All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

It might be a bit different than what you imagine from the guidebook. The water was somewhat cold, and even when we arrived at the sandbar, the water was up to my knees. Snorkeling was amazing. The coral was very close, and we saw sea turtles swimming. Even though meals were provided, the interior of the boat was very clean and pleasant. I definitely want to try this again at a different time.

ガイドブックを想像して参加すると少し違うかも。
若干水も冷たくて、サンドバーに到着しても膝上まで水がありました。
シューノケリングは最高です。珊瑚もすぐ近くでウミガメも泳いでます。
食事も提供しているのに、船内がとても綺麗で気持ちが良かったです。
また時期を変えて、是非チャレンジしてみたいです。

I participated with my 70-year-old mother. She was a bit anxious because she had injured her foot, but our guide Daisuke was very kind and supportive, and my mother was really happy to see the dolphins swimming up close. I was also worried because I didn't have confidence in swimming, but I did my best to enter the sea as guided, and I was deeply moved to encounter the wild, powerful swimming dolphins. It's a sight you can never see in an aquarium. Nothing surpasses nature.

We were really lucky that there were only four of us for a capacity of ten that day. To all the seniors out there, I think you should definitely challenge yourselves, as my 70-year-old mother was able to participate. The dolphins underwater show faces you've never seen before.

70歳になる母と参加しました。
母は足を怪我していてちょっと不安がっていましたが、ガイドのダイスケさんが
親切にフォローして下さり、間近でイルカが泳ぐ姿を見れてとても喜んでいました。
私も泳ぎに自信がないので不安に思っていましたが、誘導された通りに頑張って海に入り、野生の力強い泳ぎのイルカちゃん達に出会え、とても感激しました。
水族館では決して見られない光景です。
やっぱり自然に勝るものはないですね。

１０名の定員に対してこの日は４人で本当にラッキーでした。
シニアのみなさん。７０歳の母も行けましたのでどんどん挑戦された方がいいと思います。
水中のイルカは見たことのない顔を見せてくれますよ。

I wasn't feeling very well on the day of the event. I participated with some worry, but I was very happy that the crew was considerate.

The snorkeling was quite cold! I'm glad I could have a warm drink. Unfortunately, the sandbar wasn't very visible, and the water came up to about my knees, but I would like to come back at a better time. Thank you!

当日ちょっと体調があまりよくなくて。せっかく来たのだからと心配しながらの参加でしたが、
クルーの方が気遣いして下さってとてもうれしかったです。

シュノーケリングはかなり寒かったですね！温かい飲み物頂けてよかったです。
残念ながら、サンドバーはあまり見えていなくて膝上くらいまで海水きてましたが、また時期の良いときにリピしたいです。
ありがとうございました！

I participated in a company training.

We received various stories about the dolphins, and before departure, we were given explanations about safety precautions, which made me feel secure about the trip.

Captain Nawata's strong words, "We will do our best," and Daisuke's evident love for the dolphins really stood out.

With their extensive knowledge and experience, they took us ahead of time to the dolphins' route, allowing us to see many dolphins.

Even members who are not good swimmers seemed to be having a great time.

If I have the chance to visit the Big Island again, I would definitely like to ride on Captain Nawata and Daisuke's boat once more.

社員研修で参加しました。

イルカちゃんについてのお話もいろいろしていただけましたし、出港前に注意事項等の説明もしていただいて、安心して出発。

「うちが一番ねばります」と言う力強いお言葉の縄田キャプテンとイルカちゃんが大好きなんだなぁってゆうのが滲み出ているダイスケさん

お二人の豊富な知識と経験で先回り先回りしてイルカちゃんの通るルートに連れて行っていただけて、たくさんイルカちゃんに合わせていただけました。

泳ぎが苦手なメンバーもすごく楽しそうにしていました。

もしハワイ島に再訪することができたら、是非また縄田キャプテンとダイスケさんの船に乗せていただきたいと思います。

The sandbar, where the depth is visible through the colors, the sea turtles waving occasionally on the waves, and the hamburgers made with patties grilled on the boat… everything became a wonderful memory. I participated with my 2-year-old daughter, and we had a great time.

色合いで深さがわかるサンドバー、ときどき波の上で手を振るウミガメさん、船上で焼いたパテをはさみ、頬張ったハンバーガー…すべてが良き思い出となりました。2歳の娘を連れての参加でしたが、十分楽しめました。

We had a blast! It was the coolest experience we have ever had!

