All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

I was expecting a blue sky and blue sea like in the images, but unfortunately, it rained, which was a bit disappointing. However, thanks to the staff who lifted the atmosphere, I decided to make the most of it and enjoy despite the rain.

For snorkeling, we went to a very deep part of the sea, but since I can't swim, I was scared and gave up, staying in the shallow area. Many staff members kindly encouraged me, so I decided to take the plunge and let them take me to the deep sea. Holding onto the float that the staff pulled, I felt safe enough to put my face in the water, and it was incredibly fun. I was able to see many different kinds of fish, including a large pufferfish and even four sea turtles. If I get the chance to come to Hawaii again, I would definitely like to participate again. Thank you very much, Jamie and all the other staff members. I'm glad I didn't give up at that time. Thank you!

イメージのような青い空　青い海を期待していたのですが生憎の雨で少しガッカリしていたんですが、スタッフの皆さんが雰囲気を盛り上げてくださったお陰で雨でも精一杯楽しもうと思いました。　シュノーケルは凄く深い海に行くのですが泳げない私は怖くて諦めて浅瀬にいたところ何人ものスタッフの皆さんが優しく声を掛けてくださったので、思い切って深い海に連れて行ってもらいました。スタッフさんが引っ張ってくれる浮き輪に掴まらせて貰って顔を海につけても安心感があり凄く楽しかったです。たくさんの大小様々な種類の魚、大きなフグや海亀は4匹も見ることが出来ました。次回ハワイに来ることが出来たら是非また参加したいです。ジェイミーさん　その他のスタッフの方々大変お世話になりました。あの時諦めないで良かった　ありがとうございました

This snorkel adventure does not disappoint! Amazing crew. This was our second trip with Trilogy & yahoo - so fun. Captain Michael, Zack, Q, & I can’t remember the young lady’s name but they were just phenomenal. Will for sure book another adventure with them & hope for Captain Michael again.

Great experience! This was a fun time on a very nice, new catamaran with a crew was friendly, knowledgeable and informative. Tho food was great and the snorkelling at the stop by Captain Cooks monument was awesome!

It was a great experience. The staff are friendly and helpful. The music was great.

I came to Hawaii for my honeymoon. When you think of Hawaii, you naturally want to visit the beautiful ocean, so I was looking forward to the sandbar, and the water there was even more beautiful than I imagined! The photos taken at the sandbar with the mountains in the background turn out to be stunning.

There was a Japanese staff member on the boat who was able to answer any questions I had, which made me feel very comfortable participating in the tour!

ハネムーンでハワイ旅行に来ました。
ハワイと言ったらやはり綺麗な海に行きたかったので、サンドバー期待して行ったのですが、サンドバーの海が想像以上に綺麗で感動しました！
山々の背景にサンドバーで撮る写真はかなり映える写真が撮れます。

船には日本人のスタッフの人がいて、わからないことは教えてくれたので、すごく安心してツアー参加出来ました！

We headed to a sandbar located about a 10-minute boat ride from He'eia Kea Boat Harbor, which is about a 40-minute bus ride from the Waikiki Beach area.

Due to the tides, the sandbar was not fully exposed during my visit, but we were able to experience shallow waters up to our knees.

On the way from the boat harbor to the sandbar, we were able to see sea turtles, and during snorkeling, we got to see them up close.

There were various activities available, such as snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, and floating rings, so there was never a dull moment.

Additionally, each person was provided with a rice ball, snacks, and warm drinks on the boat, which was helpful when we got cold.

The staff's English was very easy to understand, so anyone with a little English knowledge could grasp almost everything. They also provided explanations in Japanese after the English ones, so even those who don't speak English at all can participate with confidence.

The bus ride to and from the location can be quite cold due to the air conditioning, so having a light jacket would be convenient.

I had a great time.

ワイキキビーチ地区からバスで40分ほど移動したHe'eia Kea Boat Harborからボートでさらに10分ほどのところにあるサンドバーに向かいます。

潮の満ち引きの関係で私の体験した時はサンドバーが露出するほど潮は引きませんでしたが、膝下ほどの浅瀬を体験出来ます。

ボートハーバーから、サンドバーまで移動する途中にウミガメを見ることができ、その後のシュノーケリングでも手が届くくらい近くでウミガメを見ることが出来ました。

シュノーケリング、サップ、浮き輪など色々遊ぶ物もあったので飽きることはないです。

また、船上で1人1つおにぎりと、スナックや温かい飲み物が提供されるので体が冷えた時は助かりました。

スタッフの方の英語もすごく聞き取りやすいので、少し英語ができる人ならほぼ全て理解出来ますが、英語の説明の後に日本語の説明もして頂けたので全く英語が出来ないひとでも安心して参加出来るかと思います。

行き帰りのバスはクーラーが寒いので、羽織ものはあると便利だと思います。

楽しかったです。

It's a wonderful tour with a beautiful sea and filming locations used in Jurassic Park in the background. The snorkeling is done in a great spot, so you can see plenty of fish and I saw several turtles as well. It was an option tour where I could spend time in a homey atmosphere, and I have no complaints.

