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>

It was fun. 楽しかったです

Reviewed by: akotomu

I love Hawaii and go there 1 to 2 times every year. This was my second time participating in the activity of swimming with wild dolphins. Last time (with a different company), I was able to swim with a pod of dolphins, which was incredibly moving, and this time I enrolled in Dolphin University.

Not only can you swim with dolphins, but you can also enjoy malasadas, see sea turtles, and if you wish, you can do kayaking as well (they prioritize your preferences without any pressure). I was truly satisfied.

On the boat, they played the ukulele and sang songs, and performed hula dance; it was the best experience I've had so far. I think everyone, from first-timers to repeat visitors, can enjoy this.

At the end, the pod of dolphins escorted us back to the harbor and showed us some jumps. Above all, the staff were all very warm, and I definitely want to participate again next year.

ハワイ大好きで、毎年1~2回は行っています。
野生のイルカと泳ぐアクティビティも今回で2回目でした。
前回も(違う会社でしたが)イルカの群れと泳ぐことができ、すごく感動し今回はイルカ大学に入学しました。
イルカと泳ぐだけでなく、マラサダが食べられたり、海ガメがみれたり希望すればカヤック等も出来て(無理強いすることなく希望を優先にしてくれます)本当に大満足でした。
船上でウクレレを演奏して歌を歌ってくれたり、フラダンスを踊ってくれたり、今まで参加した中でも1番でした。
ハワイ初めての方から、リピーターの方まで皆さんが楽しめると思います。
最後はイルカの群れが港まで送ってくれ、ジャンプも見せてくれました。
何より、スタッフの方が皆さんあたたかくて来年も是非参加させて頂きたいと思います。

Somewhat disappointed

Reviewed by: birthday trip

Had mechanical problems before our scheduled time and we got started 15 minutes late but still got back in time for the next group to go. Didn't get the full hour. Saw some fish but not as many as expected. Saw more fish snorkeling. Was interesting to have someone show and tell what creatures were there.

It was really great! However... とっても良かったです!が・・・

Reviewed by: momi

I participated alone, and at the time I joined, there was no one else participating alone. However, the guide really took care of me, which made me happy. I was able to swim with dolphins just as the title promised, and I also encountered sea turtles.

On the boat during the transfers, the staff really got everyone excited, and I didn't have a moment of boredom; it truly became a wonderful memory. Although there were only Japanese participants, I felt very embarrassed as no one gave a tip despite how well we were treated.

There are cultural differences, but since I was in America, experiencing the local culture is part of the joy of traveling. I hope people can understand that it's not about thinking "tips are a waste," but rather experiencing a culture where showing appreciation with money is valued. If you enjoyed your experience, please be sure to give a tip!

私は一人で参加したんですが、私が参加した時は、他に一人で参加した人はいませんでした。ですが、ガイドさんはとっても私のことをケアしてくれて、うれしかったです。
まさしくイルカと一緒に泳ぐ事ができたし、タイトルどおりウミガメとも出会えました。
移動中の船上では、スタッフの方が思いっきり盛り上げてくれましたし、暇することも無く本当にいい思い出になりました。
日本人ばかりの参加だったのですが、こんなに良くしてくれたのに、誰一人チップをあげている人がいなくて、いち日本人としてとても恥ずかしくなりました。
文化の違いもありますが、アメリカに行ったんだから現地の文化を堪能する事も旅の醍醐味ですので「チップ代もったいない」と思わず、気持ちをお金で見せる文化だという事を体感してほしいです。
参加した方は、良かったと思ったら是非チップをあげてください!!!

Dolphin Junior High School Experience Report イルカ中学体験記

Reviewed by: とっとこ山の山太郎

This time, I participated with my brother. I was surprised that the tour start time changed from 9:00 to 6:00 the day before, but it turned out to be better to start at 6:00 for the dolphins' sleeping schedule and the scenery of the mountains on the West Coast. At the dolphin spot, we encountered a pod of about 50 dolphins and had fun swimming with them. The sound of the dolphins was impressive. We also got to swim with turtles. Since the instructor had given us cheese beforehand, we were able to see the fish up close as they went for the bait.

