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＞

It was fun. 楽しかった

Reviewed by: mintama

Although the weather was unfortunately cloudy throughout the day and not sunny, the beauty of the sandbar's sea was highlighted when blue skies and light occasionally peeked through the clouds.

Since it wasn't low tide, the white sandy beach didn't rise above the water's surface, but we still enjoyed the stunning emerald green sea.

While snorkeling, we swam with many fish and encountered four sea turtles. There were even turtles swimming right next to us, which really got us excited when they came close!

The BBQ on the boat featured hamburgers, which were very delicious. The staff prepared them on the spot, adding cheese and other toppings, and they provided the service in a fun and engaging manner, making it enjoyable.

If I had one complaint, it would be that the guide staff during the transfer made some belittling jokes about Japanese people, which was off-putting. However, the other staff members were very friendly and great.

終始曇り空であいにくの天気で晴天というわけではなかったが、時々雲の切れ間からの青空と光が差し込むと、サンドバーの海の綺麗さが引き立って綺麗でした。
干潮ではなかったので、白い砂浜が水面に上がることはなかったが、エメラルドグリーンの海の綺麗さだけでも十分楽しめました。
シュノーケリングでは、たくさんのお魚と一緒に泳げ、ウミガメにも4匹遭遇できました。
人間のすぐ横で泳ぐ亀もいて近くに来た時はテンション上がりまくり！
船上でのBBQはハンバーガー。とっても美味しかったです。
スタッフがその場でチーズ等具材を挟んで提供してくれるのですが、事務的でなく遊びを交えて提供してくれ、楽しませてくれました。
1つ不満をあげるとすると、送迎の際のガイドスタッフが日本人を小馬鹿にしたジョークで蔑んでる感じを受け気を悪くしました。
その方以外のスタッフはとてもフレンドリーで良かったです。

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＞

It was the best experience!! 最高の体験でした！！

Reviewed by: はくぞう

I participated in the afternoon tour. I was a bit worried about the weather as it was slightly cloudy that day, but once the boat set sail, the sun came out, and I was able to see the beautiful sandbar. The malasadas served on the boat were freshly made, still warm, and fluffy.

We landed on the sandbar! The water was at calf height due to the low tide, and we played by lying down and jumping, while the staff captured the moments with a camera. Before the sea turtles appeared, a little squid also made a guest appearance (laughs), receiving cheers of "So cute!!" from the young women (laughs).

Then we went snorkeling at the coral reef. Guided by the staff, we snorkeled while observing the coral reef. We were also able to see the sea turtles that came to visit us. Lunch was served buffet style, with a variety of options including meat, salad, fruit, bread, and rice. I didn't eat much, but everyone else went back for seconds multiple times.

There are various things to keep in mind when participating, but the staff kindly explains everything. Even those who are snorkeling for the first time have practice time, so it's all good! (Those who can't swim can rest on the boat.) Also, if you book through VELTRA, you can rent prescription masks, so those with poor eyesight can enjoy snorkeling without worry.

If you have a waterproof camera like I do, you can enjoy the tour even more, but even if you don't, you can purchase a waterproof "disposable camera" on the boat, and the staff will also take photos of the participants, so there's no need to worry. The staff were unique, and I’m really glad I participated. This time, I joined with a colleague, but if I have the chance to travel to Hawaii again, I would like to bring my whole family along.

午後のツアーで参加いたしました。当日の天候は少し曇りで心配していましたが
船が出航すると晴れ間も現れ、美しいサンドバーを拝見することができました。
船内で振る舞われるマラサダは出来たてでまだ温かくてフワッフワです。
サンドバーに上陸！海面は引き潮でふくらはぎの高さで、寝そべって遊んだり、
ジャンプして滞空する瞬間をスタッフの方がカメラで撮影してくださいました。
ウミガメ登場の前に、小さなイカちゃんもゲストで登場（笑）
若い女性の「キャーカワイイ！！」という歓声を浴びていました（笑）
そして珊瑚礁のシュノーケリングです。スタッフの先導で珊瑚礁を見ながらシュノーケリング。
遊びに来てくれたウミガメも見ることができました。
昼食はビュッフェスタイルでお肉からサラダ、フルーツ、パン、ごはんなど様々なものが
準備されています。私はあまり食べませんでしたが、皆さん何度もおかわりされていましたよ。

