BOB's Hawaii Underwater Scooter Adventure & Turtle Watching Tour

Fantastic

Reviewed by: Alberta

This was probably my favorite thing I did in Hawaii. I was scared at first and made them bring me up, but I tried again and had to close my eyes as I was being lowered in the water. It was awesome once you got under water and could see all the fish. We got to feed them bread. We even saw a huge sea turtle while we were under there. It was the most unique thing I had ever done and would love to do it again. It's definitely something everyone should try and do while they're there.

I want to meet dolphins again... また、イルカに会いたい・・・

Reviewed by: TK

My spouse and I participated in this tour. When I asked my wife, "What do you want to do in Hawaii?" she replied, "I want to see dolphins!! I want to see sea turtles (honu)!!" So, we signed up for this tour.

My wife, who gets seasick easily, seemed a bit anxious, but we brought motion sickness medication from Japan, and once she took it, she was totally fine. (Even if you forget, no worries! Motion sickness medication is sold at the shop in Ko Olina Marina.) Within 30 minutes of leaving the marina, we encountered dolphins! It was so healing. The dolphins, curious about everything, quickly approached us, jumping around and showing various expressions.

Next, we snorkeled and met honu and various colorful tropical fish... Four honu swam gracefully by. The fish came so close that we could almost touch them. I recommend bringing a waterproof camera.

After that, it was snack time. Everyone enjoyed their meals on the deck or wherever they liked. The kalua pig was delicious.

The boat had a cabin, making it very comfortable! It also had a restroom, which was very reassuring. I had previously gone on another tour to see dolphins, and I remembered feeling cold when coming out of the water due to the sea breeze. However, I didn't feel too cold inside the cabin, but I recommend bringing a long-sleeve shirt just in case.

It was a blissful time for my wife and me that flew by. I want to see dolphins again...

夫婦で参加させていただきました。家内に「ハワイで何したい？」と聞いたところ、「イルカに会いたい！！ウミガメ（ホヌ）に会いたい！！」との返事で、このツアーに申し込みました。
船酔いのひどい家内は多少不安だったみたいですが、日本から酔い止め薬を持参し、薬を飲めば、全然大丈夫でした。（忘れても大丈夫！！コオリナマリーナの売店で酔い止め薬を売ってますよ）マリーナを出て、30分もしないうちにイルカとご対面！！いや~、癒されます。いろんなものに興味津々のイルカたちはすぐに近寄って来てくれて、飛び跳ねたり、いろんな表情を見せてくれました。
イルカの次はシュノーケルでホヌやいろんな色の熱帯魚とご対面。。。優雅に4匹のホヌが泳いでました。手に取れるくらい魚たちが近寄ってきてくれました。防水カメラを持って行かれることをおすすめします。
その後、軽食の時間。船の甲板や思い思いの場所でみなさん、食事されてました。カルアピックがうまかったです。
船はキャビン付きの船なので、すごく快適！！トイレも付いてるのですごく安心。以前、別のツアーでイルカを見に行ったことがあったのですが、その時は海から上がると海風が冷たく感じ、寒い思いをしたことがあったのですが、キャビン内にいるとあまり寒さを感じませんでしたが、長袖一枚もって行かれることをおすすめします。
あっという間のうちら夫婦にとって至福の時間でした。
また、イルカに会いたいなぁ~。。。

I participated in the Premium Submarine tour with a total of 11 family members, relatives, and friends. It was a very valuable experience to see turtles swimming and even sharks. Everyone was thrilled, and I'm glad we joined. However, the boat ride to and from the submarine can make you seasick, and some people who joined us got sick, so if you're prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is a must!

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＞

Increase your time with dolphins depending on your negotiation skills! 交渉力次第でイルカとの時間アップ!～

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I found out that the Dolphin Encounter I had booked in advance wouldn't allow me to swim with the dolphins, so I upgraded to the Royal Swim for an additional $100.

This Royal Swim experience was a lot of fun as I got to be pushed by two dolphins and even stand on the water's surface, which was a bit acrobatic. However, since there were nearly 10 participants during that time, I only had about 10 minutes in total to touch and play with the dolphins (I was in the same pool for about 45 minutes).

