I participated in snorkeling on the Big Island for the first time. I was anxious because I had heard it wouldn't be in Japanese, but I was able to check in without any problems. However, all the explanations on the boat were in English, so I couldn't understand anything at all. They gave us a printout in Japanese beforehand, so I was asking if they were talking about what was written there. By the way, we were the only Japanese family on board.
As soon as we set off, we encountered a pod of dolphins, which was very moving. Since it was rafting, the front seats were really bumpy and thrilling, which made it a lot of fun! The captain tilted the boat left and right, which was entertaining. We had plenty of time for snorkeling and could really enjoy ourselves. There were many beautiful fish. The Blue Cave was more of just a hole than a cave, but the sea was beautiful.
Even though I couldn't speak English, I was able to communicate somehow, and the captain was very kind. It became a wonderful memory!
初めてのハワイ島でシュノーケリングもできるということで参加しましたっ✳︎
日本語じゃないと聞いていたので不安でしたが、問題なく受付できましたっ。
でも、船の中での説明は全部英語だったので全く理解出来ませんでした。
あらかじめ日本語でかいてあるプリントを渡してもらえたので、だいたいこのことを今いってるのかな?って聞いてました。
ちなみに日本人は、私たち家族しかいなかったですσ(^_^;)
さっそく出発したら、イルカの群れに会いました✳︎とても、感動しました。
ラフティングということだけあって、前の席はすごい揺れてスリル満点で楽しかったです‼︎
船長さんが、左右に船を傾けてくれおもしろかったです。
シュノーケリングもたっぷり時間があり、のびのびできました。
魚もたくさんいてキレイでした。
青の洞窟は、洞窟っていうよりただの穴でしたが海はキレイでした。
英語を話せなかったですが、なんとか通じることもでき親切な船長さんでした。
とてもいい思い出になりましたV(^_^)V

I would give this 4 1/2 stars! My husband and I ended up getting a private tour because no one else signed up! Our guide was great (didn't give name)-he constantly was bringing things back up to the surface to show us and was very knowledgable about anything we asked about. I had a very personal and special experience with a female turtle while snorkeling and we saw some while kayaking, but I thought we would see more at the turtle cleaning station. Would recommend this to anyone with experience. The total time was good but we wish it could have been a little longer-our guide didn't want us to be on choppy waters. Our tour was around 3 hrs. They provide you with snacks and water. Our guide was snapping pictures for us and will e-mail them to us for free! Can't wait to see them! Mahalo to our guide and this company!!
Tip: After you are done, ask your guide about the Jaws Food Truck-delicious fish tacos and burritos with snacks and smoothies!

It was unfortunately rainy from the morning, but the sun came out just during the sandbar and snorkeling time. We checked the tides and were able to see the best views. The round trip from the port was cold due to the rain, and some people were standing in covered areas. There's nothing we can do about the weather, but it would have been even better if it had been sunny.
朝からあいにくの雨でしたが、サンドバーとシュノーケルの時だけ太陽が現れてくれました(^^)v
海の満ち引きを調べて行き、最高の景色を見ることができました。

The sandbar feels like an ordinary beach in the ocean, so I wasn't as impressed as I thought I would be, haha. However, I think it's nice to spend the day relaxing, eating burgers grilled on the boat, watching sea turtles from the boat, and snorkeling.
サンドバーは海の中にある普通の砂浜という感じなので思ったほど感動でもなかったです笑でも、船で焼いてくれたハンバーガーを食べたり、船上からウミガメを見たり、シュノーケリングをしたりと1日のんびり過ごせてよいかと思います。

The cruise was excellent. We saw dolphins on the way out and on the way back. When we anchored we had about 2.5 hours to snorkel, jump off the boat and play with the various water equipment. The kids particularly enjoyed using the paddle board. The breakfast and lunch was great and the staff were very friendly. I would definitely recommend this trip.

