All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

We participated as a family. The manta rays appeared right away, but they were a bit far away, so I thought, "Well, this is how it goes." However, as time passed, more and more came—five in total! (I hear manta rays are counted one by one.) They approached with their mouths open, almost as if I could be swallowed! It was incredibly moving!

What I regret the most is not having photos from that moment. I really hope there are rental options available for use on the day. If you're participating, it's definitely better to bring your own! You’ll be able to take some amazing pictures.

Thank you so much to all the staff. Mahalo!!

家族で参加しました。マンタはすぐ現れましたが、少し離れた所だったので、まあ、こんなもんかと思っていましたが、そのあと時間がたつにつれて、来るは　来るは5匹も出現!(マンタは１枚２枚と数えるそうですね)
口を開けて、近ずいてきて飲み込まれそうなほど!!　大感激でした!!
心残りは、そのときの写真がないことです。ぜひ、レンタルでも当日使用できるものがあるといいなと思いました。参加する方は、ぜったい持っていくほうが良いですよ！　ものすごい写真が撮れることでしょう。
スタッフの皆様、本当に有難うございました。マハロ!!

This is my third time, and I was able to see sea turtles. I think there’s no better tour than this, so I definitely recommend participating. I suggest making an early reservation.

3回目ですが、ウミガメにあえました。こんなに良ツアーは
ないから絶対参加した方がいいと思います
早めの予約をお薦めします

This was my second time at Sandbar. I had previously known about Captain Bruce's tours but had avoided them due to the cost. This time, I booked it at the request of my companion, and I received services that exceeded the price. The food on the boat was delicious, and the number of people on the tour was not too large. The staff was kind, and I had a great time.

サンドバーは2度目でした。以前も、キャプテンブルースのツアーは知っていましたが、料金面で避けておりました。
今回は、同行者の希望でこちらを予約しましたが、料金以上のサービスを受けられました。
船上の食事も美味しかったですし、ツアーの人数も多すぎず、スタッフも親切で楽しかったです。

The waves were really strong, and I got seasick. It's a shame I couldn't swim with the dolphins even though I encountered them. It was great that I could get on the boat with a wheelchair. I wasn't sure where the barbecue lunch was held.

波が凄く酔ってしまいました
イルカと遭遇できたのに一緒に泳げなかったのが残念でした。車椅子でも船に乗る事が出来たのは良かったです。バーベキューランチは何処で行って頂けていたのか？分かりませんでした。

I participated five years ago, and although it was tough, it became a wonderful memory, so I joined again this time, but I was disappointed.

The meeting time was set for 5:55 AM, but the staff arrived more than 30 minutes late. During that time, a staff member from Dolphin University came, but without saying a word to the anxious middle school participants, they only took attendance for the university participants and left. The staff who arrived late, including someone who claimed to be the president, only said, "I'm sorry for the trouble," without explaining why they were late. They repeatedly mentioned how hectic it was, but that doesn't concern the participants. I believe they should at least properly explain the circumstances behind the delay.

We set out to sea about 30 minutes late, but in the end, we only saw dolphins for a few seconds. Later, several staff members told us, "The dolphins were far away today." I understand that luck plays a role, but I couldn't help but think that if there hadn't been a delay, we might have seen more.

Five years ago, we entered the sea multiple times to see dolphins, but this time we only saw them for a few seconds before moving to a shallower area to snorkel at a spot with coral. Honestly, there are other places with prettier coral than here, and I felt that it wasn't necessary to do this in Hawaii.

During snorkeling, I was told beforehand that it was okay to remove flotation devices, but since no one had taken them off, I asked a woman who seemed to be the captain for confirmation. Without looking up from her phone, she said, "If you can swim, then," which felt a bit rude.

I also purchased photos, and while we were able to take turns on the boat, the only photos taken while swimming were group photos. I was diving to see turtles while snorkeling, but there were no pictures of me or my friend in the water, so I would have appreciated more consideration for capturing moments in the sea.

I understand that the situation with the dolphins depends on luck, but this time, I was disappointed with the staff's response in various aspects.

