The sandbar is beautiful! サンドバーがキレイ‼︎

Reviewed by: Guri

When we arrived at a port-like place after a bus ride from the hotel meeting point, we were greeted by a lively Japanese lady! We boarded the boat and chose our seats. My friend and I wore swimsuits, T-shirts, shorts, and rash guards, holding beach towels in our hands. After a brief explanation, we encountered a turtle. Then we took some photos and headed to the sandbar!

When we reached our destination, we had to walk down the stairs to the sea, but to our surprise, the waves were up to our chests, so we ended up soaking our T-shirts right from the start, haha! After a short walk, we arrived at the sandbar.
1. Those who can't swim stay at the sandbar.
2. After enjoying the sandbar, we split into those who would go snorkeling.

The sea, sky, and sandbar were so beautiful that it was breathtaking! I can't even count how many photos I took.

When it was time to return, everyone got back on the boat, and while climbing the stairs, the Japanese guide playfully said, "Let's splash!" and we all got drenched, haha! We were completely soaked, but it felt great! If you don't want to get wet, you can simply let them know, and you can avoid it. After that, we had a light snack and got back on the bus!

The air conditioning on the bus was quite cold, so it's best to prepare for the chill.

I had a fulfilling time!

ホテルの待ち合わせ場所からバスに揺られ港のようなところにつくと、威勢の良い日本人のお姉さんがお出迎え！
船に乗り込み各自好きな席へ。
私と友達は、水着にTシャツ、短パン、ラッシュガードを羽織り、バスタオルを手に持ち行きました。
説明を受け数分後、カメと遭遇。
そして写真を撮っていざサンドバーへ！
目的地に着くと、階段を降りて海に行くのですが、濡れないと思いきや、胸のあたりまで波の高さがある中を歩いていくので、最初からTシャツびっしょり笑
そして少し歩いてサンドバーにつきます。
①泳げない人はサンドバーのみ
②サンドバーを楽しんだ後にシュノーケリングに行く人にわかれます。

本当に海と空、サンドバーがキレイすぎて感動！
何枚写真を撮ったことか。

時間になるとみんな船に上がっていくのですが、階段登りながら、日本人のガイドのお姉さんに潮を落としまーすと言われながら、バシャーンと全員水かけ笑 全身びっしょりだけど気持ち良い‼︎
濡れたくない人は、直に伝えれば濡れずに済んでいました。
その後軽食を取り、バスに乗ります！
このバスの時が冷房が効いていて寒いので、しっかり寒さ対策をした方が良いです。

充実した時間を過ごすことができました‼︎

ドルフィン・クエスト　イルカと触れ合えるプログラムが充実！キッズ向けプログラム＜ヒルトン・ワイコロア・ビレッジ内＞

Dolphins are cute. イルカ可愛い

Reviewed by: サマー

My second-grade daughter participated and was very happy, but there was an explanation in English until we could interact with the dolphins. It felt more like a discussion than an explanation. Also, the pool where we could interact with the dolphins seemed a bit deep, which was a bit tough for my short daughter.

小学2年の娘が参加しました喜んでおりましたがイルカと触れ合えるまで英語での説明がありました。説明というよりもディスカッションみたいでした。あとイルカと触れ合えるプールが少し深さがあるようで、背の低い娘にはちょっとしんどそうでした。

プライベートチャーター　ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー！GoProレンタルあり＜午前／日本語ガイド＞

It was fun! 楽しかったです！

Reviewed by: YASU

I participated in a tour with Mr. Nawata on July 23. For three years, I have wanted to join a dolphin tour every time I go to Hawaii, and I finally got the chance to participate.

At first, there were many other tour boats out at sea, and I thought the dolphins might avoid our boat, making it hard to see them. However, we entered the water for practice. After that, Mr. Nawata and the captain diligently searched for the best spots where the dolphins were, repeatedly going in and out of the water and moving the boat. In the second half, we were able to swim right next to a pod of dolphins! It was so moving!