There were about five turtles near their habitat, and we swam alongside them, but they seemed used to people and swam leisurely.

The travel time from Waikiki to the West Coast was about 1 hour. I think we spent about 2 hours out on the water. The instructor had prepared free motion sickness medication for us on the bus beforehand, so I was able to enjoy snorkeling without getting seasick. We arrived back in Waikiki around 11:30.

I hope to challenge myself with Dolphin University next time.

今回は、兄弟での参加となりました
前日に9:00ツアースタート予定が6:00になりびっくりしましたが、イルカの睡眠時間と西海岸の山肌の景色が6:00スタートの方が良いそうなので結果良かったです。イルカスポットでは、50頭くらいの群れと遭遇。し、一緒に泳ぐことができ楽しかったです。イルカの鳴き声が印象的でした。また、亀とも一緒に泳ぐことができました。インストラクターに事前にチーズをもらっていたので、餌に食いつく魚をまじかで見ることができました。
亀は住処付近に5匹程度おり、並走して泳ぎましたが、人慣れしているのか、のんびり泳いでいました。

ワイキキから西海岸までの所要時間は1h。海に出ていた時間は2hくらいだったと思います。事前に行きのバスでインストラクターさんに無料で酔い止め薬を準備してもらえていたので船酔いをすることもなくシュノーケルを楽しむことができました。ワイキキ到着は11:30くらいでした。

次回イルカ大学に挑戦できればと思います。

3-Hour Ko Olina Snorkel Cruise & Dolphin Watching Tour with Deli Lunch & Drinks

Beautiful Day in Ko Olina

Reviewed by: Marisa

Get ready for a fun time on this catamaran! The dolphins are a plenty and are in their hibernating season so they stay close to the coast. While you don't get in the water surrounded by dolphins, it keeps them safe, so it's good for everyone. There were so many kinds of fish and it was fun to swim through them. It was a nice cool day, and the dolphins were definitely out there. They got nice and close to the boat! The snorkel was amazing. By lunchtime, I was looking forward to food. The Captain is a fine cook and knows his way around a boat so it's double bonus for us. We had the tasty teriyaki chicken sandwich, which I can proudly give 5 stars! Try the Naked Pirate drink. It's awesome! The crew on the boat was friendly and managed to keep it fun for everyone even with a bunch of little kids running around. It's family-friendly and they made sure those kids stayed safe. This catamaran sail is worth every penny and then some. I highly recommend!

It's better than last time... 前回よりは。。

Reviewed by: UAUA

This was my second time participating, so I boarded the ship feeling reassured that it would be fun. However, the crew's energy and the differences in the ship I boarded meant it wasn't as exciting as I had expected. If I hadn't had the first experience, I would have rated it as enjoyable.

However, if this had been my first time, I might not consider repeating it.

今回は2度目の参加のため、きっと楽しいと安心しながら乗船しました。
ただ、なんというかクルーの方々のテンションや乗り込んだ船の違いもあって思っていたほど盛り上がりませんでしたが、一度目の経験がなければ楽しいという評価になったはずです。

ただ、今回が初めてであればリピートはしないかもしれないです。

Dolphin University is the best!!! イルカ大学最高!!!

Reviewed by: madoka

I was worried about the weather, but we were blessed with very nice weather, to the point where I was concerned about getting sunburned.

On the day of the event, the schedule was so packed that I barely had time to sleep. We had about an hour of travel time, but it was enjoyable thanks to the lively talk from the student council president.

Also, it was lucky to have Leonard's malasadas along the way. Honestly, I wanted to buy about three of them at my own expense. More than half of the participants rented wetsuits, and of course, I rented one too. It helped prevent sunburn, and since I'm not a strong swimmer, the added buoyancy was a great help.

