I was able to see a lot of turtles, and I could get a second helping of hamburgers, so that was great. However, this time there were a lot of people, and the bus was really crowded.
でも、カメも沢山見れて、ハンバーガーもお代わりできたので良かったです。ただ、今回は大人数で、バスが凄く混んでました。

I've lived here for a few years and have really wanted to experience the sand bar. Overall the crew and boat were excellent.! It was crowded and frustrating with tourists not understanding English and basic instructions like "Do Not Stand Or Touch the Reef." Sad~ and makes me wish it was a more eco friendly tour.

Last year, I couldn't go because the reservations were full, so I came back for a revenge trip. The ocean was, of course, beautiful, just as I imagined, with lovely shallow waters. However, what really made it special was the great staff, and I was thrilled to see sea turtles while snorkeling and during other activities. Also, during break time, they lent out floats and boards, and you can even try stand-up paddleboarding (there were only a few available and they were popular, so I couldn't do it...).
昨年は予約がいっぱいで行けなかったので、リベンジに。海はもちろんきれいでしたが、想像通りきれいな浅瀬といった感じ。ただ、スタッフさんがよかったのと、シュノーケリングでもそれ以外でもウミガメを見ることが出来たのはテンションがあがりました。あと、休憩時間に浮輪やボードを貸してくれて、SUPなどもチャレンジできます(数は少なく人気なので私はできませんでしたが…)。

We participated as a couple. Since check-in was at the beach in front of the hotel, there wasn't a check-in counter; instead, there was a staff member under a parasol, which mixed in with other beachgoers and was a bit confusing (laughs). I thought this was quite typical of being overseas. We moved to a boat in front of the Halekulani Hotel to board.
Everyone else was from English-speaking countries. The crew spoke only in English, and since I had some snorkeling experience, I managed to keep up. The snorkeling lasted quite a while, about an hour. There was an explanation in English on how to put on the gear, and we were given life jackets and goggles (no fins, but that was fine). Equipped with the snorkeling set, we headed into the sea!! When I swam along with the crew, there were sea turtles!!! I was thrilled to encounter four of them! The seawater was a bit murky, so it was hard to see the fish, but I still had a great time. After that, we returned to the boat for sailing. It was an exhilarating moment with the large sail unfurled, creating a sense of speed. You can buy water and beer on the boat, so no need to worry about drinks! (Cash is better.) There was also a restroom on board. Since sailing can be quite bumpy for a long time, those prone to seasickness should take motion sickness medication. It was a great activity to enjoy the waters of Waikiki in a short amount of time!!
夫婦で参加しました。
ホテルの前のビーチでチェックインという事だったので、チェックインカウンター的なものはなく、パラソルの下に担当のお姉さんが居て他の海水浴客のパラソルと混ざり困惑(笑)これも海外っぽいなぁなんて思いました。
ハレクラニホテルの前にある船に移動して乗船。
私達以外は全員英語圏の方だった。
船員も終始英語で、スノーケル経験者だったのでなんとかついていけたって感じ。
スノーケルは長めで、1時間くらい。英語での装着の説明もあり、ライフジャケットと水中メガネを渡されます。(フィンは無し。無くても大丈夫でした。)
スノーケルセットを装備していざ、海へ!!
船員の人に泳いでついて行くと…そこには海ガメが!!!その後も4匹も出会えて感動でした!少し海水が濁っていたので魚は見えにくかったですが、楽しめました。その後、船に戻ってセイリング。大きな帆を広げてスピード感とスリリングなひと時でした。お水やビールなども船上で買えるので飲み物の心配なし!(現金の方が良い)トイレも船内にありました。セイリングは割と長い時間揺れるので船酔いする人は酔い止めが必要です。
ワイキキの海を短時間で楽しめる良いアクテビティでした!!

As it is called the "Sea of Angels," the ocean was incredibly beautiful. I was engrossed in snorkeling and playing with the fish, and searching for sea turtles, while enjoying a delicious hamburger for lunch! The BBQ cooked by the beautiful captain with a nice body was delicious. Seeing the beautiful sea, feeling the refreshing breeze, and swaying with the waves was so pleasant, fulfilling all my senses.