I was impressed not only by the dolphins but also by Mr. Nawata and the captain's efforts to ensure that every participant got to see the dolphins up close. I realized I was more exhausted than I expected, which made me feel my age and the decline in my stamina. However, the potato chips we had after returning to the harbor were incredibly delicious (laughs).

It was a tour that left me deeply moved by the dolphins, the staff, and the Hawaiian sea. I would love to participate again next year if I can.

7/23に繩田さん同行のツアーに参加しました。
ハワイに行く度にイルカツアーに参加したいと思って早3年、やっと参加することができました。
前半は他のツアーの船が多く海に出ておりこれではイルカがツアーの船を避けてしまいなかなか見れないかもと思いましたが、とりあえず練習の為1回目の海に入りました。その後繩田さんとキャプテンが一生懸命イルカがいるベストポイントを探し回って下さり、何回か海へ入ってはあがって船で移動を繰り返し後半はイルカの群れが泳いでるそばで一緒に泳げました！感動です！
イルカはもちろんですが、参加者一人一人に気を使いなんとか参加者全員にイルカを間近で見せてあげたいという繩田さんとキャプテンの気持ちにも感動しました。
思ったより体力を消耗しあらためて体力の衰えと歳を感じてしまいましたが、その分港に戻った後頂いたポテチが最高においしかった（笑）
イルカとスタッフとハワイの海に感動した大満足のツアーでした。また来年できたら参加したいと思います。

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkeling Tour & BBQ Lunch with Waikiki Pickup

Thank you for a wonderful time!

Reviewed by: Masumi

Hi,

I had such an amazing time on their cruise!! First of all, the staff were all amazing. They were funny, welcoming, and most importantly, love their job! They really went out of their way to ensure that we had a fantastic time! And, the food was amazing! Maybe it's about eating on the boat after swimming, but regardless, it was really good!

This cruise also gives us ample time to really explore the area... it goes to sandbar, a place where green turtles gather, and finally an hour of snorkeling by the reef. They were all amazing experiences, and I would say that it is a MUST for anyone traveling to Hawaii!

Thank you, Captain Bob and his crew!

Since it was lunchtime, I thought the depth would be about knee-high, and although there was only a small amount of sand, it was definitely there! I think it's best to check the timing, and also, since it can get murky, I believe not splashing around will help you take nicer photos!

Wonderful experience 素晴らしい体験

Reviewed by: ももちゃん

I was very anxious because I can't swim. I couldn't enjoy snorkeling at Hanauma Bay the day before because I can't swim. However, snorkeling in water that was deep enough that I couldn't touch the bottom allowed me to float and see beautiful fish, making it a life-changing experience. It's okay even if you can't swim. I think you can have a wonderful experience. If I have the opportunity, I would definitely like to participate again.

私は、泳げないのでとても不安でした。前日ハナウマ湾でのシュノーケルも泳げないため楽しむことができませんでした。でも、足のつかないほどの深さでのシュノーケルは、うくことができ、綺麗な魚も見ることが出来人生観が変わるほどの体験をすることが出来ました。泳げない人でも大丈夫。素晴らしい経験が出来ると思います。機会があれば、また是非参加したいです。

Maui to Lanai Snorkel Cruise with Breakfast & Lunch from Lahaina

Amazing snorkeling experience with 5 star service!

Reviewed by: iKhan

My family and I booked a snorkeling adventure to Lanai and we had an amazing time. The boat ride to Lanai was relaxing and the staff did a phenomenal job accommodating everyone on the boat. Snorkeling gear was provided as well as breakfast and a delicious BBQ lunch that they grilled right on the boat. The staff made sure that everyone was comfortable and my sister, who is not a strong swimmer, was given many flotation devices and she didn't miss out one bit. We saw so many colorful fishes and the reefs were very vibrant and healthy. Anyone who visits Maui MUST book a snorkeling trip to Lanai which these guys. Will definitely come back and do it again!!!!!

Simply beautiful! とにかくキレイ！の一言です

Reviewed by: えみ。

"It wasn't the oldest company that boasts 'we dock at the shallowest spot!' but it was more than enough!

