The staff on the day were all bright and kind, providing excellent service. However, upon arrival, the tide was almost at its peak... I couldn't see the sandbar like in the pictures, and the water was up to my waist. It's natural for the sea to have tides, but I think it would be helpful to have an explanation of the tide times based on the season when making a reservation. The sea was very beautiful, so I believe those who are mainly interested in snorkeling can still have a great time even at high tide!
当日のスタッフさんはみなさん明るく親切な方たちで対応◎でした。
しかし、到着時はほぼ満潮状態…写真のようなサンドバーを見れず腰のあたりまで海水がありました。
海に潮の満ち引きがあるのは当然なのですが…時期によっての満ち引きの時間帯の説明が予約時にあるといいかなぁと思いました。
海はとてもきれいだったのでシュノーケリングがメインの方なら満潮時でも十分楽しめると思います!

On a Saturday in September, I participated with my family of three. Since it’s a popular tour, the shuttle bus was full. When we arrived at the sandbar, the weather was clear, and we enjoyed a wonderful view. You can take photos while walking (a waterproof cover is necessary). By the way, on this day, the water was up to my waist, which was a bit surprising. Soon, the clouds started to look ominous, and we had a sudden downpour. Still, with lunch included, we were able to see sea turtles while snorkeling, and during our free time, we got to try stand-up paddleboarding (SAP). Overall, it was a thoroughly enjoyable tour. Since it’s a tour aimed at Japanese people, the guide kept things lively and created a homely atmosphere on the boat. I think it depends on the weather, but if you can enjoy this view, you definitely won’t regret it. If it rains, it can get cold, so while there are life jackets available, it’s reassuring to have clothes that you can wear while getting in the water.
9月の土曜日、家族3人で参加しました。人気のツアーなので送迎車は一杯でした。サンドバーに着いた時は晴れていて、素晴らしい景色を堪能できました。歩きながらスマホで撮影できます。(防水カバーは必要です。)ちなみに、この日は腰あたりまで海水があったので、ちょっと意外でした。ほどなく雲行きが怪しくなり突然のスコール。それでもランチが付いて、シュノーケリングでウミガメも見れて、フリータイムでSAP(スタンドアップパドル)にも乗れて、ツアーとしては十分に楽しむことができました。日本人向けのツアーなので、ガイドの人がいろいろと盛り上げて、船内ではアットホームな雰囲気にしてくれます。天気で左右されるとは思いますが、この景色を味わえるなら、絶対、損はしないと思います。もし、雨が降れば寒いので、ライフジャケットはありますが、着たまま入れる服装があると安心です。
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Thank you very much for participating. It was sunny, followed by a sudden downpour. I hope you enjoyed the unique weather that Hawaii has to offer. The view of the sandbar in the rain shows a different, beautiful side, doesn't it? I'm glad you were able to see some turtles as well! We all sincerely look forward to your next visit.

Absolutely a paradise of a sea!!
I think even those who are not good at swimming can enjoy it since you can stand.
There were even families with babies.
The shallowest part was about knee-deep.
For those who can swim, snorkeling allowed us to see sea turtles, and if you come to Oahu, you definitely shouldn't miss this!!
The snacks were delicious too.
まさしく天国の海!!
泳ぎ苦手な人でも足がつくので楽しめると思います。
赤ちゃん連れもいたくらい。

I participated in a manta snorkeling tour for the first time. I'm not a strong swimmer and it was my first time snorkeling, but it was fine since I just held onto something like a kickboard and floated. The guide was very kind and supportive.
You can rent a bodysuit on-site for $10, and when I participated, everyone rented one. The boat ride to the manta viewing spot had quite a bit of waves, so I recommend motion sickness medication for those who are prone to seasickness. I took some beforehand as well. We were able to see a beautiful sunset from the boat on the way there.
As for the mantas, many of them gathered, and we were able to see them flipping in the water. The guide mentioned that sometimes you might not see any, so I felt lucky to see so many!
On the way back, the boat's lights were dimmed, and we returned while looking at the starry sky. They served us hot chocolate, but it gets cold, so I think it's a good idea to remember to bring a towel.
It was challenging, but I had a very valuable and wonderful experience, and I was extremely satisfied!
初めてマンタのシュノーケリングツアーに参加しました。私は泳ぎも苦手でシュノーケリング自体初めてだったのですが、ビート板のようなものにつかまって浮いているだけなので、問題ありませんでした。ガイドのお姉さんも優しくサポートしてくださいます。
現地でボディスーツ($10)を借りることもでき、私が参加した時は全員借りていました。
マンタを見れるスポットまでの船は波がかなりあり、酔いやすい人は酔い止めをおすすめします。私も事前に酔い止めを飲んでいきました。行きの船内からはサンセットがきれいに見ることができました。
肝心なマンタですが、たくさんのマンタが集まってきて、宙返りもたくさんみることができました。ガイドさんも見れないこともあるとおっしゃっていたので、たくさん見ることができてラッキーでした!
帰りは船内の照明を落として、星空を見ながら帰りました。ホットチョコレートを出していただきましたが、冷えるので、タオルの準備を忘れないほうが良いと思います。
ハードでしたが、とても貴重で素敵な経験ができ大満足でした!
ALOHA!