The purpose of this trip to the Big Island was to see the night manta rays and Kilauea Volcano. First, we participated in the night manta experience. It included transportation, but I received a call the day before saying, "It has been moved up earlier than scheduled." When I arrived at the designated pickup location at the hotel, a Caucasian man informed me that it had been changed to "three hours later." I thought it was an inauspicious start, but we had a fun departure with the captain, who kept cracking jokes, and a Japanese-American girl (tall and slim like Sumire) who translated into English, though her Japanese was a bit shaky. Since I had studied abroad at a university in the U.S., I found the captain's English easier to understand. As for the manta rays, they gathered in droves to feed on the plankton attracted by the powerful LED lights. It was impressive to see the mantas circling vertically and feeding on the plankton, with about three of them at a time. There were two changes to the reservation, but I believe that if the outcome is good, everything is good. The recommendation for Manta University Night Division came from a diving instructor living in Honolulu, and it was the right choice.
今回のハワイ島行きは、ナイトマンタとキラウエア火山の鑑賞が目的でした。まず、ナイトマンタに参加しました。送迎付きでしたが、前日に電話がかかってきて「予定より早くなった」とのことでした。指定された時間にホテルのピックアップ場に行ったところ、白人男性が「3時間後」になったと再度変更。幸先悪いなと思っていましたが、冗談を次々と飛ばす船長さんと、英語を通訳する、少々日本語が怪しい日系の女の子(すみれさんのように長身でスリム)で楽しく出発しました。僕は米国の大学に留学していたので、船長さんの英語の方が分かりやすかったのですが(?)。肝心のマンタですが、強力なLEDに集まるプランクトンを捕食する為にマンタが次々と集まって来ました。垂直方向にぐるぐる回りプランクトンを捕食するマンタは、一度に3枚位で圧巻でした。予約の変更は2回ありましたが、結果良ければ全て良しと思っています。マンタ大学夜学部はホノルルに住んでいるダイビングのインストラクターのお勧めでしたが、正解でした。
Aloha Yuky,
Thank you for participating in the manta ray tour. We sincerely apologize for the repeated changes in schedule that may have caused you inconvenience.

During our honeymoon trip to Hawaii, we participated in this experience. From the start, the staff, especially Natsumi with her machine-gun talk and Juli with her witty remarks, made the atmosphere lively, and before we knew it, we had arrived at the port while enjoying their stories!
After listening to safety instructions and doing some warm-up exercises, we offered a prayer to the sea and jumped right in! At first, we couldn't meet our dolphin guide, but soon enough, dolphins swam right beneath us, and just when we thought they had gone far away, they returned and swam close to us—it was amazing!
When we changed spots to swim with the turtle professor, the water was so clear that we could see all the way to the seabed. We were able to see the turtle professor swimming towards the rocks and the vibrant colors of the tropical fish, as well as the shapes of the coral reefs on the ocean floor.
Since it was my first time snorkeling, I was a bit anxious at first, but the staff were kind and assisted us, allowing us to swim with the dolphin guide and the turtle professor, making it a truly enjoyable and unforgettable experience. I really think it was a great choice to include snorkeling with Dolphin Junior in our honeymoon itinerary. If I have the opportunity to travel to Hawaii again, I would love to experience snorkeling with Dolphin Junior once more!
新婚旅行でハワイに行った際に参加させていただきました。
出発からスタッフのナツミさんのマシンガントークやジュリさんのツッコミで盛り上げていただき、楽しくお話を聞いているうちにあっという間に港まで到着しました!

最初はなかなかイルカ先生に会えませんでしたが途中から私たちの真下をイルカ先生が泳いだり、遠くに行ったかと思いきや帰ってきて近くを泳いでくれたりと最高でした!
スポットを変えてカメ大教授と泳いだときには海底まで見渡せるくらい海が澄んでおり、海面にいたカメ大教授が岩陰まで泳いでいく姿や熱帯魚の鮮やかな色合い・海底のさんご礁の形などを見ることができました。
シュノーケリング自体がはじめてだったので最初は不安でしたが、スタッフの方が優しくアシストしてくださり、イルカ先生やカメ大教授とも一緒に泳げたので本当に楽しく最高の思い出になりました。

The pickup was on time, and they were very kind, providing recommendations for local shops and more.

The clarity of the water around Molokini Island is amazing, but there aren't many tropical fish. At the second point, the turtle spot, it was fantastic to swim with the turtles for a long time. Those staying at hotels in the Wailea area were close to the turtle spot, so they could encounter them even on private beaches. It was really enjoyable since we could get explanations in Japanese and the drinks were free.

