All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

The sandbar was very beautiful! Even though I was in the middle of the ocean, standing on the sand felt strange. I was able to see several sea turtles. Regarding snorkeling, the water was a bit murky, but it was nice to see the fish swimming. The breakfast sandwich was delicious.

サンドバーがとても綺麗でした！海の真ん中にいるのに、砂の上に立っていて、不思議な気持ちになりました。ウミガメも何匹も見ることができました。シュノーケルに関して、少し海は濁っていましたが、魚が泳いでいるのを見ることができ良かったです。朝食のサンドイッチ美味しかったです。

The weather was probably nice, which allowed us to see quite a few dolphins up close. The tour guide, Daisuke, was very polite, kind, and full of energy. I consider myself someone who doesn't get easily moved, but I genuinely want to go on this tour again.

おそらく日もよかったのでしょうが、かなりのイルカを近くでみることができました。
ツアーガイドのダイスケさんも非常に丁寧、親切で、またエネルギーを感じる方でした。
そんなに簡単には感動しないタイプだと自己評価していますが、このツアーはまた行きたいと純水に思います。

Since they are wild dolphins, I hoped to see them, but I thought I shouldn't get my hopes up too much. However, I was able to encounter a pod of dolphins!

I spent too much time with the dolphins, and unfortunately, I couldn't do the paddle surfing I was looking forward to. I chose this place instead of a middle school for marine sports...

野生のイルカなので、観れるといいなー、でも期待しすぎ無いようにしないとなー、と思ってましたが、イルカの群れに会えました！

イルカの方に時間を費やしすぎて、楽しみにしていたパドルサーフィンができなかったのが残念でした。
マリンスポーツをするためにいるか中学ではなくこちらにしたので。。

The weather was a mix of sunny and cloudy... Our first trip to Hawaii! Leaving our eldest and second daughter in Japan, it was a trip for just the four of us: Dad, Mom, our eldest son, and our youngest daughter.

Being a sporty family, we first got hooked on beach volleyball, and while Dad took photos, there was a flurry of high-fives between us! The hamburgers for lunch were delicious—though we tried to recreate them at home and were disappointed that they didn't taste the same.

Seeing sea turtles up close had our high school senior son and middle school junior daughter in a frenzy! This two-shot at the beach was also refreshing!

Dad and Mom are determined to live long lives! We definitely want to go back again. Nature is amazing. The only downside was that the round-trip bus took way too long to arrive.

天気は晴れたり曇ったり・・・初めてのハワイ！長女・次女を日本に残し、パパ・ママ・長男・三女の４人旅。
スポーツ一家はビーチバレーにまずはまり、パパさんが写真を撮る中、親子でハイタッチの嵐！
お昼のハンバーガーも美味しかった～（家に帰ってチャレンジしたけど、同じ味にはならずガッカリ）
ウミガメを目の前にして高校３年長男と中学３年三女も大騒ぎ！海でのこのﾂｰｼｮｯﾄも新鮮！
パパとママも長生きするぞ！
また、絶対行きたいと思っています。自然って凄い。
ただ、往復のバスがあまりにも来なくて、それだけが難点でした。

On this day, there were many clouds, and they were reflected on the water's surface, but I was still able to observe a lot of sea turtles. The sandbar is not completely dry land, but it feels very strange to think that there is a shallow area about ankle-deep offshore. The mountains of Kualoa Ranch visible from the sandbar were very beautiful and left me in awe.

この日は雲が多くて水面に雲が映っていましたが、それでもウミガメをたくさん観察できました。
サンドバーは完全な陸地ではありませんが、沖に足首くらいの浅瀬があると思うととても不思議な感じです。サンドバーから見えるクアロア牧場の山がとても綺麗で感激しました。

I participated with my sister. At first, there were no manta rays at all, and I was worried about what would happen if it ended like this, but in the last 30 minutes, a lot of them gathered, and we were able to see them quite up close!! When we entered the water, we were handed floats, but I didn't understand the English instructions well and only figured it out by watching the people around me. It might be a bit tough if you're participating alone and don't understand English. Even though it was a reasonably priced tour, I was glad to see the manta rays. It seems like they gather due to the lights from the boat, and the other boats were much brighter, attracting a lot more manta rays. I might want to try that one next time.