A tour just as the title suggests! The dream I always saw on TV became a reality! I was worried about seasickness, but we were fine (a few others experienced seasickness).

題名の通りのツアー！いつもＴＶで見ていた夢が現実になりました！
船酔いも心配でしたが、私たちは大丈夫でした（ほかの方は数名船酔い）

The staff was friendly, helpful and hospitable.
The snorkeling spot was perfect! We were able to swim inches from turtles, see all kinds of fish and the staff members brought an octopus and starfish to the surface for us to touch.
The sailing part afterwords was beautiful and the boat had a netted spot to sit in if you want to go on a Disneyland type splash ride.
The signature cocktail is delicious too!!
I can not recommend this enough!

I participated in the tour on October 30th.

Since I was joining with my elderly mother, we were both really anxious about whether we would be okay before going, but thanks to our guide Daisuke's kind escort, my mother, who was snorkeling for the first time, was able to see dolphins multiple times!! My mother hesitated to dive, worried that she might disturb others, but Captain Nawata encouraged her, saying, "Mom, you shouldn't think you're a bother. It's okay. Just follow Daisuke. Since you joined this tour, you have to see more dolphins!" Daisuke also reassured her, saying, "It's okay. I'm here with you!" and she was able to try multiple times. If it had been a larger group tour, I think my mother would have been left alone. However, Daisuke and the captain's enthusiasm and kindness to make the customers happy and to let them meet dolphins really came through.

I was also worried about seasickness since I'm weak on boats, but I was fine. The waves might have been calm, but the boat was shaped like a larger rafting boat, which allowed it to glide over the water's surface, minimizing the typical rocking of a boat. However, I think it's better for those who are worried about seasickness to take motion sickness medication beforehand, as you can't enjoy it if you get sick.

This tour was filled with the love for the Hawaiian sea, dolphins, and customers from guide Daisuke and Captain Nawata.

Actually, on the day I participated, we couldn't see any dolphins, which surprised even the captain. Just when I thought it was hopeless, we spotted a bottlenose dolphin and were able to try! Although we were running out of time, thanks to the captain's spirit, we were able to play until the very last moment! Thank you so much!!

I also felt a deep love for the dolphins. They didn't chase after dolphins that seemed unwilling to play and were always looking for dolphins that wanted to engage. Dolphins are emotional animals, and it seemed like they didn't want to do anything that would upset them; they wanted the dolphins to have fun too. I think many companies conduct dolphin tours just as a business, but I was really happy as a dolphin lover to see that the captain and Daisuke truly love dolphins and respect and care for them while conducting the tour. I've participated in various dolphin tours, but this was the tour where I felt the most "love."

The bottlenose dolphins I saw underwater were so cute, gentle, and divine, and while I was underwater, it felt like time was flowing very slowly. It felt like I was slightly intruding into the world where dolphins live. I had a truly wonderful experience. Next time, I want to see a large group of dolphins! I also want to see whales! So, I will participate again, and I look forward to it then.

Finally, thank you so much, Captain and Daisuke! My mother has been proudly telling various people about this experience since returning to Japan. I think she really enjoyed it. I'm truly happy to see my mother so excited like a child. Thank you very much!

10/30のツアーに参加したものです。

高齢の母との参加だったので、母も私も行く前は本当に大丈夫かとっても不安だったのですが、ガイドのダイスケさんの優しいエスコートのおかげで、シュノーケリング初体験の母も何度もイルカをみることができました！！
ほかの皆さんのご迷惑になるのでは？と潜ることに躊躇する母をキャプテンの縄田さんは、「お母さん、迷惑なんて思っちゃだめだ。大丈夫だから。だいすけについていけばいいだけなんだから。せっかくこのツアーに参加したんだからもっとイルカをみなくちゃ！」と励ましてくれて、ダイスケさんも「大丈夫です。僕がついてます！」と言ってくれ、何度もトライすることができました。大人数のツアーだったら、きっと母なんてほっとかれていたと思うんです。。でも、なんとかしてお客様を喜ばせたい！イルカと逢わせたい！！というダイスケさんとキャプテンの熱意と優しさがとても伝わってきました。