They also provided zippers so we could take home cheeseburgers, which was very convenient. The dolphins were a bit far away, but we were excited to spot a pod. Fortunately, we also got to see baby sea turtles, which made me very happy.

I truly understood why it's called Ryugu-jo (Dragon Palace). I definitely want to participate again next time. Thank you for the wonderful time!

天気が心配でしたが、大変良い天気に恵まれ日焼けが心配なほどでした。
当日は、暇で寝る暇もないほどのスケジュールです。
移動中1時間ほどありましたが、生徒会長の軽快なトークの説明で楽しい時間でした。
また、途中レナーズのマラサダはラッキーでした。
正直実費で3個ぐらい買いたいぐらいでした。
参加者の半分以上がウェットスーツをレンタルしてました。
もちろん私もレンタルしました。
日焼け防止にもなるし、泳ぎが得意ではないので浮力がまして大変助かりました。チーズバーガーも持ち帰りが出来るようにジッパーを用意してくれてたので助かりました。
イルカは少し遠かったですが群れを発見して興奮でした。ラッキーなことに海がめの赤ちゃんにも会えて大変嬉しかったです。
本当に竜宮城いう名が分かりました。
是非、次回も参加させていただきたいと思いました。
最高の時間をありがとうございました。

The dolphins and sea turtles were cute. イルカとウミガメ可愛かったです。

Reviewed by: タケ&ユカ

The dolphin middle school was canceled for various reasons, and we were upgraded to Dolphin University for free, so the following is a review of Dolphin University.

● Positive Points
Thank you to all the friendly staff who worked hard to support everyone until we saw the dolphins.

Although the time was short, it was great to see wild dolphins and sea turtles up close.

I was also quite happy to be able to eat Leonard's famous malasadas in Hawaii.

● Negative Points
I was very anxious because the bus was quite late for the morning pickup time. When I called the hotel front desk to confirm, I was informed that "the bus seems to have just arrived at the hotel," but the bus had not yet arrived at the pickup location, which made me even more anxious. It came a few minutes later, though...

I purchased a lot of photos, but most of them were of people I didn't know, and there weren't many photos of us, so I felt that $60 was expensive.

イルカ中学は諸事情で中止となり、イルカ大学に無料でランクアップになった為、下記はイルカ大学のレビューになります。


●良かった点
参加者全員がイルカを見るまで凄く頑張ってサポートしてくれたフレンドリーなスタッフの皆さん、ありがとうございました。

時間は短かったですが、結構近くで野生のイルカやウミガメを見ることが出来て良かったです。

ハワイで有名なレナーズのマラサダが食べられたのも結構嬉しかったです。


●悪かった点
朝のピックアップ時間にバスがかなり遅れた為、非常に不安になりました。ホテルのフロントから電話して確認したら『今、ホテルに到着したようです。』とご連絡頂いたのにピックアップ場所にまだバスは来ておらず、更に不安になりました。その後、数分後に来ましたが…

購入した写真の枚数は多かったですが知らない人の写真が大半で、あまり自分達が写っている写真がなかったのに60ドルは高いと感じました。

Amazing Adventure on the Trilogy V

Reviewed by: M. Chartrand

My husband and I took the snorkeling trip on the Trilogy V out to Molokini Crater. What an amazing adventure! The crew was so wonderful and went out of their way to take care of their guests. The food was delicious! The crew served fresh baked cinnamon rolls and fruit for breakfast, a huge lunch, and an ice cream sundae for dessert, as well as unlimited beverages. The trip out and back from the crater was so much fun! The snorkeling was top notch! After snorkeling at the crater, we also snorkeled at Turtle Town where we saw beautiful sea turtles in their natural environment. There is nothing more amazing! I would highly recommend this trip and we cannot wait to sail with this crew again. Thank you for the amazing memories!

It was just so noisy!! とにかく騒っぱなしでした!!

