I participated with my mother and son. Unfortunately, my son was in a bad mood and we couldn't go into the sea, but the scenery was beautiful, and the food we had on the boat (sandwiches and salads) was delicious, so we were very satisfied! There were sea turtles that often come to play swimming around the boat, and they were so cute. The staff also noticed that we were staying on the boat and talked to us. We couldn't go into the sea this time, but I definitely want to go again when my son is a little older.
母と息子と参加しました☆
残念ながら息子のご機嫌が悪く、海に入ることはできませんてしたが、景色も綺麗で、船で食べる料理(サンドイッチやサラダ)も美味しく、とっても大満足でした!
よく遊びに来ると言う海亀が船の周りでずっと泳いでいてかわいかった(*^^*)
海に入れず船に残っている私たちにも気づかってスタッフの方もお話ししてくれました♪
今回は海には入れませんでしたが、また息子が少し大きくなったら絶対行きたいです(^^)

I was worried about the weather, but we were blessed with good weather, and the sandbar had very nice conditions with water up to my ankles. The staff's response was wonderful, and I was able to have a great time. Since it can be quite cold on the water during this season, I recommend bringing long sleeves in addition to a towel. I also encountered a sea turtle, and it was a very good activity. I definitely want to participate again.
天気は心配していましたが好天に恵まれ、サンドバーも足首程度までの海水でとてもいい条件でした。
スタッフの対応も素晴らしく、楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。この時期海上はかなり寒いのでタオル以外に長袖の持参をオススメします。
ウミガメにも出会えたしとてもよいアクティビティーでした。是非また参加したいと思います。

Since it was March, it was a bit chilly. I recommend participating in this tour during warmer times. The water was cold, and we walked towards the sandbar while enduring it a little. If you’re not good with the cold, definitely bring a rash guard! When I participated, there was no beach, and I was about 20 centimeters submerged in water at the sandbar. So, if you’re aiming for a complete beach experience, it might be better to check the timing. As for snorkeling, I thought we would be doing it in shallow areas, but it was actually quite deep, which might be tough for first-timers, children, or those who aren’t strong swimmers. My mother, who was with me, said she was scared and watched from the board. However, while we were on the boat, we saw a manta ray and a sea turtle, which was very exciting! I heard that on lucky days, you can see both!
時期が3月という事もあり肌寒かったです。こちらのツアーは温かい時期に参加される事をオススメします。水も冷たく、少し我慢しながらサンドバーめがけてあるいていきました。寒いのが苦手な方はぜひラッシュガードを!私が参加したときは、砂浜はでてこず、サンドバーでも20センチ位水につかっていました。なので、完全な砂浜を目的にしている方は時期を確認されていてからの方が良いかもしれませんね。シュノーケリングは、浅い所でやるのかと思いきや、結構深い所だったので、初めてシュノーケリングする方や子供さんや泳ぎが不得意という方には厳しいかもしれません。同行した母は、怖いといってボードで見ていました。でも、ボートで走っている途中では、マンタとウミガメが見れ、とても感激しました!運が良い日は両方見られるらしいですよ!

We just took this trip last week and had a great time. This was our first time snorkeling and the staff was so helpful in getting our gear ready and giving us pointers on what to do to make the most of our snorkeling adventure. We did see whales, dolphins and sea turtles!! The lunch was great! I would definitely make this a stop for us again in the future.

This time in Hawaii, we weren't blessed with good weather, as there was a storm with rain and wind right up until the day before the tour. On the day of the tour, when we left Honolulu, the weather was still bad, and I was worried. However, when we arrived at the location, it was cloudy but slightly sunny. Yay! The sandbar was a place I had wanted to visit for a long time, and I was really glad I finally got to go. It was a wonderful place.
Additionally, I want to express my gratitude to our driver, Frankie Sakai, who was very kind on the way there, and to Yumi, who was also very helpful on the way back. Our guide on the boat, Yuta, was full of energy and made the experience enjoyable.
My son and his wife haven't been to the sandbar, so I will definitely recommend it to them.
今回のハワイは天候に恵まれず、ツアーの前日まで雨・風のストーム。当日もホノルルを出発した時は天気が悪く心配しましたが、現地に着いた時は曇からやや晴れ気味。やったぜ。サンドバーは以前から行ってみたかったところ、今回実現して、やっぱり来てよかったと思いました。素晴らしいところでした。
それに行きのドラーバー・フランキーサカイさん、帰りのユミさんととても親切で感謝しています。また、船上のガイドのユウタ君もとても元気で楽しかったです。
息子夫婦もサンドバーには行ってないとのことなので、是非薦めておきます。

