The Japanese pilot was very entertaining, providing a detailed explanation of the Kilauea volcano's crater. It was cloudy until we reached the town of Hilo, but it was sunny when we arrived at Waipi'o Valley. We had about a 30-minute break for landing at the waterfall. I'm glad I was able to experience something so unique in reality.

I participated in the afternoon session. The sandbar had water up to my knees even in shallow areas. Still, I was able to take many wonderful photos! The staff members all spoke Japanese and were very proactive in taking pictures and showing great consideration. Also, the lunch was delicious! It was so good that I went back for seconds! Snorkeling was a lot of fun, with sea turtles coming very close and plenty of fish to see!! If you have a GoPro, you can capture the fish and sea turtles underwater, so I definitely recommend bringing one if you have it! It would also be great to have a float. I participated in November, and while it was a warm day, the water was still a bit cold... I recommend bringing a thick hoodie ('ω').
I definitely want to participate again (〃ω〃)ノ
午後の部に参加させていただきました。
サンドバーは、浅いところでも水が膝上くらいでした。
それでも、素敵な写真がたくさん取れました!
スタッフさんが日本語が話せる方ばっかりで積極的に写真を撮ってくださったり、気配りも素晴らしかったです。
そして、ランチが美味しかったです!
美味しくて、おかわりをしちゃうくらいでした!
シュノーケリングも、ウミガメがとっても近くて魚もいっぱい見れてとても楽しかったです!!
Go Proがあれば、水の中のお魚やウミガメも撮れるので、ある方は絶対持って行った方が良いです!浮きがあればなお良いと思います。
11月の参加で、暖かい日でしたが、それでも水の中が少し寒かった…。厚手のパーカーを持っていくことをお勧めします('ω')

We had a great experience with the shuttle to Hanauma Bay. The driver was very polite and helpful. The van was comfortable and the timing was perfect. The company representative I talked to on the phone was very helpful and gave me excellent advice on where to park our car while we were on the excursion. I would highly recommend this experience. Well worth the price!

I participated with my 4.5-year-old child, and they provided us with kids' masks and boards with viewing windows, which allowed my daughter to enjoy herself.
There was a decent variety and number of fish, and although the visibility was okay, I appreciated that we weren't trying to catch fish with sausages. The slide and diving board required just the right amount of courage, which was great. The restrooms on the boat were also clean.
The speed of speaking in English was fast, but they provided important information on a paper written in Japanese, so I felt there were no issues at all. (My language skills are at a level where I can manage basic conversations in English.)
We received plenty of snacks and fruits, the timing was just right, and dolphins swam alongside us on the way back, so I think the affordable afternoon plan was a good choice.
4歳半の子どもと参加しましたが、キッズ用マスクや、覗き窓つきボードを貸していただき、娘も楽しむことができました。
そこそこの種類と数の魚、透明度でしたが、ソーセージで魚集めるようなこともしていなかったので、好感がもてました。
滑り台や飛び込み台は、ほどよい勇気が必要なレベルで良かったです。
船内のトイレも清潔でした。
英語を喋るスピードは早いですが、重要事項は日本語で書いた紙を渡してくれますので、全く問題ないと感じました。(私の語学力は、軽く英会話ができる程度です)
スナックやフルーツも沢山頂け、時間も適当、イルカも帰りに並走してくれたので、値段が安い午後プランで良かったかなと思います。

On the last day of our trip, we searched for activities near Waikiki and made a reservation the day before. The other participants were mostly foreigners, and there were no explanations in Japanese, but we managed to follow along. About 10 minutes after departure, snorkeling began. There weren't many fish, but we saw three sea turtles. The ocean was surprisingly beautiful. After that, we enjoyed sailing and took in views of Diamond Head and Waikiki from the sea. We had a lot more fun than we expected, even near Waikiki!
旅行最終日にワイキキ近くでできるアクティビティを探して前日申込みました。
参加者は私達夫婦以外は外人ばかりで、日本語の説明も全くありませんでしたが、流れでついていきました。
出航から10分くらいでシュノーケルが始まりました。魚はあまりいませんでしたが、ホヌは3匹は見れました。海は意外にもキレイでした。
その後セーリングでダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキを海から眺めました。

