I was deeply moved to encounter so many dolphins. My 7-year-old daughter went snorkeling for the first time, and thanks to the incredibly kind support from Daisuke and Keiko, we were able to have the best time. Our whole family was so touched that we can't express it in words. We are very grateful to Captain Nawata for all his help, to all the guides we met, and to the nature of the Big Island. Thank you for everything.
沢山のイルカに出会うことができとっても感動しました。7歳の娘は初めてのシュノーケルでしたが、ダイスケさんとけいこさんのとっても優しいサポートのお陰で最高の時間を過ごすことができました。
家族全員とにかく感動で、言葉では言い表すことができない位です。
船長の縄田さんにもとってもお世話になり、ガイドの皆さんに出会えたこと、ハワイ島の自然、全てに感謝申し上げます。

I was looking forward to the sandbar.
The staff were fun people, and the sandbar was very beautiful.
However, it was disappointing that it wasn't the sandbar I had imagined.
I had envisioned it during low tide...
It's a natural occurrence, so there's nothing that can be done about it.
I should have asked the staff what time the tide goes out or done more research.
Since I went on the morning course, I wonder if the tide would have been out if I had chosen the afternoon course.
Next time, I want to go when the tide is out.
But it was very beautiful, and I was truly moved!
楽しみにしていたサンドバー。
スタッフも楽しい方々でしたし、
サンドバーもとても綺麗でした。
ただイメージしていたサンドバーではなかったのが残念でした。

もっと調べておけば良かったです。
午前のコースだったので、
午後コースだったら、潮が引いていたのでしょうか。

If you want to do something typical of Hawaii, I recommend this. There were many families with children, and the staff was considerate, making for a satisfying tour. The lunch consisted of hamburgers made with grilled meat on the boat. While it wasn't incredibly delicious, just eating on the boat was enjoyable. During the final snorkeling, I was lucky enough to swim with a sea turtle, which made for a wonderful memory.
ハワイらしいことをしたいなら、オススメです。お子様連れも多く、スタッフの方も気遣ってくれて満足のいくツアーでした。ランチも船上で焼いたお肉でハンバーグで、すごい美味しいって訳では無いけれど、船上で食べてるってだけで楽しいです。最後のシュノーケリングではウミガメとも運よく一緒に泳ぐことができて素敵な思い出になりました。

You take off your shoes at the dock and board the boat barefoot. Most of the passengers are Westerners, with about 10% being Asians, including Japanese. The crew spoke only English, but they were friendly and pleasant. After departing, drinks and appetizers are served. Following that, you can enjoy dishes including tacos. It gets quite rocky, so I think it's better to wear a swimsuit.
船着き場で靴を脱いで裸足で船に乗り込みます。ほとんどが欧米人で日本人を含むアジア系は1割程度でしょうか、クルーは英語オンリーでしたがフレンドリーな感じで好感が持てました。出発してしばらくするとドリンクとオードブルがでます。その後はタコスを含む料理が楽しめます。結構揺れますので水着で乗った方がいいと思います。

This was my second time participating in the OP with VERTRA. I had a good impression from the first time and it was a fun experience. This time, I participated with my family: my husband and daughter. My daughter has disabilities in her hands and feet, so she cannot swim. She has never been to a pool or the ocean with friends. However, we had been to Hawaii several times, and I always wanted her to experience snorkeling or participating in ocean activities someday. This time, I decided to take the plunge, and I was able to see my daughter’s happy face. Although it was just for a short time, we were able to enjoy snorkeling. This was all thanks to the staff of Heavenly Ocean Tours, especially Yuki, who encouraged us by saying, "I'll assist you, let's go together," which I truly appreciated. Thank you very much. It was a wonderful OP. I definitely want to participate again.
VERTRAさんのOPは、2回目の参加です。1回目も悪い印象はなく、楽しい思いでです。
今回は、家族3人での参加でした。夫婦、娘です。娘が手と足に、障害があり泳ぐことができません。友達とプール、海なども行ったこともないです。でも、ハワイには、何度か来ていたので、いつか、シュノーケリングや海でのOPに参加させて、あげたいと思っていました。今回、思い切って、参加して娘の喜ぶ顔も、見れたしシュノーケリングも少しの時間でしたが、楽しむことが、できました。それも、ひとえに、天国海ツアーのスタッフ・・特に、YUKIさんが、補助しますから、一緒に行きましょうと、声をかけて下さり、本当に、ありがたかったです・・感謝です。本当にありがとうございました・・・とっても、素敵なOPでした。

