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

Sunset Cruise and Manta Ray Night Snorkel

Reviewed by: Evar

My most favorite experience on Big Island with Sea Paradise! A great crew and we were taken care of from start to finish. You start by checking in at the shopping center, drive 5 minutes to Keauhou Bay to park your vehicle, get fitted for your wet suit, and get on the boat. The sunset on along the Kona Coast was beautiful. The crew were extremely helpful, very knowledgeable about the history of the manta rays, humorous and went out of their way to make sure we spent the most time with the manta rays. We were one of the first boats in and last to leave. Plus, we were given fresh pineapple, juices/sodas and hot chocolate.
I do not know how to swim but the guides took extra care to make sure I made it on and off the boat with flotation devices. I would definitely recommend Sea Paradise!

Although we were a bit anxious as it was our first experience with snorkeling, we were able to encounter the wonderful underwater world of Hanauma Bay thanks to the appropriate and courteous guidance of our Japanese instructor.

Deluxe Na Pali Experience Snorkel Tour, Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters

Tour good, but long for us

Reviewed by: Kathy

The tour, boat, crew, food, and scenery were great. For us, water was too cold to snorkel and 5 hours was too long. Probably would have done better on a 2-3 hour cruise. We did see porpoise, turtles, a monk seal and whale spouts, so the company delivered- it was more our issues that made it too long for us. Also, it is a 1 hr, 45 min drive from princeville to marina, so should have signed up for afternoon tour, not morning.

ウミガメシュノーケリング ホロカイ・カタマラン号 高確率でウミガメに会えるタートルキャニオンへ!ソフトドリンク&スナック付き<3時間/英語/ワイキキホテル発>

Sea turtle ウミガメ

Reviewed by: のりこ

We were the only Japanese people on the tour. I couldn't understand Japanese, and I didn't know what the captain was saying, but it was okay, haha.

The tour description mentioned that they would lend us fins, but they only provided snorkeling gear and life jackets. I think the tour details need to be updated. Everyone else around us brought their own fins! It was fine without them, though.

Before boarding, they took photos (which they later sold for $20).

Once we set out, we encountered a pod of dolphins!

There was only one snorkeling spot. We got to swim with five big turtles! If you have a GoPro, the staff will dive down to take pictures of the turtles for you.

We enjoyed drinks (for a fee) while listening to music and having fun. They said that if you jumped into the sea, beer was free! But it was too cold for me to do that.

We went further out to look for whales, but we couldn't find any and had to head back.

Although I couldn't understand Japanese, the staff lady was cheerful and friendly.

I usually don't get motion sickness, but I felt seasick this time. It was cold in January, so be prepared!

日本人は私達だけでした。日本語も通じませんし、船長は何言ってるかわかりませんでしたが大丈夫です笑
ツアー内容にフィンも貸してくれるとありましたが、シュノーケルと救命胴衣だけでした。ツアー内容に変更が必要かと思います。周りの外国人達はみんな持ってきてました!なしでも大丈夫です。
乗船前に写真撮影(最後に20ドルで販売していました)

沖に出たらイルカの群れに遭遇!

潜るポイントはワンスポットのみです。大きなカメ5匹と一緒に泳げました!ゴープロもってる人はスタッフが下まで潜ってカメを撮ってくれます。

音楽を聴きながらお酒(有料)を飲んで、わいわい
(海に飛び込んだらビール無料!って言っていましたが寒くて無理でした)

クジラを探しにさらに沖へ

見つからず帰る

日本語は通じませんが、スタッフのお姉さんは明るくて気さくに話しかけてくれました。

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>

If you're unlucky, it can turn into the worst tour. 運が悪いと最悪のツアーに

Reviewed by: hedgehog

I held onto the blue glowing board, but there were too many people clinging to one board, making it cramped. The manta ray that appeared was just one, far away. The boat and the water were both very choppy, causing many people to feel seasick. On the way back, it was extremely cold, and some were vomiting, creating a hellish scene. It felt like a waste of over 30,000 yen for two people, making it the worst tour I've participated in so far (though I understand it's nature, so it's unavoidable).

If you don't see anything, you can participate for free the next day, but I had booked a different tour for the following day and couldn't join (I suspect most people will be in the same situation). I'm also doubtful if the right to participate for free again is valid for a few years later; if not, this is truly a terrible tour. For those who participate, please make sure to take motion sickness medication and be prepared for the possibility that you might not see anything.

青く光るボードにつかまって見るのですが、一つのボードにつかまる人数が多すぎて窮屈でした。そして現れたマンタは遠くの方に1匹だけ。ボート上も海の中も揺れが激しく、酔う人多数。帰りはとても寒く、吐く人もいて、地獄絵図でした。2人で3万円以上払ってこれかよという感じで、これまで参加したツアーで最悪のものとなりました(自然相手なので仕方ありませんが)。

見れなかった場合、翌日も無料で参加できるということですが、翌日は別のツアーを申し込んでおり参加できませんでした(ほとんどの方がそうなるのでは)。無料で再度参加の権利は数年後でも有効なのか疑問ですが、そうでないとしたら本当にひどいツアーです。参加する方は、必ず酔い止めを飲んで、見れない可能性があると覚悟して参加してください。

I had a lot of fun on a boat like the one in the movie Moana, which was also fast. This time, I participated with my family, but there were no other Japanese people besides us. The guide only spoke English. It was a very satisfying tour.

