All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

The weather wasn't very good, so I was a bit anxious, but it was really beautiful! I was surprised to see turtles swimming nearby!!

天気があまり良くなくて不安だったのですが、とても綺麗でした！
亀が近くを泳いでいたのには驚きました！！

We participated with a total of nine people, from a five-month-old baby to my 64-year-old father and mother. It rained on the way to the sandbar, and when we got off, the water was up to our knees. My father said he would wait on the boat, but we forced him to come along, and in the end, he said he was glad he went! I think it's a good idea to check the tide schedule in advance. The BBQ was delicious, and the kids were very satisfied.

5か月の赤ちゃんから64歳の父、母まで総勢9名で参加しました。
サンドバーまでの船の途中で雨が降り、
降りるときも膝上あたりまであったため、
父は船で待っている、と言っていましたが、
無理やり連れて行き、最後には、行けてよかった！と言っていました。
潮の満ち引きはあらかじめ確認しておいたほうがいいと思います。
BBQもおいしく、子供達も大満足でした。

Beautiful water with dolphins and whales and an excellent staff. I’d do it again. Food was exceptional

The transparent marine blue sea.
However, on this day, the temperature was unthinkably low for Hawaii.
I could only stay in the water for about five minutes because it was so cold.
In front of the camera, I smiled broadly and said "cheese!" without showing how I felt!
I made some great memories.
The BBQ lunch made by a voluptuous woman was delicious!

透きとおるマリンブルーの海。
ただこの日はハワイではありえない程の気温。
寒くて５分くらいしか海に入っていられなかったのだ。
カメラの前ではそれを感じさせない満面の笑顔でハイチーズ！
思い出作りをしてきました。
ボリュウミーな女性が作ってくれたＢＢＱランチは美味しかったよー。

It seems that the sandbar doesn't appear every time! It looks like you can only stand on the beautiful sandy beach during low tide, and that information wasn't provided. Just before arriving at the sandbar, I was told that I could go in up to my knees today! I was looking forward to standing on the sandbar, so it was disappointing.

Also, it mentioned that there would be a BBQ lunch, but it was just hamburgers, beans, and snacks! I was imagining meat and seafood, so I was very disappointed. I felt quite let down by participating in this tour.

サンドバーが毎回現れるわけではないそうです！引き潮じゃないと綺麗な砂浜の上には立てないみたいでその情報が掲載されてなかったような、、
サンドバーに着く直前に今日は膝上までですが入れますとのこと！サンドバーに立てるのを楽しみにして申し込みましたが残念でした。
またBBQランチ付きと買いてありましたがハンバーガーとビーンズとスナックだけでした！お肉、海鮮などを想像してたのにとても残念でした。このツアーに参加してとても残念に感じました。

First of all, it was very reassuring that the tour guide could speak Japanese. Additionally, everyone was very cheerful, bright, and friendly, which made for wonderful memories. Snorkeling was a bit scary at first, but the day we went had excellent water clarity, the weather was great, and I was able to see many beautiful fish and sea turtles, allowing me to forget my fears and enjoy the experience. The staff also spoke to me a lot in Japanese, which made me feel very welcomed. I would love to book this tour again when I come back to Hawaii.

まずはじめに、ツアーの方が日本語ができることがとても心強かったです。
また、皆さんとても陽気で明るく親身に接してくれたのでとても良い思い出となりました。
シュノーケリングは最初怖かったですが、行った日がとても海の透明度が高い日で、天気も良く、たくさんの綺麗な魚やウミガメを見ることができ、怖さを忘れ楽しむことができました。
スタッフの方も日本語でたくさん話しかけてくれたので、とても親しみが持てました。
またハワイに来た際には申し込みたいツアーです。

By far the best snorkel excursion we ever took. Safety was the Captain's first priority and it was greatly appreciated.

The Four Winds offers just about everything possible from small boats for children, life jackets, other floating devices, and under water camera rentals. The crew was awesome.

What to expect? A crew that knows how to have a great time. Don't worry if you forget something because honestly they have everything including wet suits and eco friendly sun screen. On the way to Molokini, we seen a double whale breech which is the best I have seen yet. The captain was very knowledgeable about whales and turtles and was quite funny as he cracked a few jokes along the way. Upon boarding breakfast was served. Later lunch and on the way back a few beers. Great way to end a fabulous day.

