I previously visited during the summer with my coworkers, but my family had never been. After overcoming the long COVID pandemic, I finally brought my family along. It felt like fate that this was the last AM private cruise of 2023, and I was able to greet Captain Bruce before departure. Everyone picked up on even the little things from our prior communications and past experiences, which naturally sparked conversations.
Sitting near the bow of the speedboat can get you very wet. If you have things that you don't want to get wet, make sure to take precautions before and after boarding. I think you'll be dressed for swimming afterward, so feel free to enjoy getting splashed!
Veteran Alan interacted with us at just the right distance, ensuring that we had plenty of time to enjoy ourselves as a family. However, we weren't neglected; he discreetly prepared wetsuits for my family when they looked a bit chilly and promptly responded to our small requests. During snorkeling, he helped my younger daughter, who struggles with swimming, by pulling her on a Zayak (a bodyboard with a viewing window), allowing her to enjoy the underwater scenery.
On that day, the current was a bit strong and sand was swirling, but my family was thrilled to encounter a honu resting on the reef. He even took my younger daughter to see another honu that was in shallower water.
Since this is an activity in nature, the weather and sea conditions are a surprise on the day, but we had a different experience compared to summer. Our family was very satisfied with our stay. Thank you!
Additionally, you can change from a shared shuttle to self-arrival at the location. This allows you to freely plan your schedule after the cruise, not just limited to the Waikiki area, so you can continue to enjoy the tranquil Windward side or venture up to the North Shore. For those considering renting a car, I think it's a good option. The yacht harbor parking is first-come, first-served (be careful of no-parking areas), so it's best to arrive with some extra time.
以前職場の人たちと夏季に来ましたが、家族は未踏だったでした。長いコロナ禍を乗り越え、ようやっと家族を連れて来られました。
2023年最後のAMプライベートクルーズだったのも何かの縁、キャプテンブルースさんにも出航前にご挨拶ができました。事前のやりとりや以前のお世話になった話など、ちょっとしたことでも皆さん拾ってくださり、自然と会話も弾みます。
スピードボートは舳先近くに座るととても濡れます。濡れると困るものは、乗船前後にあらかじめ対策しましょう。そのあと海に入る格好になって参加されると思いますので、せっかくなのであとは思う存分飛沫を浴びてください笑。
大ベテランのアランさんは程よい距離感で接してくださり、大体の時間は家族だけで自由気ままに過ごせるように計らってくださいました。とはいえ放置されているのではなく、少し肌寒そうにしていた家族にさり気なくウェットスーツを用意してくださり、こちらのちょっとしたリクエストにもすぐに対応してくださいました。
シュノーケリング時は泳ぎの苦手な次女をザヤック(のぞき窓付きボディボード)に載せて曳いていただき、次女も海中を眺めることができました。
この日は潮の流れが少し強く砂が舞ってましたが、家族も無事リーフにたたずむホヌと出会うことができ、喜んでいました。浅いところにいた別のホヌを見せに次女を連れて行っても下さいました。
自然の中でのアクティビティなので天気、海の様子は当日のお楽しみですが、夏季とはまた違った体験ができました。家族一同が大満足の滞在になりました。ありがとうございました!
なお、乗合送迎から自力での現地集合に変更もできます。クルーズ後の予定をワイキキエリアに限らず自由に立てられるので、のどかなウインドワードを引き続き満喫したり、ノースに足を伸ばしたりできますね。レンタカー派の方はご検討されるとよいと思います。
ヨットハーバーの駐車場は早い者勝ち(駐車禁止エリアもあるので注意)のため、ある程度余裕をもってのご到着がベストです。
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We sincerely appreciate you sharing your experience of the private tour and how to enjoy the speedboat from the customer's perspective in this review.

