ナ・パリ・コースト　サンセットディナークルーズ 運がよければイルカに会えるかも！＜夕食・飲み放題付き／英語ガイド／エレエレ地区＞

I enjoyed magnificent scenery that you definitely can't find in Japan. 日本には絶対ない雄大な景色を堪能しました。

Reviewed by: KAHSIN

I headed to the meeting place (meeting time 3 PM) by rental car. The office is located in a building on the right side as you head towards the port, and just beyond that, there is a large parking lot where you can park. After parking, I checked in at the office by confirming the health status items displayed on the screen (all in English). At 3:10 PM, the captain arrived, called out names one by one to confirm everyone was present, and explained the precautions in English before heading to the port. Besides us, there was another Japanese family participating, but the other 12 or 13 groups were all foreigners. Before boarding, we took off our shoes and went barefoot, leaving our shoes in the designated area (some people chose to carry theirs on board).

We set sail at 3:30 PM. There were three staff members, including the captain (two men and one woman). At first, it was cloudy, and we could see rain falling in the distance over the sea, which made us worry about the weather. However, as we headed towards the Na Pali Coast, the skies cleared up. We enjoyed the cruise while having drinks and light snacks (like cheese and crackers), and after about an hour, we finally saw the towering cliffs.

From there, we were treated to breathtaking views that you can't find in Japan! After about an hour, we reached the end of the Na Pali Coast (slowing down the boat at various points to take in the scenery) and turned around. On the way back, we carefully navigated the boat into a spot where the cliffs had eroded, creating a cave-like area, which was a lot of fun. We were also shown a place where there were many sea turtles, and we were able to see two of them surface.

Around 6 PM, we had dinner (there were quite a few options for rice and side dishes). We also got to see dolphins, who jumped out of the water and spun around to greet us.

Finally, just after 7 PM, we counted down together for the moment the sunset hit the ocean, and there was applause at the moment of sunset! (For those who wanted, there was a toast with champagne!) After that, we were moved by the changing colors of the sky from sunset to night. We safely arrived back at the port at 7:30 PM and disbanded.

The captain provided explanations through the microphone while driving the boat, and the other two staff members were very friendly, chatting with us and taking pictures for us. I couldn’t drink alcohol since I had to drive back, but others enjoyed the "all-you-can-drink!" It was the best time ever.

レンタカーで集合場所（集合時間15時）に向かったのですが、港に向かって右側に事務所がある建物、その先すぐに広い駐車場があるので、そこに駐車してOK。事務所で画面に表示された当日の健康状態確認事項（すべて英語表記です）にチェックを入れて受付完了。15時10分船長さんが現れ、１組ずつ名前が呼ばれて全員集合を確認し、注意事項を英語で説明して港へ。私達以外に、もう1組日本人家族が参加していましたが、他の12,3組程度の方はすべて外国の方でした。乗船前に靴を脱いで裸足になり、靴置き場に預けます。（自分で持って乗る人もいました。）
15時30分出航。スタッフは船長さんを含めて3名（男性2名・女性1名）です。最初は曇っていて、海の遠方では、雨が降っているのが見えて、天気がどうなるか心配しましたが、ナパリコーストに向かう途中でどんどん晴れてきました。行きに飲み物と軽食（チーズやクラッカー等）を頂きながらクルーズを楽しみ、1時間ほど進むといよいよ断崖絶壁の山が見えてきます。
そこからは、日本にはない絶景をこれでもか！というくらい楽しめます。約1時間ほどでナパリコーストの端に到着（途中ポイント・ポイントで船の速度を落として景色を堪能します）してUターン。戻る途中、絶壁が削れていて少し洞窟みたいなっている所に船を慎重に入れて楽しみます。また、ウミガメがたくさん居る所を案内してくれて、2匹水面に現れて見ることができました。18時頃、夕食を食べました。（ご飯、おかず、結構種類がありました。）また、イルカにも会えて、水面から飛び上がり、くるくる回転して歓迎してくれました。
いよいよ19時ちょっと過ぎに、海面に夕日が沈む瞬間を、皆でカウントダウンして、日没の瞬間に拍手！！（希望者にはシャンペンで乾杯！）その後、空が夕焼けから夜に向かう色の変化に感動し、19時30分、無事港に到着し解散となりました。
船長さんは運転しながら、マイクで所々説明をしてくれ、残りの2名のスタッフは、フレンドリーに話しかけてくれたり、カメラのシャッターを押してくれたり、とても親切でした。私は帰りに車を運転しなければならなかったので、アルコールは飲めませんでしたが、他の方はまさに「飲み放題！」
最高のひと時でした。

The Driver was at our hotel on time, he was courteous and professional. Friendly as well. He gave good directions and made sure our snorkel gear was in good working order. He was early for our pick up and got us safely back to our hotel. The bay is amazing and it was by far the best place I have snorkeled and that is why I returned with my family.

