ホエールウォッチングクルーズ 　2階建てカタマラン船に乗って壮大なクジラの姿を観察！＜12～3月／軽食付き／英語ガイド／カイルアコナ発＞

Whale Watching Cruise by Body Glove ホエール・ウォッチング・クルーズ　Byボディ・グローブ号

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

We participated as a family.
This was our first time going whale watching.
Since there were few Japanese passengers, there were no staff who spoke Japanese on board.
As a result, all the announcements and explanations were in English.
I couldn't understand the detailed explanations, but I thoroughly enjoyed the whale watching.
With fewer passengers, we were able to move around to various positions on the boat, making the watching environment the best.
I was particularly moved by the sight of the whales breaching.
I couldn't help but scream in excitement.
However, since we were expecting to see the breaching right in front of us, it was disappointing that the moment happened quite far away.
Lastly, perhaps due to the bad weather, the catamaran rocked quite a bit. Even though I took motion sickness medication, I still got seasick.

野生のイルカウォッチング＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　ジャンボスライダーやSUPも楽しめる！＜ランチ付き／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎／日本語または英語ガイド＞

It was fun. 楽しかったです。

Reviewed by: オードリー

I participated with my 5-year-old daughter. The staff members were very good at Japanese and many were very caring, so my daughter was very satisfied.

It was my first time seeing dolphins and sea turtles up close! I was moved. The performance by the staff and the captain was excellent and fun.

The hula lesson in the great outdoors was also very pleasant and I was very satisfied.

For those worried about seasickness, it seems advisable to bring motion sickness medication.

５歳の娘と二人で参加しました。
スタッフの方々が、日本語が上手でとっても子煩悩な方が多かったので娘も大満足でした。

イルカやウミガメを近くで見たのは初めて！感動しました。
スタッフ＆船長のパフォーマンスの最高で楽しかったです。

大自然のなかのフラのレッスンも気持ちがよくて大満足でした。


船酔いが心配な方は、酔い止め薬は、持参した方がよさそうです。

After whale watching, having a meal while enjoying Hawaiian music on a leisurely cruise is the best. Unfortunately, the whales were only small dots in the distance... However, I was able to see whales up close the day before during a dinner cruise, so I was able to accept it. It's all about timing.

モロキニ島シュノーケリングクルーズ ＜朝・昼食付／現地集合＞

I was surprised by the clarity of the ocean! 海の透明度にビックリ！

Reviewed by: keikoala

I participated with my 12-year-old son on March 24, 2010. Although we had snorkeling experience in Oahu, it was our first time in Maui. The boat for this tour was large and impressive, unlike the smaller boats we had in Oahu, and my son didn't get seasick.

There were only two Japanese families participating, including us, so there was just one Japanese staff member. However, they were very attentive and provided us with timely information, allowing us to act smoothly and enjoy the activities.

The water clarity at Molokini exceeded our expectations. You could almost see the seabed from the surface! While there weren't an overwhelming number of fish, we still had a good time. We also moved to a spot where turtles were supposed to be, but unfortunately, we couldn't see any.

From a Japanese perspective, it gets quite cold when you come out of the water, so I think it's a good idea to bring something to wear on top. The meeting place, Ma'alaea Harbor, can also be windy and chilly in the morning.

3/24,2010に12歳の息子と二人で参加しました。オアフ島でのシュノーケリング経験はあったものの、マウイは初めてでした。オアフでは船というよりボートでしたが、このツアーの船は大きく立派で、息子も船酔いをせずに済みました。

今回参加の日本人は私たち親子と、もう一組の親子連れだけでしたので日本人のスタッフは一人だけでしたが、細やかに気を使って下さり、早め早めの情報を頂けたのでスムーズに行動が出来、アクティビティを楽しむことができました。

モロキニの水の透明度は聞きしに勝るものでした。水面から海底が見える！と言ってもいいくらいの透明度です。
魚は、驚くほど沢山はいませんでしたが、楽しめました。
また、亀のいる場所へ移動してシュノーケリングをしましたが、残念ながら私たちは見ることができませんでした。

日本人の体感だと、水からあがるとかなり寒いので、上に着るものは準備していった方がいいと思います。
集合場所のマアエラハーバーも朝は風があって寒いですしね。

We were able to see a mother and baby whale right after we set sail. I was surprised because I thought we wouldn't see them unless we went further offshore! Amidst the cheers of the people around us, we took lots of photos. Soon after, we spotted more whales... When we returned to the cabin, lunch was already prepared. The meal was just okay, I would say. We also got to participate in a ukulele class with the kids, which was a lot of fun.