Fantastic day!!!

Reviewed by: Lisa Macklem

This was just a terrific day from start to finish. We were picked up on time, and everything was exactly as advertised. We saw turtles, swam with the dolphins, and saw approximately 8 whales too! It was the first time snorkeling for both my husband and myself and the staff was terrific. Emmanuel picked us up and took care of us for the whole day. Our captain was terrific, making sure that we saw all those whales and had plenty of time for snorkeling with the dolphins and then over a wonderful coral reef. Photographer Justin was also terrific - making sure to get great pictures of everyone who wanted them. HIghly recommend this tour and company! Friendly AND professional!

As shown in the photo, there was no emergence of the sandy beach from the sea, and the water reached up to my knees. Also, it was cloudy and windy that day, and I couldn't help but wonder why it was so cold in Hawaii. While snorkeling may be the main focus, I would like to see tours that are centered around the sandy beach as well.

写真にあるように海から砂浜が浮き出てくるようなことはなく、膝上程度まで海水に浸かりました。又当日は曇りで風もありハワイなのにこんなに寒いのはなぜ、といいような感じでした。シュノーケルがメインなのかもしれませんが、砂浜メインのツアーも企画して欲しいと思います。

Absolutely sensational experience

Reviewed by: Trish Foxall

Wow, wow, wow. This was the experience of a lifetime for me and my family. We really hit the jackpot. Within minutes of leaving the harbor we came across some Humpback whales frolicking with some dolphins - this was breathtaking. We then swam with sea turtles and had an amazing experience with a pod of approximately 50 dolphins. I honestly believe we had luck on our side because we couldn't have asked for a more amazing experience. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable and made the tour even more enjoyable. I can honestly say this was the highlight of our holiday and would recommend this company to everyone.

Unfortunately, the sandbar was submerged up to waist height, so we couldn't experience it, but the weather was nice and we had a great time. Interacting with the staff during the BBQ was enjoyable and the food was delicious. Many sea turtles popped their heads up, which excited everyone. It was a truly fun tour where we could enjoy swimming in a fantastic location. Although I'm not a strong swimmer, I was trying my best to swim, but it seemed to the staff that I looked like I was drowning (laughs), and they were worried about me. If I could wish for one thing, it would have been nice to have a bit more fresh water poured on us when we returned from the sea.

Attentive Great Staff!

Reviewed by: Jennie G

The crew made sure everyone's needs/wants were tended to. I felt nauseated when snorkeling and swam back to shore and someone was in the ocean to help, then someone on shore removed my goggles and such, another staff member gave me ideas to "recover", and on the trip back, a different staff member found the best place for me to sit and sip some ginger ale. They engaged our young adult children and were fun loving - entertaining - and educational (about the sharks that were sighted) - plenty of food and drink.

Very friendly staff. Check in place is walking distance from my hotel. Since I do get sea sick, I took motion sickness pill an hour before and I didn't eat until it's time to go back to Waikiki beach. Therefore, providing snacks only without meals is perfect for me. They have a guide to swim with us and find turtles and other sea life for us. Our guide even dived to retrieve GoPro for a girl in our group. After snorkeling, they rises their sail and took us to see whales. My 2 teenage boys really enjoyed the activity the whole time.

I want to go again to Angel's Beach Sandbar. また行きたい 天使の海 サンドバー

Reviewed by: たーー

There is a shuttle service to the hotel (depending on the hotel), and since we were able to return to the hotel by noon, we could plan different activities for the afternoon, making it an efficient and enjoyable experience. We were able to see many sea turtles, and the ocean was very beautiful, so I would like to go again. The only downside was that after getting out of the water, my body was still cold despite drying off with a towel, and the air conditioning on the return bus was too strong, making it very cold (though this may vary by person). I think it's better to prepare warm clothing that can get wet.

宿泊先のホテルまで送迎あり(ホテルによる)、昼にはまたホテルに戻って来れたので、午後はまた違う予定を組めたので、効率よく楽しめた。
ウミガメもたくさん見ることができて、海もとても綺麗で、また行きたいと思います。
唯一、海に入った後体はタオルで拭くくらいで冷えているのに、帰りのバスが冷房効き過ぎていてとても寒かったので(個人差あると思いますが)、防寒具や濡れても良い温かい服は自分で準備をしておいた方が良いと思います。

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧 水~土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能<フライト100分/英語パイロット/ワイコロアヘリポート>

It was just... disappointing. ただ‥‥‥残念でした

Reviewed by: Kiyu

I was disappointed that there wasn't a Japanese pilot. Also, the two people sitting in front of me were wearing beige and red tops with shorts, which caused those colors to reflect on the glass. It was the worst because I couldn't take a photo with my smartphone without those colors showing up. For those participating, it's best to wear longer pants, at least knee-length, in black, and also a black top.