The crew members are kind and attentive. It was reassuring that they could speak Japanese. You can see schools of fish while snorkeling. Sea turtles come close enough to touch. They are protected animals, so you shouldn't touch them, but it's definitely an unforgettable experience. In any case, I recommend it because you can see the beautiful ocean!

I am grateful for the wonderful encounter. 素晴らしい出会いに感謝☆

Reviewed by: Miho

I woke up at 5 AM and moved to the meeting place in the dim light.

I was worried because I had heard that a tropical storm was coming from the south, but with dawn came clear skies. The sea was calm as well.

The bus provided a thorough explanation beforehand. After boarding, they quickly distributed the equipment.

About 15 minutes after boarding, we encountered a pod of dolphins. We were able to see the dolphins up close as they swam back and forth without needing to change boats.

We moved to another spot for snorkeling. We saw two green sea turtles and an eel, among other things.

The guide mentioned that this was one of the top ten best days of the year.

As expected with wildlife, timing and luck play a role. It seemed challenging to find the dolphins that day, but I felt that the staff here would give their all regardless.

I was able to enjoy the entire experience since I took motion sickness medication.

However, the air conditioning in the car broke on the way back, so I’ll give it a ☆-1.

This can't be helped, but...

Thank you to all the staff and to the god of Waianae!

Lucky double rainbow 幸運のダブルレインボウ

Reviewed by: TTTT

Today, there were six Japanese participants, one of whom was an 11-year-old girl. After listening to various explanations, everyone put on wetsuits, and I, being a bit nervous, also wore a life jacket. We set off to our destination on the cruiser!

"The waves are high today," they said, and we experienced quite a bit of rocking and splashes. "It looks like it's raining around the point," I thought we might be unlucky, but then I saw a rainbow in the left front. As I was delighted by that rainbow, I noticed another one behind us. And behind us was a beautiful sunset.

Thanks to that situation, we saw a large semi-circular rainbow. On top of that, it was a double rainbow! I was very satisfied with this cruising experience, which allowed us to enjoy a 360-degree view while getting splashed, even more than a regular sunset cruise.

When we arrived at the point, we put on our snorkels. Following my husband, I jumped in, but my snorkel came off due to an accident. However, the staff calmed me down, saying, "There's no need to panic. I'll help you put it back on."

As we reached the point, we were amazed to see a manta ray almost immediately. "Wow, that's amazing!" I exclaimed, and then two manta rays rolled up towards us from the seabed, circling just inches away with their mouths wide open—I could even see inside their mouths.

For someone like me, who gets nervous easily, it was quite a shock. But each time, they reassured me with, "A manta is coming!" "You're okay!" "Just relax and float!" This guidance helped me stay calm and enjoy the experience.

The plankton, larval crustaceans, and swimming fish were sparkling beautifully thanks to the lighting. It was truly a precious experience.

With attentive service throughout, the cruiser driver offered me sparkling water since I was feeling a bit seasick. Even though I was in a wetsuit, I still felt quite cold. The hot chocolate made by the staff after we returned warmed both my heart and body. It became a wonderful memory of Hawaii! ☆*:.｡. o(≧▽≦)o .｡.:*☆

本日の日本人参加者は6人。うち1人は11歳の女の子。
諸説明を聞き、全員ウエットスーツを着用し、ビビリの私は、ライフジャケットもつけました。
クルーザーで目的地へ発進❗️
「今日は波が高いですね」ということで大きく揺れつつ、波しぶきもしっかり浴びました。
「ポイント辺り、雨降っていそうですね」ということで、あー私たちついてないのかなーーーと思っっていると、左前方に虹が。その虹に大喜びしてると、左後方にも虹が。そして、背後には美しいサンセットが。
そんなシチュエーションのおかげで、半円の大きな虹が見えました。その上、二重に！ダブルレインボーになりました。
普通のサンセットクルーズより、波しぶきを浴びながら360度見渡せるこのクルージングだけでも、大満足❣️でした。