That said, if you go on an afternoon trip without checking the tide times, you might be a bit dissatisfied, so I think it's better to check the best dates and times within your schedule before making a reservation.

The buses for the round trip are a mix of nationalities, but there are two boats, one with English and the other with Japanese. The man guiding us on the bus spoke only in English, but he spoke very slowly and clearly, so even I, who can't hold a conversation, understood about half of it! On the boat, a Japanese guide provided all the explanations, which was reassuring.

Personally, what I regretted was that after coming up from snorkeling, they rinse you off with fresh water, but even though I was trying to keep my hair dry, the moment I stepped up the stairs, I got drenched from head to toe. It felt nice though..."

「一番浅いところに着岸します！」がウリの老舗さんでは
ありませんでしたが、十分でした！

とはいえ、満潮・干潮調べずに午後便とかで行ってしまったら
ちょっと不満だったでしょうから、
ちゃんと日程の中でベストな日時をチェックして申込みをされたほうが良いと思います。

行き帰りのバスは多国籍混載ですが、
船は2つで、片方が英語・片方が日本語と分かれていました。
バスでの案内をしてくれるおじさんはすべて英語ですが、
すごーくゆっくり、わかりやすい英語を話してくれるので、
会話のできない私でも半分くらいはわかりました！
船では日本人ガイドさんがすべての説明をしてくれるので安心です。

個人的に「しまったー」だったのが、
シュノーケルからあがった後、真水をかけてくれるんですが
髪の毛ぬらさないようにしてたのに
階段からあがった瞬間頭から「ざばー」でした。

It seems that Captain Bruce's tour is famous... キャプテンブルースのツアーが有名なようですが…

Reviewed by: Ina

It didn't matter at all!!
Before going, I wondered if Captain Bruce would be good... but in the end, the boat docked right next to us, and the destination was nature!
As the name "Sand Bar" suggests, the land stretches wide and flat, so there's no way you can't land.
(There may be times when there’s no land due to high tide, but I think that applies to any tour.)

Anyway, I'm so glad I went on this tour!
The sea was simply beautiful!!
We were blessed with great weather and saw a wonderful gradient!
It felt like I could walk forever.
And no matter how far I went, I wasn't stopped or called back; it was an incredibly free tour, and I was very satisfied!

The crew was also wonderful,
with a perfect Japanese-speaking lady who taught us about the mainland U.S. and a handsome captain with excellent photo services!
After asking the captain for tips on how to meet sea turtles and going snorkeling, I was able to swim alone with a large elder turtle covered in moss!!
I occasionally see turtles while diving, but I've never seen one that big before!! It was so moving!!
Thank you, Captain!

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

関係ありませんでした！！

ハワイ島　オーシャンラフティング＆シュノーケルリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／食事付き＞

I was thrilled to see as many as 100 dolphins up close! 100頭ものイルカを間近に見られ、大興奮！！

Reviewed by: jaja

I participated with my husband and our first-grade daughter, making it a family of three. We stayed at the Marriott Hotel in Waikoloa and arrived in just under 40 minutes. We were told to look for the blue roof of the Honokohau Marina, and as soon as we entered the marina, we found several shops with blue roofs lined up on the right side. The tour shop was easily identifiable with the sign that read "CAPTAIN ZODIAC" (it was the shop at the far right).

When we joined, there were six of us in total: our family of three and three American girls. With Captain Colin and his assistant Paul, we set off with a total of eight people! First, we sped across the surface of the sea. The waves were relatively calm, so I didn’t experience the seasickness I was worried about; instead, it felt refreshing with the wind in my face!

After about five minutes of racing across the water, the boat suddenly slowed down. Captain Colin was looking around, and just as I was wondering what was happening, he shouted, "Dolphins!" When I looked in the direction he was pointing, I saw several dorsal fins surfacing and diving. There were dolphins jumping like in an aquarium, and even a baby dolphin! My daughter was so excited, shouting, "Dolphin! Dolphin!"