Reviewed by: ３人の子供のパパ

On March 26, 2010, I participated with my family of five (myself, my wife, our 14-year-old son, 12-year-old daughter, and 9-year-old son). It was a tour with lunch included but no transportation provided. We took The Bus from Waikiki to Aloha Tower. At check-in, we received a green sticker to wear on our chests, and when we arrived at the ship's entrance, a handsome man who appeared to be the captain welcomed us. I asked if we could take a picture together, but he firmly declined.

There were different entrances for those with lunch included and those without (yellow badge). We, who had the lunch included, enjoyed unlimited welcome coffee (hot) and cold water on the first floor. While seated, a vendor came around selling paid juices, but about half of the guests did not order any. After an explanation in English and a brief one in Japanese, we set sail around noon. During the explanation, seasickness medication was offered for free to those who wanted it. It was mentioned that the lunch buffet would start around 12:30, followed by activities like lei-making and hula dancing on the same floor.

After that, we had free time and went to the observation area on the third or fourth floor. There were several summer beds on the fourth floor where you could lie down. We searched for whales at the front of the fourth floor. However, it wasn't easy to spot them, and before we knew it, it was already 12:30... At that moment, an announcement came over the speaker: "A whale has appeared at 3 o'clock!" The whale spouted water into the air, and the ship erupted in cheers! When the dorsal fin became visible, there was another round of applause, and finally, when the tail fin was seen, there was yet another cheer.

It was past 12:30, and lunch had started on the first floor, but since the whale continued to appear, we decided to postpone lunch and keep watching. After about 20 minutes, we moved to the first floor and had lunch while still watching the same whale. Our seats had been assigned beforehand, and we could see the whale from our seats. Later, an announcement said, "Unfortunately, we must say goodbye to this whale as 30 minutes have passed." We were able to enjoy watching for a full 30 minutes, and our family was very satisfied.

After that, lei-making, hula dancing, and ukulele classes began. After lunch, those without lunch also entered the first-floor area, but I’m not sure if similar classes were held on the second floor. However, someone who came in said, "It's cool in here!" so the area where those without lunch were might have been hot. Additionally, we participated in lei-making during the latter part of lunch.

2010.3.26　家族５人（私、妻、長男；14歳、長女12歳、次男9歳）で参加しました。ランチ付き・送迎なしのツアーです。ワイキキからはザ・バスに乗ってアロハタワーまで行きました。チェックイン時、胸に張るシール（緑色）をもらい、船の入口に行くと船長さんらしき格好良い方がお出迎えしてくれました。そこで、写真を一緒に撮って欲しいとお願いしましたが、きっぱりと断られました。乗船はランチ付きとランチ無しコース（黄色いワッペン）で入口が異なりました。私たちランチ付きコースの人は１階でウエルカムコーヒー（ホット）と冷水が飲み放題でした。座っていると有料のジュースを売りに来ましたが半分くらいの方は頼んでいませんでした。英語の説明と日本語の簡単な説明のあと、１２時頃、出航しました。説明の際、酔い止めの薬（？）が無料で希望者に配られました。説明では１２時３０分頃からランチバイキングが始まり、その後、同じフロアーでレイ作りやフラダンスの催しが行われると言ってました。そして、自由行動となり、３階もしくは４階の展望コーナーへ行きました。４階には寝そべることができるサマーベットも数台ありました。私たちは４階の先頭で鯨を探しました。とはいえ、そう簡単に見つかるわけもなく、あっという間に１２時３０分・・・・。そのとき、放送で「３時の方向に鯨が出現！」。鯨は上空に潮を吹き、船上は大喝采！。そして背びれが見えると、また大喝采！、そして最後に尾ひれが見え、再度、大喝采がおきました。１２時３０分を過ぎており、１階ではランチが始まっていましたが、鯨が継続して現れるので家族でランチを後回しにしてずっと見てました。２０分ほど見た後、１階に移動し、ランチを食べながら同じ鯨を見ました。席は始めに決められており、席からも鯨を見ることが出来ました。その後、放送で「３０分が経過したため残念ですがこの鯨とお別れです。」という放送が流れました。３０分、たっぷり鑑賞でき、家族一同、大満足でした。その後、レイ作りやフラダンス、ウクレレ教室が始まりました。ランチ終了後、ランチ無しの方々も１階のフロアーに入ってきましたが、２階でも同様な教室が開けれていたのかどうかはわかりません。しかし、入ってきた方が、「ここは涼しい！」って言っていたのでランチなしの方が居るフロアは暑かったのかもしれません。また、私たちはランチ後半からレイ作りな

