Dolphin Tour Dolphin Junior High イルカツアー イルカ中学

Reviewed by: ミユキ

On the second day of arriving in Hawaii, I finally went on the long-awaited dolphin tour. Swimming with dolphins has been my dream since I was young. I boarded the yellow school bus of Dolphin Academy and went to meet the dolphins. The blue sky and blue sea of Hawaii provided a dreamlike experience. It felt as if I were swimming in an aquarium, like being in a painting. The color of the sea was wonderfully clear, leaving me speechless. I was able to feel a sense of unity with the beautiful dolphins that I love so much.

The tour was set up like a school, and even though it was only half a day, I felt like a student again. Our guide, Minako, was full of smiles and explained everything clearly, creating a fantastic classroom atmosphere from start to finish. Next, I am considering participating in the Manta University on the Big Island. Thank you for providing such a valuable experience.

At the end, I did get a bit seasick, but I appreciate how kind everyone was. I recommend that those who are not confident about seasickness bring motion sickness medication. It would be a shame for such a precious time to be ruined... *sigh*

ハワイに到着し2日目 待ちに待ったイルカツアー
昔からイルカと泳ぐのが私の夢。
いざ、イルカ中学の黄色いスクールバスに乗り込み
イルカに会いに行ってきました。
ハワイの青い空に青い海
夢のような体験ができました。
まるで絵画の世界にいるような、水族館の中を泳いでいるかのよう。海の色も素晴らしく透明で、言葉になりません。
イルカの美しさ 大好きなイルカと
一体感を感じる事ができました。
ツアーの設定も、学校のようで、半日でしたが、学生に戻れました。ガイドのミナコさんも笑顔が満開で、話が分かりやすく、最初から最後まで
教室の雰囲気は最高でした。
次は、ハワイ島のマンタ大学に是非参加してみたいと考えています。大変貴重な体験をさせて頂き
ありがとうございました。
また、最後は船酔いになりましたが、皆さん優しく接して頂いて感謝しています。
船酔いに自信の無い方は、酔い止めを持参される事をお勧めします。せっかくの貴重な時間が、残念な事になってしまいます、、、苦笑

I think there aren't many opportunities to ride a submarine, even if it's smaller than the underwater world in Hawaii, so I decided to participate. It's great! The kids will enjoy it too! It doesn't take much time either.

シーライフパーク・ハワイ　イルカと触れ合える人気プログラムは選べる3プラン　海の生き物への餌やり体験、イルカやアシカのショーなど充実の園内＜送迎付きプランあり＞

Interaction with dolphins! イルカとの触れ合い！

Reviewed by: sakura

We decided to go to Sea Life Park because my 6-year-old daughter expressed her wish to meet dolphins. Since it was a special opportunity, we participated with 10 family members.

It was unfortunate that my daughter was not old enough to join the program to swim with the dolphins, but she was really happy to interact with them. We purchased all three photos of her, and they are displayed at home. She happily says, "I got to shake hands with the dolphin and even gave it a kiss!" Both children and adults had a wonderful time, and we were very satisfied.

However, there was one point of concern.

I had read on the website that DVDs could also be purchased, so I planned to buy one. But when we went to the photo area, we were told that there were no DVDs available. Was a reservation required for the DVD in advance? I received explanations in Japanese on-site, and while they mentioned the photos, there was no explanation about the DVDs. Therefore, I assumed it was similar to the photos, where those who wanted them could purchase them. Since the DVD was something my child was looking forward to the most on this trip, it was disappointing that we couldn't buy it.

6歳の娘の「イルカに会いたい」との希望で、シーライフパークに行くことに。
せっかくの機会だからと、親族10名で参加しました。

イルカと一緒に泳ぐプログラムは、まだ年齢が満たなかったのが残念でしたが、
娘はイルカと触れ合えたことが本当に嬉しかったようです。
写真も娘のものは、3カット全て購入し、家で飾っています。
「イルカさんと握手♪チュもできたの～」といいながら嬉しそうに見ています。
子供も大人も、とっても素敵な時間を過ごすことができて、大満足でした。

