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＞

It was pure mystery! I experienced something breathtaking! 神秘そのもの！息をのむ。を体感しました！

Reviewed by: KAZUKI

The day before and on the day itself, unfortunately, there was light rain. I assumed a Japanese person would come to pick me up, but it was someone else, so I didn't realize at first, haha. I figured it out because the back of the T-shirt had "Manta University" written on it. For those who will be using this service, please keep that in mind! Haha.

After doing a lot of searching and research, I decided to go with Manta University based on reviews and prior reputation, and it was definitely the right choice. I had an amazing experience!

It seems that Manta University is highly rated by other tour companies as well, as everyone I spoke to said, "That place is great!" when I mentioned their name. The website was a bit hard to navigate (it really is quite confusing), and I chose them because a Japanese person said there would be a restroom, but there wasn't one. They were complaining during the briefing before boarding the boat, but I wish they had done their homework. Since half of the participants were foreigners, I felt a bit embarrassed as a fellow Japanese person.

Just a heads up, the boat for the manta tour on the Big Island does not have a restroom! Haha. Please keep that in mind!

Before departure, they provide explanations and help you put on the wetsuits. You need to specify your size when booking, but they will lend you a properly fitting size on-site, so those who are worried can feel at ease.

The boat ride to and from the site is quite bumpy and you will get wet. It’s cold, but that’s to be expected when you’re speeding across the ocean! Haha. This was my third tour, and although I could only chat a little, I was used to talking with foreigners, so I had a great time throughout. There was a lovely elderly couple from America; the man was very kind to his wife, and I thought, "I want to be like that couple."

My wife can't swim and this was her first time in the ocean, so I was honestly a bit worried, but our guide, Toriama (Tori-chan), was very kind and attentive, so she was able to snorkel in the night sea with me until the end!

The manta rays were just amazing! I was so happy to see them! From the moment they appeared right in front of me to their graceful gliding, everything was incredible!! I felt like I came just to see the mantas, so it was the best experience ever!!

We talked about wanting to go see dolphins next! Manta University comes highly recommended.

P.S. Mantas appear to feed on plankton that gather around lights, and I saw other tour companies claiming their lights are stronger than others, but when I asked a knowledgeable friend in the marine world, it seems that doesn’t really matter, haha. Since we’re dealing with nature, there will be times when you can’t see them, and other times when many come. During my tour, three mantas showed up.

When choosing a tour company, I recommend considering whether they have Japanese guides, the level of care they provide, and the details of their services. Please avoid getting distracted by unclear services and the desire to have a better experience than others!

The Big Island is the best! I will definitely come back!

前日、当日は生憎の小雨模様でした。
日本人の方が迎えに来てくれると思い込んでいましたが、違ったので最初わかりませんでした笑
Tシャツの背中側の上にマンタ大学と書いてあったのでわかりました。
利用される方は参考にしてくださいね！笑

色々探したり調べて、口コミや前評判からマンタ大学さんにお願いしましたが、間違いありませんでしたよ。
最高な体験ができました！

マンタ大学さんは、他のツアー会社にも評価は高いようで、名前を出したら、あそこはいいですよ！と、どのツアーの方も仰っていました。
ホームページが見ずらかったのか(たしかにわかりづらいですよね)、日本の方がトイレ付きだから選んだのに。ないんなら他を選んでいた。と、船に乗る前の説明で文句を言っていましたが、ちゃんと下調べはして欲しいものです。海外の方が半数だったので、同じ日本人として、少し恥ずかしかったですね。

ハワイ島のマンタツアーの船にトイレはありませんよー！笑
参考にしてくださいね！笑

出発前に説明とウェットスーツの着用をしてくれます。申し込み時にサイズを言わなければいけませんが、現地にて自分にちゃんと合ったサイズのものを貸してくれるので、不安な方は安心してくださいね。

行き帰りの船はかなり揺れます。そして濡れます。
寒いです。そりゃ海の上を突っ走りますから、まぁ当然ですよね！笑
この時はもうツアー3回目で触り程度しか話せない2人ですが、海外の方とのおしゃべりも慣れていたので終始楽しかったです。
アメリカ出身の老夫婦が素敵でした。男性が奥さんにとても優しくあんな夫婦になりたいと思いました。

