Hawaii Nautical 2-Hour Waikiki Turtle Snorkel Sail - Morning & Afternoon Tours [Apr-Nov]

AWESOME

Reviewed by: Nicolle

We had so much fun on this snorkel sail. Actually the day before the sail was supposed to happen the company called and said there was an issue with the boat and that that particular cruise was not going to be running that day. I had no other day that we could do it as it was a birthday surprise for my friend and our schedules were way too busy after that day to fit it in. They quickly offered to change our reservation for the dolphin snorkel sail that same day with no charge to us. It worked out perfect! The crew was totally awesome and we got to snorkel so close to dolphins. THe entire vibe on the boat was so much fun with jokes from the crew and their service was great. AMazing lunch and breakfast. I would definitely go again!

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 a wonderful time! ☆ 素晴らしい時間でした☆

Reviewed by: Eiko

On August 9th, my family of three, including my 9-year-old son, participated in the dolphin tour, which was the main highlight of our trip. We were worried that the sea might be difficult due to the hurricane's impact, but we were able to participate safely by shifting our schedule by one day.

Our guide, Daisuke, was easy to talk to from the very first impression, and the ride to the location felt like no time at all! Each of his words was heartfelt, making for a truly enriching experience.

It was a miracle that we were able to set sail that day, and on top of that, we encountered a pod of nearly 150-200 dolphins. I was genuinely moved when I saw the lively wild dolphins up close, including their cheerful calls, parents with babies, and playful youngsters. The view of the deep blue sea and the mountains of the Big Island of Hawaii was also incredibly beautiful.

That same night, my son and I participated in the manta ray tour. He eagerly shared how great it was.

I’m really glad we were able to join this tour after various coincidences! I definitely want to come back to the Big Island and this dolphin tour again. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

8月9日、9歳の息子を含む家族3人で参加しました。
今回の旅のメインだった、イルカツアー。
ハリケーンの影響で、海は難しいかなと心配しましたが、日程を1日ずらして無事に参加することができました。

ガイドのダイスケさんは、第1印象から話しやすくて、送迎の道中もあっという間！一つ一つの言葉に心がこもっていて、とても濃い素敵な時間でした☆

この日は出航できただけでも奇跡、その上、イルカには150-200頭近くの群れと出逢えました。元気な鳴き声、赤ちゃん連れの親子、じゃれあう子供たち、野生のイルカの生き生きした姿を間近に見られた時は本当に感動しました。
船からの真っ青な海、山を抱いたハワイ島の景色もとてもきれいでした。

同日夜のマンタにも、父子が参加。
こちらも良かったと、息子が一生懸命様子を話してくれました。

いろいろな偶然を経て、今回のツアーに参加できて本当に良かったです！
ハワイ島、そして、このイルカツアーにもまたぜひ来たいと思います☆
素晴らしい体験をありがとうございました。

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＞

Sandbar サンドバー

Reviewed by: ハワイ大好きさん

Originally, I wanted to join a private charter boat tour, but I couldn't make a reservation, so I participated in this tour instead. However, the boat for this tour was larger, which meant it had a restroom and we could take breaks during snorkeling. Since I was with my children, I ended up thinking it was a good choice. For lunch, I enjoyed a hamburger that was grilled on the boat, customized with my favorite toppings. The burger I made was delicious, and I was very satisfied. The scenery was, of course, amazing, and swimming with sea turtles made it the best tour ever.

本当は、貸し切りのチャーター船ツアーで参加したかったんですが、予約出来ずこちらのツアーで参加させて頂きました。
でも、こちらのツアーの船の方が、大きい船だったので、トイレもあり、シュノーケリングの途中でも、休憩出来たりと、子供達との参加だったので、結果、良かったなと思いました。
お昼ご飯には、船上で焼いてくれたハンバーグを自分の好みの具と一緒に挟んで頂きました。
自分で、作ったハンバーガー美味しくて大満足でした。
景色は、もちろん、海ガメと一緒に泳げたりと最高のツアーでした。

It's fun even with kids. 子連れでも楽しい

Reviewed by: korotsuma

We signed up as a family of four with our 4-year-old and 7-year-old children. At Angel's Beach, the water was shallow enough for our 4-year-old to enjoy safely. The clarity of the seawater was so remarkable that it showed clearly in our phone photos.