I would highly recommend this activity for couples or families. Can't wait to do it again next year.

Originally I was very scared as I don't like to put my head under the water. I signed up just because my grown up daughter wanted to try that. I was a bit out of breath at the beginning as I dived in to the helmet, but soon as I calmed down, it was incredible. I was even able to touch the gorgeous big turtle. But I was able to have this great experience only thanks to my assigned diver, who directed me so well. So thank you ever so much xx

I had seen it on TV before and really wanted to experience it, and finally, it came true this time. The boat left the harbor and after about 30 minutes, we arrived. As the tension increased, I relaxed by talking with the Japanese female guide and some locals. Then, as it got dark, the main event began. The captain called out and everyone went to the sea.

After waiting for a while, I heard a boy next to me shout, "They've come!" Sure enough, when I looked over, there was a manta ray, and I joined in the cheers. The manta rays were dancing around with incredible energy. There’s no other way to describe it; it was amazing. After a few minutes of screaming, everyone got back on the boat, looking satisfied and chatting for a while.

When I asked the guide, she said it was the best experience she had had recently. Even now, I can vividly recall that wonderful sight. I am grateful to all the staff for this amazing experience.

前にテレビの映像で観てぜひ体験したいと思っていましたがやっと今回実現にいたりました。船は港を出て30分ほど走って到着。緊張感が増す中、日本人女性ガイドや近隣の方と色々話してリラックス。そんな中いよいよ暗くなって本番?キャプテンが声を上げみんな海へ。
しばらく待ってると隣の少年が来た〜って声を。
確かにそちらを見るとマンタが〜って私も歓声を。凄い勢いでマンタの乱舞。
これは凄いとしか言いようがない。絶叫の数十分後みんな船に上がり満足そうにしばらく 談笑。
ガイドに聞いたらつい最近で最高ですなんて。いま思い出しても素晴らしい光景が目に浮かびます。この素晴らしい体験にスタッフの皆さんに感謝です。

I participated with my father (in his 60s). Since both of us grew up by the sea, we had no worries about swimming, but we were a bit nervous since it was our first time. The woman in charge was absolutely wonderful, and during the bus ride, we had a homeroom session where the participants (we were referred to as such) were laughing the whole time and felt relaxed. On the day of participation, we were told that due to high waves, it might be hard to spot dolphins right away, but as soon as we boarded the boat, we were able to see dolphins and sea turtles! After that, we dove into the sea and were moved to see dolphins swimming right below us... (they were quite far away, though, haha). We couldn't see them up close, but we were able to confirm a significant number of dolphins.

There were participants who suffered from seasickness throughout the trip, so I wouldn't recommend it for those who are prone to seasickness or can't swim (once you dive into the sea, the boat leaves, so if you want to return, you can't. We swam as a group for about 20 minutes, which could be quite tough for those who aren't confident). However, for those who have no issues with seasickness or swimming, I wholeheartedly recommend it! You can experience a feeling of being one with nature!

私と父(60代)で参加しました。二人とも海街育ちなので泳ぎには全く不安は無かったのですが、初めての参加のためドキドキでした。担当の女性の方がとっっても素敵な方で、バスの中でホームルームをするのですが終始生徒(参加者はこう呼ばれます)は笑いっぱなしでリラックス出来ました。参加日は波が高い為すぐに見つかるか分からないとの事でしたが、船に乗り込んですぐにイルカ・海亀を見る事が出来ました！その後海にダイブし泳ぎながら自分たちの真下を泳ぐイルカに感動…(距離はかなり遠いですが笑)間近で見ることが叶いませんでしたがかなりの数のイルカを確認できました。

船酔いで終始苦しんでおられる参加者の方もいましたので、船酔いする方や泳げない方(海に一度潜ると船は離れますので戻りたくてももどれません。20分くらい団体で泳ぐので得意じゃない方はかなら辛そうでした)にはおすすめしませんが、船酔いにも泳ぎにも問題ない方には全力でおすすめです！自然と一体化した気分が味わえますよう！

I participated with my mother on January 5th. It was our first time, and my mother, who is 65 years old and had a past experience of almost drowning in the ocean, was quite anxious at the start.

