I was able to see whales. クジラ見れました

Reviewed by: Linn

I didn't see any tails splashing, but I did see whales multiple times and also witnessed spouting. I opted for the breakfast option, and it had more variety than I expected and was delicious, so I'm glad I chose it. The boat was large, so I didn't get seasick, and the restroom was clean. The view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea was also wonderful! Even if you don't see whales, you can still enjoy the cruise. I would love to participate again.

しっぽバッシャーンのような姿は見られませんでしたが、何度もクジラの姿が見られたし、潮吹きも見られました。朝食付きにしましたが、思っていたよりも種類もあったしおいしかったので付けてよかったです。大きな船だったので船酔いもなく、トイレもきれい、海から見るワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドの姿も素晴らしかったです！もしクジラが見られなくてもクルーズを楽しめます。また参加したいです。

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

Wonderful excursion for the morning

Reviewed by: Sheesh

I was in Hawaii for business but had a free morning. So I booked this trip as a solo traveler. I think I was the only solo person, everyone else were families. I felt a little odd b/c no one really talked to me, guides included. The guides were very good though - responsible and good intro speech. So happy that one of them found an octopus to touch (though I felt bad for the octopus). The turtles were adorable and came up to breathe very close to us snorkelers. Then we sailed around the bay for a bit which was lovely. I'm very happy I fit this excursion into my business trip.
I was a little unclear on tipping also - the fee said all gratuities included, so I didn't bring any cash. But the guides said to please feed the tip jar if satisfied. Which I was, but I hadn't planned on bringing cash to tip. So that was a little uncomfortable as I didn't want to look like I didn't enjoy myself - I truly did!

Unfortunately, we couldn't see any whales... 残念ながらクジラは見られず・・・

Reviewed by: みーさん

The main event of this trip to Hawaii (laugh) was the whale cruise. The crew members were using binoculars on deck to search for whales, but we didn't see a single one... However, on the way there, we saw a small shark, and on the way back, three dolphins swam alongside the boat, so that was nice. I guess we were a bit late in the season... I'll try again next year.

今回のハワイ旅行のメインイベント（笑）である、クジラクルーズ。

でも、往路では小さなサメ　復路の埠頭内ではイルカが三頭船に並走してくれたので　それだけでもよかったです。

イルカ大学　イルカウォッチング＆シュノーケリングクルーズ　イルカと泳ぐプランも！マリンアクティビティも充実＜ランチ付き／日本語／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可＞

I was able to swim with many dolphins! たくさんのイルカたちと一緒に泳げました！

Reviewed by: チャッピー

I have done snorkeling and diving many times in the past, but I had never experienced swimming with wild dolphins, so I decided to join this tour. The reason I chose this tour was that I read in the reviews that the staff seemed energetic and fun. In the end, choosing this tour was definitely the right decision!

Whether or not we would see dolphins and how many there would be depended on the season and luck, but thanks to the experienced captain searching for the right spots and the staff guiding us diligently, we were able to see many dolphins. We were lucky enough to encounter a rare large pod of nearly 100 dolphins swimming slowly, allowing us to see them up close and swim alongside them, which was incredibly moving!

We boarded the tour bus very early in the morning. I was a bit anxious about finding my pickup location (Sheraton) since it was a large gathering spot for various tours, but the welcoming staff were very energetic and had loud voices, so it was fine. Inside the bus, the chairperson, Julie, began the morning briefing. She explained everything enthusiastically, leaving no time for anyone to doze off, which actually heightened my excitement.

This time, we searched for dolphin spots and traveled quite far north along the west coast, so we spent a considerable amount of time on the boat. The boat did sway quite a bit, but since I took motion sickness medication, I didn’t feel sick; however, I think taking motion sickness medication is essential. On the way to the spot, we saw a few sea turtles from the boat.