妹と二人で参加しました。最初、マンタは全く現れず、このまま終わったらどうしようと不安になりましたが、最後30分くらいでいっぱい集まってきて、かなり間近で見れました!!海に入る際にフロートを渡されたのですが、英語がよくわからず、回りの人をみてやっと理解。。一人参加で英語がわからないとちょっとツラいかもです。リーズナブルなツアーでも、マンタを見れたのでよかったですが、船の明かりでマンタを集める仕組みのようで、他の船の方がものすごく明るくてマンタもよく集まってるみたいでした。次回はそっち乗りたいかも。。

We boarded a large bus at the Sheraton Waikiki bus center and set off. As expected from a popular tour, the bus was nearly full. It was a comfortable ride towards Kaneohe. Since it was early in the morning, I thought I would try to sleep, but I found myself captivated by the beautiful scenery outside the window until we arrived. We then boarded a nearly motionless boat from the port and set off. On the way to the sandbar, we enjoyed some sea turtle watching. The turtles peeked their heads out from the beautiful emerald green sea, and each time, there were cheers of excitement.

Upon arriving at the sandbar, we took a stroll towards it with our cameras in hand. Everyone enjoyed taking photos, and after a while, we returned to the boat to drop off our cameras and put on our snorkeling gear to head back to the sandbar. We had a great time snorkeling there.

After encountering many fish, we returned to the boat, where delicious sandwiches and drinks were waiting for us. The boat smoothly made its way to Kaneohe Bay.

I truly had a wonderful time in the beautiful sea. Thank you very much.

シェラトンワイキキのバスセンターで大型バスにのり、出発。さすが人気ツアー、ほぼ満席でした。カネオヘにむかい快適なバスの時間。朝早かったので、寝ようっと思っていましたが、窓からみえる素敵な景色に見入っているうちに到着。港から揺れのほぼない船にのり出発。サンドバーに到着するまでに、海亀ウォッチング。キレイなエメラルドグリーンの海からぽこぽこといたるところから顔を覗かせる海亀たち。その度に歓声があがりました。
サンドバーに到着すると、カメラ片手にサンドバーに向けお散歩。おのおの撮影をたのしみ一旦カメラを船におきにかえり、シュノーケルを付けて、もう一度サンドバーに。そこからシュノーケリング楽しみました。
たくさんのお魚に出会い、満足して船に帰ると、美味しいサンドイッチと飲み物が用意されていました。船は揺れることなくカネオヘBAYへ。
ほんとに、綺麗な海で素敵な時間をすごさせていただきました。ありがとうございました。

The week I went to Hawaii, there was a Hawaiian storm, and the weather was very unstable. However, miraculously, the day at the heavenly beach was sunny, and I was able to enjoy the beautiful sea! The staff were all very interesting and kind, and I had a great time. Beach volleyball was fun, and the hamburgers we ate on the boat were delicious ♥ I was very satisfied with the optional tour where I also got to see sea turtles!

私がハワイへ行った週は、
ちょうどハワイアンストームがきていて、
とても天気が不安定でしたが、
天国の海の日は奇跡的に晴れて、
とてもキレイな海を味わうことができました！
スタッフの方もとてもおもしろく良い方ばかりで、
楽しい時間を過ごせました。
ビーチバレーも楽しかったし、船上で食べるハンバーガーも美味しかった♥
ウミガメも見れて大満足のオプショナルツアーでした！

The staff were kind and entertaining, which was great, but overall, the experience felt lacking. I participated in snorkeling for the first time in the Hawaiian islands, with many repeat visitors promoting it, so I had high expectations. However, there were few fish in terms of both quantity and variety, and I felt it wasn't worth the time and money spent. The waters in Okinawa and Asia are definitely much clearer and have more fish! Is this what Hawaii is like? I also had high hopes for the luxurious BBQ, but aside from snacks, the only real meal was a hamburger. The burger they grilled on-site was indeed delicious, but I felt that Americans have a rather limited diet during this trip. By the way, we were the only Japanese people there, and no one spoke Japanese at all.