I participated two years ago and it was so great that I joined again. Naturally, the staff, the boat, and the menu were all exactly the same. However, I felt that the snorkeling time was extremely short. It was like, "Wait, is it already over?!" Unfortunately, there were no fish at all. The coral reef might have fewer fish now. So, if snorkeling is your main focus, it might be a bit disappointing. The staff's service is excellent. The hamburger was just as delicious as last time.
2年前に参加。非常によかったのでまた参加してきました。
当然ですがスタッフの顔ぶれも船もメニューも全く同じ。
ですが、シュノーケリングの時間が極端に短かったように思います。
「え、もう終わり?!」という感じ。
また残念ながら魚が全くいなかった。
もうあのサンゴ礁には魚が少なくなっているのかもしれませんね。
なのでシュノーケリングをメインにするとちょっと残念な感じになるかもしれません。
スタッフの対応は最高です。

Our experience from start to finish was exceptional! The shuttle ride started with a wonderful ride from Emanual- she was friendly and conversational, making our time feel like it was spent with a friend. She was knowledgeable about the Island and told us interesting things. She suggested we rent a car and we did- the next day! Thanks Em so worth it! On the boat Em and Captain Jenna were wonderful. Our teenager got a little sick but they didn't give up on her, with their words of encouragement and support we set sail. Our 8 year old was afraid and because of you two ladies she got in and snorkeled with an 80year old turltle. Words can express that magic of that experience! We are eagerly anticipating the pictures photographer Paul took. Your attention to detail and obvious dedication to your craft is remarkable. Thank you team dolphin excursion for loving what you do and sharing that with my family. Mahalo!

My reason for coming to the Big Island was that I learned about this tour from the Dolphin University I attended on Oahu. This time, I finally got to participate, and I had high expectations.
The manta rays were truly enormous, coming so close with their mouths wide open that I thought they might bump into me. However, it was fascinating how they would spin around without hitting me.
It was an exhilarating experience and a lot of fun. I believe it was a rare opportunity to get so close to so many mantas. The boat ride to and from the point was thrilling as it went at high speed, which added to the enjoyment.
ハワイ島へ来るきっかけは、以前オアフで参加したイルカ大学でこのツアーを知ったことでした。この度、念願かない大いに期待して参加しました。
マンタは本当に大きくて、ぶつかるのではないかと思うほどすぐ近くまで大きな口を開けて近づいてきます。しかし、こちらには当たらずにくるりと回転するのが不思議でした。
大迫力で楽しかったです。たくさんのマンタにこんな接近できるなんて貴重な体験だったと思います。
ポイントへの往復のボートも猛スピードでスリルがあり楽しめました。

The morning reservation was fully booked, so we ended up on the afternoon tour, but the fish were beautiful, and we got to see a sea turtle, which made us very satisfied! I think we definitely wouldn't have found them on our own. The waves were a bit high, and my 6-year-old son, who was snorkeling for the first time, got scared, but the two instructors carried him on their backs the whole time. When he spotted the sea turtle, he managed to see it with his own eyes, and he said, "Next time, I'll try harder!" My daughter, who loves fish, was really happy because Teacher Chieko taught her a lot of things.
午前の予約が空いてなくて取れず、午後ツアーになってしまいましたが

Thank you for bringing your whole family on the tour. Your son, who was swimming on Dan's back like a little turtle, was very cute. Your daughter, the fish expert, was very interesting to talk to. There were a few waves, but since everyone persevered and swam until the end, perhaps that’s why the turtles came to visit us. We look forward to having your family join us again. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!

