I was able to swim with dolphins, and at the very end, I even saw a manatee! Feeling satisfied and a bit tired while returning to land, we danced on the boat to the music from Moana: The Legend of the Sea! It was quite moving.
いるかと泳ぐ事もできて、最後の最後でホヌも見れました!満足して少し疲れながら陸へ帰るときに、モアナと伝説の海を流しながら船の上でダンス!これがなかなか感動的でした。

On the day, it was windy and cold, and we couldn't see any dolphins. However, it was nice that the captain and the staff tried to make it enjoyable for us. It was a bit tough with small children. I would like to try again when the kids are a little older.
当日は風が強く、そして寒く、イルカに会うことはできませんでした。
が、船長さんをはじめ、スタッフのみなさんが楽しませようとしてくれているのが良かったです。
小さい子供連れにはちょっとキツかったです。
もう少し子供が大きくなったら再チャレンジしたいです。

I think there were too many people. I would have liked them to split us into two boats to distribute the number of people. Even when trying to watch the hula dance, it was hard to see because the staff were filming videos on their smartphones. Especially since I was alone, I often felt overlooked. I would have appreciated a bit more consideration.
人数が多すぎると思います。船を2つに分けて人数を振り分けて欲しかったです。フラダンスを見ようにも従業員がスマホで動画撮っており見ずらかったです。特に1人なので忘れられることが多かったです。もう少し気配りがほしかったです

There were dolphins right in front of me!
First, they explained about the dolphins, how to swim, and details about Hawaii before heading into the ocean.
It was truly beautiful, and there were many sea turtles and fish!
Participating was the best. There was a professional photographer, so they took a lot of pictures.
One downside was that I got seasick. I usually don’t get seasick, but maybe because I wasn't used to it, I started to feel unwell. There were others who got seasick too, so motion sickness medication is a must.
本当に目の前にイルカがいました!
最初にイルカのことや、泳ぎ方、ハワイのことを詳しく説明してくれて、いざ海へ。
本当にきれいで、ウミガメや魚もたくさんいます!!
参加して最高でした。写真もプロのカメラマンがいるので、たくさん撮影してくれます。
1つ難点が、波酔いをしてしまった点。あまり酔うことはない私ですが、慣れないせいか、気分が悪くなってしまいました。私以外にも酔っていた人がいたので、酔い止めは必須です。
Thank you for your kind words, Tommy. All of our staff are very happy to hear that. Hawaii has many wonderful sights and beautiful beaches, so when you come back to Hawaii, please be sure to come and visit Dolphin Sensei. We are sincerely looking forward to the day we can meet again. Thank you for participating in the tour this time.

I participated with my 5-year-old and 11-year-old children. I was worried if my son, who had just turned 5, would enjoy it, but with the strong encouragement from the staff and the fact that he loves water, we jumped into the sea when the dolphins appeared! I jumped in first, and my son happily followed the staff and was able to see the dolphins up close!
I thought my son might not be able to use the snorkeling mask, so I brought goggles for him to use instead. I think it's better for small children to have their own gear. My 11-year-old son is a good swimmer, but he wasn't used to fins, so he found them a bit difficult to use. Since it was mentioned that using fins is not mandatory, I think those who are not accustomed to them can skip using them.
On the day we participated, we were able to see dolphins right after leaving the port, which allowed us plenty of time for activities. The whole family enjoyed snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, and kayaking together.
Since we had an early morning departure, we had breakfast early and boarded the bus, but we were allowed to eat on the bus! Of course, we took motion sickness medication beforehand. Some people felt seasick after entering the water, so be cautious. We borrowed wetsuits for the whole family, which I think are essential for the sea in November.
From start to finish, all the staff had very pleasant smiles and responses, and they communicated in Japanese, which made us feel secure participating. The photos were also wonderful. Thank you very much! ★
5歳、11歳の子供たちと家族で参加しました。
5歳になりたての息子が楽しめるか不安だったのですが、スタッフさんの心強い励ましと、もともと水が大好きということもあり、イルカが現れていざ海へ!と私が先に飛び込むと、スタッフさんと元気に飛び込んでしっかりイルカを見ることができました!
シュノーケルのマスクは使えないかな?と思い、ゴーグルを持参していたので5歳の息子はそれを使いました。小さいお子さんは自前のものがある方がいいかと思います。
11歳の息子は泳ぎが堪能ですが、フィンには慣れていなかったので使いにくいようでした。必ず使わなくてもよいとのことだったので、慣れない方は無理に使わなくてもいいかと思います。
参加した日は、港を出てすぐの場所でイルカに会うことができたため、アクティビティの時間がしっかりあり、シュノーケルもSUPもカヤックも家族みんなで楽しめました。
朝早い集合出発なので、これまた朝早くからご飯を食べてバスに乗り込んだのですが、バスの中で食事をしてもよいとのことでした!もちろん酔い止めは飲んで行きました。船もですが、海に入ってから波に酔われる方もいらしたので注意です。ウェットスーツは家族みんなで借りました。11月の海では必須だと思います。
最初から最後まで、スタッフみなさんとても気持ち良い笑顔と対応で、そして日本語で、安心して参加することができました。写真もステキでした。本当にありがとうございました★

