Hawaii
Seeing the turtles was so fun and the guys that helped us get all set were amazing. They filled our drinks after and made she we were well taken care of.
It was my first time snorkeling, but they were very kind and taught me well, allowing me to enjoy it. I'm glad I chose to do it here; I felt safe. The two instructors were friendly and approachable, and they were amazing. Thank you!
初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、とても親切に教えて下さり、楽しむことができました。
ここで頼んでよかったです、安心です。
インストラクターのお二人が親切で親しみやすく最高でした、ありがとうございました。
Dear Mimiyuki, thank you for joining the tour. I’m very happy to hear that you enjoyed your first snorkeling experience, and both Dan and I are thrilled. Please do join us again when you come back to Hawaii. Let’s swim together again! We are always waiting for you. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
mimiyuki様、この度はツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。
初めてのシュノーケリングの楽しんでいただけた様で、私もDanもとても嬉しく思います。是非またハワイにお越しの際にはツアーにリピートしてくださいね。
また一緒に泳ぎましょう!!いつでもお待ちしております。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
Depending on the time of day and the effects of high tide, the sandy beach may be visible. When we went, it was completely submerged, with seawater up to our waists.
時間帯によって、満潮等の影響で、砂浜が見えたりらしいです。
我々が行ったときは、全く見えなかった。腰ぐらいまで海水がありました。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. The scenery at Paradise of the Sea and the sandbar may vary depending on the weather, but we will continue to strive to ensure your satisfaction with snorkeling, activities, and meals regardless of natural conditions. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit.
アロハ!この度はキャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーへのご参加誠にありがとうございました。天国の海、サンドバーは天候等によってご覧いただける景色が異なることもございますが、自然条件に関わらずシュノーケリングやアクティビティ、そしてお食事などでツアーにご満足いただけますよう努力を重ねてまいります。またの機会にお越しいただけますことをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I had a great time. I got to see dolphins, turtles and got to feed some colorful fish.
Outstanding Crew- excellent service...beautiful venue...fun packed day
The guide was cheerful and fun, and the hamburgers were delicious! The water level on the day was about waist-high, but playing beach volleyball was also enjoyable, and it was the best experience. We encountered many sea turtles as well.
I want to participate in this tour again!
ガイドさんが陽気で楽しく、ハンバーガーも美味しかった!当日の水位は腰くらいまでありましたが、ビーチバレーも楽しかったし最高でした。ウミガメにもたくさん出会えました。
また参加したいツアーです!
The organizers, both men and women, were very kind, and the entire experience was satisfying. This was my fifth trip to Hawaii, but I discovered new things about Hawaii.
主催者側の方達も男性、女性共とても親切で終始満足できる内容でした。
ハワイ旅行は5回目ですが新しいハワイの発見でした。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Heavenly Ocean Tour. It was a pleasure to discover a new side of Hawaii! It makes you think, "Wow, there’s this kind of Hawaii too!" We sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。新しいハワイの発見!嬉しいです。こんなハワイもあるんだなーって思いますよね!!またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
It was disappointing because of the cloudy sky. If the weather had been nice, it would have been a point boost, but unfortunately, there's nothing we can do about that. Also, the air conditioning on the shuttle bus was too strong. I had read in reviews that there would be towels on the seats of the return bus, but there weren't any. I thought it might be necessary to announce that large bath towels are essential.
曇り空で残念でした。天気が良ければポイントアップだつたのですが残念。こればかりはどうしようもないですが。あと送迎バスの冷房が効き過ぎでした。帰りのバスの座席にタオルがひいてある、と口コミがあったのねすが、ありませんでした。大きなバスタオルは必須とアナウンスすべきかな、と思いました。
It seems that it rained in the morning, so unfortunately the sandbar was about waist-deep. However, I was able to see sea turtles clearly from the cruise, and snorkeling was also fun! There was a Japanese guide, which made me feel at ease.
朝に雨が降っていたみたいで残念ながらサンドバーは腰あたりの深さでした。
でもクルーズからしっかりウミガメ見ることができたしシュノーケリングも楽しかったです!!
ガイドさんも日本人の方もいて安心でした。
日本人のガイドのかたもいて、英語が苦手でも楽しく過ごせました。
サンドバーはとても美しく、バレーボールをみんなでやり、とても良い思い出ができました。
We had 2 adults and an 8 year old. Everyone loved it - the snorkelling was brilliant .... loads of fish and the water was so clear.