I found out about an activity where you can swim with dolphins and made a reservation after arriving on-site. There were three groups of six people on the boat. The female captain was very cheerful and kind, allowing everyone to try multiple times until we could swim with the dolphins. Wild dolphins are very fast, so it felt more like a lucky observation rather than swimming together, but seeing the dolphins underwater was incredibly cute and a valuable experience! Swimming with dolphins requires some luck, and they appear for just a moment, so I was very satisfied with choosing a tour that included snorkeling. The water where we snorkeled was extremely clear, and there were many fish! It was beautiful.
However, compared to other dolphin tours, the price is high even without transportation. I think it's understandable due to the small group size. That said, the atmosphere was very homey and enjoyable, and it was nice to learn about Hawaii's history at a relaxed pace. The fruits and tea we had after snorkeling were also very delicious. The speedboat was thrilling, comparable to a roller coaster, and that was one of the fun aspects of the tour! Motion sickness medication is a must! Even with sunscreen, you can get quite sunburned, so I was glad I wore a rash guard!
イルカと泳げるアクティビティがあると知り現地に到着してから予約しました。
乗船したのは3組6名。女性の船長さんはとても明るく優しい方で全員がイルカと泳げるまで何度も挑戦させて下さいました。野生のイルカはとても速く、一緒に泳ぐというよりは泳いでいるのを観察できたらラッキーという感じですが水中で見るイルカはとても可愛くて貴重な経験になりました!イルカと泳ぐには運も必要だし、イルカがいるのは本当に一瞬なのでシュノーケリング付きのツアーにした事で満足度がかなり上がりました♪シュノーケリングをした海は透明度がすごくて魚もたくさん!とてもキレイでした☆
ただ、他のイルカツアーに比べると、送迎無しにも関わらず値段が高いです。少人数制なので仕方ないとは思います。その分アットホームな雰囲気で楽しかったですし、ハワイの歴史などもゆっくりと教えて頂けたのは良かったです。シュノーケリングの後に頂いたフルーツもお茶もとっても美味しかったです☆
高速船はジェットコースター並の迫力でそれもこのツアーの楽しさの1つでした☆酔い止めは必須です!日焼け止めを塗っていてもかなり焼けるので、ラッシュガードを着ておいてよかったです!
Thank you, Kiki, for taking the time to write a review. Yes, the highlight of our tours is providing a small group experience (with a maximum of six people) in a homey atmosphere. Additionally, since we operate our own boat, you won't have to share with other companies. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed snorkeling in Kealakekua Bay, which is a marine protected area. It's truly a beautiful place. Thank you very much for your review, which will be helpful for other customers.

I checked the tide chart and participated during the lowest tide, but I still got soaked up to my knees. Since the sandbar was my goal, I was a bit disappointed about that. The sandbar seemed to stretch quite a long way, but perhaps the tour companies stop at different places to disembark. However, I thoroughly enjoyed the stunning views of the blue sky, the sea, and the surrounding mountains. I also saw sea turtles and mantas, but overall, I feel it might be more geared towards younger people.
潮目表を見て最低水位の時に参加したもののの、膝くらいまでは浸かりました。サンドバーが目的でしたので、その点は残念です。サンドバー(浅瀬)はかなり長い範囲につながっているように見えましたが、ツアー会社によって船をとめて降りる場所が違うのかもしれません。もっとも、青空と海、そして周辺の山の景色は極上で堪能しました。
ウミガメやマンタも見れましたが、全体的に若者向けかな〜という気がします。

Since this is a nature tour, it's understandable, but the bad weather and poor visibility left me feeling unsatisfied...
Regarding snorkeling, we all swam in a line along a predetermined route, so I was too focused on keeping up with everyone to really enjoy the underwater experience... (We had a group with both strong and weak swimmers, including children.)
Also, I had somewhat prepared myself for this in advance, but the water level at the sandbar was only up to my knees at most. Jumping for a photo was impossible.
自然が相手のツアーなので仕方がないのですが、天気が悪い&透明度が悪くて、不完全燃焼でした……
スノーケルに関しては、決まっているルートを全員で一列になって泳ぐため、周りに合わせるので精一杯で海の中を楽しむ余裕があまりありませんでした…(泳げる人や泳げない人、子供などの団体になる為)
あとは、事前にある程度は覚悟していましたが、こちらのツアーではサンドバーでの海水位が膝下が精一杯でした。