The BBQ hamburgers for lunch were well-seasoned, and even our picky eaters enjoyed them, happily declaring them delicious!

Snorkeling took place in quite deep water, but the kids quickly got used to their life jackets, which they were initially scared of, and ended up having a great time. We were also able to see several sea turtles, which was very satisfying.

Since our guide was Japanese, the explanations were very clear, and they provided thorough information about the ocean, which can be intimidating. This was our first time in Hawaii, and we are glad we signed up for this experience.

４歳と７歳の子供と、夫婦の４人で申し込みしました。
天使の海では、４歳の子供でも足のつく位の深さで、十分に楽しめました。
海水の綺麗さは、携帯の写真で撮ってもはっきりわかるほどです。
昼食のBBQハンバーグも、ハンバーグにしっかり味がついていて、ソースなどの好き嫌いの多い子供も、美味しい！と喜んで食べていました。
シュノーケリングは、とても深い所で行われましたが、初めてつけたライフジャケットで、初めは怯えていた子供達もすぐに慣れて、楽しむことが出来ました。
ウミガメも何匹も見ることが出来て、大満足です。
案内の方が日本人の方だったので、とても分かりやすく、怖い海のこともしっかりと説明してくれました。
初めてのハワイでしたが、申し込んで良かったです。

I took my sixth grader with me.

I've been on the Heaven's Sea tour before, but if you want to relax, I think this tour is better! My child seemed to really enjoy snorkeling ^o^

For children under kindergarten age, if they are not very comfortable in the water, snorkeling might be scary and difficult. There were some kids crying, and we also cried when we were little.

It seems that snorkeling in areas where they can't touch the bottom feels frightening.

小学6年生を連れて行きました。

天国の海ツアーにも行ったことがありますが、のんびりしたいのであれば、こちらのツアーの方が良いと思います！
子供はシュノーケリングがとても楽しかったようです^o^

幼稚園以下のお子さんだと、相当水に慣れていないとシュノーケリングは怖くて無理かもしれません。
泣いている子がいましたし、うちも小さい頃は同じように泣いていました。

足が届かないところでシュノーケリングをするのが恐怖に感じるようです。

カイルアビーチ送迎シャトルサービス　嬉しい5時間滞在！ビーチグッズなど各種レンタル付き＜日本語スタッフ／ランチ付＞

It was a beautiful sea! きれいな海でした！

Reviewed by: 初ハワイ人

I participated on 8/11 because I heard that there are fewer people on Mondays than on Sundays. That said, there were still quite a few people... but definitely fewer than at Waikiki Beach.

Upon arrival, we received about 20 minutes of explanation regarding lockers, rental equipment, and lunch, and then we were free to explore. The staff was fluent in Japanese, friendly, and had a great attitude, which made for a pleasant experience.

This time, I went with the purpose of enjoying the ocean, so I didn't go into town. (On a different day, I joined a tour to the North Shore and Kailua, where I did some shopping and had Kimo's pancakes.) If you're considering shopping in town, you might find that there's not enough time.

I thought about renting a bike to go to Lanikai Beach, but it became a bit of a hassle, so I ended up staying at Kailua Beach the whole time. However, I didn't have any trouble filling my time; I took naps on the sandy beach and walked along the coast.

For lunch, I had a meat plate lunch. It was simple, but the meat was tender and delicious!