参加の際、色々と注意しなければならないことがありますが、スタッフの方が親切に説明してくれます。
シュノーケリングが初めての方でも練習時間があるので大丈夫です！
（泳げない方は船上で休憩できます）
またVELTRAから申し込むと度付きのマスクをレンタルでき、
視力が悪い方も安心してシュノーケリングを楽しめます。
私のように防水カメラがお持ちでしたら、より一層ツアーを楽しめますが、
なくても船上で防水仕様の「写ルンです」が購入できますし
スタッフの方も参加者の写真を撮ってくれますので心配はいりません。
スタッフの方もユニークですし、参加できて本当によかったです。
今回は私と同僚の２人で参加しましたが、次にハワイ旅行に来る機会があれば
家族全員で参加したいと思います。

Molokini and Turtle Town Snorkel Cruise with Food & Open Bar - Pride of Maui

Best Snorkeling i've done

Reviewed by: AlexM

This was a great cruise out to the best place I have ever snorkelled, the water at Molokini Crater is really clear and there are lots of fish we even saw a Reef Shark. Turtle Town was great too and we saw a couple of Turtles while we were there, it is just a shame that most people don't listen to guidance and surround the poor things.
The staff were very friendly and helpful, and when I was feeling unwell made up a nice drink to help. I would definitely recommend this tour to other, however check before boarding if you will make it to the crated or not as they won't tell you until you have left the dock (experience of some friends who went a few days before us).

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＞

Manta is the best!!!! マンタ最高！！！！

Reviewed by: みかりんご

I was able to see a manta ray up close, and I was truly satisfied. There was a manta ray just about 10 centimeters in front of me!!!! A very beautiful lady who spoke Japanese guided us, which made me feel safe participating. She was also a great swimmer, like a mermaid. The participants were not only Japanese but also from various countries.

There were quite a few people who felt unwell, but I took motion sickness medication beforehand, so I was totally fine (*^◯^*). I'm not good with thrill rides, so the boat ride to see the manta rays was quite scary, but I got used to it after a while and was able to enjoy it.

The sunset and the starry sky viewed from the boat were truly wonderful and became a lifelong memory. I highly recommend it!

ものすごく近くでマンタを見ることができて、本当に大満足です。
目の前10センチくらいのところにマンタがいました！！！！
日本語を話せるとても綺麗なお姉さんが案内をしてくださり、安心して参加できました。泳ぎも上手で、マーメイドのようでした。参加者は日本人ばかりではなく、いろんな国の方がいました。
気分が悪くなっている方も結構いらっしゃいましたが、私は酔い止めを飲んで行ったので、全然平気でした(*^◯^*)
絶叫マシンなどが苦手なので、マンタに会いに行くまでの船がとても怖かったですが、しばらくすると慣れて、楽しむことができました。
船から見る夕日も、星空も、本当に素晴らしく、一生の思い出になりました。
本当にオススメです！

Hanauma Bay Snorkel Tour with Expert Guide & Waikiki Transportation

Best place and Best intro to snorkeling

Reviewed by: MelB

Hanauma Bay is where you want to begin your snorkeling experience in Oahu. Chieko and her husband were thorough, patient, kind and professional in all aspects of this snorkel tour at Hanauma Bay. The coral has lost some its color vibrancy from the daily influx of people swimming there but the fish were plentiful and made up for the moderate deficiency. I enjoyed it enough here to come again a second time, solo. Again, great tour guides and best place to begin your snorkel adventure. Enjoy!

There are various sandbar tours, but it seems this cruiser is the most wonderful one after seeing different boats at the port. It's decided!
Also, the staff were all very fun and lovely. The best.

Let's have a hamburger lunch, not just in the morning! It's delicious.

I recommend asking the female staff to take photos. They will have you pose in various ways, but they take beautiful pictures! It's a bit embarrassing, though.
Anyway, I highly recommend this tour!