I participated in March when the seawater was quite cold, so I wore a wetsuit, which can be rented on-site for $10 (cash only). Besides the cold, there’s also a risk of jellyfish stings, so I recommend wearing one if possible. Most participants on this tour were wearing wetsuits as well. It can get chilly on the boat after snorkeling, so it’s a good idea to bring something to cover up and a towel.

When we arrived at the spot, there were so many dolphins swimming in a pod that it was immediately noticeable. Following the staff's guidance, we swam towards the moving pod and saw many dolphins underwater! The water was clear, and the weather was good, so we could see them clearly, which was fantastic. We were also lucky to see them jumping and spinning multiple times. Since there was a considerable number of dolphins, I believe everyone got to see them, but to increase your chances of seeing them properly, it's best to stay close to the staff and follow their instructions. After a while, we briefly returned to the boat to change locations, but the previous pod came back to the same spot, so we jumped back into the water right away.

Overall, I think we were able to swim with the dolphins for a long time. However, because of that, the time for kayaking, paddleboarding, and snorkeling was shortened, and we spent only about 15-30 minutes at the new spot, which was a bit disappointing. We didn’t see any sea turtles while snorkeling, and there weren’t many fish either. Still, being able to enjoy such a large number of dolphins for a sufficient amount of time was more than enough to satisfy me.

On the return boat ride, we were served cheeseburgers and drinks, and we all danced the hula, making it enjoyable until the end. I was very happy to receive a group photo taken on the boat later via email.

Overall, I thought the staff's response was very smooth, and the tour content was well-organized without any wasted time. Their desire for everyone to see and enjoy the dolphins was evident.

It was an emotional experience and became the highlight of my trip. Thank you very much! If I go to Hawaii again, I would love to participate again!

シュノーケリングやダイビングは過去に何度もやったことがありましたが、野生のイルカと一緒に泳ぐというのは今まで体験したことがなかったのでこのツアーに参加しました。
こちらのツアーを選んだ理由は、体験談の口コミでスタッフの方が元気で楽しそうなところがいいなと思ったからです。
結果として、こちらのツアーを選んで大正解でした！

イルカに会えるかどうか、どのくらいの数がいるかどうかなどは、季節や運などに左右されてしまいますが、ベテラン船長がポイントを探してスタッフの方が一生懸命誘導してくれたので、たくさんのイルカを見ることができました。
運よくめったにない100匹近い大群がゆっくり泳いでいるところに出会えたので、一緒に泳いだと言えるほど近くでゆっくりイルカを見ることができとても感動しました！！

朝とても早い時間にツアーバスに乗り込みます。私がピックアップしてもらった場所(シェラトン)は、とても大きいツアー集合場所でいろいろなツアーの方がたくさんいたので、見つけられるか少し不安になりましたが、迎えのスタッフの方がとても元気で声が大きかったので(笑)大丈夫でした。
バスの中では委員長ジュリーさんの朝礼が始まります。元気いっぱいにいろいろ説明をしてくれて眠る隙は全くありませんでした(笑)逆に期待に気持ちが高まりました。

今回はイルカのポイントを探して、西海岸のかなり北の方まで行ったのでボートの乗っている時間が結構長かったです。ボートはやはり結構揺れるので、私は酔い止めを飲んでいたせいか酔いませんでしたが、酔い止めは必須だと思います。
ポイントに向かうまでの間に、ボートから何匹かウミガメを見ました。

私が参加したのは3月で海水が結構冷たかったので、ウェットスーツを着用しました。その場で$10(現金のみ)で借りることができます。寒さもそうですが、クラゲなどに刺されたりすることもあるそうなのでできたら着用することをおすすめします。今回のツアーでもほとんどの方が着ていました。
シュノーケル後など、船上では寒いこともあるので、羽織れるものとタオルは持って行った方がいいです。