日曜より月曜のほうが人が少ないという噂だったので、8/11に参加しました。
とはいえ、やはりだいぶ人はいましたが・・・。
ワイキキビーチよりは断然少なかったです。

現地に到着、ロッカーや貸出器具、昼食について20分ほど説明を受け、すぐに自由行動。対応スタッフは日本語がペラペラで愛想もノリも良く、気持ちのいい対応でした。

今回は海を目的に行ったので、街には行きませんでした。
（別日に、ノースショア＆カイルアのツアーに参加し、そちらで買い物やキモズのパンケーキを食べました。）
街で買い物も、と考えると、少し時間がたりないかもしれません。

自転車を借りてラニカイビーチまで行こうかとも思ったのですが、ちょっと面倒になり、結局ずっとカイルアビーチにいました、でも砂浜で昼寝をしたり、海岸をずっと歩いて行ってみたり・・・時間を持て余すことは無かったです。

お昼はお肉のプレートランチにしました。
シンプルですが、お肉が柔らかくておいしかった！

I think the overall experience was very good. The sea was beautiful, and it wasn't inconvenient at all even though I couldn't speak English. However, the waiting times were too long, and since it was a vacation, I hope there will be less time spent just waiting around doing nothing. If it weren't for that, I would be very satisfied.

I was able to meet a lot of people. たくさん会えました

Reviewed by: まらさだ

The captain is really good at finding the surface of the sea where the dolphins are! When we spotted them, we jumped in, and after the group swam away, we moved the boat... we repeated this three times. It was truly moving. We even saw baby dolphins and dolphins playing and spinning around.

After that, we moved again to meet the sea turtles, but unfortunately, there were only tropical fish... Still, we enjoyed seeing pufferfish, horse mackerel, and colorful fish. It's nature, so it can't be helped! I'm glad we got to see them at the North Shore beach (laughs).

On the way back, we waited at the port for about an hour for the shuttle bus to arrive, possibly because the road was congested. But thanks to that, all our swimsuits dried, and we were able to take a nap in the shade and have lunch at a nearby cafeteria. I recommend the lunch at the blue building! However, for those who were in a hurry, it must have been a frustrating hour...

Next, I might challenge myself to university!

とにかく船長が、イルカのいる海面を見つけるのが上手い！！
いたら飛び込んで、また群れが去ったらボートで移動して…を3回繰り返しました。
本っっ当に感動します。赤ちゃんイルカや、クルクル回って遊ぶイルカも見れました。

その後はまた移動してウミガメに会いに行ったんですが、残念ながら熱帯魚しかおらず…それでもフグや鯵、カラフルな魚と楽しめましたp(^_^)q
自然相手なので仕方ないですよね☆ノースショアのビーチで見ておいて良かった（笑）

帰りは道が混んでいたのか、送迎バスが到着するまで小一時間港で待ちました。でもそのお陰で全部水着も乾いたし、木陰でお昼寝、近くのカフェテリアでランチまでできちゃいましたp(^_^)qブルーの建物のランチ、お勧めです！

Reviewed by: ちぃたい

One of the places I definitely wanted to visit when I went to Hawaii, so I did some research and signed up for this tour. Since it seemed to be a region where it rains often, I prepared myself for rain, but we were blessed with great weather and were able to enjoy the wonderful scenery.

At Heaven's Sea, not only could we enjoy the views, but there was also a hula dance lesson, which was a lot of fun.

After returning to the boat for lunch, while we were enjoying our meal, a sea turtle swam around the boat, and my child was so excited. As soon as we got into the water, the sea turtle approached us, and we got to touch its belly! It was truly an amazing experience.

My older child (a second grader) tried snorkeling but seemed to get scared when he saw how deep the water suddenly became, so he turned back midway. However, I think it was satisfying enough to enjoy the experience without having to snorkel.

