I used this service to visit Kailua Beach, Lanikai Beach, and Kailua Town. Once I arrived and received the explanation, I was free to explore at my own pace until the designated time, so I recommend it for those who prefer to go at their own speed.
The Japanese female staff on-site were kind and provided information on how to get to Lanikai Beach and the hills to be careful of while biking.
As everyone else has mentioned, the lunch pizza was very large and delicious.
カイルアビーチ、ラニカイビーチ、カイルアタウンに行きたく利用しました。
現地に到着し、説明を受けたら時間まで自由に行動出来るので、ご自分でペースで行動したい方にはお勧めです。
現地の女性日本人スタッフが親切で、ラニカイビーチへ行き方や自転車で気をつける坂など教えて頂きました。
みなさんが投稿しているように、ランチのピザはとても大きく美味しかったです。

It was our first time snorkeling with kids, and the guides were very kind, making it a fun memory. Although we couldn't see any sea turtles, the guides led us to points where we could see fish and stayed close to the children the whole time. If we have the opportunity to go again, I would definitely like to join this tour!

On the way there and back, we passed both close to and far from the cliffs, allowing us to enjoy the mountainside and the distant scenery. It was a comfortable voyage on the clear waters of the sea. While the engine was running, I had a great time getting soaked with seawater on the front deck with people from various countries. We were the only Japanese people on board, but the crew noticed that my companion didn't understand English very well, and I was really happy that they took special care of us.
行きと帰りで、崖の近くも遠くも通ったので、山肌も遠景も楽しめました。
水のきれいな海で快適な航海です。エンジン走行中は、前のデッキでいろんな国の人と海水でびしょ濡れになって大はしゃぎしました。

I participated in a snorkeling trip to Molokini Island. I had requested transportation, and they arrived on time, allowing us to board the boat without any issues. It took about an hour by boat to reach Molokini Island, and shortly after boarding, we had breakfast. During the trip, Takako gathered us for an explanation. Since we weren't sitting the whole time, I didn't get seasick.
I was incredibly impressed not by the fish, but by the clarity of the water at Molokini Island! I've been to various seas both domestically and internationally, but I've never seen such clear water; it was amazing. It was so clear that it took my breath away.
Afterward, we had lunch, and the burgers we ate on the boat were exceptional! We moved to another spot, and Takako guided us to see sea turtles, so we were able to see them multiple times. Additionally, when we went, dolphins showed themselves to us!
There were many foreigners on the boat, but Takako was always attentive, so it was perfectly fine. I would love to request this again when I visit Maui.
モロキニ島シュノーケルに参加しました。
送迎もお願いしておりましたが時間通りに来て下さって無事船に乗る事が出来ました。
モロキニ島までは船で一時間程で、乗船してすぐ朝食、途中でタカコさんに召集され説明を受けました。座りっぱなしではないので船酔いはしませんでした。
モロキニ島はお魚ではなくその透明度に非常に感動しました!
国内や海外の様々な海に行きましたが、こんなに透明な海は初めてで素晴らしかったです。
透明過ぎて身がすくむ程です。
その後昼食があり船の上で食べるバーガーは別格です!
別ポイントに移動し海ガメもタカコさんが場所を教えて下さるので何度も見られました。
また、私達が行った時はイルカが姿を見せてくれました!
船には外国人も沢山いますが、タカコさんが常に気を使って下さるので全然大丈夫です。
またマウイ島に行く際はお願いしたいです。

This was an amazing experience. Our captain and the diver were really great. While we were "waiting" for the mantas to arrive, our diver went to the ocean floor to pick up some sea urchins and sea cucumbers to show us. He put them back of course, but it made the trip even more interesting. Them the mantas arrived and put on an amazing show!

