Whale Watching Sail in Waikiki on the Honu Lani with Optional Transportation Available [Dec–Mar]

FUN TIME!

Reviewed by: Stephanie M.

We went on the afternoon cruise on Valentine's Day 2016 that was suppose to leave at 3 p.m. We ended up leaving about 15 minutes late because we had to wait for a van coming from Waikiki with more riders and they were late. We did see whales about 2 miles off the Hilton Hawaiian Hotel. The crew was very friendly and we enjoyed the open bar. It was like a whale watching party on someone's private boat! We had so much fun, that we booked the 5:30 p.m. boat cruise that very same day! Again, the only disappointment was that the boat was suppose to depart at 5:30 p.m., but this time it did not depart until 6:15 p.m. (45 minutes later!) because again, we were waiting on a van that had gone to hotels in Waikiki to pick up more riders and they were late due to traffic. Our boat cruise was cut short by 45 minutes and we only stayed out on the ocean until 7 p.m. so we felt cheated out of ocean time. Again, the crew was friendly but when I pay to spend time on the ocean, I expect and want to spend the entire one and a half hours on the ocean. In the future, I would suggest to the boat company, not to wait for a late van of riders and penalize those who were on time. Or, make sure that your riders get their full time on the ocean by staying out longer if you depart late.

Beautiful Scenery

Reviewed by: Jwerner

Loved the scenery and the Sunset was amazing. The crew was very helpful.
The seas were pretty rough that day and the tour took a little longer than planned.
The snacks were good but we didn't realize that there would be a light dinner served too.
We were able to see lots of whales and even some Dolphins.

Great sunset

Reviewed by: Maribeth

We had a great time on the sunset cruise! It had of course had great views, the captain stopped a couple times to let us watch some whales playing! The staff, Ian, Jason and Colin were helpful and friendly; the waters were a little rough, so they really showed our concern for our safety and comfort. The drinks, appetizers and sandwiches were all very good, very fresh. I would highly recommend this excursion!

A dolphin was right in front of me...
So I had to avoid touching it.
(I was told in advance not to touch them since they are wild.)
When our guide, Daisuke, waved his hand, the dolphin responded by moving its fins slightly and sang with a cute voice.
I definitely want to participate again and absolutely recommend it.

Whale Watching Sail in Waikiki on the Honu Lani with Optional Transportation Available [Dec–Mar]

Nice people - no whales

Reviewed by: smdaniela

The crew were very pleasant and helpful, somewhat informative. Drinks were available to anyone who wanted them that early in the morning, and there were many who did. Unfortunately,only a few tails sighted. Boat/captain only went about 3 miles out, where every other boat had gone to whale watch - and no one had any luck. I'm guessing a combination of too many boats, too much noise, and the slight delay in migration everyone talked about b/c of el Nino.

Reviewed by: PINE

I was disappointed that I couldn't see any whales. The boat was quite rocky, and since the ride was long, I wouldn't recommend it for those who get motion sickness (I had hardly ever experienced seasickness, but I was completely affected this time). However, I did enjoy the scenery, so that was a positive aspect.

クジラが見れず残念だった。

The best memories. 最高の思い出

Reviewed by: maki

I participated with my 6-year-old son. Led by Daisuke, who loves dolphins, we jumped into the water to see where the dolphins were swimming. When we looked into the surface, we were able to see a pod of wild dolphins swimming by. Another female staff member stayed with my son, and it seemed like he was able to see them well.

At first, I was nervous and my body was tense, and I was also worried about my son, so the dolphins swam by in no time. However, as I gradually got used to it, I was able to relax and enjoy the experience. Daisuke initially told me, "Please enjoy yourself, Mom," which helped ease my worries about seasickness and whether I could snorkel in the ocean for the first time. I was able to trust them completely.

On the way back to the port, we even saw two whales, which was so moving! It became a precious experience for both my son and me. Thank you very much!