私の妻は泳げない&海も人生初。で、正直不安でしたがガイドのトリヤマさん(トリちゃん)が優しく、またちゃんと気にしてくれていたので、夜の海でのシュノも最後まで一緒にすることができました！

マンタは、もう最高でした！会えて幸せでした♫
目の前に、ヌーーッと現れるところから、ヒラリヒラリと舞う姿も、全てがヤバかったです！！
私はマンタに会いに来たようなモノだったので最高な体験ができました！！

次はイルカに通いたいと夫婦で話しましたよ♫
マンタ大学さんはオススメです。

追記
光に集まるプランクトンを食いにマンタが現れるのですが、他のツアー会社の説明に他者よりライトの光が強い！等を見かけましたが、ちゃんとした海の友人に聞いたところ、関係ないようです笑
自然世界を相手にしているので、見れない時もあるでしょう。また、たくさん来てくれる時もあるでしょう。私の時は、3枚のマンタちゃんが来てくれました。
ツアー会社を選ぶ際には、日本人ガイドがいるか。
ケアはどうか。サービス内容は。等で選考するのをオススメします。よくわからないサービスに目を奪われて、他人よりいい思いをしようという思いにかられない様にして選んでくださいね！

ハワイ島最高ー♫
また来ます、必ず！

After practicing snorkeling at the sandbar, playing beach volleyball, and enjoying a delicious lunch, we searched for sea turtles from the boat. Snorkeling in the vast coral reef was enjoyable even for someone like me who isn't a strong swimmer! Also, the guide (a young woman) had an incredible way of taking photos!

I encountered a manta ray! マンタに出会えた！

Reviewed by: HWi

I participated in the Manta University Night Dive.

The guide was Tori. She was a very considerate and great guide.

We boarded a boat and headed out to the Sheraton off Kailua-Kona. The boat was going at an amazing speed, and it felt great. During sunset, the boat was stopped in a position that made it easy to take pictures.

At the manta viewing point, we just floated while holding onto the SUP boards! At first, no mantas came, but gradually many appeared, swimming right in front of us. I was moved by the mantas swimming and rotating just inches from my nose.

Reluctantly, we headed back after about 30 minutes.

On the way back, the lights of Kailua-Kona were beautiful. I would love to participate again to meet the amazing mantas with the attentive guide. Thank you!

マンタを見るポイントではSUPのボードに捕まって浮いてるだけ！最初はマンタ来なかったですが、だんだんたくさん来て、正に目の前を回遊してくれました。
鼻先すれすれを回転しながら泳ぐマンタに感動。

I was nervous, but it was the best. 緊張したけど、最高

Reviewed by: かーこ

I chose this tour because it mentioned that there would be a restroom on the boat, but I was shocked to find out there was none. In the end, it turned out I didn't need it, but if there wasn't one, it would have been the same as the others. Everything else was fantastic. At first, I thought the manta rays wouldn't come, and I was about to give up, but they showed up in the second half. Our tour guide, Tori, was very encouraging to us as it was our first time snorkeling, and we had a great time. The night sea was a bit scary, but if you're going to Hawaii Island, I definitely recommend this tour.

予約する時、船にトイレがあるとなっていたので、こちらを選んだのですが、参加してみたら船にはトイレがなくショック
結果的には行かなくて大丈夫でしたが、ないなら他と同じだったな・・と
それ以外は最高でした
最初はマンタが来なくて、駄目かなと諦めてたら後半は来てくれました
ツアーガイドのトリちゃんが初めてのシュノーケルだった私たちに色々声を掛けてくれて、とても楽しかったです
夜の海はちょっと怖かったけど、ハワイ島へ行くなら絶対おすすめです

西オアフで体験するパワースポット&シュノーケリングツアー＜日本語ガイド兼インストラクター／送迎付き＞

I learned various things about Hawaii. ハワイの色々な事を勉強させてもらいました。

Reviewed by: マイクパパ

The guide was very eager to learn and had extensive knowledge about Hawaii. She entertained us by teaching us about Hawaii's birds, fish, flowers, and state flag through quizzes, explaining their reasons and origins. She also provided detailed information about Hawaii's unique climate, lifestyle, customs, and the flowers and seeds of its plants. Regarding the western tourist spots, she humorously shared local legends and stories while guiding us.

