After the boat departed, we started with snorkeling at a specific point, and then we went out to sea for dolphin watching. The snorkeling time felt long, but for dolphin watching, it was like, "Is this it? Are we going back already?" We did see wild dolphins, but it was during their sleeping time, and it felt too short (laughs). I wonder if we were there for even 10 minutes... It was disappointing. The staff were very nice and made us feel at ease, so it's a shame.
船出発後、ポイント的にシュノーケリングが先でその後沖に出てドルフィンウォッチングしました。シュノーケリング時間は長く感じたのですが、ドルフィンウォッチングはえ、これで終わり?もう帰るの?という感じ。野生のドルフィンは見れてちょうど寝てる時間でしたが、短すぎる(笑)10分もいたかな、、、って感じです。期待はずれ。スタッフの方達はとても良い人たちで安心感もあったので残念です。

It was amazing to have a drink included, and we could freely take and eat snacks. Above all, we saw so many whales and dolphins! We were the only Japanese people on board, but on the contrary, all the other passengers were really lively, and it was a lot of fun.
We saw whales jumping with their calves and slapping their tails on the water's surface many times, and the guide even said, "This is the best whale watching ever," so we were very satisfied. Additionally, they delayed our return to the harbor so we could see the sunset without any obstructions, which was perfect.
If you're going to Hawaii during whale season, I definitely recommend this!
I also saw reviews about feeling seasick, but we were fine. Some people might need motion sickness medication, but it seems that those who are relatively strong don't have any issues.
ワンドリンク付き、スナック菓子も自由に取って食べられて、何よりクジラとイルカがたくさん見られて最高でした!
日本人は私達だけでしたが、逆に乗客がみんなノリが良くとっても楽しかったです。
クジラは親子でジャンプしているところや尻尾を水面に打ち付けているところが何度も沢山見られて、ガイドの人も「今までで最高のホエールウォッチングだ」と言っているほどで、非常に満足しました。
また、夕陽が沈むのを最後まで見られるように予定時間よりも遅めに帰港してくれたので、サンセットも遮るものなくバッチリ見られました。
クジラのシーズンにハワイに行くならぜひおすすめします!
酔うという口コミも見ましたが、私達は大丈夫でした。人によっては酔い止めがあるのかもしれませんが、割と強い人は無くて大丈夫そうです。

The weather on the day was clear, and I was a little worried about whether we would be able to see whales, but there was no need for concern as we were able to see whales multiple times!
On the boat, we enjoyed cake for our meal, and we could also have drinks like coffee and tea, making the two hours very satisfying.
Not only did we see whales that day, but we also spotted dolphins, and we were able to enjoy the view of Waikiki from the sea, making it a valuable experience that went beyond just whale watching.
The energetic staff shared a lot of knowledge about whales after we set sail and provided many interesting facts during the whale watching, which deepened my understanding of these magnificent creatures.
I definitely want to participate again when I go to Honolulu!
当日は快晴で、鯨もちゃんと見られるか少し心配していましたが、心配の必要が無かったくらいに何回もクジラを見ることができました!
船内ではケーキの食事や、コーヒーやお茶などの飲み物も飲むことができて、2時間たっぷりと満足することができました。
当日はクジラだけでなく、イルカも見ることができましたし、海からのワイキキの景色も堪能することができ、ホエールウォッチングにとどまらない貴重な体験をすることができました。
元気なスタッフさんたちが出航してからクジラについての知識や、ホエールウォッチング中もたくさんのクジラに対する豆知識を教えてくださり、とてもクジラに対する造詣を深めることができました。