Since I had never snorkeled before, I opted for a guided tour. It was reassuring to have a Japanese instructor. The advantage of the tour is that you get to see many great spots in Hanauma Bay. The downside is that since it's a group tour with about ten people, there were frequent instances of being kicked, bumped into, and having selfie sticks hit me. I understand that everyone is trying their best in the water, but there was no apology even after we got back to the beach... I think the operating company should pay a bit more attention to this. I didn't get injured, but I felt it could lead to trouble. If there were only 4 to 5 participants, I think such issues would be less likely, so I recommend that those interested ask about the number of participants for the day before deciding to join. Alternatively, if it's a large group, it might be best to participate with the understanding that kicking and bumping will happen.
シュノーケルをした事かなかったので、ガイド付きにしました。インストラクターの方が日本人の方がいて安心でした。ツアーなのでハナウマ湾の良い所を沢山見れるのがメリット。デメリットはツアーなので10名位が一緒なので、蹴られる、ぶつかる、セルフィーの棒があたる。はしょっちゅう。海の中で必死なのは分かりますが、ビーチに上がってからも謝罪なし…ここは運営会社さんで、ちょっと注意した方が良いと思います。私は怪我はなかったですが、トラブルの原因になりかねないと思ってました。4~5名の参加であれば、このようなトラブルは少ないと思うので、参加される方は、事前に当日の参加人数を聞いてから参加を決める。もしくは大人数なら蹴られる、ぶつかるを前提の上で参加されると良いと思います。

I previously participated in another snorkeling tour off Waikiki and had a great time, so this time I decided to join this one, which is slightly more expensive but includes a life vest as standard. My husband, who isn't the best swimmer, insisted on having a life vest, so we chose this option, and it turned out to be a good decision. Fortunately, there were plenty of sea turtles this time, which was a delight. The water clarity was decent, and personally, I think you can have a great time snorkeling off Waikiki without needing to go far. For those who have limited time but still want to snorkel, I think this is a great option. Drinks are available for purchase, and snacks are free. As expected, drinks are on the pricier side, so it might be a good idea to bring your own.
以前もう一方のワイキキ沖シュノーケルに参加してヨカッタので今回は若干高いけどライフベストが基本で配られるこちらに参加してみました。泳ぎが今ひとつな主人がライフベストがないとイヤ、というのでそうしたのですが、結果よかったです。ラッキーなことにウミガメが今回たくさんいて堪能。透明度もまずまずだし個人的には遠出しなくても十分ワイキキ沖で楽しめると思います。あまり時間がないけどシュノーケルも、という方にはポイント高いと思います。ドリンクは有料、スナックは無料です。当たり前ですがドリンクは高めなので、持参がよいかと・・・

As expected! The two guides, a Japanese woman and an American man who speaks fluent Japanese, really knew the area well. They coordinated perfectly, communicating by phone to navigate around construction areas on the way from the hotel to Hanauma Bay, which was wonderful.
Of course, at Hanauma Bay, they knew the best spots to see a lot of fish. With nine participants and two guides, one led the way while the other stayed at the back to ensure safety and provide support. While other tour groups couldn't see any turtles, we all got to see them perfectly! (We were lucky that the turtle was resting while eating.) Those of us with cameras were able to take great photos.
Some guests were tired from swimming, so while one group headed straight back to the beach, my husband and I decided to take our time and swim back while looking for fish. Their quick thinking in this situation was impressive! I definitely recommend the early morning tour. The visibility is much better in the morning compared to the afternoon.
I wonder how long we swam... We must have swum from one end of the bay to the other, so having good stamina is definitely a plus, but I recommend renting a wetsuit (I brought my own). It helps prevent sunburn, and more importantly, wearing a wetsuit provides buoyancy, so you will definitely float!
I hope everyone enjoys Hanauma Bay! If you want to see lots of fish and meet turtles, it's best to have a guide.
さすが!地元をよく知るガイドさん2人(日本人の女性とアメリカ人?男性で日本語ペラペラ)なだけあって、連携もよくホテルからハナウマ湾までの道のりで工事で通れないところを電話で連絡しあって迂回したりと、素敵でした。
もちろん、ハナウマ湾でも、魚の多くいるポイント知ってらっしゃるし、9名参加者がいて、ガイドさん2人来てくれて、先導する役と一番後ろから安全を確認・サポートする役としてしっかりついて、見てくれてました。他のツアーの方がカメを見れない中、うちらは全員バッチリ!(運良くカメさんがお食事で、止まっていた)見れ、カメラをもっていった私たちは、しっかり撮影もしてくれました。泳ぎ疲れたお客さんがいて、最後は直線的に浜辺へ帰る組みと私たち夫婦はまだ泳げるということで、魚を見ながらゆっくり遠回りしながら帰るといった、機転もきいたところもナイスです!やっぱり朝イチのツアーがおススメです。朝の方が「より」(午後と比べたら)透明度いいですからねぇ〜。
どのくらい泳いでいたでしょうか…湾の端から端まで泳いだはずなので、まぁ体力はあるにこしたことないですが、ウエットスーツ(私は持参)レンタルはお勧めします。日焼け防止、そして、なにより、ウエットスーツ着てれば浮力つくので、確実に浮きます!
みなさんもこのハナウマ湾ぜひ楽しんでください!!
魚たくさんみたい、カメにも逢いたい!ということであれば、ガイドさんつけた方がいいですよ。

