeting place was hard to find, and I got lost, but I had a great time and I'm glad I participated.

青空の下、波も余りなく最高のsupヨガを体験できました。色々なポーズができたけれど、最後の立木のポーズではジャポンしてしまった💦
集合場所がわかりにくく迷いましたが、
楽しくでき参加して良かったです。

Convenient, smooth, friendly staff. Easy to book and reserve. Perfect way to start your morning on this sunrise cruise

The couple enjoyed canoeing together, and even the wife, who can't swim, had a great time snorkeling in the sea! The tour participants helped each other with getting on and off the canoe and stand-up paddleboarding, creating a lively atmosphere that transcended national borders.

夫婦でカヌーに乗ったり、泳げない妻もシュノーケリングで海を満喫！ツアー者同士でカヌーやサップの乗り降り等で助け合いながら、国を超えて大いに盛り上がりました。

The parasailing at a height of 150 cm was incredibly fun. The local staff were also unique in their approach, making the experience very enjoyable and friendly.

高さ150cmのパラセイリングがめちゃくちゃ楽しかった。現地スタッフの対応もユニークもあり、とても楽しく親切だった。

I went with my grandchild. The weather wasn't great, and the sea in January was cold. There was some rocking, and just when my first grader started to feel a little seasick, we spotted a whale, which was incredibly exciting!

The staff had a wonderful atmosphere. I only had a card with me, but I ordered juice anyway... However, they responded with such kindness and excellent service that I want to give back next time.

孫と2人で乗りました。天気がイマイチで1月の海は寒かったです。揺れもあり小1の孫が少し酔い出した頃にくじらが見えて大感動！

スタッフの人の雰囲気がすごく良かった。
カードしか持っていなかったのに、
ジュース頼んじゃって…でもきちんと優しい素晴らしい対応してくれたから、次はお返しがしたいくらいです。

I think it can be summed up in one word: amazing. This time, I experienced multiple activities on the Big Island, Maui, and Oahu, but without a doubt, the most fun was this tour.

- I chose a plan that allowed me to experience both snorkeling and snuba. There were about 20 participants on the boat, and around 80% of them opted for this plan. The water clarity around Molokini Island was fantastic, and it would be a shame to just stick to snorkeling.
- I believe anyone can do snuba as long as they listen carefully to the pre-activity instructions.
- We were able to see whales a few times while on the boat heading to Molokini Island.
- The guide was wonderful, and their attentiveness and ability to energize the group were top-notch. Many of the other crew members were also a lot of fun.
- Since the guide was in English, it might be challenging for those who aren't proficient in English.
- The rental for a wetsuit is $10. Additionally, snorkeling and snuba at Turtle Town require an extra $50 payment. Both payments were made in cash after getting off the boat (definitely worth it).

最高の一言に尽きると思います。今回私はハワイ島→マウイ島→オアフ島の3か所で複数アクティビティを体験しましたが、間違いなく1番楽しかったのがこのツアーでした。

・シュノーケルとスヌーバの両方を体験可能なプランにしました。船内には20人程度の参加者がいましたが、8割程度がこのプランでした。モロキニ島水域の透明度は素晴らしく、シュノーケリングで終わらせるのはもったいないと思います
・スヌーバは事前の説明さえちゃんと聞いていれば誰でも出来ると思います
・モロキニ島に向かう船上でクジラも数回見ることができました
・ガイドさんがまた素晴らしく、気の配り方や盛り上げ方も最高でした。他のクルーも楽しい方が多かったです
・英語ガイドさんなので、英語がからっきしの方は難しいかも知れません
・ウェットスーツ貸し出しは10USDです。また、タートルタウンでのシュノーケリング・スヌーバは追加で50USD払う必要があります。いずれも船を降りた後に現金で支払いでした（支払う価値ありです）

We participated in a tour that included a shuttle service to Hanauma Bay and a snorkeling set, with three people including a 12-year-old child. The pickup time was early in the morning. It was still dark outside, and I was worried about being out so early, but shortly after arriving, dawn broke. We were able to see a wonderful sunrise, which was the perfect start to the day.

