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>

Fun snorkeling even for beginners. 初めてでも楽しいシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: MISO

At 60 years old, my spouse and I participated. It was our first time snorkeling, and I was worried about our age, but we signed up after being encouraged by comments from those with experience. We were the only Japanese participants, but the staff and other participants were kind, so we managed even without understanding English.

We received a Japanese instruction manual in advance for the history and location, as well as how to use the snorkel and goggles, but we left without having time to read it. The snorkeling experience was sufficient with just a brief lesson from the instructor. Apparently, Kealakekua Bay is the best snorkeling spot on the Big Island, and there were so many types of fish and coral that we could have watched them forever. I was surprised by the size of the purple sea urchins and the black sea urchins. We were also able to see dolphins perfectly. The rafting on the military rubber boat was thrilling, and I was very satisfied. We made wonderful memories.

However, you really need to be careful about sunburn. Once you get on the rubber boat, you can't let go of the ropes, so it's essential to apply sunscreen all over your body before boarding. I forgot to apply it on the underside of my feet and ended up with a bad sunburn on my unprotected calves. I brought a cream-type sunscreen from Japan, but all the foreign participants were using spray sunscreen. There are super strong sprays with SPF 100 available, so I recommend buying sunscreen locally. It's a good idea to read the instructions, consider the time needed to apply sunscreen perfectly, and check in early. I would like to participate again when I come to the Big Island.

60歳、夫婦で参加しました。シュノーケリングは初めてだし年齢的にも心配しましたが、参加経験者のコメントに後押しされ申込しました。日本人は我々2人だけでしたが、スタッフも他の参加者の方々も親切にしてくれたので、英語はわからなくても何とかなりました。

歴史や場所について、シュノーケルやメガネの使い方は、日本語の説明書を事前にくれましたが、読む間もなく出発。シュノーケリングは、インストラクターのワンポイントレッスンだけでも十分でした。アラケクア湾はハワイ島で一番のシュノーケリングポイントらしいですが、魚も珊瑚も種類が多く、いつまで見ていても飽きません。ムラサキウニやバフンウニが大きいことにびっくり。イルカもバッチリ見ることができました。軍用ゴムボートでのラフティングもスリルがあり、大満足。楽しい思い出ができました。

しかし、日焼けには本当に注意が必要です。ゴムボートに乗ってからは、ロープから手を離せなくなるので、乗船前に日焼け止めを全身に塗ることが必須です。私は、足の裏側に塗り忘れ失敗しました。シュノーケリング中に、無防備だったふくらはぎがひどく日焼けしてしまいました。私の日焼け止めは日本から持参したクリームタイプですが、外国の参加者は皆さんスプレー式の日焼け止めを使っていました。SPF100という超強力スプレーもあるので、日焼け止めは現地で買うのがお薦めです。説明書を読み、日焼け止めを完璧に塗る時間を考え、早めにチェックインするのが良いですね。また、ハワイ島に来たら参加したいと思います。

Maui to Lanai Snorkel Cruise with Breakfast & Lunch from Lahaina

Quality Activity!

Reviewed by: Alex

This snorkel cruise was such good fun and definitely worth it! The captain took us to the spots where he thought were the best and he took us to another spot when he was informed that the original place was no good, which is impressive to still give us the chance to snorkel. We were fortunate enough to see whales, dolphins and turtles along with the coral and fish. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. They provided floatation devices for anyone who wanted one, and also a snorkel lesson for the first timers. There was a fun slide off the top deck into the water which was very cool! We would definitely recommend this activity to anyone (but make sure you have something for seasickness).

Maui to Lanai Snorkel Cruise with Breakfast & Lunch from Lahaina

Great Quality Trip!

Reviewed by: Isabel B

The Maui to Lanai Snorkel Trip was awesome and definitely value for money! The staff were all super friendly and helpful from the moment we got on board. The boat was lovely with table and chairs on top and a lovely deck around the outside. We really appreciated that the captain took us to another location when the seas were too rough to snorkel in the original place, and we still got in 2 locations to snorkel. The staff were very informative about snorkelling and there was options to take floatation devices out on the water with you, good for first time snorkelers. The lunch was a great BBQ with different meats and options. There was also a slide off the side of the boat which was awesome! Would definitely recommend!