Reviewed by: siki

The weather was great, and the sea was really beautiful (＾＾)♪ Since it was a morning trip, we arrived at the sandbar just in time for low tide, and in some places, the seawater had completely receded. During snorkeling, a sea turtle came up to the surface for air right in front of me, and I was able to swim a little with it! We had plenty of time, so even though we were running late, we weren't rushed at all and could swim leisurely and enjoy ourselves. However, the sandbar had rocky areas that were quite painful, so it would have been nice to have rental reef shoes. *It's hard to justify buying them just for this (＾＾；

天気にもめぐまれ海が本当にきれいでした（＾＾）♪
午前の便だったのでサンドバーではちょうど干潮の時間にあたり
場所によっては完全に海水が引いていました
シュノーケリングもちょうど海ガメが息継ぎに水面まで上がってきてくれて
目の前で見れ少しですが一緒に泳ぐこともできました！

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＞

Participate in Dolphin Junior High. イルカ中学に参加して

Reviewed by: 大澤しげみ

At 58 years old, I experienced snorkeling for the first time. I put on a wetsuit over my swimsuit, wore a life jacket, added fins, and attached the snorkel for mouth breathing. Everything was new to me, and then I dove into the sea. The blue sky, the blue ocean, and the crystal-clear water stretched as far as I could see, and there I was with dolphins. Not just a few, but dozens of them were swimming around me, right below and beside me, so close I could almost reach out and touch them. I was unbelievably excited and moved. I also made friends with the other participants, and we all had a great time together, laughing and enjoying ourselves on this wonderful tour. I participated with my husband and sister, and even though my sister visits Hawaii more than twice a year, it was her first time seeing dolphins, and she was thrilled to have such a precious experience. She was so moved that at 65, she was wearing a swimsuit and jumping into the ocean. I felt the same way; it was refreshing and incredibly healing. The blue ocean of Hawaii, the school of dolphins, the smiles of the participants, Julie's bright and fun personality, the photographer swimming like a mermaid, and the captain in a red T-shirt who suited the role perfectly—all the cheerful and fun staff made it the best memory of Hawaii. The dolphin experience was the highlight. I definitely want to participate again. Thank you to all the staff. I gained the energy to tackle work and house chores after returning to Japan. I want to brag to my friends about this. It’s a lifelong memory.

私 58才にして、初めてシュノーケリングを体験しました。水着の上にウエットスーツ、ライフジャケットを付け、足ヒレも付け、シュノーケルを付け口呼吸 すべてが初めての事で、いざ海にダイブ。青い空、青い海、どこまでも見渡せる透明度の海、その中に私とイルカがいました。何頭ではなく何十頭も泳いでいて、私の泳いでいるすぐ下にも、横にもイルカが、すぐ手の届く所にいるなんて、信じられないくらい興奮し感動しました。一緒に参加した人達とも仲良くなれて、みんなでワイワイ、ガヤガヤ、ノリノリでとても楽しいツアーでした。私は夫と姉と三人で参加しましたが、姉は年に2回以上はハワイに来てるのに、イルカを見に行ったのは初めてと、貴重な体験をしたと、とても喜んでいました。まさか65才になって水着を着て、海に飛び込むとはと、すっごく感動してました。私も同じ気持ちで、心が洗われ、とても癒されました。ハワイの青い海、イルカの群れ、参加した人達の笑顔、ジュリさんの明るく楽しいキャラ、カメラマンさんの人魚みたいに泳ぐ姿、赤Ｔシャツがよく似合うキャプテン、みなさん陽気で楽しいスタッフに恵まれ、最高に楽しいハワイの思い出となりました。イルカ中学最高でした。又ぜひ参加したいと思います。スタッフのみなさんありがとうございました。また日本に帰ってからの仕事、家事、頑張れる元気もらいました。友達に自慢したいと思います。一生の思い出です。

There were two groups participating, including a Filipino family who came from the mainland United States. I brought my mother along, but all the participants were quite good swimmers, so the guide, sensing this, took us out further than expected. Thanks to that, we were able to see turtles and a variety of colorful, rare fish, which made us very satisfied. I recommend the morning tour as the sea is clearer then.

アメリカ本土から来られたフィリピン人家族とで２組参加でした。

Fantastic place to swim, snorkel and meet the locals. If you do not have your own snorkel equipment, need a ride to and from this area and a good lunch, then this is a decent deal. However, I had my own equipment and in hindsight I wished I had rented a car (same cost) for travel to Kailua Beach. The beach is free, could have stayed till sunset (instead of 2:30 pm), explore the nightlife, and dined here instead of my expensive tourist trap in Waikiki. Learn from my experience, but come here for a great beach experience.

Close encounters with manta rays! マンタが間近に！

I was able to see several manta rays. Some of them came so close that I thought they might bump into me, which was very impressive. I also enjoyed the little fish, similar to horse mackerel, bumping into me. It was my first time snorkeling, but they taught me carefully, so I felt very secure. Although I saw the manta rays at night, the sunset in the evening was also a highlight. However, I think it's better for those who are prone to motion sickness to take some medication beforehand.