However, thanks to Dan and Chieko's assistance, we were able to enjoy the experience until the end and see beautiful fish and turtles.

I apologize to the other participants for monopolizing Chieko, but both my mother and I were very satisfied!

My mother, who experienced snorkeling for the first time at 65, gained confidence from it and says every day that she wants to go again soon, haha.

This is an activity that both beginners and experienced individuals can enjoy. While you can visit Hanauma Bay on your own, Dan and Chieko know the best spots, so if you're going, I highly recommend this option.

You can also obtain photos for free from Facebook, making it a nice keepsake.

Dan and Chieko, I look forward to our next time!

1/5に母と二人で参加しました。二人とも初めてで、65歳になる母は昔海で溺れたこともあり、不安いっぱいでのスタートでした。

でも、DanさんとChiekoさんの手助けのおかげで最後まで楽しむことができ、綺麗なお魚や亀を見ることができました。

Chiekoさんを独り占めしてしまい、一緒に参加した他の方には申し訳ありませんでしたが、母も私も大満足でした！

65歳にもなって初めてシュノーケリング体験した母は、自信にも繋がり、早くまた行きたいと毎日言っております笑

初めての方も経験者の方も楽しめるアクティビティです。ハナウマベイは個人でも行けますが、ベテランのお二人だからこそ見どころスポットを熟知されてますので、せっかく行かれるのでしたらこちらがおススメです。

お写真もFacebookから無料で入手できるので、記念にもなります。

Danさん、Chiekoさん、次回も宜しくお願いしますね！

Kudos to Hunter and Sophie for making this an amazing experience.

I prepared myself for the coldness of the sea in January, but the weather was surprisingly perfect and even a bit hot. The pickup was on time, and the staff were all very good! Justin's guidance was excellent. The female staff member, Crystal, was beautiful and captivating. Captain Alan was also very kind! I'm glad I chose this tour. The lunch with the bone-in short ribs was delicious! There was plenty of free time, and you can rent beach gear, so you can fully enjoy the emerald-clear sea. I want to go again during low tide. Definitely planning to return!

1月で海の冷たさ寒さを覚悟して挑みましたが、なんとサイコーの天気で暑いくらいでした。
ピックアップも時間通りでスタッフさんたちもとても良かったです！
ジャスティンのガイドはサイコーでした。
女性スタッフクリスタルもキレイで見とれるほど。キャプテンのアランもとても親切でしたよ！このツアーを選んで良かったです。
ランチの骨付きカルビおいしかったです！
自由時間も長く、ビーチグッズもレンタルできるので、エメラルドな透き通った海を十分堪能できます。今度は干潮の時間に行って見たいです。リピ決定！

It had been since elementary school since I last entered the sea. Not even sure if I could swim, I bought a swimsuit and participated anyway. Before getting on the boat, I took motion sickness medication, applied sunscreen, and set sail with some anxiety.

However, the beautiful sea and sky that unfolded before me quickly blew away my worries.

Fortunately, I encountered dolphins at a reef where they only play when they're in a good mood. It was a wonderful experience. It was truly a playful interaction with the dolphins. They didn't just swim past me; I was surrounded by dozens of dolphins from all sides, even at my feet—it felt like a dream.

I dove three times. Even in the deep sea, I felt no fear when jumping in. I was surprisingly filled with excitement and anticipation.

I was also drawn to the personality of our guide, realizing that there are people who can live such wonderful lives. It made me reflect on the importance of being mindful of everything I choose to engage with. I expressed to my husband, who joined me, that I want to avoid things that harm nature or animals as much as possible. I decided to study nature more and see it up close.

Ah, if only I could swim better…! I definitely want to come back someday.