It was great having the other activities available also. The staff on the boat were friendly and helpful too. Great experience.
Mike's guidance was excellent. I was very satisfied with the wild dolphins and snorkeling. By chance, we also had the boat to ourselves, which made for great memories. I want to go to the Big Island of Hawaii again.
マイクさんのガイド最高でした。野生のイルカ、シュノーケル大満足でした。たまたまボートも貸し切りになり、良い思い出になりました。またハワイ島行きたいです
マハロ・ヌイ(大変ありがとうございます)5つ星のレビューとビッグアイランドへのご訪問にご参加いただき、感謝いたします!滞在の残りも楽しんでいただけたことを願っています!
Mahalo nui for the 5 star review and joining us on your visit to the Big Island! We hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay!
You can have an amazing time even with small children! The sea was beautiful, truly a paradise. On the day of the tour, we met at the location specified by Veltra, which was accurately shown on Google Maps! It's no surprise that this tour is so popular. They also provide inflatable rings and stand-up paddleboards, which made it so much fun! If you want to take lots of photos, don't forget your waterproof gear. I wanted to capture some sea turtles, but unfortunately, all the footage I got was video... My daughter was super excited, shouting "Turtle, turtle!" so that was the best part!
Since we had our child with us, we didn't go snorkeling, but I hope to try snorkeling once my daughter learns how to swim.
The lunch on the boat, especially the malasadas, was really delicious!
小さな子連れでもめちゃくちゃ楽しめる!
そして、海が綺麗、まさに天国の海でした。
当日はレンタカーで現地集合(ベルトラから案内されていた集合先はGoogle マップで正確に出ました!)
こんなに人気なのも納得のツアーでした。
浮き輪やSUPも貸してもらえるし、楽しい楽しい!
写真をたくさん撮りたい方は防水グッズ忘れずに。
海亀も掲載したいのですが、撮ったのが全部動画だったため残念。。。
娘は「亀さん、亀さん」と大興奮で、楽しんでくれいたようなので何より!
子連れだったのでシュノーケルは行きませんでしたが、娘が泳げるようになったらシュノーケルしたいなー
船上のランチ、マラサダはとっても美味しかったですよ!
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating this time. We are delighted to have been able to help you create memories with your beloved family. We hope that next time you can join us for snorkeling with your children! All of our staff sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。大切なご家族との思い出作りをお手伝いできたこと、嬉しく思います。次回は是非、お子様とシュノーケルに参加できるといいですね!!またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
My first time on the Big Island! For our 30th wedding anniversary, my husband chose this tour for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The view of the Big Island from the sky was amazing. The highlight of this tour is landing at a waterfall. The waterfall, which can only be accessed by helicopter, is breathtaking. I highly recommend experiencing the growing beauty of the Big Island.
初めてのハワイ島!結婚30年の記念に一生に一度の体験をってことで主人がこのツアーを選びました。空からのハワイ島は素晴らしかったです。このツアーの目玉は滝への上陸です。ヘリでしか行くことのできない滝は絶景です。成長してるハワイ島をぜひ体験してみて欲しいです。
I waited quite a while at the pier after getting off the bus. Most of the people were part of a Japanese group, and I was a bit anxious about whether I was waiting in the right place. The boat that had left earlier returned, and we waited for it to be cleaned. So, I think I waited for about an hour in total. The sandbar was beautiful, and the hamburger was amazing. I was able to see a lot of sea turtles while watching them, which was very moving. However, I still can't forget the moment when a sea turtle collided with the boat just as we were about to go snorkeling... The shock was significant given how moved I was. The snorkeling was enjoyable, even though the waves were high. There was no problem going in a swimsuit, but having a change of clothes would make the return bus ride more comfortable. There is storage under the seats on the boat. If I come again, I would like to participate on a nice weather day and check the tide as well.