何枚ものマンタを見ることが出来ました。
なかにはぶつかるんじゃ無いかと思うくらい近づいてくるマンタもいて、とても迫力があります。アジの様な小魚がぶつかってきたりと、色々と楽しめました。
シュノーケリングは初めてでしたが、丁寧に教えてくれるのでとても安心です。
マンタを見るのは夜になってからですが、夕方のサンセットも見所です。

I have come to love dolphins! イルカが大好きになりました！

Reviewed by: ほっちょ

First of all, I would like to thank all the staff who took care of us!
On the day of the event, the weather was nice, the waves were calm, and the breeze on the boat was pleasant.
I was able to see the honu (sea turtles) coming up for air multiple times, which was enjoyable in itself.
When the sun went down, it felt a bit chilly in the water, so it was a good decision to borrow a wetsuit.
In the morning bus, our guide Julie cheerfully shared important information and details about Oahu, and what stood out to me was that dolphins have developed ultrasonic communication to convey their feelings.
When we arrived at the spot where the dolphins were, we entered the water and saw the dolphins in the distance!
We moved towards the direction of the dolphins with the other participants, but I was lagging behind and felt like crying inside, wanting to swim with the dolphins!! Just then, dolphins started coming towards us from behind!
I was truly moved to be so close that I thought I might touch them!
After that, dolphins swam slowly towards us from all directions, and later I heard there were about 70 of them.
I heard their squeaky sounds multiple times, and their spinning and belly-up courtship poses were absolutely adorable.
Since they are wild animals, I thought I would be happy just to see a few from a distance, so I was beyond happy.
For those who are not confident swimmers, there were floatation devices available for rent, and those who used them were able to move ahead without any issues.
The photos I posted were taken with my inexpensive underwater camera, but the professional photographer took even more beautiful shots, including some from deeper dives, so I think those who bring their own cameras will be satisfied with their purchases.
If you have the opportunity, making a video would be interesting as you can listen to the squeaky sounds and the clicking sounds, which are ultrasonic and hard for humans to hear.
Lastly, I want to thank Julie for the heartfelt send-off, as well as the powerful and warm captain, the cheerful photographer, and all the staff!
I definitely want to participate again!

まずお世話になったスタッフの皆さん、どうもありがとうございました！
参加当日は天気が良く波も穏やかで船上での風も心地よかったです。
何度も息継ぎをするホヌを見掛ける事が出来、それだけでも楽しかったです。
陽が陰ると海の中では肌寒く感じたのでウエットスーツを借りて正解でした。
朝のバス内ではガイドのジュリさんが明るく注意事項やオアフ島の事など教えて下さり中でも印象的だったのがイルカは超音波が発達していて気持ちが伝わるとの事でした。
いざイルカのいる地点に到着し海に入ると遠くからイルカ達が…！
参加者の方々とイルカのいる方向へ進んで行くのですが思う様に進めず一人どんどん遅れてしまい半泣き状態でイルカさん達と泳ぎたいよー！！と心の中で叫んでいたら私の後ろの方からもイルカ達がこちらに向かって水面へ近付いてきてくれました(;_;)
触れてしまうのではないかと思う位の距離に本当に感動しました！
その後も四方八方からイルカ達がゆっくり泳いできてくれて後で聞くと70頭位だったそうです。
キューキューと鳴く声が何度も聞こえ、ぐるぐるスピンする姿やお腹を真上に泳ぐ求愛ポーズなど本当に愛らしいです。
自然の生き物なので、せめて何匹か遠目でも見る事が出来ればなぁと思っていたので言葉に出来ない位に幸せでした。
泳ぎが苦手な方は浮き具の貸し出しもあり利用されていた方はどんどん先に進んでらしたので問題ないと思います。
投稿写真は私の安い水中カメラで撮ったものですが当日カメラマンさんが撮ってくれている写真はもっと綺麗で深く潜った所からのショットもありカメラ持参の方が購入しても満足出来ると思います。
余裕があればムービーにするとキューキューと鳴く声や後で調べた所、人には聞こえ辛いカタカタッとしたクリック音と言う別の超音波も後で聞き直せるので面白いと思います。
最後にお別れの時まで心のこもったお見送りをして下さったジュリさんを始めパワフルであったかいキャプテン、明るくフォローして下さったカメラマンさんやスタッフの皆さんありがとうございました！
是非また参加したいです！

First snorkel- and I'm hooked!