Reviewed by: rayray

I definitely want to participate again! The boat was fast and it was so much fun. The staff really helped to create a lively atmosphere. The moment I saw a dolphin's fin right in front of me was just moving. From what I gather from blogs and such, it seems like it wasn't a "too wonderful situation," but it was still very touching. The turtles also made an appearance. The blue sea, the coastline, and the sun were just breathtaking. My mother, who can't swim, was with us and she was quite happy. (Although it seemed she struggled a bit after jumping into the sea and drinking a lot of seawater, she didn't say she wouldn't go again; instead, she renewed her determination to go again!) It was that refreshing. You can enjoy colorful fish up close while snorkeling, feeling like you're swimming in an aquarium. I highly recommend it for families with children. While wind protection is necessary on the boat, our family had a great time without needing to rent wetsuits.

また絶対に参加したいと思います!!
ボートもスピードがあり、楽しかったー。
スタッフももちろん盛り上げてくれました。
目の前にイルカのヒレが見えた瞬間なんて、もう、感動です。ブログ等から察するに、「素晴らしすぎる状況」ではなかったように思いますが、十分感動します。
カメもちゃんと姿を見せてくれたし。
あの蒼い海と海岸線と太陽でもう、やられます。
泳げない母も一緒でしたが、かなり喜んでました。
（海へ飛び込んだ際に海水をずいぶん飲んで苦しんだようでしたが、二度と行かない、と言わないばかりか、また行く!!の決意を新たにしていました）
それほどにリフレッシュさせてくれます。
シュノーケリングでも色鮮やかなサカナを間近に堪能できます。水族館を泳いでいる気分になれるくらいです。
子どもさんのいるファミリーにはかなりオススメです。
ボートの上での風対策は必要ですが、私たち家族はウェットスーツを借りることも無く楽しめました。

I think children in upper elementary school and above can enjoy various activities. Interacting with dolphins is something you don't often find elsewhere! I expected it to be larger in scale, but there are so many attractions that you still need more than half a day to see everything properly.

小学校高学年以上ならいろいろ楽しめると思います。イルカと触れ合うなんて他ではなかなかなさそうですよ＾＾
規模的にはもっと大きいところかと予想していましたが、ちゃんと見るにはそれでも半日以上必要なほど見所一杯です。

This time, it was a trial with my 14-year-old daughter, 9-year-old son, and dad. The mom, who loves dolphins more than anyone, decided to focus on taking photos. However, I later found out that all the photos and videos were taken by the park staff from the best positions, so it was fine for everyone in the family to participate without anyone having to focus on filming. Mom was fired up for a "rematch next time!"

Just making eye contact with the dolphin NANI felt healing.

My 9-year-old son was surprised by the mischievous NANI, but he was overjoyed to be able to swim with it on his stomach.

(However, after my son, the dad surprised the dolphin by trying to ride it after the boy, causing it to stop. But after regaining its composure, it properly let him ride and swim.)

It's definitely something that everyone can enjoy with family and friends, so put down the camera and let's try!

今回は、１４歳の長女と９歳の長男とパパがトライ。
誰よりもイルカ好きのママは、撮影班に専念することに。
でも、後で判ったことだけど、写真もビデオも全て、ベストポジションからパークのスタッフが撮ってくれているので、誰かが撮影に専念しなくとも、家族全員でのトライでも大丈夫。
ママは「次回こそは!」とリベンジに燃えていました。

イルカのNANIの目が合うだけで、心が癒される感じ。

９歳の長男も、いたずら好きのNANIに驚かされたけど、お腹に乗せて泳いでもらって大喜び。

(でも、長男の後のパパには、男の子の後に「大きなおじさん」を乗せるのに、イルカも驚いて止まってしまったけれど。気を取り直して、ちゃんと乗せて泳いでくれました。)

是非、家族や友達と全員で楽しめるので、カメラを置いて、Let's Try!です。

Jin is wonderful!!! ジン君素敵！！！

Reviewed by: mariannnu

I made a reservation on-site and participated with a friend.