バスから降りた船乗り場でかなり待ちました。日本人団体がほとんどでしたが、ここで待っているのがあっているのか不安になりながら待っていました。先に出ていた船が戻ってきて、清掃するのを待っていました。なので全部で1時間ほど待った気がします。サンドバーは綺麗でした。ハンバーガーも最高でした。海亀のウォッチングもたくさん見れました。とても感動しました。ただ、シュノーケリングに行くという時に海亀1匹と船が衝突をしたのが今でも忘れられません…。感動していた分心への衝撃が大きかったです。シュノーケリングは波が高かったですが楽しめました。水着でいって問題はなかったですが、着替えがある方が帰りのバスは落ち着くと思います。船の座席の下に荷物入れはあります。また来ることがあれば、天候の良い日に、そして潮の満ち引きも確認して、参加したいです。
I made a reservation from Japan and participated in the trip on the fifth day of my Hawaii vacation. I was relieved that the bus driver was also Japanese. However, as we got closer to the location, the weather became increasingly ominous, and by the time we arrived at the sandbar, it was pouring rain... The rain continued until just before we were about to leave, and by the time we finally saw some clear skies, it was already time to go... I was a bit happy to see a rainbow at the end. I wasn't confident about snorkeling, but when I tried it, I surprisingly enjoyed it! I even spotted a few sea turtles!! The food was delicious!
日本から予約して、ハワイ旅行5日目に参加しました。バスの運転手さんも日本の方で安心しました。ただ、天気が現地に近くなる程雲行き怪しくなり、サンドバーに着く頃には土砂降りに…そして、帰る間際まで雨が降り続き晴れ間が見えた頃には帰る時間に…最後は虹が見えたのは少し嬉しかったです。シュノーケリングは自信がなかったのですが、挑戦してみたら意外にも楽しめました!ウミガメもちらほら見えました!!
ご飯は、美味しくいただけました!
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating this time. Although the weather was quite unfortunate, we are glad to hear that you enjoyed snorkeling, turtle watching, and the meal. We all sincerely look forward to welcoming you again on a sunny day at the sandbar.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。お天気はとても残念でしたが、シュノーケリング、ウミガメウォッチングやお食事ををお楽しみいただけたようで、嬉しく思います。またの機会にぜひ晴天のサンドバーにお越しいただけますことをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
It was an experience with professional hospitality. When I jumped off the large boat, I was excited to see dolphins and turtles swimming nearby and along the seabed. For snacks, we were served juicy beef patties in hamburgers, pineapple, snacks, and lemonade. I usually don't get seasick, but I felt a bit uneasy, so I didn't eat and took it back with me (there were some people who got sick). There was also a photographer on site who took pictures for us, which were available for purchase. I was a little anxious about snorkeling for the first time, but I had no worries and enjoyed it. I'm glad I participated and I recommend it.
プロのおもてなしをうけた体験でした 大きい船から飛び降りるとイルカも亀も近くや海底を泳ぐのが見えて興奮しました 肉肉しいパテのハンバーガーとパイナップルとスナック菓子、レモネードが軽食で出ました いつも酔わないのですが なんか 嫌な感じがしたので食べずに持ち帰りました(酔っていた人もいました)カメラマンも常駐していたので撮ってくれます 売ってます 初めてのシュノーケルで少し不安でしたが 何も心配はなく楽しめました 参加して良かったです おススメします
The attention and hospitality from the captain and crew were outstanding! They spoke Japanese, and their explanations were both interesting and easy to understand, allowing us to participate with peace of mind. The crew offered to take our pictures, which made us very happy since we were traveling as a couple. We were able to see sea turtles multiple times. My friend, who couldn't participate in snorkeling, was offered alternatives like stand-up paddleboarding and a short cruise, making it a very satisfying tour for both of us. Even during the farewell, they waved goodbye, and on the bus ride back, we heard others saying, "The hospitality is just amazing." I'm really glad we participated.
キャプテン、クルー皆さんの気配り、おもてなしが最高でした!日本語okで、説明も面白くわかりやすく、安心して参加できました。クルーの皆さんが「写真を撮ってあげる!」と声をかけてくださり、二人旅行だった私たちはとても嬉しかったです。ウミガメも何度も見られました。一緒に参加した友人は、シュノーケリングに参加できませんでしたがその代わりにSUPや短時間クルーズに声をかけていただき、お互いに大満足のツアーでした。お見送りも最後まで、手を振って、帰りのバスでは周りの皆さんからも「おもてなしが素晴らしすぎる」と声が聞こえてきました。本当に参加してよかったです。
Aloha! This is the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating. We are delighted to hear that you were satisfied with our staff's service and hospitality. We sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。スタッフのサービス、おもてなしに満足していただけたようで嬉しく思います。またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
We participated as a pair. On the day of the event, we were guided by Daisuke and Ray.
