All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

Swimming alongside dolphins and sea turtles in the crystal-clear ocean was truly breathtaking! I also visited several famous snorkeling spots, but the clarity of the water and the number of fish in this tour were overwhelmingly superior. It's recommended not only for those who want to swim with dolphins and sea turtles but also for anyone looking to see a lot of fish while snorkeling. I believe it will become the best memory for ocean lovers in Hawaii. They take plenty of photos, making it a great choice for a honeymoon as well. Additionally, the guide and the crew all worked to create a fun atmosphere, allowing us to genuinely enjoy the experience. It was a tour that made me want to participate again!

透き通った海の中をイルカやウミガメが泳ぐ姿は圧巻でした！また、複数の有名なシュノーケリンスポッとも行きましたが、海の透明度や魚の数はこのツアーが圧倒的に秀でていました。(>_<)
イルカやウミガメと泳ぎたい人だけでなく、シュノーケリングで沢山の魚を見たい人にもおすすめです⑅︎◡̈︎* 海好きの人はハワイで1番の思い出になると思います。沢山の写真を撮ってくれるので、ハネムーンにもおすすめです♪
また、ガイドさんはじめ乗組員皆が楽しい雰囲気を作ろうとしてくれたため、心から楽しむことができました。また参加したいと思えたツアーでした(*^^*)

I was lucky enough to see a pod of dolphins and a sea turtle! The staff was very energetic, and I completely forgot about the early morning struggle and had an amazing time! The hula lesson was also fun.

I requested photos, and they took a lot of priority shots for us, including aerial photos that we couldn't take ourselves, which made me very satisfied.

The activities included stand-up paddleboarding, canoeing, and a waterslide. The waterslide was even more fun than I imagined, and I went down it multiple times.

The hamburgers we had on the boat were the best. I want to participate again when I come back to Oahu!

運が良く、イルカの群れと、海ガメさんも観れました！スタッフの方もテンションが高く、朝早くてキツイのも忘れてめちゃくちゃ楽しめました！フラのレッスンも面白かったです＼(^ω^)／
写真を頼んだのですが、たくさん優先的に写真を撮ってもらい、自分たちでは撮れない空撮の写真ももらえて大満足です。
アクティビティでは、スタンダップパドルや、カヌーや、滑り台がありました。滑り台は想像以上なら面白くて何回もしました。
船の上で食べるハンバーガーは最高でした。
また、オアフに来たら参加したいです！！

I was glad to be able to see wild dolphins up close. The briefing before meeting the dolphins was thorough and left a good impression. Thank you to all the guides.

間近で野生のイルカをみることができて良かったです。イルカに会う前のレクチャーも丁寧で好感でした。ガイドのみなさんありがとうございました。

Due to my schedule, I couldn't go during low tide. If the tide had been out, I might have been more impressed. Also, it was raining. This is something you wouldn't know unless you go.

スケジュールの都合で、干潮の時間に行けませんでした。潮が引いていたら、もっと感動したかも。
あとは、雨が降っていました。これは行ってみないと分からないですが。

Outstanding crew. My wife does great in calm water but with the choppy water she was apprehensive about snorkeling. The crew calmed her and threw bred crumbs into the water by her to get fish to come near her so she could enjoy the snorkeling close to the boat. Food was great.

It was raining and very cold, but the staff really got everyone excited, and I was able to enjoy a fun snorkeling experience✨ When we spotted a turtle, the captain kindly stopped the boat, which I thought was very considerate! I definitely want to try again on a sunny day!!!

雨が降っていてとても寒かったですが、スタッフの皆さんが盛り上げてくださって楽しいシュノーケルをすることができました✨
カメを見つけたらキャプテンが船を止めてくださったりとても良心的だったなあと思います！
次は天気のいい日にぜひ再チャレンジしたいと思います！！！

Wauw, this was so nice, beautiful "dive" space on scooter, beautiful fish. My husband (non swimmer) even went with me and very proud of him that he did it :)

Until just before participating, he was a beginner with low enthusiasm, but after hearing the class representative Julie's talk on the bus, his spirits lifted. As soon as we arrived and received the explanation, we quickly spotted Dolphin Sensei and jumped in without any time to worry!

