The three siblings, two boys and one girl in elementary school, were able to enjoy themselves without getting bored, feeling excited and thrilled. They also provided children's wetsuits, which was reassuring. They safely and patiently guided my youngest daughter, who is not familiar with the ocean, to experience snorkeling. It seems that the fish and sea turtles that we saw, which we can't see at Waikiki Beach, left a lasting impression.

I was picked up from the hotel in Waikoloa, and although I was told that a confirmation couldn't be made, I was able to ride in a helicopter piloted by the only Japanese pilot (Mr. Mochizuki) whom I had requested via email in advance. Mr. Mochizuki provided explanations in both languages to the American couple accompanying us and to us, which made it very enjoyable.
It was my first experience in a helicopter, and there was no vibration, with glass all the way to the floor. I was able to see the lava flowing into the ocean at Kilauea Volcano, and it was amusing to see the cows grazing on the vast Parker Ranch appearing as tiny dots. I was surprised to hear about the elementary school that was affected by a tsunami, located on top of an 800-meter cliff in Waipi'o Valley, and we got very close to a waterfall that has a drop of 1,000 meters, allowing us to fully enjoy the majestic nature.
Waikoloa is a dry area with brown lava land, but as we got closer to Hilo, we experienced sudden rain and saw much greenery, making for a wonderful experience of the vastness and climate differences of the Big Island in a short time! (Driving around takes a whole day, right?) Additionally, on the way back, although we had to wait for a few minutes, we could purchase the video from that day that was on board the helicopter.
ワイコロアのホテルからピックアップしてもらい、確約は出来ないと言われていましたが事前に直接メールでお願いしていた唯一の日本人パイロット(望月さん)の操縦するヘリコプターに乗せていただき、望月氏が同乗のアメリカ人カップルと我々に2カ国語で交互に説明して下さったのでとても楽しかったです。
ヘリコプターは初体験でしたが、震動もなく足下までガラス張りなので、キラウエア火山では海に流れ落ちる溶岩を見ることが出来、広大なパーカー牧場では放牧されている牛たちがまるで点のように小さいのがおかしく、ワイピオバレーでは800mの絶壁の上にあった小学校が津波の被害にあった話に驚き、落差1000mもあるという滝のすぐ近くまで寄ってくださるなど雄大な自然を堪能できました。
ワイコロアは乾燥地帯で溶岩の茶色い土地ばかりですが、ヒロに近くなると突然の雨で緑も多くハワイ島の広さと気候の違いなど素晴らしい体験を短時間で出来ました!(車で周遊するのは1日掛かりですよね)
また、帰りには数十分待ちますが、ヘリコプターに搭載されていた当日のビデオを購入することも出来ます。

I was really looking forward to the heavenly sea! The sandbar!
The weather was great on the day, and the sea was emerald green!!!
Taking photos at the sandbar was fun, but what was even better was snorkeling with the sea turtles.
At the sea turtle point, they said, "Only those who are confident in swimming should enter the water," which made me a bit nervous, but I think if you can do a freestyle swim for 20-30 minutes, you'll be fine.
The water was a bit cold, but once I got in, I quickly got used to it.
Encountering real sea turtles in the water was truly moving.
I wonder if their shells are about 1 meter in diameter.
The sea turtles were bigger than I expected, gracefully swimming through the water, and they were so cute.
After returning to the boat, we were able to see many more sea turtles, and it was truly a satisfying tour.
Apparently, this tour has a 99.9% chance of encountering sea turtles! Amazing!
In our group, 100% of the participants were able to spot sea turtles.
Thank you so much to the crew and captain!
In the photos taken by T-chan, the turtle's head was clearly captured (^^)
とっても楽しみにしていた天国の海!サンドバー!
当日はお天気もよく、海がエメラルドグリーン!!!
サンドバーでの写真撮影も楽しかったですが、
それ以上に良かったのが海がめシュノーケルでした。
海がめポイントでは、「泳ぎに自信のある方のみ海に入ってください」とのことで、
少しどきどきしたのですが、
海で20~30分の平泳ぎができる方なら大丈夫だと思います。
水は少し冷たかったけど、入ってしまえばすぐに慣れました。
そして、海の中でのリアル海がめちゃんとの遭遇は本当に感動的でした。
背中の甲羅は直径1mくらいあるのかな。
思っていたより大きい海がめが、海の中を飛ぶようにふわふわ泳いでいるのが
とってもかわいかったです。
船に戻ってからもたくさんの海がめを見ることができて、
本当に満足したツアーでした。
なんとこのツアー、海がめ遭遇率99.9%だそうですよ!すごい☆
私たちの回でも、参加者の100%が海がめを目撃できました。
クルー&キャプテンのみなさま、本当にありがとうございます!