綺麗な海だしバックにジュラシックパークで使われた撮影場所もある素晴らしいツアー。
シュノーケリングも良い具合の場所でやるから魚も沢山見れるし亀も何匹も見ました。
アットホームにツアーを過ごせて文句なしなオプションツアーでした。

Such an amazing morning! The crew were very friendly and knowledgable. Everything was provided and very easy, they were willing to assist and answer questions and offer advice. I have some incredible videos and memories.

Whole crew are amazing and show such excellent hospitality and service! Always make us feel so comfortable with our whole experience! Music sets the vibes and when you get to the sandbar it’s breathtaking! Even on an overcast day like we had it’s so worth it! so I can say rain or shine you have you have to experience it. Shyla was amazing and runs a great group, it’s always a must when we visit Oahu. Thank you again for the amazing hospitality and we can’t wait to come back. Mahalo!!!

The instructors were extremely helpful and knowledgeable! Saw many turtles and fishes and got great pictures! The mai tais were good and all around had a first great experience! Highly recommend this for beginners!

The snorkeling location at Molokini was great, and I was able to see many different types of fish. The tour staff were very accommodating, and I was satisfied with the meals. There was a mistake with the parking area, and my rental car was towed, but thanks to the kindness and quick thinking of the Japanese staff member, Takako, I was able to retrieve my rental car safely. It was an expensive lesson, but it taught me the importance of asking questions on the spot. I am truly grateful to Takako for making my experience in Maui unforgettable. I believe many Japanese tourists will be visiting in the future, so I would appreciate efforts to handle any issues that may arise on-site.

これから日本人観光客も大勢来られると思うので現地でのトラブル対応に努力いただければありがたいです。

We visited Hawaii for our honeymoon. I wanted to see dolphins in the dream destination of Hawaii, so I joined this tour. Although it was an early start, we were lucky enough to encounter not only dolphins but also whales on this tour. I was also thrilled to see sea turtles. The staff were very kind, and there were Japanese-speaking staff members, which made me feel at ease. During snorkeling, I was able to relax and see colorful fish in the beautiful sea. The slide from the boat was also fun. On the way back, we got to see a hula dance, which became a wonderful memory. For those worried about seasickness, I recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance. If you forget, you can also purchase a motion sickness band that is said to be effective on the bus ride there.

新婚旅行で訪れたハワイ。憧れのハワイでイルカも見たいと思い、こちらのツアーに参加しました。
早起きでしたが参加したこのツアーではイルカだけでなく運良くクジラにも出会えることができました。また、ホヌも見れることができとても興奮しました。スタッフの方々もとても親切で日本語対応スタッフもいるので安心して参加できました。シュノーケルでは綺麗な海でゆったりと色鮮やかな魚たちも見ることができました。また、船からの滑り台も楽しかったです。帰りの船上ではフラダンスも見ることができ最高の思い出になりました。船酔いが心配な方はあらかじめ酔い止めを飲んでいくことをお勧めします。忘れた場合は、行きのバスの中で、
酔い止めに効くと言われる酔い止めバンドを購入することもできます。

This trip was great. Outstanding crew constantly catering to our every need and ensuring the best experience. Captain Trevor, first mate Diego and Joe and everyone else were so accommodating to all. Would love to come back and visit the mantas again!

There were two guides, one of whom was a Japanese woman. There were about ten participants, with two Americans and the rest being Japanese. The guides were kind and attentive, allowing us to enjoy the tour with peace of mind. When I initially struggled with breathing through my mouth, the male guide quickly came to help me. The female guide also held my hand and swam with me.

It was drizzling on the day of the tour, and the water level was quite low, so I was glad I borrowed a wetsuit. I was able to see a lot of fish as well.

ガイドの方は2人で、1人は日本人女性の方でした。参加者は10人ぐらいでアメリカ人2人以外はは日本人でした。ガイドの方は親切丁寧に接してくださり、安心してツアーを楽しむ事ができました。わたしが最初口呼吸がうまくできない時、男性ガイドの方がすぐに助けに来てくれました。女性ガイドの方も手を握って一緒に泳いでくださいました。
当日は小雨で水位もかなり低く、ウェットスーツを借りておいてよかったです。魚もたくさん見ることができました。

Loved our day on Trilogy. Crew was really terrific.
Everything well run, food was great. Overall wonderful experience. We will be sure to sail with them again

The instructors were a veteran woman and an American who spoke Japanese well. They were very knowledgeable about Hanauma Bay and took safety into consideration, allowing us to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind. I heard that they resumed tours in February, but due to environmental protection measures, it can be difficult to make reservations, so I recommend booking early.

