I participated in this tour to enjoy the sea on the rocky shores of Hawaii Island. There are two main highlights of this tour:
1. Snorkeling
I wasn't very good at swimming, but I was grateful that they provided life jackets. The first snorkeling spot was about 3 meters deep, so I couldn't touch the bottom, and at the other location, I couldn't stand on the coral reef either, so I was swimming the whole time. There weren't a huge number of fish, but I was happy to see a turtle.
2. The speed of the boat
It was astonishing. Of course, I took off my hat and held onto the railing the entire time. It was thrilling and a lot of fun. I think it was even more impactful than snorkeling.
The locals also said that Sea Quest is great, and the morning plan, which has less intense waves, wraps up before noon, so I was able to make the most of my day. However, the guide only spoke English, so all the instructions were in English as well. I also recommend applying sunscreen thoroughly, especially on your back.
岩場の多いハワイ島で海を楽しむため参加しました。このツアーの楽しみは2点です。
1.シュノーケル
泳ぐのが苦手でしたが、ライフジャケットを用意しておいてくれたので助かりました。一つ目のシュノーケルポイントは水深3メートルぐらいで足はつきませんし、もう一つの場所でもサンゴ礁の上には立つことはできないので泳ぎぱなしです。
魚は大量というわけではありませんでしたが、カメに会うことができたのでよかったです。
2.ボートの速さ
驚愕でした。帽子などはもちろん外し、ずっと手すりにつかまっていました。スリルがあって楽しかったです。シュノーケル以上にインパクトがあったように思います。
現地の人もSea Questはいいよと言っていましたし、波の激しくない朝のプランはお昼前には解散なので一日充実できました。ただし、ガイドさんは本当に英語のみだったので注意事項などももちろん英語です。あと日焼け止めをとくに背中に入念に塗ることをおすすめします。

It was an experience unlike any other we have done. The guides knew where the turtles were and were very happy to answer any questions! We saw so many turtles! I wish there had been a little intro to snorkeling for those who haven’t done this before. Good memories were made.

The staff spoke only English, but we had the boat to ourselves with just the two of us. On the way to the snorkeling spot, they stopped at sightseeing spots visible from the boat. Unfortunately, we only saw the dorsal fins of the dolphins. It was a watching tour, not a swimming with dolphins tour, so that's understandable.
Please make sure to print out your reservation and bring it with you; confirmation screens on smartphones are not accepted. Also, since you will be sitting on the edge of the boat and traveling for about an hour, it's a good idea to take motion sickness medication beforehand.
The water temperature is low, and it gets quite chilly after snorkeling, so please bring a jacket and a bath towel. We snorkeled at two locations and had light snacks twice, which was great!
スタッフさんは英語のみでしたが、参加は私たちも二人で貸し切り
シュノーケリングスポットに着くまでにも、ボートから見える観光スポットに寄ってくださいました>^_^< イルカは残念ながら背ひれしか見えませんでした イルカと泳ぐツアーではなく、ウォッチングなのでしょうがないですね
こちらのご予約は必ずブリントアウトして持っていってください スマホなどの確認画面はNGです
あとはボートのヘリに座るし、1時間くらい移動するので酔い止めの薬を飲んでおくといいです
水温も低くシュノーケリング後はかなり冷えるので上着とバスタオルを持っていってください
シュノーケリングは2ヶ所で2本、軽食も二回出出来ました よかったです!

My husband and I were both nervous, I get seasick and he has a fear of deeper water and has never snorkeled. Captain Morgan was amazing and the crew was super reassuring. They gave me ginger candy when I got on. I only felt a little queasy, it wasn't as bad as I thought. Short ride and they got us in the water and we had a full display of barrel rolls by 2 mantas! My husband had an amazing time and he enjoyed it more than he thought he would. He would do it again! You stay in the water for a reasonable amount of time, I got out a tad early but we went back shortly after. Tea, soda and fresh pineapple was offered. A MUST do and I couldn't ask for a better crew. Bring your own goggles and snorkel if you have them, some masks leaked a little. Worth it even if you get seasick (lots of ginger and dramamine!)
Pick a day with no wind as Well! We had a great experience.
Thank you for taking the time to review your manta tour. Happy to hear both you and your husband enjoyed the experience. Thank you for joining us and hope to serve you again soon in the near future.