I was captivated by the incredibly beautiful sea and decided to participate for the second time. Compared to last year, the experience has leveled up, with Japanese-speaking staff available. There were more underwater scooters, allowing several people to ride at once, and wet suits were provided for cold weather protection. The staff were very kind and took great care of us, even holding our hands underwater. However, when riding the scooter, my hair got wet, and the resulting photos made me look a bit different, but since they are great memories, I decided to purchase them. If possible, I would love to try again for a third time!

Steven and Shawn were amazing captain and guide. Provided us with an amazing tour and really great snorkeling spots around the area! The tour time is perfect to catch sunset and then it gets dark so the water lights up beautifully in the dark. The waves in the ocean are a bit rough so going on an empty stomach is adviseable. We saw 5 manta rays on our expedition. Definitely an attraction to do on the Big Island!! And Kona Ocean Experience is a great company that hosts this amazing experience!!

Just to be safe, I bought fins and brought them with me. Even though they weigh 500 grams, they made my suitcase heavy. Please provide a thorough explanation.

This was my first time in Hawaii, and I participated because I really wanted to see dolphins. Although we had an early meeting time at 5:30 AM, our guide kept us engaged with various stories on the bus, which helped shake off the sleepiness and gradually built up my excitement.
The wind was strong and the waves were high that day, so it was uncertain whether we would see dolphins. However, thanks to the legendary captain's intuition, we soon encountered a pod of dozens of dolphins. The moment I jumped into the water and looked down, I saw a school of dolphins swimming, and that feeling of awe is something I will never forget.
After that, we encountered another pod and were able to meet dolphins a second time. I also got to take many wonderful photos, and I was extremely satisfied!
I was completely satisfied with everything. Thank you!
今回は初めてのハワイで、是非イルカに会いたいと思い参加しました。
朝5:30集合の早い時間でしたが、ガイドさんがバスの中で終始いろいろなお話をしていただき、眠気が覚めると同時に徐々に気持ちも期待も高ぶってきました。
この日は風が強く波もあったため、イルカに会えるか微妙な感じでしたが、伝説の船長の勘!?で早々にイルカ数十頭の群れに遭遇することができました。
海に飛び込みすぐに下を見た瞬間、数十頭のイルカの群れが泳いでおり、そのときの感動は今でも忘れられません。
その後、さらにもう一度群れに遭遇し、二度イルカに出会えることができました。
たくさん素晴らしい写真も撮っていただき大満足です!
全てにおいて大満足でしました。ありがとうございました!

