My family had so much fun turtle snorkeling. My son got scared going in the middle of the ocean but the staff had him on his board and took him around to see the turtles and taught him so many fun facts. We had a special treat of having dolphins swim alongside the boat. Would recommend this to anyone thinking of snorkeling with turtles.

On the day of the visit, there was a sandbar, so we could walk. However, because the tide was low, the paddle boat was too shallow and got stuck, making it difficult to ride. Snorkeling was great as we were able to see two turtles. It was allowed to bring in beer, so we brought two bottles and chilled them. It seemed that people from Taiwan brought a case of six. Enjoying beer while snacking was the best!
当日はサンドバーが出ていて歩けました 逆に潮が引いていたためパドルボートが浅すぎて引っかかって上手く乗れなかった シュノーケリングは亀が2匹も見れて良かったです ビール持ち込みOKとなっていたので2本持っていって冷やしていただきました 台湾からの人は6本ケースで持ってきていたようです スナックを食べながらのビール最高でした
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. We were delighted to have you meet the sandbar and the honu (sea turtle) that you could almost see but not quite. And enjoying a beer in the ocean! I'm glad to hear that you were able to fully enjoy the paradise of the sea. Please join us again, bringing your own beer. We look forward to that day.

I had a wonderful time in the beautiful weather of Hawaii Island!
We first went offshore to find dolphins, but unfortunately, we couldn't see any. However, it felt great to speed along in the rubber boat!
The snorkeling was also beautiful. I think there might be more variety of fish in places like Kerama in Okinawa. The water clarity was about 25 meters!
After snorkeling for about an hour, we returned while getting explanations about the lava caves along the coastline.
ハワイ島の最高の天気の中、素敵な時間を過ごせました!
最初にイルカを見つけに沖合に出ましたが、残念ながら会えませんでしたでもゴムボートでスピード出して進むのでとても気持ち良かったです!
シュノーケルも綺麗でした。沖縄のケラマとかの方が魚の種類は多いかな?透明度は25mくらいあったと思います!
小1時間シュノーケルした後に戻りながら海岸線の溶岩洞窟の説明などもしてくれました。

We thought it was really cool that some of our favorite movies were filmed around the area also.

It was cold - the boat ride and the water condition once we arrived. The visibility of the water was very poor. We didn't see any fish. It was just an unpleasant experience. We did this tour with another company many years ago and it was very nice. I understand weather conditions are outside the tour company's control but they can warn customers when they know it's bad and provide options to cancel the tour.

This was a great day after wedding activity. We made this an optional activity for our friends and family the day after our wedding ceremony. The live music and stories on board were even better than we expected and they knew and played our first dance song! the views and experience are really special. We had done a smaller catamaran experience before but halfway through the wedding party for that wedding were all getting seasick (partially from hangovers but the rocking didn't help). This boat is large enough you don't feel a thing and it's in the bay with calmer waters. I highly recommend!

I couldn't make a reservation until the last minute, but they were very kind and responded quickly. It was great since I wouldn't have been able to go on my own!
The waves were huge due to high tide, and I got swept away by the waves several times. Although the water wasn't clear, thanks to the high tide, I was able to see sea turtles!
I also saw a lot of fish, which was nice.
Since the water can be cold, those who are sensitive to the cold might want to wear a wetsuit.
予約開始ははギリギリでないとできなかったのですが、早めに対応して下さりとても親切でした。個人ではなかなか行けないので良かったです!
満ち潮のときだったのですごい波で、何度も波に流されました。透き通った海ではなかったのですが、満ち潮のおかげでウミガメが見れました!
魚もたくさん見れてよかっです。

It was great to travel by boat while listening to live music; it really added to the experience. Although we didn't go to a sandbar, the sea was beautiful, and we saw plenty of fish swimming around. Even as a beginner, I was taught carefully, and there were no dangerous spots at all. I could feel that all the staff were eager to make it enjoyable for everyone. However, I was disappointed that while the Japanese staff were very friendly to foreigners, they didn't seem as welcoming to Japanese guests.