I took my son, daughter, and my son's two friends on this cruise for my son's birthday and they had a blast! The crew got them sized for their snorkels and fins and they had so much fun swimming with all the fish in the clear water! The kids loved jumping on the inflatable trampoline, going down the slide, and especially loved jumping off the top deck of the boat! They raced each other on kayaks and the stand up paddle boards and had tons of fun. The crew were very accommodating and friendly! They even had snacks and drinks for everyone, which the kids devoured. My kids and my son's friends had a memorable day in the water and I got some great pictures to remember his birthday!
Thanks for leaving a lovely review! We all had a great time, hope to see you guys again!

This was SUCH a fun experience for my kids and their friends (ages 7 - 12). They got to do all five activities and didn't have any wait at all for 4 (there was a short wait for the stand-up paddle, but because there were four other things for them to have fun doing, they didn't notice at all). The crew was fabulous. They let the kids jump off the boat from different parts and had great snacks that the kids gobbled up. We asked them what they liked the best and they said they loved all the activities.
The stand-up paddling was probably the biggest hit. The snorkel and kayak and jumping off the boat (extra LOL) was next. Slide and trampoline after that. Since they're smaller/lighter, it was harder for them to jump on the trampoline -- adults will be able to make it bounce more. But yes, over all, AMAZING experience. Just a reminder that the harbor is paid parking so make sure to be ready for that. Hope you all enjoy it like we did! :)

The morning of the tour that I had been looking forward to so much!
To my surprise, there was unusually heavy rain around Waikiki for this time of year! As I waited for the shuttle, the bus arrived.
In the rain, the bus headed to Kaneohe Bay. On the way, the rain gradually turned into a light drizzle. (The bus seat heater is warm, so if it gets too hot, it's a good idea to let the driver know! lol)
Upon arriving at the port, a female guide entered the bus. Jamie, who speaks fluent Japanese, provided explanations that were both appropriate and super interesting! As my worries about the light rain and what would happen with the boat faded away, the weather also seemed to clear up!
We listened to an explanation of the day's schedule on the boat, and it felt like a comedy show, with everyone smiling. In about 10 minutes, we arrived at the heavenly sea sandbar! At first, everyone got off the boat to float around and walk in the beautiful sea.
Before long, we split into snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding groups, and off we went for snorkeling!!
There were so many fish! While spotting a coral wall on the right side, I could see a sea turtle right below me without needing to squint! I was so excited! (Everyone wanted to see it, causing a bit of a traffic jam while floating. Be careful not to kick anyone nearby, so we can move smoothly!)
As we moved a little further, surprisingly, a sea turtle started to float towards us!! I interpreted it as saying "Hello!" and my excitement peaked again!
The snorkeling lasted about 10 minutes round trip, and the staff were there to ensure our safety, so if you're someone who thinks, "I can't swim, and I might be scared..." I definitely recommend giving it a try!
After snorkeling, it was time for lunch. Oh my, it was delicious! There was a variety of food, drinks, and desserts, and I was very satisfied. After filling our stomachs, we had some free time.
From the anxiety before leaving the hotel, I ended up thinking it was great that I went, and I definitely want to go again!
Thank you so much! 🎶
もの凄く楽しみにしていたツアー当日の朝!
なんとワイキキ周辺は時期的には珍しい大雨!
「ツアー中止かなぁ…」と送迎を待っていると、バスのお迎えが。
雨の中、バスはカネオヘ湾へ。向かう途中から徐々に小雨になってきました。(バスのシートヒーターが温かいので、暑くなってきたら、運転手さんに言った方がよいですよ!w)
港に着き、ガイドの女性が案内でバスの中に。日本語がペラペラのジェイミーさん。また、この方の説明が適切かつ超面白い♫小雨の不安や、これから船はどうなるのかなんて不安が吹っ切れると同時に空模様もモヤモヤが吹っ切れたように回復!!
船上で1日の流れの説明を聞くのですが、すでに漫談状態で、皆んなニコニコ。10分程度で天国の海サンドバーへ到着!初めは、みんな船から降りてプカプカ浮いたり、綺麗な海を歩いたり。
程なくして、シュノーケリングと、サップ組に別れ、いざシュノーケリングに!!
お魚沢山いるーーー!右側にサンゴの壁を見つつ、良く目を凝らす必要も無いくらいにウミガメが真下に!テンションMAX状態です。(皆んな見たくてプカプカ浮いた状態の渋滞が起きますw近くに人がいると軽く蹴られたりするのでスムーズに進みましょうw)
また少し進むと、な、なんとウミガメさんから私達の方にプカァ〜と向かってくるではないですか!!「コンニチワ〜」って言ってくれたと勝手に解釈でまたもテンションMAX!
シュノーケリングも往復10分位で、スタッフの方々がしっかりとガードしてくれているので、「泳げないし、怖いかも…」程度の方は是非挑戦した方が良いですよ!
シュノーケリングの後は食事タイム。あらま、これがまた美味しかったです!食べ物飲み物、デザート色々あり大満足。お腹いっぱいの後は自由行動。
ホテル出発前の不安から、行って良かった、また必ず行きたい!と思わせてくれたツアーでした!