At that point, the captain stopped the boat and began preparing the snorkeling gear. My daughter was quite nervous since it was her first time snorkeling and going out to deep water on a boat. Honestly, I thought, "Snorkeling in such deep water?! No way!" But it seemed her curiosity about the wild dolphins won out. She put on her new snorkeling set (which we brought, although they provide rentals) and borrowed a long foam noodle from the captain to use as a float.

Then, with her dad holding her hand, she peered into the water and saw a school of dolphins swimming right below us. Overjoyed, she squealed, "Yay! Dolphins!" and pointed excitedly. I was also amazed; I never expected to see so many dolphins up close.

We then changed locations and enjoyed a total of three dolphin swims.

After that, we had about 30 minutes of free snorkeling in Kealakekua Bay. My daughter was scared of the urchins and almost returned to the boat, but when Captain Colin threw some cookies into the water, the fish came close, and she was thrilled. Thanks to that, she was able to continue snorkeling.

I was worried that my daughter might end up scared and not able to do anything during the tour, but thanks to Captain Colin's thoughtfulness and the dolphins and fish, both my daughter and husband had a great time!

I definitely want to participate again the next time we come to the Big Island.

P.S.
1. For those who will be participating, it might be a good idea to hand the captain your camera and ask him to take pictures while snorkeling.
2. I recommend reapplying sunscreen during the trip. Even though I thought I had applied a lot, I ended up getting really sunburned (crying).

夫と小1の娘と一緒に３人で参加しました。
ワイコロアのマリオットホテルに滞在しており、40分弱で到着しました。
ホノコハウマリーナの青い屋根が目印とのことでしたが、マリーナの入り口入ってすぐの右手側に、青い屋根の何軒かのお店が長屋のように連なっていました。このツアーのお店は、看板に「CAPTAIN　ZODIAC」と書いてあるのですぐにわかりました。（向かって一番右端のお店でした）

私たちが参加した時は、私たち家族３人とAmericanGirls３人の計６人。そこに、キャプテンコリンと、助手の？ポールを合わせて８名で出発！
まずは、ビュンビュン飛ぶように海面を走ります。比較的波がなく海面が穏やかだったので、懸念していた船酔いにはならず、逆に風を受けて爽快でした！

５分ほど？海面を走り急にボートがゆっくりに。。キャプテンコリンが何やら周りを見回しています。？？と思っていると、「ドルフィン！」と叫ぶので指さす方を見ると、何頭もの背びれが浮かんだり沈んだり。そのうち、水族館のようにクルリとジャンプをするイルカがいたり、ベビーイルカがいたり、娘も「イルカさん！イルカさん！」と大興奮。

そこで、キャプテンがボートを停め、シュノーケルギアを準備し始めました。娘は、シュノーケルも初めて、ボートで深い海に行くのも初めてということでかなり緊張をしており、正直「こんなに深い場所でシュノーケル?!無理だよーー」と思いましたが、娘は野生のイルカのジャンプを見て好奇心が勝った模様。新しいMyシュノーケルセット（貸してもらえますが、私たちは持参しました）を装着し、キャプテンに浮き輪代わりにヌードルというウレタン製の細長い棒を借りて、プカプカ。
その後、パパに手を引いて貰い海を覗き込むと、真下にイルカたちの群れが泳いでいます。歓喜のあまり海の中で「キャーキャ－イルカーーー！！」と指をさして喜ぶ娘。
私も、こんなに沢山のイルカ達がこんなに間近に見られるとは思ってもいなかったので、大感激でした。
その後場所を変え、計３回ドルフィンスイムを楽しみました。

その後はケアラケクア湾で３０分ほど自由にシュノーケル。娘はガンガゼを怖がり、ボートに帰りかけましたが、キャプテンコリンがクッキーを持ってきて海に投げると、近くまで魚が寄ってきてくれて大喜び。おかげでシュノーケルを続行することができました。

娘が怖がって何もできずに終わったらどうしよう？？と思いながらツアーを申し込みましたが、キャプテンコリンの気遣いとイルカや魚たちのおかげで娘・パパともども楽しむことができました！

次回ハワイ島に来た時にも是非参加したいです。

追記：
①これから参加される方は、シュノーケル時にキャプテンにカメラを渡し、撮影をお願いすると良いかもしれません。
②日焼け止めを途中で塗りなおすことをオススメします。かなり塗りたくって参加したはずなのに、真っっ黒に焼けてしまいました（泣）

This is my fourth time at Heaven's Ocean, and it was the best weather I've experienced so far, which made it a lot of fun!