It was like a dream to see wild dolphins passing underneath and in front of me!! It felt like I was swimming with them, and it was so much fun! It reminded me of when I was a child and wanted to become a dolphin trainer after seeing dolphins at the aquarium. I thought to myself that this is what it means to have a lifetime of youth and excitement! There was also a turtle that came up right next to me, and I panicked because I was too close even though I knew I shouldn't touch it! The pineapple I had on the boat was sweet and delicious too! It was such a wonderful experience☆

We participated as a family of four. I wondered if we could really swim with wild dolphins as we departed the port at 7:30. Contrary to my expectations, we quickly encountered a pod of dolphins. We got ready and dove into the sea with the kids. About 10 to 15 dolphins swam slowly beneath us, and our whole family was moved. The dolphin swim was surprisingly short, and I wished we could swim longer, but when we got back on the boat, I was shocked at how tired I felt. I realized that amount of time was just right. After the dolphins, we swam with sea turtles. We encountered them right away, and the kids were thrilled to see them up close. We tried hard to take our own photos, but it turned out to be surprisingly difficult, and we didn't get good shots. Instead, I was very satisfied to purchase the data from a professional photographer for $50. The staff and the director were very polite, and we had a great time throughout. This must have been an unforgettable experience for the kids (and of course for the adults too). Personally, I think this tour is definitely worth participating in.
家族4人で参加しました。野生のイルカと泳ぐなんて、そんなことできるのかと思いながら7:30に港を出港。予想とは裏腹に、すぐにイルカの群れと遭遇。準備して子供達と海へダイブ。10~15頭ぐらいのイルカが自分たちの下をゆっくりと泳いでいて、家族全員感動しました。イルカスイムは意外と時間が短くもっと泳いでいたいと思ってましたが、船に上がったら予想以上に体が疲れていてビックリ。あれぐらいの時間がちょうどいいんだと実感しました。イルカの後は、ウミガメとのスイム。すぐに遭遇でき、こちらも間近で見る事ができ子供達も大はしゃぎでした。自分たちで写真に収めようと頑張ったんですが、これが意外と難しくうまく取れませんでした。その代わりに、$50しましたがプロのカメラマンのデータを購入でき大満足。スタッフの方や学長も対応がとても丁寧で、終始気分よく過ごせました。子供たちにとっては一生忘れられない体験になったはずです(当然大人にとっても)。個人的には、このツアーへ参加する価値は大いにあると思います。

My 10-year-old son had an experience there. As mentioned in other reviews, the language barrier and budget are issues. I've been interested in Dolphin Quest for a while and thought I would let him participate if the opportunity arose. My son, who doesn't speak much English, joined a group with other foreign families and seemed to enjoy touching the dolphins. My wife and I, who did not participate, watched from the sidelines. While the pricing may be set based on costs for caring for the dolphins and labor, I thought it would be easier to participate if there were more discounts available. The photo prices are also high.
息子10歳が体験してきました.他の方の口コミにもあるように,英語と予算が問題になりますね.ドルフィン・クエストは以前から気になっていて,チャンスがあったら参加させようと思っていました.あまり英語のできない息子は,他の外人の家族のグループに入ってイルカに触れたり,それなりに楽しそうにしていました.参加しない家内と小生は,周りで見学です.イルカを飼育していくための経費とか,人件費などで料金設定されているのかもしれませんが,もう少し利用料金の割引などあると参加しやすいのかなぁ,と思いました.写真も高いです.

We were picked up at the hotel at 7 AM and traveled by large bus to the pier. I was worried about the heavy rain in the mountains along the way, but fortunately, by the time we boarded the boat, the rain had stopped. It was cloudy, but the sun started to shine, which was great. As I had researched beforehand, the water was about knee-deep, and we couldn't see the sandbar. The snorkeling experience was serious, and the staff provided thorough instructions while we wore life jackets. The corals and fish were beautiful, but if the weather had been a bit better, they might have looked even more stunning. The experience is quite dependent on the weather. We opted for a morning-only tour, and that was sufficient.
朝の7時にホテルピックアップで大型バスで船着き場まで移動。途中山中では大雨でどうなることかと心配しましたが幸い船に乗る頃には雨が止んでいて曇ってはいたものの日が射してきたので良かったです。事前に調べていた通り膝下くらいまで水が浸かりサンドバーは見れなかったです。シュノーケリングは本格的でライフジャケット着用でスタッフがきっちり教えてくれます。珊瑚や魚もキレイに見えましたがもう少し天気が良かったらもっとキレイに見えたのかも。天気にかなり左右されます。午前中だけのツアーにしましたがそれで十分でした。