The ship provided light snacks (coffee, tea, pineapple cake). The pineapple cake was delicious. The actual sailing time was about 2 hours. On this day, we were able to see two humpback whales. The whales came to the surface and spouted water at intervals of about 10 to 15 minutes, so I enjoyed chatting with the foreign people next to me (although I only understood about one-third of the conversation).
I didn't feel much movement while the ship was moving, but when the ship was stopped during whale watching, there was some rocking, so I think those who are prone to seasickness might need motion sickness medication. When the ship returned to the port, there were a few people on board celebrating their birthdays, and everyone sang "Happy Birthday," which felt very international and was really nice.
船内は軽食付き(コーヒー、紅茶、パイナップルケーキ)です。パイナップルケーキが美味しかったです。実際の乗船時間は2時間ほど。この日はザトウクジラを2頭見ることができました。クジラは約10〜15分間隔で水面上に来て潮吹きをしていたので、横の海外の人と談笑しながら楽しみました。(言葉は1/3程度しか理解できなかったですが、)
船が動いているときはそこまで感じなかったですが、ホエールウォッチング中の船が止まっているときは船揺れがあったりするので酔いに弱い人は酔い止めが必要かと思います。船が港へ戻る時に船内で誕生日だった人が数名いて、みんなでハッピーバースデーの歌を歌ってお祝いしていたのが海外らしくてとてもよかったです。
This time, I participated in February. When the sun is shining, a short-sleeved shirt is usually fine, but in shaded areas, on the boat, or inside the bus, there were moments when the wind was strong

There were only two groups of participants, so it was almost a private tour, but it was conducted as planned. I took motion sickness medication beforehand, but there were hardly any waves that day, so I had no issues at all. From the boat, I was able to see the spouts and tails of whales in the distance, and dolphins right next to the boat. Unfortunately, I couldn't see any sea turtles while snorkeling, but it was a very valuable and enjoyable experience. Thank you very much, Yuji!

On the way back, we saw the whales - what a bonus!!

On the way to the manta snorkeling point, while riding the boat and enjoying the beautiful sunset, we were able to see two whales and many sharks. I heard that sharks can only be seen about twice a year.
During snorkeling, the large mantas came so close that it felt like they were almost going to bump into us, which was very impressive!
The staff were all very kind, and having a Japanese guide on board made us feel secure. After the tour, they even sent us the videos taken with the GoPro for free. I highly recommend this tour!

Due to the high waves that started midway, there was no snack distribution. I had planned to go get a drink when the snacks were handed out, so I couldn't go. When I stopped by the bar counter upon disembarking, there were no staff present, and there were only a few snacks in a basket that people who noticed helped themselves to. The drinks were just a display of cans... If the distribution was canceled due to the high waves, I would have appreciated it if someone had been at the bar counter during disembarkation to hand them out. In the end, I wasn't able to receive the limited-time drink benefit. I noticed that some people didn't tip at all, so I wondered if that might have affected the service. Although I didn't see any whales, I had a great time seeing a lot of dolphins, which made the lack of service feel like a missed opportunity.
途中から波が高くなったせいかスナックの配布がなかった。スナック配布されたらドリンクを取りに行くつもりにしていたので行けず。下船時にバーカウンターに寄りましたが、スタッフ不在、スナックが少しだけカゴに入って置いていたので気づいた人が自ら取っていました。
ドリンクは缶の見本が並べてあっただけ…。高波で配布を見送ったのなら、下船時にバーカウンターにいて頂いて、お渡しして欲しかったです。結局期間限定特典のドリンクは受け取れずじまいでした。
チップを全く入れてない人もいたので、こういうことも影響しているのではないかと思いました。
クジラは見れませんでしたがイルカがたくさん見れて楽しかっただけに、サービスがもったいなく感じました。
For the 10:30 flight, if the weather is clear, the sunlight can be quite strong, so I think it's a good idea to have sunscreen and a light jacket.

On the day I went, I could see the whales' spouts and tails far off in the distance, but the crew did their best to keep things lively and entertaining. Since it's nature, whether you get to see the whales up close is a matter of luck.

