On September 11th, my husband and I participated in this activity. I thought the ocean in Hawaii was beautiful, but I didn't realize just how stunning it could be. Despite going by cruiser, the clarity of the water was amazing; you could see the bottom! Unlike the seas in Japan, there were no seaweed or kelp floating around, and there was no distinct ocean smell.
There were beautiful fish (tropical fish!) and we even got to see sea turtles. We were told that we might not see dolphins, but we encountered two groups of them, and we were able to watch them jump and spin like in a show. Dolphins are so cute! I was truly thrilled!
I really felt that coming to Hawaii was the right choice. It was my first time snorkeling, but I was taught carefully, and since I could borrow a life jacket, I was able to enjoy it even though I'm not a strong swimmer. It was also reassuring to have Japanese staff join us in the water.
9/11に夫婦で参加させていただきました。
キレイだと思っていたハワイの海が、こんなにもキレイだとは思っていませんでした。クルーザーで行くところにもかかわらず、海の底が見える透明感がスゴイ!!日本の海みたいに、ワカメやこんぶが浮いていないし、海独特の匂いもしないんです。
キレイなお魚(熱帯魚~)もいるし、ウミガメも見ることができました。見れない場合もあるといわれていたイルカは、2つの群に遭遇することができ、まるで、ショーのようにスピンしながらジャンプする姿も見ることができました。
イルカかわいい!もう、大感激!!
ほんとに、ハワイに来てよかったねーって実感できました。
シュノーケルは初めてでしたが、丁寧に教えてもらえたし、ライフジャケットも借りられたので、泳ぎが苦手な私でも楽しめました♪日本語スタッフが一緒に海に入ってくれたのも、安心できました。

I absolutely recommend this. My daughter and I participated together. We arrived at Kona Marina in 45 minutes from Waikiki, and it felt luxurious, like we were the owners of the yacht harbor we see on TV. We boarded the boat with a handsome young man, a dandy captain, and a cute Hawaiian girl guiding us. Coffee, tea, water, and canned drinks were all-you-can-drink. The tour guide mentioned that encountering dolphins was not guaranteed, so I thought it would be okay if we didn't see any. However, within 10 minutes, we heard "dolphins" and rushed to the bow, where a pod of dolphins was swimming, including a mother and baby dolphin swimming closely together. The boat kept a respectful distance as we watched, and while learning that dolphins are nocturnal and swim while sleeping during the day, they jumped and spun in the air. I only had my camera, so I missed the shutter chance since they didn't announce when they would jump, but bringing a video camera would be a good idea.
Next, we challenged ourselves to snorkel. After receiving instructions, we headed into the sea, but I struggled with breathing and ended up sputtering. I finally got the hang of it and looked into the water at a depth of 6 meters, where the Hawaiian girl guided us to a spot where sea turtles were likely to be. We saw five sea turtles swimming! Then, we heard from the boat, "Dolphins are here," and when we looked into the water, there was a dolphin swimming right next to us. We could hear the dolphin's "pee" sound. My daughter and I popped our heads up to signal that we saw it. She asked the Hawaiian girl if she could try diving, so she took off her snorkel and fins, exhaled, and tried free diving. After a few attempts, she struggled to go deeper and felt pain in her ears, so she gave up. The Hawaiian girl demonstrated free diving quite deeply.
For some reason, that day, there were only three of us snorkeling: my daughter, myself, and another girl from Seattle, so we could enjoy it leisurely. Others on the boat were watching us. After that, we had breakfast on the boat, which included chicken, bread, salad, fruit, yogurt, and muffins, and it was all very delicious. I decided that I definitely want to snorkel again next time. Thank you so much, Alan1. I had a truly meaningful time.
絶対絶対オススメです。娘と二人で参加しました。
ワイキキから45分でコナマリーナに到着、テレビで見るようなヨットハーバーまるで自分たちがオーナーであるかのようなリッチな気分で船に乗り込み、イケメン風のお兄さんとダンディなボーン船長とキュートでかわいいハワイ娘の3人が案内してくれます。コーヒー・紅茶・水に缶ジュースは飲み放題です。ツアーの案内にイルカとの遭遇は確約ではありませんと書いてあったので、会えなくても仕方ないかぁと思っていたら、10分もしないうちに「イルカ」という声で船首に出てみるとイルカの群れが泳いでいました、親子イルカまでいます、親子仲良く離れずに泳いでいます、船はつかず離れずで進んでいきます、イルカは夜行性で昼間は寝ながら泳いでいると説明を聞きながら見ていると、空中に飛び3回転スピン・2回転スピンをしてくれました、カメラしかもっていなかったので、今から飛ぶぞと言ってくれない為、シャターチャンスは見逃しましたが、ビデオを持っていくといいですよ。さあいよいよシュノーケルに挑戦、説明を受けいざ海へ、息の吸う吐くがうまくいかず、げぼげぼ、こつをつかみ水深6mの海の中をのぞいてみる、海がめのいそうなスポットへハワイ娘が案内してくれます、海がめが泳いでいる、しかも5頭もいるではないですか、そして船から「イルカがきたよ」との合図に海の中をのぞく、すぐ横にイルカが泳いでいる、「ピー」というイルカの声が聞こえる、娘と二人顔を出して、見たの合図、娘はもぐってみたいとハワイ娘におねだり、シュノーケルをはずし、足ひれをはずし空気をぬいて、素もぐり、うまく沈まない、2.3回トライ少し深くもぐって耳が痛いと断念、ハワイ娘は、素もぐりでかなり深く沈んで手本を見せてくれていました。なぜかこの日はシュノーケルをする人が私と娘ともう1人シアトルから来た娘さんと3人だったので、ゆったりと楽しむことができました。他の人たちは船から、私達をウォチングしていました。その後は船のなか、チキン.パン.サラダ.フルーツ.ヨーグルト.マフインの朝食、とってもおいしかったです。次回も絶対シュノーケルをしたいと心に決めた日でした。Alan1ちゃん本当にありがとうございました。とっても有意義に過ごすことができました。