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>

I was able to see sea turtles! ウミガメ見れました!

Reviewed by: Toshi

I participated with my parents, siblings, and niece, a total of six people. My mother said her body hurts when it gets cold, so she didn't leave the boat, but the staff were very considerate, and it seems she enjoyed herself. My niece, father (80 years old), husband, and brother were having fun playing beach volleyball. It was my first experience to see how shallow the sea gets in the middle. We also saw a lot of sea turtles, which were adorable. The snorkeling afterward was in unexpectedly deep water, and it felt a bit cold when we returned to the boat. My niece seemed to really enjoy snorkeling and apparently saw some turtles too; she complained that the time was too short, but for us, it was enough. Haha. Anyway, it was a very fun tour. At the end, the main Japanese staff made a comment that seemed to ask everyone for tips (though it was said in a cheerful way), which felt a bit excessive. Since it seemed everyone gave something, it might have been quite a substantial amount.

両親と、兄弟、姪っ子を連れて6名で参加しました。
母は、冷えると体が痛いといって、ボートから離れませんでしたが、スタッフのみなさんが気遣ってくれて、楽しめたようです。
姪っ子や、父(80歳)夫、弟は、ビーチバレーに興じていました。
海の真ん中が、あんなに浅瀬になるなんて、初めての体験でした。
ウミガメもたくさんみられて、かわいかったです。その後のシュノーケルは、思いのほか深い海で、ボートに戻ると、ちょっと寒かった。
姪っ子は、シュノーケルがとても気に入った様子で、亀もみられたらしく、時間が短すぎ~とぼやいてましたが、われわれにとっては、十分です。笑
とにかく、とても楽しいツアーでした。
最後に、メインの日本人のスタッフが、みんなにチップをせがむような話(明るい言い方でしたが)をしたのは、ちょっと行き過ぎな感じがありました。全員渡してたっぽいので、相当な金額なのではないでしょうか。

The guide was very kind. My mother is 65 years old, and she was able to enjoy snorkeling for the first time in her life. Thanks to the guide, who continuously held my mother's hand and led her to places where she could see the fish. When I participated, there were four of us, and everyone was a beginner. We were very satisfied to see many fish around the coral reef!

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 became my best memory of the trip to Hawaii! ハワイ旅行一番の思い出になりました!

Reviewed by: 4人で参加

I wanted to show my 10-year-old daughter dolphins on the Big Island, so we joined this optional tour. We tried three times and encountered large groups of dolphins each time.

It was my first time snorkeling, but with the support of Daisuke and Yuko, I was able to challenge myself with confidence. We kept encountering groups of dolphins, and I was constantly amazed by the wild dolphins I was seeing for the first time. I became quite exhausted after the second round, and I apologize to the M family who joined us. (I'm sorry, M family...)

Honestly, I didn't expect to see so many dolphins, so I was truly moved! As a bonus, we were lucky enough to see whales before encountering the dolphins, making it a lucky day.

I chose this optional tour based on other people's experiences, and it was definitely the right choice! Daisuke's love for dolphins is really passionate and impressive.

Lastly, thank you to Taka for being a conversation partner for my mother. She didn't go snorkeling, but she said she could see a lot from the boat and had a great time.

Thank you so much!

ハワイ島で10歳の娘にイルカを見せてあげたいと思い、このオプショナルツアーに参加しました。3回トライして、3回とも沢山のイルカの群れに出会うことができました。
シュノーケリング初めてでしたが、ダイスケさん、ユウコさんのサポートで安心してチャレンジできました。次から次へとイルカの群れに遭遇し、初めて見る野生のイルカたちに感動しっぱなしでした。私は2回目終了後グロッキーになってしまい、一緒に参加していたMさん一家にはご迷惑おかけしました。(Mさん一家、すみません…)
正直こんなに沢山のイルカに出会えるとは思ってなかったので、ほんとに感動しました!
おまけに、イルカに遭遇する前にクジラの姿も見ることができて、ラッキーな一日でした。
他の方の体験談を参考にこのオプショナルツアーを選びましたが、大正解でした!ダイスケさんのイルカ愛、ほんとにアツくて、凄いです。
最後にタカさん、母の話し相手役、ありがとうございました。母は潜らなかったのですが、船上からでも沢山見えたようで、楽しかったと言ってました。
本当にありがとうございました。