At first, I thought it would only be Japanese people, but there were also various people from Europe and America, which made me really excited. The inside of the boat was clean, and the restroom was nice too.

As we set off, the captain immediately started explaining in English, and I thought, "I don't understand this at all (#^.^#)," but then, to my surprise, Jin-kun appeared, speaking Japanese fluently (and he was handsome too)! He asked, "Are there any Japanese people here?" It was so cute and hilarious!!

Thanks to that, I was sure I could enjoy myself without worry!

The sea was incredibly beautiful, with different shades of blue depending on the location, and the breeze felt nice. I didn't want to go back, even though we had just started.

Before long, we spotted dolphins, and they kept coming one after another!!! In the end, there was a huge group of over 20 dolphins swimming right next to the boat, and they were so cute, I was extremely satisfied☆

After that, during snorkeling, I swam with sea turtles and fish, feeling like I had become a fish myself. It was quite cold after snorkeling, but there were four showers with warm water, so I was able to warm up.

And finally, it was time for lunch☆ While preparing lunch, Jin-kun jokingly asked about the chicken, "Is this your first time eating dolphin?" which surprised me and made me laugh a lot☆

The lunch was delicious, and I ended up eating a lot (*^_^*).

When my friend felt a bit seasick, Jin-kun noticed and asked, "Are you okay?" He was very considerate and gave various advice, which was really helpful. He's a thoughtful guy.

In the end, I took a photo with Jin-kun and reluctantly headed back (__).

As you can see, I really became quite fond of Jin-kun on this tour!!!!!!!

It was an absolutely wonderful tour that I definitely want to go on again☆☆☆

現地で予約して友達と2人で参加しました。

初めは日本人だけかと思いきや、欧米の方達も色々いて、

「え~、日本人の方いますか~？」

そのおかげで、安心して楽しめると確信！！

沖のほうは海がすっごく綺麗で、青色が場所によって違って、風も気持ち良いし、帰りたくない！！と出発したばかりなのに、思ってしまうほど。


そうこうしてるうちに、イルカが見えてきて、しかも次々に！！！
しまいには、２０匹以上かと言うくらいの大群が船のすぐ傍をずっと泳いでいて、かなり可愛くて、大満足☆


その後、シュノーケリングでは海がめや魚達と一緒に泳いで、自分も魚になったような気分でいました。

そして、いよいよlunch☆

lunchがまたおいしくて、いっぱい食べちゃいました(*^_^*)

友達が少し船酔いしていると、ジン君が気づいて、
「大丈夫ですか？」

Breaching at close range! 至近距離でのブリーチング！

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I had heard that you can't see them up close on Oahu, so I didn't have high expectations, but I was able to see breaching at very close range!!

At first, I only saw a little bit of spouting and the back of the whale, but suddenly there was a big jump right next to the boat! It was like a scene from a TV show happening right in front of me, and the other guests were also very excited, cheering and clapping.

Even the staff who are on board every day said it's a rare occurrence to see it once every week or two, so I felt really lucky.

Of course, the whale watching was amazing, but the lunch buffet had everything from salads to meat, fruits, and desserts. We also enjoyed hula and ukulele lessons, and a cruise with a view of Waikiki and Diamond Head all at once. I think it’s a very worthwhile tour.

The announcements were in both English and Japanese, and all the staff were friendly, which made me very satisfied!

I definitely want to participate again! ♪

オアフ島ではそれほど近くでは見れないと聞いていたので、

冬季限定！ホエールウォッチングクルーズ ＜12～4月／英語ガイド／ラハイナ港発＞

We had a great time as a family of three. 家族３人で楽しめました。

Reviewed by: ぺんちきん

According to the Maui Tourism Board's website, the tour was estimated to take about 4 hours, which made my wife and daughter hesitant due to concerns about seasickness. However, since the tour guides mentioned it would only take 2 hours, we decided to join the Lahaina cruise. In the end, I think 2 hours was just right. Thanks to the season at the end of March, we spotted whales about 15 minutes after departure and were able to see around 20 whales in total, including a mother and calf that we observed closely for about 30 minutes. (Most were just visible in the distance, but I believe the situation wouldn't change much even if the duration were longer.)

I actually intended to bring binoculars but forgot them. Interestingly, neither the crew nor any participants had them either. I thought that since visibility would be limited while searching, there might not be many opportunities to use them.

