I was able to see whales properly. ちゃんと鯨が見れました

Reviewed by: tantanのおや

I was able to see whales a few times, and the view from the ocean near Waikiki and Diamond Head was amazing. The top observation deck is great, but the lower level had fewer people and might have been even better.

鯨が何回か見れて、ワイキキやダイアモンドヘッドの海上からの眺めは最高でした。一番上の展望デッキもよいけれど、下の階も人が少なくよりよかったかも。

I was able to see the tail flap. テールフラップが見れました。

Reviewed by: トラン

The weather was nice, and I was glad to be able to see whales.

Even though it's always summer in Hawaii, the sea was cold in February. I wore warm clothing and a hood, so I managed to stay comfortable. It's necessary to prepare for the cold.

I quickly realized that whales were visible thanks to the announcements from the guide and captain.

The whales that appeared repeatedly flapped their tails, almost as if they were waving.

天気も良くて、クジラも見ることが出来て良かったです。

常夏のハワイとは言え、2月の海上は寒かったです。
防寒着を着てフードを被っていたので、どうにか快適に過ごすことが出来ました。
寒さ対策は必要です。

ガイドや船長のアナウンスでクジラが見えた事は直ぐに分かりました。

現れたクジラはテールフラップを何度も繰り返してくれて、まるで手を振っているようにも感じました。

At first, I was a bit discouraged when I saw the full down dive and it didn't come back after 10 minutes, but when another whale appeared and I witnessed it slapping its tail multiple times, I was so moved that tears came to my eyes! I'm really glad I participated.

初めはフルークダウンダイブする姿を見て、10分過ぎても出てこず、少し諦めていましたが、もう一頭のくじらが出現し、何度もテールスラップする姿を見たときは感動して涙が出て来ました!

冬季限定!ホエールウォッチングクルーズ <12~4月/英語ガイド/ラハイナ港発>

It was incredibly windy, but... すごい強風でしたが、、

Reviewed by: AXS

The sign for Lahaina Cruise Company doesn't appear until quite close to the meeting point, making it very hard to find. The ticket booth, which looks like a small hut, is usually closed and only opens a few minutes before the tour starts, at which point you can finally see the company name above the window. The procedure for receiving tickets after all participants sign in is not mentioned, which is unhelpful. However, the content of the tour is truly wonderful; with years of experience, the guide quickly spots whales beneath the surface and announces their direction through the microphone. We were able to see an incredible number of whales, including three blowing water and some that raised their upper bodies above the surface for a while. The guide also provides explanations about whale ecology and geography in between sightings, making it a very satisfying tour if you understand English.

ラハイナクルーズカンパニーという看板が結構直前にならないと出ないので、集合場所が非常に分かりにくいです。小屋のようなチケット販売ブースで普段は閉まっており、ツアースタートの何十分か前にオープンすると窓の上に同社名がはじめて確認できます。そのブースで参加者全員記名の上、チケットを受け取るという手順も書かれていないため不親切です。ツアーの中身は大変素晴らしく、長年の勘で水面下のクジラを素早く見つけては何時の方向だとマイクでアナウンスしてくれます。親子3頭の潮吹きや上半身をしばらく水面上に出す仕草など、本当に飽きるほどたくさんのクジラを見ることができました。クジラの生態や地理的な説明も合間を縫ってしてくれるので、英語が理解できればとても満足のいくツアーです。

2.5-Hour Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour, Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

Amazing sea life and sail

Reviewed by: Nancy

We took the 12 pm tour and boarded the catamaran from the beach. It only took 10 minutes to motor out to the snorkel site so it was not far from shore. There were 3-4 other boats with groups in the same area but there was plenty of space. We snorkeled until everyone had returned to the boat. Then the crew raised the sail and we had a great time coasting over the beautiful blue water, returning just inside of the 3 hour advertised time. Free snacks (chips, granola bars) were provided and you could buy drinks.

The crew were funny, friendly, and gave clear instructions. They kept watch over us during the snorkel. They regularly checked up on each guest after the snorkel to make sure everyone was comfortable. I wear glasses, and have a -5.25 prescription. They had prescription goggles on board that were -6.0 and I was able to see so clearly without my glasses! We saw a group of spinner dolphins on the way out, and I saw 5 different sea turtles below us during the snorkel. Several of them surfaced to breathe close by which was amazing! We saw a baby octopus, and lot of beautiful fish. The crew member in the water with us was good to caution people to give the turtles their space which was important.