I was told that I would be able to see sea turtles, but the weather was bad and the water was murky, so I couldn't see them. However, it was great that only the tour boat here could go to the walkable shallow areas. I definitely recommend that everyone sign up for this tour! I plan to book here again the next time I go to Hawaii!
海がめにあえるということでしたが天候も悪く水がにごっていて見られませんでしたが、ここのツアーの船だけが歩ける浅瀬にいけるということでとてもよかったです。

I participated in the tour on the morning of March 6th. The weather was so nice that the sandbar was incredibly beautiful!! The scenery was so stunning that it looked like something out of a gravure idol photo book or a travel brochure, with a blue sky and blue sea. It really felt like a famous idol was there for a photo shoot. The tour guide also praised the sandbar today, saying it was the best!! I was truly moved the entire time. This tour is an amazing experience that you can fully enjoy when the weather is perfect.

When we went, it was the rainy season, so we imagined a contrast between the cloudy sky, the sea, and the white sandy beach, but it was a bit of a letdown. By the time we were leaving, the sun came out, which was really disappointing. The brightness of the staff saved the day.

Due to the rainy season, I felt a bit of chill, but thanks to the kind and fun guidance of staff member YASUKO, my whole family was able to truly appreciate the wonders of Hawaii and the enjoyment of the activities (^^). It was unimaginable to think we could reach the sandy beach by boat, even though we were so far from land.
At lunch afterward, we were surprised by an incredible BBQ that exceeded our expectations (ノ゜?゜)ノ. After the meal, we finally embarked on the sea turtle watching tour by boat... I was so moved by the sea turtles popping up here and there when suddenly, about 20 meters away, I spotted some dorsal fins... (゜_゜i) Oh no... I thought, "Is that a shark? (@Д@;)" but to my surprise, it was a manta ray! (⌒▽⌒;) For us, who are passionate about diving, the manta ray is the ultimate dream! Even staff member YASUKO got caught up in the excitement over the manta rays. Sorry, sea turtles (^∧^).
We experienced a double and triple joy. If we go to Hawaii again, this is definitely an activity we want to do again (^^).
雨季の為、やや寒さを感じましたがスタッフのYASUKOさんの親切で楽しいガイドのおかげで家族全員ハワイの素晴らしさとアクティビティの楽しさを実感できました(^^)陸からずっと離れているのに船で砂浜まで行くなんて考えられない世界でした。
その後のランチでは想像以上のBBQが用意され、皆ビックリしちゃいました(ノ゜?゜)ノ
食事が終わり、いよいよ船で海亀見学ツアーに・・・ぴょこぴょこ現れる海亀に感動していたら、20mほど向こうに背びれがチラホラ・・・(゜_゜i)タラー・・・『さ・さめかぁ(@Д@;』と思ったら、なななんとマンタでした(⌒▽⌒;) ダイビングが趣味の私たちには最大の憧れマンタ!!スタッフのYASUKOさんまで夢中になってのマンタ騒ぎになってしまいました。海亀さんごめんなさい(^∧^)

The meeting point was in a perfect location, just a five-minute walk from the Sheraton Keauhou Bay where we were staying. The catamaran was still new and very beautiful.
There were two of us and one other group of Japanese participants; everyone else was foreign. My husband is experienced with snorkeling, but I had only swum in a pool (where I could stand), so I was a bit scared at first. However, after being given a float, I was able to see many fish and was incredibly impressed! After seeing the lava tunnel, we dropped anchor in front of the Captain Cook monument, which apparently cannot be accessed by car. I was able to snorkel again. When we got out of the water, there was a wonderful smell...
It was the barbecue being cooked by the staff. We also enjoyed some wine, and the hamburgers were huge—probably three times the size of Japanese patties. It was a pleasant voyage with the sea breeze. Neither of us speaks English, but we had no trouble at all and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We would love to participate again.
私たちが泊まっているシェラトンケアホウベイからは歩いて5分という絶好の位置に集合場所はありました。カタマラン(双胴船)はまだ新しく、とても綺麗でした。
参加者は私達2人ともう1組の日本人の他は全員外国のかたでした。
主人はシュノ−ケルにもなれているのですが、プ−ルでしか泳いだ経験のない(足の着く所)私は始めは、こわかったです。しかしうきを貸してもらってたくさんの魚を見ることが出来て大感激!!溶岩トンネルを見た後、キャプテンクックのモニュメントの前で碇をおろし、ここは車で来ることはできないそうです。もういちど、シュノーケルをさせてもらえました。海からあがると、とてもいいにおいが・・・