ポイントに着くと、すぐに分かるくらいたくさんの数のイルカが群れになって泳いでいました。スタッフの方の誘導でイルカの群れが動く方に泳いで行き、海の中を見るとたくさんのイルカが見れました！水の透明度も高く天気もよかったためかはっきりと見えてとてもよかったです。しかもスピンしながらジャンプする姿も何度も見れてとてもラッキーでした。
今回はかなりの数のイルカの群れだったので参加者全員見れたと思いますが、ちゃんと見るチャンスを増やすにはなるべくスタッフの方の近くにいてその指示に従って行動するのがいいと思います。
その後一旦ボートに上がってポイントを変えようとしましたが、先程の群れがまた同じ場所に戻ってきたため、またすぐに海に飛び込びました。

トータルするとかなり長い時間、イルカを見ながら泳ぐことができたと思います。ただそのため、その後のカヤック、パドルボード、シュノーケリングの時間が短くなってしまいボートであまり移動せずその場で15～30分程度だったのが、少し残念でした。シュノーケルではウミガメは見れずお魚もあまりいませんでした。
ただ、あれだけの数のイルカをゆっくり十分な時間堪能できたので、それだけで十分満足しました。

帰りの船では、チーズバーガーや飲み物のサービス、みんなでフラを踊り、最後まで楽しませて頂きました。最後にみんなで船上で撮った集合写真を後でメールで送っていただくことができたので、とてもうれしかったです。

全体的にスタッフの方々の対応がとてもスムーズで、無駄のない良いツアー内容だったと思います。全員にイルカを見てもらおう、楽しんでもらおうという気持ちが伝わってきました。

感動的な体験ができて、旅行中の一番の思い出になりました。
本当にありがとうございました！またハワイに行くことがあれば参加したいです！！

We went quite far out on the boat, and as soon as we entered the water at the spot where the dolphins were, we encountered a pod, and it was incredibly moving!
Dolphins aren't that fast, so I was swimming alongside the same dolphin, which took quite a bit of energy. Those who weren't swimming much at the back might not have seen the dolphins as well. I worked hard to swim alongside the dolphins, so I was able to see them many times! I was very satisfied and had a great time on the boat too!

初めてイルカと一緒に泳げるという事でとても楽しみにしていました！バスの中ではお姉さんが明るくずっとお話ししてくれ楽しかったです！
船で結構沖まで行き、イルカがいるポイントで海に入りすぐ群れに遭遇しすごく感動しました！！
イルカはそんなに泳ぐのが早くないので同じイルカについて泳いでいましたので結構体力使います。後ろであまり泳いでいなかった方はイルカをそんなに見れてないかもしれません。私は頑張ってイルカについて泳いでいたので何回も見る事ができました！船でも楽しく大満足でした！！

イルカ中学　野生のイルカ＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　高速ボートでイルカ遭遇率アップ！＜少人数制／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可／日本語／ランチ付き＞

The best in the sea!! イル中最高！！

Reviewed by: Hikaru

I stayed in Hawaii for five days, and it became the most memorable day of my trip. Swimming with wild dolphins was an experience I will never forget.

Before my departure, I imagined that "wild" dolphins would be those kept in enclosures for observation, but that was not the case at all. It actually began with the task of finding a pod of truly wild dolphins. Along the way, I also encountered sea turtles and whales. Eventually, I came across a group of 50 to 60 dolphins and was able to swim alongside them, getting so close that I felt I could almost touch them. It was truly the best experience.

Additionally, there was a dedicated photographer with us during the dolphin swim. They captured not only the dolphins underwater but also the moments of us swimming together and having fun. Thanks to this, I could fully enjoy the breathtaking experience with my own eyes without worrying about taking photos. I ended up with a total of 300 amazing pictures, and the fee was only $50, which felt quite reasonable.

Although I was a bit tired from swimming and being on the boat for a long time, it was a wonderful experience. The staff were incredibly supportive, friendly, and their love for the ocean was impressive. I would definitely like to use their services again when I visit Hawaii.