スタッフの方々は親切で、なにかとおもしろく楽しませてくれてよかったのですが、全体的に内容がイマイチといった感じでした。ハワイの離島で初のシュノーケリング、リピーター多数というフレコミで、とても期待して参加したのですが、魚の数も種類も少なく、こんな時間とお金をかけてくるほどじゃないなと思ってしまいました。沖縄やアジアの海の方がだんぜんキレイで魚も多い！ハワイってこんなもんなの？という印象です。豪華ＢＢＱとあるのも期待したのですが、スナックを除けば食事らしい食事はハンバーガーだけ。その場で焼いてくれるバーガーは確かに美味しかったけど、アメリカ人って食生活が乏しいと感じる旅行でした。
ちなみに、日本人は私たちだけでした。日本語は全く通じません。

We went as a family of four, including two elementary school children.

The water level at the sandbar was just below waist height. Honestly, I was quite disappointed because I had imagined the sand would be more exposed. That said, the weather was nice, and the clear water and white sand were beautiful.

After returning home, I did some research and found that various conditions are needed for the sand to be exposed, so it seems to depend on luck and timing. I feel there should be a bit more communication that it’s not guaranteed the sand will be visible!

The BBQ lunch consisted of hamburgers made with patties grilled on the boat. It might be clearer to call it a BBQ hamburger. There was quite a line, so it took a long time, but that’s understandable. We were able to see 2-3 sea turtles during the sea turtle watch, and the kids were satisfied. It was unfortunate that it started to drizzle during snorkeling, and the water became dim. After getting out of the water, it was so cold that I recommend bringing a change of clothes.

Since the rain intensified, I wonder if we returned to the dock early... We were unsure which bus to take and whether any buses were even coming. There was no one to explain, so we had to ask all the drivers. In the end, we had to wait about 20 minutes for the shuttle bus to arrive. It was quite comical to see everyone wandering around in the light rain without umbrellas. I think everyone would feel more at ease if they could come to pick us up with a bit more time to spare. Therefore, I give it ★★★.

小学生の子供２人を含めた家族４人で行きました。

サンドバーの海面は腰よりちょっと下くらいでした。
砂が顔を出しているイメージだったのでかなりガッカリしたのが正直な感想です。
とはいえ、お天気も良かったので透き通る海面と白い砂は綺麗でした。

帰国してからいろいろ調べましたが砂が顔を出すのはいろいろな条件が必要な様で
まさに運とタイミングみたいですね。
必ず砂面が見えるとは限らない！ということをもう少しアナウンスがあっても良いと感じてます。

ＢＢＱランチは船上で焼いたハンバーグを使ったハンバーガーでした。
ＢＢＱハンバーガーと書いた方がわかりやすいのでは。
行列になっていたのでかなり時間がかかりましたがこれは仕方ないですね。
海ガメウオッチは２～３頭見ることが出来子供たちも満足していました。
シュノーケリングの頃から小雨が降り出し、海面も薄暗くなってしまったのは残念でした。
海から上がった後は震える程寒く、着替えを持参することをお勧めします。

雨も激しくなってきたので早めに岸壁に戻ったのでしょうか…。
どのバスに乗るのか…そもそもバスが来ているのか…
説明してくれる人も居らず、全てのドライバーさんに聞いて周りました。
結局は迎えのバスが来るまで２０分ほど時間がありました。
誰も傘を持っていない中、戸外で小雨に濡れながら全員が右往左往している姿はまさに滑稽でした。
余裕をもってお迎えに来てもらえると皆安心出来ると思います。
よって、★三つです。

Such a great experience Dan was an awesome, he took the time in explaining everything and helping me out. This was the best experience ever!