Wow, so cute! I was really nervous about holding onto the dolphin's fin, but dolphins are so smart. They make it easy for someone like me who isn't very good at this, and they go nice and slow. I was worried about being second in line to kiss the dolphin, but that turned out to be totally fine. First, I supported the dolphin's face with both hands and pressed it against my cheek for a photo, then I gave it a kiss while looking at the camera. Next, I held onto the dolphin's fin for a belly ride, swimming all the way to the middle of the deeper pool, but since I was wearing a life jacket, it was all good! The feeling of the dolphin's belly is something you have to experience for yourself. It feels amazing! Of course, I bought the photos; they were a bit pricey, but they really make for a great keepsake, and I even got a frame set.
As for the important stuff, you can bring your valuables to the poolside, so that's reassuring. Wear your swimsuit there, take it off on-site, and put on the life jacket to go. Afterward, you can rinse off with a water shower while still in your swimsuit and change in the changing room. No worries at all! A Japanese person provides explanations and translations from a distance, so make sure to listen carefully! There were also baby dolphins swimming around, which were adorable. I participated in the 10 AM session, and I think I got on the bus to go back around 1:15 PM. I was able to see the dolphin show, and you can eat at the Sea Lion Café. Even though it's called a café, it's just an open terrace, but they serve light snacks like chili dogs and iced café lattes. You can definitely fill up and enjoy yourself. Touching such cute dolphins up close was the best! There was a girl with really long acrylic nails, and I hope she considers that they might hurt the dolphins.
いやー可愛い可愛すぎるー! イルカのひれにつかまれるかすごく不安だったけど イルカって頭イーんだね 駄目な私につかまりやすくちゃんとゆっくりやってくれるよ。順番が2番目でイルカにキスできるか不安でしたがこれも全然OKでした。まずはイルカの顔をを両手てささえて自分のほっぺにあてて、カメラ目線で写真っ次は口にチューしてカメラ目線。その次にいるかのひれにつかまって泳ぐベリーライドっちょっと深いプールの真ん中まで泳ぐんだけどライフジャケットきてるので大丈夫!大はしゃぎイルカのお腹の感触は実際に体験してみてください。ちょーきもちいいよ。写真は勿論買いましたよ ちょっと高いけどほんと記念になるしっ額もセットで買っちゃったよ。 気になるところで・・貴重品はプールサイドまで持っていけるので安心。水着は着て行って現地で脱いでライフジャケットを付けてGO。終了後は水着のまま水シャワーをして着替えルームで着替える感じ 心配はなにもなし!日本人のひとが説明通訳を遠くからしてくれるからよく聞いてね!赤ちゃんのイルカもウロチョロしててかわいかった。10時のに参加したんだけど 1時15分くらいにバスに乗って帰ったのかな?イルカショーも見れたし、ご飯はシーライオンカフェで食べれるよ。カフェって言ってもオープンテラスだけど もちろん軽食 チリドックとアイスカフェラテかな?のんでお腹いっぱい充分満喫出来るよ。ほんとにかわいいイルカをまじかで触れてさいこー チョーつめの長いスカルプつけた子いたけどちょっと考えてもらいたいなイルカちゃんにキズがついちゃうんじゃないかって心配になったよ。