I wanted to see manta rays up close just once, so I joined a tour. Since they are wild, I thought it would be a matter of luck, but I was amazed to see at least six of them! It took a bit of courage to jump into the night sea, but I received proper support and didn't feel scared at all! I truly believe that the Big Island of Hawaii is the best! Thank you so much!

I had a very luxurious time! You can dive individually, but I think it's much more enjoyable and reassuring to join a tour with a guide like Chieko. I got to see colorful fish and even met two turtles. It's great to receive photos later since it's not easy to take pictures while you're in the water.
とても贅沢な時間を過ごせました!
個人でも潜ることが出来ますが、ツアーに参加してチエコさんのガイドがあった方が安心で、何倍も楽しめると思います。色とりどりのお魚たちと、カメにも2匹会えました。海に入っている時の写真は普段なかなか撮れないので、後から写真を頂けるのも嬉しいです。
Thank you for participating in the tour. On this day, there was a last-minute cancellation from another customer who was supposed to join, so it turned into a private snorkeling experience for you. The sea conditions were good, the water was clear, and most importantly, you had the turtles all to yourself, making you a truly lucky customer. That’s wonderful!! Please do join us again for a tour when you come back to Hawaii. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!

Swimming with dolphins has been a dream of mine on Hawaii Island for years, and this was my first trip to Hawaii Island!! However, just before departure, there were reports of orca sightings, which gave me a strange feeling... Still, once we set sail, it felt wonderful and fun to cut through the wind and move across the sea.
As the boat progressed, both the captain and the guide gathered a lot of information and did everything possible to create a miracle. Although I didn't get to see any dolphins, they took us to a beautiful spot where we could go snorkeling.
Then came the much-anticipated second day. Since we were dealing with nature, I wasn't sure if we would see dolphins again, but I really wanted to go. And then, finally, the dolphins appeared!! I was so happy and excited that I swam with the dolphins, following the captain and guide's instructions, finding the best positions and timing over and over again.
This incredible experience was thanks to the dolphins and, above all, the two captains and the guide who worked hard to entertain us for two full days. I want to come back to Hawaii Island and join the same tour again. Thank you so much!!
イルカと泳ぐのはハワイ島♡と何年も前から決めており、今回初ハワイ島旅行!!
しかし、出港前にシャチの目撃情報があり怪しい予感…。それでも出港したら風を切りながら海を進むのが心地よくて楽しくて。
船を進める中、キャプテンもガイドさんもたくさんの情報収集をして奇跡を起こすための最善のことを全てしてくれました。
イルカには会えなかったけど、素敵な場所へ連れて行ってくれてシュノーケリングをできました。
そしてリベンジの2日目。
自然相手なので2日目も会えるかは分からないけど、とにかく行きたかった。
そしてそして念願のイルカの登場!!とにかく嬉しくて幸せでキャプテンとガイドさんの指示で夢中でイルカと泳ぎました。何度も何度もベストなポジションとタイミングで泳ぎました。
こんな幸せな経験をできたのはイルカたちとそして、何より2日間全力で私たちを楽しませてくれたキャプテン2名とガイドさんのおかげです。
またハワイ島へ来てまた同じツアー参加したいです。本当にありがとうございました!!

Since it was a jet boat, I had no worries about seasickness at all. There is no toilet on the boat. At first, there were hardly any, but gradually a lot of mantas came. It's impressive to see them spinning right in front of you. I'm just floating, but my arms get quite tired. Renting a wetsuit cost an additional $10.
ジェットボートなので心配していた船酔いは全くありませんでした。ボートにトイレはありません。
最初は全然いなかったのですがだんだんマンタが沢山来ました。目の前でマンタが回転するのは迫力あります。
プカプカ浮いてるだけですが腕が結構疲れます。
ウェットスーツは借りるのに別途10ドルかかりました。