ハワイに行ったら絶対行ってみたい場所の一つだったので、いろいろと下調べをして、このツアーに申し込みました。雨がよく降る地域のようだったので、雨が降ることを覚悟して参加しましたが、天気に恵まれすばらしい景色を堪能することができました。
天国の海では景色を堪能するだけでなく、フラダンスのレッスンがあったりして楽しめました。
船に戻ってランチでしたが、おいしくいただいているときにウミガメが船の周りをぐるぐると泳いでいて、子どもと大興奮でした。すぐに海に降りるとウミガメの方から近づいてきてくれて、おなかにタッチ！本当にすばらしい体験でした。
上の子（小学2年生）はシュノーケリングに挑戦しましたが、急に深くなっている海の中をみて怖くなったらしく、途中で引き返してきました。特にシュノーケリングをしなくても楽しめたので、無理に体験しなくても十分満足できると思います。

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＞

Hawaii Island Ocean Rafting & Lava Cave Adventure with Snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay by Captain Zodiac ハワイ島　オーシャンラフティング＆溶岩洞窟アドベンチャー　ケアラケクア湾シュノーケル付き by キャプテン・ゾディアック号

Reviewed by: Dオーシャン

The boat we boarded felt like a large rubber dinghy with a propeller. I'm not sure about the capacity, but it looked like it could hold about 12 to 14 people. We sat on the edge of the rubber boat and set off! It felt like the American Navy landing from an aircraft carrier. After a little over an hour of crossing waves, we arrived at the snorkeling point. Looking back, this round trip was like sea rafting. Compared to rafting on the Yoshino River, considering there were small children on board and the sea was calm, it might be understandable. However, the term "rafting" still felt a bit off.

The snorkeling was great! It lasted about two hours, including lunch. We were able to see fish up close without them swimming away. For those who are not good at swimming, they provide floatation devices and life jackets.

On the way back through the cave... I'm not very good at English, but they mentioned it was where lava had flowed out and that it had been eroded by the waves! I was a bit disappointed because I had imagined rafting would progress through the cave based on the photos... my assumptions were mistaken.

After that, for the brave, there was a spot to dive from a cliff about 7 to 8 meters high. A young American was taking on the challenge.

When we docked, we saw people who had gone marlin trolling coming ashore, so we watched. Once we reached the pier, we were free to disperse.

By the way, it seems that depending on the season, you might encounter whales. Unfortunately, we didn't see any dolphins this time, which was a bit disappointing.

For future reference, I think of this as a two-hour snorkeling tour with a boat ride over the waves. Also, there were very few Japanese people. This is because the captain, who is a cheerful and handsome guy who loves jokes, doesn't speak any Japanese and there is no shuttle service. Oh, and there isn't really a place to change, so you go in your swimsuit and come back in your swimsuit.

乗る船は大きなゴムボートにスクリューが付いている感じでした。定員は定かではないですが、見た感じ12〜14人位？という大きさでした。ゴムボートの淵に座って出発進行！イメージはアメリカネイビーが母艦から上陸する時のような感じです。波を超えること1時間ちょっとでシュノーケリングのポイントへ到着〜。終わってから思えばこの行き帰りがシーラフティングでした。吉野川などのラフティングに比べると・・・小さな子が乗っていたことと、海が穏やかだったことを考えると仕方ないのかも。ただ、やはりラフティングという言葉は・・・でした。
シュノーケリングは良かった❗️昼食等を含めて2時間ほど。魚が逃げることなく近くで観れました。泳ぐのが苦手な人には浮き具とライフジャケットも貸してもらえます。
帰りの洞窟・・・?あまり得意ではない英語ですが、溶岩が流れ出ていたところってことと、波で削られたんだよ〜！って言ってました。写真を見てラフティングが洞窟の中を進むんだろう！と勝手に思っていた私には残念でした・・・私の思い込みが悪い。
その後、勇気のある人はどうぞ〜！っと7〜8メートル位の断崖からダイブできるところへ。アメリカ人の若者が挑戦してました。
寄港したらカジキのトローリングに行ってた人が陸揚げしてたので見学〜
桟橋に着いたら自由解散でした。
ちなみに、時期によってクジラと出会えるらしいです。今回はイルカにも出会えず、ちょっとだけ残念でした。
今後の方の参考に。2時間のシュノーケリングツアーにボートの波乗り？着きというイメージの方が思います。ちなみに、日本人は少ないそうです。なぜなら船長はジョーク大好き、陽気なイケメンだけど、日本語は一切なく、送迎もないから。あ、着替えるところもところも特に無いので水着で行って、水着で帰る感じでした。

Hello!
Thank you, Captain Taka and Daisuke, for the wonderful time with the dolphins.