ハワイ島　オーシャンラフティング＆シュノーケルリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／食事付き＞

My first-grade daughter was thrilled! We swam with about 100 dolphins. 小1の娘も大喜び！100頭くらいのイルカと泳ぎました。

Reviewed by: Kazy

We zoomed along in Captain Colin's rubber boat and first headed to the dolphin swimming spot. The ride was thrilling, with sharp turns that felt like a roller coaster, and we had a blast screaming with excitement.

Once we arrived, after a brief explanation, we jumped into the sea! There were over 100 dolphins swimming around. My first-grade daughter, who initially said, "I'm scared!" was soon cheering as she snorkeled among the dolphins.

This was my daughter's first snorkeling experience during our trip to Hawaii. She had only practiced snorkeling on the beach the day before, so I was worried. However, the dynamic sight of dolphins swimming right beneath her made her forget her fear, and she exclaimed, "I want to swim again!" In the end, she enjoyed dolphin swimming three times.

While it wasn't like the experiences at some hotels where you "swim with dolphins while touching them," the experience of swimming with dolphins in their natural habitat was incredibly exciting.

After that, we thrillingly moved to Kealakekua Bay, where we enjoyed a leisurely snorkeling session while observing tropical fish. We saw butterflyfish, angelfish, and parrotfish, and both my wife and daughter had a great time snorkeling.

My daughter seemed a bit scared of the sea urchins, but Captain Colin noticed her unease and joined her for snorkeling. He kindly pointed out fish to her and taught her the names of the fish in Hawaii, which helped her feel more at ease. As her fear faded, she was able to enjoy herself freely.

Unfortunately, we didn't spot any whales, but we did see little fish jumping around, likely because the whales were nearby. They said the whales were somewhere beneath the surface within a two-knot range.

On the way back, he shared stories about Pele along the coastline.

He explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, even for someone with my middle school-level English, and he was very kind to the children, which made me feel really reassured.

I truly felt that we had participated in a wonderful tour.

残念ながらクジラを目撃することはできませんでしたが、クジラが近くにいるせいで

接してくれるので本当に安心です。

When we participated, there were about 10 participants in total. We all boarded one rubber boat and set off. My husband and I were the only Japanese people there, so all the communication and small talk were in English.

When I heard "rafting," I had imagined something like river rafting using a raft, but it seems I was mistaken. In reality, we sat on the edge of the boat (without wearing life jackets) and raced across the ocean at high speed. As someone who is not good with thrill rides, I was screaming my head off... Seeing me, the other foreigners burst into laughter.

It looked refreshing and enjoyable to race through the blue sea. Everyone except me... Following the advice to "just look at the sky and the distant scenery," I did gaze around, and while it was indeed beautiful, my fear overwhelmed all other emotions, and I reached my limit within 30 minutes.

When I told the captain, "I can't do this anymore," he asked, "There are still about 4 hours left!? Can you hang in there?" I couldn't bear the thought of enduring this fear for another 4 hours, so I asked to be dropped off nearby and retired... My time on the boat was just 40 minutes. I wanted to try snorkeling too, but I thought it would be rude to push myself and make my fellow passengers uncomfortable, so I gave up. My husband, who was enjoying himself, also got off with me, so I felt really sorry for him. The captain was very kind and arranged a taxi for us to the shore. All the fellow passengers were warm and kind, even though we stopped off early.

Although I retired, I got to see many wild dolphins up close, and the view of the Big Island while racing across the ocean was truly wonderful. It also became a story for our honeymoon.

