Kauai Na Pali Coast Snorkeling Tour & Sea Cave Adventure by Makana Charters

Loved the boat tour !

Reviewed by: Kavya

Tony and Cam were very friendly and humorous. They stopped at all the amazing places. We took the 8:30 AM tour and got to see dolphins, turtles, beautiful caves and multiple waterfalls. Snorkeling was fun and could see coral reef and many types of fishes. I would highly recommend Makana Charters to my friends and family.

Moana Catamaran Waikiki Daytime Diamond Head Sail & Marine Life Watch Cruise

Turtles and Dolphins

Reviewed by: Marleen

We had a really great time on board the Moana! We saw turtles and dolphins right at the beginning of the 3 hour cruise. We then continued, passing Waikiki and Diamond Head in the search for whales. These days are the last days of the whale migration we learned and so unfortunately we didn't spot any. However, the boot trip was still very very nice and nature has its own ways right so no disappointment from our site. The view on Oahu was incredible and the crew was super nice!

Reviewed by: Ron C

Feb 2020, Booked Online, Good directions and communication, easy free parking. Only about 12 on the boat due to covid restrictions. My family and two other families. Crew was awesome. Crew was talking and helping all the customers, taking pics of the groups and really taking care of the customers. Very attentive serving drinks, etc and helping spot whales and turtles. Great hospitality. We saw 10 or so Humpbacks , 2 very close, and a few turtles which were also very close. Views of Waikiki and Diamondhead were amazing. Had a great time.

I heard that you can see almost 100% of them, and I really did! However, dolphins are incredibly fast! Haha. It's obvious, but they are super quick, and I had a hard time taking pictures! So, I recommend using a GoPro or something to record videos and then cutting clips from those!

Royal Hawaiian Catamaran Private Charter - Waikiki Sunset Sailing Cruise

*5 Star Amazing Sailing Experience!*

Reviewed by: Heather

I cannot recommend the Royal Hawaiian Catamaran enough! We chose the 2 hour sunset cruise and it was phenomenal! Captain Shane and his crew made our experience so special. My group of 6 felt very safe, the crew wore masks, and they asked us before sailing what we'd like to do. We were able to snorkel with the gear they provided, saw a lot of fish and a couple turtles, and also had the best view of the sunset. We played our own music, they poured us drinks that we brought on board, and the Mediterranean spread was perfect for snacking. Book this catamaran, you will not regret it!!

Even beginners can enjoy it. 初心者でも楽しめます

Reviewed by: aaz

We participated as a mother-daughter duo with no snorkeling experience. My mother is in her 60s. Initially, we joined with the mindset that just seeing dolphins from the boat would be enough, but once we set off, we were encouraged by our guide to go into the water. My mother, who can hardly swim, used a float, but the guide skillfully led us, and she was incredibly moved to see the dolphins from the best spot. I was impressed by the professionalism of the guide. Not only was the encounter rate with dolphins high, but the guide also kept track of the participants' names and how much they were enjoying themselves, even while wearing snorkeling gear. This was amidst many other tours. It was truly amazing. Although it was more active than other tours, the love for dolphins from our guide shone through. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who loves dolphins.

シュノーケリング経験のない母娘で参加しました。母は60代です。
当初は船の上からイルカを観れるだけでもという気持ちで参加しましたが、いざ出発するとガイドの方の勢いに後押しされ海の中へ。ろくに泳げない母は浮を借りながらですが、ガイドさんがしっかりと誘導してくれたので一番の特等席でイルカを観られたと大変感動していました。ガイドさんのプロの仕事はこういうものか。と感銘を受けました。イルカとの遭遇率のみならず、シュノーケリングを着けた上からでもツアー参加者の名前と楽しめているかをしっかりと把握してくれます。他ツアーが沢山入り混じる中でです。本当に凄い。他のツアーよりもアクティブでしたが、イルカを愛するガイドさんの愛が伝わってきました。イルカ好きには何度でもおすすめ出来ます。