I am nearsighted, so I usually wear regular snorkeling glasses, but I could hardly see anything. However, this time I was able to borrow glasses specifically for nearsightedness for the first time. Thanks to the captain who helped me find the right pair, my wife and I were able to dive (just floating in the waves) and saw amazing things. There were fish swimming right there! It was so moving!
While seeing the fish was great, the contrast of the catamaran sailing towards the horizon and the quiet navigation to the lava remnants (I didn’t understand the explanations since they were in English...) was wonderful. When the waves were calm, the feeling of racing at full speed across that sea made me feel exhilarated, and I think I forgot all about worldly matters.
Also, while the interaction with nature was nice, the barbecue prepared by the staff on the boat was very delicious. I definitely want to participate again next time!
と言うのも私は近眼ですので普通のシュノ−ケルグラスをつけていました。でもほとんど見えない状態でした。が、今回初めて近眼用のを貸していただきました。キャプテンが私に合うのを探してくださったおかげです。家内と潜る(単なる波間に漂う)と素晴らしいものが見えました。すぐそこに魚が泳いでるのです。ア・ア感動!でもっての冒頭の感動詞です。魚を見るのもいいですがカタマランの水平線への運航、溶岩跡への静かな運転と説明(英語ですのでわかりませんが・・・)好対照で素晴らしかったです。波が静かな時、あの海をフルスピ−ドで疾走した時気持ちが、高揚し世俗のことは、すべて忘れてしまうと思います。

I had a really great time. This was my second time snorkeling, and the staff were very kind and accommodating. There were four of us in total, but one person couldn't swim at all and was quite scared. However, they gently guided them while teaching them. The waves were strong, so we snorkeled quite far inside the bay, but we were able to see sea turtles up close. Everyone should definitely bring an underwater camera (they're sold at Narita Airport too). They provide all the equipment (fins, masks, snorkels, life jackets) and carry it for you, plus drinks and snacks are included. They even helped us put on the fins while assisting us in the water. The staff spoke Japanese very well, so I felt safe participating. Even when the entrance is crowded, you can skip the line and get in without waiting. The price might seem higher than other tours, but it is definitely worth the value!
とっても楽しかったですね。シュノーケルは2度目なのですがとても親切に対応してくださいました。全員で4名ですしたが 1名の方が全く泳げずかなり怖がっておりましたが、優しく手を引きながら 教えておりました。波が強くかなり湾の内側でシュノーケルしましたが、海亀も至近距離で見ることができました。皆さん是非水中カメラ持っていきましょう(成田空港でも売ってます) 器材(足ひれ、マスク、シュノーケル、ライフジャケット)は全て運んで下さるし、飲み物スナックがつきます。
足ひれも海の中でアシストしながら履かせて頂きました。日本語とっても上手なスタッフで 安心して参加できます。入場に混んでるときでも 並ばずスルーしてはいれますので、ちょっと値段は他のツアーより高く見えますが お値段以上の価値は絶対ありますよ。

I participated with my wife and daughter, who is over sixty. At first, my wife and daughter were against snorkeling, saying, "We can't do that!" However, I convinced them by saying, "When we go to Hawaii, it's good to do things we normally can't do, and with a skilled guide, we'll be absolutely fine." So, we signed up before leaving Japan.
The result was a great success! The kind foreigner who picked us up at the hotel eased my worries when I briefly thought, "What about Japanese?" as he spoke fluent Japanese, quickly alleviating my concerns. Thanks to Jim, who directly instructed and guided us in snorkeling, and Alan, my wife, who initially struggled with floating and breathing, was able to reach a point where we could see sea turtles and truly enjoyed an amazing hour of underwater observation.
On the sandy beach, we had unlimited snacks and drinks, and since we didn't bring a camera for safety reasons, they even took underwater photos of us and delivered them to our hotel the next day. I was truly impressed by the exceptional service.
My wife and daughter were overjoyed, saying, "This was the happiest and most enjoyable event of our Hawaii trip," and I felt proud for planning and signing us up for this tour. Thank you so much, Alan and Jim (we are the three Japanese family who participated on the afternoon of the 11th).

We participated as a pair. Alan, the expert, is American but spoke Japanese well. He kindly gave us advice, and my partner, who was anxious about her first snorkeling experience, was able to enjoy it fully. The snorkeling equipment was easy to use and felt safe. We even got to see a sea turtle. I highly recommend this for anyone visiting Hanauma Bay for the first time. However, it was a bit disappointing that the snorkeling time was just a little over an hour. I wished we could have taken our time.

I've been to Hawaii many times, but when you venture to places that can only be accessed through tours, you encounter breathtaking views and experiences you've never seen before!!
During my stay, there were many days with bad weather (;_;), but on the day of the highly anticipated Heavenly Ocean Tour, it was clear from the morning ◎
The view of the sandbar when it's sunny is absolutely stunning; it's a dreamlike beauty that you can only see here. I felt a bit shy, but I took a lot of photos.
I was also able to see sea turtles while snorkeling, so it was a very satisfying day.
Even for those who aren't fond of intense activities, I think this is something you can enjoy.