If you're looking for thrills and want to enjoy the ocean around the Big Island, I definitely recommend it. However, for those who are not good with thrill rides or are easily scared, it might be a bit too intense.

私達が参加した時は、参加者が総勢10名ほどでした。
みんなでひとつのゴムボートに乗って出発します。
日本人は私達夫婦のみでした。なので、伝達事項や雑談なども全て英語でした。

「ラフティング」と聞いて、私はてっきりラフトを使った川下りのようなものをイメージしていたのですが、どうやら認識が間違っていたようでした。。
実際は、ボートのフチに座り(ライフジャケットも着用しません)、超高速で海を駆けまわるというものでした。
絶叫マシーンなどの類が大の苦手な私、一人大絶叫…。
そんな私を見て、他の外国人の皆様、爆笑…。笑

風を切って青い海を走るのは、爽快で気持ち良さそうでした。
私以外は…。
「空や遠く景色を見ていれば大丈夫だよ」というアドバイスに従い眺めていましたが、確かに本当に美しかったのですが、恐怖が全ての感情を占めていた私は開始30分で限界に達していました。

「もう無理です」とキャプテンに申し出ると、「あと4時間近くあるよ！？頑張れる？」と聞かれたので、この恐怖をあと4時間続けるのは耐えられなかったので、近くの沖で降ろしてもらってリタイアしました…。
乗船時間、わずか40分…。
シュノーケルもやりたかったけど、無理して体調不良になって同船者の皆様に迷惑を掛けたら申し訳ないと思い、断念しました。
楽しんでいた夫も一緒に降りてもらったので、夫にも申し訳ない気持ちでいっぱいでした。
キャプテンの方には沖までタクシーを手配していただいたりと、本当に良くしていただきました。
同船者の皆様も、途中で沖に寄ったにも関わらず温かく見送って下さって、優しい方ばかりでした。

リタイアしたけれど、たくさんの野生イルカを間近で見られたし、海を走りながら臨むハワイ島の景色は本当に素晴らしかったです。
新婚旅行のネタのひとつにもなったし。笑

スリルと、ハワイ島の海を楽しみたい方は、ぜひおすすめです。
ただ、絶叫マシーンが苦手な方、怖がりな方には、ちょっとスリルがきついかもしれません。

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

Holokai Catamaran Turtle Canyon Snorkel Sail

Reviewed by: Judy Z

We had a fantastic time...beautiful scenery and great guides (Jake and McCuddy (spelling?)). Swam with the fish and a bunch of turtles and got great pics. Too bad my husband and I got sick after the snorkeling adventure. It had nothing to do with them, I guess we're just not cut out for boating, but they guides were great and took it all in stride. We did our best to still enjoy the ride back. Thanks for a great morning!

I was satisfied with everything: the scenery, the crew's service, the hamburgers, and the safety measures during snorkeling. I was also happy to see several turtles coming up for air. My first time in Hawaii has become a wonderful memory.

景色・船員のサービス・ハンバーガ・シュノーケルの際の安全対策等、全てに満足でした。息継ぎをしに来たカメを何匹も見れたことも嬉しい。初めてのハワイ　良い思い出となりました。

The children (a 4th grader, a 2nd grader, and a 3-year-old) were able to enjoy themselves thoroughly. The snorkeling guide was very kind, and it seems the kids had a great time as well.

子供(小学生4年と2年、3歳)で十分楽しむことができました。シュノーケルもガイドの方が親切に接してくれて、子供たちも楽しめたようです。

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

If you're a newbie, don't worry, it's easy!!

Reviewed by: JLondon

Can I give 10 stars? If you're a newbie, don't worry, it's easy!!! I've never done snorkeling before and my wife is afraid of water...HELLO!!! We're giving this place 5 stars!!! That should tell you that this is the go-to place on Maui for snorkeling. We were in line for registration and a couple before us who have done snorkeling many times before were ranting and raving about the exceptional amenities on this adventure. It's a class-act all the way, from start to finish. Food, alcohol, corrective lens goggles, floatation devices...the list goes on and on. I can't put into words the level of excellence that this company delivers from start to finish. EVERY element is addressed and for two newbies who never did this kind of thing and are totally out of our comfort zone, this should give you a clue as to the totality of excellence that this company delivers.