Snorkeling was first thing in the morning, and there were plenty of fish. Although there were times during the day when it was cloudy, it didn't matter, and we still had a great time seeing lots of fish.

On this day, there were no other Japanese participants in the tour besides us. However, that wasn't an issue at all.

Additionally, we could borrow life jackets on the spot by asking the tour staff. Please note that these are cash only.

We considered renting a car to get there, but I think it was better to avoid the hassle of reservations and enjoy the convenience.

I would definitely like to participate in this tour again.

ハナウマベイシャトルサービスシュノーケルセットのツアーに、12歳の子供を含む３人で参加。
ピックアップの時間は早朝。
まだ外は暗く、こんなに朝早く？と心配になりましたが、到着して間もなく夜明け。素晴らしい朝焼けを見る事ができて、最高の一日のスタートでした。

シュノーケリングも朝イチで、魚が沢山いました。日中曇りになる時間も有りましたが、
それでも問題なく、沢山のお魚を見ることができて楽しかったです。

ツアーは、この日は、日本人は私達以外いませんでした。だからといって問題はないです。

また、ライフジャケットも、ツアーの方に言えばその場で借りる事ができました。
これらは、現金のみになります。

レンタカーを借りて行く事も考えましたが、
便利さと、予約などの手間が省けてよかったと思ってます。

また、参加したいツアーです。

We participated as a family of three, and the experience of looking down at the city and the sea from such a high place was refreshing. We were very satisfied. Since the photos didn't turn out well, it might be better not to ask for them.

家族3人で参加しましたが、遥か高いところから街や海を眺める体験は爽快でした。大満足です。写真はちゃんと撮れているのないので、頼まない方がいいかも。

The weather was nice, which allowed us to see some very beautiful scenery! It was a really enjoyable experience.

The staff is accustomed to dealing with Japanese customers, but the explanations will be in English. However, during the boat ride, there are also explanations in Japanese, so I think it would be reassuring to pay attention to those as well.

You can have photos taken during the experience for an additional fee, and since they took many pictures, it became a great memory. I definitely recommend requesting this!

天気が良かったことも幸いし、非常に良い景色が見られました！とても楽しい体験でした。
スタッフの方は日本人の対応にも慣れている方ではありますが、説明は英語になります。船で移動中に流れる説明では日本語でも説明があるので、そちらも注意して聞いていた方が安心して臨めるかと思います。
別料金で体験中の写真を撮っていただくことができるのですが、たくさん撮っていただけていい思い出になったため、ぜひお願いすることをおすすめします！

Although it was just a shuttle service, I really appreciated the effort to help us get in early to Hanauma Bay, which requires a specified entry time.

送迎だけですが、入場時間の指定が必要なハナウマベイへ早く入れるためにがんばってもらえて、とても助かりました。

My first parasailing experience!! The view of Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach from up high was so beautiful! The staff at the shop were kind and fun, making it an enjoyable experience.

初めてのパラセーリング！！高いところから見るダイヤモンドヘッド、ワイキキビーチとても綺麗でした！
お店の人も親切で面白く楽しめました。

On this day, the water level was deep, and when I got off the boat, the water was up to my chest. I was a bit disappointed because I had imagined a white sandy beach. However, I switched gears and decided to try banana boating for the first time in my 60s! I screamed with excitement after a long time, and it was so much fun. They also took me to a spot where there were turtles. Next time, I want to go when the sandy beach is visible.

この日の水位は深く、船から降りると胸まで水がありました。
白い砂浜を想像していたので、ちょっとガッカリでした。
気持ちを切り替えて、60代で初のバナナボートに挑戦！
久しぶりにキャーキャー叫んで、とても楽しかったです。
亀のいるポイントにも連れて行ってくれました。
次は砂浜の出る時に行きたいです。

Our family of six had a great day on the paddle and hike to Secret Falls. Our guide was Harrison and he was amazing. Fun, helpful, and gave us all kinds of cool facts and stories about the flora and fauna and people of the area. He even got a bird to eat a worm out of my daughter’s hand! The falls were huge and beautiful. An absolutely great day!