ポイントに着き、シュノーケル装着。主人に続いてドボンと飛び込むとーシュノーケルが外れるアクシデント。でも、スタッフさんが「焦らなくて大丈夫。つけてあげるから」と落ち着かせてくれました。
ポイントに行くと、驚くほど直ぐにマンタが(´⊙ω⊙`)。あー凄い！と喜んでいると、2匹のマンタが、海底より私たちに向かってローリングアップ。大きな口を開けてーーースレスレを旋回。口の中まで見えました。
ビビリの私には、強すぎる衝撃でした。でも、その都度、「マンタ来ますよー」「大丈夫ですよー」「力を抜いて浮いていてくださいねー」と的確に声をかけていただいて、落ち着いて、楽しむことができました。
海中のプランクトンー甲殻類の幼生等や、泳ぎ回るサカナ等、照明のお陰でキラキラしてよく見えました。本当に貴重な体験でした。

すべてに丁寧な対応で、船酔い気味の私に、クルーザーの運転手さんは炭酸水をくださいました。ウエットスーツ着てたけど、それでもとっても冷えました。帰着後に頂いた、スタッフさん手作りのホットチョコレートは、心も身体も温まりました。ハワイのとっても良い思いでになりました

Reviewed by: Koo

All other tours were fully booked, so we chose this one, and we had a great time.

For us, who were worried about not being able to keep up with a more intense itinerary, this was just the right amount of activity. The free time at the sandbar and snorkeling were perfectly timed for enjoyment. Although we didn't see any sea turtles while swimming, we encountered several from the boat. The children were very happy and expressed a desire to participate again.

There were also restrooms available, so we didn't have any issues.

予約がいっぱいで他のツアーは取れなくてこちらにしたのですが、とても楽しめました。

あまりハードな内容だとついていけないと不安だった私たちにとってはちょうど良い内容でした。サンドバーでの自由時間やシュノーケリングなどちょうど良い時間配分で楽しめます。泳ぎながらウミガメは見えませんでしたが、船の上から何匹もウミガメに会えました。子供たちもとても喜んでいてまたぜひ参加したいと思いました。

It's a bit overwhelming. 煽られるのがちょっと

Reviewed by: よしお

The president personally guided us, but when there are dolphins, we have to jump into the sea quickly, and I was rushed with comments like "You're too slow to jump!" and "Hurry up and get ready!" Even if they rush us, we're beginners and can't respond quickly. I wish they could take it a bit easier. It made me quite anxious.

I did see dolphins, but the water was murky, so it felt like I could only see their shadows.

学長さん自らが案内してくれたが、イルカがいたら急いで海に飛び込まないといけないのだが、飛び込みが遅い！とか早く準備して！とか急かされる。急かしたところでこちらは初心者なので急には対応出来ない。もう少しのんびり構えてもらいたい。ビクビクしてしまう。

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkeling Tour & BBQ Lunch with Waikiki Pickup

Great day trip for the whole family!

Reviewed by: from SF, CA

Our group of 3 adults and 3 kids (12 yrs, 10, 10) took this trip a few weeks back during our vacation. We were not in the hotel zone so drove ourselves to Kaneohe Marina. Quick boat trip out to the sand bar, then to find honu (sea turtles) and finally out to a reef for some amazing snorkeling. Lunch (surprisingly delicious) was in there somewhere. Our crew was great - super nice, friendly and knowledgeable. Enjoyed hearing about Kaneohe Bay and the surrounding area. The only improvement I'd ask for is a bit more time out at the sandbar - felt like we could have stayed longer but other than that, everyone had a great time. We visit Hawaii every summer and try to hit new spots and new activities each visit. Our group agreed that we'd do this trip again if we could. Have fun!

モロキニ島シュノーケリングクルーズ ＜朝・昼食付／現地集合＞

It was fun as a cruise. クルーズとして楽しかった

Reviewed by: AKI

We were scheduled to snorkel at two locations, but due to high waves, we only snorkeled around Molokini Island. The water clarity was high and beautiful, but there were few fish.

Additionally, there were many people, so we spent a long time waiting for everything (getting food, entering the sea), which felt a bit wasteful.

While the snorkeling experience was somewhat lacking, diving into the sea from the slide attached to the boat and enjoying the wonderful scenery while cruising was fun.