This was my second time participating in this tour. I usually join the morning sessions, including those from other companies, but this time I thought I’d try the 12 PM session. Just like last time, the staff were all very pleasant. It’s a reliable tour. The visibility wasn’t great this time, but we saw more than five turtles and a decent number of fish. It lasts about two and a half hours, and the fact that it departs right from the heart of Waikiki makes it highly recommended for enjoying such an experience just a bit offshore. I also appreciated that they provide fins along with the snorkeling set.
このツアーには2回目の参加でした。他社のも含めいつも朝イチの方にさんかしてたのですが、たまには午後にしてみようかと今回は12時の回にしてみました。前回同様スタッフはみなさん感じよく。安定感あるツアーです。今回は透明度が今ひとつでしたが、亀さんは5匹以上、魚はまぁまぁいました。2時間半程度で、しかもワイキキど真ん中からのツアー、ワイキキからちょっと沖にでてこれだけ楽しめる、というのは変わらずおすすめ!シュノーケルセットに加えてフィンも貸してくれるのも結構うれしいポイントです。

I ended up not being able to see dolphins in the ocean. It was my second time seeing dolphins, but it was my first time at Dolphin Junior High. This time it was very hectic, going in and out repeatedly. Since the dolphin tour is with nature, I think it's understandable whether you see them or not, but the level of satisfaction does change. I think it might be good to consider that point carefully.
イルカを海の中で見ることが出来ずに終わりました。イルカは2回目でしたが、イルカ中学は初めてでした。今回はとてもせわしなくて、ハイ入って、出て〜の繰り返し。イルカのツアーは自然相手なので、見られても見られなくても仕方ないと思いますが、やはり満足度は変わりますね。その点をよく考慮してみてもよいかと思います。

Due to time constraints, we reached our destination before sunset, and since I was sitting on the right side of the boat, the instructor took some photos for me, but I was unable to see it directly, which was disappointing. The boat ride felt like a roller coaster, both fun and a bit uncomfortable. Finally, while trying to contain my excitement, we went into the water, but despite waiting, the manta rays did not appear. Instead, there were people stirring up the plankton with their feet. However, at the very end, I was able to see a manta ray doing a somersault. It was truly moving. But now, I realized that I didn't get a commemorative photo. Thank you to all the instructors for your help. Mahalo!
時間的に、船で目的地に着く前にサンセットになったのですが右舷側に座っていたので、インストラクターさんが写真を撮ってくれましたが、直接見ることができず、残念でした。
そして、船の旅はジェットコースターの様で、楽しくもあり、苦しくも有りといったところでした。
いよいよ、ワクワクするキモチを抑えつつ海の中へと、ところが待てど暮らせどマンタは現れません。
それどころか、集まってきたプランクトンを足で掻き回してくれる人も有り。
でも、最後の最後にマンタの宙返りを見ることが出来ました。

This is why people come to Hawaii for a vacation and adventure. Today we had an awesome time from start to finish. Both Laura and T. from Ohio ( forgive not knowing how to spell his name) were absolutely the best. Very easygoing, sociable, and very informative about the excursion, the ecosystem and all it encompasses. We could see the passion they both have for the environment. They worked well as a team, always putting safety first.
As for the the actual excursion... Pickup was on time, the briefing was short but thorough. And off we went. We were towed out to a point (to save time) then we were cut loose to follow our leader out to our destination. Once there, they reviewed the do's and don'ts regarding the ecosystem and its inhabitants. We snorkeled for over an hour while our guides educated us about all the different things we were seeing. Once done we kayaked back the the shore, rinsed off and sat down for an impressive lunch. (thanks to the cook) YUMMY
Sad to say it was over... highly recommend this tour, company and crew!!!