This was my husband and I's first trip to Maui. We knew we wanted to do something adventurous but also relaxing for an excursion. The snorkel trip to Lanai was just what we were looking for. We ended up snorkeling at two different areas that day; first, at sweetheart point on Lanai, and then another spot around Lahaina on Maui. We would have stayed longer at sweetheart since it is more secluded, but there were just a couple of passengers who had spotted jellyfish in the water, so the captain made the decision to move elsewhere. As we were traveling back to Maui, we were lucky enough to see not just one, but two pods of Hawaiian spinner Dolphins. This was definitely the best part of the trip that day. They were very active dolphins and would swim along side the boat for minutes at a time. After we made it to the second snorkeling spot on Maui, a few passengers spotted a sea turtle swimming near an old abanded pier. The crew was also very kind and helpful and made sure that our safety was their priority. Food was great as well. We hope to do this excursion again someday and would recommend it to all!

I wasn't sure what a sandbar was, but I participated anyway. It was a wonderful place. I was able to see a lot of sea turtles, and snorkeling was fun. It felt like I was in an aquarium with so many fish around. The hamburger that was prepared when I got hungry was also delicious.

サンドバーがどんなものかあまりわからず参加。
とても素敵な所でした。
ウミガメもたくさん見ることができたし、シュノーケルも楽しかった。水族館に入ったかのようにお魚いっぱいでした。
お腹がすいたころに用意されたハンバーガーもおいしかったです。

Amazing experience! Dan is very funny and nice, a great guide. Everything was perfectly organized, in every detail. Hanauma Bay is truly spectacular, Dan guided us in a long route in the bay. It was great, we saw a lot of fishes, and Dan took plenty of pics (much better than mine!). He was most helpful also during the trip to Hanauma Bay! A must-do when in Honolulu!

What a great time! Crew was awesome, kind and patient. Tended to everyone's needs to make sure the trip was enjoyable. Thanks to Doug for taking my call (every morning) to see if we would be able to snorkel since the weather wasn't cooperating. Christine from jersey.

We participated as a group of 12 people, including six children (three aged 5 and three elementary school students) and six adults from three families. Our family used this service for the second consecutive year! Due to the large number of participants, we split into two boats: one with mostly Japanese passengers and the other with a mix of foreigners and a few Japanese. Based on the children's request, we boarded the boat with more foreigners. However, there were also Japanese guides, and the announcements were made separately for Japanese and foreigners, with us receiving information in Japanese.

We departed from the hotel at 9:00 AM, and thanks to the good timing of the tides, there were spots at the sandbar where the 5-year-olds could stand, and they had a great time with the floaties. The adults set up a court with poles right there, and we played beach volleyball. During the sea turtle watching, we spotted several turtles, and those who entered the water early encountered a large resting turtle very close to the entry point! It seemed to swim away after some noise, so those who entered later missed it, but those who saw it were lucky. We were able to float and observe the turtle for several minutes right above it! It might be better to prepare for snorkeling early to increase your chances. They also provided free rental vests, fins, and snorkels for the kids, which was convenient.

We brought our own floaties, but there were also several floating tubes available on the boat that we used (the 5-year-old was taken with a floatie, vest, and floating tube to see the sea turtles). During snorkeling, there were areas with a depth of several meters, and since it was all coral, there were no areas where you could stand. The distance from the boat to the coral area where the turtles were was about 10 meters, so as long as the children are not afraid of deep water, they should be fine. There were also many beautiful small fish. I think it would be better to change clothes before getting on the return bus since it can be cold. We brought one rental beach towel for each child from the hotel, which was a good decision. The hamburgers for lunch were delicious! The beer we had on the boat after swimming (additional charge, settled upon disembarking) was also excellent. We used the same tour for two consecutive years, and we were fully satisfied as we could feel the essence of Hawaii!