Also, the hamburger for lunch was delicious. My family was the only Japanese group, but it was reassuring to have a Japanese crew member.

2箇所でシュノーケルする予定が、波が高くてモロキニ島の周り1箇所でのシュノーケルになった。透明度は高くて綺麗だったが、魚の数は少なかった。
また、人数が多くて何をするにも（ご飯をとる、海へ入る）並ぶ時間が長く、少しもったいなく感じた。
シュノーケルの内容としては物足りなかったが、
船にとりつけられたすべり台から海へのダイブや素晴らしい景色のクルージング楽しかった。
また、ランチのハンバーガーはおいしかった。

Dolphin expert イルカのプロ

Reviewed by: samotako

I was led by guides who never forgot their respect for dolphins on a small group tour, and even though I can't swim, I was able to encounter a pod of dolphins twice! My daughter seemed truly moved by the pod and managed to dive during all six of her attempts, seeing not only dolphins but also a large school of mackerel. My son, who usually doesn't get seasick, ended up feeling nauseous on the boat. It might have been because he wasn't used to the wetsuit. Additionally, wearing a rash guard might have been constricting for him. Even the experienced guides mentioned that they feel seasick when wearing a wetsuit, so for those who can swim, it might be better to keep things light.

少人数のツアーでイルカに対するリスペクトを忘れない姿勢のガイドさん達にリードしてもらい、泳げない私でも2度ほどイルカの群れに出会えました！
娘はイルカの群れに本当に感動したようで、6回ほどのチャレンジ全て潜り、イルカの他アジの大群なども見たようです。
息子は普段酔うタイプではないのですが、船酔いしてしまいました。ウエットスーツが慣れなかったせいもあるかもしれません。更にラッシュガードも着ていたのが体を締め付けていたのかも。

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾　シュノーケリングツアー ＜軽食付き／英語ガイド＞

Since we are boarding with a small group, it feels private. 少人数で乗船するのでプライベート感があります

Reviewed by: ぺこち

Since there was no shuttle service, we took an Uber to the dock for $20. When we signed up for the trip, it turned out that we were the only ones on the boat. It seems that the other participants, all from English-speaking countries, were on separate boats with their families. After visiting the blowhole, we went snorkeling at Captain Cook's Cove, where we saw a lot of tropical fish. After that, we went looking for dolphins and encountered a large pod of dolphins called Captain Whale, which were about 5 meters long! We observed the dolphins from the boat.

Since we went on a small boat, here are some points to consider:

Pros: The small boat can anchor close to the coral reef, allowing us to get near the fish areas without swimming too much. With fewer people, it feels more private.
Cons: There are only two seats with backrests. The other two seats are like benches on the side, so it feels scary unless you hold onto something to avoid being thrown around. There was only one staff member who acted as both the driver and the guide. The boat goes quite fast, so motion sickness medication is a must.

送迎なしのため、船着き場まではuberで$20で行きました。4人で申し込んだところ、船に乗るのは私達だけでした。他の参加者【全員英語圏】も家族ごとに別の船だったようです。ブロウホールを見学したあと、キャプテンクック岬でシュノーケリングしました。たくさんの熱帯魚が見られます。そのあとイルカを探しに行き、キャプテンホエールという体長5mの大きなイルカの群れに遭遇できました！イルカは船上からの観察です。

小さいボートで行くので以下をご参考に。

メリット：船が小さいので珊瑚礁の近くに停泊できる。したがってあまり泳がなくても魚エリアに近づける。少人数なのでプライベート感がある。
デメリット：背もたれのある座席は2席のみ。あとの2席は側面のベンチのような椅子に座るので、何かにつかまっていないと飛ばされそうで怖い。船のスタッフは運転手兼ガイドの1名のみ。かなりスピードを出すので酔い止めは必須。

Kona Manta Ray Snorkel & Night Dive Tour at Keauhou Bay - Sea Paradise

A true must do experience

Reviewed by: Adam

PLEASE READ, IT WILL HELP! Truthfully I was skeptical when the tour started, we were the last boat to the area and the last in the water and you could see everyone getting a little edgy seeing other groups experiencing the odd Manta whilst we were still on deck. The staff kept telling us to relax, it would be great. When we finally got in the water we waited a short while for the first Manta and it is exciting, however we didn’t know what was to come. Their plan worked a treat, the other boats all started to leave as they are
On strict timeframes (although we didn’t realise this with our heads down) and we were swarmed by Mantas. The crew counted 7, I thought there were more but perhaps that was my excitement. These giants come so close you can’t believe they don’t touch you belly to belly as they barrel roll. THIS IS AN UNBELIEVABLE EXPERIENCE. The crew are very careful not to damage the environment with their anchor placement and so respectful of the Mantas. I cannot recommend this experience or this operator enough.