My elderly mother was at the sea for the first time in about 30 years, and everyone, including her, was understandably anxious. Thanks to Daisuke's support, everyone was able to focus on the dolphins with peace of mind. I was especially happy that my mother, who was looking forward to this the most, was the first to meet the dolphins, even before my sister.
I appreciate being able to dive in a safe area without any bull sharks, and I thank Taka for taking the boat out for one last chance.

The digital camera was waterproof up to 12 meters (I mistakenly thought it was only 3 meters like my wristwatch).
Though the footage is not great, I am posting it with gratitude.

高齢の母は約３０年ぶりの海で、本人はもちろん全員が不安でした。
ダイスケさんが母をサポートしてくれたおかげで、全員が安心してイルカちゃんに集中できました。
一番楽しみにしていた姉より誰よりも早く１番先に母がイルカちゃんに出会えた事が何よりもうれしいことでした。

The main option of this trip was the sandbar. I was worried about seasickness, but there was no rocking at all when we reached the point. The water was beautifully low, up to my ankles, and the snorkeling afterward was an exciting first experience for the kids, especially when a sea turtle swam by. They had so much fun that after returning to the hotel, they bought snorkeling sets at the ABC Store to use in the waters of Honolulu as well. The light meals included sandwiches and salads, making it a very memorable option.

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＞

Refreshing! 爽快感いっぱい！

Reviewed by: ミッキー

I participated on Monday, July 28, 2014. The weather was clear.
I originally wanted to go snorkeling and was about to book a tour, but I chose this tour because it also offered rafting as an added bonus. To sum it up, it was a very satisfying tour.
On the day of the tour, we gathered at the location at 9:30 AM, and it took about 45 minutes to arrive from the Waikoloa Beach Resort by rental car. It was an easy-to-find location.
We were divided into two rubber boats with nine people each, but there were only three of us Japanese. The guide couldn't speak Japanese, but he checked if we understood what he was saying and made jokes that were easy to enjoy even if we didn't understand English, showing that he was considerate.
During the tour, the guide explained the history of the monuments and caves, so it was unfortunate if you didn't understand English, but it was still enjoyable even if you didn't grasp everything. I noticed that other Japanese participants were being loudly cautioned by the surrounding guides regarding swimming areas and safety during snorkeling, so it would be better to understand those instructions.
Once the tour started, we first headed out to the open sea where dolphins swim. The rubber boat bounced along, cutting through the wind at an incredible speed, which was truly refreshing. The dolphins swam in groups, and the guide adjusted the speed of the rubber boat so we could take pictures (for about 15 minutes).
After that, we increased speed again and enjoyed thrilling rafting for about an hour to reach Kealakekua Bay for snorkeling.
We had about two hours for snorkeling, but there were breaks for snacks, soft drinks, and sandwiches in between. The tropical fish and coral were very beautiful.
Since you can get quite sunburned, I was glad I wore a long-sleeved T-shirt and a maxi dress.
After snorkeling, we returned to the starting point, but this time we rafted along the coast for an hour while exploring caves. We sped towards the shore, making turns just before crashing, and jumped into high waves on purpose, showing great service spirit.
Holding onto ropes and handrails to avoid falling from the rubber boat made my hands hurt, and it felt like riding a rodeo machine, which made my abs, back, and buttocks sore, but the exhilaration was unbeatable. I was very satisfied, so I generously tipped at the end.