While he, who was a beginner, was swimming, I, who should have been able to swim, was flustered with my first snorkeling and fins. By the time I settled down, everyone was already swimming smoothly with Dolphin Sensei. I got to swim with fish that felt like they were in an aquarium, and I even met Professor Turtle and the little professor—amazing!

The guy next to me was much more enthusiastic than before, which was great. At one point, the speaker had issues, and there was an impromptu ukulele performance. The hamburgers were delicious, and it was such a fun tour! I'm really glad I participated.

I wish I had taken more photos… I regretted it a bit, but I'm glad we got some good shots.

I want to participate again when I go to Hawaii next time, so I hope the laws don't change… but I understand it's for Dolphin Sensei, so it can't be helped.

参加直前まで、彼が海外も初、カナヅチで、テンション低めの彼でしたが、乗ったバスの学級委員長であるジュリさんのお話でテンション上がり、ついて早々説明を聞いてすぐにイルカ先生が見つかって飛び込んで!!って、心配している時間もなくあっという間に着水!!
カナヅチだった彼より、泳げたはずの私が、初のシュノーケル＆フィンであたふた（）
落ち着いた頃には、みんな既にスイスイ泳がれてて、イルカ先生たちと泳いでました。
水族館にいるような魚さん達とも泳げたし、ウミガメ教授や子教授とも会えてサイコー!!

隣の彼は、行く前と違って、テンションがグーーン↑↑ってあがって、良かったです。
途中で、スピーカーの調子が悪く、急遽ウクレレ演奏もあって、ハンバーガーも美味しく、楽しすぎるツアーでした✨
参加してほんとによかった❤

写真ももっと撮ってもらえば良かったなぁ…
って、後悔してはみたものの、ちゃんと撮ってくれてて良かったです★

今度ハワイに行ってもまた参加したいので、法律が変わりませんように、、
イルカ先生のためだから、仕方ないのだけど…

This time, I participated with my 3-year-old and 11-year-old children. We were told to jump into the water from the boat, and I was worried about whether my 3-year-old would be okay, but the staff kindly helped him down from the boat, and everyone was so nice and helpful.

The dolphins came up to the surface, so my younger child was able to see them and was thrilled, shouting "Dolphin!" After that, we went to a snorkeling spot that was so beautiful we could see the fish from the boat, and we were lucky enough to encounter a sea turtle! At first, my 3-year-old was scared of the deep sea since it was their first time, but by the end, they were crying because they didn't want to leave (laughs).

The staff were all kind and fun, and time flew by so quickly.

Since the boat does sway a lot, I think taking motion sickness medication is essential. Even though I wore a rented wetsuit, I felt cold in the water towards the end, so I recommend renting a wetsuit as well. They had children's sizes available, which was a big help.

I would love to participate again if I have the chance!

今回は3歳、11歳の子連れで参加。
船からはジャンプで入ります‼︎と言われ3歳の子は大丈夫かな？とハラハラしてましたがスタッフの人が船の上から優しく降ろしてくれたりと、みんな優しくて助かりました。
イルカが水面まで上がってきてくれたので、下の子もイルカを見る事が出来てイルカーー‼︎と喜んでいました☆
その後に行ったシュノーケリングポイントでは船の上からでも中の魚が見える程キレイな場所で、運良く海ガメにも遭遇出来ました‼︎
最初は初めての深い海に怖がっていた3歳児も最後は帰るのが嫌で泣くほどでした(笑)

スタッフの方々も皆んな優しく楽しくてほんとあっという間に時間が過ぎてしまいました。

どうしても船が揺れるので酔い止めは必須かなと思います。
レンタルしたウェットスーツを着てても最後の方は海の中で寒さを感じたのでウェットスーツもレンタルをオススメします。
子供用もちゃんと用意されていたので助かりました。

また機会があったら参加したいなと思いました☆

Despite not being confident in swimming, I participated on the day of arrival. Thanks to the extensive support, I was able to see many impressive manta rays without feeling scared. The sunset on the way there was beautiful. I felt a bit chilly, so don't forget to bring warm clothing.