ですが、気になった点が1つほど。

こちらのサイトで、DVDも購入できるように書いてあったので、それも購入予定
でいたのですが、写真のところに行ってみると、DVDはないとの返事でした。
DVDは先に予約などが必要だったのでしょうか？
現地で日本語で説明を受けたのですが、写真のことは言っておられましたが、
DVDのことは何も説明はありませんでした。そのため、写真と同じように、
撮られており、ほしい人が購入するのだと思っていました。
子供が今回の旅行で一番楽しみにしていたものだっただけに、DVDが購入でき
なかったのは残念でした。

Unfortunately, the weather was rainy, and it was quite cold to enter the pool.
But I really got to touch the dolphins and even kiss and shake hands with them!
I felt like I became the dolphin show lady I dreamed of as a child!
With this cheaper plan, there are only two options for shaking hands and kissing, and you can't swim with the dolphins or have them push you while swimming.
However, there is plenty of time, and since it's a small group, I'm satisfied.
The instructor can speak some Japanese, although it's limited.
The park is small for spending a whole day here, so I think it's a good idea to combine this with other plans.

あいにく天候は雨で、プールに入るのはさすがに寒かったのです。
でも本当にイルカに触れてキスや握手ができました！
小さい頃の夢、イルカショーのお姉さんになれた気分です！
こちらの安価な方のプランでは握手とキスの二種類だけで、イルカと一緒に泳いだり、足を押してもらって泳ぐことはできません。
でも時間は十分ありますし、少人数で出来るので満足です。
インストラクターの方も片言ではありますが、日本語が通じます。
丸一日ここで過ごすには狭い園内ですので、他と合わせてプランを立てるのもいいと思います。

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＞

It was moving! 感動でした！

Reviewed by: Shimakko

On my first trip to the Big Island, I participated in a manta ray snorkeling tour on the night of the supermoon! I got lost because I mixed up the meeting place, but the captain found us, and we were able to join the group safely. The warm words from our guide really helped us feel at ease.

Both the captain and the guide were very efficient, and since the tour company had a private space at the harbor, we were able to change into our wetsuits while sitting down, which made everything smooth. Once we were ready, we boarded the boat and set off immediately.

It was cloudy when we left the harbor, but we were able to catch a glimpse of the sunset as we spent about 40 minutes on the boat before arriving at the snorkeling point. I learned that there are different types of manta rays, and the one we can see around the Big Island is the "Oniitomakie," which can grow as large as 6 meters.

We quickly adjusted our snorkeling masks and entered the water. Even though it was snorkeling, we could rely on the buoyancy of the wetsuits and just stay near the light that attracted plankton, so I think even those who can't swim or are not comfortable in the water can enjoy this activity.

Within about 5 to 10 minutes, manta rays came to us! They opened their mouths wide, floated on their backs to take in plankton, and kept circling back to us. It was amazing to see them up close, even though we weren't allowed to touch them; they came so close that it felt like they were bumping into us! It was truly moving! Seeing wild manta rays at such a close distance, even closer than at an aquarium, felt like a dream! We were able to see two smaller manta rays and two medium-sized ones repeatedly, so we got to enjoy watching four of them multiple times.

After the tour, we were treated to warm cocoa, snacks, and cereal bars to take care of our bodies. On the way back, we cruised under the full moon! It was the best tour where we could experience a sense of unity with nature!

今回初めてのハワイ島旅行で、スーパームーンの夜にマンタシュノーケルのツアーへ参加しました！！
待ち合わせ場所を間違え迷ってしまったのですが、船長が私たちを発見してくれ無事合流、ガイドさんの大変暖かい言葉にとても救われました。
船長もガイドさんも手際がよく、又ツアー会社がハーバーにプライベートスペースを持っていたためウェットスーツへの着替えも椅子に座ってできたためスムーズ。支度を済ませたらボートに乗り込みすぐに出発。
ハーバーから曇っていたけどちょっと見れた夕焼けを背に40分程度船に乗りシュノーケルポイントに到着。
「マンタ」と言っても種類があるそうで、ハワイ島で見ることが出来るのは「オニイトマキエイ」というマンタで、大きなものは６ｍもあるそうです。
私たちもシュノーケルマスクを合わせてすぐに着水。シュノーケルと言ってもウェットスーツの浮力を使い、プランクトンを引き寄せるライトに捕まっているだけでよいので、泳げない人でも極端な話水が苦手な人でも出来るアクティビティだと思います。