This was my second time participating. Unfortunately, there were strong winds and passing rain this time, and I was worried about whether I could enjoy it, but I was able to have fun just like last time. The kind and enjoyable explanations in Japanese also made for a great time. The promised turtles had increased to two, which was delightful. The only disappointment was that there wasn't a low tide sufficient to expose the sandy area again, so I want to thoroughly research the low tide periods and plan my trip for next time.
2回目の参加でした。今回はあいにく強風と通り雨で、楽しめるのか心配しましたが、前回と変わらず楽しむことができました。親切で楽しい日本語での説明も楽しい時間でした。お約束の亀も二匹になっていて、楽しみました。残念なのは、今回も砂地が表れる程の干潮でなく、次回は干潮時期をしっかり調べて旅行を計画したい。

Crew was very nice and captain had a great story, but we were ones that had little luck with manta's. We did see one or two, but it took a full hour in water, where some of my party began to get sick and missed it. The most disappointing part was absolutely no cruise. Do not expect a cruise. We coasted for 5 min and went out where I could snorkel on my own. I really thought we would sail for a bit and get snacks instead of one piece of pineapple. Understand you are hanging onto a ladder the whole time. I get it for safety reasons, but not what I expected. There is no real snorkeling where your swimming around. No boat lights other then ladder. I felt we were using other boats lights, where we were the last ones to ever see anything, unless we got lucky. Our ladder had lights. I thought this was also a 3 to 4 hour tour. It took 5 or 10 min. To get where we were going, then hour in water, then go home. No drinks on this, and hit and miss with hot chocolate. I highly recommended actually sailing first and open the sails like they said would happen and choosing this boat in the first place. My party was disappointed. My kids were troopers and stayed out with me and saw the one manta, before turning back where the rest of the people holding onto the ladder didn't see it. At least give us a cruise first with this cool boat.
Thank you for taking the time to review your manta tour. We are happy to hear you enjoyed the staff and also sorry to hear you did not fully enjoy the trip. We, unfortunately, do not always get the opportunity to sail prior to the manta tour. As stated on the website, factors such as mooring availability water conditions and weather play a great part in what happens on each individual tour. If I could have it my way, every night we would have just enough wind cruise out to sea while watching a glorious sunset (No rain). Return back to the manta site to find our mooring available, at this point the wind would calm and the sea would be flat and upon entering the water all of Kona's manta rays would gather under our raft for the entire hour. Everyone would be happy, but alas this does not happen as often as I wish it would.

I participated with my father, who is over 60 years old. We were extremely excited and satisfied to see manta rays gracefully spinning right in front of us! The boat sped quickly to the manta observation point, and while we waited for the manta rays, the gentle rocking of the waves made some people feel a bit queasy, but it was a safe activity. It was a tour with a Japanese guide, and nearly half of the participants were Japanese.
It's definitely not cheap, but I can recommend this tour to family and friends of all ages!