マンタ大学夜学部　野生のマンタ＆ナイトシュノーケリングツアー ＜送迎可／日本語スタッフ乗船日あり＞

I could see manta rays from a distance, but it was the worst tour. マンタは遠目に見れたが最悪のツアー

Reviewed by: あいう

It was the worst. First of all, the boat was probably over capacity. We were crammed in tightly, and those who couldn't sit had to sit on the steps. We were told to take off our flip-flops before getting on the boat. Those wearing water shoes were allowed to keep them on. For nearly 30 minutes, I was trying to avoid seasickness by staring into the distance in such a cramped space. When we arrived at the spot, we entered the water, but instead of swimming, we had to hold onto a rope and stay in a stretched-out position. (There was no space between us and the person next to us, so we were constantly bumping into each other.) Kicking our legs was prohibited. We had to maintain that position for about 50 minutes. It was really tough, and it got quite cold. I have experience with snorkeling and diving and was confident in my stamina, but this type of tour was a first for me, and I was quite exhausted.

Moreover, the descriptions stated things like "You can see mantas up close" and "First-timers will be well supported and feel safe!" and "The boat is comfortable," but the mantas didn't come close at all, there was no reassuring support, and a cramped boat with people so close together was anything but comfortable. It's understandable that mantas, being wild animals, might not show up, but it seemed like the divers below were trying to lure them in. However, the bubbles from their exhaled air kept rising towards us, making it impossible to see any mantas. I could only confirm the presence of a manta below with light about three times. After returning to the boat, someone ended up vomiting (which is understandable after maintaining that floating position for 50 minutes), but the tour staff aggressively washed the vomit away with water right at our feet. We almost ended up with "sympathy vomit," so we moved away from our seats. The vomit was not completely cleaned up, and there were remnants scattered at our feet. Later, we were told, "If you feel sick, please use this bucket." I think such information should have been communicated before departure. The person who vomited likely didn't have any instructions on where to go, which is why they ended up vomiting on the boat. I couldn't walk barefoot over the scattered vomit, so I had to stand instead of sitting. There was no consideration from the tour staff regarding this, and we ended up sitting on the hard ground on the way back. Although there were cushions on the seats, we endured about 30 minutes on the hard ground while being rocked by the rough waves. It was really tough.

To begin with, they packed us in over capacity, so there was no preparation for emergencies like this. Despite paying a good amount, we ended up sitting on the ground on the way back, which was just the worst. They mentioned that light snacks would be provided, but all we got were peanuts. The tour was from 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM, so I was expecting a simple dinner (like sandwiches or burgers), but peanuts... I was really frustrated with this tour despite paying a good amount. If they are going to provide details about the tour, they should specify what kind of viewing method it involves and that the light snacks are not a dinner, so we should eat beforehand. For those hoping to swim with mantas, please be careful, as that is not the case.