Reviewed by: Mirza Mughal

I can't swim and was going for my wife. Thank god I went through with it. Off the back the tour was very well organized. 4 crew members including the captain and everyone knew their jobs well and communicated well with us. Very helpful. Very nice breakfast and catamaran sail to lanai island to start with. We saw whales while going to lanai! near lanai we saw a big pod of dolphins. Both times the captain was knowledgeable about steering the boat and showing us the best views. The Dolphins came very close to our boat too! (See attached picture)when we got to the snorkel site- the crew was very empathetic to my lack of swimming skills. They helped me very gently through the entire thing and encouraged me to go into the waters with floats etc. and I'm so glad they did. We snorkeled for an hour at lanai and I had so much fun. After that we sailed back to Lahaina beach while the crew made burgers and we snorkeled at the Lahaina harbor and then ate food. All in all 5 stars to the crew for being on top of everything and at the same time being jovial about it. Definitely recommend taking this day excursion for the views of Maui island and great snorkeling sites. I saw turtles at both sites- and I don't even know how to swim!!

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧　水～土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能＜フライト100分／英語パイロット／ワイコロアヘリポート＞

I'm glad I experienced it at least once. 一度は体験してよかった

Reviewed by: ｍａｓａｔｏ

Since it was my first helicopter ride, I chose a slightly luxurious OP tour. The stability was more impressive than I expected. After an exciting takeoff, we headed towards the Kilauea volcano. However, we spent a long time just flying over black lava flows, and I was disappointed to see only a little orange magma from the crater. In the second half, as we headed towards Waipi'o Valley, the scenery changed dramatically, revealing beautiful coastlines reminiscent of a Jurassic Park movie, which made me very satisfied. In Waipi'o Valley, the pilot made wonderful turns, allowing us to enjoy a fantastic time. I couldn't understand what was being said in the English commentary, but I wish they had played a Japanese audio guide as well. Since it was quite a long flight, I think I would have been very satisfied if they had shortened the flight over Kilauea volcano to about a third and offered it at a lower price. According to the hotel staff, the pilots here are all former members of the Army helicopter unit and are exceptional pilots.

初めてのヘリコプターといううことで、ちょっと贅沢なＯＰツアーを選択しました。思っていたより素晴らしい安定感です。興奮気味での離陸後、キラウエア火山遊覧に向かいます。ところが延々と真っ黒な溶岩流の後ばかり、火口から見えたオレンジ色のマグマはほんの少しでがっかりな時間が続きます。後半はワイピオ渓谷へ向かうと景色は一変、きれいな海岸沿いにジュラシックパークの映画のような風景が現れ大満足です。ワイピオ渓谷ではパイロットが左右に旋回しながら素晴らしい時間を過ごさせていただきました。英語の案内で何を言っているのかわからなかったけど、、、日本語の案内テープでも流してくれればよかったかな。結構、長い時間のフライトなので、キラウエア火山での飛行を３分の1くらいに短縮して、もっとお安くしてくれれば大満足だったと思います。ホテルの人の話ではここのパイロットは陸軍のヘリコプター部隊のＯＢで抜群の操縦技術者ばかりというう事でした。

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＞

Are Japanese people easy targets? 日本人はいいカモなのでは。。？

Reviewed by: T夫妻

I understand that the weather can be unpredictable, so I'll write this with that in mind. Please keep that in consideration as you read.

At the sea turtle observation point, we were guided with a typical foreigner’s vibe. You can take it as fun or annoying.

At the sandbar location, we were dropped off in water that reached our waists, and we had to walk through water that came up to our ankles. It was very cold since the sun wasn't out. In the distance, there were other tours, and I could see the sandbar that I really wanted to see. I thought, why not just go there? But I suspect there are territorial boundaries in place. However, for us participants who paid a lot of money and have limited time, that doesn’t matter. If the sandbar was visible, I wish they had mentioned it.

From start to finish, it felt like a tour that was just taking advantage of Japanese people. That said, this might be something that can be said globally...