The boat we were on was a stable catamaran, and while it felt stable when moving, when the engine was turned off to observe the whales, the small width of the boat made it susceptible to rolling waves, which could cause side-to-side motion. If you're prone to seasickness, it might be wise to take some medication beforehand (my wife said she was glad she did).

Additionally, parking in Lahaina can be challenging, so if you're participating by rental car, I recommend arriving early in the morning or a bit ahead of time (there were plenty of parking spots if you moved a little away from the bay).

In summary, I’m glad we participated! It was fun! I hope this helps.

マウイ観光局のＨＰをみると４Ｈ程度となっていたため、船酔いを気にする妻と娘はしぶっていたが、観光ガイドなどでは２Ｈのツアーとなっていたこともあり、ラハイナクルーズに参加することにした。結果、２Ｈで十分だったと思う。3月末のシーズンのおかげか、出航して15分程度でクジラを確認することが出来、ひと組の親子クジラをじっくり見た30分程度含めて都合20匹くらいは確認出来た。（ほとんどが遠くの海上にいるのが確認できる程度だが、時間が長くても、たいして状況は変わらないと思う）
実は、双眼鏡を持っていこうと思いながら忘れてしまったのだが、クルーを始め、参加者も誰も持っていなかった。探す際に視界が狭くなるのは邪魔なので、あまり活躍するタイミングはないかもしれないと思った。
また、乗った船は、揺れに強い双胴船だったが、確かに、
自走しているときは安定感強いが、クジラを観察するために、エンジンを切っている際には、横幅小さい船だと上下になる波の揺れが、左右の揺れになるので、左右の揺れに弱い人は酔い止めの薬を飲んでおいたほうがよいかもしれない。（妻は飲んで良かったと言っていた）
あと、ラハイナは駐車スペースに難があるので、レンタカーで参加される方は早朝or早めの到着（湾からちょっと離れれば止める場所はいくらでもあった）を心がけるとよいと思います。
最後に、ひとことで言うと、参加して良かった！楽しかった！です。
ご参考まで。

Reviewed by: 関野

The dolphin tour had several options, and I was unsure which to choose, but I picked this one and it was the best decision. The boat was a large catamaran, spacious, clean, fast, and felt safe. We first went to the dolphin point and after seeing the dolphins, we headed to see whales. We spotted a spout in the distance and approached it quickly because the boat was fast, allowing us to get close in no time. After chasing and watching the whales for a while, we returned to the dolphin point for snorkeling. The equipment was clean, and the staff took great care of my 4-year-old grandson. There was a staff member named Tamiko who spoke Japanese, which was reassuring. She taught the Japanese guests with great care. At the snorkeling point, by chance, while my grandson and I were playing near the boat, a large sea turtle surfaced right beneath us, coming up very close. I was so surprised that I took off my snorkel and shouted, "It's a turtle!" This stroke of luck was shared by the two of us and two foreign guests nearby. The others were away from the boat and missed this fortunate encounter. After that, we had lunch, which was luxurious and surprisingly impressive for a meal on a boat. The drinks included unlimited beer and Hawaiian cocktails, and we could eat wherever we liked on the boat. During that time, the boat cruised even further than the whale sighting point, making for a very satisfying watching cruise. My wife was also very satisfied, and I think we will definitely become repeat customers. I highly recommend it. There are other tours nearby, but they can't compare in terms of luxury.

イルカツアーはアランさんのなかでもいくつかあり、迷いましたが、このツアーにして最高でした。船も大きな双胴船で、広くてきれいで速くて安心でした。最初にイルカポイントへ行きイルカを見た後今度はクジラをミニみにいきました。遠くに潮を吹いているのを見つけて近づくのですが船が速いのですぐに近くまで行けました。そこでしばらくクジラを追いかけてウォッチングをした後またイルカポイントへ戻りそこでシュノーケリングです。道具もきれいで4歳の孫にはスタッフの方がいろいろと世話をしてくださいました。日本語の出来るタミ子さんという方がおられたので安心でした。日本人には彼女が丁寧に教えてくれました。シュノーケルポイントではたまたまですが私と4歳の孫が船の近くで遊んでいたら真下から大きなウミガメが浮上したきて、すぐそばに浮き上がり、あまりの驚きにシュノーケルを外して『カメだー』と叫んでしまいました。この幸運は私たち二人と近くにいた外人さん二人の４にんでした。たの人たちは船から離れていてこの幸運に遭遇できませんでした。その後はランチでしたがこれが豪華で船の上の食事とはおもえないくらいの感動ランチでした。飲み物もビールはもちろん、ハワイアンカクテルも飲み放題で船の上で好き勝手な場所で食事でした。その間また船はクジラを見たポイントよりもまだ先までクルーズしてくれて大満足のウォッチングクルーズでした。
家内も大満足で多分リピーターになると思います。
絶対オススメ。近くに他のツアーも来ていますが豪華さでは比較になりませんよ。