Advice: you are barefoot to board the boat and on the boat, and you store your bag and shoes in cubby holes on board. It's good to bring a sun shirt so your back doesn't burn. You do get cold while snorkeling, but less so if you keep moving. Bring a towel and warm clothes to wear after if you tend to get cold. Hats will fly away easily so you need one with a draw string. They provide sunscreen if you forget your own. I took gravol before the trip, so I'm not sure if I needed it!

2.5-Hour Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour, Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

Wonderful, given the circumstances :)

Reviewed by: Kelsy

I booked this tour back around August of 2018 for a February 2019 trip. The original date was supposed to be Sunday morning on their first tour; however, they reached out to us on Saturday morning to notify us rescheduling might be required, as the island was going to be hit with an extremely severe storm over the weekend. Sure enough, Sunday morning came, and it was determined the waters were too unstable to enjoy a safe snorkeling experience. We were able to re-book to Monday afternoon, with the hopes the waters would mellow out and clear up by then. We arrived at the meeting spot, and right as we were about to disembark, we were notified the waters were still too dangerous. We were then given the option to either reschedule, or go sail with them for an hour or so, and get a refund on the snorkeling portion. Given we were leaving the following day, we were unfortunately unable to reschedule, and opted for the sailing. The captain, Ryan, and the rest of the crew were all wonderful, and made it a memorable experience. We were out sailing for around an hour and a half, and the views were breathtaking. They also provided everyone a few free drinks to help make up for the inconvenience, and the free snacks provided were much appreciated. While we never got to enjoy the snorkeling itself, I can vouch for the company and their customer service. Thank you for turning lemons to lemonade! Also, in February it was a bit chilly, so I would recommend a light jacket, and definitely sunglasses :)

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Sail Tour from Waikiki Beach - Cold Brew Coffee, Snacks & One Drink Included

Ok...but not the best experience.

Reviewed by: Hawaii visitor

The boat staff were very nice, but the weather before this activity wasn’t ideal, so that is part of why this review isn’t stellar. Also, the tour said that snorkelling equipment including fins was provided. Fins were not. They are actually very helpful for staying buyouant, especially in rougher waters like we had, so we were counting on them. The area was VERY busy, with many tour groups out there, so it wasn’t a very pleasant snorkelling experience - as you kept getting kicked in the face. I wouldn’t recommend this - find a nice spot and go on your own.

I could definitely see it, but it was far away and small. 確かに見えたけど遠くて小さくでした。

Reviewed by: zunzunkazun

When the weather is nice, you can clearly see Waikiki and Diamond Head, which feels great. At first, I couldn't see anything at all and almost gave up, but they finally appeared towards the end. However, while I did see whales, they were far away, so it wasn't as impressive as what you see in the brochures; it was more like, "Is that it?" Well, since it was a large ship, I didn't experience any seasickness, so I think that was a good thing.

天気が良いとワイキキやダイヤモンドベッドがクッキリと見えて気分が良いかと。最初は全然見えなくて諦めかけましたが、最後の方でやっと現れました。でも、確かにクジラは見えたけど遠かったので、パンフにあるような迫力ではなく、あれか、という感じです。まあ、大型船なので船酔いもなかったので、良かったかなと思います。

The tour content was just as described in the reviews (laughs), but there was a miracle...! ツアー内容は口コミ通り(笑)でしたが奇跡が・・・!

Reviewed by: みーみ

**[Experience Review]**
I participated at the end of January, having seen reviews beforehand, and thought, "If I get to see it, that would be lucky☆". As the reviews said, I couldn't see it, but since it was raining until the boat departed, there was a rainbow throughout the tour. Once we got out to sea, there wasn't a single cloud in the sky, and we were able to see a very magical rainbow (and it was a double rainbow! Plus, it was huge!) against the blue sky and vast ocean. Personally, since I got to see the rainbow, I found it quite enjoyable (laughs).

**[What I Liked About This Tour]**
The breakfast was more delicious than I expected. There were bread, white rice, scrambled eggs, sausages, and more... I thought it was very Japanese-friendly with ketchup and soy sauce available.

**[Advice for Future Participants]**
I recommend boarding the boat as soon as possible after getting off the bus. The window seats are popular, so everyone was vying for them. They take your picture before boarding and come around to sell it during the trip. I don't remember the exact amount, but it seemed to be around $20 to $30. By the way, we prepared a tip before disembarking, but there was no tip box, and we didn't have a chance to meet the staff or captain when getting off, so there was no timing to give it.

