Hawaii
I really saw dolphins passing right by! They were mating in front of us. There were also a mother and her baby. Of course, we could see them clearly and hear their sounds. I was very satisfied. On the way back, I was lucky enough to encounter a manta ray as well. However, I was really envious of our guide Daisuke, who was diving and playing with the dolphins, so I promised myself that I would learn to dive and come back again.
本当に、イルカたちがすぐそばを通って行きました!向かい合っているのは交尾しているんですね。親子もいました。もちろんくっきり見えて、声も聞こえます。大満足です。帰り道に運よくマンタにも遭えました。でも、ガイドのダイスケさんが潜水してイルカと遊んでいたのがとっっても羨ましかったので、私も潜水できるようになってまた来ようと心に誓いました。
Dear Moto,
Thank you for participating in our tour the other day. Once you get a little better at diving, you'll see things differently, and dolphins may even come close to play with you out of curiosity. So please practice your diving and come back to visit us again. Daisuke and I are looking forward to your next visit. Aloha!
Moto様 先日は弊社ツアーへご参加頂きまして有難うございました。多少でも潜れるようになると、見え方も違いますし、イルカが興味を持って近くで遊んでくれたりすることもあります。なので是非潜水の練習をして又遊びにいらして下さい。 ダイスケ共々又のお越しをお待ちしております。 アロハ!
We had a great time despite weather challenges. Crew was great!! Captain saw some dolphins and turned around and followed them for a good 15 minutes...it was amazing. We were able to lay on the front of the boat and were nearly close enough to touch them.
Thank you so much for joining us and for your 5-star review! Mahalo and Aloha
After two years, I went to Hawaii. There wasn't much shopping, and during my three-night stay on the Big Island, I missed out on a star viewing tour. I was wondering what to do when I found "Angel's Sea" on a website...
But you know, I'm not good with boats, and snorkeling seems like something only young people do... Oh, but I really want to see the white sandy beaches underwater... and the turtles in nature!!!
I'm so glad I had the courage to join. There were indeed mostly younger people, but I think there were two or three others over 50 besides us. The snorkeling had proper lessons, and I put on fins for the first time and swam over the coral reefs. The colorful fish made it look just like an aquarium.
The lunch hamburger came with background music, making for a perfect presentation. It was a day that flew by.
Thank you to all the staff for a wonderful day!
2年ぶりのハワイで 買い物もそれほどなく、3泊したハワイ島では ☆を見るツアーにあぶれてしまい さあてどうしましょう・・・と思っていたら サイトで見つけた天使の海・・・
でもね〜船は苦手だし、シュノーケルなんて 若者だけでしょう・・・
あ〜でも みてみたいなあ・・・海の中の白い砂浜・・・自然の中の カメさん!!!
勇気を持って参加して 本当によかったです。確かに若い方がほとんどでしたが 50歳以上の方も私たちの他に2・3人はいたのかな?
シュノーケルもちゃんとレッスンがあって 生まれて始めてフィンをつけて 珊瑚礁の上をおよぎました。色とりどりの魚に まるで水族館のような景色。
ランチのハンバーガーもBGMつきで 最高の演出です。あっというまの 1日でした。
スタッフのみなさん 素敵な1日をありがとうございました。
This is a great day for an experienced snorkler and, at the same time, individuals less confident in the water. An abundence of sea life, including a manta, a great beach and beautiful vista were all part of the experience. Followed by a smooth but good sail home, it was enough but not too much for a first morning after a late arrival. Food good, crew great and helpful, equipment good and boat comfortable - great for the activity type and well maintained. All in all, a very good experience.
Swimming with dolphins has been a dream of mine for a long time. I finally participated in the long-awaited tour. I arrived at the location by rental car without getting lost. After receiving a thorough briefing from the captain and guide, we set sail!
There were only four participants that day. Usually, there are about ten people, so I felt lucky to have a smaller group! This meant we could enter the water more times than usual. There were even some strong adventurers who joined us from Oahu for a day trip.
We spotted a pod of dolphins! Time to enter the water. The sea had exceptional clarity! According to the guide, such clarity is rare. I felt fortunate today, sensing something special was about to happen. We positioned ourselves ahead of the dolphins' path and waited. The dolphins approached leisurely from a distance, and the pod passed right in front of me! I had been waiting for this moment! I could hear the dolphins' sounds, and it felt like we were connecting.
That day, I was even luckier to encounter a group of 300 to 400 dolphins! The guide mentioned that this is also quite rare. To top it off, we encountered a manta ray! I even got to see the collaboration between the manta ray and the dolphins! I was once again moved by the grandeur of Hawaii's nature. I was fortunate enough to have the best experience that day. Thank you to the captain and the guide!