船に弱いので船酔いも心配だったのですが、大丈夫でした。
波も穏やかだったのかもしれませんが、ラフティングをするボートを大きくしたような形状だったので、水面を滑るように進み、船特有の揺れがあまりなかったのがよかったのだと思います。でも、船酔いが心配な人は酔い止めは飲んでいったほうがいいと思います。酔ったら、楽しめないですからね。

このツアーは、ガイドのダイスケさん、キャプテンの縄田さんのハワイの海への愛、イルカへの愛、お客さんへの愛がたくさん詰まったツアーでした。

実は、私が参加した日はキャプテンも驚くくらいイルカに会えず、、もうだめか、、と思っているときにバンドウイルカを発見し、トライすることができました！！だいぶ時間も押してしまいましたが、キャプテンたちの心意気で本当に時間ぎりぎりまで遊ぶことができました！！
本当にありがとうございます！！

また、イルカに対しても深い愛を感じることができました。遊びたくなさそうなイルカは深追いせず、遊んでくれそうなイルカを終始探していました。イルカも感情がある動物ですので、イルカが嫌がることはしたくない、イルカにも楽しんでいほしいと考えているように映りました。イルカツアーをただ商売としてやっている会社も多いと思いますが、キャプテンとダイスケさんはイルカのことが大好きでイルカのことも尊重し大事に考えながら、ツアーを催行してくれているんだなーとイルカ好きな私としてはとっても嬉しく思いました。
いろんなイルカツアーに参加しましたが、このツアーが一番「愛」を感じたツアーでした。

水中でみるバンドウイルカはとてもかわいくて、優しくて、神々しくて、水中にいる間、なんだかとっても時間がゆっくり流れているように感じました。イルカの住んでいる世界にちょっとお邪魔させてもらった、そんな感じです。本当に素晴らしい経験をさせてもらいました。
今度は、イルカの大群が見たいです！クジラも見たいです！
というわけで、また参加しますので、そのときはまたどうぞよろしくお願いします。

最後に、キャプテン、ダイスケさん、本当にありがとうございました！！母は日本に帰ってから、この体験を自慢げにいろんな人に話しています。本当に楽しかったんだと思います。子供のようにはしゃぐ母をみれて私も本当にうれしく思います。本当にありがとうございました！

I signed up for this tour because I was with my mother-in-law. It was an English tour, and I was happy that the crew took care of us. However, the water in October was cold, and there were some waves. Additionally, there weren't many fish, and there weren't many dolphins either. You can swim in the sea, but I think snorkeling might not be that great.

義理のお母さんと一緒なので、このツアーに申し込みました。英語ツアーでしたが、クルーの人たちは私達を気にかけてくれて嬉しかったです。
ただ、10月の海の水は冷たいのと少し波がたかかったです。あとは、あまり魚たちがおらず、イルカもあまりいませんでした。海では泳げますが、シュノーケルはいまいちかなと思います。

The weather was nice, but due to the season, it was a bit cold with the wind blowing. I was wearing a rash guard, so I managed to cope, but I might have caught a cold without it. After the sea turtle watching cruise, there was time for diving, but it was cloudy, so it was a shame that I couldn't see the clear ocean. The crew was friendly.

天気はよかったものの、季節的な事もあり、風が吹いてちょっと寒かったです。ラッシュガード着用していたので、凌げたですが無かったら風邪ひいてたかも。ウミガメウォッチクルーズの後ダイビングの時間があったけど、雲って来たので澄んだ海の中は見られなかったのが、残念でした。クルーはフレンドリーでした。

The girls were very knowledgeable and friendly - Jenna even made a nest of life jackets for me in the bow to lay out and get some sun when I was done swimming! They took us to an area with plenty of dolphins to see, and a few were as close as 5 feet away!

The water was calm, the atmosphere was chill. The guides were all down to earth and funny. I would highly recommend these guys,and their Turtle Canyon Tour.

Anyway, the beautiful sandbar was surpassed by the amazing guide, Sachi!

Her light-hearted talk, accurate advice, and wealth of little information were all top-notch. Unfortunately, I was too scared to go snorkeling, but it seemed like everyone, including small children, was enjoying it. I ended up with water in the underwater camera I brought, so I can't upload any photos.