This is my third time, but 10 years ago... it was amazing. Five years ago... it was okay. This time... it was the worst. There were hardly any fish or turtles, and many people couldn't see any turtles. The number of boats has increased, and I didn't feel the charm. I don't think I'll go to Molokini on my next trip to Maui.

Please understand that, as sea turtles and fish are natural creatures, there may be times when you cannot see them. I can imagine how disappointing it must have been not to observe many sea turtles and fish during the highly anticipated Molokini Island snorkeling tour.

I used to dive every year, but recently I switched to snorkeling, and I was told that I should definitely see the manta rays, so I participated. For the first 30 minutes, the manta rays didn't appear, and I was worried I wouldn't be able to endure the seasickness. When the manta finally showed up, it circled right beneath us multiple times, and it was an incredible experience. It's amazing that such a large creature doesn't attack. Once it appeared, it stayed right below us the whole time.
However, since I was feeling seasick, I returned to the boat earlier than the others. On the way out, we were given either canned ginger ale, juice, or water along with snacks. I chose the ginger ale, thinking I had to drink it all, and I ended up feeling too full. For those who are prone to seasickness, I recommend taking your drink back with you and just sipping a little of what you brought.
Also, for those who have never snorkeled before, I think it would be a bit difficult unless you practice in the sea first. If you're prone to seasickness, I think it's better to sign up for a tour that departs from in front of the Sheraton Hotel.
ダイビングを毎年していた人が、この頃はシュノーケルに変えて、その中でもマンタだけは見た方がよいというので、参加しました。マンタが最初30分ぐらい現れず、船酔いもしていたので、気持ち悪くて耐えられるか心配でした。やっと現れたマンタは、何度も私たちの体の真下を旋回して、それはそれはすごい経験でした。あんなに体が大きいのに、襲わないなんて不思議です。一度現れた後は、ずっと真下にいました。
ただ船酔いをしていたので、他の人よりは早く船に戻りました。行きに缶のジンジャエールか、ジュースか水とお菓子をもらうのですが、私はジンジャエールをもらい、最後まで飲まなきゃいけないと思って、全部飲んだら胃が満杯になってしまったのだと思います。酔いやすい人は、それは持ち帰って、自分が持ってきた飲み物を少しだけ飲むことをお勧めします。
またシュノーケルを一度もやったことがない人は、海で練習してからでないと、ちょっと無理だと思います。
酔いやすい人は、シェラトンホテルの前で見ることになるので、そちらから出るツアーを申し込んだ方がよいと思います。

It seems that the encounter rate with manta rays is almost 100%. We were able to see them perfectly during our time there. The manta rays showed themselves more than ten times, and on one occasion, we even saw their underside.
On the way to the dive site, we encountered a pod of dolphins and were very satisfied to see them jumping out of the water.
Our guide, Musashi, was handsome and kind. I would love to do this again if the opportunity arises.
マンタとの遭遇率はほぼ100%のようです。

We were fortunate to go on a day that there were only about 10 of us, so we basically had the boat to ourselves! It was great! I mean you are snorkling with green sea turtles and sailing in Hawaii "what's not to love"?! I highly recommend Holokai Catamaran Turtle Canyon Snorkel Sail (from Waikiki Beach) / Snorkel Cruise!