If I have the chance again, I would like to try snorkeling and dive a bit more to swim with the dolphins. A waterproof camera is definitely a must!
イルカと泳ぐことがずっと前からの夢。ようやく念願のツアーに参加。
現地にレンタカーで参加したが特に迷うことなく到着。
キャプテン、ガイドの方から丁寧なレクチャーを受けていざ出航!
その日の参加メンバは全体で4名。いつもなら10名ほどいらっしゃるようですが、
人数が少なくてラッキー!通常よりエントリーする本数が多くできるとのこと。
オアフから日帰りで参加している強者の方も。。
イルカの群れを発見!いざエントリー。
海は抜群の透明度!ガイドさん曰くこれほどの透明度はめったにないとのこと。
今日は運に恵まれて何かよさそうな予感。
イルカの通り道を先回りして待機・・。イルカが遠くからゆったりと近づいてきて
イルカの群れが自分のすぐ目の前を通過!この瞬間を待ってました!
イルカの声も聞け、まるでイルカと通じ合った気分になりました。
その日はさらに幸運なことに300〜400の群れに遭遇!これまためったにないとのこと。
さらにさらにマンタのレフティと遭遇!マンタとイルカのコラボレーションも見れちゃいました!
ハワイの自然の雄大さに改めて感動を受けました。
当日は幸運にも恵まれ最高の体験になりました。
キャプテン、ガイドさん、ありがとうございました!
また機会があれば今度はシュノーケルでもうちょと潜れるようになってイルカと一緒に泳いでみたいと思います。あと防水カメラ必須ですね。
ARATA, I remember that day well as it was truly a long-awaited collaboration with dolphins and manta rays. I aimed to see them, but it had been about three months, right? It was a wonderful day to see them together. Please practice a bit of free diving and join the tour again. You’ll see things from a completely different perspective, even just a little bit of diving... I look forward to our reunion. Aloha!
ARATA様、 最近では本当に久しぶりの イルカ、マンタのコラボレーションだったのであの日の事はよく覚えております。一応狙っていきましたけど、3ヶ月ぶりくらいじゃないかな?同時に観れたのは。という事でとても素晴らしい日でしたね。 是非、素潜りの練習を少しされて又ツアーに参加して下さい。全く違った見え方がするんですよ、少しでも潜ると・・・。再会を楽しみにしています。アロハ!
It was a wonderful experience on our honeymoon trip. This was the most enjoyable part of the trip. We were blessed with good weather and had a great time.
I would like to join another tour on the next occasion. My parents recommended the abundant North Shore tour.
新婚旅行でのさんかでした。
今回の旅行で、一番楽しかったです。
天気にも恵まれて楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
次の機会も、他のツアーに参加したいです。
両親のお勧めは、てんこ盛りのノースシェアーでした。
This is a Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea tour. Congratulations on your wedding! We look forward to welcoming you next time for your anniversary trip to Hawaii. We can't wait for that day. Mahalo!
キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。ご結婚おめでとうございます。
次回は結婚記念のハワイ旅行でぜひお越しくださいね。その日を楽しみにお待ちしてます。Mahalo!
I participated with three friends (*^^*)
None of us could actually swim! We thought we could manage since we had wetsuits. It had been two years since I last went to the ocean, and when I finally got in, I panicked and started to drown. However, Mr. Nawata quickly noticed I was in trouble, and Daisuke, the swimming specialist, came to my rescue (>_<). I really didn't know what to do, but Daisuke stayed by my side and gradually helped me calm down. By the time I returned to the boat, I thought I wouldn't go back into the ocean again. But then I realized that it would be a shame to leave without seeing the dolphins, thanks to the encouragement from Mr. Nawata and Daisuke. Honestly, I was really scared of the ocean. However, Daisuke stayed close to me and worked hard to take me near the dolphins!! Thanks to Daisuke, I was able to see the dolphins up close!! They came so close that I could almost reach out and touch them (>∀<). I truly felt it was a miracle to see the dolphins so near!! My heart was filled with emotion!! Furthermore, I could hear their sounds when they were close by!! It really healed my heart!! The dolphins lifted my spirits! I had a few opportunities to snorkel, and by the end, I was able to swim in the ocean by myself! I was surprised at myself!! The joy of meeting the dolphins far outweighed my fear of the ocean!!