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）＞

Be cautious of seasickness before boarding. 乗る前の船酔い注意

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The submarine was comfortable, but the children got seasick during the boat ride before boarding the submarine. The same happened on the way back. It might be better to take motion sickness medication in advance.

I participated in the Japanese language tour. The guide's Japanese was perfect, and the staff's response was good, making for a pleasant experience. However, compared to when I rode in Guam ten years ago, the clarity of the water and the number of fish were lacking. Those who have experienced it in Guam might feel a bit disappointed if they go with the same expectations. I think first-timers will enjoy it enough.

潜水艦は快適でしたが、潜水艦に乗る前の船での移動で子供たちが酔ってしまいました。帰りも同様。
事前に酔い止めを飲んでおいたほうが良いかもしれません。

日本語時間に乗りました。ガイドさんの日本語は完璧、スタッフの対応も良く、気持ちよく参加できました。
ただ、10年前にグアムで乗った時と比べると海の透明度も魚の数も負けてます。グアムで乗ったことある人は同じ感覚で行くとちょっとがっかりします。初めての人は十分楽しめると思います。

Waikiki Submarine Tour - Descend to 100ft, See Shipwrecks & Sunken Airplanes

Atlantis on Ohau

Reviewed by: William

My wife and I went on the Atlantis sub on Ohau. Transportation was on time. Your riding a boat out to the Sub. The sub doesn't come to the docks. We saw 3 sea turtles, 1 shark, 1 eel and countless diffierent types of fish. There is a depth guage up from by the captain. I'm not sure how deep it got but the deepest I saw was 84 feet. Temp was comfortable. It didn't rock like a boat. Very stable. The pressure didn't compress it. The ears never poped like an airplane. Very nice ride. I recemend it. Turn your flash off on the camera. Glass is so thick that even angle PICs gives flash back. Just turn off the flash.

Close encounter with dolphins. イルカと間近でご対面

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

It was an early morning tour, but my child was full of anticipation to meet the dolphins! Surprisingly, we quickly spotted a pod of dolphins. At first, my child was sulking because they couldn't use the snorkel well, but they persevered to see the dolphins. We were truly satisfied to see so many dolphins up close.

Also, the sea turtles were unexpectedly cute! Despite the presence of people, they approached us. When my child popped their head above the water, they came face to face with a sea turtle, and it was quite a surprise, but it seems to have become the most enjoyable memory in Hawaii.

朝早いツアーでしたが、子どもはイルカに会えると期待満々!!意外にもすぐにイルカの群れを発見。シュノーケルがうまく使えずに初めはむくれていた子どももイルカ見たさにがんばりました。本当にたくさんのイルカを間近でみることができ大満足です。
また海がめが意外にかわいい!!人がいるにもかかわらず近寄ってきました。子どもが海面に顔を出すと同時に海がめとご対面、かなりびっくりしてましたがハワイで一番楽しい思い出になったようです。

Whale watching ホエールウォッチング

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

February is said to be the best season for whale watching, but on the day I boarded, I was only able to catch a glimpse of them from a distance a few times, which was a bit disappointing. The cruise itself had a sense of openness and a nice atmosphere. I was also relieved that I didn't experience any seasickness and was able to relax during the trip.

2月は鯨のベストシーズンとのことでしたが、乗船した日は数回、遠目でようやく確認する位でしか見れなかったのがちょっと残念でした。
クルーズ自体は開放感があり、雰囲気もよかったです。
心配していた船酔いもなく、くつろいだ時間をすごすことができました。

Thank you for your support. お世話になりました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated on February 21.

We joined as a family, but I was the only one who couldn't swim well, so I felt a bit anxious. However, I was drawn to the campaign where if four people participated, it would cost the price of three.