It wasn't low tide, so the water level was about waist-high. I think it's a matter of luck when participating. I personally enjoyed the waist-high water more than the knee-high water. I recommend checking the low and high tide times in advance when making a reservation, but you can enjoy the beautiful sea regardless.
Also, since it was a lounge boat plan, we were able to use one SUP in a private setting, which was comfortable. It was a bit cold on the boat due to the strong wind, but they provided windbreakers with hoods for everyone, which was helpful.
I declined snorkeling due to the cold, but the captain was flexible and asked if we should drift a bit or stay here.
引き潮ではなかったため、腰高程度の潮でした。
これは参加時の運だと思います。
私は膝下の潮高より腰高の方が結果的に楽しかったです。
参加日の干潮、満潮を事前に把握した上での予約をお勧めしますが
どちらでも海は綺麗ですから楽しめますね。
また、ラウンジボート利用プランのためSUPを1台
貸切状態で利用できて快適でした。
風が強かったためボートの上の方が寒かったですが
フード付きウィンドウブレーカーを人数分用意してくれていて

シュノーケリングは寒さのため辞退したのですが
キャプテンは臨機応変に、少しボートを流す(走らせる)?
それとも ここに留まる? と聞いてくれました。
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. We apologize that the sea conditions were not perfect.

I participated in whale watching. I was able to spot a whale from a distance. I wanted to see it a bit closer, but the wind was pleasant, and I enjoyed the cruise. It was quite cold, so a long-sleeved jacket is essential. I hesitated about the pickup service being more expensive than meeting on-site, but I think if I had gone to the meeting point, there would have been so many boats that I wouldn't have known where to go. I'm glad I chose the pickup service, as it allowed me to participate with peace of mind.
ホエールウォッチングに参加しました。遠目にですが、クジラの姿も確認できました。もう少し近くで見たかったですが、風も気持ちよくてクルーズとして楽しめました。寒いくらいなので、長袖の上着は必須です。お迎えつきは現地集合よりも高くて迷いましたが、現地集合では、船が沢山あって、どこに行ったらいいか分からなかったと思います。安心して参加できたので、お迎えつきで良かったです。

I participated in the afternoon tour at the beginning of January. I was torn between other tours, but I decided on this one because it was smaller and I thought we might get a bit closer to the whales. The weather was clear, but I had seen reviews mentioning that some people didn’t see any whales, so I tried not to get my hopes up too much.
We set out about 15 minutes offshore on a small cruise ship and then waited in the surrounding area to see the whales. Since we weren’t too far from the island, where the town was visible, I wondered how it would go, but within about 10 minutes, there were cheers, and we caught a glimpse of a whale's head in the distance! Over the course of a little more than an hour, we saw the whale's head and tail flukes about 6-7 times, and at one point, a whale appeared right in front of us! There weren’t too many participants, so it wasn’t crowded, and we were able to enjoy it thoroughly. The staff was kind, and it was fun for everyone to search for the whales together!
Since it’s a small boat, I think it’s a good idea to take motion sickness medication as a precaution before participating. We drifted at sea for over an hour, and once you get seasick, it becomes difficult to enjoy watching the whales.
Also, depending on where you sit, there’s a possibility of getting splashed and wet, so I recommend wearing clothes that you don’t mind getting wet.
1月頭に午後帯で参加しました。
他のツアーもあり、迷いましたが、小さめでクジラにちょっとでも近づけるかも?と思ってこちらを申し込み。
天気は晴れでしたが、口コミで観れなかったという声もあったので、あまり期待しすぎずに。
小型のクルーズ船で15分ほど沖に出て、あとはその周辺でクジラが見えるのを待ちます。島の街並みが見えるほど島からもあまり離れていない場所だったので、どうかなと思いましたが、ものの10分ほどで、歓声が上がり、少し遠くにクジラの頭がちょこっと見れました!
それからも1時間ちょっとで6-7回はクジラの頭と尾ひれが見れ、すぐ目の前に現れたときも!参加人数もそこまで多くないので、人だかりで見えないということもなく、しっかり楽しめました。
スタッフの方も優しく、みんなでクジラを探すのも楽しかったです!
小型船ですので、酔い止めは予防も兼ねて飲んでから参加された方がいいと思います。1時間以上海を漂うので、一度酔ってしまうとクジラを見るどころではなくなってしまいます。
また、座る位置にもよりますが、水しぶきで服が濡れる可能性があるので、濡れても良い服装で参加されることをおすすめします。

The pickup time was 5 minutes past, and since no one had arrived, I contacted the emergency contact. They sent a different bus that had been stopped for a few minutes, which was scheduled for another tour. I made it to the cruise in plenty of time, so it wasn't a problem, but I wonder what would have happened if I hadn't reached out. The cruise itself was enjoyable, but unfortunately, we didn't see any whales.
ピックアップ時間に5分過ぎても来なかったので緊急連絡先に連絡したところ、数分前から止まっていた、違うツアー予定だったバスを回してくれました。
クルーズには十分間に合ったので問題無いのですが、連絡していなかったらどうなったのか、と思います。
クルーズ自体は楽しかったのですが、残念ながらホエールは見えませんでした。。