【実際に体験した感想】
1月末に参加しましたが先に口コミを見ており
「見れたらラッキー☆」くらいで参加しました。

Reviewed by: みーみ

**[Experience Review]**
I participated at the end of January, but the maximum temperature was 22 degrees, and it was very cold. Right after boarding, I was able to see sea turtles and whales, but we struggled to find dolphins for four hours while being rocked by the boat. Finally, we spotted dolphins, but by then, I was down due to the cold and seasickness. In the end, I didn't get to enter the water and just watched the dolphins from the boat.

**[What I Liked About This Tour]**
The staff's determination to find dolphins is impressive! True to their word, while other tours were turning back to the harbor due to the lack of sightings, they took us here and there in search of dolphins.

**[Advice for Future Participants]**
If you are prone to seasickness, please make sure to take anti-nausea medication! They cannot sell medication on board, but they do sell seasickness prevention wristbands for $20. However, even with the medication and the wristband, I still felt nauseous. I wore a wetsuit for an additional fee (was it $10 or $20?), but it was really cold. Being exposed to the north wind for four hours was truly freezing. After coming out of the water, a man from another group became so pale that it was concerning, and he couldn't stop shaking.

On the way there, the bus provided explanations and taught us about Hawaiian history, so it wasn't really a relaxing atmosphere (in both good and bad ways). However, on the way back, there was an announcement about photo sales as soon as we got on, but after that, the bus was quiet enough for a nice nap. I forgot the price of the photos, but payment was either on the bus or at the office, so if you don't have any business at the office, I recommend bringing a bit of cash. I ended up needing quite a bit of cash for the seasickness band, wetsuit, photo costs, and tips. I'm glad I had it on me (laughs). Regarding tips, there was an announcement before disembarking saying, "If you think it was good..." and my husband and I paid $20, but it seemed that many people either didn't tip or only tipped around $5.

【実際に体験した感想】
1月末に参加しましたが最高気温が22度でとても寒かったです。
乗船後すぐにウミガメやクジラは見れたのですが
肝心のイルカがなかなか見つからず船に揺られること4時間。
ようやくイルカが見つかりましたが、その頃には私は寒さと船酔いでダウン。
結局、私は海に入ることはなく船上でイルカウォッチングになりました。


【このツアーで気に入ったところ】
必ずイルカを見つけます!というスタッフさんの意志がすごいです。
その言葉通り、ほかのツアーはあまりの見つからなさに港へ引き返している中
イルカを見つけるためにあっちへ行きこっちへ行きしてくださいました。


【これから参加する人へのアドバイス】
船酔いする人は必ず!本当に必ず酔い止めの薬を飲んでください。
酔い止めの薬を販売することは出来ないので・・・と
船酔い防止のリストバンド(20ドル)を販売してくれますが
酔い止めの薬+リストバンドでも私は酔いました。
追加料金(10ドル?20ドル?)でウェットスーツを着てましたが
とにかく寒いです。4時間も北風に打たれると本当に寒いです。
海から上がったあとは別の組の男性が、こちらが心配になるくらい
血色がみるみる悪くなり震えが止まらなくなってました。

行きのバスは説明&ハワイの歴史を教えてくださっており
とても寝られる雰囲気ではありませんでしたが(いい意味でも悪い意味でも)
帰りのバスは乗ってすぐに写真販売の案内がありましたが
その後はゆっくり寝られるくらい車内が静かでした。
写真の値段を忘れてしまいましたが、バス車内でのお会計
もしくはオフィスにてお会計でしたのでオフィスに行く用事のない方は
少しばかりの現金を持ってくることをオススメします。
私は船酔いのバンド+ウェットスーツ+写真代+チップを支払ったので
結構な現金が必要になりました。持っててよかった~(笑)
チップに関しては下船前に「よかったと思ってくださる方は~」と
アナウンスがあり私と主人とで20ドル支払いましたが
意外とみなさん払われてないor5ドル程度の方が多かった印象です。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

During the first half of the cruise, I was able to see whales in the distance from the top deck, although they appeared small. While I was having lunch on the first floor, a whale suddenly appeared much closer. I've heard that whale watching can be a matter of luck, but I think we were definitely lucky that day. The scenery was breathtaking, and the buffet and cultural experiences were great as well.