As for the snorkeling, she not only showed us fish, coral, and turtles but also discovered dolphins a bit offshore and helped two of our companions, who weren't strong swimmers, by pulling them along on a float. It must have been quite physically demanding for her. She kindly listened to our whims.

Additionally, on that day, we were fortunate enough to encounter a parade for a world champion in martial arts (a fighter from western Hawaii) and even met a wild peacock, which suggests that our guide had a special touch. She had lived in various places around the world and had experience in different jobs, sharing her rich knowledge about the lifestyles, climates, and customs of those countries.

Finally, regarding her personality, I felt she was a kind Hawaiian born in Japan. If I have the opportunity to visit Hawaii again, I would definitely ask her to be my guide.

ガイドの方は、大変勉強熱心らしく、ハワイについての知識が豊富。私たちを楽しませてくれようと、ハワイの鳥、魚、花、州旗などなどその理由、成り立ちについて、クイズ形式で教えてくれました。また、ハワイ特有の気候、生活、風習、植物の花や種についても、詳しく教えてくれました。西部の観光スポットについては、実際にガイドをしながら、現地に伝わる伝説、伝承を交えユーモラスに語ってくれました。肝心のシュノーケリングですが、魚、サンゴ、亀などを見せてくれたのは勿論のこと、ちょっと沖の方にイルカを発見し、泳ぎが得意でない同行者二人をフロートにつかまらせて引っ張って連れて行ってくれました。体力的にもかなりハードであったと思われます。わがままな我々の言うことを優しく受け止めてくれてもいました。更に、当日は何とハッピーなことに格闘技世界チャンピオン(ハワイ西部出身の選手)の凱旋パレードにも出くわしたり、野生のクジャクに出会ったりと、ガイドの彼女は何か持っているに違いありません。ガイドの彼女は世界各地に実際に生活し様々な仕事に携わった経験があり、その国々の生活や気候、風習などについても経験豊富な知識を元に話してくれました。最後に、彼女の性格ですが、私の感じたところ優しい日本生まれのハワイ人という感じでした。又、ハワイに来る機会があれば彼女にガイドを頼もうと思います。

The sea level was higher than I expected... 海水面が思ったより高かった…

Reviewed by: ミコミコ

I found information that the tide would be at 0.5 feet around the time of arrival, but in reality, the water level was quite high, making it difficult with children. The tour had a fixed departure time, but I thought it would be great if there were options set for the sandbar that allowed for walking on the beach. I understand that it's nature, so guarantees can't be made...

The tour guide and the bus driver were all very nice, and they provided a pleasant experience from departure to disbanding. The staff on the boat were also very kind to the children, so I was extremely satisfied with the staff overall.

潮の満ちひきを調べたら到着時間頃は0.5フィートという情報があったのですが、実際は越下くらいまでと水面が高くて子連れではなかなか大変でした。出発時間が固定されているツアーでしたが、サンドバーを「砂浜として歩ける」時間で設定したものがあれば価値があがるのになと思いました。自然のことなので確約はできないんでしょうけど。。。
ツアーのガイドさんやバスの運転手さんはみないい人で出発から解散まで気持ちよく対応いただきました。船上スタッフさんも子供たちにとても優しくして下さったので、スタッフさんに関しては大大大満足感です。

Niche tours マニアック系ツアー

Reviewed by: 白メガネ＆黒肌

I recently visited Hawaii after a long time, and since it was my friend's first trip to Hawaii, I was in charge of planning the itinerary. After debating between a "local guide" and a "niche tour," I decided on this tour.

First, I was surprised that our guide was a woman! Since it was advertised as "West Oahu where no one goes," I was curious about what kind of local guy would show up, but…

There were really no Japanese people at the beach! I felt like this was exactly the kind of tour I was looking for, and my excitement was through the roof. The supermarket was filled with locals, and I loved the feeling of being in an unfamiliar place.

