All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

I was moved to see a pod of dolphins and sea turtles, and the cheerful crew made the experience enjoyable on board! I was very grateful that they also took care of my 4-year-old daughter, who was scared of the ocean and stayed on the boat, and she had a great time too!

イルカの群れにも海亀にも会えて感動した他、陽気なクルーの皆様が盛り上げて楽しませてくれたので船上でも楽しく過ごせました！海を怖がり船に残った4歳の娘の面倒も見て頂けてとてもありがたかったし娘も楽しめました！

As soon as we gathered, they kindly and concisely taught us how to use the snorkel and tips for spotting dolphins. We headed to the dolphin encounter spot in about 30 minutes on a high-speed jet.

From the start, we encountered many pods of dolphins. The captain made several moves with the boat, about 4 to 5 times, to get us as close as possible to the dolphins, and at each spot, we met many dolphins. The guide also entered the water with us and helped lead us close to the dolphins. The water was clear and beautiful. At the final spot, a large dolphin swam right beneath us, which was truly moving. Overall, I think we encountered over 50 dolphins, and we could even hear their sounds underwater.

The view of the sea from the boat was also very beautiful. Although I felt a bit anxious about snorkeling for the first time and swimming after a long time, after encountering so many dolphins, I wanted to swim even more. Both the captain and the guide were kind. I definitely want to participate again.

集合して直ぐに、シュノーケルの使い方や、イルカを見つけたときのポイントなどを、簡潔かつ丁寧に教えてくださいました。イルカと出会えるスポットまで約３０分、高速ジェットで向かいました。
最初から、たくさんのイルカの群れと遭遇しました。キャプテンはたくさんのイルカとなるべく近くに行けるようにと、その後4〜5回は船で移動を繰り返してくれて、どのスポットもたくさんのイルカと出会いました。ガイドさんも一緒に海に入り、イルカの近くに誘導して下さいました。海の中も透明できれいでした。最後スポットでは、自分たちのちょうど真下を大きなイルカが通り過ぎてくれて感動しました。総じて５０頭以上と出会えたと思います。海の中で鳴き声も聞こえました。
船から見える海もとても美しかったです。初めてのシュノーケリング、久しぶりに泳ぐことで若干不安がありましたが、たくさんのイルカと遭遇してからはもっと泳ぎたいと思いました。
キャプテンもガイドさんも親切でした。是非また参加したいです。

It was very beautiful, and I was surprised when it suddenly appeared in the middle of the ocean. The turtles were also searching hard, and I was able to see a few. However, the snorkeling was a bit disappointing because the water clarity wasn't very good. I often dive in Okinawa, and I feel that the clarity there is significantly better. It might depend on the location, though.

とてもきれいでした、海の真ん中に突然現れて驚きました、亀も一生懸命探してくれて何匹か見られました、ただ、シュノーケルは海の透明度があまりよくなく少し残念でした、沖縄でよくダイビングするのですが、透明度は沖縄の方が数段いいなと感じました、場所にもよるのかもしれませんが。

I was incredibly moved to swim with dolphins and sea turtles! I feel grateful for being able to dive into the world of Lassen, which has enriched my life even more! I was also deeply impressed by the high level of awareness of the staff, starting with class president Julie! Thank you very much!

イルカや海ガメと一緒に泳げてめちゃくちゃ本当ーっに感動しました！ラッセンの世界に潜り込め、私の今後の人生をより一層豊かにしてもらえたと感謝してます！学級委員長のジュリーを始め、スタッフの意識の高さにもまた感動感激でした！ありがとうございました！

On my first trip to Hawaii, I absolutely wanted to visit the heavenly sea. On the day of the trip, the weather was cloudy, and I couldn't see the beautiful ocean scenery I had hoped for, but by the time we went snorkeling, it cleared up, and I was so happy to swim in the crystal-clear water with sea turtles and fish. My husband is not a strong swimmer, so I was anxious about snorkeling alone, but the staff were kind and provided great guidance, allowing me to enjoy swimming. The snacks were also delicious. I definitely want to go again.