5年前にも参加し、ハードだったけどすごくいい思い出になったので再度参加しましたが、今回はガッカリしました。

05:55という早朝の集合時間でしたが、スタッフが来たのは30分以上過ぎてから。途中イルカ大学のスタッフが来ましたが、不安な顔をしている中学の参加者に一声もかけずに、大学参加者の点呼だけ取って行ってしまいました。
遅れてきたスタッフも学長だという方も「トラブルでバタバタしてすいませんでした」と言うだけで、なぜ遅れたのか理由も説明されませんでした。バタバタして大変だったと何度も言われましたが、大変だったのは参加者側には関係ないことです。なぜ遅れたかの事情の説明くらいはきちんとするべきだと思います。

30分ほど出航が遅れた状態で海に出ましたが、結局イルカが見れたのは数秒だけ。後から複数のスタッフに「今日はイルカが遠くに行ってた」と言われました。運に左右されるのは理解してますが、遅れなければもっと見れたかもしれないんじゃ？と思わざるを得ませんでした。

5年前は何度か場所を変えてイルカを見に海に入りましたが、今回は数秒見てイルカは終了、浅めの場所へ移動してサンゴがあるところでシュノーケルになりました。正直ここよりサンゴが綺麗な海は他にあるし、わざわざハワイでしなくてもいいなあという感想でした。
シュノーケルの際、事前に浮具を外してもいいと言われていましたが、誰も外していなかったので確認のために船長？の女性に声をかけた際、顔も上げずに携帯を見ながら「泳げるならね」と言われたのもちょっと感じが悪かったです。

また写真を購入しましたが、船上では順番に撮っていただけましたが、泳いでいる最中の写真は集合写真のみ。シュノーケルでカメを見に潜ったりしてましたが、私と友人の海での写真は一枚もなかったので、海でも満遍なく撮影するよう配慮していただきたかったです。

イルカの状況が運次第なのは納得していますが、今回はいろんな面でスタッフの方々の対応が残念でした。

The night sea is a bit scary, but I was able to see manta rays up close! They seemed smaller than I expected. I think it was along the coast near the airport. Mantas around Keauhou might be larger. However, it was a wonderful experience to see their bellies and mouths so clearly! The staff is friendly, but there is only one Japanese guide for the mixed tour with foreigners. Be careful after coming out of the water, as it gets cold! It's better to have a bath towel or something to wear.

夜の海はちょっと怖いけど、至近距離でマンタ見れました！思ってたよりマンタのサイズが小さいかな？空港から近い沿岸だったと思います。ケアウホウ付近のほうがマンタが大きいのかもしれないですね。でもお腹も口の中も丸見えで素晴らしい体験でした！
スタッフが親切ですが日本語ガイドさんは一人で外国人と混合ツアーです。海から上がったあとは寒いので要注意！バスタオル、羽織るものがあった方がいいです。

I was so excited for my first tour swimming with dolphins! However, I’m not a great swimmer and hadn’t swum in about ten years, so I was a bit nervous wondering if I would be okay. But there was absolutely no problem at all.

Lucky for us, a large pod of dolphins came by multiple times, and I lost count of how many dives we did. Interestingly, no other boats were out that day, so it felt like we had Aloha Tours all to ourselves.

When we got really close to the dolphins, they didn’t seem to avoid us at all and showed such curious expressions; they were so cute! I was moved by the sight of dolphins playing with each other, a mother and her baby swimming together, their adorable sounds, and the beautiful bubbles created by their breathing sparkling through the curtain of light. It was a wonderful experience to be in such a beautiful, mysterious world, and the time spent with them became a cherished memory.

Also, Daisuke's bubble ring diving performance was amazing; he looked just like a dolphin! Lei was always cracking jokes, which kept the atmosphere lively and made it so much fun! Thank you so much for allowing us to meet the dolphins!!

初めてイルカと一緒に泳ぐツアーにワクワク！しかし泳ぎは得意じゃないし、もう１０年位は泳いでいなかったので（いきなり大丈夫か？）とドキドキでしたが全く問題なかったです。
ラッキーなことに何度もイルカの大群がやって来て何度ダイブしたか分からなくなる程でした。またこの日は何故か他の船が一隻も出港しておらず、アロハツアーズ貸切状態でした。