Reviewed by: あんな♡ゆみ

Since I was going to Hawaii, I wanted to have experiences that can only be done there! So I decided to participate!!

My impression of the experience is simply moving! I joined with the mindset of just wanting to see wild dolphins, but I was pleasantly surprised in a good way♡

On the morning of the event, a school bus picked us up around 6 AM near the hotel. It’s about a one-hour ride, but there was an explanation of the schedule and safety precautions on the bus, so I think it’s better to get plenty of sleep the night before since you won’t be able to nap. It also takes a lot of energy...

After arriving at the site, we immediately boarded the boat and set off! For those who want, there’s a rental of wetsuits for $10. We didn’t rent them, but it was quite cold on the boat, and it could help prevent sunburn, so it might have been a good idea to borrow one.

Within about 30 minutes of departure, we arrived at Makua Beach, a sacred place on Oahu. We received information that there were dolphins nearby!! Then, we saw countless dolphins jumping in a spot where we could clearly see them with the naked eye. We got excited, prepared ourselves, and entered the water. It was truly moving to see the dolphins playing right in front of us and to hear their sounds!! We encountered about 70-80 dolphins!!

After enjoying the dolphins thoroughly, we moved to a snorkeling spot and had fun snorkeling. This is the home of the turtles. As soon as we entered, we encountered a family of four turtles! The fish were beautiful too!

After returning to shore and changing, we took the bus back to Waikiki. We were able to return to the hotel by around noon, so we could make good use of the afternoon!

Even for us, who aren’t very good swimmers, we had a great time! I’m thinking I want to enroll in Dolphin University next!

せっかくハワイに行くのだから、ハワイでしか出来ない体験がしたい!と思い参加を決めました!!

参加した感想はとにかく感動です!野生のイルカが見れたらなーくらいの気持ちで参加しましたが、いい意味でとっても裏切られました♡

当日の朝は早く6時くらいにホテル付近までスクールバスでお迎え。
1時間ほどの移動ですが、バスの中でスケジュールの説明や安全に関する諸注意があり、寝ることが出来ないので前日はたっぷり睡眠をとって参加した方がいいと思います。体力も相当使うので、、、。

現地に到着後すぐにボートに乗り込み出発!希望者には$10でウェットスーツの貸し出しがあります。私達は借りませんでしたが、ボートの上はとても寒いのと日焼け防止にもなるので、借りてもよかったかも。

ボートが出発して30分もたたないくらいでオアフ島の聖地マクアビーチに到着。付近にイルカがいるとの情報が!!すると肉眼ではっきりわかるくらいのところで無数のイルカがジャンプしていました。興奮しながら準備をし、海に入りました。目の前をイルカたちが遊んでいたり、イルカの声が聞こえたり、本当に感動しました!!70-80頭くらいのイルカに会えました!!

充分にイルカを楽しんだ後はシュノーケルスポットへ移動し、シュノーケルを楽しみました。ここはカメのおうち。入ってすぐに4匹のカメの親子に出会えました!魚もきれいでした!

岸に戻って着替えて、またバスでワイキキへ。12時くらいにはホテルに戻れるので午後も有効活用出来ます!

泳ぎがあまり得意でない私達でもとっても楽しむことが出来ました!
次はイルカ大学に入学したいなーと思います!

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

Amazing Adventure

Reviewed by: Kevin D

My girlfriend and I decided to do this as a spur of the moment adventure and it was well worth it. The crew was very friendly and knowledgeable about the sharks we would be seeing. The boat fit 16 people so we were split into two groups of 8 that took turns going into the cage. The cage was large and was able to fit 8 people comfortably. The instant I went underwater there were three sharks just swimming right by the cage. We ended up seeing about 6-8 different sharks and it was a surreal experience. I would highly recommend this trip!

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

Amazing Trip!