開始5～１０分程度ですぐに私たちのところもマンタが来てくれました！！
大きく口を空けて仰向けになってプランクトンを取り込みくるりと回りまた仰向けになり・・を繰り返して何度も来てくれました！！
触ってはいけないのですが、向こうからぶつかってくる程目の前で見ることが出来て、とても感動的です！！水族館のガラスに張り付くよりも近い距離で野生のマンタが見れるなんて夢みたいでした！
私たちの所には２匹の小さめのマンタと２匹の中くらいのマンタが繰り返し来てくれて、４匹を何度も見ることが出来ました☆

終わった後は暖かいココアとお菓子やシリアルバーで身体に気を遣っていただきました。帰りは満月の下をクルーズして帰りました！自然との一体感を味わえる最高のツアーでした☆

Hawaii Nautical 2-Hour Waikiki Turtle Snorkel Sail - Morning & Afternoon Tours [Apr-Nov]

Turtles! TURTLES! MORE TURTLES!!!

Reviewed by: Hawaii Kitty

When they say "Turtles Guaranteed", they are not joking. After a quick sail from the harbor to the snorkel (about 15 to 20 minutes) we dived in to see like six or seven large Hawaiian green sea turtles relaxing beneath us. It was absolutely incredible :D

The spot they took us to is this amazing location where turtles like to congregate and chill out while they get their shells cleaned off by schools of fish. Since we went on the morning snorkel, we beat the crowds and got to swim and snorkel leisurely without any fuss.

I didn't think to bring a GoPro or an underwater camera, but if you have one, or can get your hands on one, DO IT! The photo opportunities are amazing. The turtles like to lazily swim around and they are just so photogenic.

Great tour! Can't wait to go again!!!

Luxury Ko Olina Sunset Cruise with Snorkeling, Dinner Buffet & Premium Cocktails - Ocean Joy Cruises

The best sunset on Oahu!

Reviewed by: Lahn Bahn

This sail packs in so much in the perfect amount of time. Not only do you get to sail along the west coast of Oahu, but you get to visit a great snorkel spot, eat your fill of delicious food and guzzle down lots of drinks!

I have done a lot of regular dinner cruises in Hawaii and in other states, but this one is definitely the most unique and you totally get a great bang for your buck. Since you are on the west side, you are literally right there as the sun dips below the horizon, and with a steady stream of drinks and as much food as you can eat, there isn't anything better!!!

The drive is like 40 minutes from Waikiki, but the transportation was comfortable and on-time. Great option if you don't want to drive and definitely a "must do" if everyone in your party is planning on knocking back a few.

Be sure to bring some cash to buy the photos that they take of you. The photographer is fantastic and takes TONS of pictures throughout the cruise, both in and out of the water. They put it on a USB drive for you and that way you don't have to worry about snapping shots and can just focus on having fun ^_^

Best. Dinner. Snorkel. Sunset. Cruise. EVAR!

I wanted to see the dolphins!! 会いたかったイルカ!!

Reviewed by: ユウスケ

This was my first time participating, and since it was our honeymoon in Hawaii, I decided to join because I heard there was a place to swim with dolphins. I had been to Hawaii a few times before, but this was a special occasion.

Swimming with dolphins has been a dream of mine since childhood, and I was nervous the day before, but once I got on the bus, the powerful staff's stories were so entertaining that my sleepiness and anxiety disappeared!

Since the dolphins are wild, there’s no guarantee you’ll see them, so I was excited as we boarded the boat. Just five minutes after boarding, we suddenly encountered a pod of dolphins. The clear sea and the dolphins swimming together were truly mystical, and I experienced emotions like never before. I was overwhelmed to have this experience three times!

The program was already more than enough, but during the snorkeling afterward, I was able to see many turtles and Hawaiian fish, and I even got to try paddle surfing, which I had always wanted to do. I was very satisfied!

The hamburger for lunch was also very delicious! It was impressive how everyone came together for the final hula dance, creating a lively atmosphere.

I want to bring my children here someday! It became a wonderful memory!