This is my second time participating in the snorkeling tour organized by Fair Wind. Last time, I joined the morning cruise for snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay, but this time I decided to join the Flukes Deluxe Snorkel/Scuba Cruise, which I had been interested in for a while. Both tours take you to Kealakekua Bay, where the water is clear and you can encounter many fish. The Flukes cruise has a new and luxurious feel to the boat, and it takes you to the southern waters at quite a speed, so I think you can enjoy not just snorkeling but also the feeling of cruising at a resort. The snorkeling point for the morning cruise is just one location (in front of Captain Cook), but the Flukes takes you to two spots. The caves that the Flukes takes you to are very mystical. We were fortunate enough to swim alongside a sea turtle. Fair Wind's snorkeling tours also provide prescription snorkeling masks, so those who usually wear glasses can participate without any worries.

First, we watched a video about the history of Hanauma Bay, and there were headphones available in Japanese, so I understood everything perfectly. It was a bit chilly in January, but the beautiful sea and fish were amazing. It was the perfect place for snorkeling. By the way, they also offer rentals.

A trip to Hawaii Island without a rental car for two women. We arrived at the Fair Wind office after about a 15-minute taxi ride from Royal Kona Resort (including tip, it was $20). When we handed over the voucher at the check-in counter, we received our boarding passes. We just needed to present those when boarding.
The day before, I had severe seasickness during the manta night snorkeling, so I was quite hesitant about getting on the boat. However, it turned out to be a larger boat than I expected, and I didn't experience any seasickness. The cruise to the snorkeling spots was fantastic, with beautiful views and a refreshing breeze.
All participants, except for an elderly Japanese couple, were foreigners. Although Japanese was hardly understood, there was no problem as snorkeling gear in the right sizes was provided on the boat.
For breakfast, there were croissants, eggs, fruits, yogurt, and oatmeal. The carrot juice was refreshing and delicious. There were two snorkeling spots. The water was deep, but the visibility was high, and we could see many fish. The staff guided us even into the caves, which was very satisfying.
After swimming at the two spots, the hamburger for lunch was thick and filling. It was so delicious that I finished it all. We were thrilled to see dolphins both going and coming back. I was moved by their jumping and swimming around the boat.
On the way back, we stopped by Captain Cook and received a history lesson. (I only understood a little English, so I didn't grasp much, but it was amusing.) Among the optional tours I participated in during this trip (Atlantis, manta night snorkeling, Hawaii Island day tour), I think this was the best tour. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii Island again, I would definitely like to participate.

Initially, we thought we could manage snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, which looks shallow like a sandbar, and we were unsure which tour to choose. In the end, we decided to go with an expert, and that was the right choice! To the untrained eye, Hanauma Bay appears relatively shallow and calm, but it was indeed not enough for us, and we couldn't venture far on our own. However, by entrusting ourselves to the expert, we were taken to a nice spot near the entrance of the bay, where sea turtles kept appearing, and we even encountered a manta ray, returning completely satisfied. We were a party of four women, and surprisingly, there were waves in the bay, so unless you are confident swimmers, you really can't go far without a guide. All four of us agreed that "Hanauma Bay is tough!" It seems that you can't encounter fun experiences without going through some challenges. The weather on land worsened with heavy rain from the morning, but we returned feeling so satisfied that we didn't mind the weather at all. Thank you so much to our expert guide, Alan, who took care of us and even helped with photo taking (which was provided on a CD as a service)!
申し込み当初、浅瀬のように見えるハナウマ湾でのシュノーケリングで自分たちでも

素人目には、わりあいと浅瀬で静かに見えるハナウマ湾ですが、やはり浅瀬ではものたりず、さりとて自分たちでは遠くにいけず・・そこで達人におまかせすれば、湾の入り口近くのナイススポットまで出かけ、海亀さんはどんどん現れるは、マンタにも遭え大満足で戻ってきました。女性4名のパーティでしたが湾は以外に波があり、それなりに泳ぎに自信のある方以外はやはり達人ガイドさん無しでは遠くにはいけません。4人とも口を揃えて言ったのは、「ハナウマ湾はキツイ!!」ってことでした。キツイ思いをしなければ楽しいことには出会えない・・ってことです。陸地は朝からの雨模様が激化してどしゃぶり!なりふりかまわずの状態でしたが、そんなお天気も気にならないような満足で戻ってきました。不慣れな4人を引き連れながら、こまごまとお世話され、写真の撮影(これはCD化してサービス!)までして下さった達人アランさん、本当にありがとうございました。