2014年7月28日月曜日に参加しました。天気は晴れ。
もともとシュノーケリングをしたくてツアーを申し込もうとしていましたが、さらにプラスアルファでラフティングも体験できるということで、このツアーを選びました。結論から言うと、大満足のツアーでした。
当日は、9時30分に現地集合でしたが、レンタカーでワイコロアビーチリゾートから45分程で到着。わかりやすい場所でした。
2機のゴムボートに9人ずつ振り分けられましたが、日本人は私達3人のみ。ガイドさんも日本語はできませんでした。ただ、「言っていることはわかる？」と聞いてくれたり、英語がわからなくても和めるようなジョークを言ってくれたりして、気を遣ってくれているのはわかりました。
ツアーの途中、モニュメントや洞窟の歴史の説明をしてくれるので、英語がわからないと残念ですが、理解できなくても楽しいです。シュノーケリングの際の遊泳範囲や注意事項については、他のツアーの日本人が、周りのガイドさん達に大声で注意されているのを見かけましたので、理解できた方がいいかと思います。
ツアーが始まると、まずイルカが泳ぐ外洋へ。ゴムボートが、ボワンボワンと弾みながら、風を切ってものスゴイ速さで進んでいくのは、本当に爽快でした。イルカたちはグループを作りながら泳いでいて、ガイドさんは写真を撮れるようにゴムボートのスピードを調整してくれます（およそ15分位）。
その後、再びスピードを上げ、スリル満点のラフティングをしながら、約1時間かけて、シュノーケリングのケアラケクア湾へ。
シュノーケリングには2時間程時間がもらえますが、間にスナックとソフトドリンク、サンドイッチ等を食べる休憩が入ります。熱帯魚や珊瑚がとてもきれいでした。
日焼けはかなりしますので、長袖Tシャツやマキシ丈のワンピースを着ていって良かったと思います。
シュノーケリングが終わると、出発地に戻りますが、今度は岸沿いに洞窟見学をしながら1時間ラフティングです。猛スピードで岸に向かい、ぶつかりそうなところでターンをしたり、わざと高い波に向かってジャンプしたりと、サービス精神満点でした。
ゴムボートから落ちないように紐やてすりを握っていて手が痛くなりますし、まるでロデオマシーンに乗っているように腹筋や背筋、お尻も痛くなりますが、それに勝る爽快感がたまりませんでした。とても大満足だったので、最後のチップもはずませて頂きました。

There were participants other than Japanese people who seemed to be talking about how cold it was in English, but they only slightly reduced the air flow, and it was still cold. So, warm clothing is necessary.

The sea was truly beautiful, and the kids had a blast! We were very satisfied with the family photos taken. I wish we could have spent more time there. For lunch, we had hamburgers, but the portion was satisfying. The boat also had a restroom, which was reassuring! I didn't experience any seasickness.

After that, we went sea turtle watching. We were able to see several come up for air. Then we moved to a snorkeling spot. We saw a lot of fish and were very satisfied! Both my 6-year-old and 14-year-old enjoyed it. Although we participated at the end of July, it was cold when we got out of the water. At first, I felt the price was a bit high, but my family was very satisfied with our participation. 😊

”人気”と書かれると、ホントに?!と不安に思っていましたが、とても良かったです。
行き帰りのバスは寒かったです。日本人以外の参加の人がいて英語で寒いと会話していたようですが、風量を若干下げてくれてたぐらいで、それでも寒かった。なので、防寒着は必要です。

海は本当にキレイで、子供も大はじゃぎ！
家族写真もうまく撮っていただき大満足。時間的にはもっとゆっくりしたかったなぁ～
お昼は、ハンバーガーだけど、お腹は満足出来る量でした。
船には、トイレもあるので、安心！船酔いも無かったです。
その後は、ウミガメウォッチング。息継ぎに上がってくるのを何匹か見れました。
また移動し、シュノーケリング出来るスポットへ。
魚がいっぱい見れて、大満足！子供6歳、14歳も楽しんでました。
７月末の参加でしたが、海から出ると寒かったです。
最初は、料金的には高い気もしましたが、我が家は参加してとても満足でした(^^)/

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Great Time

Reviewed by: John1102

My wife and I had a great time. The crew was knowledgeable and fun, and they made sure that everyone had a good time. They also had a smaller group of people that they take out, so there really is a more intimate feeling to the trip.