5-10才までの子ども６人（５才３人小学生３人）、大人６人計３家族１２人のグループで参加しました。小生家族は昨年に続き２年連続の利用です！人数が多かったため日本人ばかりの船と、外国人＋日本人少しの船に別れ、子どものリクエスト！により外人が多い方に乗船しました。といっても、ガイドは日本人の方もいて、途中案内は日本人外人別々に、我々には日本語で行って頂けました。朝9:00ホテル発でしたが潮のタイミングが良く、サンドバーでは５才の子ども達も立つことが出来るような場所もあり、浮き輪で充分楽しめました。大人はその場でポールを立ててコートを作ってくれたので、ビーチバレーで遊びました。ウミガメウオッチでは何匹かのカメを発見、シュノーケリングでは早くに海に入った人が、エントリーポイントすぐ近くにいたかなりでかいお休み中のカメに遭遇！途中で騒がしかったのか泳いで行ってしまい、後から入った人は見れませんでしたが見れた人はラッキーでした。数分間は休んでいるカメの真上でぷかぷか浮きながら観察できました！早めにシュノーケリングの準備をして入った方がチャンスがあるのかも。子供用のベスト、フィン、シュノーケルも無料で貸して頂けたので便利でした。浮き輪も持参しましたが、浮き輪代わりの浮くチューブは何本も船に用意してありそれも利用しました（５才児は浮き輪＋ベスト＋浮くチューブで連れて行きウミガメを見せることができました。シュノーケリングの時は水深数メートルのところもある上、サンゴばかりで立つことが出来るエリアはありません。船からサンゴエリア・ウミガメのいたところまで10mほどでしたので、水と深いのが怖くなければ子どもも大丈夫だと思います。きれいな小さな魚もたくさんいました）。帰りのバスは寒いので着替えてから乗車した方が良いと思います。ホテルのプール用のレンタルバスタオルを子どもの分も１人１枚持参しましたが正解でした。昼食のハンバーガーは美味しかったです！泳ぎ終わった後、船の上で飲んだビール（別料金、下船時に精算）も最高でした。２年続けて同じツアーを利用しましたがハワイらしさを感じることができ、充分満足でした！

I participated in the same tour five years ago, but unfortunately, the weather was bad, so I decided to try again this time. This time, we were blessed with good weather and had a wonderful time! The blue sea, the blue sky, and I was able to see about three sea turtles up close multiple times! I'm glad I went for the revenge tour♪ I recommend participating for anyone going to Hawaii!

5年前にも同じツアーに参加したのですが、運悪く天気が悪かったので今回リベンジしました。
今回は天候にも恵まれ楽しい時間を過ごすことができました！
青い海、青い空、海ガメも３頭くらい、何度も身近で見ることができました！
リベンジしてよかったです♪
ハワイに行かれる方は参加することをオススメします！

The weather in Kaneohe is very changeable, so it depended on the weather. It would have been more enjoyable if the sunny weather had lasted longer, but it got cold when it was cloudy... However, I was glad to see the clear ocean and the honu (sea turtles).

カネオヘの天気はすごく変わりやすいので天気次第でした。
晴れがずっと続いたらもっと楽しかったんですが、曇ると寒い…
でも、澄んだ海やホヌが見れたので、よかったです。

I couldn't fly on the reserved day due to the weather, so I rebooked for two days later, but again the weather was not good. It's sunny in Waikoloa, but the Hilo side was not. On both days, I had watched all the emergency evacuation and safety confirmation videos during the flight, but in the end, a staff member came out from the office and said, "I'm sorry."

Since it's nature, these things can happen. In the end, a Japanese pilot named TOSHI came out and said, "I'm really sorry this time. Please come again next time! We're waiting for you," and he handed me his business card with a refreshing greeting. I was very happy with this kind consideration. I hope to ride in TOSHI's helicopter next year for sure.

予約した日にお天気の関係で飛べず、再チャレンジで２日後に予約しましたが、またまたお天気がNGでダメでした。ワイコロアは晴天なんですけどね、ヒロ側がダメで。両日ともフライト中の緊急避難や安全確認のビデオも全部見終わっていたんですが、最後に事務所からスタッフの方が出てこられて「ごめんなさいね」と。
自然相手ですからこういうこともありますね。
最後に日本人パイロットのTOSHIさんが出てこられて「今回は本当に残念です。次の機会に是非来てくださいね！お待ちしています」と名刺を渡してくださって爽やかにご挨拶してくださいました。こういう心遣い、とても嬉しかったです。来年こそTOSHIさんのヘリに乗せていただきたいです。

From 8 AM to around 2 PM, you can leisurely enjoy the waters of Hawaii. I participated with my 7-year-old daughter (who had a rental life jacket and brought her own goggles), my mother (who had a rental float and a rental snorkeling set), and my father (who also had a rental snorkeling set). We were able to relax more than we expected.