兎に角、あの美しいサンドバー、を上回る程、ガイドのサチさんが最高でした！！！
！
トークの軽妙さ、アドバイスの的確さ、プチ情報の豊富さ、どれをとってもピカイチ。
残念ながら、私は怖くてシュノーケリングが出来ませんでしたが、小さなお子さんをお含め、みなさんシュノーケリングを楽しんでいらした様です。
私は折角持って行った水中カメラになんと水が入り、写真がアップ出来ません。

Since coming to the Big Island, I suddenly decided to check this site from their homepage. The deciding factor was, without a doubt, the excellent reputation of the staff! I was a bit worried about how it would go with my 9-year-old and 7-year-old daughters, but once we participated, it was truly amazing. Daisuke's detailed advice, the captain's quick thinking, and the communication among the staff were all perfect. And the main attraction, the dolphins! Right after leaving the harbor, we encountered a pod of 100 dolphins. Everyone was already so excited!

ハワイ島にきてから急に思い立ち、ＨＰからこちらのサイトを見つけました。
決めては、何と言ってもスタッフの評判の良さ！
9歳と7歳の娘が一緒だったので,どうなるかなとは思いましたが、
参加したら、本当に素晴らしかったです。
だいすけさんのきめ細やかなアドバイス、キャプテンの機転とスタッフ間のコミュニケーション、何をとっても完璧。
そして、メインのイルカ！
港をでてすぐに100頭の群れ。もうすでに、皆大盛り上がり

I came to Hawaii for my son's wedding.
I was scheduled to participate in Dolphin University, but I was transferred to the university due to boat maintenance.
Lucky!!
I got to see a lot of dolphins!!
My son and his wife participated in the tour the next day and they said they saw dolphins and whales.

Dolphin University, November 2, 2nd trip.

息子の結婚式でハワイに来ました。
イルカ中学に参加予定でしたが船のメンテナンスのため大学に編入されました。
ラッキー!!
いっぱいイルカを見れました!!
息子夫婦は翌日のツアーに参加しイルカとクジラが見れたそうです。

イルカ大学　11月2日　2便

I participated in the second session on October 30th!! I was truly moved and excited the whole time! It has become my best memory from my stay in Hawaii! I will definitely participate again.

10月30日の2部で参加しました！！
本当に感動と興奮しっぱなしでした！私のハワイ滞在の一番の思い出になってます！
絶対また参加します

I stayed at Aulani in October. Although I was alone, there were staff members who spoke Japanese and provided thorough explanations, so I had no issues. I didn't get to see any dolphins, but I was able to see many sea turtles while snorkeling, and I enjoyed spending an hour in the ocean, which was great. For breakfast, I had pastries, and for lunch, I made sandwiches with bread, vegetables, cheese, and ham as I liked. Eating after snorkeling on the yacht was very delicious and satisfying. However, there was one issue. I happened to share the same last name with another group of Japanese guests, and it was mistakenly noted that I wasn't participating. After returning home, I contacted them, and they responded politely, which was good. When I go to Hawaii again in July next year, I would like to participate with my family.

１０月アウラニ宿泊時に利用しました。１人でしたが、日本語を話せるスタッフがいて、しっかり説明をしてくれたので問題はありませんでした。イルカには会えませんでしたが、シュノーケルでウミガメをたくさん見られ、１時間じっくり海で楽しめたので良かったです。朝食には菓子パン、昼食はパンに野菜やチーズ、ハムを好きに挟んで食べました。ヨットの上でシュノーケル後に食べるととても美味しく満足でした。ただ一点問題がありました。もう一組の日本人とたまたま同姓で、私が参加していないことになっていました。帰国後連絡したところ、丁寧に対応していただけましたので良かったです。来年７月にハワイに行く時は、家族と一緒に参加したいと思います。

This time we departed from Kailua Pier. The boat that raced at high speed to Kealakekua Bay felt like an attraction and was exhilarating! We were the only Japanese people on board, which made us a bit worried, but when we communicated our needs, they helped us put on our goggles and lent us a float during snorkeling. It was our first time snorkeling, but we were able to enjoy it with peace of mind. The sea where we snorkeled was quite deep, and it was beautiful to see so many fish swimming close to us; I could have watched them forever. After snorkeling, they served snacks, fruits, and drinks, and the pineapple was especially delicious! The lava cave adventure was more about observing and receiving explanations from outside rather than entering the cave, but they brought us close enough to truly feel the power of nature. On the way back, we unexpectedly encountered a pod of dolphins and were thrilled to see them jump up close, just like in an aquarium show. The other participants seemed fine, but I got cold from snorkeling, so it was a good decision to bring a hoodie.