Even if you're not confident in your swimming skills, it's perfectly fine to join alone. The staff's attentiveness and care make you feel at ease. I believe I had an experience that was not just like the photos in the guidebook, but even better.
I swam alongside a pod of dolphins, followed the silhouette of a dolphin gracefully arching underwater, and spotted a baby dolphin clinging to its mother. The highlight was when the guide led us to a spot where a dolphin swam towards us, gliding right in front of us. For a moment, the dolphin looked at us, and we were all so excited! We confirmed with each other, "Did we just make eye contact?" At first, I hesitated to join alone because my family is prone to seasickness, but I'm really glad I participated.
泳ぎに自信がなくても、一人参加でも大丈夫。スタッフさんの目配り&気配りがあるので安心です。とにかくガイドブックの写真のような、というよりそれ以上の体験ができたと思います。
イルカの群れと並んで泳いだり、水中深く弧をえがくいるかのシルエットを追ったり、お母さんイルカのお腹にくっついて泳ぐ赤ちゃんイルカを見つけたり。中でもガイドさんが引っ張って誘導してくれた先に一匹のイルカがこちらに向かって泳いできて、目と鼻の先をスーッと横切って行った時、一瞬イルカちゃんがキョロっと私たちを見てくれたのには大興奮!「いま、目があったよね?」とお互い気のせいじゃない事を確認したのでした。最初、家族が船酔い体質のため一人で参加するか迷ったけど参加して本当によかったです。

This time, I participated with my brother. I was surprised that the tour start time changed from 9:00 to 6:00 the day before, but it turned out to be better to start at 6:00 for the dolphins' sleeping schedule and the scenery of the mountains on the West Coast. At the dolphin spot, we encountered a pod of about 50 dolphins and had fun swimming with them. The sound of the dolphins was impressive. We also got to swim with turtles. Since the instructor had given us cheese beforehand, we were able to see the fish up close as they went for the bait.
There were about five turtles near their habitat, and we swam alongside them, but they seemed used to people and swam leisurely.
The travel time from Waikiki to the West Coast was about 1 hour. I think we spent about 2 hours out on the water. The instructor had prepared free motion sickness medication for us on the bus beforehand, so I was able to enjoy snorkeling without getting seasick. We arrived back in Waikiki around 11:30.
I hope to challenge myself with Dolphin University next time.
今回は、兄弟での参加となりました
前日に9:00ツアースタート予定が6:00になりびっくりしましたが、イルカの睡眠時間と西海岸の山肌の景色が6:00スタートの方が良いそうなので結果良かったです。イルカスポットでは、50頭くらいの群れと遭遇。し、一緒に泳ぐことができ楽しかったです。イルカの鳴き声が印象的でした。また、亀とも一緒に泳ぐことができました。インストラクターに事前にチーズをもらっていたので、餌に食いつく魚をまじかで見ることができました。
亀は住処付近に5匹程度おり、並走して泳ぎましたが、人慣れしているのか、のんびり泳いでいました。
ワイキキから西海岸までの所要時間は1h。海に出ていた時間は2hくらいだったと思います。事前に行きのバスでインストラクターさんに無料で酔い止め薬を準備してもらえていたので船酔いをすることもなくシュノーケルを楽しむことができました。ワイキキ到着は11:30くらいでした。
次回イルカ大学に挑戦できればと思います。

I participated with three friends. As others have mentioned, on the day we joined, we were the only Japanese participants, while the other attendees were about 16 people in total, including families, couples, and local friends. The captain was considerate, seating those who were prone to seasickness at the back of the boat.
I thought we would head straight to the snorkeling point, but instead, we enjoyed a tour of Kona from the sea and even went searching for a pod of dolphins, making the journey to the snorkeling spot enjoyable.
Once we arrived at the snorkeling point, we were free to explore at our own pace and had a great time interacting with the fish. The snorkeling gear provided was of good quality, and there were plenty of support items like kickboards and flotation devices.
After snorkeling, we could eat as much as we wanted on the boat, enjoying sandwiches, potato chips, cookies, fruits, juice, and water. I felt both my stomach and heart were full, and despite the boat speeding back, it was a challenge to stay awake!
友人3人で参加しました。みなさんも書かれていたように私たちが参加した日も日本人は私たちのみで、他の参加者は、家族連れやご夫婦、地元の友人同士など、総勢16名程度の出航でした。キャプテンは酔いやすい人をボートの後ろ側に座らせるなど、配慮もしてくれました。
シュノーケルポイントにすぐ向かうのかと思いきや、コナの街を海から紹介してくれたり、イルカの群れを探しに行くなど、シュノーケルポイントにつくまでも楽しく過ごすことができました。
ポイントについてからは、各自自由に行動でき、ゆっくりと思い思いに魚と戯れることができました。貸してくれたシュノーケルグッズもちゃんとしていて、ビート板や浮き棒などサポートグッズも豊富でした。
シュノーケル後は、船の上で、サンドウィッチやポテトチップス、クッキーやフルーツ、ジュースや水など、好きなだけ食べることができました。
胃も心も満たされて、帰りはボートが爆走しているにもかかわらず、寝落ちしないようにするのが大変でした。