I experienced this with my mother, who is almost 60 years old! It was great to have the experience of flying in the sky. We were also able to see Diamond Head! The guide was funny, and we had a lot of fun, haha.

We chose the 1,000 feet option, but I wasn't scared at all due to the height. I was surprised by the swaying of the boat that led the parasailing.

We took an Uber taxi to the meeting place, which cost about $10. Since our session started at 8:00, we made sure to arrive by 7:30.

60歳手前の母と2人で体験しました！
空を飛ぶ経験ができてとても良かったです。ダイアモンドヘッドも見れました！
またガイドのお兄さんも面白く、とても楽しかったです笑
1000フィートにしましたが、高さによる怖さは全然なかったです。パラセーリングを率いる船の揺れが伝わるので、そこはびっくりしました。

集合場所まではUberタクシーを利用して約10ドルで行きました。
8:00からの回だったので、7:30に間に合うように行きました。

I have gone on several excursions in my travel experiences. This excursion was extremely organized, the people were remarkably friendly and the amount of activities to keep you engaged were fantastic.

I was worried about seasickness, but it ended safely. I had some anxiety since it was my first experience, but it was the best experience. My wife was filming videos on her smartphone, but I didn't have the luxury to do that.

船酔いを心配してましたが、無事終了。初めての経験で不安はありましたが、最高の経験でした。嫁はスマホで動画撮影をしてましたが、私はそこまでの余裕はなく。

The crew and especially UA gave our family such a memorable experience. Highly recommend over the boat tours. Experience native Hawaiian culture through those that can share it best.

We had a wonderful family trip! The experience was smooth and enjoyable, and the crews were exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout. Highly recommend for families looking for a relaxing and fun getaway!

My high school daughter participated in a group lesson by herself. She was assigned to a group of three with one instructor who kindly taught even beginners, and she was able to ride some big waves! She came back very satisfied. She also saw a sea turtle. It was her first trip to Hawaii, and it was a very valuable experience. Thank you very much.

高校生の娘がひとりでグループレッスンに参加しました。3人グループに1人のインストラクターが付いて初心者にも優しく教えてくださり、大きめの波にも乗れた！と大満足で帰ってきました。ウミガメも見れたそうです。初めてのハワイ旅行でとても貴重な体験をさせていただきました。ありがとうございました。

The hosts were knowledgeable, accommodating, and so kind. We loved the stress free experience.

I tried parasailing at 150 meters. Unfortunately, the weather was bad, but it was fun. I was also able to purchase photos taken while I was flying.

パラセーリング150mに挑戦しました。あいにく天気は悪かったけど、楽しかったです。
飛んでるさな中の写真も購入することもできました

I participated in early December, and unfortunately, the weather was quite chilly and rainy, but I still had a great time. There were beautiful coral reefs nearby, and fish were swimming right in front of me. Just peeking into the water was captivating, and while enjoying other activities, time flew by quickly. During the round trip to the sandbar, there was also a performance by the crew, and the captain and crew's stories were entertaining as well.

参加日は12月初旬あいにく肌寒く、雨も降るイマイチな天候でしたがそれでも存分に楽しめました。
綺麗なサンゴ礁が近くにあり、目の前を魚が回遊しています。海中を覗くだけで夢中になれますし、他のアクティビティも堪能していると、あっという間に時間がなくなります。
サンドバーまでの往復中も、クルーの演奏もあり、また船長やクルーたちのお話も面白かったです。

I had signed up for a clear kayak and snorkeling experience, but due to the possibility of rain, I was given the option to cancel at the last minute or switch to a regular kayak. Since I had already arranged a rental car from Waikiki to Haleiwa and everything was planned, I couldn't cancel. As a result, I ended up with just the regular kayak for two hours, which was quite boring. In the end, the weather improved on the day, and it didn't rain, plus the waves weren't high, but I still couldn't do the clear kayak and snorkeling.