On this day, the sky was completely covered with clouds and there was a strong wind. It started to rain midway, and by the time we disembarked, there was a full-blown storm. Perhaps due to the strong winds, the waves were high and there were whitecaps, making it difficult to spot whales. However, there were several announcements on the ship about whale sightings, and my husband and I were able to see a spout once each. A few Japanese passengers who were on board with us also mentioned they saw a spout just once. Does seeing a spout mean you've seen a whale? I wonder if it was the right decision to set sail in that weather. If asked whether I would like to go again, I would say I do not want to. Even if the weather were good, it seems there is a set distance from which you can approach the whales, so I think it would be difficult to actually see the whales themselves. The coffee and light snacks were delicious (although the boat rocked so much that the coffee spilled...).
この日は空一面の雲に強い風、途中から雨が降り始め、下船するころには大嵐になっていました。強い風のためか波が高く白波が立ち、クジラ発見には難しい条件だったと思いますが、船内に何回かクジラ発見の放送が流れ、私たち夫婦は潮吹きを1度づつ見ることができました。一緒に乗っていた日本の方たち数人も潮吹きを1度だけ見たと言っていました。潮吹きを見たらクジラを見たことになるのか?あの天候で船を出すことは正解なのか?疑問です。また乗ってみたいかと言われれば、もう乗りたくありません。天候が良かったとしても、クジラに近寄れる距離が決まっているらしく、クジラ本体を見ることは難しいのではないかと思いました。コーヒーと軽食は美味しかったです(コーヒーがこぼれるほど揺れましたが・・・)
After the ship set sail, there was an explanation about whales in English on board, and I was able to understand it to some extent using the Google Translate app. Not all the restrooms are available f
出船後船内でクジラの説明が英語でありましたが、グーグルの翻訳アプリで結構拾えて、ある程度理解できました。トイレは全部が使えるわけではなく、鍵のかかっているトイレがあります。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We also appreciate your feedback. It's unfortunate that the weather wasn't very good, but we are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the snacks. We hope you will visit us again on a nice, sunny day next time.
この度は私共のクルーズにお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
そして、今回のお声を有難うございます。お天気があまり良くなかったのは残念ですが、軽食をお楽しみ頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。次回はお天気も良く晴れた日にまたお越しくださいませ。

My husband and I participated in this trip for our honeymoon.
Thanks to the favorable weather, the boat didn't sway, and we were able to enjoy the beautiful sea and the views of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the water.
As for the whales, we were able to see them multiple times during the trip. However, they were all quite far away, and we could only see their spouts and a bit of their black backs and tails. I think it was great just to see them, but if I had to say something, I wish we could have seen them a little closer.
新婚旅行で夫と2人で参加しました。
天気に恵まれたため船が揺れることもなく、綺麗な海や海からのワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めることができました。
肝心のクジラですが、乗船中何度も見ることができました。しかしいずれも遠いところで、潮吹きと黒い背中と尾鰭が少し見える程度。姿を見ることができただけでも良かったのだと思いますが、強いて言えば、もう少し近くで見れると良かったなと思います。
Thank you very much for choosing our cruise for your honeymoon. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed whale watching and the views from the ship. We hope to see you again soon. All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.

I originally joined this tour because I love sharks. We took a bus for just under two hours from our hotel in Waikiki to Haleiwa. We gathered at a small shack decorated with shark patterns and set off. There were about 14 or 15 participants, and I was the only Japanese person (the staff were not Japanese either).
The explanations were in English, and the engine noise was loud, so I couldn't understand much, but I managed to get by. Since my eyesight is poor, I borrowed prescription goggles, but they weren't very clear, so I recommend bringing contact lenses if you have vision issues. As others have mentioned, once we arrived at the spot, the waves were high and it was easy to get seasick. I got seasick here too.
However, when we got into the cage, I was so focused on watching the sharks that I forgot about my seasickness. I was very satisfied to see a nearly 3-meter-long tiger shark up close. The shark was calm, and I was moved by its graceful swimming. Unfortunately, I didn't see many other sharks besides that tiger shark. After getting out of the cage, I felt worse and ended up vomiting. There was another person who vomited as well. However, after that, I felt refreshed and was able to enjoy the return trip.
I was a bit anxious about participating alone as a woman, but I had a valuable experience and it was really great! If there are others in a similar situation who are hesitant to join, I encourage you to participate without hesitation!

もともとサメが好きでこのツアーに参加しました。ワイキキのホテルからバスで2時間弱かけてハレイワまで向かいました。サメの柄の小さな小屋に集合して出発しました。参加者は14、5人で日本人は私1人だけでした(スタッフの方も日本人ではない)。
説明は英語かつエンジンの音がうるさくあまり理解できませんでしたが、なんとかなりました笑。視力が低いので、度ありのゴーグルを借りましたが、あまり見えやすくはなかったので目がよくない方はコンタクトを持って行くことをおすすめします。他の方も言っている通り、スポットについてからは波が高く酔いやすいです。当方もここで酔いました。
しかし、ケージに入る際はサメを見ることに夢中で酔っていることを忘れました。体長3メートル弱のタイガーシャークを一匹、近くで見ることができとても満足でした。サメは穏やかで、優雅に泳ぐ姿に感動しました。しかしそのタイガーシャーク以外のサメはほとんど見れませんでした。ケージから出た後、酔いが酷くなり吐いてしまいました。私以外にももう1人吐いてる方がいました。しかし、その後はスッキリして帰港を楽しむことができました。
女1人の参加で少し不安でしたが貴重な経験ができてとても良かったです!同じ境遇で参加を迷っている方がいたらぜひ迷わず参加してみてください!!