Personally, I have been to Hanauma Bay several times, but this was my first time joining a tour. As a result, I was able to see a honu up close for the first time and swim alongside it, creating wonderful memories! The guide was a veteran with over 15 years of experience, and at the beginning, they provided snorkeling instructions, making it安心 for beginners. After that, they took us to a spot where we had a high chance of seeing honu. Within about 20 minutes, we encountered a honu while admiring colorful fish, and I was able to swim close enough to touch it. The sight of the honu swimming gracefully, completely unafraid of the people around it, was the ultimate healing experience. They also took many photos underwater, which we received for free later, making it worth more than the price.
When we got back to the sandy beach, the guide offered us water and snacks.
Thank you for a wonderful time! I highly recommend it.
個人的にハナウマ湾には何度か行ったことがありますが、ツアーに参加したのは初めてです。

Setting sail on a cruiser while watching the sunset is a bit romantic. I was worried about the night sea, but with a wetsuit and a float to rest my feet, there was nothing to worry about. I was wondering if we would actually see a manta ray, but one appeared right away, and by the end, there were five. It was an experience like no other, with a large mouth open in front of me, showing its belly and doing flips.
夕日を見ながらクルーザーでの出航ちょっとロマンチックです。夜の海は心配でしたが、ウェットスーツと足を乗せる浮きがあり心配する事もなかったです。肝心のマンタ果たしてくるのか?と思っていましたが、直ぐに1枚現れ、最後には5枚が。目の前を大きな口を開け、腹を見せて宙返り、2度と経験できないような体験でした。

When we arrived, it was just after high tide and the water was up to our waists, but we had a great time! The ocean was beautiful! Amazing!! Just that alone lifted our spirits. The weather was a mix of sunny and cloudy, but it didn't rain.
A turtle, which seemed to be used to the tour guides (like an old friend from childhood), was swimming gently near the boat. We were told not to touch it, shout, or chase it! If we followed these rules, it gradually came closer to us. It was big! So cute!! Everyone was captivated, haha.
It made everyone so happy♪ We didn't go snorkeling; instead, we borrowed some floaties and just floated around, having a blast! It was so much fun! Floaties are the best! The food was delicious too! Kalbi♪
After getting out of the water, it got chilly, so having a warm drink was nice. The coffee was great! This was my second time participating, and I definitely want to come again☆
着いた頃は満潮から少し経った頃で水は腰上でしたが、充分楽しかったです!
海綺麗!最高!!これだけでテンション上がります。
お天気は晴れたり曇ったりでしたが雨は降らずでした。
ツアーのお姉さんに慣れた亀さん(小さい頃からのお友達みたい)が船の近くをユラユラ泳いでます。
触らず、大声出さず、追いかけない!
これを守ればだんだん近寄ってきてくれます。
大きい!可愛い!!
みんな夢中でした 笑
みんな幸せになれますね♪
私達は、シュノーケリングはせず、浮き輪を借りてプカプカユラユラ遊んでました!
最高に楽しい!浮き輪最高!
ご飯も美味しかった!カルビ♪
海から上がると冷えるので温かい飲み物も嬉しかったです。
コーヒー美味しかった!
今回2回目の参加でしたが、また是非来たいと思います☆

Had the best time the boys looked after us the whole time. My girlfriend had a panic attack while in the water and the guys helped her and made her feel relaxed and she was then able to enjoy herself again. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone
. We will be back

This beach is dog-friendly. You can see well-trained, smart dogs happily playing with their owners. My beloved dog also rode a bodyboard and surfed the waves. Bob's pizza is really delicious! It's even better to take it to go and eat it at the beach!
わんこOKのbeachです。躾された賢いわんこが楽しげに飼い主さんと遊ぶ光景がみられます。我が愛犬もbodyboardに乗って波乗りわんこ。してきました(〃∇〃) ボブさんのピザは本当に美味しいです!‘to go’してbeachで食べると尚さいこーっ