天候に左右されるのは承知の上で書きます。
読者側もそれを踏まえてお読み下さい。

ウミガメ観測地点では、適当な外人特有のノリで誘導されます。面白いととるか、ウザいととるか。

サンドバー地点では、今回は水面が腰まであるところで降ろされ、水面がくるぶしのところまで歩かされました。
太陽が出てなかったので非常に寒かったです。
遠方には違うツアーなのか、いかにも見たかったサンドバーが散見されました。
それならばそこまで行けば良いのでは？と思うのですが、おそらく縄張りがあるのではと思います。
しかし、高いお金を払って滞在時間が限られている我々参加者にとっては、そんなの知ったことではありません。
サンドバーが見えているのであれば言ってほしかったです。

最初から最後まで、日本人をカモにしているとしか思えないツアーでした。
とは言いつつ、これは世界的に言えることかもしれませんが。。

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＞

I was able to see a sea turtle right in front of me! ☆ 目の前で海ガメが見れました☆

Reviewed by: YOKO

I had an amazing time! Luckily, I was able to see a sea turtle right in front of me, which was so moving! I had heard that sometimes you can see them and sometimes you can't, so I was very satisfied to see one! I participated in the afternoon tour, and the food on the boat was incredibly delicious, and I ate a lot! The meat, in particular, was really tasty! I didn't go snorkeling; I just kept eating! The ocean was, as expected, like paradise, and it felt much cleaner than Waikiki Beach!

すごく楽しかったです！運良く、目の前で海ガメが見れて感動しました☆海ガメは見れる時と見れない時があると聞いていたのですが、見れて大満足でした！午後のツアーに参加しましたが、船の中でのお食事がすごく美味しくて沢山食べました！特にお肉がすごく美味しかったです！シュノーケリングには行かずに、ずっと食べてました！海も、さすが天国の海というだけあって、ワイキキのビーチよりもすごく綺麗に感じました！

カネオヘ湾　カヤック&シュノーケリング＜BBQランチ・英語ガイド＞

Kayaking & Snorkeling カヤック＆シュノーケル

Reviewed by: おっちゃん

It was great to enjoy kayaking and snorkeling at the same time. The two instructors were very kind and it was fun. We rented a car, so we joined at the meeting point. The meeting location was easy to find, no problems there. Since there was "no transportation provided," it would have been best if the cost was a little lower because of that, but I guess that's just how it is. The snorkeling offered a different view compared to Hanauma Bay. We saw what appeared to be a sea turtle! I was very satisfied.

カヤックとシュノーケルが一度に楽しめるのでとてもよかったです。2人のインストラクターの人たちもとても親切で楽しかったです。我々はレンタカーを借りていたので現地集合で参加しました。集合場所はわかりやすく問題なし。「送迎なし」なので、費用がその分すこし安くなればベストだったけど、それは仕方ないところでしょうか。シュノーケルは、ハナウマ湾とはまた違った景色でした。ウミガメ（と思われるもの）を見ましたよ！満足でした。

Four Winds Afternoon Snorkel Cruise & Turtle Watching Tour with Taco Bar Lunch

Average, but would still recommend...

Reviewed by: SkeeterNWife

The staff are friendly, and the food was surprisingly enjoyable (my husband had a cheeseburger and I had the boca burger.. also came with all condiments, chips, and drinks). We've been to a couple other snorkeling adventures before, and this one offered pretty much the same entertainment. If you've never tried a snorkel trip and plan to visit Maui, we would still recommend this activity.

モロキニ島シュノーケリングクルーズ ＜朝・昼食付／現地集合＞

It was amazing! 最高でした‼︎

Reviewed by: マリコ

I went on March 29! I was a bit worried about the online reservation, but everything was well taken care of by the person who picked us up. In our group, my family was the only Japanese, but the Japanese staff member Takako (she's the best!!) was always attentive, and she was really reliable for me, traveling with a 5-year-old and a 1-year-old!

Due to the weather, we couldn't go to Molokini Island this time, but we saw whales twice, and it was a very enjoyable time. I want to have a revenge trip to Molokini Island, so I plan to go again!

3月29日に行ってきました！ネット予約でちょっぴり心配でしたが、お迎えにきてくれた方から全て行き届いてました。グループには日本人がウチの家族しかいなかったのですが、日本人スタッフのタカコさん（彼女 最高‼︎）が常に気にかけてくださって、５歳と１歳の子連れの私には本当に頼りになりました！
お天気の影響で今回はモロキニ島に行けませんでしたが、クジラも２回も見れましたし とっても楽しいひと時でした
モロキニ島はリベンジしたいので また行きたいと思ってます！