The ocean is beautiful, anyway. Unlike Waikiki Beach, you definitely should visit the white sandbar. However, it was windy and quite cold that day, so I refrained from snorkeling. But a sea turtle came really close, approaching the people who were snorkeling, as if it were swimming alongside them. I captured that moment from the boat, and it was an incredibly valuable experience that left me very impressed.
とにかく海が綺麗。ワイキキビーチとはまた違って、白いサンドバーには是非行ってみるべき。ただ、風もあり、しかもその日は寒かったので、シュノーケルは遠慮してしまいました。が、ウミガメが本当に近くまでやってきて、シュノーケル体験をしている人たちの所へ行き、まるで一緒に泳いでいるかのように目の前まで来てくれました。私はそれをボートの上から撮影しましたが、大変貴重な体験をする事ができ、大感激でした。

The sea was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the staff were fun, which was great. I thought it would be convenient to prepare a waterproof camera in advance (you can buy one there). It was disappointing that I could only see the turtles from a distance. I was able to see them up close when I went to the North Shore.
海もきれいで、ごはんもおいしくて、スタッフの方も楽しくてよかったです。あらかじめ防水用のカメラを用意しておくと便利かなと思いました。(中で買えます)
カメが意外と遠目に見るだけだったのが残念。ノースショアに行った時の方が間近にみれました。

At the request of my children, we decided to go snorkeling! I wanted to do something unique that we couldn't do elsewhere, so I chose this tour. Captain Dennis had a high dolphin sighting rate, and MIKA's cheerful personality was a plus. The tour was conducted with a small group. On the day of the tour, it was just two repeat customers and our family of four, so we had almost a private experience. Of course, we saw plenty of dolphins. And surprisingly, we even encountered a manta ray... It was truly magical and healing.

The day started with heavy rain from the previous day, and it was still raining quite a bit on the day of the tour. The tour company even called to ask if we wanted to cancel, but we believed it would clear up and decided to go, and that was the right choice! As we were on the boat heading to the sandbar, the rain stopped, and for a brief moment, we even saw some sunshine! Many people canceled that day, so the tour had a small number of participants, which made it feel like a private experience, and we really enjoyed it. Standing in the middle of the ocean at the sandbar felt very strange and magical!
The barbecue on the boat was delicious, we spotted some turtles, and even though I was nervous about snorkeling for the first time, it was a lot of fun! The staff were all really nice and amazing! I highly recommend this tour!
この日は前日から激しい雨が降っていて当日もかなり雨が降っていてツアーの会社からもキャンセルするかの電話があったのですが、晴れることを信じてツアーに望んだんですが正解でした!船に乗ってサンドバーに向かっていると雨がやんで一瞬だったけど日差しも見えました!この日はキャンセルした人が多く、少数人数でのツアーだったので貸切状態でとっても満喫できました。サンドバーは海の中心に立っているみたいですごく不思議な感じがしますよ!
船の上のバーベキューもおいしかったし、カメも発見出来たし、初めてのシュノーケリングも緊張したけど楽しかったです!