Reviewed by: Cmaher55

*Written by the teenager
My parents and I went on this snorkel trip as kind of a last minute thing and it was absolutely amazing. There is usually about 25 people on the boat but we got lucky and were aboard the boat with just one other family of three, also with a teenager. The snorkeling spot is perfect! I would definitely recommend bringing fins, they aren't provided or required but your experience will be much better with them. There are lots of fish but not a huge variety. The main thing is the turtles and there's plenty of those! They chill at the bottom and occasionally come up for air. If you have fins you can dive down about 15 feet and be near them. It's incredible being face to face with a turtle. The boat provides you with fun noodles if you would like to float at the top and look and that helped out the people who didn't bring fins. They also have one guy out there diving with you and keeping an eye on things which makes you feel really safe while snorkeling. After about 45 mins-hour, we got back on the boat and ate some sandwiches. There's drinks for sale as well. We then went on an hour long sail pretty far out there. If you don't mind getting wet you can sit or lay across the nets in the front and it's really fun. If you have younger kids or aren't comfortable in the water then I think you'll need to bring your own lifejacket. I'm sure they probably had them someplace on the boat but they weren't given to you and you don't really need them. All in all the trip was extremely fun and well worth the price ( which is better than any others we could find). Would definitely recommend this and we might even do it again before leaving for home.

A fun time with dolphins and sea turtles. イルカやウミガメたちと楽しい時間

Reviewed by: Takako

This time, we participated as a couple on our honeymoon trip to Hawaii. Since it was our first overseas trip, we had some anxiety, but once we joined, that anxiety quickly disappeared. During the welcome and snorkeling, both local guides and Japanese staff were there to guide us, so we felt safe using the services.

To our surprise, we spotted a pod of dolphins shortly after departing by boat, and with the guide's signal to go, we jumped into the water. With the call of "Look down!" we were able to see many dolphins. Watching the dolphins swim happily, even though we are not great swimmers, we had a wonderful time.

After moving to another spot, we were able to swim with colorful and cute Hawaiian fish. Just when we thought we couldn't find a sea turtle, one surfaced for air right near us, which was both surprising and delightful.

Next time, I definitely want to enroll in other schools as well. Thank you for the enjoyable time.

今回、ハワイへの新婚旅行で夫婦二人で参加させていただきました。
初めての海外旅行ということで不安な気持ちがありましたが、参加してみるとその不安もあっという間なくなりました。
お迎えやシュノーケリングでは、現地の方とともに日本人の方が終始ガイドや誘導をしていたでいたので、安心して利用させていただくことができました。

驚くことに船で出発してすぐにイルカの群れを発見することができ、誘導員さんのGOの合図で海へ飛び込み「下を見て!」の声とともに、たくさんのイルカをみることができました。イルカたちが気もち良さそうに泳ぐ姿を見ながら、泳ぎが苦手な私たち夫婦も楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。

また、ポイントを移動してからは、ハワイらしいカラフルな可愛い魚たちと泳ぐことができました。
なかなかウミガメを見つけることができないなと思っていると、ちょうど息継ぎに上がってきたウミガメが私たちのすぐ近くにいたので、驚くとともに嬉しかったです。

次回は是非、他の学校にも入学してみたいと思います。
楽しい時間をありがとうございました。

Miracle!!! 奇跡!!!

Reviewed by: nacci

I participated with my husband and our 5-year-old child.

As soon as we left the hotel, it started to rain... Our guide, Sue, said, "It's the first rain in six months. But don't worry! This rain is a cleansing rain!" True to her words, by the time we reached the sea, the rain had stopped and the blue sky began to peek through.

However, it's definitely better to rent a wetsuit. It was cold on the boat due to the wind, and I've heard that jellyfish have been appearing lately. Everyone in our group rented wetsuits.

Once we got out to sea, we immediately saw a pod of dolphins! Moreover, they came to us without us having to chase them, swimming right below and beside us while we just floated in the water. Just before we got back on the boat, a huge school of sardines came by, allowing us to experience being surrounded by a black mass of fish. Apparently, this is not something that usually happens. We also saw about five sea turtles. It was so much fun!