今回はカイルア桟橋からの出発でした。ケアラケクア湾まで猛スピードで走る船はアトラクションのようで爽快！日本人は私達二人だけで少し心配でしたが、きちんと要望を伝えると、ゴーグルをはめるのを手伝ってくれたり、シュノーケリングの際には浮き輪を貸してもらえらたりとはじめてのシュノーケリングでしたが安心して楽しめました。シュノーケリングをした海はかなりの深さがあり、自分の近くをたくさんの魚が泳ぐ姿はとてもきれいで見ていて飽きませんでした。シュノーケリング後、お菓子やフルーツ・飲み物を出してくれ、特にパイナップルがおいしかったです♪溶岩洞窟アドベンチャーは、洞窟に入るのではなく、外から様子を見て説明を受けるという感じですが近くまで寄ってくれるので自然のパワーを十分に感じられます。帰る途中、偶然（？）イルカの群れに遭遇し、水族館のショーさながらのジャンプを間近で見れたことには感動しました。
他の参加者の方たちは大丈夫そうでしたが、私はシュノーケリングで体が冷えてしまったので、パーカを持って行って正解でした。

My kids had a great time as did my husband, but I did not. I can swim, but am not used to deep water (35 feet) and the waves. I asked for an adult life jacket and was told to just hang on to the rope on the back of the boat. I should have asked another crew member as Tiffany and Jason were awesome, but the guy I asked at the back told me it wouldn't help. So I was left panicking at the back of the boat while my husband went out with my two young boys. In hindsight, bring your own life jacket if you or your kids need one to make sure it fits and works for you. I'm sure my boys will go again, but I'll stay on shore.

I imagined a colorful school of fish when I signed up, but it seems the tour took us to a point where we could see sea turtles, which was great. There were only a small group of tiny black fish. The description about seeing beautiful fish was incorrect.

カラフルな魚の群れ泳ぐ姿を想像して申し込みましたが、ウミガメを見られるポイントに連れて行くツアーだったようで、それは◎。
魚は真っ黒いさかなの小さな群れが少し。きれいな魚がみられる・・・という案内文は間違いですね

My mother really wanted to see the sandbar, so we planned our visit considering the tour schedule and the tide times. I went with a slight hope that there might be some sand visible, but unfortunately, the sandbar was completely submerged. It was shallow enough that my mother was happy, though. How many days a month can visitors actually stand on the sandbar? I have been to Long Beach in Palau, so I wasn't particularly impressed. I think people who haven't been to Palau would find it quite moving, but I wouldn't recommend it to those who have. However, we did get to see a lot of sea turtles, which was really fun. I didn't expect to see so many!

母が、ぜひサンドバーを見たいとのことで、ツアーの時間と、干満の時間を考えて参加しました。砂が少しでも出ているところがあるかなーとわずかな期待をもって行きましたが、やっぱり砂州は一部分も出ていませんでした。それなりに浅かったので母は喜んでいましたが。月に何日くらいお客さんが砂州状態に立てるのでしょうか。私はパラオのロングビーチに行ったことがあるので、感動がありませんでした。パラオに行ったことがない人は、それなりの感動が得られると思いますが、パラオに行ったことがある人にはお勧めしません。ウミガメにはたくさん会えて楽しかったです。あんなにいるとは思いませんでした。

I was drawn to the rafting and the phrase "Lava Cave Adventure," so I joined this tour. Everyone else was American. I couldn't understand English at all, but I was able to enjoy the atmosphere.

Seeing the Big Island of Hawaii from the sea was impressive, and it reminded me that there are still many uncharted areas and that it is a volcanic island. On the way there, I was nervous because I wasn't used to the speed of the boat and the seating position, but I got used to it on the way back. To see the land from my seat, I had to turn my body, so choosing the right seating point is important. The boat occasionally slowed down and spun around, which felt like riding a roller coaster and was fun.

It was my first time snorkeling, and there were plenty of fish, which I enjoyed. They lent floaties to those who were inexperienced, so I think it alleviated the anxiety for beginners. There was no explanation of how long we would be snorkeling, so I didn't know when it would end. The fruit they served on the boat was very delicious. Since my body was cold, it would have been even better if they had offered warm drinks instead of just water.