I participated on a cloudy day with lower temperatures. The rain from the previous day made the water visibility somewhat poor. Compared to a sunny day, I think the experience loses quite a bit of its charm. Still, it was enjoyable to see sea turtles and underwater fish. The experience of standing in the middle of the ocean was very precious. The explanations during snorkeling and the attention to safety were thorough, making it a tour that beginners can join with confidence. The meals were all delicious and served buffet-style, allowing us to choose what we liked. I requested a DVD, but the final product was not as good as I had hoped. It included several clips where my eyes were closed and others where people intruded, which left me feeling very disappointed, especially since I paid extra for it. I really wanted to preserve those important memories, so it's quite regrettable. While the weather is beyond anyone's control, I hope they can improve the quality of the photos. Overall, it was a very enjoyable tour.
曇り空で気温も低めの日に参加しました。
前日の雨で海の透明度がやや悪かったです。
晴れた日と比べてしまうと良さはかなり下がると思います。
それでもウミガメや水中の魚を見ることが出来たりと楽しい内容になっています。
海の真ん中に自分たちが立っているという体験はとても貴重なものでした。
シュノーケリングの時の説明や安全面への配慮もしっかりしていて
初心者の方でも安心して参加できるツアーだと思います。
食事は好きなものを自分で取る形でどれもすごくおいしかったです。
DVDをお願いしましたが出来上がりは期待していたよりもイマイチな出来でした。
目を閉じてしまっているものや他の人が入り込んだものも複数含まれていて
追加料金を出してまで頼んだのにこんなものかとすごく嫌な気分です。
大切な思い出をちゃんと残したかったのに残念でしかたありません。

On March 4, 2012, I participated in a tour with Aloha Kona Tours for my honeymoon. During this time, if you're lucky, you can see not only dolphins but also whales.
We were fortunate enough to encounter whales. Moreover, we were much closer than typical whale watching experiences (within 10 meters). In fact, they were swimming right under the boat. On our way back after swimming with the dolphins, a whale jumped right in front of us. I was so excited that I couldn't say anything other than "Wow!" (It was the same for Mr. Nawata from Aloha Kona Tours, right? lol)
There are various discussions about Japan's whaling practices, but I think this experience is one that everyone should have if possible. It had a significant impact on my personal perspective.
There were also plenty of dolphins. I was able to swim while dolphins were right in front of me. Experiencing "swimming with a pod of dolphins" is something you definitely can't do in Japan. Dolphins are just so cute, and there were even mother and baby pairs. I was able to swim multiple times by anticipating the movement of the pod. I got so excited that I swam too much.
As for what to bring, in addition to swimwear, it's a good idea to have a waterproof digital camera. I'll post some photos as well.
Thanks to Mr. Nawata and Ms. Tsuyako from Aloha Kona Tours, I had a safe and incredibly fun experience. (In fact, they were enjoying it with us, too! lol) Honestly, if you're going to the Big Island, you should definitely join this tour.
2012年3月4日にハネムーンでAloha Kona Toursのツアーに参加しました。
この時期は運が良ければイルカだけでなく、クジラも見ることが出来ます。
私たちは正にそれで、クジラと遭遇できました。
しかも、よくあるホエールウォッチングとは比較にならない近さでした。(10m以内)
というかボートの下を通ってました。
また、イルカと泳いだ帰りにも目の前でクジラがジャンプしました。
興奮しすぎて「すげぇ!」以外の言葉が出てこなかったです。
(Aloha Kona Tours縄田さんもでしたよねw)
日本人は調査捕鯨の話などでいろいろありますが、この体験は出来ればした方がいいと思いました。
私個人の考え方にとてもインパクトを与えました。
イルカもたくさん居ました。
目の前にイルカが居る状態で泳げました。
「イルカの群れと泳ぐ」なんて体験は絶対に日本では出来ません。
イルカはとにかくカワイイです。親子連れとかも居ました。
群れの移動に先回りして何回も泳ぐことが出来ました。
テンション上がり過ぎて泳ぎ過ぎました。
持ち物としては水着等以外にも防水タイプのデジカメがあった方がいいです。
写真も投稿しておきます。
Aloha Kona Tours縄田さん・つやこさんのおかげで、安全にとても楽しい体験が出来ました。
(むしろ一緒になって楽しんでましたね(笑))
お世辞抜きにハワイ島へ行くならこのツアーに参加すべきです。