I participated in the morning sandbar tour and explored Kailua. The water level at the sandbar was a bit high, around waist-deep, but it wasn't a concern. During snorkeling, I was able to see sea turtles, and the scenery was very beautiful. I wonder if the water level varies seasonally.
I also enjoyed exploring Kailua thoroughly in the afternoon. It was a very sunny day, but the cold water service on the way back was a great help.
The staff members were the friendliest and most pleasant I encountered during my stay. I highly recommend this experience. I'm considering joining the early morning tour next time.
朝イチではないら午前中のサンドバー+カイルア散策に参加。
サンドバーは水位が腰くらいで少し高めでしたが、気になりませんでした。シュノーケリングではウミガメを見ることもでき、とても綺麗な風景でした。水位については季節的なものもあるのでしょうか。
カイルア散策も午後から十分に楽しむことができました。とても日差しが強い日でしたが帰りに冷たい水のサービスがあり助かりました。
スタッフの方々は今回の滞在期間中で1番親しみやすく、感じが良い方ばかりでした。
とてもオススメです。次は朝イチのツアーにも参加してみようか検討中です。

I suddenly participated with my one-year-old grandchild. When I called to confirm the day before, I was told that it was fine for babies to join. It was a very kind tour. I would like to participate again.
急遽1歳の孫を連れて参加。前日に電話で確認をしたところ、赤ちゃんも参加大丈夫とのことでした。とても優しいツアーです。また参加したいです。

I finally participated in the sandbar that I had been curious about every time I went to Hawaii but had never visited before! Although I couldn't see the sandy beach like in pictures or on TV, that's due to the tides, so it can't be helped. Still, the shallowest part was about knee-deep, which felt strange since it was in the middle of the ocean. During our free time, I skipped snorkeling and focused solely on stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). It was so much fun to stand on the board and paddle for the first time! Turtles also came close to the boat, and they were adorable. The brunch was incredibly delicious! This became my favorite memory from this trip to Hawaii. I'm glad I participated.
ハワイに行く度に気にはなりつつ行った事が無かったサンドバー。今回遂に参加しました!テレビや写真で見るような砂浜は見れませんでしたが、潮の関係なのでこれは仕方ないですね。それでも1番浅い所は膝ぐらいで海の真ん中なのに不思議な感じでした。自由時間はシュノーケルはパスしてひたすらSUPです。ボードに初めて立てて漕げて楽しかった〜。亀も船の周りに寄ってきてくれて可愛かったです。そしてブランチがとっても美味しかった!今回のハワイでの1番の思い出になりました。参加して良かったです。
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Thank you very much for joining us. What a wonderful photo of the sandbar! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the sandbar with such great weather. We all look forward to welcoming you again.