The caves were also getting crowded with tourists shortly after us, so I thought the timing was perfect. The content included explanations of old legends and myths, and the guide took plenty of photos for us, providing thoughtful assistance throughout. She was knowledgeable about animals and plants, and I never got bored listening to her.

We encountered a pod of dolphins around Yokohama Bay, which got everyone excited.

During snorkeling, we saw not only sea turtles but also sharks. When someone shouted "Shark!" and I turned around, there was a shark about a meter long, and I had the incredibly rare experience of swimming alongside it. I was told it was not aggressive, but it was a bit thrilling.

While it wasn't just a random assortment of fish, we did see colorful fish and schools, which was great.

However, the temperature difference in the water made me feel cold before the turnaround point, and I started to feel seasick. The stops for explanations were the worst for my nausea. I apologize for not being able to hear much during the second half as I was battling my discomfort.

If you're sensitive to the cold, it might be a good idea to wear a rash guard during certain times.

But it would have been better if I hadn't gotten seasick… Even if you can't swim and use a float, you still feel the waves while holding onto it… (laughs) It was fine while I was biting down on the snorkel, but the moment I took it out and tasted the seawater, I felt like I was going to gag (though I didn't throw up).

For lunch, it might be better to keep it light or eat something that can be eaten with your hands in the car on the way back (like bread). I bought a poke bowl for lunch, and they kept anything that needed refrigeration cool, so I felt safe purchasing it!

On the way back to Waikiki, I fell into a deep sleep, and by the time I woke up, I had recovered from my seasickness and was ready to enjoy the evening activities.

私は久々のハワイで、初ハワイの彼に行程を任されまして、｢現地人ガイド｣か｢マニアック系｣で悩んだ結果、こちらのツアーに決定しました。
まず、ガイドさんが女性なのに驚き！"誰も行かない西オアフ"ってマニアックな事を謳うくらいなのでどんな地元に根付いた兄ちゃんが出てくるのかと思ったら…！

海も本当に日本人いない！こういうツアーを求めてた！！！って感じでテンションはあがりまくり…
スーパーもローカルしかいない所でこのアウェー感がたまらん！状態。
洞窟も私たちのちょい後には外人さんでいっぱいになっていて、時間のチョイスも絶妙だと思いました。
内容も昔ながらの伝説や神話を交えて解説、写真もバシバシ撮って下さるし細やかな対応で助かりました。
動物や植物にも詳しく、聞いていて飽きなかったです。
ヨコハマベイ周辺ではイルカの群れに遭遇で一同盛り上がりました。

シュノーケリングではウミガメだけでなく、サメにも遭遇しました。
サメだ！の声に振り返ると1mくらいのサメがいて、一緒に泳ぐという貴重すぎる体験が出来ました。人を襲わないヤツと言う事でしたが、ちょっとスリルがありましたね。

手当たり次第魚がいると言う感じではなかったですが、カラフルな魚や群れも見られて良かったです。

ただ…割と水の寒暖差でUターンポイント前には体が冷え切り、波には酔う始末。
説明の為に停滞するのが酔いの命取り状態でした^^;;
後半は自分との戦いでほぼ説明が聞き取れずですいませんでした。

寒さを感じやすい方はラッシュガード上下あると良い時期があるかもしれませんね。

しかし、波に酔わなければより良かったです…
泳げなくてNG！なら浮き輪で戻れても…酔いは浮き輪に捕まっていても揺れますしね…(笑
シュノーケルを奥歯でギューっとしている間は良かったのですが、外して海水の味が口に回った瞬間オエっとなりました(吐かなかったけど。
ランチは控えめか、帰りの車の中で失礼した方が良いかもしれません。(パンとか手で食べられるもの)
ランチはポキボウルを買いましたが冷蔵が必要なものは冷やしておいて下さるので安心して購入出来ました！

ワイキキに戻る間にぐっすりいっちゃったので、起きた時には酔いからも回復していて夕方からの遊びもがんばれました。

I was deeply moved by the power of the manta rays! マンタの迫力に大感動です！

Reviewed by: LEO

The magnificent sunset seen from the sea and the flying fish skimming the surface build excitement as we ride a thrilling boat, reminiscent of being on a banana boat.