I participated with my husband and daughter. My daughter's dream is to swim with sea turtles, but I was a bit anxious since I'm not a good swimmer. However, the guide kindly taught us how to use the snorkel and swim, and after a little practice, I was able to do it. Schools of fish swam right in front of us, large fish came close, and we even saw an eel. Swimming among the beautiful fish felt like being a mermaid. The guide searched for sea turtles while guiding us. And finally, we spotted a sea turtle! It was eating seaweed attached to a rock, so we were able to watch it slowly and thoroughly. My daughter was overjoyed to have her wish come true. My husband also said this was the most fun part of our trip. Thank you for your efforts in finding the sea turtles. We created wonderful memories.
夫と娘と参加しました。娘の夢がホヌと泳ぐことなのですが、私は泳ぎが苦手なので少し不安でした。でも、ガイドさんがシュノーケルの使い方や泳ぎ方を丁寧に教えてくださったので、少し練習するとできるようになりました。目の前を魚の群れが横切ったり、大きな魚が近寄ってきたり、ウツボまで見れました。綺麗な魚の間を泳いで、人魚になった気分です。ガイドさんは私たちを案内しながらホヌを探します。そしてついにホヌを発見!岩についた海藻を食べているので、ゆっくり思う存分見ることができました。娘は念願が叶って大喜び。夫も今回の旅行で一番楽しかったと言っています。頑張ってホヌを探してくださって、ありがとうございました。素敵な思い出ができました。

My first trip to Hawaii!!
I have experienced snorkeling once in Okinawa, but unfortunately, it was rainy, and I couldn't enjoy it due to poor visibility.
This time, I was looking forward to snorkeling because I wanted to see sea turtles.
The tour guide was able to communicate in Japanese, which made me feel at ease.
The ocean was beautiful, and I got to see tropical fish and sea turtles, which was amazing!!
If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would like to use this service once more.
初めてのハワイ旅行!!
沖縄でシュノーケリングを1度体験していますが、あいにくの雨で視界も悪く楽しめませんでした。
今回は、ウミガメに会いたくてシュノーケリングが楽しみでした。
ツアーガイドさんも日本語で会話出来て、安心でした。
海もきれいで、熱帯魚、ウミガメにも会えて最高でした!!
また、ハワイに行く機会があれば、もう一度利用したいと思いました。
Dear Kanikani, thank you for joining the Blue Hawaii Divers tour. Although it was a high tide day, there were hardly any waves, making it very easy to swim, and the visibility was excellent. I've heard that you enjoyed it even more than in Okinawa, which truly makes me happy. I would be delighted if you could join us again when you come back to Hawaii. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
kanikani様、この度はブルーハワイダイバースのツアーに来ていただきましてありがとうございます。この日は満ち潮だったのに全然波が無い日で、とても泳ぎやすくしかも透明度がとても良かったですね。最近亀さんはあの秘密のラグーンにいることが多いのです。沖縄よりも楽しんでいただけたと聞き、本当に嬉しく思います。是非是非、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幸いです。本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

I was able to see manta rays, and I was moved by that, but I suffered from seasickness. After we arrived at the point, it would have been better if they had let us into the water as soon as possible, but we had to wait for quite a while with the boat stopped, and during that time, many people started to feel unwell.
マンタは見られたし、それについては感動もしたけれど、とにかく船酔いで悩まされました。ポイントについた後、できるだけ早く海に入らせてくれればいいものを、船が止まった状態でかなりの時間待たなければならず、その間に気分が悪くなる人続出。
ALOHA!! Thank you for participating in Manta University. We sincerely apologize for the issue with seasickness. There may be times when we need to ask customers to wait a bit due to communication with other boats, but we will strive to ensure that you can get into the water as quickly as possible in the future. Thank you for your valuable feedback, MAHALO!!
ALOHA!! この度はマンタ大学にご参加いただきありがとうございました。船酔いの件、大変申し訳御座いませんでした。他の船との連絡などでお客様に少し待っていただかなければいけない場合もございますが、今後は出来る限り早くお客様に海に入っていただけるようスタッフ一同精進致します。 貴重なご意見をありがとうございました、MAHALO!!

The manta rays were swimming really close by, and it was wonderful. I know they don't eat people, but it felt a bit scary, like they could. Haha.
マンタが本当にスレスレの所で泳いでいて、素敵でした。
食べないのは分かっていますが、食べられそうな感じがしてちょっと怖かったですけど。笑。
ALOHA!! Thank you for participating in Manta University! We are glad you were able to enjoy the powerful manta rays up close. Please come visit us again, MAHALO!!