イルカ達と大接近した時も私達を避ける様子もなく、興味ありげな表情を見せてとても可愛かったです。イルカ同士がじゃれ合っている様子や親子で泳ぐ姿、可愛い鳴き声、そしてイルカの呼吸でできた美しい泡が、光のカーテンの中をキラキラと流れていく光景に感動しました。美しい神秘の世界にお邪魔させて頂き、共に過ごせた一時が幸せでとても良い思い出になりました。
また、ダイスケさんのバブルリング潜りのパフォーマンスも素晴らしく、まるでイルカのようでしたヨ！レイさんもジョークを飛ばして船上では常に盛り上がりとても楽しかったです！イルカちゃん達に会わせて頂き、本当にありがとうございました！！

I thought snorkeling would be about swimming close to dolphins, but what I actually saw was dolphins swimming quickly below. After the snorkeling ended and we got back on the boat, I was lucky enough to see a large group of dolphins up close, and I thought it would have been great to snorkel with them at that moment! I heard that this was still considered lucky.

However, since it’s nature, I had to convince myself that it can’t be helped. The dolphin snorkeling was a bit disappointing in that sense, but unexpectedly, I also got to see turtles while snorkeling and tried stand-up paddleboarding for the first time, which was really fun. The staff were great too! The weather was beautiful, and it was a really enjoyable experience.

Since it’s nature, I guess luck with the weather plays a role, and while it was different from my image of dolphin snorkeling, I had a great time.

シュノーケリングでイルカ、思ってたのは近くでイルカと泳ぐという感じだったけど、実際見れたのは、下の方を早いスピードで泳ぐイルカを見る、というものでした。
シュノーケリングが終わり船に上がってからの方が、運良く近くでイルカの群れを大量に見るという感じで、この時にイルカと一緒にシュノーケリングできたらいいなぁと思いました！これでも運が良いらしいです。
でも、自然が相手だからしょうがないかな、と自分を納得させ。
イルカシュノーケリングはそういう意味で期待外れだったけど、まさかのシュノーケリングで亀も見れたし、はじめてSUPをしてみたりと、とても面白かったです。スタッフの方もいい感じでした！晴天ですごく良かった、面白かったです。
やっぱり自然相手なので、天気など運も関係するのでしょう、イルカシュノーケリングのイメージとは違ったけどとても楽しめました。

Great experience but wish it was with better weather. High tide and very choppy waters made visibility difficult. Still a good opportunity!

The early morning pickup was surprisingly ahead of schedule! It wasn't Hawaiian time! (laughs)

It took about an hour to reach the harbor. We had to wait on the boat for a while before encountering dolphins. However, we eventually came across a pod of dolphins!

When jumping into the water, you need to go with momentum; otherwise, it might be scary for those who aren't used to diving or snorkeling. We changed locations a few times and dove three times in total. It was quite intense (of course, it's okay to stay on the boat if you get tired).

Unfortunately, we didn't see many dolphins underwater, but after getting back on the boat, we encountered a pod of nearly 100 dolphins! After dolphin watching, we moved to a snorkeling point where we saw turtles and played with stand-up paddleboarding (SUP).

It was quite a packed experience, and the crew was cheerful, making the time fly by. I would love to participate again.

Oh, the eco-bag that serves as a substitute for a graduation certificate can be picked up at the Waikiki office (2nd floor of Waikiki Shopping Plaza) after returning to Waikiki. Surprisingly, it comes in handy for shopping in Japan, so I recommend getting it! (laughs)

1早朝のお迎えでしたが時間よりも早くバスが迎えにきました。ハワイアンタイムではないことに驚き！笑
1時間ほどで船着場へ。
参加した会は中々イルカに出会えず暫く船上で待機をしました。が、無事イルカの群れに遭遇！
海に飛び込むときは勢いで行かないとダイビングやシュノーケルに慣れていない人は怖いかも…
何箇所か場所を変えて計3回ダイブしました。
結構ハードです（勿論疲れたら船の上に残っていてもOK）
残念ながら水中ではあまりイルカの姿を見られなかったのですが船に上がった後に100頭近くの群れに出会えました！
イルカウォッチの後はシュノーケルポイントへ移動して亀を見たりSUPをしたりして遊びました。
かなり盛り沢山でクルーの皆さんも明るくあっという間に時間が過ぎていきました。
また参加したいです。

あ、卒業証書替わりのエコバッグはワイキキに帰った後ワイキキのオフィス（ワイキキショッピングプラザ2F）へ貰いに行くパターンでした。
これが意外と日本で買い物をする時に使えるので貰っておくのがオススメです笑

It takes about 50 minutes by car from the hotel to the office, and then another 5 minutes by car to the harbor, so it was a bit nerve-wracking for us as it was our first time driving a rental car on the Big Island. The staff were all friendly, but there was no explanation after renting the GoPro, and we almost missed receiving our cards before disembarking. However, we enjoyed the two snorkeling sessions and the encounter with dolphins during sailing.