今回初めての参加でした、新婚旅行でのハワイ、ハワイには何回かは行っていたのですがイルカと泳げる所があると言うことで新婚旅行だったので初めて参加しようと決めました。
小さい頃からの夢、イルカと泳ぐ事が出来ると前日から緊張していたのですが、バスに入ったらパワフルなスタッフの方の話がとても面白く眠さと緊張も吹き飛びました!!

イルカは野生なので100%出会えるわけではないと言うことでドキドキしながらボートに乗船、乗船してから5分後いきなりイルカに出会える事が出来ました、透き通る海にイルカの群れがなんとも神秘的で今までにない感動を味わいました、それも三回も味わう事が出来て感無量でした。

これまでのプログラムでも充分でしたが、その後のシュノーケルでは亀やハワイの魚と沢山見るとことができ、一度やってみたかったパドルサーフィンにもチャレンジ出来て大満足でした!!

ランチのハンバーガーもとてもおいしく!!最後みんなでやるフラダンスで一致団結して盛り上がったのも印象的でした。

子供が出来たら連れていきたいと思います!!とてもよい思い出になりました！

Reviewed by: YOSHIYUKI　NITTA

I had been searching for a tour where I could see and swim with dolphins in the ocean, and I finally found one. I was truly moved when I spotted a pod of dolphins swimming. Moreover, I was able to hear their calls, which was a very precious experience.

The underwater world was amazing, but the view of the mountains, landscapes, and sky from the surface was also incredibly beautiful. I was able to fully immerse myself in nature by diving and floating on my back.

After dolphin watching, there was free time for snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, and canoeing, allowing everyone to enjoy their time in the ocean. I was thrilled to swim alongside a sea turtle, and it was so cute.

Unfortunately, there was a sudden issue with another guest that required us to return to the port, so I was disappointed that I couldn't enjoy the anticipated BBQ on the boat or the hula lesson. However, I felt reassured by the crew's quick response and believe this is a tour I can participate in with confidence.

I would love to join again if the opportunity arises. The taro burger was also delicious.

海の中でイルカを見たり、泳げたり出来るツアーをずっと探していてやっと出会えたツアーです。
イルカの群れを見つけ泳ぐ姿を目にした時は本当に感動しました。
しかもイルカの鳴き声も聞くことが出来て、とても貴重な体験をさせていただきました。
水の中の世界も素晴らしかったけど、水面から見える山や、風景、空の景色も最高にきれいで、もぐったり、仰向けで浮かんだりと大自然を身体いっぱいに感じることが出来ました。
イルカウォッチングの後にはフリーのシュノーケルの時間やサップ、カヌー等のアクティビティもあり、海あそびをそれぞれが思い思いに、楽しむ時間もあり楽しかったです。
その時にウミガメも真横で一緒に泳ぐことが出来てうれしかったし、とてもかわいかったです。
途中他のお客さんにトラブルがあり急遽港に戻ることになったので、楽しみにしていた船上ＢＢＱやフラレッスンが楽しめなかったのがとても残念でしたが、その時のクルーの人達の迅速な対応を見て安心して参加出来るツアーだと思いました。
また機会があれば参加したいと思います。

The best tour. 最高のツアー

Reviewed by: mame

I participated in a tour at the prestigious Dolphin University with a friend. The tour guide was very energetic and cheerful from start to finish. It was mentioned that it might take some time to find wild dolphins depending on the day, but just about five minutes after getting on the boat, we spotted dolphins! When I jumped off the boat to see them, I was moved to see a large group of about 30 dolphins swimming gracefully. Just when I thought it was over, the guide suggested we search a bit more. So, we got back on the boat and, while looking for dolphins again, we found them once more! The boat was brought close, and when I jumped in, they were really close!! It felt like I was swimming alongside the dolphins. I believe we were able to see the dolphins up close thanks to the guide who drove the boat ahead of the dolphins and gave us directions. Even after getting back on the boat, we continued to look for dolphins, and they swam close to the boat. I was constantly excited, as they were within reach if I stretched out my hand.

Next was the sea turtle exploration!
As an amateur, I had a hard time spotting where the sea turtles were, but when the guide pointed one out, I confirmed it was really swimming there. When I jumped in again, I was able to get close enough to touch it. Additionally, I saw colorful fish while snorkeling, making it a packed snorkeling experience. The fun didn’t stop there; we also got to experience kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding as part of the physical education class. For lunch, we had cheeseburgers, and we wrapped up with a hula dance, making it an incredibly full and amazing tour. I would love to participate again when I come back to Hawaii.