I was drawn to the spiritual concept of "Dolphin & You" and decided to participate.
When I first encountered the dolphins, unfortunately, the timing didn't align for us to swim together, and I was starting to think, "Am I really going to have to go home like this?" However, the leader, Yuriko, and the staff were persistent in their search, and we finally encountered a large pod of dolphins! Just a few inches below me, pairs of baby dolphins and their mothers were swimming! We swam alongside them for a while. Even though I couldn't catch up, they kept coming back, as if they were coming to play with us. There were dolphins winking as they crossed right in front of me and others showcasing impressive spins... they were full of playfulness. I was truly moved.
Additionally, the cheerful staff and Yuriko's engaging talks and attentiveness kept us entertained every second, making me feel like it was "a professional job." I was able to interact with locals, enjoy a homemade lunch with a mini show, and even learn hula from a well-known local teacher. It was all very thoughtful. I felt that the performance was of high quality, well-structured, and based on respect for Hawaiian culture and nature. Given the price, it was definitely not expensive. Thank you, "Dolphin & You"!
「ドルフィン&ユー」さんのスピリチュアルなコンセプトに惹かれて参加しました。
最初にイルカたちに遭遇したときは、残念ながら一緒に泳ぐタイミングが合わず、「もうこれで帰っちゃうのか・・仕方ないかな」と諦めかけていたのですが、リーダーのYurikoさんやスタッフの方たちが粘り強く探してくださって、ついにイルカの大きな群れと遭遇!
自分のほんの数十センチ下を、赤ちゃんイルカとお母さんイルカのペアが、何組も泳いでいます!しばらく平行して泳ぎました。追いつけなくても彼らは繰り返しやってきて、まるで遊びに来てくれているようでした。ウィンクしながら目の前を横切るイルカさんや、見事なスピンを披露してくれるイルカさんも・・彼らは遊び心いっぱいでした。心から感激しました。
それ以外にも、陽気なスタッフと、客を1秒たりとも退屈させないYurikoさんのトークや気配りは、「プロの仕事だなあ」と感じさせました。ローカルの方と触れ合え、お手製ランチにミニshow、現地では有名なフラの先生にフラを習うことができ、至れり尽くせり。ハワイの文化や自然へのリスペクトを基本にしながら、内容も構成も全体によく練られた上質のパフォーマンスであると感じました。これでこの値段は、決して高くはありません。
「ドルフィン&ユー」さん、ありがとうございました!

This was our first time trying Snuba and I don't know where to begin. Hawaii activities was great about following up with us to remind us of our event. The crew for our event was exceptional!!! We had snorkeled the day before with another charter that was good but hands down the crew on this boat was the best. As we boarded the boat they took our pictures and they had a separate film guy that took footage while we were on the boat and under the water in both places we dived. If you're not sure about scuba diving then try snuba first. It allows you the freedom of being under the water without wearing tanks. Good indicator if you're going to like scuba.

I participated in the premium tour. It was relaxing and enjoyable. I sat in the front, and my 8-year-old child was thrilled to be doted on by the guide. The program we received at the reception included a list with pictures of fish, and my child particularly enjoyed checking off the fish they saw. There were comments about the staff chatting amongst themselves being noisy, but I didn't mind it at all. Cold air was coming from below, so it was chilly at my feet. If you're sensitive to the cold, it would be good to bring leg warmers or something similar. The company's website has a diving map, and I aimed for the right side, which supposedly passes by the wrecks more often, but the course changes depending on the sea currents that day, so it ultimately depends on luck. The pilot tries to be fair to both sides, but it felt like the left side had a slight advantage during our trip. It might be a "grass is greener on the other side" feeling. This tour is definitely worth experiencing at least once. Also, since the boarding area is located within the Hilton Hawaiian Village, it's very convenient for guests staying at the hotel. It would be nice if there were discounts for not needing transportation, but unfortunately, that benefit is not available.
プレミアムツァーに参加しました。ゆったりとしていて良かったですよ。一番前に座ったのですが、8歳の子供が解説の係員のお兄さんにかわいがってもらい大喜びでした。受付でもらったプログラムに魚の図入りリストが掲載されており、特に子供が見えた魚をチェックして楽しんでいました。係員同士の私語がうるさいというコメントがありますが、全く気になりませんでした。足元から冷風が出てくるので足元は寒いです。冷え性の方はレッグウォーマーなどを持っていくといいでしょう。同社のHPに潜行マップが載っていて、右側の方が沈没物の横を通る回数が多いと狙ったのですが、当日の海流によって進路を変えるそうで、結局は当日の運次第。パイロットはどちらにも公平になるように操縦してくれますが、乗艦回は左側がやや優勢だった感じ。「となりの芝生」的な感覚かも。一度は体験してみる価値があるツアーです。なお、ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジの敷地内に乗場があるので、同ホテルの宿泊客にはアクセスが大変便利です。送迎が必要ない分、割引があってもよさそうですが、残念ながらその特典はありません。