I enjoyed snorkeling at the famous Kealakekua Bay, known for its high transparency. Before leaving the country, I completed my reservation and payment online, and I was impressed by how convenient things have become.
On the day of the trip, my friend and I were the only Japanese participants, and I was worried since we couldn't speak English. However, the crew members were very kind, and their bright smiles reassured me even without words.
The boat was larger than usual, and the facilities, including fresh water showers, were excellent! Moreover, it was fantastic that the boat moved quickly over the water with minimal rocking. Watching the marine blue surface of the sea under the sun while feeling the sea breeze washed away my usual fatigue.
We were also lucky to spot dolphins from a distance along the way.
For lunch, we had a BBQ on board. The hamburger after a swim was delicious! I enjoyed it with my favorite drink until I was full.
When I encountered fish I didn't recognize, the staff kindly brought out a guidebook and showed me pictures.
I definitely want to participate again. Thank you, Alan!
今回は透明度が高くて有名なケアラケクア湾でシュノーケルを楽しんできました。出国前からオンラインで予約申し込み&支払いを済ませ、世の中便利になったものだと感心したものです。
当日は日本人が私と友人の2人のみ、英語が話せないので心配になりましたが、乗船スタッフ皆さんがとても優しく、言葉が通じなくても明るい笑顔に安心しました。
船は一般的なものより大きく真水のシャワーなど設備もすばらしかったです!また、なによりも揺れが少なく高速で海上を移動できるのが最高です。太陽の下でマリーンブルーの海面を眺めながら潮風に吹かれると、普段の疲れが一掃されます。
途中からイルカの姿も遠目に見られ、とてもラッキーでした。
昼食は船上でバーベQランチです。ひと泳ぎした後のハンバーガーはこれまた美味しい!好みのドリンクと一緒にお腹一杯いただきました。
わからない魚はスタッフさんが、親切に図鑑を持ち出し写真をみせてくれました。
またまた、ぜひ参加したいと思います。
アランちゃん、ありがとう!

On the first day of my arrival on the Big Island, I participated in this tour. After renting a car at Kona Airport, I headed straight to the meeting point, arriving at 1 PM to prepare and board the boat at 2 PM. It was raining, but we were still able to snorkel. An hour after boarding, we reached a fairly deep spot near the Captain Cook monument. Due to the bad weather, not much was captured on the underwater camera, but I was able to see fish with my own eyes. As for the snacks, we were served pineapple, oranges, potato chips, and drinks. I wasn't sure if there was a paid drink menu, but I was able to order something casually and they brought it to me. In this tour, we were the only Japanese participants. There were no staff members who spoke Japanese. It felt like being in a foreign party, as the foreigners on board were happily chatting away.
ハワイ島に着いた初日に参加。コナ空港でレンタカーを借りてすぐに集合地に向かい13時につき準備をして14時に乗船できました。雨がふっていましたが、シュノーケルできました。乗船して1時間後、キャプテンクックの記念碑のそばでかなり深い場所でした。天気が悪かったので水中カメラで撮ったものはあまり写っていませんが、肉眼で魚を見ることができました。軽食というだけあって、パイナップルとオレンジ、ポテトチップスと飲み物がでました。飲み物は有料メニューがあるのかないのか不明でしたが、適当に頼んだらだしてもらえます。このツアーに日本人は私達しかいませんでした。スタッフも日本語が話せる人もいません。外国のパティーにでもきたような位、乗船中は外国人が楽しそうに談話してます。

I visited Hanauma Bay last spring as well. At that time, I borrowed snorkeling gear, but I couldn't do it well on my own and spent most of the time on the beach. This time, I wanted to see a turtle, so I joined a guided tour. It was just my father and me, but unfortunately, my father's stamina gave out halfway through. However, I was able to see a turtle, and my father got to see beautiful fish that he wouldn't normally see. Also, the guide was very kind, so we were extremely satisfied. I wanted to thank the guide, but I forgot to ask for their name. (We participated on Wednesday, October 4th at 12:30.) Please be sure to convey my gratitude!
昨年春にも訪れたハナウマベイ。
その時もシュノーケリングの道具を借りたけど、自分ひとりでは上手く出来ずに、ほとんど浜にいました・・。
今度こそ、カメを見たいと、今回はガイド付きツアーに参加。
父と二人の参加でしたが、結果的に父の体力が続かなくて途中で断念したものの、
カメは見られたし、父も、普段では見られないキレイな魚が見られて、
また、ガイドさんがとても親切な方だったので、大満足でした。
ガイドさんに、お礼を言いたかったのですが、お名前を聞くのを忘れていました・・。(10月4日水曜日12:30からの参加です)
是非、よろしくお伝え下さい!