Wearing a wetsuit, fins, and goggles, I floated while holding onto the raft's rope. A three-meter manta ray approached the raft, showing its patterned belly and opening its large mouth, spinning close to us multiple times. The sheer power of the experience left me completely overwhelmed and deeply moved. It was truly a precious and emotional experience.

ポイントにつくまでに見られる海上からの雄大なサンセットと海面を飛び続けるトビウオ、バナナボートに乗っているかのようなスリル満点の船で期待感が高まります。
ウェットスーツ、足ひれ、ゴーグルをつけ筏のロープに腕を伸ばした状態でつかまり浮いていると筏のブルーライトに寄ってくるプランクトンめがけて3メートル大のマンタが斑模様のおなかを見せながら大きな口を開けて私たちスレスレに何度も回転する様子には、あまりの迫力にただただ圧倒され感動するばかりでした。本当に貴重な感動体験ができました。

Reviewed by: ALOHA!

For our honeymoon, we went to Hawaii for the first time, and since it was a special occasion, I wanted to swim with dolphins to fulfill a long-held dream! So, I quickly enrolled in Dolphin School.

As we boarded the boat and chatted happily with my husband and Julie, we headed to the spot where the dolphins would appear, and to my amazement, there were already a stunning number of dolphins near the boat! Encountering them in the wild, with no guarantee they would show up, was truly moving. I was so happy, thanking the dolphin instructors—it was a fleeting yet wonderful experience.

After a break, we were taken to a snorkeling spot for another dive. We saw plenty of sea turtles and many fish! And above all, the view of the mountains surrounding the ocean was breathtaking! Swimming under the blue sky amidst such beautiful scenery is an experience I think is hard to come by.

On the boat, we sang and danced, soaking in the cheerful Hawaiian atmosphere, and I found myself laughing the whole time. I thought it would be great to enroll in Manta University as well! In the end, I even received a graduation certificate (laughs). Listening to Julie made me think about wanting to enjoy the work I want to do in the place I want to live!

新婚旅行で初めてのハワイ、
せっかくならイルカと泳いでみたい！と昔からの夢を叶える為に
早速イルカ中学に入学しました♪
船に乗ってパパさんやジュリさんや一緒に乗った方たちと楽しく話しながらイルカが出てくるスポットまで行くと、もう目を疑う程の数のイルカ達がすでに船の近くに来ていました♡♡

The weather was nice, and we were able to see a lot of turtles. While playing at the sandbar, a turtle swam by within about a meter of us, which was really lucky. Since we had a 5-year-old with us, we didn't go snorkeling and instead played in the shallow water. The captain and other staff members played with the kids and lent us stand-up paddleboards, floaties, and bodyboards, which made both the kids and adults very satisfied.

天候も良く、カメさんをたくさん見ることができました。
サンドバーで遊んでいると距離にして1メートルもないくらいをカメさんがスイスイ泳いでいて本当にラッキーでした。

It was a bit chilly, and the sea wasn't as shallow as I imagined, but I was able to have a great time playing in the shallow waters.

Instead of eating in the water, I had a hamburger inside the moving boat due to the strong winds. Additionally, the care and hospitality of the local staff were very impressive. The hot cocoa service after coming out of the sea and the guitar performance were excellent services.

I was able to see sea turtles properly, and feeding the fish allowed me to see them up close, which was interesting.

If the sea had been a bit warmer and there was no wind, it would have been a five-star experience!

やや寒い時期で海もそんなに浅くはなかったので、想像と違う部分がありましたが、

Reviewed by: ばななまん

I wanted to go to Hanauma Bay with a different tour company than last time, but it seems that the two plans listed on Veltra are from the same tour company. There is no difference in the guide's content between the two plans (only differences in the included fees). I'm disappointed that the plan names are different but it's the same tour company.
The guide was friendly, but I wonder if it's just me who feels a bit frustrated by how Americanized it is...
There was someone who got seasick. Those who can't swim might feel scared as the waves can pull you in. It requires stamina since you'll be swimming for about an hour.