The crew was cheerful, bright, and kind, and the onboard restroom was spacious and clean. For lunch, the crew cooked hamburgers and hot dogs on the boat (with smoke billowing), and we could choose our favorites to put in buns. Since we were on a boat, it was a bit bumpy, but the open atmosphere made it enjoyable.

The boat doesn’t sway much, and the sea breeze is truly refreshing. However, if you're concerned about sunburn or are traveling with children, it’s better to line up a bit early to secure indoor seating on the first floor. It can get hot, though. About 30% of the seats are indoors on the first floor, while 70% are on the second floor (the central part has a vinyl roof for shade, but the first floor is more reliable). The first floor also has all the windows open, allowing the breeze in and providing a nice view. I think it would be good for the kids and mothers to have long-sleeve rash guards and UV hats that can get wet (my daughter got a sunburn on her scalp after just two hours of snorkeling).

We didn’t have any issues with English, but the crew explains everything in English, so if you feel anxious about that, it’s good to prepare yourself a bit. However, I think you can understand what’s happening by observing those around you. There were only a few Japanese participants.

The snorkeling area was calm, with almost no waves and high visibility, allowing us to see many fish. However, there were also people from other tours, which felt a bit crowded compared to the Hawaiian vibe.

I highly recommend it.

朝の８時から２時ぐらいまで、ゆっくりハワイの海を楽しめます。
７歳の娘（貸し出し用ライフジャケット＋持参ゴーグル）と母（貸し出し用浮き輪＋貸し出し用シュノーケルセット）と父（貸し出し用シュノーケルセット）での参加でしたが、思った以上にリラックスして参加できました。
クルーも陽気で明るく親切、船内のトイレも大きくきれいです。ランチのハンバーガーとホットドックも船上でクルーが調理してくれ（煙モクモク出てました）好きなものをパンに挟んでいただく形式です。船の上なので多少ガサガサしますが、開放的な雰囲気で楽しいです。
船はそんなに揺れませんし海風は本当に気持ち良いですが、日焼けに気を付けたい方やお子さん連れの方は１階の屋内の席を確保する為、少し早目に乗船の列に並んだ方が良いです。これが暑いんですけど。座席は３割が１階屋内、７割が２階（中央部分はビニールの屋根がついているので日よけにはなりますが、１階の方が確実です）。１階も窓全開なので風が入って景色も見えて気持ちいいですよ。でもお子さんとお母さんは長袖ラッシュガード＆お子さんは濡れても良いUV帽子があるといいと思います（娘は２時間のシュノーケリングであっという間に頭皮日焼けです）。
私たちは英語の心配はなかったので問題はなかったのですが、クルーは英語ですべてを説明しますので、ここに不安を感じる方は少し心の準備を。ただ、周りの方の動きを見ていれば何が起こっているかはわかると思いますが。日本人は２，３組の参加でした。
シュノーケリングポイントのエリアは波もないと言っていいぐらい穏やかで透明度も高く沢山の魚を見ることが出来ます。ただ、このツアー以外のツアーの人々も勿論いらして、ちょっとハワイの感覚からすると人口密度が高く感じますけれども。
お勧めです。

I stayed at the Sheraton Kona, and it was very close to the meeting point, just a 2-3 minute walk from the hotel entrance, which made me feel secure about participating.

Although the staff only spoke English, they were very kind, so I didn't feel particularly anxious about reconfirming over the phone on the day of the event. I was the only Japanese participant at that time, and most others seemed to be from the mainland United States. There were elderly individuals who needed canes to walk, as well as a few babies just a few months old, but everyone was enjoying themselves in their own way. They provide everything you need for snorkeling, such as fins, goggles, and flotation devices, so you can go hands-free without any issues.