初めてのハワイ旅行、天国の海は絶対に行きたいと思っていました。当日天気は曇り空で期待していたような海の景色はなかなか見られませんでしたが、シュノーケリングをする時間には晴れてきて透き通るような海の中をウミガメや魚たちと泳ぐことができてとても嬉しかったです。主人は泳ぐのが苦手で、シュノーケリングは私一人の参加で不安でしたが、スタッフの方が優しく指導してくださって楽しく泳ぐことができました。軽食もおいしかったです。是非また行きたいと思います。

It was amazing. The color of the sea was very beautiful. I also encountered a sea turtle, and snorkeling in the coral reef was a lot of fun as I got to see many colorful fish—it was really beautiful. I'm very satisfied. The staff were all nice and fun people. Thank you very much. I would like to participate again.

最高でした。海の色がとても綺麗
ウミガメにも出会えたし、サンゴ礁の海でのシュノーケリングは色んな色の魚達に出会えてとても楽しかって綺麗だったー満足です。
スタッフの方もいい人ばかり そして楽しい人達
ありがとうございました 又、参加したいです。

There was one female crew was quite rude, it feels like she just needs a job to pay the bills.The food wasn't really pleasant either.

The snorkeling part was good. Remaining hour and a half was the most boring tour I even had in Hawaii. Complete waste of time and money. Would not recommend this tour to anybody.

This is my third time participating in the Angel's Sea tour, but it was my first time on an early morning tour. The weather was great, and I was very satisfied to walk right in the middle of the sea. Above all, the sailing staff was cheerful and fun! I always feel excited. Thank you!

天使の海、ツアー参加は３回目なのですが、朝早いツアーは初めてでした。お天気だったし、海のど真ん中を歩けたので大満足です。何よりセイリングスタッフが陽気で楽しい！毎回ウキウキします。ありがとうございました！

The Japanese female staff member explained everything politely, and I had a great time! I was lucky to see 20 dolphins and a sea turtle too!

Thank you so much!!!!

女性の日本人staffさんが丁寧に説明してくれて凄く楽しかったです(´∇｀)
イルカ20頭＆海亀も見られてラッキーでした♡

ほんとにありがとうございました!!!!

We had a great time out on this cruise got to be up close to wild turtles which was great

I was able to fulfill my dream of "swimming with dolphins"! Both the guide and the captain were truly wonderful people, and they know the waters of Kona inside and out, making for a completely satisfying tour without any complaints.

Moreover, we stopped the boat for just a few minutes before spotting dolphins. While it seems that such luck doesn't happen every time, thanks to Captain K's sound judgment, we were able to encounter the dolphins quickly. He was able to instantly gauge the direction the pod was moving and efficiently took us to the dolphin spot without wasting any time.

This time, the dolphins seemed to be in a great mood, and we saw around 50 of them! They were close enough to reach out and touch (though touching the dolphins is prohibited). It was truly an unforgettable experience.

Guide R, despite being young, was very knowledgeable about Hawaii's history and shared many interesting things with us after the tour. I absolutely recommend this dolphin tour!

「イルカと一緒に泳ぐ」という夢を叶えられました！！
ガイドさん船長さん共に本当にお人柄がよく、コナの海を知り尽くしているので
何の不満もなく大満足のツアーでした☆
しかもイルカ発見まで船を停めてほんの数分、、毎回こんな都合が言い訳ではないようですが
K船長の正しい判断のおかげでイルカたちにすぐ出会えました。
しかもちゃんとイルカの群れが動く方向を瞬時に見極め、無駄なく私たちをイルカスポットに連れて行ってくれます。
今回はイルカの機嫌もとても良かったようで、ざっと５０頭は見れました！
そして手を伸ばせば触れられる距離(イルカに触れるのは禁止)。。もう言うことなしの感動です。
ガイドのRさんもお若いのにハワイの歴史を詳しくご存知で、ツアー後もたくさん色んなことを教えてくれました。
ここのイルカツアーは絶対におすすめです！

Wonderful crew and captain, thoroughly enjoyed the trip. The food was great and the service was wonderful. Molokini was beautiful and was well worth the trip, visibility to at least 80 feet! Soo many fish! Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to do something different and spend a half day snorkeling but still have time for to do something else after.