Additionally, I received a text the day before asking me to look for a white truck, and since the company operated with just one truck, there was no office building at the meeting point. The way it was described during the booking made it seem like there would be a building, which caused quite a bit of confusion. I was told that if I came in the summer, I could do the clear kayak and snorkeling, but I wanted to combine it with the Honolulu Marathon, so I came in the winter. If it says that clear kayaking and snorkeling are available, I really hoped they would do their best to provide those activities.

申し込んだクリアカヤックとシュノーケリングが出来ず、雨が降るかもということで直前にキャンセルするかレギュラーカヤックにするかの選択肢を出され、ワイキキからハレイワへのレンタルカーも用意してすべて計画済の後だったのでキャンセルするわけにもいかず、クリアカヤックとシュノーケリングの料金でレギュラーカヤックだけとなりそれが2時間で退屈なものとなった。結局当日天気は持ち直し雨も降らず波も高くなかったがクリアカヤックとシュノーケリングはしてもらえなかった。また前日にショートメールが来て白いトラックを探してくれということで、トラック1台で運用してる会社だったので、集合場所に事務所的な建物はなく、申込時は建物があるような書き方だったので、かなり混乱すると思います。夏に来ればクリアカヤックとシュノーケリングが出来るのにと言われたが、ホノルルマラソンと合わせたかったので冬に来たが、クリアカヤックとシュノーケリングが出来ると書くのであれば、極力クリアカヤックとシュノーケリングを実施してほしかった。

We were blessed with beautiful weather, and while paragliding, we had an amazing view of Waikiki and Diamond Head right beneath us. The operator was a veteran who skillfully maneuvered the motorboat by reading the wind, allowing us to dip our feet into the ocean and enjoy the experience. A couple in their 70s.

晴天に恵まれ、パラセイリング中はワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドも足元に見え最高な気分になりました。操作員もベテランで、風を読みモーターボートを操り、足だけを海に浸けたりし、楽しませてくれました。７０代夫婦

Last time it was 120 meters, but this time we did it at 150 meters. A difference of 30 meters is quite significant. Next time, we'll also go for 150 meters. Fortunately, on the way out to sea, we were able to do some whale watching.

前回は高さ120ｍでしたが今回は150ｍでやりました。30m違いは結構あります。次回も150mにします。ラッキーのことに沖合に出る途中ホエールウォッチング出来ました。

The sandbar itself was stunning, and the live Hawaiian music added a perfect island vibe. Equipment was clean and easy to use, and the crew provided helpful tips to make the most of each activity.

I really had a great time and felt wonderful; I wanted to keep flying forever! My rebellious son was also very satisfied. The staff were nice, which made it easy to enjoy myself.

本当に楽しく気持ち良くて、ずっと飛んで？いたかったです！
反抗期の息子も大満足でした。
スタッフの方も良い方で安心して楽しめました。

My spouse and I tried kayaking for the first time in Hawaii on our wedding anniversary! The guide was incredibly kind, handsome, and fluent in Japanese. He taught us how to operate the kayak with great care, and we were blessed with beautiful weather, making it the best tour ever! Even as a couple approaching our sixties, thanks to our wonderful guide, we created unforgettable and extremely fun memories. Thank you very much!

夫婦で、結婚記念日に訪れたハワイで、カヤック初挑戦！
ガイドさんが、とっても親切で、ハンサム、おまけに日本語もペラペラ、カヤックの操作も丁寧に教えて下さって、お天気にも恵まれて、最高のツアーでした！
還暦間近の夫婦でも、素晴らしいガイドさんのお陰で、めちゃくちゃくちゃ楽しい思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。