Since it was our child's first time at the sea, I was a bit worried, thinking, "Will he be okay?" but he seemed to have a great time.

Above all, our guide Sue was incredibly entertaining. She provided detailed instructions because not paying attention could lead to injuries or cause the dolphins to escape, but she delivered the information with plenty of humor, which really lifted the mood.

My husband is more of an indoor person, so he didn't have high expectations for Hawaii's activities, but he said, "Let's come again! Since I don't have much stamina, let's do this again in middle school!"

We truly had a valuable experience. Thank you very much!!

《It's mentioned that it's good to bring some cash, but you should definitely have around $100 for the wetsuit rental, the photo fee of $50 (you can choose between data or CD), and tips.》

主人と5歳の子供の3人で参加しました。

ホテルを出ると雨…。ガイドのスーさんも「半年ぶりの雨です。でも大丈夫!この雨はお掃除の雨ですから!」との事。言葉通り、海へ着く頃には雨もあがって青空がのぞいてきました。

ただ、ウエットスーツはレンタルした方が絶対いいです。船の上は風もあって寒いのと、最近はクラゲがでるらしいので。私たちが参加したグループは皆レンタルしてました。

海へでると、すぐにイルカの群がいました~!しかも、おっかけなくてもイルカの方から来てくれたので、海に浮いてるだけで下や横を通ってくれました。船にあがるちょっと前にイワシの大群がやってきて、黒い群れの中に身を置くという体験もできました。普通こんなことは無いらしいです。ウミガメも5匹くらい見れました。めっちゃ楽しかったです。

5歳の子供は海へ行くのも初めてだったので「大丈夫かな?」と思っていたのですが、すごく楽しそうでした。

なんと言っても、ガイドのスーさんがとても楽しかったです。
説明を聞いていないと怪我につながったり、イルカが逃げたりするので、細かく注意が入るのですが、それもユーモアたっぷりに話してくださって場を盛り上げてくださってました。

主人はインドア派なので、あまりハワイのアクティビティに期待をしていなかったようなのですが「また来よう!!体力無いから次も中学で!」と言っているほどです。

本当に貴重な体験ができました。ありがとうございました!!

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Our snorkel cruise

Reviewed by: Bob G

My son, and his 19yr old son, attended this. It was well organized but the wind was up and they couldn't snorkel at their desired location. An alternative site was found, the water was much calmer and snorkeling was ok.

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>

Very satisfied! 大満足!

Reviewed by: おやこ

I participated with my mother!
It was my first time in Hawaii, and I was immediately impressed by the beauty of the ocean. ☆
As soon as we set sail from the harbor, we saw a pod of about 30 dolphins swimming nearby, which made me very happy! After entering the water twice to swim with the dolphins, we also had time to see beautiful fish and do some sea kayaking, which was very fulfilling.
The staff were very cheerful and attentive, making for a fun experience. My mother stayed on the boat and didn't enter the water, but she was very pleased that the captain gave her bread to attract the beautiful fish.
The boat didn't rock too much, but if you're prone to seasickness, it might be a good idea to take medication beforehand.
The staff were also very caring towards those who did get seasick, which was very reassuring.
I would love to participate again when I visit Hawaii next time!

母と二人で参加しました!
初ハワイだったのですが海のキレイさにまず感動☆
港から出港してすぐ近くにイルカちゃん達が泳いでいて、30頭くらいの群れを目にすることができ大満足でした!!二回イルカを見るために海に入り近くで泳いだ後、ポイントを変えてキレイな魚を見たりシーカヤックをする時間も設けてありボリュームたっぷり。
スタッフのみなさんはとても明るく気遣いも素晴らしく楽しい時間を過ごせました。母は海に入らず船の上で過ごしていましたが、その間も船長さんがパンをくださってキレイな魚を呼んでみせてくれたりと楽しませてもらったととても喜んでいました。
船はそんなに揺れませんでしたが、船酔いしやすい方は薬を事前に服用した方がよいかもしれません。
船酔いした方にもスタッフの方たちがきちんと介抱されていて、とても好感がもてました。
またハワイにいく際には参加したいと思います!