We participated with our son's girlfriend. The weather was perfect, and we were on a boat that could hold about 50 people. In the past, I had a trauma from a shaky boat in Thailand, but this time it didn't rock at all, and it was very comfortable. For lunch, we could choose our favorite drinks and eat as much salad as we wanted. The staff was very kind and always attentive. I was so happy that I didn't have to give a tip, but I decided to be generous. At the bow of the boat, dolphins joyfully led the way in groups, and the cliffs of Na Pali were breathtakingly beautiful no matter where you looked. I'm really glad we went.

息子の彼女と私たち夫婦で参加しました。お天気は最高で、50人乗り位のボート。
昔、タイで揺れたボートにトラウマでしたが、今回は全然揺れなくって、快適でした。
ランチは、好きな飲み物をもらって、サラダも食べたいだけ食べれて。スタッフもとても親切。いつも気にかけてくれました。嬉しくてチップ渡さなくてもいいのだけど、奮発しました。
船首の先をイルカたちが楽しそうに群れでリードしたり、ナパリの崖はどこを見ても圧倒される美しさ。本当に行ってよかった。

I'll start with the positive.

The crew is young and enthusiastic. Everyone had smiles and was helpful with the gear.

This is a great excursion for tourists and beginner snorkelers. Great vivews of the Eastern part of the island and a pleasant swim with sea life. The crew teaches everyone how to use the equipment and will help people in the water. They spend about 20 minutes at each site so, for experienced snorkelers, it can be a little dull.

The hotel pickup was on time and the driver was good. The van is new and the ride was smooth.

You will be visiting with Spinner Dolphins. They are small dolphin and swim in pods of 30. The captain knows their favorite spots and will make sure you get to swim with them. By law, you will need to be wearing a life jacket to do this part of the swim. We got to see two pods. It was delightful. This tour company was knowledgeable about dolphins and is conerned with their safety.

We stopped at two more snorkeling locations. The fist stop was a small cove and the second had turtles.

The lunch at the Spinner cafe was good. I had the breakfast burrito and it was tasty and well prepared. The menu is small but the portions are big. The pancakes looked really good.

The reason for my 3 stars is not the quality of the company but an incident I had. The crew should be better trained in basic fist aid. I ended up treating myself with the supplies I keep in my bag. After asking if I was okay, no one helped or checked on my for the rest of the trip.

I would recommend this for people visiting Ohau and beginner snorkelers.

Snorkeling was amazing, saw lots of turtles and other wildlife! Lovely sail after ksnorkeling was real relaxing. Great, fun and friendly crew. Definitely would recommend!

I saw the beauty of Molokini Island on TV and thought I should visit. I was a little worried about getting seasick, but with the guidance of our guide, MIHO, I was able to enjoy the experience until the end. At the point where we could see sea turtles, I was satisfied to see them swimming leisurely up close, but my husband unfortunately missed the chance, so he says he wants to try again. Thank you, MIHO!

テレビでモロキニ島の美しさを見て、行ってみようと思いました。
船酔いしないか少し心配でしたが、ガイドのMIHOさんの案内で最後まで楽しく過ごすことが出来ました。海がめの見えるポイントでは海がめがすぐ近くで悠々と泳いでる姿を見ることができたので満足でしたが、主人はタイミング悪く見ることが出来なかったので、またリベンジしたいと言っています。MIHOさんお世話になりました！

This is my second time at Heaven's Sea. The guide, instructor Yuki, and Ashley were really fun.

Yuki's quick and accurate advice was wonderful! She also adjusted her instructions to suit the Japanese participants.

Thank you for seeing us off at the bus until the end! I will participate again.