We had four tries and were able to see many more dolphins than we expected, with some coming just a few meters away, which was truly moving! My companion couldn't swim, but they lent us a flotation device and helped pull us to a spot where we could see the dolphins, showing great care. Thanks to them, my companion was able to snorkel for the first time during this trip, and we are very grateful. Although my companion was initially scared, they felt reassured and able to participate thanks to the support from both of them. We would love to join again!
2名で参加しました。当日はDaisukeさん、Rayさんに案内していただきました。
計4回のトライで期待以上に沢山のイルカに会え、数メートル先に来てくれるイルカもおり、感動しました!
連れが泳げなかったのですが、浮棒を貸してくださり、イルカの見えるポイントに引っ張って連れて行ってくれたりと気にかけていただき今回の旅を通して唯一シュノーケリングすることができ大変感謝しています。最初は怖かったそうですが、お二人のサポートに安心して参加できたそうです。また参加したいです!
This is my second time participating, and since the last tour was in the early morning, there were fewer people, and I felt like I could see the sea turtles and fish up close. This time, I could see the sea turtles from a distance, but they didn't come close. It's a shame that the early morning tours are only available until mid-September.
2回目の参加なのですが、前回早朝のツアーだったので人数も少なく、ウミガメも魚も近くで見れた気がします。今回はウミガメは遠くから見えましたが近くまでは来ませんでした。早朝のツアーが9月半ばまでしかないのが残念でした。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. I see that you joined us for the early morning sunrise tour last time! Thank you. The sunrise tour is conducted to coincide with the sunrise, so it is only available during the summer months. However, we have plans available throughout the day, including morning tours, a Kailua stopover plan, and an afternoon BBQ tour, so we would be very happy if you could experience another tour on your next visit. All of our staff sincerely look forward to welcoming you back.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。前回は早朝のサンライズツアーにご参加いただいたのですね!ありがとうございます。サンライズツアーは日の出のお時間に合わせて催行しているので夏季限定となっておりますが、モーニングツアー、カイルア立ち寄りプラン、そして午後出発のBBQツアーなど1日を通してサンドバーをお楽しみいただけるようにプランをご用意しておりますので、またの機会に是非別のツアーも体験頂けましたらとても嬉しく思います。またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I participated in late November.
I think there are seasonal issues, but the waves were strong and the current was fast, causing many people to get seasick.
I saw that the boat is new and large, which supposedly makes it less shaky, but don't get your hopes up. The boat rocked, and after going into the rough sea with waves and strong currents two or three times, it really drained my energy and made me more prone to seasickness! For those participating, if you determine that the current is strong, I think it's better to just float and look down rather than trying to swim. Even if you're confident in your swimming skills, it's not just about that. Please be careful not to overestimate your abilities.
I was able to see dolphins both on the boat and in the water, but that's purely a matter of luck. I've seen promotional photos where many dolphins come close, but you shouldn't expect that. I think many people only catch a glimpse of them from a distance.
If you're just looking to see dolphins, there are other places where you can see and interact with them. You can also go snorkeling in beautiful, calm waters elsewhere. Unless you really want to see wild dolphins, I wouldn't particularly recommend this experience.
11月下旬に参加。
時期的な問題もあると思うが波があり潮の流れも早く、
多くの方が船酔いしていました。
船が新しく大きいから揺れにくいというのを見たけど
期待してはいけません。
船上で揺れた上、波があり潮がキツイ海に2度、3度入るとかなりの体力を消耗し、酔いやすくなります!
参加される方は、潮がキツイと判断したらただ浮いて下を見て浮いてるくらいに留めておいた方がいいかと思います。
泳ぎには自信があってもそういう問題ではないのだなと感じました。とにかく過信しないようにして下さい。
船上でも海中でもイルカを見れましたがこればかりは運です。プロモーションで多くのイルカが近くに寄ってきている写真を見ますがこれは期待してはいけません。かなり遠くで一瞬見れただけという人も多いと思います。
イルカだけなら他にも見れますし、触れ合える場所もあります。綺麗で穏やかな海でシュノーケリングも他で出来ます。
野生のイルカをとにかく見たい!という方以外には特にオススメするものでもないかなあ
This is a great, fun tour for groups and solo travelers alike. The staff is super friendly and helpful, going out of their way to make sure your experience is top notch. The diver propulsion vehicles are an extra bonus that no other tour operator offers that set apart Trident Adventures from others. Will definitely do again upon my next visit to Oahu.