2-Hour Kaanapali Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Open Bar & Appetizers - Sea Maui

Get your Feet Wet and See the Sunset! (...and maybe get engaged)

Reviewed by: Emily Feagin

The boat crew was amazing. You will take your shoes off prior to entering the boat and the crew assists with the facilitation of passengers onto the vessel. The main challenge is timing the waves with getting passengers on board. The crew did a great job with this and ensured everyone stayed dry (for the most part!) Once on the boat there are several different seating options: Bean bag chairs, bench seating down by the bar area, and seating on the front of the vessel. I would recommend sitting in the bean bags as they are comfortable and provide a great view (just be careful with your phone as there are slits it could possibly fall through into the ocean.)

Dinner was served on the boat and it was excellent. The brussel sprouts and chicken bites were delicious! Drinks were also served and the crew did a great job with serving everyone in a timely and frequent manner. The trip was extra special for me as my wonderful fiance (then boyfriend) proposed to me as the sun set over the mountains. My friends worked with the crew members to make the moment extra special as they deliberately turned the boat for us to see the sunset in our engagement pictures. During/after the proposal they provided us with a champagne shower and the rest of the bottle of champagne! Truly a moment we will never forget.

A++ experience!

I had very little experience with boarding a ship, but there were staff members who spoke Japanese, and the other staff were also kind, which made me feel very at ease. There was a wide variety of alcoholic beverages and soft drinks, which was enjoyable. Although the chances of seeing a whale were low, they searched diligently, and I was able to see its tail. I also got to see dolphins up close for a long time, which I didn't think would be possible. It was a very enjoyable plan.

6名限定!ハワイ島 野生のイルカウォッチング+ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー<午前/英語ガイド/軽食付>

I was able to spend a truly fulfilling time. 本当に充実した時間を過ごすことができました

Reviewed by: よよいの

In mid-February, I participated in this activity, fulfilling my long-time dream of swimming with wild dolphins. It was truly an amazing experience. The captain, a woman named Bambi, was very knowledgeable about the Hawaiian sea and the ecology of dolphins and whales. She provided excellent guidance on where to spot dolphins, when to jump into the water, and her hospitality on the boat was top-notch. I also appreciated that this activity had a small group size, which made it even better.

<Recommended Points>
1. All conversations with the captain on the boat are in English, but they have a Japanese desk available, so if anything comes up, you can communicate in Japanese. (There were times when I needed to contact them due to scheduling issues, and I was grateful for their assistance in Japanese.)
2. The small group size.
3. There are noodles (floating pool toys), so even if you're not confident in your swimming ability, you can feel secure.
4. They provide free rentals of masks, snorkels, fins, and wetsuits.

<Content of the Experience>
After gathering, we quickly boarded the boat and headed to the dolphin spotting point. Along the way, we received instructions on how to wait when dolphins are spotted and how to swim. When we finally saw dolphins, we didn’t jump in immediately; instead, we observed the dolphins and waited for the chance to get close. Sometimes, other tour boats would pass by, causing the dolphins to speed up or swim away, making it difficult to jump in. However, we patiently waited for the captain's instructions from the boat, and when we got the go-ahead, we jumped into the sea! After that, we enjoyed swimming alongside the dolphins. Luckily, we got to swim with dolphins early on, so we spent the remaining time searching for whales, snorkeling, and being guided along the coastline on our way back to the dock. (We were also treated to tropical fruits on the boat!)

The activity lasted about four hours, and I had more than enough experience; I was very satisfied.

<Personal Recommended Items to Bring>
1. Although the boat has a roof, it can be quite sunny, and it can get cold while moving, so I recommend bringing a light jacket.
2. I highly recommend bringing a “familiar” waterproof camera. Dolphins swim quickly, so if you hesitate, you might miss the shot. (Smartphone cameras can be risky to drop, and they may take time to start up or be difficult to see the screen.) Additionally, it’s a good idea to attach a floating accessory to your waterproof camera in case it slips from your hand.