２回めの天国の海です
ガイド､インストラクターのゆきさん､アシュリーたちが
本当に楽しい

ゆきさん､の迅速かつ的確なアドバイス！
素晴らしい
きの使い方も日本人に合わせてくれています

帰り道バスを最後まで見送ってくれてありがとうございました！

We participated as a couple, and it was a more exciting cruise than we had imagined. I personally had a great time, but I think those who are prone to motion sickness would have a very painful experience, as it was difficult to stand properly for about three hours. You need to be prepared for that. However, during the cruise, the captain played JD and we enjoyed some great music, which was very nice. Along the way, we encountered dolphins and turtles, and the views of the beautiful islands were stunning. We ended with a toast with champagne at sunset.

夫婦で参加しましたが、想像したよりもエキサイティングなクルーズでした。
まともに立っていられない状態が3時間ほど続き、私自身は楽しかったですが、乗り物いする方は大変苦痛な時間を過ごされると思います。覚悟が必要と思いますが、クルーズ中船長がJDをしてロックが流れてとてもNiceでした。
途中イルカや亀にも出会い、素晴らしい島の景色と最後はサンセットにシャンペンで乾杯です。

Despite the rain and bad weather at the time of departure, the crew made it enjoyable, and I had a great time. I was a bit disappointed that there were fewer types of fish than I expected, so I thought it would be nice if we could go a little further out.

出航時は雨が降り悪天候にも関わらず、乗組員に盛り上げて頂き楽しかったです。思ったより、魚の種類が少なくて残念だったので、もう少し遠出できるといいのかと思いました。

The transparency of the water at Molokini Island is truly amazing. You can see the fish swimming clearly even from the boat.

We had a Japanese guide named Takako, which made it easy to enjoy the tour with peace of mind.

I think the price is a great deal considering breakfast, lunch (the hamburger is delicious!), and non-alcoholic drinks (soft drinks included).

P.S. Due to the winds typical of Maui, there can be some rocking of the boat. You might experience a bit of seasickness...

「モロキニ島」海の透明度が、本当に凄いです。船の上からでも泳いでいる魚が、しっかり見えるほど透きとおってます。
日本人ガイドのタカコさんがいたので、安心してツアーを楽しむ事が出来ました。
朝食、昼食（ハンバーガーが美味い‼︎）、アルコールフリー（ソフトドリンクも）で、この値段はお得だと思います。
PS.マウイ島に付きものの風の影響で、船の揺れがあります。多少の船酔いはあるかも…

I participated in a tour that took us around Kilauea Volcano, over Hilo, along the eastern coastline of the Big Island, and through Waipi'o Valley. It was my first experience in a helicopter, and I was truly moved by the magnificent natural scenery of the Big Island. The pilot provided guidance in both English and Japanese, which made for an immersive and informative experience. I highly recommend this tour to anyone.

キラウエア火山、ヒロの上空、ハワイ島東部の海岸線、ワイピオ渓谷を周遊するコースに参加しました。ヘリコプターも初めての体験で、本当に素晴らしい雄大なハワイ島の自然の景観を目の当たりにして感動のフライトでした。　パイロットは英語と日本語でガイドしていただけたので臨場感たっぷりの説明が聞けて素晴らしい体験ができたと思います。　どなたにもお勧めできるツアーです。

I made a reservation without checking the low tide schedule, and when I arrived, there was no sand, just water everywhere.
As for the snacks... the main wrap was too rich with cheese rolls and cream cheese, making it inedible.
However, I was glad to experience stand-up paddleboarding.
Next time, I will check the low tide and try again.

干潮の時刻を調べず予約してしまい、行ったら砂地はなく、どこも海でした。
軽食は・・・メインのラップが、チーズロールさらにクリームチーズでくどくて食べれず・・・
スタンドアップパドルが体験できたのがよかった。
次は干潮を確認してリベンジします。

I enjoyed the local beauty and fun, along with the cheerful service from the staff. It was also great that we could visit Tantalus Lookout as a free bonus.