This was my first experience with my family. Personally, it was my third time, but I’ll briefly outline the pros and cons.
First, the pros:
1. The marina is very close to the points, so the total travel time is short.
2. The boat is large and comfortable.
3. There was a child who gets seasick on board, but since the points are close, I think it was relatively easy for them.
Now, the cons:
1. The explanations are only in English, but I don’t think that will be a problem.
2. The journey is short, so you can’t enjoy the scenery of Kona town.
Depending on the timing, I think the LED lights were strong, and we had a relatively good number of sightings.
I plan to come back here next time as well.
家族連れでは初体験でした。
個人的には3度目でしたが簡単に長所と短所を書いておきます。
まず長所
1、マリーナからポイントまでが非常に近くに全行程の所要時間が短くて済む。
2、船が大きくて快適。
3、船酔いしやすい子が同船してましたがポイントまでが近いので比較的楽だと思います。
で短所
1、英語の説明しかないが困る事は無いと思う。
2、道中が短いのでコナの街の景色を眺める事が出来ない。
タイミングにもよると思いますがLEDのライトが強く比較的沢山来てくれたと思います。
次回からもここにしようと思います。

I participated with my child. I used to be a diver, but I hadn't been in the ocean for quite a long time, so I was worried about my physical condition. However, with a Japanese guide who provided thorough explanations and plenty of floatation devices, I was able to swim without any issues. We also saw three sea turtles. While I didn't feel the same excitement as I had when I saw many corals and fish during my previous diving experiences, the guide was pleasant, and we had a fun time.

Thank you very much for all your help this time. Thanks to you, the weather was great, and I was able to see the vast Big Island of Hawaii and the long-desired Kilauea Volcano from the sky. If I had to say, it would have been perfect to see a bit more volcanic activity, but I suppose we can't go against nature (laughs). However, I was satisfied as I could clearly see the lava flowing.
I was a bit concerned about the budget, but considering it as a once-in-a-lifetime memory, I don't think it was expensive at all.
このたびはいろいろお世話になりありがとうございました。おかげさまで天気もよく、広大なハワイ島と念願のキラウエア火山を空から観ることができました。敢えて言うならばもう少し活発な火山活動が観られたら最高でしたが、さすがに自然には逆らえませんね(苦笑)。でも溶岩が流れ出ている様子などはハッキリ見えたので満足しています。
予算的にはどうかなと思いましたが、一生の思い出と考えれば決して高くはないと思いますよ。

It was incredibly cloudy and extremely cold... I participated on a day that was so cold, I couldn't believe it was Hawaii. The scenery was also disappointing due to the clouds, and the sandbar had water levels only up to my knees, which was a big failure. It was so cold that I didn't participate in snorkeling and waited on the boat instead. I think if you're going to the sandbar, you should definitely choose the right season to go.
The staff were very cheerful and tried their best to lift the mood; they were kind and pleasant. If I ever go again for a revenge trip, I would choose this tour.
とにかく曇っていて滅茶苦茶寒かった。。。
ハワイでこんなに寒いことってあるのか・・・というくらい寒い日に参加してしまいました。
そして、曇っていた分、景色もイマイチで、肝心のサンドバーも膝上くらいまでの水位だったので、大失敗でした。
あまりに寒いので、シュノーケリングには参加せず、船で待機させて頂きました。
サンドバーに行くなら、やはりちゃんと時期を選んで行くべきだと思いました。
スタッフの方達は、とても明るく、何とか盛り上げようとしてくれて、親切で感じが良かったですし、いつかまたリベンジで行くならば、このツアーを選びます。