I had imagined cave exploration with the phrase "Lava Cave Adventure," but there were no caves, just entering a cove, which was disappointing and different from my expectations. However, I was very moved and satisfied to see dolphins jumping and swimming in a pod very close to us on the way back.

ラフティングと「溶岩洞窟アドベンチャー」というフレーズに惹かれ、このツアーに参加しました。私達以外は全員アメリカ人でした。英語が全く判らなかったですが、雰囲気は十分楽しめました。
海から見るハワイ島はスケールが大きくて、まだ未開の地が沢山ある事や火山の島であることを再認識できました。往きはボートのスピード感や座る体勢に慣れずに緊張しましたが、帰りは慣れました。座る位置で陸を見るには体を反転させなければならず、座るポイント選びも重要かと思います。ボートは時折スピードを緩めたり回転したりと、ジェットコースターに乗っている様で楽しかったです。
シュノーケリングは初めてでしたが、魚もたくさんいて楽しめました。不慣れな人には浮き輪を貸してくれたので、初心者の方の不安感は取り除けると思います。何分ぐらいという説明がなかったので、終了のタイミングが判りませんでした。船上で切り分けてくれたフルーツはとても美味しかったです。体が冷えているので、お水より温かい飲み物が出ればなお更GOODでした。
「溶岩洞窟アドベンチャー」というフレーズで洞窟探検を想像していたのですが、洞窟らしきものはなく、入江に入っただけだったので、イメージと違いガッカリしました。
帰りにイルカのジャンピングや群れをとても近くで見れた事にはとても感動し、満足しました。

I had to give this a 3 star rating to get it to post. My earlier one star rating wouldn't post and my comments were sent to the tour operator for comment. Each issue that I raised the company flat out lied about. As indicated in a prior review, it was disappointing that the scooters had to be moved around by the divers, they are not in working order to be moved under their own power. It looked like they were broken or missing engine parts. I loved the concept, the crew was fantastic and I would have said it was OK, but given that the event is not as advertised and that Bob's Underwater Scooter Adventure management flat out lied I would then question the safety of the event. False advertising. One star.

My husband and I have very little English skills. Even so, the captain and the female crew members were very considerate, and we had no trouble at all, even though we were the only two Japanese on board. The staff's smiles during check-in were pleasant, and above all, the camaraderie between the captain and the crew was evident, creating a friendly atmosphere that extended to the guests, making everyone very friendly by the end of the tour.

The tour started with dolphin watching. We sped out to sea on a speedboat, passing various tour boats. Then, we spotted a pod of dolphins. They jumped and performed impressive twists that made me think, "Are you Shirai-kun?" They chased the boat and swam right next to us. We were just sitting on the edge of the boat, so the experience felt incredibly real. The dolphins were very generous with their performances. Since there were no other boats around, it might have been the captain's secret spot.

We also had plenty of time for snorkeling. On the way back, the boat tilted so much that I thought it might capsize, and the captain was really into it. It was much more thrilling and fun than any amusement park attraction. The lava caves were definitely a place that other boats wouldn't reach. I highly recommend participating. By the way, my husband and I are in our 60s, and many of the Americans participating were quite elderly as well.

英語力がほとんどない私達夫婦。 それでもキャプテンや同乗の女性クルーが何かと気を遣ってくれ、日本人は2人だけという状況でも全く困りませんでした。
チェックインの時もスタッフの笑顔が感じよかったし、何よりもキャプテンとクルーの仲が良く、その雰囲気がゲストにまで伝わってツアーの終わりには皆が大変フレンドリーになっていました。ツアーはイルカウォッチングからスタート。いろんなツアーの船が来ていたところからスピードボートで沖へひたすら走る、走る。すると、そこにイルカの群れが。ジャンプして、おまけに、おまえは白井君かと思わず感心するほどの見事なひねり。ボートの後を追いかけたり、すぐ横を泳いだり。何せボートの縁に腰かけているだけですから、そのリアルなことといったら。イルカ君たちも大サービス。他の船はいませんでしたからキャプテンの秘密ポイントかも。
シュノーケリングの時間もたっぷり。帰りにはボートがひっくり返るんじゃないかというくらいあっちに傾けたりこっちに傾けたり、キャプテンもノリノリ。そこいらのアトラクションよりずっと迫力があり面白かったですよ。溶岩洞窟は他のボートでは絶対あそこまで行けないだろうし。参加をお勧めします。ちなみに私達夫婦は60代。参加されていた米国の方達も結構高齢でしたよ。

I participated in a dolphin tour with my wife on our honeymoon! I was moved by the adorable nature of the dolphins and the experience exceeded my expectations. My wife also tried snorkeling for the first time and had a great time. Thank you, Captain Daisuke! I look forward to seeing you again when we visit the Big Island of Hawaii. Next time, it's going to be whales!