Hawaii Nautical 2-Hour Waikiki Turtle Snorkel Sail - Morning & Afternoon Tours [Apr-Nov]

Snorkel Tour Review

Reviewed by: Judy & Tyler

This was a great experience! This was the best part of our vacation, the most fun the both of us had. The crew members really helped to make the trip memorable and so much fun. The crew had much knowledge and was able to answer so many questions. The best part by far was them helping me out. I was very afraid of getting in and snorkeling, I began freaking out and going back to the boat, before getting out the captain asked if I would be more comfortable using a floatation devise to help me out. And man that made a huge difference. Not only did they give me that device they then help me swim out to the spot and help me keep calm. This was the best thing for me, I was very frightened at first but got over it thanks to the crew thank you (:

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＞

I felt healed. 癒されました☆

Reviewed by: yuko

I was filled with excitement and anxiety since it was nature we were dealing with, but thanks to the strong desire of the captain and the guide to show the participants dolphins, we were able to see many dolphins. On the way back to the port, when we unexpectedly encountered a pod of dolphins, they created another opportunity for us to get back in the water. I was impressed by their dedication to providing a personal experience rather than just going through the motions of their job. The emotions of having met the dolphins are unforgettable... I will definitely come back to see them again!

自然相手なのでワクワクする期待感とともに、不安な気持ちでいっぱいでしたが、船長とガイドさんのツアー参加者にイルカを観せたいという強い気持ちのお陰で、沢山のイルカに会えました。
帰港する途中で、まさかのイルカの群れに遭遇した際に、もう一度海に入る機会を作って下さり、ただ仕事をこなすのでは無く、親身に対応して下さる仕事っぷりに感激しました。
帰国してからもイルカに会えた感動は忘れられません‥。
また必ず会いに行きます‼

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 a wonderful experience! とても素敵な体験でした！

Reviewed by: mika

With 10 adults, 6 toddlers, and 2 infants participating, I thought it would be impossible for everyone to board the boat, but we all managed to get on together, and it became a wonderful memory! The staff were all very nice, providing us with photos and tea, and their attentiveness was excellent. Since it was a short time, I was worried about whether we could enjoy it, but the plan allowed participation even for those with babies and those who didn't want to snorkel, so the whole family was able to have a great time! Plus, since we finished in the morning, we could move on to the next plan, making it a very satisfying day!

大人10名、幼児6名、乳児2名の参加で船の同乗は無理かと思ったけど、みんなで一緒に乗れ、とてもいい思い出になりました！
スタッフの方もみなさん良い方ばかりで、写真やお茶を運んでくれたりで、気配りもとても良かったです。短い時間だったので、楽しめるか心配だったけど、赤ちゃん連れにもシュノーケリングしない人がいても無理なく参加出来るプランで、家族みんなが存分に楽しむ事が出来ました！そして、午前中には、終わるので、次のプランも動け、大満足な日となりました！

野生のマンタ　シュノーケリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／軽食付き＞

Encounter with a manta ray. マンタ遭遇

Reviewed by: HIDE

We participated in the manta night snorkeling with our family of three, including our 8-year-old daughter. As a result, we had five mantas come very close to us, and our daughter was extremely satisfied.

As parents who dive, we felt it took quite a while to encounter mantas while diving, but if they come so close (within 10 cm), I definitely recommend participating at least once.

By the way, I called to reconfirm at 4 PM on the day of the event, but no one answered. I thought, as someone mentioned in a post, that it might be okay not to reconfirm. However, when we arrived at Sea Paradise at 7 PM as stated in the confirmation, we were told it was too late because the gathering was at 6:30 PM, which was quite alarming. After explaining that the confirmation said 7 PM and that I had called but no one picked up, they called a colleague on the boat, and somehow we were allowed to board despite being late.

I recommend making the reconfirmation call, and since the confirmation stated a 7 PM gathering, I would like VERTRA to double-check with Sea Paradise.