The large windows made it very easy to see, which was great. Those who participated in the normal submarine mentioned that the windows were small, and they had to lean in to look out. However, I think it was just luck, as I didn't encounter any dolphins or turtles. Inside the submarine, it was very cold, so I used a hoodie and a shawl. The monotony and the cold made me feel sleepy in the second half. Since I rarely get to go diving, I think it was a unique experience.
大きな窓だったので、とても見やすくて良かったです。ノーマルサブマアリンに参加した方は、窓が小さくてかがみこむようにして眺めてたと話していました。ただ、やっぱり運だと思いましたが、イルカやカメには出会えませんでした。潜水艦の中はとても寒くてパーカーとストールを使いました。淡々としているのと寒さで後半は眠くなってしまいました。めったに潜水なんてできないので、珍しい体験にはなったと思います。

I wasn't able to see any dolphins. I did see two sea turtles, but it was just a quick glimpse from inside the boat.
I forgot to bring motion sickness medication, but I happened to meet someone the day before who occasionally works at Dolphin University. When I mentioned this, they told me that some guides have it available, so I asked on the bus, but they said, "We don't provide it due to allergies and such." However, the person sitting behind us heard this and kindly shared their motion sickness medication with us, which was a lifesaver!!!
The boat really sways a lot, so it might be better to take motion sickness medication even just for peace of mind. I couldn't see any dolphins, the boat was rocking, and saltwater got in my eyes, which hurt for the rest of the first day.
The captain and the staff were doing their best to keep the mood up, and I was able to enjoy activities like snorkeling and kayaking. I want to participate again someday for a chance to see dolphins.
イルカを見ることができませんでした。
ウミガメは2頭見ることができましたが、船内からちらっと見た感じでした。
酔い止めを忘れてしまったのですが、前日にイルカ大学でたまに働いているという方と偶然お会いして、そのことを伝えるとガイドによっては用意しているから聞いてみたらいいよ、と言われたので車内で聞いてみたところ「アレルギーなどあるので、提供していない」とのことでした。
しかし、それを聞いていた後ろの席の方が、私たちに酔い止めを分けてくださったので、助かりました!!!
船はすごく揺れますので、酔い止めは気持ち的なものでも飲んだ方が楽かもしれません。
イルカを見れず、船は揺れて、塩水が目に入ってその後1日目が痛かったです。

I was worried about seasickness, but I took some motion sickness medication and it seemed to work, so I was fine. The explanations were also provided in Japanese, so there were no problems at all. However, even when we arrived at the spot, it took a while for the manta rays to appear, and we waited on the boat for quite some time. Finally, we got the go-ahead to enter the water and waited for the manta rays to come. Soon, one manta ray passed by so close that I could almost touch it. It was thrilling. That day, I saw four manta rays, but only the first one came close, which was a bit disappointing.
船酔いを心配しましたが、酔い止めを飲み効果があったのか大丈夫でした。
説明も日本語でしてくれるので全然問題ありません。ただポイントに着いてもなかなか マンタが現れず、船の上でずっと待っていましたが。やっとゴーサイン出て海の中に入って、

Diese Tour fand mit ca. 18 Personen auf einem modernen Katamaran statt. Man befindet sich ca. 45min im Wasser, wobei man neue Neoprenanzüge trägt. Der Trip wurde professionell durchgeführt, es fanden sich neben den Teilnehmern stets 2-3 Sicherheitsschwimmer im Wasser. Wir sahen 5-6 majestische Mantarochen - selten was eindrucksvolleres erlebt. Ich empfehle Mittel gegen Seekrankheit, denn die Tour findet auf offenener See (Wellengang) und bei Dunkelheit statt. Kann diese Tour auf jeden Fall empfehlen.

As soon as I entered the sea, a manta ray came right up to me and performed several spins! It was so close that I could feel it touching my body. It was very impressive and exciting.
It takes about 20 minutes to get to the spot, so if the waves are high, you might get seasick. Also, it gets quite cold after coming out of the water.