We participated as a couple. Knowing that the sandbar's experience depends on the tides, we researched the low tide days in August back in April and made our reservation. Due to time constraints, we couldn't experience the magazine-like sandbar with water levels up to our knees, and the weather was cloudy, which was a bit disappointing. However, as soon as we arrived, a small honu greeted us, and we were very moved.
During snorkeling, we were surrounded by three large honu resting on the coral and colorful fish. We also got to try stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), which we had been interested in for a while, and enjoyed a lunch that was plentiful and delicious, allowing us to forget the stress of Japan in an instant. (The shrimp was especially tasty!)
The crew was fluent in Japanese and very cheerful, and there were thoughtful arrangements and menus for families with small children, making it a tour that families can enjoy with peace of mind. As a couple, we accidentally mixed up the lunch order for different boats, but they responded with a smile saying, "No Problem!" which has become a nice memory for us.
On the round-trip flight, we saw honu, and we even encountered real honu in the beautiful sea, making this trip to Hawaii all about honu.
夫婦での参加です。サンドバーは潮の満ち引きがポイントと言うことを知り、4月時点でに8月の干潮日を調べて申し込みました。時間の関係もあり、参加日は膝下程度の水位で雑誌のようなサンドバーを体験することはできず天気も曇りで少々残念でしたが、到着するとすぐに小さなホヌが出迎えてくれ、とても感激してしまいました。
シュノーケリングでは、サンゴで休む3匹の大きなホヌや色とりどりの魚たちに囲まれ、以前から興味があったSUPも夫婦で体験でき、更におかわり自由な量と味もバッチリなランチを楽しみ、一瞬にして日本のストレスを忘れることができました。(…特にエビは美味しかったなぁ。)
クルーは皆日本語が堪能でとても愉快、小さなお子さんでも楽しめるような工夫やメニューも見受けられ、家族連れで安心して楽しめるツアーだと思います。うっかり夫婦の私たちは、船別のランチの順番を間違えてしまいましたが、No Problem!と笑顔で返していただいたこと、いい思い出となっています。
往復の飛行機もホヌ、そしてきれいな海では本物のホヌに会うこともでき、今回のハワイ旅行はホヌ三昧でした。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Heavenly Ocean Tour. The feeling of being surrounded by honu (sea turtles) gives us a sense of continued happiness! We are delighted to hear your words, "I was able to forget the stress of Japan in an instant." We all sincerely look forward to your next visit.

I had an early pickup at 6 AM, but when I woke up, it was already 5:51 AM!! I hurriedly got dressed and left my room, and somehow managed to make it in time for the pickup. On the bus ride there, the guide's fun explanations kept me awake and alert. When we arrived at the port, the sea was calm with hardly any waves, which surprised the guide as well. Shortly after departing, we spotted dolphins. Although the water was murky, we were able to see the dolphins without them ever coming on board. We were thrilled to see the dolphins spinning and jumping around happily. After that, we also got to see a huge turtle that looked like a rock.
The captain and crew were very kind and helpful. They guided my mother, who was snorkeling in deep water for the first time, and she was able to swim without any issues. She had been worried about swimming and seasickness, but she seemed to get used to it and was satisfied by the end. I, on the other hand, felt a bit unwell towards the end, possibly due to lack of sleep since I arrived in Hawaii the day before. I think it's better to get enough rest and prepare your body beforehand. As for photos, I was so focused on watching the dolphins that I didn't have the chance to take many. Therefore, I mostly took pictures on the boat. A professional photographer accompanied us and took photos of the dolphins, turtles, and participants. It was $50 for data sent via email and $60 for a USB purchase. Payment can be made on the day or later at the office. It is a bit pricey, but since it includes photos you can't take yourself, I think it's worth it as a keepsake. If you're considering purchasing, I recommend actively asking for photos.
Also, for those who are sensitive to the cold or worried about sunburn, I think it's better to rent a wetsuit ($10 per person). Lastly, since I also tipped, I suggest bringing extra money if you're thinking about buying photos or renting a wetsuit. I almost missed out on the tour, but I'm glad I made some great memories. If I go to Hawaii again, I would definitely want to repeat this experience. Mahalo!!
朝が早く6時にピックアップでしたが、目覚めると5時51分!!
急いで着替えて部屋を出て、何とかピックアップの時間には間に合いました。
行きのバスの中では、ガイドさんの楽しい説明があり眠気など飛んでいきました。港に着くと、波がほとんどなく穏やかな海でガイドさんもびっくりしていました。出港後、すぐにイルカを発見。海が濁っていたため少し視界は悪かったですが、一度も船に上がることなく終始イルカを見ることができました。また、ご機嫌なイルカ先生のスピンやジャンプもたくさんみれて大興奮でした。その後は、岩のように大きなカメも見ることができてました。
船のキャプテン、クルーの方々もとても親切で良かったです。深い海でのシュノーケルが始めての母を誘導していましたが、特に問題なく泳ぐことができました。母は、泳ぎや船酔いの心配をしていましたが、途中から慣れてきて満足できたようです。私は、参加したのがハワイ到着日の翌日で寝不足もあってか最後に気分が悪くなってしまいました。そのため、十分に睡眠をとり体調を整えていたほうが良いと思います。写真に関しては、イルカさんを見るのに必死で取る余裕がなかったです。そのため、海の中ではほとんど撮らず船の上で撮りました。プロのカメラマンさんが同行しているので、イルカやカメさん、参加者の写真を撮影してくれます。メールへのデータ送信であれば50ドル、USBの購入であれば60ドルでした。支払いは、当日でも、後日オフィスへ支払いに行っても大丈夫です。少し値は張りますが、自分では撮れない写真も含まれているので記念になると思います。購入を考えている方は自分から積極的に写真を撮てもらうといいと思います。あと、寒さに弱い方や日焼けが気になる方は、ウエットスーツをレンタル(1人10ドル)したほうがいいと思います。
最後にチップも支払ったため、写真の購入やウエットスーツのレンタルを考えている方は、その分のお金は持参したほうがいいと思います。
危うくツアーに参加しそびれるところでしたが、いい思い出ができてよかったです。また、ハワイに行くことがあれば是非リピートしたいと思います。
マハロ!!