I visited Kauai for the first time last year and loved it, so I returned again this year. I did the Na Pali Coast cruise last year as well, but this time I chose a tour that allowed snorkeling off the coast of Niihau and got us close to the cliffs.
The snorkeling off Niihau was fantastic, with some deep areas to explore, and getting close to the cliffs was very impressive.
However, the boat does rock quite a bit. On the day of the tour, the sea conditions were very calm, but especially on the way back, it swayed quite a lot, possibly to pick up speed. Our family barely avoided getting seasick (except for my father, who took motion sickness medication), but it was a close call. The foreign ladies on board were being handed buckets one after another.
If you are prone to motion sickness or have any concerns, I recommend taking motion sickness medication.
That said, I believe this tour is worth participating in, even with medication. I especially recommend it for those who are experiencing the Na Pali Coast tour for the first time!
去年カウアイ島を初めて訪れとても気に入り、今年再び。ナ・パリ・コーストのクルーズは去年もしましたが、今回はニイハウ島沖でシュノーケルができ、絶壁近くまで接近してくれるこのツアーを選びました。
ニイハウ島沖でのシュノーケルは水深の深い部分もあり、とても楽しめました。また、絶壁への接近もとても見ごたえがありました。
ただ、船がかなり揺れます。ツアー当日、海の状態はとても穏やかでしたが、特に帰路はスピートを出すためか、かなりの勢いで縦横に揺れます。我々家族は辛うじて酔いませんでしたが(父親以外酔い止め薬服用)、ギリギリの感じでした。外国のご婦人方は次々とバケツを渡されていました。
乗り物酔いをしやすい方、少しでもご心配な方は酔い止め薬を飲むことをお勧めします。
とはいえ、酔い止め薬を飲んででも参加する価値のあるツアーだと思います。特にナ・パリ・コースト ツアー初めての方にはお勧めです!
ご乗船いただきありがとうございました。お楽しみいただけたことを知り、とても嬉しいです!またお会いできる日を楽しみにしています... マハロとアロハ。
It was a pleasure to have you aboard, and we are so happy to know how much you enjoyed it! Until we meet again... Mahalo and Aloha

We participated with our family of three and our sixth-grade child.
As a beginner in snorkeling, I was a bit anxious, but I was taught carefully from the basics, and I was able to enjoy snorkeling very much. Swimming close to the fish in Hanauma Bay felt like I had become one of them. Unfortunately, we couldn't see any turtles, but Fumio-san searched hard for them, and I am very grateful for that.
I'm really glad we participated. I plan to join again the next time we go to Hawaii♪
If you're going to snorkel in Hanauma Bay, I absolutely recommend this tour!
小6の子供と家族3人で参加させていただきました。
シュノーケル初心者だったので少し不安でしたが、丁寧に1から教えてもらえて、とっても楽しんでシュノーケルすることができました。
ハナウマベイの魚と間近で泳げて、魚になったみたいでした。
亀は残念ながら見ることが出来ませんでしたが、フミオさんが一生懸命探してくれて、とっても感謝してます。
ほんとに参加してよかったです。
次回ハワイに行った時も、また参加させてもらおうと思います♪
ハナウマベイでシュノーケルするなら、絶対にオススメのツアーです(*´∀`)♪

The sunset on the distant horizon viewed from the boat. Manta rays swimming right in front of me, gliding past my body multiple times. A kind guide and the boat captain. According to the guide, there were an unusually high number of manta rays this time. It was a wonderful experience.
ボートから眺める遥かな水平線上の夕日。体をかすめるように何度も目の前を泳ぐマンタ。やさしいガイドさんとボートの船長。ガイドさんの話によれば、今回は、滅多にないほどマンタが多かったとのこと。素晴らしい体験でした。
ALOHA! Mr. Enjoying Hawaii Island,
Thank you for participating in Manta University. The sunset viewed from the boat is exceptional! It seems you were able to encounter many mantas as well! We are delighted that you enjoyed your time as your name suggests.
Please join us again when you come back to Hawaii. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.
MAHALO!

There are a lot of people, and the short snorkeling experience is not well organized. The snorkeling tour in Okinawa was much better.
人は多いし、体育会系の短時間シュノーケル、段取りも決してよくは無い、沖縄でのシュノーケルツアーの方がよっぽど良かったです。