ホテルから車で50分程かかる事務所からハーバーまで更に車で5分かかるので、初めてハワイ島でレンタカーを運転する私達にはちょっと時間的にハラハラな集合でした。
スタッフの皆さんは気さくな方たちばかりでしたが、GoProをレンタルした後の説明がなく危うくカードを受け取れず下船するところでした。
でも2回のシュノーケルやセーリング中のイルカとの出会いは楽しめました。

We had a great time. Despite Neptune whipping sand up into the water making the clarity poor the crew made up for it and ensured we had a great time. We still saw green sea turtles both below and above the water. We had a great time just sailing the Cat when it was clear that snorkeling conditions weren't great.

I finally got to see a sea turtle! I was so happy to see it up close, and the guide was bright, fun, and amazing! I was also thrilled that I could do stand-up paddleboarding.

念願のウミガメに会えました！
近くで見ることが出来て嬉しかったし
ガイドさんが明るく楽しく最高でした！
サップが出来た事も嬉しかったです

I was thrilled to see dolphins so clearly! I didn't expect to see them up close, so it was truly moving. The slide activity was incredibly fun!

イルカがばっちり見れて最高でした！
こんなに近くで見れると思ってなかったので感動でした。
アクティビティの滑り台が最高に楽しかったです！

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.

日本語パイロットで　とても楽しい機内　キラウエア火山の噴火口を詳しく説明、ヒロの町に行くまで曇ってましたが　ワイピオ渓谷に行くと晴れてて　滝への着陸で３０分位の休憩　なかなか体験出来ないことが　現実に体験出来て良かったです。

Departure at 11:00 is great. If you take the first flight, you might end up boarding the boat sleep-deprived, which can make you more prone to seasickness. So, for those who are sensitive, I recommend the second departure to get a good sleep, enjoy breakfast slowly, take some motion sickness medication, and then head to the boat! Thanks to that, I was able to fully enjoy the activities on the boat without getting seasick.

All the staff were cheerful, and I felt just as relaxed as I did with the dolphins! In Japan, every day is about worrying if you have to conform to certain expectations, but participating in this tour reminded me of the importance of living authentically. I got to see many dolphins and colorful fish, and I was able to fully experience the Hawaiian sea without getting bored, thanks to activities like SUP and the slide on the boat! Mahalo!

11時出発、すごくいいです。1便だと、睡眠不足で船に乗ることになるので、酔いやすい方は2便の出発にして、よく寝て、朝食をゆっくり食べて、酔い止め飲んで船へ！お陰様で、酔うことなく船でのアクティビティを全力で楽しむことができました。
スタッフは全員愉快で、イルカと同じくらい癒されました！日本だと◯◯でなければならないと人に気をつかう毎日ですが、このツアーに参加して自分らしく生きることの大切さを思い出した気がしました。たくさんのイルカ、カラフルな魚にも会えて、SUPや船についてるスベリ台など、飽きずにハワイの海を全身に感じることができました！mahalo！

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')

またぜひ、参加したいと思います(〃ω〃)ノ

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。

Excellent experience!!
Very beautiful place and our family really enjoy!!

This was my third time. Each time, I rate it as the most enjoyable activity for my family. The hospitality of the guides is excellent. The hamburgers on the boat are delicious too. Don't forget the $5 for beer. We always see sea turtles, but this time we were able to see a manta ray. Everyone was thrilled. I will work hard again to return to the sandbar soon.

これで、３度目でした。毎回家族で一番楽しかったアクティビティと評価しています。とにかく、ガイドの方々のホスピタリティがいいです。船の上のハンバーガーもうまいです。ビール代５ドルも忘れずに。毎回海がめは見れるのですが、今回はマンタ様を拝見できました。一同感激でした。早くサンドバーに
戻る為、またお仕事頑張ります。

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。
ワイキキ近くでも予想以上に楽しめました！

Dan arrived early for pick up at our hotel entrance. =) My wife and I have very little to no snorkeling experience, and our swimming experience is very limited. However, Dan and Cheiko made our adventure possible, great for beginners. Dan simplified the instructions to make it easy, fun, and safe for all. Cheiko was excellent in ensuring safety for me as I needed a bit more help/guidance. Saw lots of fishes and would do this all over again.