現地の美しさ楽しさとともにスタッフの明るい対応など気持ちよく楽しめました。無料特典でタンタレスの丘へ行けたのもよかったです。

I was alone, but I had no problems and enjoyed myself. I was able to see dolphins as soon as we arrived at the spot. I was surprised that I could see so many dolphins up close like that. The scenery felt unreal. The snorkeling at the next location was also wonderful, with the beautiful blue sea and colorful fish swimming everywhere. I even saw a turtle, so I was very satisfied.

一人でしたが、なんの問題もなく楽しめました。イルカは、ポイント(?)に着いたところですぐに見ることが出来ました。あんなに沢山のイルカをあんな間近に見ることが出来るとは思って無かったので驚きました。現実のものとは思えない景色でした。場所を移動してのシュノーケリングも、綺麗なブルーの海に色鮮やかな魚がそこここで泳いでいて、こちらもとても素敵でした。亀も見れたし満足です。

I do not recommend this for people who are prone to seasickness. This is because I had an unexpected experience of getting seasick while snorkeling in the waves, and even though I drank a seasickness prevention drink beforehand, it didn't help at all, making the trip back and forth quite painful and disappointing. I might have been able to prevent it by taking seasickness medication, but I don't have the courage to try again. The spot where I was looking forward to seeing sea turtles was also dependent on the weather, so I couldn't see them. I think it's better for those who get seasick to find a good beach where they can snorkel from there. The guide was a kind person.

船酔いしやすい人にはオススメしません。
なぜなら、シュノーケルをしながら海の波に酔う、と言う予想外な体験をし、船酔い予防のドリンクを事前に飲みましたが、全く効かず、行きも帰りも辛いだけとなってしまい残念でした。
酔い止めの薬を飲めば防げたのかも知れませんが、もう一度トライする勇気はありません。
楽しみにしていた海亀が見れるスポットも、自然の天候次第とのことで見られず、船酔いする方は、シュノーケルが出来る良いビーチを探し、そこからされる方が良いと思います。
ガイドの方は優しい方でした。

The main focus of this tour was on the water slide and jumps on the boat. A good activity for families with young children. The snorkelling was average, as was the snorkelling gear provided. Most people snorkelled only for about 20 minutes before getting back to the boat. We saw a lot of dolphins on the way back though, which was excellent. Overall, a good activity got families. As a young couple, we felt it was a bit too noisy for us.

Seconds after we got to the snorkeling spot, one of the guides emerged from the water holding an octopus, which everyone got to see and interact with. There were probably 7 or 8 sea turtles of all sizes and ages around us the whole time we were in the water, in addition to the tropical fish and moray eels on the reef. It was absolutely incredible.

It was a tour that was definitely worth the early morning wake-up! Although the weather was unfortunately cloudy, a pod of dolphins came right in front of us, and we were able to swim with them. I was moved to see a baby dolphin as well! The snorkeling was fantastic, and we got to see sea turtles up close. Thanks to taking motion sickness medication beforehand, I didn't feel sick at all and had a fun day.

The crew members were wonderful people who always kept us entertained, so I definitely want to participate again. Next time, I’d like to join a manta ray tour on the Big Island!

とても朝は早起きしないといけませんが、その価値は十分にあるツアーでした！
ちょっと天気は残念な曇り空でしたが、
イルカの群れが目の前にたくさんきてくれて、一緒に泳ぐことができました。
赤ちゃんイルカも一緒に見れて感動しました！
シュノーケルではウミガメも間近に見れてとってもよかったです。
事前に酔い止めを飲んでいたおかげか、まったく酔うこともなく楽しい1日を過ごせました。

クルーの方々も常に私達を楽しませてくれる素敵な人達でしたので、ぜひまた参加したいと思います。
今度はハワイ島のマンタのツアーに参加してみたいです！

This is a top day out .with a lovely Hawaii style breekie and lunch .,the best boat lots of room ,very professional done ,in a relaxed and fun filled day ,lots of Dolphins ,highly recommend