6歳の息子と参加しました。
イルカが好きすぎるというだいすけさん主導で、イルカの泳いでくるポイントへ飛び込み、水面をのぞくと、泳いでくる野生のイルカの群れを見られました。息子には、もう一人の女性スタッフが、ついていてくださり、息子もちゃんと見られたようでした。
はじめは、ドキドキして身体も硬く、息子のことも気になり、あっという間にイルカちゃんは泳いで行ってしまいましたが、だんだんと慣れてきたら、ゆったりと落ち着いてみることができました☆
だいすけさんが、はじめに「お母さんが楽しんでください」と言って下さり、船酔い等の体調面、海での初のシュノーケルができるのかなど不安もありましたが、安心してお任せすることができました。
そして港へかえる途中には、なんとくじらを2頭も見ることがで、感動!!
私にとっても息子にとっても貴重な体験になりました。

Rainbow watching instead of whale watching. クジラの代わりにレインボーウォッチング

Reviewed by: TKD

The season had just started, and due to bad weather with rain, we unfortunately didn't encounter any whales. However, a big rainbow appeared over the hotels at Waikiki Beach...! In a different way, we enjoyed the cruise.

Before disembarking, they gave us a "one more boarding ticket for this season." If you're really hoping to see whales, consider scheduling your trip early in your stay to allow for a re-challenge. (It seems that reboarding reservations can only be made by phone and are available in English.)

This time, the weather was rough, and the boat rocked quite a bit... It was easier to stand and hold onto the railing to manage the swaying rather than sitting down. The crew was very attentive to those who felt unwell.

シーズンに入ったばかり&途中から雨という悪天候で、
肝心のクジラには出会えませんでしたが、
大きな虹がワイキキビーチのホテル群の上に・・・!
別の意味で、クルーズを楽しめました。

下船前に、「今シーズン中、もう一度乗船チケット」をくれました。
どうしてもクジラ・・・という場合は、滞在期間の早いうちにして、
再チャレンジできるスケジュールにしてみては?
(再乗船の予約は電話で、英語のみ対応のようです)

今回は天気が荒れ、船は結構揺れました・・・
座っているよりも、立って手すりにつかまり揺れに対応していた方がラクでした。
気分が悪くなった人には、クルーが丁寧に対応していましたよ。

Thank you, Aloha Kona Tours, for the best memories! 最高の思い出 アロハコナツアーズに感謝!

Reviewed by: こうが

Today, I participated in a dolphin tour. I believe there are many companies offering dolphin tours on the Big Island, but I heard that Mr. Nata was the first to start a dolphin tour there. Mr. Nata, Mr. Daisuke, and Ms. Chiho from Aloha Kona Tours provided an absolutely wonderful experience. For example, it seems that with other companies, you only get about three chances to go into the water, but the team at Aloha Kona Tours has a strong enthusiasm to show you the dolphins! They quickly spotted a pod of dolphins with the naked eye, got us into the water swiftly, and today we were able to enter the ocean five times. Each time, the dolphins came very close, and there were so many of them; it was an indescribable experience. My 6-year-old daughter was well taken care of, allowing us parents to focus on watching. It was so amazing that I understand why some people become repeat customers. Today, I was lucky to be with veteran guests, and after it was over, I really understood the desire to return. I am already eager to come back, and I plan to bring my friends' families with me next year. Next time, I would like to request not only dolphins but also manta rays and Mauna Kea with Aloha Kona Tours. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

本日イルカのツアーに参加しました。ハワイ島でイルカのツアーは何社もあると思いますが、縄田さんがハワイ島ではじめてイルカのツアーを始めたそうです。アロハコナツアーズの縄田さん、ダイスケさん、ちほさんは本当に素晴らしい体験をさせてくれました。例えば他社では3本位しか海におりるチャンスはないようですが、アロハコナツアーズの皆さんは見せたい!という熱意がとても強く、肉眼で素早くイルカの群を見つけ、素早く海に降り、今日は5回も海に入れてくれました。どの回もすごく近くにイルカが来て、群の数もとても多く、言葉にならない体験をしました。6歳の娘にもバッチリ付き添ってもらっていたので、私達親は自分が見ることに集中できました。本当にすばらしいのでリピーターになってしまう方もいるそうで、本日は運良くベテランのお客様とご一緒させて頂きました。終わった後、リピートしてしまう気持ちがよくわかりました。私も既にリピートする気まんまんなので、来年は友達家族も連れてまた来たいと思っています。次回はイルカだけでなく、マンタとマウナケアもアロハコナツアーズでお願いしたいです。良い思い出をありがとうございました!

Two tailfins and numerous whale blowouts

Given the early season we had low expectations on whale spotting, but we were at least looking forward to a great boat ride on the ocean. And we sure got that.
After about 20 minutes we spotted the first whale air blowout and there were many more. Finally two North Pacific Hump Back whales surfaced and dove down again, showing their tailfins. Great experience, great weather, great boat trip.