The boat was larger than I expected, accommodating over 50 people. It had a diving platform and a slide, allowing for various ways to enjoy Kealakekua Bay.

Breakfast consisted of light items like muffins and fruit, while lunch was a style where you could assemble your own burger or hot dog with meat grilled on the boat. I had a burger, and it was delicious.

I debated between the afternoon course and the morning one, but the two-hour option flew by, so I recommend the longer morning course.

シェラトン・コナに滞在していましたが、集合場所までホテル玄関から徒歩2,3分ととても近く安心して参加できました。

英語のみですが、スタッフの方はとても親切なので電話のリコンファームも当日も特に不安を感じることはありません。このときの日本人参加者は私だけで、ほかはほとんどがアメリカ本土の方のようでした。歩くのに杖が必要な高齢の方もいらっしゃいましたし、生後数ヶ月の赤ちゃんもいましたが、みんな思い思いに楽しんでいました。フィンやゴーグル、浮き具などシュノーケリングに必要なものはすべて貸してくれますので手ぶらで問題ありません。

船は思ったより大きく、50人以上は乗っていました。飛び込み台や滑り台もついていて、ケアラケクア湾ではさまざまな遊び方をすることができます。

朝食はマフィンやフルーツなど軽いものですが、昼食は船の上で焼いてくれたお肉でバーガーかホットドッグを自分で盛り付けて食べるスタイルで、バーガーを食べましたがおいしかったです。

午後のコースと悩みましたが、2時間でもあっという間でしたので、午前の長いコースがおすすめです。

It was a great excursion I will recommend to everyone , I will go again

As someone who grew up on Oahu, I'm skeptical of all the overhyped promises to tourist, but this trip really delivered. I tooky husband and an out of town guest and not only did we see multiple honu, the crew was just super. They were extra helpful with newbies to snorkeling and made everyone feel very welcome.

You can rent a safety box at the rental shop, so you can go to the beach hands-free. We took out pizza and had lunch on the beach. I heard there’s also BBQ on weekdays.

レンタルショップでセーフティボックスが借りられるので手ぶらでビーチに行けます。ピザをテイクアウトして海岸でランチしました。平日はBBQもあるそうです。

The entire crew on the "Pride of Maui" was wonderful and caring. The trip was awesome. The weather was in our favor. We went out to the Molokini crater and snorkeled while there my son and I tried snuba for the first time and loved it. The guide for that was very knowledgeable and helpful. The videographer was very concerned to get everyone's picture. We moved to a different location to see the turtles and again the crew was concerned that everyone got to see a few of them. The food on board was also enjoyable. The only downside for me and my kids was that it didn't last longer.

Amazing service! The transportation serbice providers were always on time. They call you a day before to remind you of your reservation.

I was moved by the experience of rafting and being able to see dolphins up close! It's a rare opportunity in Japan to see them that closely, so I think it was a very valuable experience.

Also, diving into the sea to see fish and coral was, of course, impressive, but the sandwiches, snacks, and fruits we ate on the boat tasted exceptionally good! The boat sped through the sea and made turns! It was thrilling, and I had a lot of fun throughout the experience.

The guide was very kind and made it easy for us Japanese participants to understand by adding gestures.

At first, I was scared because of the speed, but the guide was so entertaining that it turned out to be a great experience. On the way to snorkeling, I was moved by how many dolphins we encountered. I even got to see them jump up close. Snorkeling was great too, as I saw many coral reefs and schools of fish.

Lunch was fulfilling, and the guide cut fresh pineapple and oranges right in front of us. On the way back, we went near an area where we could see various layers of earth and received explanations. I am very satisfied with the experience, which is something I can't do much in Japan.