Two years ago, I participated in a tour that included lunch. This time, I joined a morning tour, but the time spent at the sandbar was short, and I felt a bit unsatisfied. However, I was able to return to the hotel for lunch, so I could make good use of my time.
2年前にはランチ付きのツアーに参加しました。
今回は午前中のツアーに参加したのですが、サンドバーの滞在時間も短く、ちょっと物足りない感じがしてしまいました。
しかし、お昼にはホテルに戻って来られたので時間を有効に使うことができました。

We enjoyed cruising from Kailua to the area near the sandbar on a catamaran. Although we didn't land on the sandbar, we had fun snorkeling and enjoyed free drinks and a barbecue (hamburgers) on board, which I liked. The boat was chartered for the number of reservations, and this time we set off with two boats. There happened to be many Japanese people, so one boat was filled to capacity with Japanese passengers. The languages spoken were English and Japanese. I wasn't sure if there were other languages, but the tourists were definitely from various countries. Everyone became friendly, taking photos together. The contrast between the steep mountains unique to Hawaii and the emerald-colored sea of the sandbar was beautiful, and I almost forgot to look for sea turtles, but the crew was quick to point them out. It was beautiful, pleasant, and fun. The leisurely afternoon course included only the cruise and snorkeling, with no exploration of Kailua town, but I was satisfied. I participated with my mother and child, wearing a tunic and hoodie over our swimsuits, and brought a beach towel, float, and sunscreen. They provided snorkeling sets and life jackets.
カイルアからカタマランクルーザーでサンドバー付近までクルージングを楽しみます。サンドバーへは上陸しませんが、スノーケリングを楽しみ船上ではフリードリンク、バーベキュー(ハンバーガー)を食べます、私は好き。予約者が乗れる分の船がチャーターされていて、今回は2挺で出発。たまたま日本人が多かったので、1挺は日本人で満タンになりました。言語は、英語と日本語の二言語です。他言語があったかどうかはわかりませんでしたが、ツーリストはとにかく多国籍でした。写真を撮りあったりしてみんな仲良しになります。ハワイ特有の切り立つ山の景色とサンドバーのエメラルド色の海のコントラストが美しく、ウミガメ探しを忘れてしまいそうですが、クルーが目敏く教えてくれます。美しく、気持ちよく、楽しかった。午後から出発するのんびりコースはクルーズとスノーケリングのみで、カイルア街の散策はナシですが、満足しました。母と子供で参加し、水着の上にチュニックとパーカーを羽織り、バスタオルと浮き輪とサンブロックを持って出掛けました。スノーケルセットとライフジャケットは貸してくれます。

We thoroughly enjoyed thrilling rafting and beautiful snorkeling in the ocean under wonderful weather! The service from the captain and crew was absolutely five-star! In the morning, we were able to swim leisurely before the snorkeling spot at Kealakekua Bay became crowded with boats, and we got to see and even touch many dolphins up close. The sea, sparkling like a jewel, was also very satisfying. My kids (especially my son) were thrilled, saying the captain was an excellent navigator and super cool, and that this was the most fun they’ve ever had on a trip. They can’t wait to join again next time!
★ Sunscreen is a must. Sunglasses and a lightweight beach towel are also essential. It gets quite chilly while swimming. You might not need a hat as it could blow away. Since large bags cannot be taken on the boat, it’s best to bring only what you need in a compact backpack. Sandals are sufficient for footwear. My younger child (9) can swim but borrowed a life jacket from the reception office (which is free, of course). My older child (13) got tired and borrowed a noodle (a floating tube like macaroni) halfway through. Having a noodle makes it easier. There isn’t a specific place to change after returning, so you’ll either stay in your swimsuit or change in the rental car. There was a restaurant and restroom where we disembarked! ★
素晴らしいお天気の中、スリリングなラフティングと美しい海のシュノーケルを存分に楽しみました!なんと言っても、サービス満点なキャプテン&クルーは5つ星間違いなし!朝、ケアラケクア湾のシュノーケルスポットが船で溢れ返ってしまう前にゆっくりと泳げましたし、沢山のイルカを触れるほど間近で見ることもできました。宝石のような輝きの海にも大満足でした。子供たち(特に息子)はキャプテンは操縦がうまくてめちゃくちゃかっこいいし今回の旅で一番楽しかったと大喜びでした。次回も参加したいと大はしゃぎです!
★日焼け止めは必須です。サングラス、それからバスタオルは薄手の物でも必ず持った方が良いです。泳いでいるとだいぶ冷えます。帽子は飛ばされちゃいますのでいらないかと。ボートに大きな荷物は載せられないので、コンパクトなリュックに必要なものだけ持っていくと良いでしょう。履物はサンダルで十分です。
下の子(9)は泳げますが受付事務所でライフジャケットを借りました(もちろん無料です)上の子(13)疲れて途中でヌードル(マカロニみたいな浮くチューブ)を借りました。ヌードルがあると楽です。帰りに着替える場所は特に無いので、水着のままかレンタカーの中で着替えるかになります。下船した所にレストランとトイレがありましたよ★