クルーズ前半は最上階からクジラが遠くに小さくですが何度も見れました。そして一階でランチを食べていたら、突然クジラが大きく見えました。ホエールウォッチングは運不運があると聞きますが、その日はきっと運が良かったのだと思います。景色も最高の眺めでしたし、ビュッフェや文化体験も良かったです。

Since my accommodation was in Kailua-Kona, I had to make my way to the meeting point on foot. However, the public parking was difficult to find, which made me quite anxious, so it's necessary to check in advance.

However, the boat does rock quite a bit, so I think those who are prone to seasickness should prepare accordingly.

I saw a whale! クジラ見えました!

Reviewed by: しばしばわんこ

I arrived at the pickup location earlier than the scheduled time, but since it was just after 10 AM, it was extremely crowded. It was difficult to find our bus among the crowd. I think it would have been helpful if the staff had held a sign that said "Veltora," and it also took time to find the bus because it was parked a bit far away. Although I was told that the voucher was not needed, I was instructed to hand it to the staff member who came to pick us up.

The tour itself was very interesting, and I was thrilled when we spotted a whale. I was on the third deck of the boat, but the snacks were only available on the second deck, which was a hassle since I had to go down the stairs each time to get something. I think it would have been better if there were snack stations on both the upper and lower decks. I would have also liked some drinks other than water.

お迎え場所には時間より早く着いていたのですが、朝10時過ぎということもあり大変な混雑でした。その中から自分たちの乗るバスを見つけるというのは難しかったです。担当者がベルトラと書いた看板でも持っていてくれたら良かったと思いますし少し離れたところにバスが停まっていたせいもあり見つけるのに時間がかかりました。またバウチャーはいらないとの事でしたが迎えに来た担当者に渡すように言われました。
ツアー自体は大変おもしろくクジラが見えた瞬間には興奮しました。
船の中では3階にいたのですが、軽食が2階にしか置いてなくいちいち階段を降りて取りに行くのが面倒でした。上と下の2か所にあればよかったと思いました。水以外の飲み物も欲しかったです。

I felt healed! 癒されました!

Reviewed by: アヤクロ

This is my third time participating. I always join when I go to Hawaii because I find healing with the dolphins and turtles. I was able to see the dolphins and turtles again this time, but since the schedule is tailored to them, the early morning pickup is tough (of course). If you plan to use this program, you need to adjust your schedule before and after to avoid getting unwell.

今回で3回目の参加です。
イルカとカメに癒されるのでハワイに行くときは必ず参加しています。
今回もイルカとカメに会えましたが、彼らに合わせたスケジュールなので、(もちろんなのですが)朝のピックアップが早いのが大変です。
このプランを利用する場合は前後のスケジュールを調整して臨まないと、体調を崩します。

2-Hour Afternoon West Oahu Whale Watching Tour - Hawaii Nautical [Dec-Mar]

Baby whale! (doo doo doo doo doo)

Reviewed by: Kristin

It was a lovely afternoon on the boat where we saw and followed 2 pairs of whales-- one of which was a mama and a baby whale! The team was experienced and knowledgeable and also showed us other ocean wildlife while we were waiting for the whales to resurface. Excellent activity-- I would do again.

Moving. 感動

Reviewed by: ヒーコ

I used to get seasick and wasn't good at swimming in the ocean, but the beauty of the sea and sky made me forget my discomfort. I was thrilled to swim with sea turtles, which I had always dreamed of. I was also surprised by the pod of dolphins. I have come to love the ocean, which I once found difficult.

船酔いもするし、海で泳ぐことは苦手でしたが、海と空の綺麗さが酔いを忘れさせてくれました。
念願のウミガメと一緒に泳ぐことも出来て感動しました。イルカの群れにはビックリです。
苦手だった海が大好きになりました。

Heiko,
I'm so glad to hear that you have come to love the ocean, with its crystal-clear waters and the white clouds floating in the vast sky of Hawaii! It seems that the dolphins welcomed you warmly as well! I feel every day that both marine life and people are connected and living together in harmony with nature.

ヒーコさん、
ハワイの透き通る海とどこまでも広がる大空にぽっかり浮かぶ白い雲。苦手な海を好きになっていただけて嬉しいです!
イルカ先生もヒーコさんをしっかりお出迎えしてくれたようですね!
自然との関わりの中、海の生物も人も繋がりを持って生きているんだと日々感じます。

Whale watching ホエールウォッチング

Reviewed by: mizちゃん

This time, I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't see the whales jumping from afar, but on the way to the whale watching spot, I encountered dolphins, which made me feel lucky. It was great that breakfast was included on the boat. The reservation through Veltra was the cheapest among the sites I checked.