海に入るのは小学生ぶり。自分が泳げるかどうかも分からない状態で、取り敢えず水着だけ買って参加しました。
ボートに乗る前に、酔い止めを飲み、日焼け止めを塗り、不安を抱えながらも出港。
目の前に広がった美しい海と空に、不安は一気に吹き飛びました。

運良く、イルカさんがご機嫌な時しか遊ばないというリーフでイルカさんに遭遇。
素晴らしい体験をしてきました。
言葉通りイルカさんとの戯れ。群れが自分の周りを通り過ぎるなんてものではなかったです。
前後左右、足元にも数十頭のイルカさんに囲まれて、夢のようでした。
ダイブは3回。深い海でも、飛び込む際の怖さは一切なかったです。自分でもびっくりするくらいワクワクドキドキしかなかった。

ガイドさんの人間性にも惹かれ、こんなにステキな生き方ができる人もいるのだなぁと。
もっと、自分の手に取るもの一つ一つに意思を持たなくてはならないと考えさせられました。
自然を侵すものや、どうぶつへ痛みを与えるもの、なるべく避けて暮らしていきたいなと、まずは自然のことをもっと勉強してみよう、もっと間近に見に行ってみよう、と一緒に参加した主人と話をしました。

ああ、それにしてももっと、泳げたらなぁ…！
いつかまた、かならず戻ってきたいです。

After swimming with dolphins in the Ogasawara Islands, I became captivated by them and applied for the experience. First, I tend to get seasick, so I intended to take motion sickness medication but forgot, and we set sail as is. As expected, I got seasick. I didn't reach the point of vomiting, but on the way back, I felt nauseous and couldn't eat. So, I recommend that anyone who is prone to seasickness definitely take motion sickness medication.

Now, onto the main event with the dolphins. It seems I was lucky that day, as we quickly encountered a pod of about a dozen dolphins. As soon as we jumped into the water, we were able to swim with the dolphins right away. They swam around us repeatedly, so we got to swim with them many times. They were really cute.

After that, we went snorkeling. Here too, as soon as we got into the water, we encountered two sea turtles. It was really exciting to see a large sea turtle swimming so comfortably.

After that, in January, the sun went down, and it got really cold. I recommend bringing warm clothing. The local staff were entertaining and made sure everyone had a good time, so overall, I was very satisfied.

小笠原でドルフィンスイムをしてからイルカに虜になり、応募しました。
まず私は酔いやすかったので、酔い止めを飲もうとしてたのですが忘れてしまい、そのまま出航。案の定酔ってしまいました。吐くまでは行きませんが、帰りの船は気持ち悪くご飯食べるところではありませんでした。なので酔いやすい方は必ず酔い止めを飲んだ方がいいとおもいます。
そして本番のドルフィン。
当日は運が良かったみたいで、すぐに十数頭いる群れに出会えました。
海にとびんこんでからすぐにイルカと泳げました。ずっと私たちの周りをくるくると泳いでくれてたみたいなので、何度も何度もイルカと泳げました。キッキいってほんとに可愛かったです。
そのあと、シュノーケル。
ここでも海に降りてすぐ、2匹のウミガメに出会えました。大きなウミガメが気持ちよさそうに泳いでてほんと嬉しかったです。
そのあとは1月で太陽が隠れてしまいすごく寒かったです。防寒のものを持参することをお勧めします。
現地スタッフのかたは面白くて皆さんを楽しませてくれ、全体的に満足です。

Our entire group, including a friend with cebral palsy, had an incredible time! The crew taught us what we needed to know & provided us with everything we needed to have a great time except towels. They knew just where to go for us to see sea turtles!!!! We also saw several schools of colorful fish. We even had an impromptu boat party with music, snacks, drinks, pirate & viking hat! It was one of the best parts of our Hawaiian vacation! Worth every penny! If we come back to Hawaii, they will definitely be apart of our vacation plans!! Thank you Holokai crew

This was easily the highlight of our trip. Trevor and the staff were very friendly and accommodating, and they got us into a pod of 200+ dolphins. We left with amazing photos and an amazing experience. We will definitely be back next time we're on the island. Don't hesitate to book this trip!