Since I am into diving, I went for snorkeling in the bay without expecting too much. It was beautiful.
There were plenty of fish, the reef was stunning, and the water clarity was high.
I think the clarity was comparable to that of the remote islands in Okinawa.
Drinks, snacks, and pineapples were all-you-can-eat.
On the way back, we encountered a pod of dolphins, and further away, there were whales.
It was fun on the large boat without any seasickness.
ダイビングやってるので湾でのシュノーケル、まぁそこまで期待しすぎず行きました。美しかったです。
魚も豊富リーフも美しい、透明度も高い。
透明度は沖縄の離島クラスかと思います
ドリンク、お菓子、パイナップルが食べ放題でした。
帰りにイルカの群れに遭遇、さらに遠くにはクジラ。
大きな船で船酔いも無く楽しかったです。

I want to go again next time.

Title: An Unforgettable Experience
I participated in a dolphin cruise. Before seeing the dolphins, we encountered whales. I believe it's called breaching. The sight of a whale jumping high with its belly facing up was truly breathtaking.
We also met a mother whale with her baby, and I got to hear the sounds of the whales, which were very soothing, almost like singing.
When we arrived at the point where the dolphin pod was, I was amazed.
There were dolphins everywhere!
While snorkeling, dolphins were zipping past me on both sides, and there must have been around 200 of them.
Underwater, I could hear the adorable sounds of the dolphins making "kyu kyu" noises.
According to our guide, encountering such a large group was incredibly lucky.
There were dolphins swimming with leaves in their mouths, teasing us by picking them up and letting them go, which was really cute.
Even just watching from the boat, I enjoyed seeing dolphins jumping all around.
Swimming with dolphins has been a dream of mine for many years, so encountering such a large group was thrilling.
It became my best memory in Hawaii. Thank you for the wonderful time.

Many snorkeling tours go far from Waikiki, but this tour's appeal was its convenience of not having to travel far.
The first half was snorkeling off the coast of Waikiki, and the second half was cruising up to Diamond Head.
I was a bit worried since it was an English tour, but it turned out to be such a fun experience that I didn't mind at all.
Depending on the day, the meeting time is at 7:30 AM, and it finishes in the morning, allowing you to schedule other activities in the afternoon. (In fact, I went on a tour to Manoa Falls that departed at 1 PM.)
Also, they took a commemorative photo before boarding, but when I tried to pick it up after disembarking, they asked for $15. I didn't have cash on me, so I declined, but I recommend bringing money if you want a keepsake.
シュノーケリングのツアーはワイキキから車で遠いところに行くものが多いのですが、このツアーはワイキキから遠出しない手軽さが魅力でした。
前半はワイキキ沖でシュノーケリング、後半はダイヤモンドヘッド沖までクルージングという内容でした。
英語ツアーということで若干心配でしたが、そんなことは気にならなくなるぐらい楽しいツアーでした。
曜日にもよりますが、7時半集合で午前中に終わるので、午後に別の予定を入れることも可能です。
(実際、13時発のマノア滝のツアーに行きました。)
なお、乗船前に記念写真を撮ってもらったのですが、下船時に受け取ろうとしたら「15ドル」とのことでした。
僕は手持ちがなかったので断ったのですが、記念に欲しい方はお金を用意していかれることをおすすめします。

I had never tried snorkeling before. If I had been doing it alone, I definitely wouldn't have gone far, and I don't think I would have found any fish or turtles. The guide taught us carefully, and despite the waves being a bit high, I was able to swim far with peace of mind and even meet a turtle. This is an experience I can't have in Japan, so it was very enjoyable. The sight of the guide earnestly searching for fish was also impressive.
シュノーケルなんてやったことありませんでした。
多分、一人でやってたら、遠くまで行くなんて絶対しなかっただろうし、魚も亀も見つけられなかったと思います。
ガイドさんが丁寧に教えてくださり、ちょっと波が高かったにもかかわらず、安心して遠くまで泳ぐことができ、また亀にも会うことができました。
こんな経験日本ではできないので、とても楽しかったです。