A month and a half before this trip to Hawaii, I fractured my ankle... had surgery... and was hospitalized. Would I be able to go? But with a strong desire to meet the dolphins, I started rehabilitation after receiving permission to walk just nine days before departure. I managed to walk, but could I really swim with wild dolphins??? I had those worries, so I immediately consulted with the staff who came to pick me up before 6 AM. They kindly said, "Let's go together."
Actually, this is my third time participating in this tour, and I've become quite hooked, so I really didn't want to give up and worked hard on my rehabilitation. That one sentence in the morning made all my anxieties disappear. I would get to meet the dolphin teacher... so exciting!
By the time we arrived at the port after an hour on the bus, dawn was beginning to break. This is where the real adventure begins. The captain steered the boat south... Amazing!! A whale at this time of year! The size and power were breathtaking. I think you can’t truly understand it unless you see it in person.
Next up were the dolphins. I had seen them in the past three trips, but this time, the dolphin teacher swam towards us. It felt like they were trying to heal my injured foot. I couldn’t help but think that way. My foot was in bad shape, but this encounter with the dolphin was the best.
This is a feeling you can only understand by experiencing it. Wild dolphins, not in an aquarium! Incredible. After that, we enjoyed snorkeling, canoeing, and a full menu of activities. I am truly grateful for the kindness and support of the staff. Thank you very much. This became my most memorable moment of this trip to Hawaii.
今回のハワイ旅行の1か月半前に足首骨折…手術…入院行けるの?
から始まって、でもこのイルカに会いたい一心で、出発の9日前に歩く許可が出てからのリハビリ、頑張ってなんとか歩けるようになったものの、野生のイルカと泳ぐ???できるのかな?
そんな不安もありーので、早朝6時前のお迎えに来てくれたスタッフに、即相談しました。
快く「私と一緒に行きましょう」と言ってくださいました。
実は私、このツアー3回目の参加ですでにハマってるんですが、だから尚更諦めたくなくて、頑張ってリハビリやってきたんです。この朝の一言で、本当に不安がどっか行ってしまいました。
イルカ先生に会えるよ…wakuwaku
バスで1時間港に到着した頃、夜が明け始めてきました。
ここからが本番です。
船長の勘で船は南へ…
すごいです!!この時期に?くじらです!
大きさ迫力…感激です。これ実際に見ないとわからないと思います。
次はイルカの出番です。過去3回とも会えたんですが、今回のイルカ先生、私たちに向かって泳いで来てくれるのです。私の足悪いの癒してくれようとしてくれているようです。って勝手に思ってしまいました。
私の足は大変でしたが、今回のイルカとの出会いは、最高でした。
これも、実際体験しないとわからない感動です。
水族館ではない野生のイルカ!すごいです。
そのあと、シュノーケル、カヌーなど、メニューめいっぱい遊びました。
スタッフの優しさ、対応、本当に感謝です。ありがとうございました。
今回のハワイ旅行の1番の思い出になりました。
Aloha Coconut,

I only saw the dolphin swimming on the seabed from a distance, but the sea turtle swam very close, and it was a great experience.
イルカは海底を泳いでるところを遠くから見るだけでしたが、ウミガメがすごく近くを泳いでて、良い体験が出来ました。

I was satisfied to be able to meet Dolphin Sensei! I would have been even more satisfied if I could swim with the dolphins up close. It was truly fulfilling to see the turtles up close as well.
無事イルカ先生に会うことができ満足でした!
もっと近くでイルカと泳げれば大満足でした。
亀も近くで見られて本当に充実しました。

Another snorkeling tour I had booked was canceled the day before, and I was in a bit of a bind. I searched online just in case, and found a tour that I could join the next day, so I signed up. I thought it would be nice just to get on the boat and go snorkeling, but it turned out to be even better with drinks and cruising while listening to music. I had a great time. We were the only Japanese people there, but that also added to the overseas experience, which was nice.
別のシュノーケリングの付いた観光ツアーが、前日に中止になってしまい、困ってたところダメ元で検索したら翌日でも参加可能だったので申し込みました。ボートに乗れて、シュノーケリングできればいいやーて思ってましたが、それ以上にお酒も飲めて音楽を聴きながらのクルージングがあったので、すごく楽しかったです。日本人は私たちだけでしたが、それもまた海外気分を味わえてよかったです。