It was surprising. びっくりポンでした

Reviewed by: アントン蛇蝎

It was my first time whale watching, and it happened to be the first day of the season. Despite the light rain and high waves, I was starting to think it might not happen when a whale appeared. It was just a brief sighting, but I was lucky.

What surprised me even more was that all the staff and participants were foreigners. There were only two Japanese people, my wife and me. The foreign staff were chatting away before we set sail, but I couldn't understand a word.

Also, there was a couple with a 6-week-old baby and a 4-year-old child among the guests, and both of them were drinking champagne as soon as we set off. That’s something you wouldn't see in Japan. It was full of surprises!

人生初のホエールウォッチング、しかも今シーズン初日との事。
小雨降る中、波も高く、うーんだめかなって思ってたら、クジラ君現れました。

その他にびっくりしたのが、スタッフも参加者も全部外人。日本人は私と家内の2人のみ、スタッフの外人さんが出航前に色々喋ってるけど、ちんぷんかんぷん。全く分かんない。
あと、お客の中に生後6週間の赤ちゃんと4歳の子供を連れた夫婦もいましたが、彼ら2人とも出航と同時にシャンパン飲みっぱなし。日本じゃありえないね。

An emotional experience!!!! 感動体験!!!!

Reviewed by: Ocutie

Daisuke, who jokingly said, "I'm a dolphin otaku, so I know everything about dolphins!" was indeed telling the truth! We encountered a pod right after we set sail. He seemed to really understand the dolphins, pointing out where they were and when they would jump. It felt like a dream to swim with countless dolphins. In the end, we had such a fulfilling experience that we reluctantly had to wrap it up due to time constraints. Since they are wild dolphins, it might have been lucky to see so many, but I believe Daisuke's guiding skills played a significant role as well! Thank you very much.

「僕はイルカオタクだから~。イルカちゃんのことは何でもわかるよー♪」と冗談気に話していたダイスケさん。本当でした! 出港してからすぐに群れに遭遇。あそこにいるから、ここでジャンプするから、などなど、イルカの声を聞いては、本当に理解していた様でビックリ。数え切れないほどのイルカちゃん達と泳げて、何だか夢の中にいた様な…。最後は時間切れで渋々切り上げるほどの充実ぶりでした。野生のイルカなので、沢山会えるのはラッキーだったのかもしれませんが、ダイスケさんのガイド力も大きかったと思います! ありがとうございました。

Reviewed by: KAJIKAJI

As soon as we set off, we met a turtle, and within ten minutes, we dove at a point filled with dolphins both to the side and directly below us, which was quite an adrenaline rush. When I turned to the side, a mother and baby dolphin swam by slowly, as if saying, "Hello." Our guide, Dai-chan, advised us in the car that it’s good to be aware with our "third eye," which made the experience feel quite mystical with the dolphins. I would love to experience this again in Kona.

出発して、すぐに亀さんに会い、10分もしないうちにポイントでダイブ、横も、真下もいるかだらけで、かなりアドレナリンでました。ふと横を向いたら、親子のイルカさんが、「こんにちは」と言ってくれてるような視線でゆっくりと泳いでいきました。ガイドのダイちゃんが、第三の目で意識するといいですよと、迎えの車のなかでアドバイスをくれたので、なんだか、不思議な気分をイルカさんと過ごした感じです。また、コナで体験したいです。

I participated in a dolphin tour for the first time. The weather was great, and on the day we joined, we were able to see so many dolphins in just one dive. A mother and baby dolphin swam right in front of us, and they were so cute.

There were so many dolphins that I didn't know where to look; it was really busy (laughs). I was so moved by the number of dolphins, even more than I expected.

After the tour, we were given information about a beach where we could see sea turtles, and we were able to meet them safely, making up for last year's experience. Thank you very much!

We participated as a group of three, and all three of us said we want to join again. It was a very satisfying tour, and I'm really glad we participated. Thank you for your great support, Mr. Nawata and Mr. Daisuke. Thank you!

The encounter with the dolphin I had been dreaming of. And... 夢に見ていたイルカちゃんとの出会い。そして・・・

Reviewed by: h&m

Since I was a child, I dreamed of swimming with wild dolphins, and that dream came true on the Big Island of Hawaii!!!!