I think it's a good idea for those who don't know how to snorkel (especially the breathing technique) to do some research. It would also be beneficial to prepare for underwater photography.
シュノーケリングのやり方(主に呼吸の方法)を知らない人は調べておいた方が良いと思います。
水中で撮影できる用意をしておくと良いと思います。

Since it was a tour involving nature, I thought I wouldn't know if I would see anything until it was over, but in the end, I had a wonderful experience. I understood that we couldn't get too close to the whales and would only be able to see them from a distance, but the whales came close to us, and I was able to see them up very close.
I participated in early February, and there were many whales. I was moved by how many there were. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone whose timing aligns.
自然が相手のツアーなので、見れるかどうか終わってみないとわからないなぁ、と思っていましたが、結果、素晴らしい経験ができました。くじらにはあまり近づけないとのことで、遠くからしか見られないのは仕方ないと思っていましたが、クジラが近づいてきてくれて、ものすごく近くで見ることが出来ました。
参加時期は2月上旬でしたが、クジラはたくさんいました。こんなにたくさんいるんだと感動しました。
是非、タイミングが合う方は参加をお勧めします。
Sunscreen is essential due to the strong sunlight. It's also good to have something to cover up, like a light jacket, a hat, and sunglasses. All explanations are in English, but it's okay if you don't
日差しが強いので、日焼け止め必須。
羽織るものや帽子、サングラスなどもあると良い。解説はすべて英語ですが、わからなくても問題なし。船上では、アルコールやソフトドリンクも売っています(スナック無料)。

As we left the shoreline, the captain noticed several whales breaching in the distance. He asked if we wanted to go past the reef to see it and we all said yes, of course. We spent most of the 30 minutes whale watching from a distance. On our return trip, the crew still found time to pass over the reef and explain several interesting details not only about the reef but the animals the call it home. It was a great time and the crew did a great job!
Aloha,

I was worried, but I'm glad I was able to see the whales properly. The explanations in Japanese were easy to understand. I recommend it.

I participated in the whale watching tour on the Star of Honolulu with a pickup from Waikiki (with snacks and drinks included). There were many participants on the large boat. Even though it was the rainy season in February, we were blessed with good weather and enjoyed the views of the blue sky and the deep blue sea from the boat. We also saw whales multiple times, including some mother and calf pairs, and got to witness them spouting water. It was a very satisfying whale watching experience. If you're coming to Waikiki, I highly recommend you join this tour!

Thank you very much for participating in Dolphin & You Tour. We sincerely appreciate your valuable feedback.
We apologize for the short duration of the dolphin watching, which did not meet your expectations. As an eco-tour company, we prioritize observing wild dolphins in their natural environment without chasing them. Therefore, the time available for observation may vary depending on the dolphins' behavior and conditions. Additionally, if dolphins are hard to find, we may adjust the snorkeling time or change the order of watching and snorkeling based on sea conditions. We hope for your understanding in this matter.
We are encouraged by your kind words about our staff. We will continue to strive to provide tours that satisfy everyone, so we hope you will join us again in the future.
Once again, thank you for participating!

イルカウォッチングの時間が短く、期待に沿えなかったとのこと、大変申し訳ございません。弊社はエコツアー会社として認定されており、野生のイルカを無理に追い回すことなく、自然の中での観察を大切にしております。そのため、イルカの行動や状況によって、観察できる時間に差が出てしまうことがございます。また、イルカがなかなか見つからない場合は、シュノーケリングの時間を調整したり、海の状況に応じてウォッチングとシュノーケリングの順番を変更することもございます。何卒ご理解いただけますと幸いです。
スタッフについて温かいお言葉をいただき、大変励みになります。これからも、皆様によりご満足いただけるツアーをご提供できるよう努めてまいりますので、またの機会がございましたらぜひご参加くださいませ。