泳ぎに自信がないくせに
到着日に参加しました。
手厚いサポートがあったため
怖い思いをせず、迫力のマンタを
たくさん見ることができました。
行きの夕日も綺麗でした。
少し肌寒い思いをしたので、
防寒着を忘れずに。

I was nervous about our first family trip to Hawaii, but with the cheerful Japanese staff member, Julie, leading us, we had a wonderful experience. I definitely want to participate again when we visit next time.

初めてのハワイ家族旅行で緊張しておりましたが、とても陽気な日本人スタッフ（ジュリさん）にリードしていただき、楽しい経験ができました。再訪の時は、是非また参加したいと思います。

The meeting place had changed, and even at the pickup time, no one showed up, so I waited for about an hour. I started to feel anxious, but once the tour actually began, the Japanese guide provided a thorough and attentive experience. They took a lot of photos for us, and we had a great time. We were able to watch many turtles, and the sandbar was beautiful.

集合場所が変わってたこともあり、ピックアップ時間になっても全く来ず、1時間くらい待ちました。不安になりましたけど、ツアーが実際始まったら日本人ガイドの方がしっかりガイドして下さりました。写真もたくさん撮ってくださり、楽しめました。亀もたくさんウォッチング出来ましたし、サンドバーも綺麗でした。

We loved our experience! The instructors were professional, informative and made us feel safe. We were able to see several Galapagos sharks and a barracuda even joined us at one point. And the whole experience was captured through pictures available for purchase afterwards. Overall, our group had an amazing experience and would definitely recommend to others!

砂州は海面下にありましたが、この美しい場所に失望することはありません。亀や魚と一緒に泳ぎ、明るい日差しを楽しむことができます。スタッフは皆温かく親切です。この場所をお見逃しなく。

The sandbar was well beneath the sea level, but you never be disappointed for this beautiful place. You can swim with turtles and fishes and have a brightest sunshine.
Staff are all warm and kind. Don't miss this place.

One instructor is assigned to every six people, allowing for interaction with the dolphins. I have participated in a dolphin interaction event at Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise, but this experience was so much more substantial and satisfying that it’s not even comparable.

We were able to touch the dolphins, observe them swimming up close, and even make them jump. The hour flew by in no time. Unfortunately, my 5-year-old grandchild was scared and couldn't put their face in the water while wearing a mask. I wish we had gotten them more accustomed to the water beforehand.

6人に1人のインストラクターが着いてイルカと触れ合います。
八景島シーパラダイスでもイルカとの触れ合いイベントに参加したことが有りますが、内容は比較にならない程ボリューム満点で大満足です。

触れたり、泳いでいる様子を顔を付けて見たり、ジャンプさせたり、あっという間の1時間でした。
残念なのは、5歳の孫がマスクを着けて顔を水に浸けられず、怖がってしまった事。水にもう少し鳴らしておけばよかった。

The pier only has a restroom, so it's better to prepare and bring any items you want to purchase, like waterproof goods and towels, in advance. The boat ride is about 10 minutes, so I didn't experience seasickness.

I wasn't expecting much from the food, but it was delicious. The BBQ lunch on the boat was really great!

The snorkeling was a bit cramped because there were too many people, and I got kicked by others' feet while swimming in a line, which was a bit tough, but it was still fun.

You can borrow a GoPro camera! A waterproof camera or waterproof cover is essential!

船乗り場にはトイレしかないので、防水グッズやタオルなど購入したいものは予め準備して行ったほうがいいです。ボートでは約１０分なので船酔いすることもなかったです。
ご飯は期待していなかったですが、美味しかったです。船の上でのBBQランチとっても良かったです！
スノーケリングは人数が多すぎて一列で泳ぐ時に人の足で蹴られたりと少しぎゅうぎゅうな感じで泳いでたのでそれだけ辛かったですが、楽しかったです。
GOプロのカメラを借りれます！防水カメラや防水カバーは必須です！

There was a mix-up with the pickup on the way, which led to me having to call the tour company and wait for about an hour, but I was eventually picked up and taken to Kailua. As an apology for the mix-up, they provided a free bike rental, and the staff were very kind and attentive, which was great.