The plan included lunch. The people around us at our assigned seats were already eating or had finished their meals, so we thought we should go get our food ourselves. When I asked if I could take this (something like a sandwich), a Japanese woman came over and said not to take it because the staff would bring it. However, no one brought us lunch no matter how long we waited. The staff had said they would bring it, but they didn't. There was a lack of responsibility. It wasn't a cheap tour, and since it was stated that lunch was included, we went without eating... I even went to get it because that person said they would bring it. The way she said it was quite harsh. What should have been a fun activity turned into an unpleasant memory. I swam on an empty stomach, felt unwell, and couldn't enjoy myself. It's really disappointing because the other crew members were very kind and friendly.
プランには昼食つきとありました。席を振り分けられ座った場所の周囲の人たちはすでに食事中か食事が済んでいたので自分たちで食事をとりに行くのだと思い取りに行ってコレ(サンドイッチのようなもの)を持って行っていいか聞くと日本人?の女の人がやってきてスタッフが持ってくるから取るなと言いました。しかし待っても待っても誰も昼食を私達に運んではくれませんでした。
スタッフが持ってくると日本人?の女のスタッフは言ったのに持ってこなかった。 責任感が無さすぎる。安いツアーでもないのに昼食があるって書いてたからわざわざ食べずに行ったのに...それもわざわざ取りに行ったのに持ってくるとあの人は言いました。言い方もかなりキツめでした。楽しいはずのアクティビティーが嫌な思い出になった。 空腹のまま泳いで気分も悪いし楽しめませんでした。他のクルーの人達はとても親切で優しかったから本当に残念です。
I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience regarding lunch this time. Unfortunately, we were unable to provide lunch, and I regret that this has affected what should have been an enjoyable experience for you.
In response to this incident, we held an urgent meeting with the crew to prevent a recurrence. We will ensure that such issues do not happen again in the future. While I cannot guarantee that this will improve your mood, we have decided to refund the cost of lunch in hopes of making amends.
Once again, I apologize sincerely. I am truly sorry.

The crew were so friendly and helpful! We were impressed with their safety precautions, including all of the crew being certified lifeguards and were watching out for everyone the entire time we were in the water. The water was pristine and we saw so many varieties of fish and even saw an eel. The coral was beautiful, too.

It was also nice that the tour photos were uploaded to Facebook. The only disappointment was not being able to see any sea turtles. It seems that whether you can see them or not varies by day and between morning and afternoon.

I chose this tour because the meeting place was close to my hotel and there weren't many options available at the last minute, but it turned out to be a great decision. I had a wonderful experience.
When we arrived at the snorkeling point by boat, we encountered a pod of dolphins! We enjoyed watching the dolphins from the boat.
Once in the water, I swam surrounded by schools of colorful fish of various sizes. (The staff threw food from the boat, so many fish gathered around.) After that, the staff guided us by swimming to the turtle point. We were able to see three turtles that day. They occasionally came up to the surface for air, allowing us to see them up close, which was incredibly exciting!
After the snorkeling time ended, we returned to the boat and sailed out to sea with the sails up, moving quite fast. I was fine, but those who are sensitive to motion might want to be cautious.
The website mentioned bringing a "photo ID," so I brought my passport, but it wasn't required. I didn't read it carefully, but it seems it was needed if you wanted to purchase alcohol on the boat. I misunderstood and thought it was required for the tour participation, so I would appreciate it if the wording could be changed.
After getting out of the water, it can be chilly with the sea breeze, so it's better to have a long-sleeved cover-up or a large towel. Also, there are no staff members who speak Japanese. They explain the precautions before entering the water, so having good listening skills would be helpful. (Since they use gestures, you might manage if you can catch some key words.)
集合場所が宿泊ホテルに近かったのと、間際の予約で他にあまり無かったので選びましたが、結果的に大正解でした。とても素晴らしい体験が出来ました。
ボートでスノーケリングポイントに着いた頃合いで、イルカの群れに遭遇!
ボートの上からしばしイルカ見物。
海に入り、大小色とりどりの魚の群れに囲まれながら遊泳。
(スタッフがボートから餌を投げるので沢山集まってきます)
その後、ホヌポイントまでスタッフが泳いで誘導してくれました。
この日は3匹のホヌに会えました。時おり水面まで息をしに上がってくるので本当に真横にホヌを見ることが出来、大感激!
スノーケリングタイムが終わった後は、ボートに戻り、沖合まで帆を上げてかなり飛ばしていきます。私は大丈夫でしたが、揺れに弱い人は要注意です。
WEBには持ち物に『写真付きのID』と書かれていたのでわざわざパスポートを持っていきましたが、提示は求められませんでした。よく読まなかったのがいけないですが、ボート上でお酒を購入したいときに必要ということだったようです。ツアー参加の際に掲示を求められると勘違いしてしまいましたので、書き方を変えていただけると嬉しいです。
水から上がった後海風に吹かれて寒いので、長袖の羽織るものか大き目のバスタオルは有った方が良いです。あと、日本語話すスタッフはいません。海に入る前に注意事項を説明されるのでヒヤリング力は有った方が良いです。(身振り手振りの説明なので単語が聞き取れればなんとかなるかも)

First, let me start by saying the entire crew was amazing! I went with my husband and teenage daughter. I got motion sick and the crew were so helpful and concerned. Gave me ginger drinks, ice for the back of my neck and were just so nice. The snorkeling was great. We saw tons of fish and my husband and daughter even saw a puffer fish. The crew had people in the water while everyone was snorkeling just making sure everyone was good. The lunch they provided was a hit and my husband and daughter said the shredded pork sandwich was the best pork they had in Maui. All three of us loved the cruise and would do it again in a heart beat. I would not go with anyone else after how amazing this experience was. And even though I was sick it was the genuine concern and care for everyone’s well being and the crew really cared that everyone was having a good time. Best group of people to go out on a boat with!!