As mentioned in other posts, you will drift on the surface holding onto the bar for about an hour, so after the snorkeling, my daughter was completely chilled. I recommend bringing warm clothes for changing after the snorkeling.

8歳の娘と家族3人でマンタ ナイトシュノーケルに参加。結果としては断続的に5枚のマンタがすぐそばまで接近で、娘も大満足でした。
ダイバーの両親としては、ダイビングでマンタに会うまで結構時間かかったのになあ、と思う気持ちもありましたが、あんなに手軽にマンタがそぐそばまで（１０ｃｍと離れてない）くるなら一度は参加をお勧めします。
ところで今回当日4時にReconfirmの電話をするも、誰も出ないので、どなたかの投稿にあったようにReconifrmしなくても大丈夫かな、と思いConfirmationに記載の通り夜7時にシーパラダイスに到着したら、集合は6時半でToo Lateだといわれ肝を冷やしました。Confirmationに7時とあったこと、電話したのに誰も電話を取らなかったことなど話したところ、船の同僚に電話を入れてくれ、何とか遅れて乗せてもらいました。
Reconfirmの電話はしたほうがいいのと、Confirmationに7時集合とあったので、VERTRAさんはシーパラダイスと再確認をお願いしたいと思います。
見なさいの投稿にもありますが、小一時間バーにつかまって水面を漂いますので、終了後は娘は体が冷え切ってました。シュノーケル終了後の着替えは温かいものをお勧めします。

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾　シュノーリングツアー ＜軽食付き／英語ガイド＞

I was thrilled by the intense rafting! 激しいラフティングに大興奮！

Reviewed by: romshutefan

First, the check-in is not at a store, but in the car. You need to sign a participation agreement (probably stating that you won't complain if you fall into the sea and something happens!). The boat is a large rubber boat with an engine. If you think it won't go very fast, you're mistaken! As we set off, only the back part touched the sea, creating a wheely state. When big waves came, it felt like we were flying. I was clinging to the boat, worried it might flip over.

When we arrived at Kealakekua Bay, we were lucky enough to encounter a pod of wild dolphins. Then we went into the sea, which was a beautiful world beyond what I've heard. One important point to note is that you should not step on the coral. After snorkeling, we enjoyed fresh fruits and drinks, and then headed back with a force that felt like we might flip over again.

The beautiful coral reefs and the thrilling rafting to get there made for a truly interesting tour!

まず、受付はお店ではなく、車です。
受付に際し参加同意書（おそらく海に落ちて、どうにかなっても文句言わない！という）にサインが必要です。
ボートは大きなゴムボートにエンジンを付けたもの。
スピードはあまり出ないだろうと甘く見ていたら大間違い！！
出向と同時に後方部分のみが海に着いてウィリー状態。
大きな波が来ると飛んでいる感じ。
ひっくり返らないかひやひやしながら、船にしがみついていました。
ケアラカクア湾に着くとラッキーなことに野生のイルカの群れに遭遇。
続いて海へ、そこは聞きしに勝る美しい世界。
注意点はサンゴに足をつけてはいけない点。
シュノーケリング後はフレッシュなフルーツや飲み物を楽しんだ後、
再びひっくり返るような勢いで帰途に。

美しいサンゴ礁、そこに着くまでのどきどきラフティング。
実に面白いツアーでした！

Hanalei River and Blue Lagoon Kayaking & Guided Snorkeling Tour - Kayak Kauai

Jessie was the BEST tour guide. The ultimate professional and extremely personalable.

Reviewed by: Portland, OR Couple

What more can we say? Jessie made our kayak tour the most exciting part of our Kaua'i vacation. He's 100% passionate about the island & maintaining it's splendor. Jessie know the island flora & fauna, as well as very interesting tidbits about the history. He is also an excellent kayaker, who remained calm throughout our outing. One of the 3 couples in our party had their kayak turn over and the wife, a non-swimmer panicked. Jessie made sure all were safe with life preservers securely fastened, despite the slight "adventure." This tour is worth doing again, and again. Thanks Jessie!