In previous Kailua tours, I couldn't store my luggage, but with this plan, I was able to use a locker, so I didn't have to carry valuables to the beach, and I could leave my change of clothes, which was super convenient. Thanks to the rental bikes, I was able to visit Lanikai Beach and enjoy snorkeling. In the afternoon, I also had a great time shopping in Kailua Town. It was truly a fun day. I would like to sign up for this tour again the next time I go to Kailua. Thank you!

行きのお迎えの手違いでツアー会社に電話したり小1時間待つというハプニングがありましたが無事にピックアップしてもらいカイルアに。
手違いのお詫びに自転車を無料レンタルして頂いたりスタッフの方も親切に対応してくれてとてもちゃんとフォローしてくれたので良かったです。
今までのカイルアツアーだと手荷物を預けたりできなかったのですがこちらのプランだとロッカーに荷物預けられたので貴重品を海に持ち歩かなくてよいし着替えも置いとけるのですごい便利でした。
レンタル自転車のおかげでラニカイビーチも行くことができてシュノーケリングを堪能することができました。そして午後からはカイルアタウンでショッピングも満喫してホントに楽しい1日でした。次回、またカイルア行く際にもこのツアーを申し込みたいと思います。
ありがとうございました。

I went four years ago, and it was fun and beautiful! So I participated for the second time. It was just a morning tour, but I was able to spend the afternoon leisurely, making it a meaningful experience, so I highly recommend it. The energy of the female attendant was fantastic, which made it even more enjoyable! (We also took photos at the end!) I want to participate again the next time I go to Hawaii!

4年前にも行ったのですが、楽しかった＆美しかった！ので2回目の参加をしてきました。
午前中だけのツアーでしたが、午後がゆっくり使えるので有意義に過ごす事ができたのでおすすめです。
アテンドの女性の方のノリが最高でより楽しかったです！（最後に写真も撮って頂きました！）
次にハワイに行った時もまた参加したいです！

There was almost nothing except for the sea turtles, but when I returned to Tokyo, I realized once again how wonderful it is.

海がめ以外はほとんど何もいなかったが、東京に戻るとすばらしさが改めて分かる。＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊*****************

I have always been plagued by rain during my previous two visits, but this time I finally enjoyed the beautiful blue of Lanikai Beach. The kayaking was pleasant, and the staff was friendly, which made me very satisfied. I would love to participate again.

これまで２回は常に雨にたたられてましたが、
今回はやっと晴れてラニカイビーチのキレイなブルーを堪能出来ました。カヤックも気持ち良くて
スタッフもフレンドリーで満足でした。
また参加したいですね。

The weather was bad, and the sandbar was cold and uncomfortable.

I was lured by the word "BBQ" and didn't pay much attention, but it felt more like eating hamburgers on a boat with everyone rather than a BBQ (laughs).

After snorkeling, we just returned and disbanded, so changing clothes was either in the restroom or right on the bus. It might be a good idea to bring a little extra towel!

天気が悪く
サンドバーは寒くて
辛かったです。

BBQという言葉に誘われてて
よく見てなかったのですが
BBQというよりは
ハンバーガーを船で
みんなで食べる感じでした（笑）

シュノーケルやったあとは
戻ってそのまま解散になるので
着替えはトイレかそのままバスに
乗る感じだったので
タオルは少し多めのがいいかも
しれません！

The day before was a heavy rain, so I participated with a gloomy mood, but on the day itself, the weather was beautifully clear, almost like a lie. The way the foreign male guide on the bus got everyone excited was amazing. It was definitely worth participating. The sandbar and snorkeling were incredibly fun. The lunch was delicious, just as rumored. It was a perfect day without any complaints. I definitely want to participate again next time.