友達と2人で名門イルカ大学に参加させていただぎした。ツアーガイドのお姉さんは初めから最後までとても元気で明るく対応してくださいました。野生のイルカのため日によっては見つかるまでに時間がかかるということでしたが、船に乗って5分ほどしたところでイルカ発見！船から飛び降り中を見ると30頭ほどのイルカの大群が優雅に泳いでおりとても感動しました。ここで終わりかと思いきやもう少し探しましょう。とのことで再度、船の上にあがりイルカを探しているとまた発見！近くまで船を近づけてもらい飛び降りるとほんとに近い！！イルカの群れと一緒に泳いでるという感覚でした。イルカが泳ぐさきを先回りで船を運転し、指示をくれるガイドさんがいるおかげでこんなに近くでイルカが見れたのだと思います。また船に上がってもイルカを探し、船の近くにイルカがよってきて泳いでいました。ほんとに手を伸ばせば届く距離の位置で常にテンションが上がりっぱなしでした。

次に海亀散策！
素人目ではどこに海亀がいるのかなかなか見つけられませんでしたが、ガイドさんがいるー！とのことで確認すると、ほんとに泳いでました。また飛び込むとこれもほんとに触れる位置まで近づくことができました。その他にもカラフルな魚をシュノーケルしながら見れ盛りだくさんのシュノーケルでした。まだまだ終わらず体育の授業とこのとでカヤックとスタンドアップパドルも経験でき、お昼ご飯チーズバーガーがでて、最後はフラダンスでしめるというほんとに盛りだくさんのツアーで最高のツアーだったと思います。またハワイに来る時は参加したいと思いました。

Scooter with fishes and turtles

Since you're scootering around in a bay, you won't have the beauty of any coral reefs but bread feeding will attract the fish and the experience as a whole is alot of fun. You can snorkel around and if you have an underwater camera like I did, you can take some really fun pictures. There are scuba diving lessons going on in the area as well as the water jet pack session. The captain and the diving crew were fun and helpful. Your safety is the #1 thing on their minds. The water was warm enough and even though we were on a boat with no English speaking people, we all had a good time.

Reviewed by: あいう

On the third day in Hawaii, I participated in a tour. I joined hoping to see dolphins, but unfortunately, I couldn't see any today... It seems quite difficult to encounter wild dolphins. I think it's better to be prepared for that when you sign up. However, I was able to see a sea turtle while snorkeling, which was great. We snorkeled in fairly deep water. I'm not very good at swimming, so I was a bit scared at first, but it was fine since we were in a group. I think it's reassuring that the staff keeps a close watch on us. There was also a photographer who took pictures both on the boat and in the water. However, it costs about $60 to purchase the USB. The boat to the dolphin viewing area rocks quite a bit, so if you're prone to seasickness, it's best to take some motion sickness medication beforehand. Lastly, you can enjoy a cheeseburger made by the captain, which was delicious. They also perform hula dancing. I was really disappointed not to see dolphins, but I had fun seeing the sea turtles and fish.

It was much more beautiful to see the fish and turtles swimming up close than just through snorkeling, and I was truly moved. They took beautiful photos and videos for me, and I couldn't help but buy the video, especially since it captured the turtles swimming beautifully for a long time. I also appreciated that they sent the purchased photos and videos via email. The diving guides were all very kind. However, while they could speak some Japanese, there were moments when communication was a bit challenging. There were only two underwater scooters available on one boat, so while waiting, you could go snorkeling, but the timing for getting in and out wasn't very clear, so you had to be careful not to bump into the divers. You could say it was a bit haphazard, or you could say it was free-spirited, but overall, I had a great time. It became a wonderful memory!