Wetsuits are available for $10 cash or credit payment. The boat moves quite fast, so if you're not confident, it's better to refrain from participating. At first, entering the water can be dark and a bit eerie. Mantas come in response to the lights. I think it's dangerous for people who aren't very accustomed to the sea, like dolphins. Mantas swim gracefully, so I recommend capturing videos.
ウエットスーツは10ドル現金かクレジット支払い
。舟移動結構飛ばしますので得意でない方は止めておいた方が無難です。入水初めは暗くて少し不気味。ライトに反応してマンタがやってくる

I can't speak highly enough of Dan, he is so kind and patient! He made sure that everyone was completely comfortable in the water with the equipment before starting the tour. He was constantly checking to make sure that everyone was still doing well and took us to some spots further out that a lot of people that were snorkeling on their own weren't going to. I think we got to see a lot more than we would have if we just did it on our own so I highly recommend this tour! We got to see so many different kinds of fish and even a sea turtle! Dan was taking pictures with his GoPro and let us know that he posts them all online on his company's Facebook page and that way you are able to just keep what you want to. Him and his wife were both so sweet and you can tell they really love what they do!

I made a reservation two days ago, and the response was smooth, allowing me to secure my booking right away! Kana, the Japanese guide, was very kind and took many photos for us. I recommend bringing an underwater camera! On the way to Molokini Island, I was incredibly moved when dolphins swam alongside the boat, and I got to see them up close for the first time! When the guide spotted a sea turtle, he called out loudly, and we were able to see it right away. It was amazing to see the sea turtle surface for air right in front of us! Next time, I want to go see whales!

I used the service on November 14, 2019. When the bus arrived in front of the hotel, the driver called out my name, so I was able to board without any confusion. There was no place to change into swimsuits, so I wore mine both to and from the location. After arriving, we headed to the sandbar by boat. There were sales of motion sickness medication and sunscreen on the boat, but I think it's better for those who are prone to seasickness to bring their own. Once we arrived at the sandbar, we had some time to take commemorative photos individually, and then we split into groups for snorkeling and non-snorkeling activities. Snorkeling was only for those who could swim, as it required swimming 20 minutes in deep water. For those not snorkeling, one kayak and four stand-up paddleboards were available, and we could play while being taught how to use them. I didn't go snorkeling, but I was able to see a sea turtle while playing. The turtle came quite close, but touching or chasing it is prohibited. Lunch was a buffet with bone-in short ribs, fruits, and unlimited drinks. There were staff members who could speak Japanese, which was reassuring. Captain Bruce seems to cooperate with Japanese television filming as well.
2019年11月14日に利用しました。バスはホテル前につくと運転手さんから名前を呼んでくれたので迷わず乗ることができました。水着は着替えるところがないので行きも帰りも着たままでした。現地に着いてからはボートでサンドバーへ向かいました。ボートの中で酔い止めや日焼け止めの販売はありましたが、酔いやすい方は用意して行った方がいいと思います。サンドバーではまず着いて記念撮影を各自で撮る時間があり、その後シュノーケリングをする人としない人に分かれて行動しました。シュノーケリングは片道20分足のつかない海を泳がなくてはいけないため泳げる人のみの参加でした。シュノーケリングをやらない人はカヤック一台とサップ四台が用意してありやり方を教えてもらいながら遊ぶことができました。私はシュノーケリングにはいかなかったのですが、遊んでいる時にウミガメをみることができました。かなり近くまでカメさんが来てくれますが触ることや追いかけることは禁止されています。お昼ご飯はバイキングで骨付きカルビやフルーツ、ドリンクも飲み放題でした。日本語対応スタッフもいるので安心でした。キャプテンブルースは日本のテレビ撮影などにも協力しているようです。

This was the tour I was looking forward to the most on this trip. It takes about an hour by bus from the hotel in Waikiki to the boat dock. I was really worried about seasickness, but I was perfectly fine with motion sickness pills and a wristband. The sandbar was truly beautiful and worth the visit! I took a lot of photos during the sandbar walk. The snorkeling was done in a place where you can't touch the bottom, so it's limited to those who can swim. I saw a lot of fish, and there were also many sea turtles, which made for a valuable experience. I wasn't expecting much from the food on the boat, but the barbecue was really delicious! The guide was also a wonderful person.