I was waiting at the changed meeting place the day before the tour, but no shuttle came, and I didn't receive any calls on my registered mobile. I tried calling the tour company several times, but couldn't get through. After 40 minutes, I finally got a call through, and when I explained the situation, they asked if I had been at the meeting place.
They said they would contact me again after confirming, so I waited in my room, but after 30 minutes, I still hadn't heard anything. When I called again, they said the Japanese office opens at 8 AM, which is why they couldn't contact me. At that point, it was already past 8:15 AM.
They mentioned rescheduling for another day or in the afternoon, but due to my travel schedule, I could only reschedule for that afternoon, which meant I would have to switch to a lunch plan that was different from the morning one I had originally chosen. Since I was traveling with an 8-month-old baby, snorkeling wasn't an option, and long hours would be a burden, which is why I had specifically chosen the morning plan.
It was a main option for me, so I decided to switch to the afternoon one, but they said it would just be a direct rescheduling, which frustrated me. When I complained, they said they would cover the costs.
The option I participated in was wonderful, but I felt that my limited time on this expensive trip was wasted on phone calls, I couldn't even have breakfast, and my original afternoon plans were ruined. Moreover, there was no response unless I took action myself. It’s truly sad and frustrating that such memories were left from this trip. I don't think I will use this company again.
I’m sharing this for reference, hoping no one else has to go through a similar experience.
参加前日集合場所の変更があったためそちらで待機していましたが送迎が来ず、登録した携帯に連絡が来ず、ツアー会社の電話にも数回したが繋がらず。40分後にようやく電話が通じ、事情を話すと
もう出てしまった、集合場所にいたのか? との対応。
確認後再度連絡すると言われたため部屋で待ったが30分経っても連絡なし。再度こちらから電話したら日本語のオフィスが8時から開くため連絡できなかったと。その時点で8時15分過ぎでしたが。
他の日、もしくは午後に振り返ると言われたが滞在日程ではその日の午後にしか振替できず朝とは違った昼食付きのプランになってしまった。
生後8ヶ月の赤ちゃん連れだったためシュノーケリングが出来ないし長時間は負担になってしまうからわざわざ朝のプランにしていたのに。

I participated in a tour in July during the day. The weather was a bit rainy and somewhat cold, but we had fun playing underwater beach volleyball at the sandbar. After that, we moved to a point where we could see turtles and had hamburgers. We saw about ten turtles from the boat. They come up to the surface for a moment to breathe, so we only saw them briefly. After that, we went snorkeling. There were life jackets available, and there were also things like boogie board poles, so I felt safe doing it. There were a lot more fish underwater than I expected. We were even able to feed them bread, which was very satisfying. Finally, it cleared up, and we were able to see the beautiful sandbar!
7月の昼のツアーに参加しました。天気は雨も少し降っていて若干寒かったのですがサンドバーでは水中のビーチバレーをやって楽しめました。その後はハンバーガーを食べて亀が見えるポイントに移動。10匹ぐらいの亀を船の上から見ました。呼吸をするのに一瞬海面に上がってくるとのこと。なので見えたのも一瞬でした。その後はシュノーケリング。これはライフジャケットもあるしビート板のポールのようなものもあるので安心して出来ました。海中には予想してたよりも色々な魚が大量にいました。パンをあげることも出来て大満足。最後は晴れて綺麗なサンドバーも見ることが出来ました♪

We saw two sea turtles, and even in places where we couldn't touch the bottom, he held our hands, so it wasn't scary at all. It was a tour that made me want to request it again next time I go.