I think participating in this dolphin option was the best experience! I believe it was because of Mr. Nawata and Daisuke that they noticed and helped me immediately when I was drowning, and they taught me the joy of swimming with dolphins!! I think even those who are not confident in swimming can participate with peace of mind! If you want to see dolphins even a little, why not give it a try? It will change your perspective immensely! With Mr. Nawata and Daisuke, I’m sure you’ll create wonderful memories (^o^)/
I plan to go to the Big Island again next year! I would like to ask Mr. Nawata and Daisuke for their help again at that time!! Thank you, Mr. Nawata and Daisuke, for letting me meet the dolphins!!
友達3人で参加しました(*^^*)
3人とも実は泳げませんでした!
ウェットスーツがあるからなんとかなるかと軽い気持ちで参加しました。2年ぶりという久しぶりの海でいざ海に入ったら、パニックになり溺れてしまいました。ですが、縄田さんが溺れているのをすぐに発見してくれて、泳ぎのスペシャリストのダイスケさんが助けてくれました(>_<)本当にどうしたらいいかわかんなくなっていましたが、ダイスケさんが常に一緒にいてくれて徐々に落ち着くことができました。落ち着いてから船に戻った時には、実はもう海に入らないと思いました。ですが、縄田さんとダイスケさんが励ましてくれたことと、イルカを見えないで帰るなんてあっちゃいけないことだと思いました。本当はすごい海が怖かったです。でも、ずっとダイスケさんがそばにいてくれてイルカの近くまで一生懸命連れていってくれました!!ダイスケさんのおかげで、間近でイルカを見ることができました!!本当に手の届く距離まで、イルカが近くにきてくれました(>∀<)イルカが近くに見えるなんて本当に奇跡なことだと思いしました!!感動で胸がいっぱいになりました!!更に、イルカが近くにいると鳴き声が聞こえました!!本当に本当に心が癒されました!!イルカに心を元気にしてもらいました!何度かシュノーケルをする機会があるのですが、後半には一人で海に入って泳げるようになっていました!自分でもビックリしました!!イルカに会えることの嬉しさが、海の怖さよりも遥かに上回っていました!!
今回のイルカのオプションに参加できたことは最高なことだと思っています!縄田さん、ダイスケさんだからこそ、溺れたときにすぐに気付き助けてくれて、イルカと泳げる喜びを教えてくれたと思っています!!泳ぎに自信のない人も安心して参加できると思います!自信がなくても、少しでもイルカに会ってみたいという人は参加してみたらどうですか?世界観がすごく変わります!縄田さんとダイスケさんならきっと素晴らしい思い出にしてくれると思います(^o^)/
来年もハワイ島に行く予定にしてします!その時はまた縄田さんとダイスケさんにお願いしたいと思ってます!!縄田さん、ダイスケさんイルカに会わせてくれてありがとうございました!!
I will never forget all of you. From my perspective, you weren't drowning, but you were truly in a state of panic. It was the first time I had seen such an expression. Although there were floatation devices, I completely understand that it was still a frightening experience.
Overcoming that fear is a significant challenge, even for men, and I was impressed that you were able to get back into the water again afterward. Thank you so much for having the courage to not give up.
Thanks to your efforts, we were able to make wonderful contact with the dolphins, which was truly great. We were also genuinely happy and almost brought to tears. Please do come back and play with us again. Daisuke and I are looking forward to it from the bottom of our hearts. Aloha!
皆さんの事は忘れ様にも忘れられません。私から見ると、溺れてはいませんでしたが、本当にパニック状態でしたね。あんな表情を見たのは初めてです。 浮き具があるので、実際には沈みませんが、それでもコワイ思いをされたのは十分に分かります。
その恐怖に打ち勝つのは男性でも、大変な事、 よくあの後にもう一度海に入れましたね。 その勇気に感動しました。そして諦めず勇気を出してくれて本当に有難うございました。
でも頑張ってくれたおかげで、見事にイルカたちとコンタクトを取ることが出来て、本当によかったですね。 私たちも心から嬉しくて涙が出そうでした。 是非是非、又 皆さんで遊びにいらして下さい。 ダイスケ共々、心よりお待ちしております。 アロハ!
We participated as a mature couple. Despite putting in the effort to scout the day before, we made the mistake of forgetting to reconfirm, which made us a bit anxious on the day of the event. However, we passed through the check-in without any issues.
The boat was surprisingly large and didn't sway too much, but there were some people who got seasick, so motion sickness medication might be essential. Most of the passengers were Westerners. There were a couple and a family from South Korea, but we were the only Japanese. All the explanations were in English, which went right over my head. However, it was fine as long as I carefully read the Japanese instructions handed out at check-in.
Kealakekua Bay has exceptional clarity. We enjoyed a luxurious time playing with beautiful fish. Previously, I had dived at various resorts as a resort diver, but I was moved by the beautiful underwater scenery after a long time. The weather was good, and the light shone through, making the corals and colorful fish sparkle. This was the first time I felt so satisfied with snorkeling.