アトランティス潜水艦ツアー ハワイの海底30mを進む海中アドベンチャー <ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ発/日本語ナレーション(要事前ダウンロード)>

What a disappointment!! It was underwhelming. 残念!!期待外れでした

Reviewed by: cocom

I was filled with excitement as I boarded the car for my first submarine experience.

I felt thrilled even while on the boat from Ala Moana Harbor to the offshore location. When we arrived at the point, the announcement mentioned that the previous submarine was surfacing. Bubbles formed, and in no time, the submarine appeared right in front of us. Finally, it was our turn to board. Due to the steep stairs, we slowly descended backwards into the submarine.

My first impression was that, despite being a premium experience, the windows inside the submarine were quite small. Following the crew's guidance, I took my seat. The dive began, and we descended to the seabed. Since I participated in the Japanese tour, I had no trouble with the language, and the explanations were easy to understand. However, depending on the direction we were seated, the season, and the ocean currents, visibility was not very clear, which was disappointing. Given my high expectations, I felt let down.

初めての潜水艦乗船に、わくわく気分で迎えの車に乗車。

アラモアナハーバーから沖合いまでの船の中でもわくわく。
ポイントに着くと船内放送にて前の潜水艦が浮上して来るとのこと。泡が立ちアッという間に潜水艦が目の前に浮上。
やっと順番が来て乗船開始。急な階段の為、後ろ向きにてゆっくり、ゆっくり下り船内に。
第一印象は、プレミアムの割には、船内の窓が狭い。船員さんの案内に従い着席。
潜水が開始され海底へ。
日本語ツアー参加なので言葉には困らず、案内も分かりやすかったが、座る方向、季節、海流にもよるのだろうか?あまり鮮明に見えず残念。
期待が大きかった分、がっかりしてしまった。

Reviewed by: takashin

The Japanese guide was also present and provided thorough explanations. Initially, I requested only snorkeling, but I changed to snuba on the boat. I was amazed by the beauty of the sea around Molokini Island and the many fish! I even encountered a sea turtle right next to me; it was a fun experience!

I reunited with my daughter, who is studying abroad in Honolulu, and our family after a long time. My daughter, who had been feeling mentally weak, found healing through her interaction with dolphins, and it seems she is starting to blend in with the locals. I am grateful for this encounter!

Ko Olina Ocean Adventures Snorkel with Wild Dolphins Rafting Tour [Open Soon]

Get the Wild Dolphin Experience from Ko Olina Ocean Adventures!

Reviewed by: Marisa

I was picked up on time by Randi as soon as I got to the hotel. I was a little early, but it worked out so I wouldn't have to wait forever as the driver Randi was already waiting. She was very courteous and a nice person to talk story with on such a long drive. As soon as we got there, it was such a pretty place! When I checked in. Chyanne was very polite and made sure that I was taken care of. Austin the captain of the boat got everyone on as smoothly as possible. The boat ride was great and the Waianae coastline is wonderful. We stopped next to the Aloha Factory which was a perfect snorkel spot. There were tons of tropical fish and cool things to see. The next snorkel spot was a little farther north and we saw so many dolphins! They were swimming next to the boat. We waded around in the water and the dolphins came close by. It was amazing! I could here the little dolphin songs underwater when there were a lot of them around. We had an awesome photographer Barnabus who made all of us look pretty in our pictures. While I did have a camera, it's a lot better to have him take your photos. After all, this really is the experience of a lifetime, so looking pretty is necessity. When we got back, I was greeted with a wonderful lunch of a pulled pork sandwich, fresh fruit salad, and chips. If I could I would give the dolphin watch tour 10 stars! I highly recommend!