日本語パイロットでなかったのが残念でした。
あと、前に座った2人が、ベージュ、赤色のトップスにショートパンツの洋服を着ていたせいで、ガラスにその色が反射して、スマホで写真撮ろうとしても映り込んで、最悪でした。
参加される方は長めの、せめて膝下丈のパンツで色は黒色、そしてトップスも黒色を必ず着ていくほうがベストですよ。

Thank you very much for participating in the tour. However, we are very sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with the experience.

Regarding the request for a Japanese-speaking pilot, as mentioned on the tour page, we cannot guarantee this, but we understand that you were hoping for explanations in Japanese since you took the time to join us. We also regret that the reflections of other customers' clothing on the window made it difficult to see the scenery. We will share your feedback with the operating company and consider improvements together.

If you have the opportunity to visit the Big Island again, we sincerely hope that your next tour will be one that meets your expectations.

Thank you for your valuable feedback during your busy schedule. We look forward to serving you again.

この度はツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございます。
しかしながら、ツアーにご満足いただくことができなかったとのこと、弊社としても大変残念に思っております。

日本語パイロットのリクエストに関しましては、ツアーページでもご案内申し上げておりますように確約ではございませんが、
せっかくご参加いただくのであれば、日本語での説明を期待されていたことと存じます。
また、他のお客様のお召し物が窓ガラスに映り込み、景色が見えづらかったという点についても残念でなりません。
いただきましたご意見は催行会社に共有をさせていただき、ともに改善を検討してまいります。

次回またハワイ島にお越しになることがありましたら、その際にはご満足いただけるツアーとなりますこと、心より願っております。

お忙しい中、貴重なご投稿を賜りまして、誠にありがとうございました。
またのご利用をお待ちしております。

Discover Lanai Day Trip from Maui, Hulopoe Bay Snorkeling & Sweetheart Rock

Really fun experience. Great for families.

Reviewed by: John Gilchrist

Had a really good time on the trip. The customer service was top notch; every employee was ready to jump to serve the customer. It was a very smooth ride to Lanai accompanied with juice, coffee, cinnamon buns, and breakfast sandwiches. You end on a pretty secluded beach, and while snorkeling the crew was great about being available if you needed help, but otherwise leaving you alone to see the sights. Lunch was grilled chicken and Asian noodles. On the ride back they serve ice cream and then open the bar. We saw whales on both the outgoing trip and the return, and the captain would stop to view them. The only part I thought that was less than stellar was the food quality. While certainly not bad, it just wasn't anything great. Also, the description makes it seem like they serve booze the whole time, but they don't open the bar until about the last hour of the trip. All in all a very fun experience and a great trip for families.

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

Loved it!

Reviewed by: Neera Iyer

This was a last minute booking so we were glad to get it. We did the 7:45-9:45 PM night tour. The set up is pretty standard. The crew was experienced and knew what to do when didn’t find rays at the first spot. We were towed gently to where we saw two! We had a couple of screamers which was a bit annoying but that apart, terrific trip

Time spent swimming with sea turtles. 海亀と泳いだ時間

Reviewed by: せいやんこ

Swimming with two sea turtles was amazing!
There were so many beautiful fish, and the scenery was fantastic.
I think it’s better to take motion sickness medication just in case you might get seasick.
Wearing a wetsuit provides buoyancy and keeps you warm, so I recommend borrowing one.
The tour guides were very kind, making it the best tour ever.
At first, when I was swimming away from my son, they helped bring me back to him, so thank you for that.
Holding hands with my son while swimming with the sea turtles became a lifelong memory. Also, when I got seasick, it was really reassuring to swim back to shore together.
Thank you very much.
It was the best tour. You should definitely try it!

海亀と2ひきもあえて最高だった(^^)(^^)
海亀と2回もあえて、最高でした。
綺麗な魚がいっぱいいてとても良い景色でした
波酔いをするかもしれないので酔い止めを飲んで言ったほうがいいと思います。
ウエットスーツを着てると浮力もあるしあたたかいので借りた方がいいと思います。
ツアーの人もとても優しくて最高のツアーでした。
最初、息子と離れて泳いでいたら、息子のところまで、連れて行ってくれてありがとうございました。
息子と手を繋いで海亀と泳いだことは一生の思い出になりました。また、波酔いをしてしまったら、岸まで一緒に泳いで頂き本当に心強かったです。
ありがとうございました。
最高のツアーです。是非行ってみて下さい。

Dear Seiyanko, thank you for joining our tour with your family. The sea conditions were great that day, and we all had a wonderful time swimming out into the ocean. It was so much fun swimming with the turtles and encountering schools of giant trevally! We would be thrilled if you all could join us again. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!

せいやんこ様、この度はご家族で私達のツアーにご参加いただき、ありがとうございます。この日はとても海の状態も良く、みんなで沖の方までいっぱい泳いだ日でしたね。澄んだ青い水の中で亀と一緒に泳いだり、ギンガメアジの群れにも遭遇出来たり、楽しかったですね!!是非またみなさんでリピートしていただければ嬉しいです。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