I saw dolphins a few times. It might be a luxury, but this is my evaluation of the tour.

First, make sure to arrive early when boarding the boat. The staff will ask you to fill in from the back, but those who know will sit in the front.

Sitting in the front makes it easier to secure a spot near the staff who are aware of where the dolphins are, as people in the front will jump into the sea first.

Also, it’s inconvenient if there’s no basket for your belongings under you, so try to sit where there is a basket.

You will inevitably have to swim close to the staff. Other guests may kick you or push you aside, but keep moving forward without giving up.

After seeing the dolphins, the staff will say, “Those who haven’t seen a dolphin yet, please come to the front,” but those who are at a distance where they can’t see the dolphins at that point cannot move forward.

This is because those who have seen the dolphins do not give up their spots.

The staff warns not to touch the dolphins beforehand, but even when someone tried to touch them, they didn’t seem to pay much attention.

It’s possible that the group I participated in had a lot of people, and that’s why there were such guests.

At the very least, I felt that it was an unfair tour where some people could see many dolphins while others could not, even though we all paid the same amount.

I don’t think the number of people who can board the boat is the same as the number of people who can enjoy the tour.

It’s dangerous to be kicked by fins, and I think it would have been better to sign up for an experience where you can swim with dolphins at an aquarium instead of insisting on wild dolphins.

イルカは数回、見えました。
贅沢かもしれませんが、それでもツアーとしては
この評価です。

まず、船に乗る際は早めに行きましょう。
スタッフに奥から詰めるように言われますが
分かっている人は手前に座ります。

手前に座っている人から海に飛び込むため
イルカの場所を把握しているスタッフさんの
近くの場所を確保しやすいからです。

また、自分の下に荷物のかごがないと不便なので
下にかごがある場所に座りましょう。

スタッフさんの近くまで泳ぐのは必至で泳ぎます。
他のお客さんに蹴られますし、手で押しのけられますが負けずに進みましょう。

イルカを見た後スタッフの方が
「一度もイルカを見ていない人は前に」といいますが
その時点でイルカが見えない距離にいる人は
前に行けません。

イルカを見た人が前を譲らないからです。

イルカには触らないようにとスタッフの方が事前に注意していますが
触ろうとした人がいても、特に注意をしていませんでした。

私が参加した回が人数が多く、たまたまそういうお客さんだった
可能性もありますが、

すくなくとも、同じお金を払い同じ回に参加したとしても
たくさん見れる人と見れない人がいる不公平なツアーだと感じました。

船に乗れる人数とツアーを楽しめる人数は同じではないと思います。

フィンのついた足で蹴られるので危ないですし
別に野生のイルカにこだわらなくても
水族館のイルカと泳げるものに申し込んだ方がよかったと思っています。

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
イルカもそうだがあんまり海に慣れていない人は危ないと思う。
マンタは優雅に泳ぐので動画おすすめ

Great crew With outstanding service! What an experience!

The waves were calm and it was very comfortable.
However, I think it's better for those who are feeling unwell or are prone to seasickness to prepare some anti-nausea medication.
I applied for the photos, but they haven't arrived, so I sent them to another address via email, but I haven't received a response. Please look into this.

波も穏やかでとても快適でした
でも　体調の悪い人や　船に弱い人は
酔い止めのお薬を用意したほうが良いとおもいます。

I experienced snorkeling for the first time this time. Although I didn't encounter any sea turtles, I saw many fish, and it was a great experience.

今回初めてシュノーケリングを体験しました。
海ガメには逢えませんでしたが、沢山の魚を見れてとてもいい経験になりました。

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!

2日前に予約しましが、返信もスムーズですぐに予約がとれました！
日本語ガイドのカナさんにとても親切にしていただき、写真もたくさん撮っていただきました。水中カメラを持参される事をオススメします！
モロキニ島に行く途中、イルカが船に並走してくれて初めて間近で見れた時は凄く感動しました！海ガメもガイドさんが見つけると大きな声で呼んでくれてすぐに見る事ができました。海ガメが目の前で息継ぎを見せてくれて大感動でした！今度はクジラを見に行きたいと思います！