The hamburger for lunch was very delicious, and I couldn't help but ask for a second serving. If I come back to the Big Island, I would love to see that beautiful sea again.
熟年夫婦で参加しました。前日に下見をするほど念を入れたのに、うっかりリコンファームを忘れるという失態。当日、ヒヤヒヤしたものの問題なく受付通過。
船は意外に大きく揺れもそれほどではなかったですが、船酔いした人がいたので酔い止めは必携かもしれません。乗客は欧米人がほとんど。韓国人のカップルとファミリーはいたものの日本人は私たちだけ。説明は全て英語で、私の耳を素通りしていきました。重要事項は受付で渡された日本語の説明書を熟読すれば大丈夫です。
ケアラケクア湾は透明度抜群。キレイな魚たちと遊ぶ贅沢な時間を堪能しました。以前、リゾートダイバーで色々なリゾートで潜りましたが、久しぶりに美しい海中の光景に感動。天候が良かったこともあり、光が差し込みキラキラ輝くサンゴと色とりどりの魚たち。シュノーケルでここまで満足したのは初めてです。
昼食のハンバーガーはとっても美味で、思わずおかわりしてしまいました。またハワイ島に来ることがあれば、もう一度あの美しい海を見たいと思います。
On my first visit to Hawaii, I thought I couldn't miss the dolphin swimming tour, so I checked out tours from other companies and decided to sign up for this one. The meeting point was local, and they provided a detailed map, so I was able to find it without getting lost.
Fortunately, we encountered a pod of dolphins about 15 minutes after the boat departed... it was an emotional moment. After the pod passed by, we were able to get ahead of them and greet the dolphins again, and we did this five times. We could see the dolphins at a distance that felt almost within reach; it was truly like swimming with them.
Our guide, Dai, really conveyed his love for dolphins, which was evident throughout the tour. It goes without saying that the captain's keen eye and steering skills helped us encounter the pod. Since I was wearing a wetsuit, I ended up floating on the surface, so next time I participate, I would like to swim a bit without a wetsuit during warmer weather. I bragged about this experience to my friends back in Japan.
初めてのハワイ訪問でイルカと泳ごうツアーははずせないと思い他の催行会社のツアーも見た上でこちらのツアーに申し込み参加しました。 現地集合だったのですが集合場所の地図も丁寧に載せていただいていたので迷うことなく行けました。 幸運にも船が出港して15分くらいでイルカの群れに出会えました・・・感動の瞬間です。 群れが通り過ぎると船で先回りしてまたイルカ達を出迎えるという形式ですがそれが5回もできました。 手の届きそうな距離でイルカを見れる、まさにイルカと泳ぐと言ってもいいくらいです。 ガイドのダイちゃん、ホントにイルカが大好きなんだなぁということがすっごく伝わってきます。 船長さんの確かな目と操舵でイルカの群れに遭遇できたのは言うまでもありません。 ウエットスーツを着ていたのでどうしても海面に浮いたままだったので、次に参加するときは暖かい時期であればウエットスーツなしで少し潜って泳ぎたいと思いました。 日本に帰ってから友人たちに自慢しまくりました。
Thank you for participating in our tour the other day, Yoshi. We often have customers who want to dive, and in such cases, you can enter without a wetsuit. If you contact us in advance, we can also prepare rash guards, so please do try a bit of free diving next time. The way you see dolphins underwater is completely different from how they appear on the surface, and it's really wonderful. We look forward to seeing you again. Aloha.
Yoshiさん、 先日は弊社ツアーへのご参加有難うございました。 うちは潜りたいと言うお客様もよくご参加になりますが、そういう場合はウエットスーツ無しで入れます。事前にご連絡くださればラッシュガードもご用意できますので、次回は是非少し素潜りにも挑戦して下さい。 海面で見るイルカとは又全く違うイルカの見え方がしますので、それもすごくいいですよ。 では、又お目にかかれる日を楽しみにお待ちしています。アロハ
I thought we could get off the bus at the malasada shop, but it was just a stop for the staff to pick up malasadas...
The lunch on the boat looked like they were grilling on board in the photos, but I couldn't tell if they were actually grilling or if it was pre-cooked; it just felt like they handed it to us sandwiched in bread.
I was really thrilled to see the dolphins, but I had high expectations for other aspects as well...