今回はクジラが遠くジャンプも見れなかったので少しがっかりでしたがクジラスポットに向かう途中にイルカに遭遇し、得した気分でした。船内で朝食も付けれて良かったです。ベルトラからの予約が見たサイトの中では一番安かったです。

I couldn't see any whales. くじら見えませんでした

Reviewed by: REN

My child said they wanted to see whales, so we joined in. I was also looking forward to it since I had never seen them before. I felt reassured because it was mentioned that if we couldn't spot any whales, we would receive a free reboarding ticket.

There were about four announcements saying, "We see them now!" but most people missed the chance to see them. Although there were announcements, we didn't see any whales at all, so we couldn't reboard.

As for lunch, there wasn't much to eat, so I just snacked on potato chips. It's disappointing because encountering whales is also a matter of luck.

Sea turtles are the best! ウミガメ最高

Reviewed by: ram

I participated in this tour before and had a great experience, so I invited a friend to try it as well. The weather was nice, and the turtles were swimming comfortably, making me realize that I am currently in Oahu. The food was delicious, and I recommend it. It's safer to have motion sickness medication on hand.

このツアーは以前にも参加して良かったので友人を誘いましてトライしまし。
天気も良く、カメも気持ち良く泳いでいて、このツアーでオワフ今いるんだなと実感できます。

マンタ大学夜学部 野生のマンタ&ナイトシュノーケリングツアー <送迎可/日本語スタッフ乗船日あり>

Close encounter with a manta! 間近にマンタ!

Reviewed by: ハワイ好き

The sight of three manta rays gracefully rising from the seabed and swirling around in a mesmerizing dance under the fantastical light was truly beautiful and moving. They came up close to us repeatedly, creating an unforgettable experience.

The rental for wetsuits was $10 for adults and $5 for children. I was honestly worried that it might be too cold to endure during this winter season in Hawaii, but thanks to the wetsuits, it wasn't as cold as I expected, and the 40 minutes flew by.

We participated as a family of five across three generations: my mother (68), my husband (44), myself (40), my daughter (16), and my son (10), and everyone was extremely satisfied! The sunset and starry sky before and after snorkeling were also spectacular. Unlike regular snorkeling, this experience involved simply holding onto a board and floating while observing, so even small children, older adults, and those who are not good swimmers can enjoy it without worry.

幻想的な光の中を3枚のマンタが海底から優雅に上がってきて、グルグルと大きく踊るように回る様子は本当に美しく、感動的な光景でした。
身体に触れる近さで何度も何度も上がってきてくれて、一生忘れられない体験になりました。
ウェットスーツは大人10ドル、子ども5ドルで貸出でした。ハワイでも冬のこの時期、正直寒すぎて耐えられないのではないかと不安だったのですが、ウェットスーツのお陰で思ったよりも寒くなく、あっという間の40分でした。
3世代、母(68歳)、主人(44歳)、私(40歳)、娘(16歳)、息子(10歳)の5人で参加しましたが、全員大満足!
シュノーケリング前後の夕日や星空も見応え満点です。普通のシュノーケリングと違い、ボードに捕まって浮かぶだけの観察なので、小さい子も年配の方も、泳ぎが苦手な方も心配なく楽しめます。

Whales and beautiful scenery. くじらと美しい景色

Reviewed by: パイン

While looking at past experiences, I participated with a bit of worry, thinking that I might not be able to see any whales. In reality, I didn't feel any presence at all until the very end, but I was able to see the spouts (breath) and tails of two whales at the last moment. I was so happy! Also, the view of Oahu from the sea was very beautiful, and I was able to take some lovely photos. I managed to take some pictures of the whales as well, but since there was a distance, if you want impressive photos, it would be best to prepare a telephoto camera or purchase photos from the ship's dedicated photographer.

過去の体験談を見ていたら、くじらを見れないことも多いのかなと少し心配しならがら参加しました。実際途中まで全く気配を感じることもできませんでしたが、最後の最後に2頭のくじらの潮吹き(呼吸)や尾びれを見ることができました。うれしかったです。また海上から見るオアフ島はとてもきれいで素敵な写真を撮ることができました。くじらの写真もとりあえず撮ることができましたが、やはり距離があるので迫力ある写真がほしければ、望遠タイプのカメラを準備するか船の専属カメラマンの写真を購入するのが良さそうです。