最悪だった。まずボートは恐らく定員オーバー。キツキツに詰められて、さらに座れない人は段差に座る羽目に。ビーチサンダルはボートに乗る前に脱ぐように言われます。海用シューズを履いていた人はそのままでOKでした。30分近く窮屈な中、船酔いしないように遠くを眺めてました。ポイントについて海に入りますが、泳ぐのではなく紐に捕まって蹴伸びの状態。（隣の人との間隔がないので常にぶつかってます）足をバタつかせるのは禁止。そのまま約50分キープする体制です。とにかくその体制はきついです。そしてかなり冷えます。シュノーケルやダイビングをよく体験していて体力には自信がありましたが、このような体制のツアーは初めてだったのでかなり疲れました。そして、記載されていた【マンタが手の届く程近くで見れる】や【初めての方もしっかりサポートで安心！】【船上も快適】など書いてありましたが、マンタが手の近くまで来ることもなく、安心のサポートもなく、あんな人と人が密着してる窮屈な船上が快適なわけありません。マンタは自然の動物なので、現れなかった。と言うのは仕方ないですが、ダイビングの人が下でマンタをおびき寄せてたみたいですが、その人たちが吐く空気の泡が私たちの方に上がってくるので全くマンタを見ることができませんでした。3回くらい下にいたマンタを光で確認できた程度。そして船に戻ってから吐いてしまった人がいて（流石に50分も浮いた状態をキープするのは気持ち悪くなるのでそれは仕方ないですが）その人のゲロを私たちの足元にツアーの人が水で勢いよく流してきました。貰いゲロをしそうだったので私たちは席から離れました。ゲロは完全に処理されず、足元には流れきれなかったものがあちこちに。そしてあとから「気持ち悪い人はこのバケツに吐いてください」と。そういうのは出発前に伝えるべきだったと思う。吐いた人もそのような説明がなく、どこに吐いていいかわからなくて、船の上に吐いてしまったのだと思う。そして散らばったゲロの上を裸足で歩くのはさすがに私にはできなかったので、座る場所を奪われ立っていました。それに対してツアーの人たちの配慮がなく、私たちは地べたに座って帰りました。イスにはクッションが敷いてありますが、私たちは硬い地べたの上で荒波に揺られながら約30分間も耐えていました。本当にきつかったです。そもそも定員オーバーで人を詰め込んでいるから、万が一のこういう時の備えがない。いい金額を払っているのにもかかわらず、帰りは地べたに座る羽目なんて最悪すぎました。そして軽食が出ると書いてありますが、出してきたのはピーナッツ。17:30〜21:00までのツアーだったので、簡単な夜ご飯（サンドイッチやハンバーガー系のもの）が配られるのを期待していましたが、ピーナッツって、、、って思いました。とにかくいい金額を払っているのに、このツアーにはイライラしかしませんでした。ツアーの詳細を記載するなら、どのような見学方法なのかとか、軽食は夕食ではないから済ませて来いなど書いておくべきだと思います。マンタと一緒に泳げると思って参加を希望している人は、そうではないので気をつけてください。

カイルアビーチ送迎シャトルサービス　嬉しい5時間滞在！ビーチグッズなど各種レンタル付き＜日本語スタッフ／ランチ付＞

Plenty of free time, comfortable, and the lunch is delicious! 自由時間たっぷり、快適でランチが美味しい！

Reviewed by: ＭＡＮＡＭＩ

It was really great. The beach was nearby, and it was convenient to have lockers and changing rooms available. The lunch pizza was the best pizza I've ever had. I want to go just to eat the pizza! It was about a 15-minute walk to the town of Kailua. I was worried about the roads this time, so I walked, but there was plenty of space for biking, so I plan to rent a bike next time.

すごく良かったです。現地ではビーチも近く、ロッカー、更衣室が使えるのが便利でした。ランチのピザも今ままで食べた中で一番美味しいピザでした。ピザだけでも食べに行きたいです！
カイルアの街までは徒歩15分くらいでした。道が心配で今回は徒歩でしたが、自転車走行スペースも広かったので、次回は自転車をレンタルしたいと思います。

マンタ大学夜学部　野生のマンタ＆ナイトシュノーケリングツアー ＜送迎可／日本語スタッフ乗船日あり＞

I wanted to see Rolling. ローリングが見たかった

Reviewed by: 旅人初心者

I understand that it's nature and you can't control it, but honestly, I was expecting to see a bit more, so I felt a bit unsatisfied. We floated on the surface for over 40 minutes, catching sight of a manta ray three times at the edge of our vision, and towards the end, one manta passed quite far below our group. We were so disappointed with the lack of sightings that when we finally saw one, we were like, "Wow!"

The guide was very considerate and polite, which was great. I want to improve my luck with manta rays and try again. There was a little girl, around elementary school age, in our group who started to cry from the cold halfway through. The night sea can be tough for small children.

Also, I think it's a good idea to prepare tips for the local staff. After returning to the port, the guide mentioned, "If you'd like to give something to the driver," and some people were caught off guard. It's not something you have to do, but being able to do this smoothly feels smart. On the day, you will be taken care of by about three to four people, including the guide, the boat driver, and the shuttle staff, so I recommend it.