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>

No manta rays appeared. マンタ現れず

Reviewed by: kazuchann

The Japanese guide spoke brokenly and had difficulty communicating. The participants were just my spouse and another young woman who seemed to speak English well, so there didn't seem to be any issues there. However, even though we were in Hawaii, it wasn't warm after the sun set, and the manta rays didn't appear. We had to float in the water for a long time waiting, and the only item to warm our chilled bodies was a single blanket. There seemed to be hot cocoa available if you didn't get seasick, but I felt nauseous and couldn't accept it. I was invited to join again the next day for free since I couldn't see anything, but I declined. To be honest, I wanted a refund for the participation fee. I felt unwell throughout the trip and couldn't enjoy my meals, and planning the manta night at the beginning of the trip was a mistake. As a professional, they should have considered the sea conditions and the needs of older guests better. The guide was overly excited and it became awkward.

日本語ガイドは片言で会話も不自由、参加者は私たち夫婦ともう一人若い女性でその方は英語が話せるようで問題なさそうでしたが、うねりがあってハワイといっても日が沈むと暖かくはなくマンタが現れないので、海の中に長い時間漂って待、冷えきった身体を温めるアイテムもブランケット一枚。船酔いでなければホットココアがあったようですが、吐き気がして受け付けません。見る事ができなかったので翌日無料で参加できますと誘われたけど、断ってきました。はっきりって参加費返してもらいたいくらいでした。旅行中ずっとグワイが悪くて、食事も美味しく食べる事ができず旅行の最初にマンタナイトを計画したのが間違いでした。プロなんだから海の状況でマンタが現れないとか、高年齢のお客への配慮が足りない。ガイドだけが勝手にキャキャハイテンションでしらけてしまった。

Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We are truly sorry that you were unable to have a satisfying experience despite choosing our service.

Regarding the tour you participated in, we hope you understand that the appearance rate of manta rays can vary depending on the conditions of the day. If you were unable to see them, we offer a complimentary invitation to join again. However, we are very disappointed that you felt unwell and as a result, could not enjoy the manta rays.

We will communicate your feedback regarding the service to the operating company and discuss improvements.

Thank you for taking the time to share your valuable experience with us.

Maui to Lanai Snorkel Cruise with Breakfast & Lunch from Lahaina

Relaxing day on the water

Reviewed by: JoZippinMaui

We woke up early and lined up at the harbor to check in for the cruise. The Captain and crew introduced themselves and explained the rules (three points of contact, breakfast and lunch will be served, dive with a buddy, and snorkeling gear will be provided). Once we boarded, the captain kept us apprised of where we were going, what we were seeing and how long it would take. At one point, we saw a group of whales. The Captain stopped the boat and explained that we were watching a mother whale and her new baby. We were also told that the two males following the mother were fighting for the attention of the mother. We then went on to snorkel in two spots. All gear was provided, including masks, snorkels and floating devices. A couple of crew members stayed in the water to watch the group and to point out interesting fish and turtle populations. Overall, it was a great morning and afternoon. And the food was good, too.

At first, I was a bit worried because it was cloudy, but it cleared up later and was really beautiful! There was a sea turtle that was very friendly with the staff and came really close to the boat; it was so cute!!

Recently, it seems that more people have been bothering sea turtles, and things have become stricter, which is unfortunate.

I thought snorkeling might be a little scary at first, but the moment I saw the underwater world, I completely forgot about my fears! You definitely should try it.

The staff were all fun, the scenery was amazing, and if I get the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to participate again.

By the way, it gets really cold after snorkeling, so it's better to have a thick bath towel and other things. You can borrow a blanket, but I think it's best to bring something that can get wet.