I signed up for a tour because submarines can't be ridden in Japan, and my child wanted to try it. We traveled by boat to the location of the submarine, but due to lack of sleep, I ended up getting seasick even though the waves were calm. I recommend taking motion sickness medication for those who are prone to getting sick. However, once we were on the submarine, there was hardly any rocking, so my nausea subsided, and I was able to enjoy watching the seabed. I was satisfied to see sharks and swimming turtles on the ocean floor.
潜水艦は、日本では乗れないし、子供も乗ってみたいと言うのでツアーに申し込みしました。船で潜水艦の場所まで移動するのですが寝不足もあって波が穏やかなのに酔ってしまいました。乗り物に弱い方は、酔い止めの服用をお勧めします。しかし潜水艦に乗るとほとんど揺れなかったので酔いも収まり楽しんで海底を見る事が出来ました。海底でサメを見たり泳いでる亀を見る事ができ満足でした。

This time, I participated in a shark tour for the first time. It was just the three of us: my 14-year-old son, my 65-year-old father, and me, 39 years old. My husband, daughter, and mother were too scared and explored the North Shore instead. I took motion sickness medicine before getting on the boat, but the significant rocking made me feel a bit queasy even before diving. The North Shore has bigger waves in winter, so those participating in winter should be prepared.
However, after two groups of foreigners joined us, it was our turn to dive. When we went underwater with our snorkels, we saw beautiful sharks swimming around our cage, and my excitement skyrocketed!! It was mystical and truly beautiful. The staff only understood a little Japanese, but there are manuals written in Japanese, so it’s manageable. My son is saying he wants to do it again!!

While snorkeling may not allow children to observe enough, this experience lets even small children participate and observe the fish, which I think is great. Additionally, since the explanations are given in Japanese, I believe that those who are not good at English can easily join in as well.

The beauty of the Hawaiian sea, the colorful fish, sea turtles, and sharks... I was truly amazed!! But what surprised me the most was the moment the submarine appeared at the venue!! It was quite impressive. Since I was five months pregnant, I couldn't swim in Hawaii, so I enjoyed the Hawaiian sea on the Atlantis submarine. I highly recommend this for those who come to Hawaii but can't or don't want to swim, as well as for small children and elderly people. The tour is divided into Japanese and English sessions, but due to my schedule, I could only participate in the English session, which made me a bit anxious. However, since there were many Japanese people, the guidance was in Japanese, so I was able to relax and enjoy it. I definitely want to take my child on the Atlantis next time~♪ I want to work hard for that.
ハワイの海の綺麗さ、色とりどりの魚、ウミガメ、さめ・・・本当に驚かされました!!でも一番びっくりしたのは、潜水艦が会場に出てくる瞬間!!なかなかの迫力です。私は妊娠5カ月の妊婦でしたので、せっかくのハワイで泳ぐことが出来なかったので、アトランティスの潜水艦でハワイの海を堪能させていただきました。ハワイに来たものの泳げない、泳ぎたくない方や、小さなお子様や年配の方にも本当にお勧めです。ツアーは日本語の回と英語の回に分かれているのですが、スケジュール上、私は英語の回にしか参加出来なかったので少し不安でしたが、日本人が多かった為か日本語での案内でしたので、安心して楽しむ事が出来ました。ぜひ今度は子供を連れてアトランティスに乗りたいなあ~♪その為に頑張りたいと思います。