When we set off, my daughter was overjoyed with the speedboat! We saw the tail of a whale diving, discovered dolphins, and put on our snorkels and fins to jump in. Since it was my first experience with both snorkeling and fins, it was quite challenging. I could barely float, but the instructor helped me, and I was able to see the dolphins safely. Unfortunately, I borrowed a prescription snorkel, but it didn't fit well, and my vision was always a bit blurry, which was disappointing. My husband switched it for me partway through, and that one fit better.

This time, we couldn't go to the tropical fish spot, possibly due to the waves, which was a shame. We swam a lot with the dolphins instead, but it was a bit long for me as a beginner, and I got tired.

However, we were all satisfied to see the dolphins up close. If I could wish for anything, it would be to have time to check the condition of the snorkel...

I wonder if I can do a little better next time?

２月２１日に参加しました。

私たちはファミリーで参加でしたが、私だけが、うまく泳ぐことが出来ず、少々不安ながら、キャンペーンで、4人参加すると、3人分の金額になるところに惹かれ申し込みました。

いざ出発、娘は、高速ボートにもとっても大喜び！！
くじらのダイビングの尻尾も見れ、イルカを発見し、シュノーケルとフィンを装着して、飛び込みます。
なにしろ、シュノーケルもフィンも初体験なので、やっぱり大変。浮かぶのが精一杯なところ、インストラクターさんが手を引っ張ってくれて、無事イルカを見ることができました。
ただ、度付きシュノーケルを借りたのですが、どうもうまくフィットせず、視界が終始ボーっとしてたのが、残念
途中、主人が取り替えてくれたのですが、そちらのほうがまだフィットしてましたね

今回は波があったせいか、熱帯魚のスポットにいかれなかったのも、残念。その分いるかとたくさん泳いだのですが、初心者の私には、ちょっと長くて、疲れました。

でも、いるかを近くで見れ、みんな満足しました。
欲をいえば、シュノーケルの状態を確認する時間があれば・・・・

次回は、もう少し上手にできるかな？

Reviewed by: ゆずぽん

On the day of the reservation, there was a tsunami warning in Honolulu due to an earthquake in Chile. Transportation in the city was halted in preparation for the tsunami. I called the staff and was able to reschedule for the next day. I was relieved that there were staff members who spoke Japanese.

As for the whales, I was glad to see several of them. The kids were very excited, and I was satisfied with that. However, the lunch package was a bit chaotic; with the announcement of "There are whales!" everyone was too distracted to enjoy the meal, so it might be better to go without lunch.

予約当日、チリの地震の影響でホノルルは津波警報。市内は津波に備え交通もストップ。スタッフに電話して翌日に振り替えてもらいました。日本語ＯＫなスタッフで安心しました。
肝心のクジラですが、数頭見ることができてよかったです。子供も大興奮、これには満足です。ただしランチ付きのコースは「クジラがいた!」とのアナウンスで食事そっちのけで右へ左へで落ち着かないのでランチなしがいいかも…。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

It was unfortunate that the weather was bad, but I was excited to search for dolphins, enjoyed the thrill of the boat ride, and finally got to see the dolphins! I was able to see them quite closely, and I also got to see wild dolphins up close while snorkeling. They passed by in the blink of an eye, but even when they were out of sight, I could hear their sounds, which was mystical. I was also happy to see sea turtles. I went alone, but I had fun talking with the staff and other customers.

天気が悪かったのが残念でしたが、ドキドキしながらイルカを探し、その間はボートのスリルを楽しみ、やっとイルカに会えました！
結構近くで見れたし、シュノーケルでも近くで自然のイルカを見ることができました。あっという間に通り過ぎてしまいますが、見えなくても声が聞こえたりして、神秘的でした。
海ガメもみれて嬉しかったです。

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ 　2階建てカタマラン船に乗って壮大なクジラの姿を観察！＜12～3月／軽食付き／英語ガイド／カイルアコナ発＞

Just 5 minutes after departure. 出航から、わずか5分

Reviewed by: ちい

Shortly after setting sail,
"Wait? Were they already here?"
Right next to the boat, there were three dolphins and two whales.
There was no time to eat snacks.

I wonder if the whales in Hawaii are not very cautious?
They didn't seem to leave the side of the boat, and for a while, they were waving their fins,
as if they were waving at us...

During the two-hour cruise, we encountered whales quite frequently.
It's said that once they dive, they can hold their breath for about 20 minutes.
We spotted them spouting water and moved quickly towards them.
We kept approaching and stopping the engine repeatedly...
That day, perhaps because we encountered so many whales,
by the end, everyone seemed to be getting a bit bored.
Those who participated the day before said they only saw one whale from a distance.