Watching the sunrise at the sandbar was great, but the snorkeling was limited to just masks and snorkels without fins, and it was only for those who can swim a certain distance using a breaststroke. I have a diving license, but I'm not good at breaststroke, so I didn't participate in the snorkeling, which I was looking forward to. It says on the Veltra website that only those who can swim on their own can participate in snorkeling, but I would like them to specify that it requires being able to swim well using a breaststroke. I regretted that there are other tour companies that do provide fins for rent.
You cannot board the boat wearing flip-flops, so I recommend wearing reef shoes from the hotel, bringing seasickness medication, putting your phone in a waterproof case, and wearing a rash guard to prevent sunburn.
I will upload a picture of the breakfast. It was sufficient for a breakfast. After it was over, I put on clothes over my swimsuit and returned to the hotel without taking a shower.
サンドバーで朝日をみるところまでは良かったのですが、シュノーケリングは、マスクとシュノーケルのみ貸し出しで、フィンの貸し出し無しで、平泳ぎである程度泳げる人限定でした。
私はダイビングライセンスは持ってますが、平泳ぎは苦手。楽しみにしていたシュノーケリングには参加しませんでした。
ベルトラさんには、シュノーケリングはご自身で泳げる方のみが参加いただけます、と書いてありますが、きちんと平泳ぎで泳げる方と書いていただきたいです。
フィンも貸し出している他のツアー会社もあるみたいで後悔しました。
ビーチサンダルでは乗船できないので、リーフシューズをホテルから履いていくこと、酔い止め薬持参、携帯は防水ケースに入れていく、日焼け防止にラッシュガードを着ていくとよいと思います。
朝食は画像をアップします。朝食としては充分です。
終わったら、シャワーは浴びず水着の上から服を着てホテルに戻りました。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Heavenly Ocean Tour.
We sincerely apologize for not adequately accommodating those who struggle with the breaststroke during snorkeling. We had explained that using a flutter kick could accidentally hit customers behind, so we encouraged swimming with the breaststroke. However, after your feedback, we are committed to making improvements so that even those who are not comfortable with the breaststroke can participate easily. We truly appreciate your valuable input. We look forward to welcoming you again on your next visit.

シュノーケリングのご参加に関しまして、平泳ぎが苦手な方への配慮が行き届いておらず大変申し訳ございませんでした。こちらはバタ足で泳いでしまうと後ろのお客様に当たったりしてしまいますので、それを防ぐために平泳ぎで泳いでいただくように説明していたのですが、ご指摘を受けまして今後は平泳ぎが苦手な方でもお気軽にご参加いただけますよう改善していく所存でございます。貴重なご意見をいただきましたことを心より御礼申し上げます。またの機会にぜひお越しいただけますことを心よりお待ち申し上げております。

We had an early morning pickup. We drove in the dark and headed to the coast while watching the sunrise. I thought we would only see turtles and dolphins from a distance. We missed the dolphins, but surprisingly, a turtle came up from the seabed right in front of us and almost collided with us! The photos we purchased separately were attached to an email, and it’s clear that professional shots are better. There were turtles and dolphins captured from positions other than ours. Oh, and the spam onigiri for a light snack was delicious. I've had many, but it was very much to the taste of Japanese people. I wonder where they sell it? Custom-made? I would love to participate again. Thank you, dolphins and everyone!
朝早いピックアップでした。暗いうちに走り朝日見ながら海岸へ行きました。 かめイルカ遠目にみるぐらいだろうなーと思っていました。 イルカはタイミングあいませんでしたがかめはなんと私たち前に海底から上がってきてぶつかりそうで避けました。別購入の写真はメール添付なのでやはりプロが撮ったほうがいいですね。自分たち以外の位置のかめやイルカが映ってました。 あっ軽食のスパムおにぎり美味しかったです。数々食べてますがとても日本人向け。どこに売ってるんだろ?特注? また参加したいです。 いるかさん皆さんありがとう!