So glad you had an awesome time! Thanks for joining us and we look forward to seeing you on your next visit to Oahu.
I was worried about getting seasick since I get motion sickness on airplanes, but after taking some motion sickness medication, I didn't feel sick at all! The captain's driving was amazing! During snorkeling, I saw a lot of fish, and a sea turtle even rushed towards us. I was told not to touch it, but it came over to me, so I couldn't help it, haha. The BBQ meat during the meal was very delicious. It's a shame I couldn't eat much because I was worried about seasickness. The staff's conversations were entertaining, and they even took a two-shot photo with us, making it a very fulfilling tour.
飛行機でも酔う程なので、船酔いが心配でしたが、酔い止めをのんだら全く船酔いしませんでした!船長さんの運転が素晴らしい!!シュノーケリングでは、魚もたくさん見れたし、海ガメがこちらに突進してきてきました。触ってはいけないと言われてたけど、海ガメから触りに来たから仕方ない笑 食事ではBBQのお肉がとても美味しかったです。船酔いが心配だったのであまり食べられなかったのが残念。スタッフの皆さんのトークが面白いし、ツーショット写メも撮ってくれてとても充実したツアーでした。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Kaneohe Bay is relatively calm, so it is said that seasickness is less common compared to cruises in Waikiki. However, some guests may still experience it, so we are glad to hear that you took precautions against seasickness and were able to enjoy the tour until the end! We all sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。 カネオヘ湾は比較的波も穏やかなので、ワイキキなどのクルーズと比べては船酔いは少ないとされております。が、それでも寄ってしまうお客様もいらっしゃいますので、船酔い対策をしてきていただき、最後までツアーを楽しんでいただけたようで、良かったです!!またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
We participated as a couple at the end of October. Once on board, we started with breakfast. The muffins and other simple offerings were all delicious, and there was a good selection of coffee, tea, and soft drinks.
The snorkeling itself was beautiful with plenty of fish, but compared to the remote islands of Okinawa, it was a bit disappointing. After snorkeling, lunch was also delicious and enjoyable.
Later, we got to see dolphins swimming alongside the boat, jumping multiple times, and then we had another snorkeling session. It was a fun-filled experience, and if we have the chance, we would love to participate again.
10月末に夫婦で参加しました。
乗船すると、まずは朝ごはん。シンプルながら用意されたマフィンなどはどれも美味しくコーヒー紅茶やソフトドリンクも充実してます。
シュノーケル自体は、魚がいっぱいで綺麗でしたがまあそれは、沖縄離島とかに比べちゃうと少し残念かな?
シュノーケルのあと、お昼も美味しかったし楽しかったです。
その後はイルカが船と併走して何度も何度もジャンプしたりするのを見られ、再びシュノーケルタイム。
盛りだくさんで楽しかったので、また行く事があれば参加したいです。
Aloha,

Excursion was made online but had to be changed by email to the next day after the planned event. It all happened seamlessly! Thank you. We will use you again!
We made online reservations for the next day to Hanauma Bay snorkeling but had to change the reservation day and time and within a few short hours they change was made through email and the trip and driver were very nice!
I was able to see a lot of fish, and it became my favorite memory from my trip to Hawaii! I’m not good at swimming, and it was my husband’s first time snorkeling, but thanks to Chieko's careful support while I was swimming, I was able to swim with peace of mind. I didn’t have an underwater camera, but Dan took many photos and kindly provided them through Facebook, which was a great help. Chieko and Dan were very cheerful, and the atmosphere during the tour was always pleasant and fun. Thank you so much!
たくさんのお魚が見れて、ハワイ旅行で1番楽しい思い出になりました!