I finally participated in the snorkeling tour at Croissant Island, which I had wanted to try for a long time. I worked hard to get to the pickup point early in the morning, but although the pickup van (it was a taxi) arrived on time, one of the participants didn't show up, which caused a delay of about 15 minutes. In the end, we departed as is, and although we stopped at another hotel, it was also a bust. I wonder if it was poor coordination from the company or the participants. By the time we arrived at the dock, we were almost last. There were about 80 people in total, with around 20 Japanese. In the first-floor cabin, a Japanese guide explained everything clearly until we reached the snorkeling spot. I thought it was strange that a family group wasn't paying attention, but they were speaking in Korean (they probably didn't understand the explanation). The weather was perfect, and I even had my first experience with snuba, which was well supported, so I was almost satisfied. However, I wished for more clarity in the water and more tropical fish! The food and atmosphere on the boat were quite casual, but the Japanese guide was very helpful with explanations and support in the water, so I give it four stars! On the way back, the taxi we took to the dock was waiting for us, and we went straight back to the hotel just the two of us. Considering the taxi fare was included, it was a great tour.
以前から行ってみかったクロワッサンアイランドのシュノーケルにとうとう参加、早朝からガンバってピックアップポイントへ、、ところが、ピックアップのバン(タクシーでした)は時間どうりに来たものの、参加予定の何とかさんが来ない、、という事で15分程ロス、結局そのまま発車、もう一軒ホテルへ寄るものの、ここも空振り、会社の連携が悪いのか、参加者が悪いのか、船着場に着いたらほぼ最後だったようです。みんなで80人程、日本人は20人程でしたが、一階の船室で日本人ガイドのお姉さんからスポット到着まできっちりと説明してもらいました。話を聞いてない家族のグループがいて変だなと思っていたらハングル語で話していました。(説明分からないわね。)天気はバッチリ、おまけにスヌーバも初体験してサポートも良かったし、ほぼ満足でした。でも、もっと透明度と熱帯魚が欲しかった!船内の食事とか雰囲気は結構庶民的でしたが、日本人ガイドのお姉さんが説明や海でのサポートに大活躍していたので、星4つ!帰りは行きのタクシーが船着場で待って居てくれて二人だけでホテルへ直行。タクシー代込みと考えたらお得なツアー。

The snorkeling had great visibility, and I really enjoyed it. At the point where we could see turtles, I was thrilled to see them come up close and take a breath. (You could even hear the sound of them breathing from that distance!) I heard that some days you might only see one turtle, so it seems I was lucky.
シュノーケルは透明度もよく楽しめました。
カメの見られるポイントでは、身近にカメのあがって来るところや息継ぎする様子が見られて感激しました。
(息をつぐ音も聞ける距離です!)
日によっては1匹しか見られない日もあるそうなので、ラッキーだったみたいです。

I went to Hawaii Island for the first time and participated in snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay. The guidebooks say it's better in the morning, but I joined the afternoon tour and had plenty of fun. The crew is all foreign, so there might be some language barriers, but they are experienced, so there's no need to worry. The atmosphere was great, and I really enjoyed it. The sea was calm, and if you're lucky, you might catch some fish along the way, and there’s a chance of encountering dolphins while snorkeling. Unfortunately, I didn't see any when I went. The boat was comfortable as well. It's a large catamaran, so I didn't see anyone getting seasick.
今回はじめてハワイ島に行きケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングに参加しました。ガイドブックなどには午前中のほうがいいとかいてありましたが、私が参加したのは午後のツアーでしたが、じゅうぶん楽しめました。クルーは全て外人なのでやや言葉に困るかもしれませんがみななれているので心配は要らないでしょう。のりがよくとてもたのしめました。海もしずかで途中うんがよければ魚もつれるし、シュノーケル中にイルカに出くわすこともあるそうです。残念ながら私が行ったときにはあえませんでしたが。船も快適です。大型のカタマラン船なので船酔いしている人はみかけませんでした。

I participated in a sea cruise tour of the Na Pali Coast. During the snorkeling, we were able to snorkel in a spot with visibility of over 20 meters, where we got to see seals up close and a lot of fish. The waters around Kauai can be quite rough, but the staff did an excellent job with safety management. The snorkeling gear provided was clean and available in various sizes, so I felt secure while snorkeling. Additionally, we spotted a pod of dolphins about three times. It was great how they would slow down and show off when we approached them.
The Na Pali Coast itself is magnificent and truly breathtaking, but with our limited English skills, we struggled to understand the crew's explanations. I thought it would have been even more enjoyable if there had been more information available in Japanese online beforehand. However, at that moment, I was so blessed with good weather that I couldn't help but have a great time!
The meeting time was at 6 AM, which is a bit early, but the breakfast and lunch were delicious, so it was fine. There were also snacks and cookies provided along the way, and the restrooms were clean, so there was nothing to worry about. The other participants in the tour were mostly Americans (there were about 40 of them), and it was fun to chat a little with them.
ナパリコーストのシークルーズツアーに参加しました。
シュノーケルでは透明度が20m以上ありそうな場所でやらせてもらい、間近でアザラシが見れたり、お魚さんたちもいっぱい見れました。カウアイ島付近はとても波が荒いのですが、スタッフの方々が安全管理をバッチリしてくださるので、貸し出されたシュノーケルセットもきれいでサイズも多種そろえられているし、安心してシュノーケルすることができました。また、途中イルカの群れを3度ほど見れました。イルカの群れをいち早く発見し近づくとスピードを落としてサービスしてくれるのもいけていました。
ナパリコースと自体は、壮大で感動に値するものですが、私たちの英語力ではクルーの説明が理解できず、事前に日本語の説明がもう少しネットで見れたらもっと楽しめたかな、と思いました。が、そのときはそんなことを感じさせないくらい、天候にも恵まれ楽しくて仕方ありませんでしたけど!
当日は6時集合で少し早いですが、朝食も昼食もおいしいので大丈夫。途中、スナックやクッキーのサービスもあるし、トイレも清潔だし、困ることはなにもありません。ツアーに参加しているのは私たち以外ははアメリカ人で(40人はいたかな)、ちょっとおしゃべりできたりもして、それはそれで楽しかったです。