We were picked up from a hotel near Waikiki and took about an hour by bus to the boat dock, from where we boarded the boat and headed to the sandbar!
For lunch, we were served hamburgers and drinks on the boat! They were very delicious!
There were also two restrooms on the boat.
The boat didn't sway too much, but if you're worried, it might be a good idea to take motion sickness medication before participating.
We joined the sandbar tour in the morning, avoiding high tide, and the water was still up to our thighs! The timing of high tide varies by season, so it might be good to check that before deciding on the tour time.
You can leave your belongings on the boat while taking photos and snorkeling at the sandbar. It was my first time snorkeling, but the staff taught us, and after a few tries, I got the hang of it! We moved the boat a little and, wearing safety jackets, we saw coral reefs and fish at a depth of about 10 meters. At first, I was a bit scared, but I was able to see the beautiful underwater scenery.
While swimming, I was lucky enough to encounter a sea turtle, which was a rare experience.
We could also see many sea turtles from the boat and managed to capture some great photos.
On the way back, you can change clothes at a restroom near the boat dock, but I didn't have time (the men's restroom had no line, but the women's restroom had a queue), so I wore my clothes over my swimsuit on the way back. I had a bath towel, but since I got wet, I laid down a few smaller towels on the bus. I recommend bringing a few larger towels to prevent the bus seats from getting wet.
The guide and the captain were very friendly and cheerful! I really had a great time!

I participated with my 2-year-old. We joined in the morning, but despite that, the sandbar was already covered by the tide and we couldn't see it. I wonder if we needed to take an earlier tour? However, my child seemed very satisfied floating in the waves with a float. It was a beautifully sunny day, and the ocean was incredibly clear.
For lunch, we had burgers with charcoal-grilled patties. They were absolutely delicious! Since my child can't eat hamburgers yet, I brought rice balls.
We were lucky enough to see not only sea turtles but also manta rays up close! In the end, after playing a lot, they provided warm drinks for our chilled bodies, which was very satisfying. The staff were kind, and it was reassuring that they spoke Japanese. I would love to participate again.

The sandbar tour, which can only be seen at low tide, was wonderful thanks to the friendly staff, and we had a great time. The weather was nice, we got to see the sandbar, and we enjoyed swimming around the anchored boat, where we spotted natural sea turtles multiple times.
Additionally, we had a snorkeling plan included, but we ended up retiring from that. Instead, we were able to borrow kayaks and floats, and we also had the opportunity to experience stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). Although it was for a short time, we also enjoyed cruising on the cruiser, so thank you for that.
Thanks to the staff's fun conversations and attentive service, we had a lovely time. However, for those participating, since it involves snorkeling and a vacation at sea, I hope everyone prioritizes safety, follows the rules, and enjoys themselves responsibly. It was a fun and wonderful experience.

スタッフさんの楽しいトークときめ細やかな対応で素敵な時間を過ごすことができました。ただ、参加される方についてはシュノーケルや海でのバカンスという事もあって、安全を最優先に考えてルールをしっかり守って自己責任で、管理した中で、楽しんでいただきたいなと思います。楽しく素敵な時間で良かったです。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Our company has developed various activities so that even customers who cannot go snorkeling can enjoy themselves, led by our president, Bruce. We are glad to hear that you had a good time. All of our staff sincerely look forward to your next visit.

The sandbar was very beautiful, but it was about waist-deep and was more ordinary than I had imagined... It might have been better to consider the tide times before going. The sea turtle watching was amazing; I was able to swim very close to the sea turtles, and it was an emotional experience!
サンドバーはとても綺麗でしたが、腰くらいまで深さがあり、想像していたより普通の海でした…潮の満ち引きの時間を考えて行った方が良かったのかもしれません。ウミガメウォッチはとても近くでウミガメと泳ぐことができ、感動しました!