マラサダのお店でバス降りれるのかと思いきや、そこはただスタッフがマラサダを取りに停車するだけ・・・。
船上ランチ、写真では船上で焼いてくれてるイメージだったのに、焼いてたのか焼いてあったのかわからないが、パンにはさんで渡されただけって感じでした。
イルカを見れたのは、とっても感激しましたが、その他のところにも期待していただけに・・・。
Thank you very much for your patronage. We apologize for not meeting your expectations with services other than snorkeling with dolphins. Our staff will strive to provide better services in the future. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed seeing the dolphins. Thank you very much for your post after your return home.
この度はご利用いただきまして誠にありがとうございます。イルカとのシュノーケル以外のサービスでご期待に添えないところがあり、申し訳ございませんでした。今後より良いサービスをご提供させていただくよう、スタッフ一同努めてまいります。イルカをご覧いただけた点は、喜んでいただけ、嬉しく思っております。ご帰国後のご投稿、誠にありがとうございました。
I was finally able to swim with the sea turtle, Poé-chan, who came close to me, and it was truly amazing! The captain of the boat and the staff were all cheerful and very kind, and I'm really glad I participated.
By the way, I joined on September 27, and the water depth was about waist-high.
念願の海ガメ ポエちゃんと一緒に泳げて、向こうから近づいてきてくれて本当に最高でした!
船のキャプテンはじめスタッフのお姉さんたちはみんな陽気でとっても親切で、参加してよかったです。
ちなみに9/27に参加しましたが、水の深さは腰くらいでした。
Aloha! This is the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour.
Many customers are looking forward to meeting these turtles, in addition to enjoying the sandbar.
Whether the turtles know this or not, they diligently show up almost every day (^○^)//
We are waiting for you in Hawaii, along with the sea turtles!
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。
このツアーはサンドバーはもちろんのこと、このカメたちに会うのを楽しみに参加していただいているお客様もた~くさんいらっしゃいます。
カメたちもこのことを知ってか知らずか、ほとんどの日はせっせと出勤?してくれます(^○^)//
ハワイにて皆様のお越しを海がめとともにお待ちしてます~。
I was only worried about the fact that I can't swim, but I thought it would be amazing to swim with dolphins, so I decided to participate. Once I joined, my anxiety about not being able to swim disappeared (laughs). Before I knew it, I was swimming farther than everyone else (big laugh) and was completely absorbed in swimming with the dolphins. The excitement I felt when I saw the dolphins underwater for the first time will stay with me forever. I want to go to the Big Island again to participate in this tour. Yes! It's okay even if you can't swim! The staff provides support and lends you floatation devices (noodles), so you can feel at ease. I highly recommend this tour!!
私(妻)が泳げない事だけが気がかりでしたが、イルカと泳げるなんて最高!と思い思い切って参加しました。
いざ参加してみると‥‥泳げない事への不安もどこへやら(笑)。気がつけば皆さんよりも遠くまで泳いでいたり(大笑)夢中になってイルカちゃんと一緒に泳いでいました。
海中でイルカちゃんを初めて見た時の感動は一生忘れないでしょう。
またこのツアーに参加するためにハワイ島へ行きたいと思っています。
そうです!泳げない方でも大丈夫です!スタッフの皆さんのサポートや、浮き具(ヌードル)を貸して下さいますので安心して下さい。かなりオススメのツアーですよ!!
Dear K couple, thank you for your valuable comment. I am truly happy to hear your words, "I will never forget the excitement of seeing a dolphin for the first time." I personally remember clearly the moment I encountered a dolphin over 20 years ago. I feel honored to have been a part of your unforgettable moment. Please come back to meet the dolphins in Hawaii again; we are looking forward to it. Aloha!
K夫婦 様、 貴重なコメントを有難うございます。 「初めてイルカを見た感動を一生忘れないでしょう。」との一節、 本当に嬉しいです。 私自身、20年以上前の事になりますが、
初めてイルカと遭遇した瞬間の事は今でもハッキリと覚えております。 お二人の一生モノの感動の瞬間に少しでも携われた事を、光栄に思います。 又、ハワイ島のイルカに会いに来てくださいね、お待ちしております。アロハ!
In the past few years, I've been to Hawaii, but this was my first time participating in Dolphin University. In the first hour, I encountered a group of about 20 dolphin instructors, which was incomparable to any dolphin watching experiences I've had before. In the second hour, while I was mesmerized by a sea turtle instructor swimming leisurely on the ocean floor, another sea turtle instructor passed right in front of me!
My wife, who noticed the approaching turtle first, later told me that she panicked and said, "I heard there's a $3,000 fine for touching a sea turtle, but how much is the fine if we bump into one?" We had a good laugh about it afterward. I would love to enroll again next time, and after that, I want to go to Manta University as well. However, I do feel a bit anxious about whether I can have an experience as moving as this one again; it was such a luxurious experience.