We are so grateful to know how much you enjoyed your time on the water and want to thank you for choosing us here at Holo Holo Charters! Mahalo and Aloha

I participated on September 8th. On that day, I had a bit of trouble and arrived late, but since we were the only ones on the tour at that time, they patiently waited for us. The guide's name was Alan, and he mentioned that he is not related to alan1. Alan was very good at Japanese, but he was also a friendly Hawaiian who made sure we felt like we were truly in Hawaii. Thank you!
It was my first time snorkeling, and we went quite deep, getting to see fish and turtles. At first, I panicked a little while snorkeling, but that was just at the beginning. I think I was able to enjoy the true essence of snorkeling without fear because of our expert guide. Alan was really an expert and he also does scuba diving. I felt genuinely safe underwater. Later, I went snorkeling in other seas as well. I might be hooked!
9/8に参加しました。当日はトラぶって一人遅れてしまいましたが、そのときのツアーが私たちだけだったこともあり、気長に待っててくれました。ガイドの名はアランでalan1とは関係ないんですって。だよな。。アランは日本語がとても上手で、でも、ハワイ(外国)に来たことをちゃんと感じれる気さくなハワイアンでした。ありがとう!
シュノーケは初めてでしたが、かなり深いところまで行って、魚や亀のいるところまで連れてってもらえました。シュノーケ、初めは少しパニくるけど、それも初めだけ。恐怖もなく、シュノーケの醍醐味を味わえたのは達人ならではのガイドだったからだと思います。アランはほんとに達人で、スキューバもやるそうです。海の中でマジで安心しました。後日、ほかの海でもシュノーケやりました。はまったかも?

I recently participated in an event. We were the only Japanese people there, but the staff and the other participants were very friendly, and we had a great time.
It takes some time to get to Molokini Island, and the waves can be rough, so I think it's best for those who get motion sickness to take medication. (Even if you do get seasick, you can lie down, but it would be a shame to miss the beautiful scenery.)
The underwater scenery was very beautiful, and we even encountered a sea turtle, with plenty of fish swimming around. I think it would be great to bring an underwater camera.
The meals served on the boat were delicious, especially with the beautiful views. I lost track of time swimming, so I was exhausted that day... but it was a lot of fun.
先日参加しました。日本人は私達だけでしたが、スタッフや、一緒に参加された方々がとてもフレンドリーで、楽しく過ごすことができました。
モロキニ島まで多少時間がかかるのと、波も荒いので、乗り物酔いをする方は、必ず薬を服用された方が良いと思います。(もし、船酔いされても、横になることは出来ますが、折角の景色が見られないのはもったいないので。。。)
海中はとても綺麗でした☆海がめにも出会えたましたし、魚も沢山泳いでいましたよ。水中カメラを持参されると、良いと思います。
船上で頂くお食事も、綺麗な風景と相まって、美味しかったですよ。
時間を忘れて泳ぎまくったので、その日はグッタリ。。。でも、とても楽しかったです。