<Cautions>
1. Dolphins are wild, so there’s a possibility you may not see them depending on the day. Let’s hope to see them!
2. You cannot touch the dolphins (to prevent them from getting sick). The dolphins will not come close to play; instead, you will swim alongside them. (Generally, you will need to use the noodles to swim. It’s best to inquire directly if you can dive.)
3. Activities other than dolphin swimming (like whale watching and snorkeling) may vary in duration depending on the time spent on dolphin swimming. (In any case, dolphins tend to disappear around 9:30 AM to sleep.)
4. Although it’s not part of Japanese culture, if you are satisfied with the activity, consider giving a tip.

<Comment>
I’ve explained a lot, but it was truly a fulfilling time, and I wanted to express my gratitude to Kona Ocean Experience for providing this experience. I hope they continue this activity for a long time. If you’re unsure which similar tour to choose from, I highly recommend participating in this one!

2月中旬にこのアクティビティに参加し、長年の夢であった野生のイルカと一緒に泳ぐ夢がかない、本当に素晴らしい体験をすることができました。
船長は女性のBambiさんは、ハワイの海とイルカやクジラの生態を熟知しておられる方で
イルカが見られるポイント、海へ飛び込むタイミングの指示、船上でのおもてなしが最高でした。本アクティビティは少人数制なのでそれも良かったと思います。

<おすすめポイント>
① 船上での船長との会話はすべて英語となりますが、日本語専用のデスクを設けておられるので何かあったときには日本語でやり取りしてもらえます。(スケジュールの関係で連絡をしないといけないことがありましたが、日本語でご対応いただき助かりました)
② 少人数制であること。
③ ヌードル(棒状の浮き輪)があるので、多少泳ぎに自身がなくても安心。
④ マスク、シュノーケル、フィン、ウェットスーツを無料で貸し出ししてもらえます。

<参加したときの内容>
集合後、早速船に乗りイルカが見えるポイントへ。道中にはイルカが見えた時の待機のしかた、泳ぎ方などのレクチャーがあります。
実際にイルカが見えたときには、すぐに飛び込まずイルカの様子を伺い、私たちとイルカが近づけるチャンスを待ちました。その際、他のツアーの船などが往来し、イルカの速度があがったり逃げてしまったりで なかなか飛び込むことができない場合がありますが、船上から船長の指示をじっと待ち、GOサインがでたらいざ海へ!!そのあとはイルカに近づいて並走を楽しみました。
運よく早々にイルカと泳ぐことを楽しめたので、残りの時間でクジラ探しやシュノーケリング、船着き場へ戻る途中で海岸沿いを船で案内してもらいました。(船上では南国フルーツのおもてなしもありました!)

アクティビティ開始から約4時間でしたが、十分すぎる体験をすることができ、大満足でした。

<個人的 おすすめ持参品>
① 船上は屋根はありますが、日差しがきつい場合と、船での移動中は寒いときがあるので軽く羽織れる服を持参すると良いと思います。
② “使い慣れた”防水カメラを持参することを激しくお勧めします。イルカの泳ぐ速度は早いので、もたついていると撮影できません。(スマホのカメラは落とす危険があることと、起動に時間がかかる場合や画面が見づらいもありますので、、) また、防水カメラへは手から離れてしまっても浮くアクセサリを付けていると良いと思います。

<注意点>
① イルカは野生なので、日にちによっては見ることができない可能性もあるそうです。会えることを祈りましょう。
② イルカへは触れません。(イルカが病気になってしまう可能性があるため) イルカ側から近寄ってきて一緒に遊んでくれるのではなく、泳いでいるところを一緒に泳がせてもらう感じでした。(基本、ヌードル必須で泳ぐことになると思います。潜水しても良いかどうかは直接お問合せいただいたほうが良いと思います。)
③ ドルフィンスイム以外(クジラ探しやシュノーケリング等)は、ドルフィンスイムにかける時間により、あったり短くなったりだと思います。(いずれにせよ、イルカは9時半ごろからは寝るために居なくなるそうです)
④  日本の文化には無いですが、アクティビティに満足されたらチップを渡しましょう。

<コメント>
長々と説明しましたが、本当に充実した時間だったので この経験をさせてくださったコナ・オーシャン・エクスペリエンスに感謝したく、
これからも長くこのアクティビティを続けてもらえればと思って書き込みさせてもらいました。似たようなツアーがたくさんあってどれにしようか迷っておられるかたは、是非参加してみてください!