ラフティングを体験して、
イルカにあんなに近くで見れたことに感動しました！日本ではなかなかあんなに近くで見れないのですごく貴重な体験だと思います。
あと、海にもぐって魚や、サンゴを見れたことはもちろん感動しましたが、船の上で食べるサンドイッチやお菓子、フルーツは格別に美味しく感じました！
船がすごいスピードで海をかけぬけたり
船が回ったり！すごくスリリングで終始楽しく過ごせました。
ガイドさんもすごく親切な方で日本人の私達にも丁寧にジェスチャーも加えて分かり易いように教えてくれました！
みなほ
体験してみて、初めはスピードが早くて怖かったけどガイドさんがおもしろくてとてもいい経験になりました。シュノーケリングに行く途中には、イルカにたくさん会えたので感動しました。間近でジャンプをしたところも見えました。シュノーケリングもサンゴ礁や魚の群れがたくさん見れてよかったです。お昼ご飯も充実していて、ガイドさんが目の前でパイナップルやオレンジを切ってくれました。帰りには色々な地層の見える土地の近くに行き、説明してもらいました。日本ではあまりできない経験が出来てとても満足しています

I enrolled the day after arriving in Hawaii. The pickup for enrollment was at 6:10 AM. We had orientation on the bus. Thanks to the staff, I was sleepy at this point but gradually got more excited. In the first hour, I got to meet several dolphin professors, and then we changed locations to meet a large number of faculty members. I was very satisfied to see the dolphin professors perform their spins. In the second hour, at first, the turtle professor was in a bad mood and we couldn't meet him. Just when I thought he finally showed up, he appeared right in front of me. By this time, I was quite tired, and keeping up with the classes at my age was a bit challenging... The staff noticed I was tired and handed me a buoy, which was a great help. In gym class, there were some waves, and I tried stand-up paddleboarding but couldn't stand up well, so I got back on the boat early and went for lunch. After that, I had a really fun time with hula, and I graduated safely. Thank you to all the staff, dolphin, and turtle professors.

ハワイに着いた翌日に入学しました。入学は早朝6時10分にピックアップ。
バスの中でのオリエンテーション。スタッフのおかげで、この時点で眠いけど徐々にテンション上がる。一時間目のイルカ教授の時間は一度目は数等のイルカ教授に会うことができ、もう一度場所を変え、今度は、大量の教授陣。イルカ教授のスピンを見ることができ大満足。二時間目は最初、亀教授はご機嫌斜めでなかなか会えず。やっと登場したと思ったらなんと目の前に。このあたりでかなり疲れ、還暦にはちょっと授業についていくのが・・・スタッフが疲れたのを察知し浮きを渡してくれ、助かりました。体育の授業は少し波が有りスタンドアップパドルに挑戦しましたがなかなか立てず、早々にボートにあがり、給食に。そのあとフラと本当に楽しく、そして無事、卒業。スタッフの皆さん、イルカ、亀教授ありがとう。

Although it was supposed to be a Japanese guide, the bus from the pickup point to the destination was entirely in English with a foreign guide. Moreover, the guide spoke loudly in English, continuously rambling about things that made no sense, which was not only noisy but also very unpleasant. On the return bus, unfortunately, it was the same foreign guide, and there was no proper explanation or guidance, leaving some people confused about which bus to take.

日本語ガイドの筈なのに、ピックアップから現地までのバスの中は外人ガイドで全て英語でした。しかもでかい声で英語でず〜と訳わからないことをしゃべり続けられて、うるさいだけでなく非常に不快でした。帰りのバスに乗る時も、残念ながら同じ外人のガイドで、説明も案内もまともになく、どのバスに乗っていいのかもわからず困っている方もいらっしゃいました。

I participated in the morning session with three friends. Most of the other participants were Japanese as well.

On the boat, there were thorough explanations about the direction to see sea turtles and how to snorkel at the sandbar, making it a fun experience that exceeded the cost of the tour. If the timing is right, it seems the sandbar also appears above the water's surface, so I think it's worth experiencing at least once if you go to Oahu.

午前の回に友人3人と参加しました。まわりの参加者もほぼ日本人でした。
船上ではウミガメの見える方角や、サンドバーについてからのシュノーケリングの方法など、アクティビティの説明もしっかりとあり、ツアー金額以上に楽しい体験ができました。時期が合えばサンドバーも海面に顔を出しているようですし、オアフ島に行くなら一度は体験してみるのもいいと思います。