最初ちょっと曇ってるかなぁと不安でしたが途中から晴れてきて、とっても綺麗でした!海亀も、スタッフの方にとても慣れている子がいて、船のすごく近くに来てくれて、すっごくかわいかったです!!
最近海亀にイタズラしたりする人が増えて色々厳しくなったりしているようで、残念です。
シュノーケルも、最初ちょっと怖いかも!って思ってましたが、海の中をみたし瞬間全然気にならなくなりました!

The hamburger lunch we had on the boat was also exceptional. The tour guides were all cheerful and friendly, making it a tour I would definitely want to join again. Even if you feel the tour is a bit pricey, it is absolutely worth the money. If you're unsure, I highly recommend it.

By the way, we were picked up around 9 AM at the Sheraton bus stop and rode the bus for about an hour (for some reason, we had to wait for a long time right after we started). After that, we headed for about 10 minutes by boat to reach the stunning sandbar. After enjoying some light snorkeling practice and volleyball at the sandbar, we moved to the next area (where we will watch sea turtles, and you can encounter so many of them!). We spent about an hour snorkeling over the coral reef (some areas are quite deep!). We dove from the boat and had fun playing with the tour guides as well. This snorkeling experience was a huge hit with my daughter and mother who joined me, and it became an unforgettable and precious experience. I now have more activities I want to participate in when I go to Hawaii!

一言で表すと最高!でした。
サンドバー付近はハリウッド映画のロケにも使用された素晴らしいエリアで、
海が透き通っていて本当に綺麗で、そんな場所に船を停めてシュノーケリングしたり、バレーしたりウミガメウォッチをしたり・・・あんな貴重な体験はなかなかできません。
船上で食べたハンバーガーランチもまた格別でした。
添乗員の方はみなさん陽気で気さくでまたぜひ参加したいと思えるツアーだと思います。
このツアーは少々高いと感じてもお金を払う価値は十分あります。
迷われているのならぜひともおすすめしたいです。
ちなみに、私たちは朝9時頃にシェラトンのバス停でピックアップしてもらい、バスで小一時間ほど揺られ(何故か出発してすぐの場所で長らく待機させられましたが・・・)そこから船で10分ほど向かった先に絶景のサンドバーが現れました。
サンドバーで軽くシュノーケリングの練習やバレーなどを楽しんだあと次のエリアに移動して(そこでウミガメウォッチをしますが、本当にたくさんのウミガメに出会えます!)
サンゴ礁の上を(深さのあるところはかなり深い)1時間ほどシュノーケリングして過ごします!
船からダイブしたりと、添乗員の方とも一緒になって遊んだり楽しみますww
このシュノーケリングが一緒に参加した娘や母にも大好評で忘れられない貴重な体験になったようです。
ハワイに行ったら必ず参加させてもらいたいアクティビティが増えました!!

  • 透き通った海の中にウミガメの姿が・・・

  • 雰囲気がそう思わせたのか絶品だったハンバーガーww

  • 気さくな船長さん

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 amazing even in the pouring rain! 土砂降りでも、最高でした!

Reviewed by: パパさん

It was cloudy at Sandbar, but when the sun peeked through the clouds, the cerulean blue sea looked absolutely beautiful. Truly stunning! The cloudy weather kept the sea temperature down, making it a bit chilly. Later, while having lunch with burgers, it started pouring rain, and I was shivering from the cold. After finishing my meal, I moved to see the sea turtles in the rain. I was thrilled to see many sea turtles and several manta rays at the same time! When we moved on to go snorkeling, I encountered a sea turtle swimming leisurely right in front of me! It was quite cold, but our guide, Gene, provided interesting commentary, making it the best tour where I could fully enjoy both the sea turtles and manta rays!