Sea turtle watching cruise, including lunch. ウミガメウォッチングクルーズ、ランチ付

Reviewed by: hachi

In July, I participated in a turtle watching cruise tour that included lunch. In the morning, we relaxed at a sandbar, had lunch, watched the turtles, and then went snorkeling. There were people who spoke Japanese, so I was able to enjoy a fun time without worry.

However, there was no place to change, so I felt like I had to get on the bus while still wet. It might be a good idea to bring extra towels and be careful not to catch a cold on the bus.

7月にウミガメウォッチングクルーズランチ付のツアーに参加しました。
午前中は、サンドバーでのんびりし、ランチを挟んでウミガメを見て、その後シュノーケリングをしました。日本語を話せる人もいたし、安心して楽しい時間を過ごせました。

ただ、着替える場所がないため、帰りのバスは濡れたまま乗る感じでした。
多めにタオルをもって、バスの中で風邪をひかないよう気を付けたほうがいいかもしれません。

Unfortunately, the weather is not great... あいにくのお天気・・・

Reviewed by: けいちゃん

This time, I checked the tide schedule in advance and made a reservation.

On the day of the trip, unfortunately, the weather was terrible with heavy rain... We boarded the boat and first went to see the sea turtles. The sandbar we saw on the way to see the sea turtles was very beautiful. We were able to see several sea turtles, which was great.

After that, we headed to the sandbar... Huh?? The part of the sandbar that was above the water was much narrower than what we saw on the way to see the turtles??? While we were looking at the sea turtles, the tide came in over time, and we couldn't see the sandbar as much as we had hoped. On top of that, the weather was unfortunate...

I checked the tide schedule and chose a day with a big tide, but I learned that the timing of low tide is also very important. I hope there will be a day when I can try again.

今回、予め潮順をみて申込みました。

当日は、あいにくのお天気でどしゃぶり・・・
船に乗り、最初にウミガメを見に行きました。
ウミガメを見に行く際に見えたサンドバーは、とても綺麗に見えました。
ウミガメは、何匹も見えてとても良かったです。

その後、サンドバーへ。。。
あれれ？？カメを見に行く途中に見えたサンドバーよりもかなり海面に出ている部分が狭くなっている？？？
ウミガメを先に見に行っている間に、時間の経過とともに潮が満ちてきて思っていたほどのサンドバーを見ることができませんでした。
そのうえあいにくのお天気・・・

潮順を見て、大潮の日を選んで申し込みましたが、やはり干潮の時間もとても大事なことを知りました。
いつかまたリベンジできる日があるといいです。

Great family fun for all ages.

What a fun day. The crew was courteous and intent on everyone having fun. There were families on our trip with very young children and some grandparents on board too. Everyone was in the water whether snokling, scub or snuba diving or just relaxing in tubes. I also didn't hear any complaints about the food. Service was very efficient. Everyone was satisfied!!

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング　日本語ガイドが海の世界へご案内＜シュノーケルセット／終日＞

I had little experience with snorkeling, but once I put on the fins, my worries quickly disappeared. With Dan in the red hat leading the way and Chie watching over us at the back, I felt safe swimming. They helped push me through the waves when I was struggling to move forward. I was able to see not only turtles but also a variety of colorful fish, and even an eel! The hour passed by in no time, and I wished I could have stayed in the water a bit longer. Thank you for such a fun experience!

　シュノーケルの経験が少ない中、本格的にフィンをつけての体験でしたが、そんな心配はすぐなくなりました。赤い帽子のダンさんを先頭にちえさんが最後でしっかり見守ってくれていたので安心して泳ぐことがでしました。波があってなかなか進めずにいた私を力強く押してくれたので助かりました。かめはもちろん色とりどりの魚たちおまけにうつぼさんまで見ることができました。1時間はあっという間で、もう少し入っていたかったと思えるほど楽しい時間でしたありがとうございました。