前回と違ったツアー会社でハナウマ湾に行きたかったのですが、ベルトラに掲載されている２つのプランは同じツアー会社のようです。２プランともガイド内容に差はありません(含まれる料金の違い)。プラン名が違うのに同じツアー会社でがっかり。。
ガイドの方は気さくな感じですが、アメリカナイズされすぎていて少しイライラしてしまうのは私だけなのか…。
波酔いしている方がいました。泳げない人は波に体をもっていかれて恐怖感を感じるかも？ １時間ほど泳ぐので体力いります。

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Molokini and turtle town snorkel/ snuba trip

Reviewed by: Irina

Everything was great. The team was very helpful, friendly and funny.
We really love Molokini snorkel/snuba site. The turtle town was not that impressive though. We expected to see lots of turtles, but saw only one.

サンドバー　キャプテンブルース　天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ　SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも！＜午前・午後／日本語クルー＞

Afternoon Sandbar 午後のサンドバー

Reviewed by: タケチャ

Almost all participants were Japanese. The guide was also Japanese and very friendly, which was great. They offered GoPro rentals, and if you have a camera, they will take pictures for you. Since it was our honeymoon, having someone take photos of the two of us was appreciated. However, it's natural that those who borrowed a GoPro were prioritized for photos. We didn't rent one, but they still approached us to take pictures.

I recommend checking the sandbar's appearance based on the tide and time. By the way, I couldn't make a reservation for the morning of the day when the sea level drops below zero a week in advance.

参加者はほぼ全員日本人でした。ガイドさんも日本人で気さくだった為良かったです。
ゴープロの貸し出しもありましたし、カメラを持ってれば写真を撮ってくれます、新婚旅行なので誰がが撮ってくれる2人の写真はありがたいです。ただ、当然ですがゴープロを借りた人の方が優遇して撮ってくれます。自分たちは借りてませんが普通に声を掛けてくれます。
サンドバーは、潮位と時間で姿が違う為調べる事をオススメします。ちなみに、海抜0を割る日の午前は1週間前で予約が取れませんでした。

カイルアビーチ送迎シャトルサービス　嬉しい5時間滞在！ビーチグッズなど各種レンタル付き＜日本語スタッフ／ランチ付＞

It was a tour that was安心 for families with children.⭐ 子連れでも安心のツアーでした⭐

Reviewed by: さくま

I participated in this trip because I wanted to take my 5-year-old daughter to Kailua, where we went for our honeymoon! I was nervous until the pickup, but we safely boarded and headed to Kailua. There were changing rooms and lockers for valuables, so it was安心 for families with children. The staff were all friendly and kind. My daughter really warmed up and kept talking to Mieko (is that the right name?). I’m sorry for interrupting your work!

We headed to the beach at 9:30 and were able to relax until 3 PM with a lunch break in between. It was quite windy that day, which made things a bit challenging, but we had a really great time.

Next time, when my daughter can ride a bike, I’d like to go to Kailua Town.

Thank you to all the staff!

以前新婚旅行で行ったカアルアに、5歳の娘を連れて行きたくて参加させていただきました！
ピックアップまではドキドキしていましたが、無事に乗車しカアルアへ。
更衣室も、貴重品用のロッカーもあり、子連れでも安心です。
スタッフのみなさんもフレンドリー&親切でした。娘もすっかり打ち解けてしまい、みえこさん(名前あってます？)にずっと話しかけていました。お仕事のお邪魔してすいませんでした！

９時半にビーチへ向かい、ランチを挟んで３時までのんびり過ごすことができました。
当日はとても風が強くて少し大変でしたが、本当に楽しかったです。

次回は娘が自転車に乗れるようになったら、カイルアタウンに行きたいと思います。

スタッフのみなさま、ありがとうございました！

サンドバー天使の海　シュノーケリング＆ウミガメウォッチクルーズ　船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き！＜午前／日本語クルー＞

If only the weather were nice... 天気さえ良ければ…。

Reviewed by: Ｏ達晴

We participated during our honeymoon. Since neither of us speaks much English, having a Japanese guide was very helpful. Also, it was nice that the local staff spoke clearly, possibly because many Japanese people were participating.