ハワイに5日滞在しましたが、最も印象に残った日となりました。
野生のイルカ達と泳げたのは一生忘れられない経験となりました。

出発前の私は野生といっても生け簀に入っている観賞用のイルカを想像していましたが、一切そんなことはなく本当に野生のイルカの群れを見つける作業から始まりました。見つける道中でもウミガメやクジラに遭遇することが出来ました。やがて50,60匹のイルカの群れと遭遇し見事に一緒に泳ぐことが出来ました、触れるのではないかと思うくらいの距離への接近でした、本当に最高の経験です。

またイルカ中学校には専属のカメラマンさんがついてくださいます、水中のイルカたちはもちろん一緒に泳ぐ姿や楽しんでいるところをしっかり撮影してくださいました。お陰で撮影に専念することなく肉眼で見る迫力を終始味わうことができます。合計300枚の素晴らしい写真でしたが料金は50ドルと、かなり安く感じました。

それなりに泳ぎ、長い間船に揺られるので疲労感はありましたが素晴らしい経験でした。スタッフの皆様がとても心強く、フレンドリーで海を愛している姿が印象的でした。ハワイにいった際にはぜひまた利用したいです。

I was able to see whales several times from a distance. 遠目ですが何度もクジラを見れました

Reviewed by: みぃこ

Since it was a living creature, it depended on luck, but from a distance, I was able to see the spouting and the tail multiple times. I saw the body jump once and the tail slap once, which drew cheers from those on board.

I had heard that there were no explanations in Japanese, but this time there was a Japanese staff member on the boat who provided a simple explanation in Japanese following the English commentary. I was quite torn between this plan and another boat's plan, but I think choosing the Navatek was definitely the right decision. This boat seems to maneuver well, and it turns the bow towards the direction where the whales are spotted, allowing everyone on the deck at the front to see the same moment almost simultaneously.

Also, the sunlit surface of the sea was quite dazzling, so I thought it was essential to position ourselves with the sun behind us to see the whales.

Another boat was nearby, and it actually seemed closer to the whales, but given the direction of the sun, I think it would have been quite blinding. I believe it would have been challenging to keep focusing in that direction. Additionally, in a situation where we had to rush to the deck side to see the whales, it seemed difficult for all family members to witness the same sight. So, even though it was a bit pricey, I really felt it was worth it to choose the Navatek. However, I thought the pickup fee was a bit high. Since it wasn't far from Waikiki, I think it would have been fine to take a taxi if we had participated with multiple people.

生き物相手なので運しだいということでしたが、遠目ですが潮吹きや尻尾は何度も見れたし
体のジャンプが1回、尻尾を打ち付けるのが1回見られて船内から歓声があがっていました。

口コミで日本語での説明がないということでしたが、今回は日本人のスタッフが同船していて
英語の解説に続き日本語でも簡単な説明をしてくれていました。
もう一つの船のプランとかなり迷ったのですが、ナバテック号にして大正解だと思いました。
こちらの船は小回りが利くらしく、くじらが見えた方向に船首を向けてくれるので
デッキのある前方で目をこらしている客は全員ほぼ同じ瞬間を見られます。
また日のあたる海面はかなりまぶしいので、太陽を後ろにした位置どりをしてくれるのも
クジラを見る必須条件だと思いました。

もう一つの船も近くにいて、実際にはそちらの船の方がクジラから近かったように見えましたが
太陽の向きだったのでかなりまぶしかったんじゃないかと思います。
そちらの方向に目をこらし続けるのは大変だったと思います。
またクジラが見えるデッキ側へ急いで移動しなくてはならない状況では
同行した家族全員が同じ光景を見るのは難しかったように思いましたので
少し高かったけれどナバテック号にして本当によかったと思います。
ただ送迎料金が少し高いかなと思います。
ワイキキから距離は全然なかったので、複数人での参加だったら
タクシーで行っても問題なかったかなと思います。

小さい子供連れでも楽しめるアクティビティをと思って参加しました。
クジラもカメも見られました！
クルーも他の参加者もすべて英語圏の方々でしたが、支障なく楽しめました。