魚やカメが間近で泳ぐところを、シュノーケリングで見るよりも何倍もきれいに見れて、感動しました。写真と動画もきれいに撮ってもらい、特に動画にはカメの泳ぐところがきれいに長く映っていたので、思わず買ってしまいました。買った写真と動画は、データでメールに送ってくれるのもありがたかったです。案内のダイバーの方々もみんな親切でした。ただ、日本語がぺらぺらかというとそうではなく、少し意思疎通が難しいところもありました。水中スクーターは1つの船に2つしかないので、待っている間はシュノーケリングをしてもよいのですが、入ったりあがったりするタイミングがはっきりしていないので、自分で気をつけていないとダイバーの人とぶつかりそうになってしまいます。悪くいえば適当、良くいえば自由ですが、全体的にとても楽しかったです。いい思い出になりました！

An amazing tour with manta rays coming up close! マンタが大接近で感動のツアー！

Reviewed by: misaloha

I was very satisfied overall with my first day upon arriving on the Big Island!

I took a taxi from my hotel in Kona to the meeting point. I had called ahead to ask for the exact location, so I had the driver drop me off at the restroom near the North (not South) parking area, and I quickly found the yellow and blue tent nearby. The meeting point is key for those gathering on-site. I arranged for the same taxi to pick me up for the return trip, and I made it back safely.

The tour had all Japanese participants, with one Japanese-speaking instructor and three local staff members, all of whom were very friendly, which was reassuring. We traveled quite a distance at high speed to the manta ray encounter point, but since we were on a rubber boat, we could straddle the edge and feel the wind like on a banana boat, which was a lot of fun. It felt like we were getting a bonus marine sports experience!

Since it was still bright when we arrived, we were able to snorkel until sunset, but there weren't many fish. The water was clear and beautiful, though. Once the sun finally set, the mantas came close to gather under the lights, attracted by the plankton! It was an emotional experience to see them up close! We weren't allowed to touch them (due to the risk of infection), but they came so close that they brushed against my legs several times! This experience is probably unique to just a few places in the world. It seems to be a famous tour globally.

Lastly, it's definitely a good idea to take motion sickness medication beforehand! We took it in advance, so we didn't feel any nausea at all, but other participants seemed to get quite seasick and couldn't get in the water, while some were just watching from above... Don't forget to take it!

ハワイ島到着初日に予定していました、総合的に大満足です！

コナのホテルからタクシーで現地集合にしました、事前に電話して詳しい場所をきいておいたので、運転手さんにもノース（サウスではなく）パーキングのそばのRestroomでおろしてもらい、近くにある黄色と青のテントは直ぐに見つかりました。現地集合の方はそこがポイントです。帰りも同じタクシーにきてもらい無事に帰れました。

ツアーは全員日本人の参加、日本語のインストラクターさんお一人と現地スタッフ3人皆さん感じの良い方で安心です。マンタ遭遇ポイントまではかなりの距離をハイスピードで向かいますが、ゴムボートなので外の枠にまたがって、バナナボートのように風を感じてとても楽しめました。まるでマリンスポーツもついてるようでお得！？

到着後まだ明るかったので、日が沈むまでスノーケリングできました、でもあまりお魚はいなかったです。海は透き通って綺麗でしたが。やっと日が沈むとライトの下に集まってくるプランクトンを目当てにマンタが寄ってきました！！！大接近で感動！！こちらからは触ってはいけないので（感染症の恐れあり）見るだけでしたが、あまりにも近くに寄ってくるので何度が自分の足に触れてきました！この体験は世界でもここぐらいではないでしょうか。世界的にも有名なツアーのようです。

最後に、必ず酔い止めは飲んでおいたほうがいいです！私たちは事前に飲んだので全く酔いませんでしたが、他の参加者の方はかなり酔われているようで海に入れず、上から見ている方も。。。是非お忘れなく！

Recommendation オススメ

Reviewed by: ニャー

On this tour, we went in search of the common dolphin. It seems that encountering bottlenose dolphins, which appear in aquarium shows, is quite difficult. However, it turned out to be a lucky day for us, as we were able to see not only common dolphins but also bottlenose dolphins.