  • 運よく、15頭くらいの群れに遭遇しました

  • こんなに近くを泳ぐことができました!

  • 自分が泳いでいる下をスッと追い抜いていきました

  • 余った時間でスノーケリングを楽しみました。

  • 海岸沿いのボートツアーも楽しかったです!

Reviewed by: mog

The tour guide was frank and easy to talk to.

There is no towel rental, so you need to bring your own. It was still cold in January, and moving on the boat while wet with the wind made it extremely cold.

The tour itself was very good, but I felt it was a bit of a waste that I couldn't stay in the water for a long time because of the cold.

Also, since the explanations are in English, I thought it might not be suitable for those who are snorkeling for the first time.

ツアーガイドさんがフランクで話しやすかったです。

タオルの貸し出しはないため、持っていく必要があります。1月中はまだ寒く、濡れた状態で船で移動して風が当たるのでものすごく寒かったです。

ツアー自体はとてもよかったのですが、寒くて水中に長時間いることができず少しもったいなかったなと思いました。

また英語での説明になるので、はじめてのシュノーケリングの方は適さないと思いました。

Thank you for leaving a comment, Mog.
Yes, even in Hawaii, January can be cold. I also feel the cold, so the chill in January can be tough.
Regarding the manta tour, one of our strengths is that you can see them very close to the harbor where the boats depart, so there's less time spent on the boat while wet. However, for the dolphin tour, we do move around to search for dolphins, and there is also some travel time for snorkeling in Kealakekua Bay, so you will be wet during that time. Thank you for sharing this helpful information for customers participating in January.
Please stay warm this winter.

Mog様、コメントを残していただき、ありがとうございます。
そうですね、いくらハワイと言え1月は寒いですよね。私も寒がりなので、1月の寒さは応えます。
マンタツアーに関しましては、弊社の強みの一つは、船が出入りするハーバーからすぐ近くで見られるので、濡れた状態で船に揺られる時間が少ないことですが、ドルフィンツアーに関しましては、イルカを探して移動しますし、またケアラケクア湾へのスノーケリングのため移動も少しあるので、その間濡れた状態になりますね。これから1月に参加されるお客様にとっては、知っておくと良い情報をこのように書いていただき、ありがとうございました。
この冬の間、どうぞ温かくしてお過ごしください。

This excursion was beyond what I expected! The boat ride was smooth and there was plenty of space for my friends and I to enjoy the ride! We had cute bean bag chairs to sit on which added to our excitement. The crew members showed great service and were happy to get to know us a little when the time was right and everyone on board had been helped. Very easy going and fun guys to hang out with! The crew even made our friends proposal extra special by turning the boat around at the perfect time so we could have the best pictures of the event- and were more than happy to celebrate by bringing out champagne! I also feel like I need to comment on the food- the Brussels were the best I’ve ever had- and being from the south, I’ve tried them many ways. If you’re going on this excursion, be prepared to have a great evening, get your toes wet, and enjoy the views. 10/10 for a great time and great company!

Encountered a whale! The beer was great too. 鯨に遭遇!ビールも最高

There was a pre-boarding explanation by the Japanese staff, and although it was an English tour, there were no inconveniences at all. We even encountered whales, and the beer on the comfortable boat was fantastic!

日本語スタッフによる乗船前説明もあり、英語ツアーですが、何の不便もありません。クジラにも遭遇でき、心地よい船上でのビールも最高でした!