When Daisuke said, "I think you'll meet them soon today," I was so excited that I felt like jumping up right there. Since they are wild dolphins, I knew that whether I would actually see them was uncertain, but still, I was filled with the desire to meet them.

It had been a long time since I last snorkeled, and I was a bit anxious about whether I could breathe properly underwater. When I first entered the sea, I felt a bit flustered, but once I felt the reassurance of Daisuke being right beside me and providing solid support, all my fear and anxiety quickly disappeared.

And soon after we got into the water, we encountered dolphins!!! I was so excited to see the dolphins swimming slowly. I couldn't help but tense up. However, Daisuke told me that the most important thing was to completely relax, so from the second half of our time, I swam with the dolphins multiple times, feeling relaxed and at ease.

Of course, since they are wild dolphins, their swimming speed varies at different times. But I think that’s part of the fun of being with wild dolphins.

Anyway, the dolphins are just too cute. I could even hear the sound of dolphins "quee-quee" underwater. It was so moving!!!!

Above all, I was amazed by Daisuke's incredible ability to love and understand dolphins, catching their presence even when they were out of sight. When he said, "Get ready to enter the water," we were able to encounter dolphins just as he said. It felt like magic.

It seemed like Daisuke could really communicate with the dolphins, as they always came close to him and danced together. I realized that love truly gets conveyed. The dolphins looked like they were having fun swimming with Daisuke, and of course, he radiated happiness. And we participants felt it too. It was a space filled with love and happiness. I felt the healing power of the dolphins deeply, and Daisuke's aura naturally energized me. When we got out of the water, I felt warm-hearted thanks to the captain's kindness in helping us up from the boat. It was a tour filled with laughter and excitement.

In the end, we encountered a scene where the captain quickly spotted a boat that had engine trouble and called out to help with the rescue. Daisuke's words, "It's normal to help each other in times of trouble," reminded me of something so obvious yet so important. I am filled with gratitude that we were able to meet so many dolphins thanks to guides like Daisuke and the captain.

I want to refer to the method Daisuke taught me for surely realizing dreams and continue to pursue my dreams one by one. I hope to swim with the dolphins again someday under Daisuke's guidance.

Thank you so much, Daisuke, the captain, and all the participants who shared such a happy time with me!

I wholeheartedly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to swim with dolphins on the Big Island!

小さい頃から、野生のイルカと泳ぎたいと夢をみていたけど、
ハワイ島で、その夢が叶いました!!!!

ダイスケさんから、「今日はすぐに出会えると思うよ~」と言われた時、
もう嬉しくてその場で飛び上がりそうに。
野生のイルカだから、本当に会えるかはその時にしか分からないというのは
念頭に置きながらも、でもやっぱり、会いたい気持でいっぱい。

シュノーケリングは小さいころやった以来で、
海の中で呼吸ちゃんと出来るかなぁという不安で、最初海に入った時は
ちょっと焦り気味だったんだけど、ダイスケさんがそばにいてくれて、しっかり
フォローしてくれる安心感を感じてからは、怖さや不安なんてすぐに吹っ飛んでいました。

そして、海に出てから早々にイルカと遭遇!!!
ゆっくりと泳いでくれるイルカたちに、もう興奮MAX。
つい力がはいっちゃう。
でも、ダイスケさんに一番大切なことは、力を完全に抜くことだと言われたので、
後半からは、力を抜きリラックスした気持でイルカと何回も一緒に泳ぎました。

当然、野生のイルカ達なので、泳ぐスピードはその時々違う。
でも、だからこそ野生のイルカなんだなぁと感じれることも楽しさの1つな気がします。

とにかく、イルカちゃん可愛すぎる~。
ちゃんと海の中で、「キューキュー」と泣くイルカの声も聞こえます。
感動!!!!