このツアーではハシナガイルカを探しに行きます。水族館のショーに登場するバンドウイルカはなかなか遭遇することが難しいとのことでした。私たちが行った日は当たりだったようでハシナガイルカだけでなく、バンドウイルカにも会うことがでいました。

Kona Manta Ray Snorkel & Night Dive Tour at Keauhou Bay - Sea Paradise

The greatest/worst activity of the trip

Reviewed by: Mountain Man

I'll be honest, overall I didn't have a great time on this trip. We sailed off late and missed the sunset which we were supposed to enjoy, and then spent 15 minutes "sailing" in a circle getting tossed about in the waves in the boat which was very unenjoyable. I wouldn't call it snorkeling either. After an hour of getting tossed around in the waves, you get in your wet suit and get your snorkel mask and get in the water to hold on to a long float, getting beat up by the waves (some more) while playing footsie with your neighbor. Meanwhile, your float is drifting in the current towards the plethera of other boats in the surrounding area leaving you wondering if you're going to get run over or not. Seriously, our floating group ended up almost tangled in another boats anchor line. It was incredibly unsafe.

Why am I rating it a 3 with the description being very negative? Well it's because it's the most incredible thing to see Manta's swimming INCHES from you. We had quite a few come by and it was spectacular to witness for those few seconds.

ノースショア・シャーク・アドベンチャー　迫力満点！至近距離で野生のサメを見学 ＜送迎可＞

If you can't swim or are afraid of the ocean, it's better to avoid it. 泳げない人、海が怖い人はやめた方がいいです。

Reviewed by: ねたろう

I can barely swim and I'm too scared to dive even with a snorkel, but my wife is a diver and wanted to do some ocean activities together, so I thought this might work out... and signed up.

The transportation and local arrangements were normal, without any particular issues. We took off our shoes and boarded the boat with about 20 people, of which only about six were Japanese. Along the way, we read a Japanese lecture file.

The sea at the North Shore was somewhat rough, and the boat rocked quite a bit. The Japanese student group that was with us was almost seasick. If you're prone to motion sickness, it's better to skip this. Even after we got into the cage, the waves were rough and it was tough.

I later heard that the North Shore is calm only around July to August. We were able to see sharks up close, so it's a good activity for those who like that, but personally, it was extremely challenging for me... I was overestimating my abilities. My wife was very happy, though.

私はほぼ泳げず、シュノーケルでも怖くて潜れませんが
嫁はダイバーなのですが、何か一緒に海のアクティビティをやりたいとの事で
これだったら何とかなるか。。。と申し込みました。

送迎や現地での対応は、特に問題はなく普通です。
裸足になって船に乗り込み、20人ほどで沖へ行くんですが日本人は6名ほど。
途中で日本語のレクチャーファイルを読みます。

ノースショアの海はそこそこ時化ており、かなり船が揺れました。
一緒に行ってた日本の学生グループもほぼグロッキーに。
船酔いに弱い人はやめとく方がいいです。
順番が来て檻に入ってからも、波は荒れて苦しいです。

後で聞いたのですが、ノースショアは7～8月くらいだけらしいです、おとなしいのは。
ちゃんと鮫は間近で見えたので、好きな人にはいいアクティビティですが
個人的には非常にきつかったです。。。身の程知らずでしたね。
嫁はたいそうよろこんでおりました。

Dolphin & Turtle Experience!! イルカ&亀 体験‼︎

Reviewed by: Sono

I participated on September 26th. The weather was very nice.

It was an early morning, but the guide was very energetic, so it's better to prepare yourself for not being able to sleep on the bus (I slept like a log on the way back).

We were able to see a lot of dolphins, including baby dolphins, which was incredibly moving. It was my first time seeing them up close. At first, I wasn't used to snorkeling and swimming in the ocean, and I could barely keep up with the guide, but I gradually got the hang of it.

The guide would call out things like "Look down!" so I think it would be easy to spot the dolphins when they appear.

After seeing the dolphins, we swam in another location to see turtles. That place had crystal-clear water and many tropical fish, making it very beautiful.

I was told not to touch the turtles, but since they swam towards me, I was desperately trying to avoid them. I was moved to see a turtle taking a breath at the surface right in front of me.

While moving by boat, I felt lucky to encounter a pod of dolphins.

Regarding what to bring when participating, I think it's best to take only the essentials. Since water splashes into the boat, it's a good idea to keep your belongings in a waterproof bag.

Also, I recommend taking motion sickness medication (a few people felt unwell on the way back).

Of course, meeting the dolphins was amazing, but I was really glad I participated because I got to snorkel in such beautiful waters.