The private cruise for our family of ten was comfortable. First, we spotted a sea turtle in the bay! After that, when we went out to sea, a pod of dolphins came right around the boat, and we were able to see them up close. Then we headed out to search for whales and were able to see them as well, which was amazing.
While moving to the snorkeling spot, we enjoyed some snacks, making for a pleasant cruising experience. I thought it would have been good to bring a change of clothes since there was a restroom at the dock where we could change.
家族10人での貸し切りクルーズで快適でした。まずは入り江でウミガメを発見!その後海に出ると、イルカの群れが船の周りにまで来てくれて、たっぷり見ることができました。その後クジラを探しに沖まででて、クジラも見ることができ最高でした。
シュノーケリングのポイントまで移動する間にスナックもいただいて快適なクルージングでした。
船着き場にトイレがあり着替えもそこでできたようなので着替えを持っていけば良かったと思いました。

Our family of 6 was excited about snorkeling and seeing turtles. My children and husband had never been before, so this was a perfect day with a Nick taking the kids through the water. It was a personal tour of the beautiful reef. My elderly parents preferred staying on the boat, but that was excellent too as Sam filled us in on all the history about the island. I would highly recommend taking the two-hour private charter as the attention to detail and attention to guests is unmatched. They had drinks and water for us.
What are you waiting for? Book your private charter today and experience your ocean snorkel on a level above the rest.

On December 10th, I participated with my wife and our two sons, aged 0 and 3. At that time, the dolphin interaction at Sea Life Park was closed for renovations, and the other dolphin tours featured snorkeling with dolphins, which would be difficult with our young children, so we chose this option. I had heard that in December, if luck was on our side, we might see whales, so I was just hoping to see some dolphins or whales, but we were able to see dolphins, which made me very satisfied. Additionally, the boat played some lively music, and we could enjoy a few drinks, which added to the sense of adventure.
12月10日に0歳、3歳の息子と、妻と私の4人で参加しました。
当時はシーライフパークのイルカ触れ合いは改装で中止しており、他のイルカツアーはシュノーケリングでイルカと泳げるのがウリで、0,
3歳児を連れては難しいためこちらに参加しました。
12月は運が良ければクジラが見られるとのことだったので、イルカやクジラが見られればいいなという程度でしたが、無事イルカが見られてとても満足です。
また、船は結構イケイケな音楽がかかって、お酒が何杯か飲めるので、非日常感が味わえました。

We got lucky and they texted day of to see if we wanted to go out early for the sunset. Got message late and they still made it work. Only a minimal extra charge.

The boat itself was nice and the crew were lovely. Thankfully there was a place to hide slightly from the waves but it's also where the sea sickness gets really bad. My 14 son started to not feel well then a lady across from him got sick so that didn't help.
When they say it's an "adventure and you WILL get wet" they aren't lying. There were huge ups and downs and everyone was soaked.
The food was good and again the crew was lovely.

We brought 2 babies (18 months) with us, they also had a great time, could tell from their face :)
Attending a private tour allowed us to set out immediately for the dolphins when spotted them. Will def. choose to do private tour again next time.