そして、何よりイルカを愛し、イルカのことを知り尽くし、
姿が見えないのにイルカの存在をすぐにキャッチするダイスケさんの凄さに圧巻。
はい、海に入る準備して~と言われて入るとダイスケさんの言った通りに
イルカに遭遇することができる。もう魔法にかかったみたい。

ダイスケさん、本当にイルカと会話出来るみたいで、ダイスケさんのそばにはいつも
イルカが寄ってきて、一緒にダンス♪
愛する心は、ちゃんと伝わるんだなぁと実感しました。
イルカちゃんも、ダイスケさんと泳げて楽しそう♪ダイスケさんももちろん
HAPPYオーラ全開♪そして私たち参加者も。
愛とHAPPYしかない空間。
イルカの癒し力を心から感じ、ダイスケさんのオーラに自然とこっちまで元気になって、
海からあがる時、船上から手を伸ばしてあがるの手助けしてくれるキャプテンの優しさに
心が温かくなり、もうずっと笑いっぱなし、興奮しっぱなしのツアーでした。

最後、エンジントラブルで海の上で動けなくなった船をキャプテンがすかさず見つけて、
声を掛け、救助活動といった場面にも遭遇。
ダイスケさんの「困った時は助け合うのが普通だからね」といった言葉に、
当たり前の事なんだけど、再度その大切なことを再認識させられました。
こういうキャプテンや、ダイスケさんがガイドしてくれるツアーだから、
今回たくさんのイルカちゃんたちに出会えたんだろうなぁと感謝の気持でいっぱいです。

ダイスケさんが教えてくれた、夢を確実に叶えていく方法を参考に、
これからも1つ1つ夢を追っていきたいなぁと思います。
またいつか、ダイスケさんのガイドのもと、イルカちゃんたちと泳ぎたいな。

ダイスケさん、キャプテン、そして一緒にHAPPYな時間を共有させて頂いた参加者の方、
最高に幸せな時間をありがとうございました!!!!

ハワイ島でイルカと泳ぎたい方には、心からおすすめのツアーです☆









  • 優しいキャプテン

  • HAPPYオーラ全開のダイスケさん

  • 一緒に♪

  • 助け合い☆

Dolphin イルカ

Reviewed by: tanamai

The snorkeling point had quite high waves, so families with small children seemed to have a tough time. After about three attempts, we encountered a lot of dolphins! It was truly moving ♡ While in the water, I could even hear the dolphins' calls, and I was very satisfied!! For those who get seasick, I think it's essential to take motion sickness medication. Also, since we were snorkeling in a place where we couldn't touch the bottom, they provided floaties for those who couldn't swim. I wouldn't recommend it for those who feel anxious.

結構波が高いポイントでシュノーケルだったので、小さなお子さん連れていたご家族は大変そうでした。
3回くらいアタックして、沢山のイルカに出会えました!とっても感激♡
海の中にいるとイルカの鳴き声も聞こえて、大満足でした!!
船酔いする方は必ず酔い止め必要かと思います。
あと、足がつかない場所でシュノーケルするので泳げない方には浮き輪貸してくれてました。不安な方にはオススメしないです。

It's the best memory. 最高の思い出です

Reviewed by: Toshi

My wife and I participated together. Before joining, I heard great things about Daisuke, and I thought if I was going to swim with dolphins, it had to be with him. After the tour, we all agreed it was "the best!" and it became a wonderful memory.

Before departure, they mentioned it would take about 40 to 50 minutes to reach the dolphin encounter point, but luckily, we encountered a pod of dolphins just 5 minutes after setting off! We quickly dove in and had the best time with the dolphins. Throughout the experience, I was very satisfied to feel Daisuke's passion for dolphins and his energy to share their charm! When I go to Hawaii again, I will definitely participate again!

嫁と二人で参加したました。
参加前にダイスケさんの評判を知りイルカと泳ぐならダイスケさんだと思い、
申し込みましたがツアーが終わった後には口を揃えて「最高だった!」と言える程、
素敵な思い出になりました。

出発前には「イルカと出会えるポイントまで40~50分程度」と言っていましたが、ラッキーなことに出発して5分でイルカの群れに遭遇!早速潜ってイルカとの最高の時間を過ごすことができました。終始ダイスケさんのイルカに対する想いと、その魅力を伝えたいというエネルギーに触れられ大満足です!ハワイに行く際には、また参加します!

Many dolphins たくさんのイルカ

Reviewed by: jun

I was worried about whether I would encounter dolphins due to the bad weather the day before, but according to our guide Daisuke, we encountered around 200 dolphins. Every time I looked into the water, I saw dolphins. It became the best memory of my life!

It's a good idea to bring water when you board the boat.

前日が悪天候だったので、イルカに出会えるか心配でしたがガイドのダイスケさんがおっしゃるには200頭ぐらいのイルカに出会えたとのことでした。
本当に海の中を覗く度にイルカたちに出会えました。
人生で最高の思い出になりました!

ボートに乗り込む時には水を持っていった方がいいです。