I participated in the morning tour. It was a bit early, but the lunch buffet was delicious and I was very satisfied! I can't swim, so I gave up on snorkeling, but just playing around on the board was enough fun. Next time, I want to join the afternoon tour... next year? The year after? I will definitely choose Captain Bruce again!
午前のツアーに参加しました。少し時間は早めだったけど、ランチブッフェも美味しくて大満足!泳げないのでシュノーケリングは諦めましたが、プカプカとボードで遊ぶだけでも、十分楽しめました。今度は午後からのツアーに参加したいなぁ…来年?再来年?また絶対にキャプテンブルースを選びます!

They take you to a transparent sea where you can see the bottom, even though it's deep. The moment I swam while listening to the dolphins' conversations was indescribably pleasant! Even for someone like me who isn't good at swimming, it was fine. I'm grateful to the crew for their efforts to help us meet the dolphins!
深いのに海の底が見える透明度の海まで連れて行ってくれます。イルカの会話を聴きながら泳いだ瞬間はなんとも言えない気持ちよさ!泳ぎが苦手な私でも大丈夫でした。イルカに会えるまでなんとか頑張ろうとするクルーには感謝!
ALOHA!
Thank you for participating in Dolphin Middle School.
We are dedicated to welcoming our guests every day with the hope that everyone can meet the dolphins!

The number of participants was too high compared to the size of the cruiser, making it difficult to find a place to sit during the cruise and at lunchtime, forcing us to stand the whole time. Additionally, the safety of snorkeling was entirely left to the individuals, with no supervision. Despite there being dangerous areas with depths over 10 meters, there were no staff monitoring the situation, nor were there any lifeguards available. It’s concerning that an accident could happen at any moment.
クルーザーの大きさに比べて参加人員が多く、クルージングの道中も昼食時も座るスペースが確保できず立ちっぱなし。またシュノーケルの安全面は全て本人任せで放置。水深が10メートル以上の危険箇所があるにもかかわらず、監視するスタッフもいなければ、ライフセーバーの用意もない。これではいつ事故が起きてもおかしくない。
Thank you very much for using our service.
However, I sincerely apologize for the concerns regarding safety that you experienced during your participation.
I confirmed the situation on the day of the event with the local operating company. On that day, there were 37 participants on a 49-passenger boat and 50 participants on a 65-passenger boat. Each boat had one captain, three crew members, and one interpreter on board. Since the number of participants was less than the capacity, there should have been enough seats for everyone, but due to inadequate space adjustments, participants had to stand while having lunch, for which I am truly sorry.
Regarding snorkeling, please understand that the captain monitored the safety of all participants from the boat, while the crew ensured safety in the water, following established safety protocols. Additionally, we offer the rental of life jackets and boogie boards according to your needs.
We conduct our activities with the safety of all participants in mind, but I take your feelings of unease seriously and will work with the local operating company to improve our services. Thank you for your valuable feedback.

この度はご利用くださり誠にありがとうございます。
しかしながら、安全面に不安を感じながら参加いただくことになりましたこと、お詫び申し上げます。
当日の状況を現地催行会社に確認させていただきました。
当日は、49名乗りのボートに37名、65名乗りのボートに50名のお客様が参加され、各ボートに、キャプテンが1名、クルー3名、通訳1名が乗船しておりました。
定員より少ない人数配分としていたため、椅子の数は参加人数分以上あったはずではございましたが、スペースの調整が至らず、立ちっぱなしで昼食をいただく結果となり申し訳ございません。
シュノーケリングにつきましては、安全面を考慮した既定のもと、キャプテンは船上から、クルーは海の中で参加者全員の安全を見守っておりますことご了承ください。
また、ご希望に合わせて、ライフジャケットやビート版の貸し出しも行っております。
このような形で参加者全員の安全面に配慮をしながら日々催行しておりますが、不安なお気持ちにさせてしまいましたことを真摯に受け止め、現地催行会社と共にサービスの向上に努めてまいります。
この度は貴重なご意見ありがとうございます。