9 月 26 日に参加してきました。天候もとてもよかったです。
朝早かったですが、ガイドの人がとても元気いっぱいで、行きのバスの中で寝ることはできないと考えておいたほうが良いです(帰りは爆睡でした)。
イルカはたくさん見ることができました。赤ちゃんイルカもいてすごく感動しました。あんなに近くで見たのは初めてでした。最初はシュノーケルと海で泳ぐことになれておらず、ガイドの人についていくのが精いっぱいでしたが、段々と慣れてきました。
ガイドの方が「下みて～」などの声かけをしてくれるので、イルカが出現したら見ることは簡単だと思います。
イルカを見た後に、亀を見るために別の場所で泳ぎました。その場所は水も透き通っていて、熱帯魚もたくさんいてとてもきれいでした。
亀には触れないようにと言われましたが、亀が自分の方に泳いでくるので、よけるので必死でした。海面で息継ぎをする亀を、目の前でみられて感動しました。
ボートで移動中にも、イルカの群れに遭遇できて得をした気分でした。
参加するときの荷物についてですが、必要最低限のものを持って行ったほうがいいと思います。船の中に水しぶきが入ってくるので、防水の袋に入れておいたほうがいいです。　　　　
あと、酔い止めは飲んでおいた方が良いと思います(帰りの船で数名気分が悪くなっていたので）。
イルカに会えるのももちろんですが、きれいな海でシュノーケルができたので、参加して本当に良かったと思いました。

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

海亀と泳ぐ

Reviewed by: おさる

カタマランはワイキキビーチから出航するため、アクセスがとても便利。
ポイントで停まり、海に入るとすぐ目の前に海亀と魚たちが泳ぎ廻っていました。
シュノーケリングを充分堪能し、ボートに戻ると、水とサンドイッチのサービス。
その後、ワイキキビーチ沖をクルージング。
目の見張るような海の蒼さに大感動。この値段以上の価値のあるツアーでした。
参加する際、泳ぎが苦手な方はライフジャケットを準備する必要があります。備え付けはヌードルだけでした。また、クルージングの際、風を切って走行するのでジャケット持参がお勧めです。

The dolphins were right in front of me, so moving!! ✨ イルカが目の前で感動！！✨

Reviewed by: yasu

I participated in a tour of the prestigious Dolphin University with a friend! I was excited because we were supposed to swim with wild dolphins and turtles!

In the morning, I was a bit anxious because the meeting time was early! But I was relieved that we arrived on time! However, since there were explanations on the bus, I stayed awake and listened seriously to the information!

Although I was feeling a bit dazed on the way, everyone on the boat was cheerful!! The staff were really energetic!!

We were able to meet the dolphins in less than five minutes!! They were so close that I felt like I could reach out and touch them, which was very moving!

At the end, they taught us how to do the hula on the boat, and it was so much fun d(^_^o) It was a very friendly tour with everyone! Just be careful not to play too much, as you'll need to conserve your energy to enjoy it fully! ☻

友達と2人で名門イルカ大学のツアーに参加させてもらいました！
野生のイルカとカメと泳げると言う事だったので楽しみでした！

朝、集合時間が早かったので不安でした！
でも時間通りに行けたので一安心！
ただ行きのバスで説明事項などあるので
向かうバスは寝ずに話を真剣に聞きました！

意識朦朧と向かったのですが、
船の上はみんな和気あいあいでした！！
スタッフさんたちがまず元気！！

イルカさん達には5分もかからず会う事が出来ました！！
手が届いちゃうんじゃないかってとこまで近くにいてとても感動しました！

最後の船上でフラを教えてくれるのですが、とても楽しかったですd(^_^o)
みんなで和気あいあいしたツアーでした！
ただ遊びすぎて体力は温存して挑まないと
辛いと思います！☻

It wasn't nearby, but I was able to see dolphins. There are also plenty of hula and water activities, so I think it's great for when you want to enjoy a variety of things. But what about when you're specifically aiming to see just the dolphins???

近くではありませんでしたがイルカさん見れました
フラやウォーターアクティビティーも充実しているので、いろいろ楽しみたい時にはいいと思います
イルカちゃんだけが狙いの時はどうでしょうか？？？