I participated with my elderly parents. I chose this tour from many available ocean tours because I wanted to show my parents, who had never interacted with wild dolphins, and I also wanted to swim with them.
It was also important whether the boat had a toilet. However, I thought it would be nice to have one, but it wasn't a deal-breaker.
First of all, I felt that you need to be physically fit. Using fins for the first time took a lot of energy. I had to work hard to swim and catch even a small chance to see the dolphins. The dolphins swam away quickly before I could even get used to snorkeling, and I was surprised at how fast the first encounter happened!
It reminded me of my time in sports club activities. It was such a feeling that when we finally saw the dolphins together, I was truly moved.
I thought I would invite my parents to experience the underwater world, but I felt a bit guilty thinking that if I struggled, they would too. However, it seemed they enjoyed themselves on the boat. They were excitedly saying things like, "There were dolphins with their babies!" and "I think I saw flying fish!" It made me happy to see my parents acting like children.
For snorkeling, I recommend the waters on the opposite side of Oahu Island rather than this side, so I wouldn't recommend this tour for that. However, if you have a strong desire to swim with dolphins, I hope you will build up your stamina and participate!
This tour was filled with the warm feelings of the staff who wanted everyone to see the dolphins. Thank you for having a dedicated photographer who captured wonderful memories of the trip. The price might be high, but I want to say thank you for creating lasting memories for me, as I felt this might be the last trip with my parents.
Thank you for taking such beautiful photos! My father and mother's best smiles were captured there!
年老いた両親とともに参加しました。野生のイルカに触れ合ったことのない両親に見せてあげたいという気持ちと、私が一緒に泳いでみたいという理由から数多くある海のツアーから選びました。
また船にトイレを備え付けているかも重要な点でした。しかし、これはあればなおよしぐらいな気持ちでよいかなと思います。
まず、体力ないと無理だと感じました。フィンを使うのが初めてだとまずそれに体力使いました。またほんの少しのチャンスに食らいつくために懸命に顔をつけて泳ぎます。スノーケルをつけて泳ぐのもならないままあっというイルカは泳ぎ去ってしまい最初のアタックはあっという間でびっくりしました笑
運動部の部活を思い出しました。そんな感じでしたのでみんなでイルカを見れたときにはほんとうに感動しました。
自分が体験して両親もできたら海の中は誘おうと思ってましたが、自分もこんな感じなのに無理だなと思い申し訳無い気持ちも起こりましたが、船の上ではそれはそれで楽しめていたようです。イルカが親子でいたよ!トビウオもいたみたいよ!などと子供のようにはしゃぐ親の姿が嬉しかったです。
シュノーケルするにはこちら側の海ではなくオワフ島の反対側の海がオススメなのでこのツアーはオススメしませんが、イルカと一緒に泳ぐぞ!って気持ちが強い方は是非体力つけて参加してほしいなと思います^^
皆んなにイルカを見せてあげたいって思うスタッフさんの暖かい気持ちが詰まったツアーでした。専属にカメラマンさんがいて旅の良い思い出も残してくれてありがとうございます。値段は高いかもしれませんが、もう両親とはこられない最後の旅となる気持ちの高かった私には残るものを作ってくれてありがとうと言いたいです。

This was my first time in Hawaii, and it was also my first experience using Veltra, but everything went smoothly, including the transfers! I think we saw about ten sea turtles. Additionally, we were lucky enough to spot a monk seal! It was a bit far away, so we could only see its head, but the staff was quite excited about it, too.
It rained a little, which allowed us to see a beautiful big rainbow, and I was very satisfied! I had researched the tide beforehand, but it was deeper than I expected, so we didn't walk on the sand.
It had been a while since I went snorkeling, and the waves were rough due to the strong winds over the past few days, but the staff guided us, and we were able to enjoy it safely. I would love to participate again if I have the chance!
今回初ハワイで、ベルトラも初めての利用でしたが、送迎等も問題なく楽しめました!
ウミガメウォッチングは10匹くらい見れたかもしれません。また、運良くモンクシールも顔を出してくれました!遠目だったので頭しか見えなかったですが、スタッフの方もかなり興奮されてました笑

I was excited to go to Hawaii for the first time and was determined not to miss snorkeling with dolphins, so I signed up for Dolphin School. On the day of the trip, after arriving at Waianae Harbor, we threw plumeria flowers into the sea during a safety prayer ceremony while wearing the wetsuits we rented that day, all while looking out at the beautiful ocean and searching for dolphins. Unfortunately, we didn't see any dolphins that day, but while snorkeling, I was able to see schools of sardines, rays, and sea turtles up close. I was moved by the extraordinary experience of having a sea turtle swimming right next to me. I think that alone made this tour worthwhile! The staff were all lively and fun, and their efforts to entertain the participants were very evident. Thank you!
初めてハワイに行くことになり、絶対にイルカとのシュノーケリングははずせないと意気込んでイルカ中学に申し込みました。当日は、ワイアナエハーバーに到着後、船で沖に出る間に、安全祈願の儀式でプルメリアの花を海へ投げたり、ウェットスーツ(当日レンタルしたもの)を着用し美しい海を眺めながら、イルカを探していました。結局その日はイルカに会えなかったのですが、シュノーケリングをした時にイワシの群れやエイ、ウミガメを間近で見ることができました。ウミガメが自分のすぐ側を泳いでるという非日常に感動しました。それだけでもこのツアーに参加した価値はあったと思います!スタッフの方もみなさん元気でひょうきんな方が多く、参加者を楽しませようとしている気持ちがとても伝わってきました。ありがとうございました!
Aloha!! Unimo,
Thank you for participating in the tour of the prestigious Dolphin Middle School. We were disappointed that you couldn't meet Mr. Dolphin this time, but when you join us again, you will be able to use the discount from our "Retry System," so please contact us when you do. We also have manta tours available on the Big Island that are not offered on Oahu, and we look forward to your next participation.