ここ数年、ハワイに行っていますが、初めてイルカ大学に参加。1時間目、今まで参加したイルカウォッチングとは比較にならない団体、20頭位?のイルカ先生に遭遇。2時間目は、海底をゆったり泳ぐウミガメ先生に見とれていたら、、、超目の前を別のウミガメ先生が通過!
接近してくる先生に先に気づいた家内は「ウミガメに触ったら、罰金3000ドルって聞いてたけど、ぶつかったら、罰金は幾ら?」と大慌てになったと、後で聞いて大笑いしました。また次回も入学したいですし、その後はマンタ大学にも行きたいですね。でも、今回以上の感動が得られるのか、、、ちょっと不安も感じるくらい贅沢な体験でした。
I joined the tour just to pass the time, but it was the most moving experience. As a diver, I've explored many seas, but I've never encountered so many dolphins and sea turtles.
暇つぶしで参加したツアーですが一番感動しました。私はダイバーなので色んな海を潜りましたが、こんなたくさんのイルカや海亀に出会えたことがありません。
On that day, the dolphins were swimming very fast, and I couldn't see them much.
Everyone was concerned and asked if I saw them, but even though I hadn't, I ended up giving a typical Japanese response of "I saw them." So, my time with the dolphins came to an end. I should have honestly said that I didn't see them much.
I was glad to see two turtles up close, though.
イルカがこの日はとても早く泳いでおり、あまり見れませんでした。
みなさん見れましたか?と気を使ってくれるのですが、見れてないのに「見れました」と日本人らしい回答をしてしまい、イルカとの時間は終了。
正直にあまり見れなかったといえばよかった。
亀は2匹も間近でみれてよかったです。
It was clear and sunny, but perhaps because of the strong winds, it was more aggressive than I expected! It was more fun than a roller coaster at an amusement park, and I highly recommend it. The snorkeling was also wonderful with beautifully colored fish, which was very soothing.
快晴でいたが風が強かったせいか、期待以上にアグレッシヴでした!遊園地のジェットコースターより面白い、かなりお薦めです。シュノーケリングも素晴らしい色の魚たちで、癒されました。
I participated in a company training trip with two other men, making a group of three. I thought we might stand out a bit, but in the end, we had an amazing time. The dandy captain and the handsome instructor really lightened the mood and made the atmosphere enjoyable for our group of about ten people.
We got to see dolphins up close multiple times, and the three of us were super moved. We promised each other that next time we would come with our families or partners (laughs).
Even three scruffy guys can have fun on this tour. I highly recommend it!
会社の研修旅行で30台~40台の男3人で参加。
ちょっと浮いたグループかなーと思っていたら、
結果超楽しく過ごせました。
ダンディなキャプテンとイケメンのインストラクターのコンビが雰囲気を和らげてくれ、10人ぐらいのグループの雰囲気を和ませてくれました。
イルカを間近で何回も見れて、男三人で超感動。
次は家族やカップルで来ようと誓いあいました(笑)
むさくるしい男3人でも楽しめるこのツアー。
超オススメです。
Thank you, Yasu, for your comment despite your busy schedule after returning home. It is indeed rare to have three men in a group, but thanks to everyone being such great mood makers, we were able to enjoy guiding you very much. I've never been called dandy before, so I'm both happy and embarrassed. Next time, please come as a couple or with your family. Please also send my regards to M. Saki and U. Guchi. We look forward to seeing you! Aloha!
Yasuさん、ご帰国後の忙しい中コメントを有難うございます。確かに男性3名でというのはあまりないケースでしたが、皆様がいいムードメーカーとなって頂いたお陰で、私達もとても楽しんでご案内させて頂く事が出来ました。 ダンディーと言われた事はないので、ウレシハズカシです。次回は是非、カップル、ご家族でいらして下さい。M崎さん、Uぐちさんにも是非宜しくお伝え下さい。楽しみにお待ちしております。アロハ!
It was my first snorkeling experience with my husband, and we had a great time! Right below us were corals and colorful fish!!
The hamburger for lunch was just the right amount of volume for our tired bodies after swimming.
However, since we were out in the ocean, it's understandable that the weather can greatly affect the experience.
主人と初のシュノーケルでしたが、とても楽しかったです(((o(*゚▽゚*)o)))
泳ぐすぐ下に珊瑚と色とりどりの魚たち!!
お昼のハンバーガーも泳ぎ疲れた身体にぴったりのボリュームでしたd(^_^o)
ただし、海に出るのでお天気に大きく左右されちゃうのは仕方が無いですかね´д` ;
Had a good time. Dissapointed that the scooter had to be moved around with a diver assisting.