新婚旅行で嫁とイルカツアーに参加しました！
自然のイルカの愛くるしさと想像以上の体験をすることが出来き感動しました。
嫁もシュノーケリング初挑戦でしたがとても楽しんでいました。
ダイスケさん！キャプテンありがとう★
また、ハワイ島に行くときはよろしくお願いします。
次はクジラだな～！

The sea was truly beautiful.
At the sandbar, we enjoyed taking photos, playing volleyball, watching sea turtles from the boat, swimming over the coral reefs, and eating hamburgers on the boat, experiencing fun that you can't have in Japan.
I felt that the time we could spend in the water was a bit short.
The guide spoke Japanese fluently and shared stories and jokes about the movie being filmed in Oahu while guiding us.
After coming out of the sea, I felt cold, but we were able to have warm drinks.
That said, it was still cold, so it would be nice to have something to wear to avoid sunburn.

本当に美しい海でした。
サンドバーでは写真を撮っていただいたり、バレーをしたりと楽しみ、船からウミガメを見たり、サンゴ礁の上を泳いだり、そして船の上でハンバーガーを食べて、と日本では味わえない楽しさを体験できました。
少し海に入れる時間が短いかな、と感じました。
ガイドさんは日本語を普通に話せる方で、オアフで撮影してる映画の話や冗談を交えながらガイドしてくださりました。
日海から上がった後寒く感じましたが、温かい飲み物いただけました。
とは言えやっぱり寒かったので、日焼けも避けられますし羽織るものがあるといいですね。

The blue sea, blue sky, and white sand really make you feel like you've arrived in Hawaii. When I was snorkeling and a sea turtle swam just a few centimeters beside me, I was filled with surprise and emotion. It happened so suddenly that I couldn't press the camera shutter, but it’s definitely etched in my memory. However, perhaps due to the season, it was a bit chilly, and it felt cold when the sun wasn't out. The staff were kind and very cheerful. The breakfast was delicious and clean. I think summer is the best time for this tour. If you haven't experienced it yet, I highly recommend it.

青い海・青い空・白い砂、ハワイに来たって感じです。シュノーケルをしている時に海ガメが数センチ横を泳いでいた時は、驚きと感動がありました。あまりにも突然の為、カメラのシャッターを押す事は出来ませんでが、記憶にはバッチリ残りました。ただ、季節的に気温が少し低かったのか、太陽が出ていないと少し寒かったです。スタッフの方々は親切で、とても陽気です。朝食も美味しく清潔です。真夏は最高のツアーだと思います。未体験の方は是非。

The crew was great at speaking Japanese, and they were fun to talk to, making for an enjoyable tour! The food was delicious, and the underwater volleyball was exciting; it was the best! However, the weather was cloudy, so the sea was cold... I want to join again on a sunny day next time!

クルーのみなさんが日本語が上手で、話もうまかったので楽しいツアーになりました！
ごはんもおいしかったし、水中バレーも盛り上がったし、最高でした！
ただ天気がくもりだったので海が寒くて・・・
次回は晴れた日にまた参加したいです！

I participated at the beginning of October. Unfortunately, it was cloudy on the day, and it got cold during the snorkeling, to the point where I was shivering after getting out. I think it's a good idea for those going in the future to bring a thick jacket.

The sandbar was about knee-deep, but it felt strange to be in the shallow water in the middle of the ocean. The hamburger for lunch was also delicious. I was able to see sea turtles and manta rays.

１０月頭に参加しました。
当日はあいにく曇りで、シュノーケルの途中から寒くなり、あがってからは震えるほど・・・。
これから行かれる方は厚手の上着などあった方がいいと思います。

サンドバーもひざぐらいの深さでしたが、海の真ん中での浅瀬、不思議な感じでした。
ランチのハンバーガーもおいしかったです。
海がめとマンタも見ることができました。