私は泳ぐのが苦手で、夫はシュノーケリング初めてだったのですが、ちえこさんが泳いでいる間もずっと丁寧にサポートしてくださったおかげで、安心して泳ぎ切ることができました。
水中カメラを持っていなかったのですが、代わりにダンさんがたくさんの写真を撮ってFacebook通じて提供してくださるので大変助かります。
ちえこさんとダンさんがとても明るく、ツアー中ずっと和やかな雰囲気で楽しかったです。本当にありがとうございました。
Dear Sada, thank you for joining the Blue Hawaii Divers tour. I am truly happy and honored to hear that it became your most enjoyable memory of your trip to Hawaii! We will continue to strive to ensure that first-time customers have a great experience, so we hope you will consider repeating your visit the next time you come to Hawaii. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
sada様、この度はブルーハワイダイバースのツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。
ハワイ旅行で1番の楽しい思い出になっただなんて、私もDANも本当に嬉しく大変光栄に思います!!
これからも初めてのお客様に楽しんでいただける様に頑張りますので、またハワイにお越しの際にはリピートしていただければと思います。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
I was helped when they called me at the hotel 30 minutes before the meeting time. Also, the Japanese guide, Karen, and the other staff were very energetic, and I was able to participate without getting seasick.
The boat was new and had a slide, which made it really fun. I felt a thrill when sliding down the slide, haha.
I was able to see dolphins three times. The final dance by the staff was very uplifting, and it was so much fun to dance along with them.
At the end, they even put stickers on my favorite parts of my body. ^_^
集合時間30分前にホテルに電話をくれたので助かりました。また、日本人ガイドのカレンさんや他のスタッフの方もとても元気で船酔いもせず参加できました。
船も新らしくて滑り台も付いていたのでとっても楽しかったです。滑り台から滑るときはドキドキしました笑笑
いるかも3回見ることができました。スタッフろ方最後の踊りはとってもまた元気が出る踊りで一緒に踊れてとっても楽しかったです。
最後に体の好きなところに、シールも貼ってくれました^_^
The staff were very good at getting everyone excited and were great at talking. On the bus to the coast and when we first boarded the boat, they talked about various things like the spinner dolphins we were going to see that day, Hawaii, and snorkeling. I was particularly anxious since it was my first time snorkeling, but they answered any questions I had.
Dolphins are spotted visually rather than using radar, so everyone looked out at the sea together, fostering a sense of unity among all the passengers.
Not only did we see spinner dolphins, but we also spotted wild bottlenose dolphins, and there were many large sea turtles swimming around.
The ocean was incredibly beautiful, and I thought, "This is definitely Hawaii."
スタッフさんはとても盛り上げ方が上手で話し上手でした。
海岸まで行くバスの中や、船に乗り込んだ最初は、この日見に行くハシナガイルカのこと、ハワイのこと、シュノーケルのことなどいろいろ話してくださいます。
特にシュノーケルが初めてで不安はありましたが、聞けば何でも答えてくれました。
イルカはレーダーなどではなく、目視で見つけるため、全員で一緒に海を眺めたりして、乗っているみんなの一致団結力も芽生えます。
ハシナガイルカだけではなく、野生のバンドウイルカも見ることができたり、大きなウミガメもたくさん泳いでいました。
海はとっても綺麗で、さすがハワイだなーと思いました。
ALOHA!

It's natural, so there's nothing we can do about it, but even though we floated for 40 to 50 minutes, we only got to see them for a few seconds. The guide, Sean, said, "Did you see them? There were two, right? That's great!" but the truth is, there wasn't even time to take a photo. Plus, they were small. Is there a season when you can see large mantas or multiple mantas? In any case, it didn't feel like we really saw them. I was disappointed because I had the image of the whale sharks I saw in the Philippines in mind.
自然モノですから仕方ないのですが、40〜50分は浮かんでいたのに見れたのはほんの数秒でした。ガイドのショーンは「見れた? 二枚居たでしょ? 良かったね」と言っていたけれど、実際のところ写真を撮る暇もなかった。しかも小さい。大きなマンタ、はたまた何枚ものマンタを見れるシーズンがあるのでしょうか? いずれにせよ、見た感は無かった。フィリピンで見たジンベイザメのイメージがあったので、残念でした。
ALOHA!
Thank you for participating in the Manta University.
Since this is a tour with wild animals, the conditions vary every day.
We would be grateful if you could join us again when you come to Hawaii.