前日が大雨だったのでお通夜な気分で参加したのですが、当日は嘘のように晴れ渡ったお天気。行きのバスの外国人男性ガイドさんの盛り上げ方は凄かったです。参加して間違いなし。サンドバーも、シュノーケリングも凄く楽しかった。お昼も評判通り美味しかった。文句なしの一日です。また今度も是非参加したいです。

There were tropical fish, but I mistakenly thought I would see them on the offshore island, so I was expecting more beautiful coral reefs. Aside from that, it was a fun crew and delicious food (the kalua pig was the best), and I also got to see dolphins and turtles. It would have been even better if I understood English! Most of the participants were foreigners. The sailing in the nice weather during the morning felt great.

熱帯魚はいましたが、沖の島に渡って観るものと勝手に勘違いしていたのでもっと綺麗なサンゴ礁と期待していました。その事を除けば楽しいクルーと美味しい食事(カルアピック最高)、イルカや亀にも会えました。英語が判ればもっと最高かな！参加者はほぼ外人。天気の良い午前中セイリングは気持ち良かったです。

I participated in a tour at Dolphin Middle School in April.

The weather and sea conditions were great, so I was excited to join. Before we spotted any dolphins, we were able to see several sea turtles coming up to the surface from the boat. After a while, we found a pod of dolphins, put on the rented wetsuits, and started snorkeling. We were able to see about 50 wild dolphins. Although they were a bit far away, the water was so clear that I was glad to see them.

At a different location during our second snorkeling session, I was able to see two sea turtles, and I’m really glad I participated. I would love to join again.

４月にイルカ中学のツアーに参加してきました。

天気も海の状態も良いということでワクワクしながら参加しました。　
イルカが見つかる前に船の上からウミガメが何匹か水面に出てきたところを見ることができました。
何十分かしてからイルカの群れが見つかり、レンタルしたウェットスーツを着て、シュノーケルを開始しました。
野生のイルカを５０匹くらいは見ることができました。　
少し遠かったですが、透明度が高かったので見ることが出来て良かったです。

場所を変えて二回目にシュノーケルをしたところではウミガメを２匹見ることが出来、本当参加して良かったです。
また参加したいなと思っております。

The beautiful sea and sky! The staff were friendly and very kind. The hamburger for lunch was delicious. During the sea turtle watching, I was able to see about three turtles! I was lucky enough to swim right next to a sea turtle while snorkeling!

綺麗な海と空！またスタッフさんも気さくでとても親切でした。ランチのハンバーガーも美味しかったです。ウミガメウォッチングでは3匹ほど見ることができました！シュノーケリング中に運良くすぐ側でウミガメと泳ぐことができました！

Fun day At Captain Bob's . Amazing experience to see the mantas and turtles . Good bbq lunch

This is a must do thing to do when visiting Hawaii especially if you want to see Hawaii's state fish. Dan and Chieko were great .

Only sad thing is that we wanted to stay longer but unable to.

This trip was good. We got the feeling that We are in good, professional hands. The guide really knew what she was talking about (highly trained) what you don't see always. The boat was good to This trip. It was easy to see and go to the sea and safe, comfortable to sit while driving. The lunch was average and facilities quite poor but it worked okay. We did see dolphins but not so close. They We scared by other group and another boat. That was dissapointing. But We did see some whales also.

I was thrilled to see sea turtles up close! The cruise had cheerful music and lasted nearly an hour! I was very satisfied! However, there was no shade, so I would definitely recommend providing something like umbrellas for those who are concerned about sunburn.

ウミガメをめっちゃ近くで見れて興奮しました！クルーズも陽気な音楽がかかっていて１時間近くありました！とても満足です！ただ影がないので日焼けが気になる人の為に是非パラソルの様な日陰を作って欲しいです。

I signed up for this tour on my first trip to Hawaii. I wanted to see sea turtles so badly... My wish came true, and I was able to see the sea turtles and even swim with them. It was a truly precious experience.

初のハワイでこのツアーに申し込みしました。ウミガメに会いたくて会いたくて…
願いが叶いウミガメを見ることと、一緒に泳ぐことまでできました。
とても貴重な体験をさせて頂きました。