I got to see colorful fish, and at the end of the tour, I even met a sea turtle. It swam right towards me, so I could see its face perfectly. It had such cute eyes. Thank you, Chieko, for working hard to find the spot with the sea turtles! Mr. Dan took many underwater photos for us, which will be great memories.
It was a very busy schedule with a morning tour and returning home in the afternoon, but I was picked up separately from the other participants and was able to return to the hotel earlier than planned. I really appreciated that consideration.
It was a wonderful experience to wrap up the trip. My whole family was very satisfied. Mahalo!
色とりどりのお魚と、ツアーの最後にはウミガメにも会えました。
こちらに向かって泳いできたので、ばっちりお顔が見えました。かわいい目をしていました。
ウミガメのいるポイントを一生懸命探してくれたチエコさん、ありがとう~(^o^)
ダン先生にはたくさんの水中写真を撮っていただきました。いい記念になります。
午前のツアーで、午後には帰国という大変あわただしいスケジュールでしたが、他の参加者とは別の車で送迎していただき、予定よりも早くホテルに戻ることができました。ご配慮、ありがたかったです~~m(_ _)m
旅の最後を締めくくる素敵な体験でした。家族全員、大満足でした。マハロ!
Dear Ecchan, thank you for participating in the tour with your family of four. Since it was the first time for you to return on an afternoon flight, I was quite nervous until I could safely send you to the hotel. I'm glad you made it in time for your flight. The tide was very low that day, so we couldn't swim over the corals near Keyhole, but we went out from Sandman's Patch and were able to meet a turtle when we returned inside. The turtles really have such cute eyes! You all swam a lot, so I'm sure everyone had a good sleep on the flight back home.
Please do come back to Hawaii and visit Hanauma Bay again. We are always waiting for you. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
えっちゃん様、この度はご家族4名様でツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございます。午後の飛行機で帰国するとの初めてのパターンでしたので、無事にホテルにお送り出来るまでは私もドキドキしました。飛行機に間に合ってよかったです。この日はとても引き潮でキーホール辺りのサンゴの上が泳げなかったので、サンドマンズパッチから沖に出て、最後にインサイドに戻った所で亀さんに会えた日でした。本当に亀さんの目はかわいいですよね!!たくさん泳いでいただきましたので、帰国の飛行機の中では皆さん熟睡されたことでしょう。
是非また皆様でハワイにお越しの際にはハナウマベイに遊びに来てくださいね。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!!