About ten years ago, I visited Kauai and, since seeing the view from the Kalalau Lookout, I had always wanted to see the Na Pali Coast from a boat someday. This time, I decided to go to Hawaii and Kauai, and I signed up for this tour in Japan.
I think it was a great experience. Being able to see the beauty of the Na Pali Coast with my own eyes was invaluable. If possible, I would have liked to see a bit further along the coast. I also enjoyed the beautiful long beaches of Barking Sands Beach and Polihale State Park on the way to the Na Pali Coast. The day before, I drove to a bit beyond Barking Sands Beach to an unpaved area, but I thought it wouldn't be easy to reach Polihale.
I'm not good at snorkeling, so I didn't snorkel off the coast of Niihau, but I wish I had at least swum a little with fins. There were 33 participants that day, and I was the only Japanese person. Everyone else was snorkeling. The scenery of Niihau also left an impression on me.
The captain explained things well. I didn't understand much of the explanations in English, though. It was a tour where I truly felt the scale and greatness of nature at the Na Pali Coast. It left a strong impression on me.
Before going, I was concerned about driving there, but I am grateful that I was able to go safely. I realized once again that it's important to plan and prepare thoroughly in advance. I thank the captain and the two crew members.
10年くらい前にカイアウ島へ行ったことがあり、カララウ展望台からの景色を見たときから、ナ・パリ・コーストをいつか船上から是非見てみたいと思っていました。今回、思い切ってハワイ島、カウアイ島へ行くことにし、日本でこのツアーに参加申し込みをしていました。
実際に行って、大変良かったと思います。ナ・パリ・コーストの美しさを実際に自分の目で見れたことは何にも代えがたいです。できれば、コーストのもう少し先まで見てみたいと思いました。また、ナ・パリ・コーストへ行くまでのバーキングサンズビーチ、ポリハレ州立公園のきれいな長いビーチも良かったと思います。前日にバーキングサンズビーチの少し先あたりの舗装されていないところまで車で行きましたが、ポリハレまで行くのは容易でないと思っていました。
シュノーケリングは不得手で、ニイハウ島沖でのシュノーケリングはしませんでしたが、フィンをつけて少し泳ぐだけでもすればよかったと思っています。当日は33名の参加で、日本人は私だけでした。他の人は皆、シュノーケリングをしていました。ニイハウ島の景色も印象に残りました。
キャプテンもよく説明されていました。英語での説明はほとんどわかりませんでしたが。
ナ・パリ・コーストのスケールの大きさ、自然の偉大さを実感したツアーでした。とても印象に残ります。
行く前は現地での車の運転等、気にしていましたが、無事、行くことができて有難く思っています。事前の計画、準備をしっかりしておくことが大事だとあらためて思いました。キャプテン、2人のクルーに感謝します。

I was able to enjoy the tour with staff members and the captain who spoke Japanese, which made me feel at ease. Both of them were supportive throughout, helping a lot to ensure that my grandmother and my 0-year-old son could have fun.
Thanks to their gentle guidance, my grandmother, who has a chronic illness that makes it difficult for her to move her arms and legs, was able to enjoy activities like snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding. She said this experience was her best memory. We also encountered many turtles!
In the end, I forgot to give a tip! I'm thinking of ways to somehow give it to them... that's the only regret I have. I'm sorry for not giving it (cry).
I would love to use your services again! Thank you so much for everything!
日本語が話せるスタッフさんとキャプテンとご一緒することができ、安心してツアーを満喫することができました。
お二人とも終始サポーティブで、おばあちゃんや0歳の息子が楽しめるよう、たくさん手伝っていただきました。
特に、持病から手足が動かしづらいおばあちゃんにも優しくガイドしていただいたお陰様で、おばあちゃんもシュノーケリングやサップなどを楽しむことができました。
おばあちゃんは、この体験が一番の思い出だと言っていました。
カメさんにもたくさん遭遇することができました!
最後、チップをお渡しするのを忘れてしまいました!!
どうにかお渡しする方法がないか考えています、、これだけが心残りです、、。お渡しせずにすみませんでした(泣)
また利用させていただきたいです!
この度は本当にありがとうございました!
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Heavenly Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating in the tour with your family the other day.

We look forward to seeing your smiles again, along with the sea turtles.

The captain and crew were outstanding and made the trip very enjoyable. The food portions were on the small side. While the tour was advertised as open bar, it was very limited. It also only opened during the last two hours of the trip. I found that to be misleading.
I would definitely shop around a little more the next time.

We were looking for a shorter boat tour on Kauai because we can’t deal with being on a boat for too long, and I’m glad we found this one. It was a smooth and relaxing ride, lead by some friendly guys. They narrated the tour with information and trivia about the island. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset over the river and views of the mountains. I recommend this tour if you want a sunset boat tour that doesn’t take up all your time and avoids any risk of seasickness. Drinks included!

ご子息様はその後は何事もなく大丈夫でしたか? ツアーではお客様の安全が第一ですので、スタッフは常に様々な状況に対応できるよう心掛けております。
そのために、日本語も日々勉強中です。また次回ハワイにお越しの際はぜひ遊びにいらして下さい。その日をキャプテン一同心よりお待ちしております。