Swimming with dolphins has been a dream of mine for a long time. Last year, I participated in a tour to swim with wild dolphins, which brought me one step closer to my dream, but this year I was fully prepared to visit Sea Life Park. The experience was richer than last year, and I was filled with incredible anticipation and nervousness as I joined the program. My husband did not participate and acted as the photographer, so I joined alone.
First, I touched the dolphin and was surprised at how smooth it was! I kissed an Akai Maru, a half dolphin and half whale, and took photos. Then, one by one, I held onto their dorsal fins to swim and experienced a foot push where they helped propel me! I was anxious about whether I could do it well, but the dolphins were so skilled that I was able to achieve my dream of swimming with them, which was truly moving! The trainer who assisted us was also very kind and taught us patiently, making it a dream-like experience. I think even children can participate safely!
There were also feeding sessions with stingrays, sea lions, dolphin shows, and interactions with penguins and sea turtles, which were enjoyable even for adults. It might seem a bit expensive, but the Royal Swim is definitely worth it! Given how satisfied I was, it was absolutely justified. The dolphins were incredibly cute! I want to do it again!
P.S. You can have photos and DVDs taken, but I highly recommend having a partner as a photographer, as my husband did, which was really great.
イルカにつかまって一緒に泳ぐというのが、昔からの夢でした。去年は野生のイルカと泳ぐツアーに参加し、夢に一歩近づきましたが、今年は満を持してシーライフパークへ。去年よりも内容も濃くなり、ものすごい期待と上手く出来るかという緊張いっぱいでいざ参加しました。主人は参加せずカメラマンをしてくれ、私1人での参加でした。まずはイルカに触れ思っていたよりツルツルでびっくり!イルカと鯨のハーフというアカイマルとキスをして写真撮影。それから順番に背びれにつかまって泳いだり、足を押してもらうフットプッシュをしました!上手く出来るか不安でしたが、イルカちゃん達が上手で上手くやることが出来、一緒に泳ぐという夢が叶い本当に感動感動でした!!担当してくれた調教師の方も丁寧に優しく教えてくれ、夢のような体験でした。子供さんでも安心して参加できると思いますよ!他にもエイの水槽の餌付けやアシカ、イルカショーや、ペンギン、ウミガメなど大人でも大いに楽しめました。ちょっと高いと思うと思いますが、ロイヤルスイムは絶対やる価値ありです!!あれだけ満足出来るなら充分納得です。イルカが本当に可愛かった!またやりたいです!!

We boarded the boat at the pier and moved to the location of the submarine (it was quite rocky). The view from the second-floor sun deck of the boat was amazing, and I took photos with Diamond Head in the background! (You can go up to the sun deck both on the way there and back.)
From the moment I boarded the submarine, the beautiful blue sea of Hawaii was visible through the large windows. I've never seen anything like it!
The photos I took inside the submarine also captured the underwater scenery beautifully.
I was thrilled and it exceeded my expectations. It was the best~~

I was able to realize a trip to Hawaii for the first time in several decades for my niece's wedding. While I was exploring various options, I learned about your company's campaign and quickly applied, which made this trip possible. I was a bit worried about the low price until I boarded the submarine, but the pickup and everything went smoothly, allowing us to enjoy the experience. Under the sea, there seemed to be fewer corals compared to places like Okinawa, which left me a little wanting, but it was a wonderful experience. I am 70 years old, and my wife didn't quite fit the atmosphere of wearing a long skirt and boarding a submarine, but we enjoyed it without any hesitation.
姪の結婚式で、数10年ぶりでハワイ旅行が実現しました。
いろいろアクセルしている内御社のキャンペーンを知り早速申し込んだところ、今回実現しました。あまり安いので潜水艦に乗るまで心配でしたが、お迎え等スムーズで気持ちよく体験することが出来ました。海の中は沖縄等より珊瑚も少ない感じで少し物足りなさがありましたが素晴らしい経験でした。私は70歳、妻はロングスカートと潜水艦に乗る雰囲気では在りませんでしたが何の抵抗もなく楽しみました。

We thoroughly enjoyed our Kayak lessons and putting what we learned into practice. It was a bonus spotting the beautiful sea turtles while snorkeling.

The ferry ride is short, so I thought I might not need motion sickness medication, but I was glad I took it! On the day of the trip, a typhoon was approaching, and it was quite rocky. Since passengers were unloaded from three submarines one by one, the time spent on the ferry was relatively long.
There is only one restroom for each gender, and it gets crowded, so it's best to go before boarding the shuttle bus.
I was able to see a variety of fish, even more than I expected, and it was fun. I was lucky to see two turtles swimming and a total of five fish at the reef!
連絡船は短時間なので、酔い止めは要らないかとも思いましたが、飲んでおいて正解!当日は台風が近づいていたこともあり、相当揺れました。3艇の潜水艦に順番に乗客を降ろしていくので、連絡船に乗っている時間は割と長かったです。
トイレも男女1つしかなく混んでいるので、送迎のバスに乗る前に必ず行っておいた方がいいですよ。
潜水艦は想像以上に多種類の魚を見ることができ、楽しかったです。泳いでいる亀2匹、漁礁で3匹の計5匹も見ることができ、ラッキーでした。