This is a place filled with memories since I visited Hanauma Bay for my honeymoon over thirty years ago, and I was impressed that it has maintained its unchanged beauty. The snorkeling experience was greatly assisted by our Japanese-speaking guide, who took good care of us, an elderly couple with no prior experience, helping us keep up with the other participants. We were able to encounter sea turtles and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Additionally, the guide took photos underwater and on the beach, which were later uploaded to Facebook, allowing us to download them for free after returning home as a keepsake. I definitely want to participate again next time.
三十数年前に新婚旅行でハナウマ湾に行って以来の思い出の場所であり、変わらない美しさを保っているのに感激しました。シュノーケリングは、我ら未経験者の高齢者夫婦が他の参加者から遅れ気味になるのを、日本語の話せるガイドさんが、面倒をよく見てくれて大変助かりました。ウミガメと出会えたり、十分堪能しました。また、ガイドさんが水中や海辺でカメラで撮影してくれ、後日フェイスブックにアップしてあり、帰国後に無料でダウンロードでき記念になりました。是非次回も参加したい。

This is my second time participating in this tour. The last time I came, the tide was high and the sandbar didn't appear, but this time I did my research and was able to see the sandbar. There are always sea turtles near the boat (they have names, but I forgot them), and you can definitely see them. They are friendly towards humans, so when you make gestures to feed them, they come close, which is adorable. I might go again just to see the honu! I really recommend this tour!

I thought there would be some Japanese people, but everyone except us was from an English-speaking country. I could hardly understand the explanations. My companion had snorkeling experience, so we managed to get by with their help.
While rafting, we spotted a pod of dolphins that approached us at an incredible speed, and we were able to observe them several times.
The lava cave wasn't really much of a cave. It was just a part where the waves had worn away the rocks, so it was a bit disappointing.
Kealakekua Bay was very beautiful and a lot of fun.
少しは日本人がいるかと思いましたが、自分達以外は全員英語圏の方達でした。説明もほぼ分からず。連れがシュノーケル経験があったので、聞きながらやりました。
ラフティング中イルカの群れを見つけると、すごい勢いで接近してくれ、何度か群れを観察することができました。
溶岩洞窟は洞窟というほどのものではないです。ちょっと波で岩が削れた部分、ぐらいのものなので、期待外れでした。

Great trip but do the morning excursion only. The ocean waves and winds can be brutal in the afternoon. We did the morning trip and the ocean waves were not too bad on the way to Na Pali. We saw dolphins and turtles along the way. The coastline is beautiful!!! The snorkeling spot was good but got better the further we got away from the shore. Lunch was very good with a chicken and rice dish. On our way back we went into a cave with the boat. This was very cool. The ride back to the harbor was brutal!!! Big waves and VERY bumpy!!!! If you get sea sick easily or have a bad back or neck then this is not the excursion for you. If you want a full experience of riding the waves then sit in the front. If you want a calmer ride, sit toward the back. Overall, this was a great excursion.

The dolphin middle school was canceled for various reasons, and we were upgraded to Dolphin University for free, so the following is a review of Dolphin University.
● Positive Points
Thank you to all the friendly staff who worked hard to support everyone until we saw the dolphins.
Although the time was short, it was great to see wild dolphins and sea turtles up close.
I was also quite happy to be able to eat Leonard's famous malasadas in Hawaii.
● Negative Points
I was very anxious because the bus was quite late for the morning pickup time. When I called the hotel front desk to confirm, I was informed that "the bus seems to have just arrived at the hotel," but the bus had not yet arrived at the pickup location, which made me even more anxious. It came a few minutes later, though...
I purchased a lot of photos, but most of them were of people I didn't know, and there weren't many photos of us, so I felt that $60 was expensive.
イルカ中学は諸事情で中止となり、イルカ大学に無料でランクアップになった為、下記はイルカ大学のレビューになります。
●良かった点
参加者全員がイルカを見るまで凄く頑張ってサポートしてくれたフレンドリーなスタッフの皆さん、ありがとうございました。
時間は短かったですが、結構近くで野生のイルカやウミガメを見ることが出来て良かったです。
ハワイで有名なレナーズのマラサダが食べられたのも結構嬉しかったです。
●悪かった点
朝のピックアップ時間にバスがかなり遅れた為、非常に不安になりました。ホテルのフロントから電話して確認したら『今、ホテルに到着したようです。』とご連絡頂いたのにピックアップ場所にまだバスは来ておらず、更に不安になりました。その後、数分後に来ましたが…
購入した写真の枚数は多かったですが知らない人の写真が大半で、あまり自分達が写っている写真がなかったのに60ドルは高いと感じました。

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the bus delay.
Based on your valuable feedback, we will strive to improve our services in the future.