I wanted to swim with dolphins, so I enrolled in Dolphin University. While riding the bus to the port, the staff shared various stories, making the journey enjoyable. On the boat heading to where the dolphins were, I was thrilled to also see whales! I was so happy to get off the boat twice and see a large group of dolphins up close. I also got to see sea turtles and fish, which was fun. Although I found the SUP, slide, and canoeing a bit lacking since we could only do them for a short time, I had a great time overall. If I get the chance to come back to Waikiki, I will enroll in Dolphin University again! For those who are prone to seasickness, I recommend taking motion sickness medication.

イルカと一緒に泳ぎたくて、イルカ大学に入学しました。バスに乗って、港までの間もスタッフが色んなお話をしてくれて楽しく過ごせました。船に乗ってイルカのいるところまで向かう間に、クジラも見えて感動しました！二度船から降り、イルカの大群をたくさん間近で見れて嬉しかったです。また海ガメも間近で見れたり、魚も見れて楽しかったです。SUPや滑り台やカヌーはおまけで少し出来るくらいで物足りなかったですが、すごく楽しかったです。またワイキキに来れたら、イルカ大学に入学します！！
船酔いする方が沢山いたので、心配な方は必ず酔い止めを飲むべきです。

Absolutely amazing time! The crew of the Holokai was great! They provided everything needed for our snorkeling adventure, they knew just where to go to see wondrous underwater life, and everyone aboard saw sea turtles as well as several different schools of colorful fish!!! They knew just where to go! Such a great value for our money! Sun, music, snacks, sails, water, and beverages. Woohoo! If you must pick one activity while in Hawaii, this is it! You will not be disappointed

I couldn't meet the dolphins this time, but the staff at Dolphin School were all very nice, so I still had a great time.

Since it's a natural experience, I think there are times when you won't see them! Still, it was wonderful to connect with the vast nature of Hawaii.

By the way, I did get to see the turtles and whales!!

Even in midsummer, it gets cold once you're out of the water, so it's better to bring a long-sleeve shirt.

今回イルカには会えなかったけど、イルカ中学のスタッフさんが
とても良い方ばかりだったのでそれでも楽しかったです

自然での体験なので会えないことあると思います！
それでもハワイの大きな自然に触れられて、よかったです。

ちなみに亀さんとクジラには会えました！！

真夏でも海から出たら、寒いので長袖を持って行った方が良いです。

I was a bit anxious about snorkeling for the first time since I'm not a strong swimmer, but Chieko and Dan kindly and patiently taught me, allowing me to enjoy observing the underwater world. I got to see sea turtles and a lot of fish, and the weather was great, making it truly the best experience. I participated alone, but I had a wonderful time, and on the way back, they recommended some great places to eat, which was very helpful. Thank you so much! I will definitely join again!

初めてのシュノーケリングで、あまり泳ぎが得意ではないので不安だったのですが、チエコさんとダンさんに優しく丁寧に教えていただいて、海中観察を楽しむことができました。ウミガメも見られて、お魚もいっぱいみられて、天気も良くて、本当に最高の体験をさせていただきました。１人で参加しましたが、楽しく過ごせて、帰りの車の中でオススメのお店も教えてもらい、参考になりました。本当にありがとうございました。また参加します！

When my family was listing the highlights of our amazing vacation in Hawaii, we all agreed the snorkeling trip was the best of the best. Thank you.

I couldn't see any dolphins, but I had a great time swimming in the beautiful sea and playing on the board! I had heard it was the wrong season to see whales, but I was happy to see two of them.

I experienced severe seasickness, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication before going! Also, everyone was renting wetsuits, so I think it's a good idea to rent one as well.

I'm glad I made some wonderful memories!

イルカには会えなかったけど、綺麗な海で泳いだりボードに乗って遊んだり楽しかったです！
クジラは見れない時期と聞いていたのに、2匹も見ることができて嬉しかったです。

船酔いが凄かったので、酔い止めを飲んで行くのをお勧めします！
あと、ウェットスーツも皆さん借りられていたので借りた方がいいと思います。

いい思い出ができて良かったです！

Even though it's always summer in Hawaii, we found ourselves in the middle of winter, and unfortunately, it was cold and rainy. We suited up in wetsuits and headed out into the waves, which were quite rough! From a Japanese perspective, it was surprising to start the tour under such bad weather conditions.