自然の生きもの相手なのでしょうがないと分かってはいるものの、正直もう少し見られるかと思っていたので物足りない感。
40分以上海面を漂って、視界の端にマンタをとらえること3回、終わり頃に1度だけ自分たちのグループの下（かなり下）をマンタが通過していきました。あまりに見られなかったので、そのときには「おおっ！」となりましたが…。
ガイドさんは気遣いのある丁寧な方でとても良かったです。自分のマンタ運を高めて、またチャレンジしたいです。
一緒のグループで参加されていた小学生くらいのお嬢さんが、途中から寒い寒いと半泣き状態でした。夜の海は小さいお子さんにはつらいかもしれません。
また、現地スタッフさんへのチップをご用意されておくと良いかと思います。帰港後ガイドさんに「運転手さんに良かったら」と言われ、あわてている方も。必ず渡すべきものではありませんが、こういうのがすっとできるとスマートな気がします。ガイドさん、船の運転手さん、送迎のお兄さんなど、当日は3〜4名の方にお世話になりますので、ぜひ。

サンドバー　キャプテンブルース　天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ　SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも！＜午前・午後／日本語クルー＞

A sea turtle up close... 間近にウミガメが...

Reviewed by: トッシー

The beautiful sea and perfect weather allowed me to see many sea turtles up close. It's clear that they take great care of the turtles. I highly recommend it.

However, there was one issue: while returning to the boat from the sandbar, a sea turtle appeared near me. Someone threw the shrimp tails we had for lunch between the turtle and me. Was that a tourist's doing? Was it a staff instruction? I'm still unsure if feeding them was acceptable, and I missed the chance to ask, which leaves me feeling a bit unsettled.

綺麗な海、天気も最高で間近に多くのウミガメを見ることができました。また、ウミガメをとても大切にしていることがよくわかります。
非常におすすめです。
ただ一点、サンドバーから船に戻る時にウミガメが私の近くに現れました。さらに、ウミガメと私の間にランチでいただいたエビの尻尾を誰かが投げ入れました。あれは観光客の故意？スタッフの指示？エサを与えるこの行為自体OKだったのか未だにわかりません。聞きそびれてモヤモヤしてします。

プライベートチャーター　ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー！GoProレンタルあり＜午前／日本語ガイド＞

Because they are living creatures of nature. 自然の生きものなので

Reviewed by: 旅人初心者

On the day, it was quite difficult to find dolphins. The guide communicated with other boats and made every effort to search for them. As a result, we were able to see a rare bottlenose dolphin just in time, and I am grateful for that encounter.
However, it felt more like "seeing dolphins swimming underwater" rather than "swimming with dolphins." Also, when the search for dolphins takes a long time like this, there is hardly any time left to enjoy snorkeling. If you don't take that into consideration, you might feel a bit disappointed.
Additionally, I personally didn't have any tips prepared, which I regretted. While it's not something you have to pay, I think it's nice to give a little something to the guide and the boat driver who worked hard for us. It would be smart to prepare a tip in addition to the fee.

当日はなかなかイルカが見つからず…。ガイドさんが他の船と連絡を取り合い、心をつくして探してくださいました。結果、ぎりぎりのところで珍しいバンドウイルカが見られ、出会いに感謝です。
ただ、「イルカと泳ぐ」ではなく、「水中で泳いでいくイルカを見る」イメージになります。また、今回のようにイルカ探しの時間が長くなると、シュノーケルを楽しむ時間はほとんどありません。それらを了承しないと空振り感があるかも。
また、私的にはチップの用意がなく、しまったなぁという思いです。払わないといけないものではないですが、いろいろ考えて動いてくださったガイドさんや船の運転手さんにぜひ心付けを。代金とは別に、チップをご用意をされていくとスマートかと思います。

モロキニ島シュノーケリングクルーズ ＜朝・昼食付／現地集合＞

The Japanese staff are the best! 日本人スタッフ最高！

Reviewed by: YUJI

The Japanese staff were very kind, helping us look for sea turtles and showing us snorkeling spots. I asked for her name, but I couldn't hear it over the sound of the boat engine, so I don't know her name. The Japanese staff member (a woman) was very friendly, and we had a wonderful day. Thank you very much.

日本人スタッフの方が、一緒にウミガメを探してくれたり、シュノーケリングスポットを教えてくれたりとても良い方で、
名前を聞いたのですが、船のエンジン音で聞こえなかったので名前がわかりませんが、日本人スタッフの方（女性）がとても親切で楽しい一日を過ごせました。
ありがとうございました。