サンドバーでは曇りでしたが、雲の切れ間から日がさすと、セルリアンブルーの海がとても綺麗でした。本当に美しい!曇りで海水温が上がらず、少し冷たかったです。その後、お昼のバーガーを食べる時に土砂降りになり、寒さで震えました。食べ終わって雨の中、ウミガメを見に移動。たくさんのウミガメと同時に、何匹ものマンタを見ることが出来て大興奮でした。また移動してシュノーケリングに潜ると目の前にウミガメがゆったりと泳いでいるのに遭遇!大分と寒かったですが、ガイドのジーンさんの解説も面白く、ウミガメもマンタも満喫できた最高のツアーでした!

Maui to Lanai Snorkel Cruise with Breakfast & Lunch from Lahaina

Lanai Snorkeling Trip with my wife and kids

Reviewed by: BGalindo

First thing, the boat Captain Lilly and her crew of Cody, Robby, and Robin made us really feel like we were part of there family. They were very attentive to everyone. On the trip besides my wife were our 3 children ages 13, 11, & 7. As we left the harbor and headed out on our very spacious boat, we had some breakfast treats and were fortunate enough to see some whales on the way to Lanai too. As we got halfway across the Bay, Mother nature provided a little wind but the Captain and crew took us to Sweetheart Rock which was very calm and beautiful. After we spent an hour or so there, we headed off to another location and were greeted by a pod of spinner dolphins. That was a great treat as the boat allowed for easy viewing, and as a matter of fact, you felt like you could reach in the water and touch them. As we cruised back to Lahaina we again came upon some more whales, this was truly a magical experience seeing these giant animals up so close. Our final snorkeling spot was just outside of the harbor and we we entered the water, the kids were able swim along with the turtles. The kids were blown away as this was there very first trip the islands and there very first snorkeling trip. As we anchored down, we had had a very nice lunch and plenty of sun and scenery to take in. As we enjoyed the experience, one of the boat engine had trouble so we had to wait for a mechanic to check it out. That was really a blessing, as we had extra time to snorkel and soak in the views. The entire family was actually happy to have the delay as we got some spend extra time on the boat and in the water....We could have stayed all day. The next time we are back Maui, we are going to do it all over again....

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>

Unique to the Big Island of Hawaii. ハワイ島ならでは

Reviewed by: ミイー

I have a fear of heights, so I was hesitant at first, but I'm really glad I participated. I was able to enjoy the ocean, islands, volcanoes, and valleys from angles I had never seen before. Especially around the volcano, I could feel the heat from the ground, which I think is a unique experience of the Big Island. I definitely want to participate again!

高所恐怖症でもあるので最初は迷っていたのですが、参加して本当によかったです。見たことのないアングルで海や島、火山や谷を楽しむことができました。特に火山周辺では足もとから熱も感じることができて、これはハワイ島ならではの体験だったとおもいます。また是非とも参加したいです!

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>

To places we cannot go by ourselves. 自分達では行けない場所へ

Reviewed by: でぶもも

We were taken to points we couldn't reach on our own, and we were able to see various underwater conditions and colorful fish, which was very enjoyable. It's also reassuring that our belongings could be stored in a locked box. If I had to say something, I think it would have been nice to have a little more free time to spend.

自分達では行けないポイントへ連れて行ってもらえ、
色々な海の中の状態や、色とりどりの魚達を見る事ができて
とても楽しかったです。
荷物があっても鍵付きのBOXにしまってもらえるのも安心です。
しいていえば、自由に過ごせる時間が少しでもあったら良かったかなと思いました。

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>

It was fun. 楽しかった

Reviewed by: a.m

During the bus ride, they talked about various things related to Hawaii, so I wasn't bored at all. I only saw a few dolphins, but it was still quite fun. We moved by boat in search of dolphins → spotted dolphins and jumped into the sea → chased and swam after the dolphins!! → moved by boat again → jumped into the sea and swam!! It was quite physically demanding with all that repetition.

バスの移動中から色々とハワイのことをお話してくださったりして退屈しませんでした。イルカはボチボチくらいしか見れませんでしたけど、まぁまぁ楽しかったです。船でイルカを求めて移動→イルカ発見で海へ→ひたすらイルカを追いかけ泳ぐ!!→また船で移動→海へ飛び込み泳ぐ!!の繰り返しで結構、体力的にしんどいです。