We were really excited to do this tour! When we got there the tour guides were very friendly and chill. When we got out to where we were snorkeling I had a bit of a freak out when I got into the water. I looked down and saw so many fish under my feet! The one tour guide came over and helped me overcome my fear. I got in and out of the boat many times. We also saw so many turtles! After snorkeling we went on a nice sail while enjoying some well deserved drinks. All in all this was a fabulous for the price point of the tour! I would totally do this again!
Come back soon!
By chance, the day we participated, both the sky and the sea were calm, and the dolphins were in full play mode! They swam right past us multiple times, as if to say, "You're swimming too slowly!" This time we were lucky! The captain, Mr. Nawata, mentioned that the dolphins were coming close to us, and he was always considerate of all the participants to ensure everyone had a good time. We were truly fortunate to be guided by Mr. Nawata, who was full of hospitality. Our swim guide, Daisuke, was also reliable, pulling us along to the dolphins even when we lagged behind! We would love to participate again! Maybe next time in February for the whales... Thank you so much!
偶然にも参加した日は、空、海ともに穏やかで、気を良くしたイルカちゃんは遊びモード全開!! 「泳ぐの遅いわねッ」と言わんばかりに私たちの真横を何度も通り抜けていきました。
今回はラッキーだよ!イルカが寄って来てくれてるから・・・って、キャプテン縄田さんは言われてましたが、参加者全員に楽しんでもらおうと終始気遣ってくださいました。そんなホスピタリティ溢れる縄田さんにガイドしていただいた私たちは本当にラッキー♪♪スイムガイドのだいすけさんも頼もしくて、遅れをとった私たちをグイグイと引っ張りイルカちゃんのもとへ連れて行ってくれました!!
また参加させてくださいねッ!今度は2月のクジラですかね・・・
本当にありがとうございました。
Dear Kuri,
Thank you for your valuable comments, and I apologize for the late response. It truly was a lucky day. The photos turned out to be taken up close, didn't they? You mentioned making eye contact, and it certainly looks like you were looking at the camera. Please be sure to bring your children along next time you visit. All of our staff are looking forward to seeing you. Thank you very much for participating.
Kuri 様 返事が遅くなりましたが、貴重なコメント有難うございました。本当にラッキーな1日でした。お写真もすごく近くで撮れてたんですね。 目があったと仰っていましたが、確かにカメラ目線ですね。今度は是非子供さん達も連れて遊びにいらしてくださいね。スタッフ一同楽しみにお待ちしてますよ。ご参加頂きほんとに有難うございました。
It was my first time in Hawaii. I really wanted to experience the sandbar and snorkeling, so I signed up for this tour. The scenery was truly breathtaking and I was moved. It seemed like the timing wasn't great, as the water was quite high, reaching up to my knees, but the crew member YUKIKO took amazing photos that I can't help but admire every time I look back at them. She even made requests for poses in good spots to ensure that other participants wouldn't be in the frame, making it feel like I was being photographed by a professional! I had heard that there weren't many fish for snorkeling, but I saw plenty and had a great time! Thank you so much! I'm really glad I chose this tour!
初めてのハワイでした。サンドバーとシュノーケリングは絶対したかったのでこのツアーを申し込みました。本当に絶景で感動しました。時期が良くなかったようでけっこう海水が多く、ひざくらいの高さまでありましたが、クルーのYUKIKOさんが写真をとっても上手に撮ってくれて何度見返してもうっとりしてしまいます。しかも参加者が写りこまないようにいい場所でポーズのリクエストとかしてくれてプロのカメラマンに撮ってもらったみたいでした!シュノーケリングも魚少ないと噂で聞いていたわりにはたくさん見れて楽しかったです!本当にありがとうございました!このツアーにして本当によかったです!
I was able to meet many dolphins in the clear, deep blue sea! As soon as I entered the water, I could hear the dolphins communicating, and it was truly moving!! There was even a family with a baby (^^). I also got to see a large sea turtle, and it was really a wonderful experience. The guide was kind and seemed very experienced, so I felt safe participating. Thank you very much♪
透明度の高い真っ青な海でたくさんのイルカ達に会える事ができました!
海に入ったとたん、イルカ達の会話が聞こえて大感動!!
赤ちゃん連れの家族もいましたよ(^^)
大きな海ガメも見られたし、本当にステキな体験をさせていただきました。
ガイドさんは親切で、ベテランらしく安心して参加できました。
ありがとうございました♪
I was able to see a lot of fish. There were various species, and I could see large fish very closely. The water clarity was high, and the rental equipment was new and easy to use.