インストラクターは、ベテランの女性と日本語が上手なアメリカ人の2人で、ハナウマベイを熟知されていて安全に配慮してくださり、安心して、たっぷりとシュノーケルを楽しめました。2月から本格的にツアーを再開したとのことでしたが、環境保護などから予約が取りにくいツアーなので、早めの予約をお勧めします。

Dan and Chieko were great hosts and guides. Dan picked us up and we talked with him quite a bit. He was kind, knowledgeable, and down-to-earth. Chieko was energetic, caring, and knowledgeable. The whole process (pick up and drop off, fitting for flippers, trolley down to the beach, putting on wet suits (additional option), instructions on technique and guidelines, storage of valuables, etc) was smooth from start to finish. This was my partner’s first experience snorkeling; she felt safe and at ease with Dan’s and Chieko’s instructions and guidance. We spent some time in the shallows and then went to deeper parts of the bay. We saw lots of fish! Hanauma Bay is a very special place. Overall, this was an amazing experience that my partner and I highly recommend!!!

Nick with snorkeling gave us easy simple lessons to feel comfortable in the water. showed us around. and took wonderful pics ! had an amazing experience!

One of the top 5 experiences of my life! A must do on the big island. Captains Trevor and Diego were helpful. Storm was coming in so water was choppy. Climbing out of the water was the hardest part.

We had a big group of us go on this tour. It was seamless from the start. Check in was super easy, the boat ride was quick and so much fun!! The band was incredible!! And the donuts were yummy. When we got to the sandbar instructions were given and we got to go explore and have fun! My daughter actually got stung by a jellyfish while snorkelling and it could have ruined our excursion but the staff were excellent. Got her help immediately and were super attentive and caring to make sure she was doing ok. They even shared their own experiences with jellyfish. She got out in the water and had more fun before we had to head back to shore. Thank you for everything!! If we come back to Oahu we would definitely do another tour!!

The staff included Japanese speakers, so they provided explanations not only in English but also in Japanese, which made me feel comfortable participating. I was able to see whales and pilot whales, and during snorkeling, I encountered a variety of colorful fish. I had a very enjoyable time, and it was a great experience.

日本人スタッフの方がいるので
英語だけではなく日本語での説明をしてくださり
安心して参加出来ました。
鯨やゴンドウイルカも見ることが出来たし
シュノーケリングでは色とりどりな魚に
出会えました。
とても楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来て
良い経験になりました。

Until we arrived at the site, we were guided in Japanese, and we were able to enjoy snorkeling at Hanauma Bay! The water was so clear that we could see the fish beautifully, and it was incredibly fun!
It seems that boats are prohibited at Hanauma Bay, so since you enter from the beach, I think wearing a wetsuit is essential to avoid injury while swimming over the coral reefs!
I had a great time! Thank you very much!

現地に着くまでは、日本語でガイドいただきながら、ハナウマ湾ではシュノーケリングを楽しむことができました！！透明度が高いので魚が綺麗に見えて非常に楽しかったです！
ハナウマ湾は船が禁止らしくビーチから入るため、サンゴ礁の真上を泳いだ際に怪我しないようにウェットスーツは必須かと思います！
とても楽しかったです！ありがとうございました！！

This was such a great adventure! The crew was super nice, friendly, knowledgeable and gave us all the important information ahead of time. I am glad we rented wetsuits (the long sleeve, short legs version - $10), because the amount of time we stay in the water and specially at sunset, made it for a very cold attraction.
Nonetheless, we saw at least 4 manta rays, they were swimming around and under us for the entire time and it was such an incredible experience!!!
When we got back to the boat, we were treated to some really yummy hot chocolate.
Tamae, one of our guides, also had some pictures and videos that she shared with us!!

Really great captain and naturalist staff. The boat ride was enjoyable and we saw several whales. The snorkeling was beautiful. They have staff on surf boards setting up a safety perimeter. We really enjoyed this trip! We would definitely book again if we return to Maui.

The trip was so much fun! The crew was amazing and there were so many things to do. I wasn’t going to snorkel but Captain Robin encouraged me, personally took me out to make sure I felt safe and comfortable and showed me multiple turtles! It was the most amazing experience! Thank you for an amazing time!

Even though we had some overcast we had a great time because of the amazing crew we had. The women were fun and knowledgeable. They guided you through every step amd were there to assist. We certainly will plan to go again.

Very good experience. Good food, music and activities. Overall fantastic experience. Highly recommend for families, safe and fun

Crew was fantastic! So friendly and made our day so much fun.

It seems that sandbars appear depending on the season or time of day. When we went in late March during the day, it was just a regular shallow sea. There was live music on the cruise, which made us feel like we were in America! The activities were also fun. It seems essential to bring a jacket or a change of clothes, as it was quite cold.

サンドバーは時期？か時間帯により砂浜が現れるようです。
私たちが行った3月下旬の昼は普通に浅い海でした。
クルーズないで生演奏がありアメリカを感じられます！
アクティビティも楽しかったです。
上着や着替えは必須に思えます。
結構寒かったです。

Thank you for a great afternoon. My family enjoyed volleyball, and snorkeling. The lunch was great and the entertainment was too.