As expected, my wife, who isn't very confident in her physical strength, quickly returned to the boat due to the cold and the waves. I was worried about her, and I ended up slipping on the deck and injuring my side. We only managed to spot two manta rays near the ocean floor, which left us a bit disappointed on our first day in Hawaii.

I had joined the tour believing the reviews that said it would be fine even without understanding English, but I think it would be safer to go with a Japanese-speaking tour, even if it costs a bit more. However, I did find that the catamaran had less rocking than expected, so I hope to try again under better conditions.

常夏のハワイ、とは言え真冬おまけに生憎の雨で寒い中、屋根ひとつないところでウェットスーツに身を包み沖へ出るとかなりのうねりが！
われわれ日本人の感覚からすれば、こんな、悪天候の時に出航するのかと思ってしまう条件の中でのスタートとなりました。
案の定寒さと、うねりにより体力に自信のない女房は早々に船上に。
心配で同行した私も、デッキで滑り転倒して脇腹を痛める始末。
肝心のマンタは海の底辺りに２尾だけ現れたのを確認できたのみで、ハワイ島初日にすこしがっかりのツアーでした。
英語がわからなくても、勢いで大丈夫っていった書き込みを信じての参加でしたが、やはり費用が割高でも日本語でのツアーの方が安全面のためにも良いのではと思います。
ただ、双胴船のため、揺れは少ない方だと思いました、好条件の時ににリベンジしたいと思います。

It was my first time on the Big Island and my first snorkeling tour. There were only our family and one other group of Japanese people. The check-in and explanations were all in English, but there were also Japanese instructions, and the staff was kind, so I felt secure participating. Since it was a morning cruise, we were first served delicious bread and fruit, and before we knew it, we arrived at the snorkeling spot. The beautiful bay had calm waves, and we saw plenty of fish, which made us very satisfied! There were also plenty of floatation devices, so we could enter the water without any worries.

For lunch, we had handmade hamburgers from the staff, and we got to make our own burgers. They were delicious! The boat also had a restroom, which was reassuring. It was a wonderful snorkeling experience where we could fully enjoy the great nature of the Big Island.

初めてのハワイ島で初めてのシュノーケリングツアーでした。日本人は私たち家族ともう１組だけ・・・。受付や説明はすべて英語ですが、日本語の注意書きもあり、スタッフが親切なので安心して参加できました。モーニングクルーズなのでまずおいしいパンやフルーツが出てきて、あっという間にポイントに到着。美しい湾で波も穏やか、魚もたくさん見られて大満足！！浮き輪や浮き具なども豊富なので、不安なく海に入れます。
　昼食はスタッフ手作りのハンバーグで、自分でハンバーガーを作ります。美味しかったー！！船にはトイレもついていて安心。ハワイ島の大自然を満喫できる、素敵なシュノーケリングでした。

My most favorite experience on Big Island with Sea Paradise! A great crew and we were taken care of from start to finish. You start by checking in at the shopping center, drive 5 minutes to Keauhou Bay to park your vehicle, get fitted for your wet suit, and get on the boat. The sunset on along the Kona Coast was beautiful. The crew were extremely helpful, very knowledgeable about the history of the manta rays, humorous and went out of their way to make sure we spent the most time with the manta rays. We were one of the first boats in and last to leave. Plus, we were given fresh pineapple, juices/sodas and hot chocolate.
I do not know how to swim but the guides took extra care to make sure I made it on and off the boat with flotation devices. I would definitely recommend Sea Paradise!

I had high expectations for the main event of my trip to Hawaii, but I didn't see any dolphins at all. I understand that it's a wild animal, so it's not surprising. Even when they said, "It's a whale!" it was too far away, and even with my contact lenses, I couldn't see it well. They worked hard to find dolphins, and since we waited on the boat for a long time, I ended up feeling seasick, even though I usually don't take motion sickness medication. I hoped to do a lot of snorkeling since I couldn't see any dolphins, but it ended rather quickly. I think it was a stroke of luck that I got to see a sea turtle! They took a lot of photos, but honestly, if you don't buy a USB, you won't see anything, so I recommend purchasing it on the bus if you want to keep those memories. For lunch, I think "light snack" is a better description than "lunch." Later, I received an email saying, "Here are today's photos," but there were no attachments... I didn't even know who to contact about it. I think I might have had too high expectations. I received a discount voucher for the next time since I didn't see any dolphins, but to be honest, I'm not sure if I would want to participate again.