The staff were friendly and responded kindly.
すごくたくさんの魚を見ることができました。
種類も様々で、大きな魚も、すごく近くで見られます。
透明度も高く、レンタルの道具も新しく使いやすかったです。
スタッフの皆さんもフレンドリー、かつ親切に対応してくださいました。
The Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Captain Bob's Snorkel Cruise is, by far, one of the most amazing and fun tours I have taken during my visit to the beautiful island of Oahu! From lunch at the sand bar with a game of volleyball, to an area where we saw turtles of all sizes and a HUGE Manta Ray, to the coral reef for some snorkeling, the snorkel cruise was non-stop fun! The crew was so nice and I cannot thank them enough for their help, guidance, and dedication to making sure everyone had a great time! This will definitely be a tour I will go on when I go to Hawaii again. I definitely recommend this cruise!! :-)
I participated in a tour that included dolphin watching, snorkeling, and a barbecue lunch, and it was great. The participants were all foreigners, and the staff were kind, cheerful, and a lot of fun, making for an amazing half-day experience.
I was worried about getting seasick, but it was so enjoyable that I didn't have time to feel seasick at all, and I was completely fine.
The meeting point at the pier was very close to the hotel, which was very convenient.
The hamburgers grilled by the staff were the best!
イルカウォッチングとシュノーケル、
その上バーベキューランチ付のツアーがよかったので、
こちらのツアーに参加しました。
参加者は外国人ばかりで、スタッフも親切で明るくて
とっても楽しい方ばかりだったので、最高の半日が過ごせました。
船酔いを心配していましたが、
楽しくてあっという間で、
船酔いなんてしている暇がないくらいで
全然大丈夫でした。
集合場所の桟橋もホテルからすぐのところで、
とっても便利でした。
スタッフが焼いてくれるハンバーガーが
最高でした!
I participated in the afternoon session.
The malasada was very delicious.
During high tide, the water was up to my chest.
The BBQ was very tasty!!
I was glad to see the turtles up close.

Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour.
The sandbar shows various expressions at different times. While we cannot control nature, we are glad to hear that you enjoyed the sandbar and the tour as it is.
Please come back to the Paradise Ocean Tour to experience a different expression of the sandbar next time. We look forward to that day with the sea turtles.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。ツアーご参加ありがとうございます。
その時々で様々な表情を見せるサンドバー。自然をコントロールすることは出来ませんが、ありのままのサンドバーとツアーを楽しんで頂けたようで嬉しいです。
ぜひ!また次回違った表情のサンドバーに出会いに天国の海ツアーにお越しくださいね。その日を海がめとともにお待ちしてます。
You could rent a wetsuit for $10, and almost everyone did. Those who didn't looked really cold, so I thought it would be better to include that cost in the overall fee. It's a hassle to carry cash. When we went, we encountered a rare pod of dolphins, which was a once-in-a-year experience! The dolphins approached us!! We could even hear their sounds, and it was very moving!! After that, we seemed to have some extra time, so we headed out to look for other types of dolphins... Luckily, we encountered another pod, and the dolphins swam around the boat and jumped, which was amazing!! The snorkeling afterward was also great, as we got to see sea turtles. It was a very satisfying tour.
ウエットスーツが10ドルで借りられてほとんどの人が借りていました
借りてない人はすごく寒そうだったので
料金の中に組み込んでしまえばいいのにと思いました。
お金を持っていくのが面倒です。
私たちが行ったときは1年にあるかないかのイルカの大群に出会え
イルカの方から近づいてきてくれました!!
イルカの声も聴こえてとても感動しました!!
そのあと時間が余ったみたいで沖に出て他の種類のイルカを探しに・・・
これも運よくイルカの大群に出会え船の周りをイルカが泳いだり
ジャンプをして見せてくれたりすごかったです!!
そのあとのシュノーケリングもウミガメに出会え
大満足のツアーでした
I participated in the morning session!! It seemed to be high tide, so the sandbar was completely invisible, and there was quite a bit of seawater. It was beautiful, but a little disappointing... I think it's just luck, but I wonder if it's appropriate to call it a sandbar tour!!
午前の部に参加しました!!
満潮だったようでサンドバーは全く見えず
かなりの深さまで海水がありました
きれいでしたがちょっと残念でした・・・
運なんだと思いますが・・・サンドバーツアーと謳うのはどうかなぁと言った感じです!!

I took a couple of my students out there and it was amazing. The entire crew were professional and patient. It was the first time for some of the participants and some of them couldn't swim, but the divers were with us the entire time during the B.O.B. and assisting us while we snorkeled. If you get a chance, you have to check these guys out.