The weather was nice that day, and I think we were lucky,
but I’m really glad I got to see so many whales on this boat.

Personally, I was out on the deck so much that I got sunburned,
and before I knew it, I had taken over 100 pictures with my digital camera.
Chasing after the whales was such a fun time!

The view of the Big Island from the sea was also wonderful.

出航してまもなく
「えっ？もういたの？」
船のすぐ側に、いるかが３頭。くじらが２頭。
スナックフードを食べている暇もありません。

ハワイの鯨は警戒心が無いのかな？
船の側を離れる様子も無く、しばらくムナビレを振ったりして
その様子は、まるで手を振ってくれているかのよう・・・

その後も、2時間のクルーズの間、かなりの確率で
鯨に遭遇。
一度、海に沈むと20分は息が続くと言われる鯨さん。
潮を吹いているのを見つけては、高速で移動。
近づいては、エンジンを止めての繰り返し・・・
この日は、あまりにも、鯨に遭遇したせいか
最後の方には、皆さん、飽きてきたかも。
前日に、参加した方々は1回だけ遠くに観たそうです。

この日は、お天気もよく、きっと運も良かったのだとは
思いますが、たくさんの鯨に出会えて
この船に乗ってよかったです。

個人的には、日焼けするくらい甲板に出ずっぱりで
デジカメ画像は、気が付いたら100枚を越えていました。
夢中で鯨を追いかけた時間、楽しかったです！

海から見る、ハワイ島の風景も素敵でした。

I saw whales multiple times!! くじら何回も見ました！！

Reviewed by: さとみん

I went on February 18. It was early in the morning and I was sleepy, but the weather was nice and perfect for seeing dolphins.

All the participants were Japanese. The staff spoke Japanese well (there were also Japanese staff), so I had no trouble with conversations at all.

When we went out to sea, other tours (like Dolphin University) were already lined up to see dolphins, so we explored the sea in the meantime.

And then, there was a whale!! Someone from our tour spotted a whale under the boat. It was so exciting. We were able to see a whale spouting water several times up close afterward, which was amazing. The staff said that this was quite rare.

To swim with the dolphins, we went close to them by boat and then dove into the sea! However, since they were moving, it was difficult to swim right next to them. But on my second try, I was able to swim close enough to see them clearly.

The waves were rough, so the sea turtles were swimming near the bottom, but I was able to see them. Unfortunately, there were no fish. The boat ride was fast and really fun.

And since it was winter, it was cold. A wetsuit is essential. I thought about only bringing small change, but I was glad I heard in advance that I would need $10. After getting wet, it was cold to move against the wind, so something to wear over was necessary.

One person got seasick, so if you're worried about that, it might be a good idea to take motion sickness medication beforehand.

Overall, I was satisfied because I was able to see both the whale and the sea turtles. I even bought the DVD.

２月１８日に行きました。
朝早くて眠かったですが、お天気もよくいるか日和★

参加者はみんな日本人でした。スタッフの方も日本語が上手で（日本人もいました）会話には全然困りませんでした。

海に出ると既に他のツアー（イルカ大学など）がイルカを見るために並んでいたのでその間に海を散策。

と、クジラがいました！！
同じツアーの人が船の下にいるクジラも発見。大興奮でした。その後も数回潮を吹くクジラが近くで見られ、大感激。
スタッフの人もこんなことは珍しいといっていました。

イルカと泳ぐのは近くまで船で行って海へダイブ！するのですがやっぱり動いているのですぐ近くで泳ぐのは難しかったです。
が、２回目のトライで目視できるほど近くで泳いでいました。

波が荒かったので海がめも底の方を泳いでいましたが見れました。魚は残念ながらいませんでした。
ボートのライドはスピードがあってすごく楽しかったです。

そしてやっぱり冬だったので寒かった。ウエットスーツ必須です。お金は小銭しかもって行かないでおこうと思っていましたが、１０ドルいると事前に聞いたおかげで助かりました。
ぬれた後は風を切って進むのが寒いので羽織るものなど必要ですね。

１人酔われた方もみえたので、不安な方は酔い止め飲んでおいた方が良いかもしれません。

トータルではクジラもいるかも海がめも見れたので満足です。DVDも買っちゃいました。