I participated in this in August 2006. The morning assembly was at 6 AM, which made waking up tough, but I think it was definitely worth it. The view of the Na Pali Coast from the boat is breathtaking, and we even saw dolphins there. Additionally, the boat entered a mystical sea cave, where the light shining into the water allowed us to see the beautiful emerald green of the sea. While snorkeling around Niihau Island, I encountered Hawaiian monk seals twice underwater. The photos were taken with a regular digital camera.
Now, once you board the boat, make sure to grab a seat at the table at the back. After departing the harbor, drinks and breakfast are served right away. On the way out, only non-alcoholic beverages are served, but on the return trip, beer is unlimited. Breakfast consists of fruit and bread, but the bagels with cream cheese that you can spread as much as you like are quite delicious. The boat's rocking depends on the sea conditions, so unless you're a professional fisherman, it's a good idea to take motion sickness medication before boarding and pack an extra tablet for the return trip. Each person is responsible for managing their valuables.
Once we arrive at the Na Pali Coast, a stunning view awaits. Dolphins seem to reside in the waters of the Na Pali Coast, so I think you can almost certainly see them. When I was there, I was even lucky enough to see them spinning and jumping. I've heard of spinner dolphins, but I was skeptical about whether wild dolphins actually do that, and it turns out they really do! After leaving Na Pali, the boat heads toward Niihau Island. During the trip, the crew frequently checks in with "everything OK?" Since it's in English, even if it's not OK, you can only say it's OK, but you can feel that they care. I guess they just want to know if you need a drink.
The snorkeling point is between Niihau Island and Lehua Island, right next to Lehua Island. This Lehua Island is a seabird sanctuary, and there were many seabirds around. The monk seals were also taking a nap. I wished I had binoculars. There were tropical fish, and the water was incredibly clear, but the fish were far away. The depth in deeper areas is unknown, so let's avoid going too deep. The crew was keeping a close watch on us. There are two toilets, but no changing rooms. There was a simple shower available. For lunch, we had hamburgers after snorkeling. There were various vegetables and ham available, and we could make our own sandwiches, along with some fruit. The bagels from the morning...
2006年の8月に参加してきました。朝の集合は6時と朝起きるのにつらいものがありましたが、いく価値は十分にあると思います。船からみるナパリコーストは圧巻だし、そこでイルカもみれたし、さらに神秘的な海洞にも船が入って、海に差し込む光の関係で、美しい海のエメラルドグリーンを見ることができました。ニイハウ島でのシュノーケリング中にはハワイアンモンクシールにも2回、海中で会うことができました。写真は普通のデジカメで撮影したものです。さて、船に上船したら、船後方のテーブルのある席をゲットしましょう。港を出港しましたら、さっそく飲みのものと朝ご飯のサービスがあります。行きはノンアルコール飲料のみのサービスで、帰りはビールも飲み放題です。朝ご飯はフルーツとパンですが、クリームチーズを自分の好きなだけつけて食べるベーグルはかなりいけます。船の揺れは海の状況によるので、職業漁師でない限り酔い止めを乗船前に飲んでおき、帰りように1錠荷物に入れておきましょう。貴重品は各自自己管理です。まもなくナパリコーストに到着したら、絶景がまっています。イルカはナパリコーストの海に住み着いているらしくほぼ確実にみれると思います。私のときはさらに幸運なことにくるくるまわってジャンプしてくれました。スピナードルフィンとか聞いたことあるけど、ほんまにそんなこと野生のイルカがするのかと疑っていましたが、ほんとにするみたいです。ナパリを後にして、ニイハウ島に船は向かいます。乗船中クルーの人達はしきりにeverything OK~と聞いてきてくれます。英語なので、もしOKでなくてもOKというしかないけど、気にかけてくれてる感は伝わります。まぁ飲み物いらないかってことみたいです。シュノーケルのポイントはニイハウ島とレフア島の間で、レフア島のすぐ横です。このレフア島は海鳥保護区で、多くの海鳥がいました。モンクシールもお昼寝してました。双眼鏡がほしかったです。熱帯魚もいて、透明度抜群の海ですが、お魚が遠いです。深いところは水深不明。深みには行かないようにいたしましょう。クルーの人もしっかり見張ってくれていました。トイレは2つあり、更衣室はないです。簡易のシャワーはありました。お昼ご飯は、シュノの後にハンバーガーでした。野菜とハム数種類がおいてあり、各自自由に作って食べる形式で、フルーツもでました。朝のベーグルが

We participated as two families. Since it was an English tour, I was a bit anxious, but with the voucher, there were no issues at the reception. Once on board, the staff was kind, which made me feel at ease. The boat anchored in about 8 meters of water. Although I started snorkeling feeling a bit overwhelmed at first, I gradually got used to it and began to see fish and even dive a little...
The kids boldly played by jumping into the sea from the second deck of the boat using a slide and diving from the deck (4-5 meters). The parents also returned to their childhood and jumped in as well.
There are two episodes related to the camera...
First, a friend's husband dove from the deck with a camera! When he came up from underwater, he had a cut on his forehead... the camera had hit him. Fortunately, the injury wasn't too serious, but the camera was broken. For some reason, we all ended up laughing... everything becomes fun when you're here.
Second, my husband came down the stairs from the deck with ease. However, he slipped at the end! The camera he was holding disappeared into the sea. But the staff dove in and found the camera for us. We were so moved. Thank you very much.
2家族で参加しました。英語のツアーなので不安でしたがバウチャーがあれば、受付で困ることはありませんよ。乗船してからもスタッフが優しいので安心でした。船は停泊したのは、水深8M位のところ。シュノーケルを始めたもののアップアップしてしまい始めは不安でしたが慣れてくるとお魚を見たりちょっと潜ってみたり・・・
子供たちは、船の2Fデッキから滑り台で海へ飛び込んだり、デッキ(4~5M)から海へ飛び込んだり、大胆に遊んでいました。親たちも童心に帰って飛び込んでみたりしちゃいました。
そこでカメラにまつわる2つのエピソードが・・・
その1.友人のご主人は、カメラを持ってデッキからダイビング!!水中から顔を上げるとおでこに血が・・・・カメラが当たってしまったのです。けがは、それほどでもなったのですかカメラが壊れてしまったのです。でもなぜか大笑い・・ここにいると何でも楽しくなってしまいます。
その2.私の夫は、軽快にデッキから階段を下りてきました。ところが最後にツル!
手に持っていたカメラが海のそこへ~~消えていきました。ところが、スタッフのかたが潜ってカメラを探してきてくれたのです。もう大感激でした。ありがとうございました。