As for the content, we were able to see turtles, beautiful corals, and colorful fish, which made us very satisfied.

However, it was unfortunate that the weather on the day was very cold due to strong winds and rain.

ハネムーン中に参加しました。
２人とも英語がほとんど出来ないので、日本語ガイドが付いているのは、大変助かりました。
また、多くの日本人が参加しているのもあってか、現地スタッフも分かり易く話してくれて良かったです。

内容としては、亀を見ることも出来ましたし、綺麗なサンゴ、色とりどりの魚達を見ることが出来大変満足しました。

ただ、当日の天気が風が強くて、雨も降ったりなど、非常に寒かったのが残念でした。

2.5-Hour Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour, Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

Sail and snorkel

Reviewed by: Greg Jones

We had a great time. They were right on time. The boat was very clean. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the sea life. They knew what the the different fish were that we were seeing, we found some huge Turtles that swam with us. Then we just sailed on the boat for an hour or so. Was a great trip and I highly recommend it. This is not a BOOZE CRUZ. This is well done and professional!!

サンドバー天使の海　シュノーケリング＆ウミガメウォッチクルーズ　船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き！＜午前／日本語クルー＞

With a high-energy tour guide テンション高めな添乗員さんと

Reviewed by: Chie A

I participated in the morning session. I was picked up at the hotel. Most of the participants were honeymoon couples. Upon arriving at the port and heading to the sandbar by boat, we went turtle watching. There were so many sea turtles that I couldn't believe it!

After arriving at the sandbar, we took photos and went snorkeling. The sea was truly beautiful and mesmerizing. However, it was a bit cold since it was in the morning.

Afterward, we enjoyed sandwiches and snacks made by the tour guide on the boat. The light meal after coming out of the water tasted delicious. We arrived back at the hotel around 11:30. I was able to use my time meaningfully!

朝の部に参加しました。ホテルまで迎えにきてもらいました。参加者のほとんどがハネムーンのカップルでした。港に着いて船でサンドバーへ向かう途中、ウミガメウォッチング。こんなにたくさんいるのか！というほどたくさんのウミガメが見えました！
サンドバーに到着し、写真撮影やシュノーケリングをしました。海が本当に綺麗でうっとりしました。
ただ午前だったので少し寒かったです。
その後は船上で添乗員さんの作ってくれたサンドイッチとスナックをいただきました。海からあがったあとの軽食は美味しく感じました。
ホテルに着いたのは１１時半頃。有意義に時間が使えました！

イルカ中学　野生のイルカ＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　高速ボートでイルカ遭遇率アップ！＜少人数制／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可／日本語／ランチ付き＞

Wild dolphins♡ 野生のイルカ♡

Reviewed by: J&Y

I love dolphins and have swum with them in various places, but this was my first time with wild dolphins!!

Unlike the dolphins in captivity, I was nervous about whether I would actually see them in the wild, but the staff worked hard alongside us to find them, and I was able to see many dolphins up close!

Thanks to the dolphin-loving staff, it was truly a fun and happy experience.

イルカ大好きで、いろいろなところでイルカと泳いできましたが、野生のイルカは初めて！！

飼育されているイルカとは違い、野生なので逢えるかドキドキでしたが、スッタフも一緒になって一生懸命さがしてくださり、たくさんのイルカを間近で見られることができました！

イルカ好きのスタッフのみなさんのおかげで、本当に楽しくて幸せな時間でした。

I had a great time. 楽しめました。

Reviewed by: まーちゃん

The sandbar had beautiful weather, and I was able to take stunning photos. The snorkeling was satisfying with plenty of fish. I swam for the entire time, so much so that my legs hurt the next day; I was completely absorbed in it.

サンドバーは、お天気に恵まれ綺麗な写真がとれました。
シュノーケルは、魚が沢山いて満足。
時間いっぱい泳いだので、次の日は足が痛んだほど、夢中になれました。