I participated with the image of being able to walk on the sandbar, but in reality, the sandbar was not visible, and I was submerged in seawater up to my waist. I wish there had been a bit more time to stay and for snorkeling.
サンドバーの上を歩けるイメージで参加しましたが、実際はサンドバーは顔を出さず、腰近くまで海水に浸かっていました。もう少し滞在時間やシュノーケルの時間があったらいいなと思いました。

I visited Maui for the first time in 25 years and went snorkeling at Molokini Island. The number of fish at Molokini has decreased quite a bit compared to before, but the water clarity seemed to remain about the same. This time, I also went to another location where there were sea turtles and many fish. I had a great time, and the Japanese guide was very kind.
25年ぶりにマウイに行きモロキニ島シュノーケリングを行いました、モロキニ島は以前より魚の数はだいぶ減少しましたが、透明度はあまり変わっていないようでした、今回は別の場所にも行きましたが、こちらは海ガメもいましたし魚も多かったです、楽しみました、日本人ガイドさんも大変親切でした。

Although it was disappointing that the sandbar didn't appear due to the rainy weather and it not being low tide, the staff were very kind, and I had a great time.
天候が雨模様でしかも引き潮の時期ではなかったそうで、サンドバーが現れなかったのは残念でしたが、スタッフの皆さんが大変親切で、楽しい時間を過ごせました。

The guide, Yuki, was very enjoyable and left a good impression. However, the seawater came up to my chest, which was a bit different from what I expected (but that's nature, so it can't be helped). I think snorkeling is a waste of time, so it's not necessary. I read in a review that "the bus is cold," so I brought extra towels, but it was still cold. Doesn't the company see reviews like this? Please consider the temperature of the bus for future guests!!
ガイドのユキさんは とても楽しく良い印象でした。が、胸のあたりまで
海水が来たので、ちょっと思っていたのと違いました。(自然のことなので仕方ない)
シュノーケリングは時間がもったいないので
しなくていいと思います。この口コミで、「バスが寒い」と書いてあったので
タオルを多めに持っていきましたが、それでも寒かったです。会社の方は、この
ような口コミを見ないのでしょうか?今後の方のためにバスの温度を考えてください!!

I was extremely excited to see the manta rays coming up from the seabed to the surface. I had been told not to touch the manta rays, but they came so close that I found myself twisting my body to avoid touching them. The boat was rocking quite a bit, so I was glad I took motion sickness medication. The sunset on the way to the spot was incredibly beautiful. Also, the night sky was stunning on the return trip. I think it could be called a Manta & Sunset & Night View Tour!
マンタが海底から水面に上ってきて補色をする姿に大興奮でした。マンタに触れてはいけないと説明されていたけれどあまりにも至近距離まで近づいてきてくれていたので体をくねらせてマンタに触れない体勢でいたほどです。かなり船が揺れるので酔い止めを飲んでいて良かったと思いました。ポイントまで行く間にサンセットがもの凄く綺麗でした。また帰りの船中では夜空が美しかったです。マンタ&サンセット&夜景ツアーという名でもよいのでは笑
Aloha!! Hiro-chan

Thank you for reviewing your tour with us. The lights we use are quite powerful, we do place a special blue filter over them to attract more of the microscopic plankton which the mantas' appear to prefer over the larger zooplankton, that may be why they appeared to be dim by comparison.