From the hotel transfer to snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, I appreciated all the thoughtful arrangements, which allowed us to participate with joy and peace of mind. They mentioned that the route changes depending on the sea conditions, and that day we encountered a sea turtle right as we entered the water! We were really lucky. I think it would have been difficult to encounter one without a guide.
We travel as a family to various places, but without a doubt, this experience will remain in everyone's memory for a long time. Thank you both!
ホテルの送迎からシュノーケリングでハナウマベイホテルの送迎からシュノーケリングでのハナウマベイ横断まで、いろいろ気配りいただき、楽しく安心して参加できました。その日の海のコンディションによってルートを変えるとのことで、その日は海に入っていきなりウミガメに遭遇!本当にラッキーでしたね。ガイドなしで自分たちだけだったら出逢うのは難しいと思いました。
家族旅行でいろいろなところに行きますが、間違いなくこの経験はみんなの記憶にずっと残るものになるでしょう。お二人ともありがとうございました!
Dear Yuka, thank you for participating with your group of five. On this day, we started in the opposite direction than usual, beginning at the secret lagoon where turtles have been frequently spotted. As expected, we were lucky to see two turtles in the same spot. All the participants were very skilled as well. We will continue to work hard to ensure everyone enjoys their experience, so please join us again when you come back to Hawaii. We look forward to seeing you!! Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
Yuka様、この度は5名様でご参加いただきありがとうございます。この日はいつもとは逆周りで最初に最近亀がよくいる秘密のラグーンからスタートした日でした。案の定、同じ所に2匹の亀さんが居てくれてとてもラッキーな日でもありましたね。参加者の皆さんもとてもお上手でした。これからも皆様に楽しんでいただけます様に頑張ろうと思っておりますので、またハワイにお越しの際にはツアーに来てくださいね。お待ちしています!!
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

For those who want to experience the sandbar, which is often featured on television, I recommend it because the time is only in the morning and the price is reasonable. There were many participants, with two buses and two boats operating.
Before heading to the sandbar, we looked for sea turtles. We were able to see about five or six, but they only come up for air briefly, making it difficult to take photos. After seeing the turtles, we went to the sandbar.
On the day we went, the water was up to our knees, and there were some complaints. It seems that the relaxing setup with chairs, as seen on TV, is quite rare. After the photo session at the sandbar (the staff takes the pictures), we went snorkeling.
We walked to the point where the sandbar suddenly gets deep, which took about 5 to 10 minutes. I got stung by a jellyfish during that time. The staff had warned us to be careful. The jellyfish were small, so it was quite difficult to spot them if you weren't paying attention.
A tip to avoid getting stung by jellyfish: don't walk at the front! I was at the front and got stung. It hurts quite a bit; it's a prickly pain, and since jellyfish tentacles are long, the pain can be quite widespread. After being stung, it turns into a small bump, and the mark lasts for a few days. For children, it might be a bit challenging as they might scratch it. Please be careful.
Since many people participate in snorkeling, the water can be murky and visibility is poor. The staff was feeding the fish with bread to attract them. After the activity, they ask for tips, but it’s not mandatory, so quite a few people didn’t give any. The staff were cheerful and had a good vibe.
テレビでもよく取り上げられるサンドバーに一度は行ってみたい人には、時間も午前中だけだし、値段も手頃なのでオススメです。
多数の参加者で、バス2台、舟2隻の運行でした。
サンドバーに行く前に海がめを探します。5~6匹は見れましたが、息継ぎする瞬間だけ頭を上げるので、写真に残すのは難しいです。カメを見た後にサンドバーに行きます。
私たちが行った日は、海水は膝上ぐらいで、クレームを言っている人も居ました。テレビで見たような、椅子を出してくつろげるような状態は、めったに無いそうです。
サンドバーで写真撮影タイム(スタッフの人が撮ってくれます)が終わったら、シュノーケリングです。
シュノーケリングはサンドバーの急に深くなるポイントまで歩きます。5~10分程度です。
私はその時にくらげに刺されました。スタッフの人も注意を促してましたが。小さいクラゲですので、よほど注意していないと見つけるのは困難です。
クラゲに刺されないコツ! 先頭を歩かない!先頭を泳がない!私は先頭を歩いていて刺されました。
さされると、結構痛いですね。チクチクした痛みですが、クラゲの足が長いので、結構広範囲に痛いです。さされた後は小さいイボになり、数日は後が残ります。子供だと掻いてしまったり、少し大変かも知れません。お気をつけ下さい。
シュノーケリングはたくさんの人が参加するので。濁っていてよく見えません。スタッフの人がパン?を与えて魚を寄せていました。
終わったらチップをお願いされます。強要はされないので、入れない人も結構いました。
スタッフの方は明るくてよい感じでした。