ハワイ旅行のメインイベント、くらいに思って期待しておりましたが、全くイルカに逢えませんでした。
野生の生き物なので仕方のないこととは思います。
鯨だよ！と言われてもかなり遠くてコンタクト着用していてもよく分からなかったです。
一生懸命イルカを探してくれて、長いこと船上で待機していたので普段は酔い止めを飲まない私でも船酔いしてしまいました。
イルカが見れなかった分、たくさんシュノーケリングができればと思いましたが、案外あっさり終わってしまいました。
ウミガメが見られたのは不幸中の幸いかなと思います！
写真を沢山撮ってもらいましたが、正直USBを買わない人は何も見られないので、思い出として欲しい方はバスの中で購入を希望しておいた方がいいと思います。
お昼もランチというか軽食という表現がベストかと思います。
後ほど、今日の写真です、とメールが届きましたが写真は添付されておらず…どこに問い合わせていいのかも分からず…
ちょっと期待し過ぎたかなと思いました。
イルカが見れなかったので次回割引券頂きましたが、次回も参加したいかと聞かれたら正直微妙なところです。

I heard that the waves are calmest in the morning, so I joined the first tour of the day. There were about 15 of us, and we went into the water in groups of 2 to 3 at a time. While you're diving, you don't feel much, but the waiting time on the boat can make you feel seasick (the waiting time is quite long). I recommend not having breakfast before participating. (It's better to take seasickness medication beforehand.) Some women ended up not riding the sea bob due to seasickness.

Also, the staff will take photos for you. The cost for the photo data and tips is not included in the participation fee, so I recommend bringing cash. (Tips are about $10 to $20 per person.)

波が一番穏やかと聞いたので、朝一番のツアーに参加しました。全員で１５名程で、一度に２～３名で海に潜ります。潜っている間はあまり感じませんが、待ち時間は船上のため酔います。（待ち時間が結構長いです。）朝食は取らずに参加されることをおすすめします。（酔い止めは飲んでおいた方が良いです。）数名の女性は船酔いのせいで、結局シーボブに乗られなかった方もいました。
また、スタッフの方が写真を撮ってくれます。写真のデータ代とチップの費用は参加費には含まれていないので、現金を持参される事をおすすめします。（チップは１人１０～２０ドルぐらいです）

We set sail and were immediately greeted by a whale. It was an amazing start, as we could clearly see the spout and the body along with the tail, raising our expectations of encountering dolphins and turtles. After that, under the captain's guidance, we encountered many dolphins and turtles just as we hoped. The baby turtles were incredibly cute. We were able to welcome 2018 with a wonderful beginning. The staff were also very kind, and I am grateful. Thank you.

I can't swim, so I was scared when I jumped from the boat. But even at my age, I found the courage to try, and surprisingly, I was able to do it. It became a journey of discovery where I could challenge myself. Thank you.

出航していきなりクジラのお出迎えです。
潮吹きと胴体にシッポもハッキリくっきり見ることが出来て最高な滑り出し、イルカちゃんやカメさんに出会える期待が高まる船出でした。
その後、船長さんの操縦で期待通りに沢山のイルカ達やカメ達に遭遇しました。子亀がとっても可愛らしかったです。２０１８年が素晴らしい幕開けで迎えることが出来ました。スタッフの皆さんもとっても親切で感謝です。ありがとうございました。（m）
泳げない私、船から飛び込む時怖かった。でも年をとってもやって見ると意外とできる勇気をもらいました。チャレンジ出来る発見の旅となりました。
ありがとう。（y）

Although we were a bit anxious as it was our first experience with snorkeling, we were able to encounter the wonderful underwater world of Hanauma Bay thanks to the appropriate and courteous guidance of our Japanese instructor.

シュノーケリング初体験の二人で多少不安もありましたが、案内役の日本人インストラクターの適切・丁寧な指導で素晴しいハナウマ湾の海中世界と出会うことができました。