At $200 for just 10 minutes of interaction, it felt a bit pricey, so I recommend asking at the reception to change to a time when there are fewer people (you'll need some English negotiation skills as Japanese won't be understood). The group after us had only three people and got to play with three dolphins, so I think that was a better deal.

現地で事前に申し込んでいたDolphin Encounterはイルカと泳げないことが分かり、一気にRoyal Swimにアップグレードしました。(＋$100)　
このRoyal Swimコースは2頭のイルカに足を押してもらい、水面に立てるようなちょっとアクロバティックなことができてとても楽しかったです。ただ、参加者が10人近くいた時間帯だったので、私がイルカを触ったり遊べた時間は合計で10分程度(同じプール内には45分くらいいました)

$200で10分のふれあいは高い気がしましたので、できれば受付で「一番人が少ない時間帯に変更したい」と申し出てみましょう(要英語の交渉力←日本語は通じない)。
私たちの後のグループはわずか3名で3頭のイルカと遊べたので、お徳だったと思います。

North Shore Shark Adventures is the best! ノースショア・シャーク・アドベンチャー最高

Reviewed by: tuyosi

I've been to Hawaii many times, but this time I wanted to join a tour that I had never done before, and I found this one. At first, my wife and I were anxious because the guide only spoke English and it involved sharks, but once we participated, the guide was kind and entertained us with easy-to-understand English mixed with Japanese. When we dove into the ocean, we were overwhelmed by the countless sharks in the incredibly blue sea, but by the end, my wife and I were so into it that we said we wanted to dive even more. I recommend this for those who are familiar with Hawaii and looking for some excitement.

ハワイには何度も行っていますが今回は今までにしたことのないツアーに参加したくてこのツアーを見つけました。

It was fun! However, I did get a bit drunk. 楽しかったですよ！但し酔いますが。

Reviewed by: ぺっか

I participated in September 2006.
Aside from my husband and me, the other tour participants were four white Americans and Australians.
On the boat, the staff provides safety instructions before we enter the cage that is submerged in the sea.
English was sufficient, but there are explanation panels in Japanese for Japanese participants.

As we head out to sea on a private boat, we see sharks appearing one after another.
Then we enter the cage that is submerged in the sea to see the sharks.
It was really thrilling.
They keep throwing food in, so the sharks come one after another.
It was so much fun.

However, since we were offshore, there were quite a few waves. Watching the sharks from a cage that was half floating in the waves made me feel quite seasick.

The nausea hit me more after getting back on the boat.
My husband and an American woman ended up getting sick on the boat.
I found it tough, but I managed to hold it in.
It seems that people often get sick, and the staff casually said, "Feeling unwell? Just throw up outside the boat." They had plenty of water available for us to drink.

Despite those little mishaps, I think it was a very enjoyable experience. I highly recommend it.

2006年9月に参加しました。
ツアー参加者は私たち夫婦以外は、アメリカ人、オーストラリア人の白人が4人でした。
船上でスタッフの方が海中に檻を沈めてから中に入るまでの注意をしてくれます。
英語で足りましたが、日本人用には日本語の説明パネルがあります。

専用のボートで沖に行くと、出るわ出るわサメさんたちが。
そして海中に沈めた檻に入ってサメをみます。
いや~迫力でしたよ。
エサをどんどん投げ入れるので、サメは次々に来ます。
楽しかった~。

でもね、沖合い（？）なので割と波があるんです。その波に半分浮かんだ折の中でサメを見るので、結構酔います。

酔いは船にあがってからの方がきます。
夫とアメリカ人の女性は船上で戻してしまいました。
私はツラかったけど、我慢した。
吐く人はしょっちゅういるみたいで、スタッフさんは「気分悪い？、船の外に吐いて吐いて」みたいな感じであっさりでした。お水もたくさん用意されていて飲ませてくれました。

そんなハプニングもありながら、とても楽しい体験だと思います。オススメです。

Take A Camera!!

Reviewed by: Dr Bob (From the UK)

Great trip, with a very knowledgeable captain and crew.
Bring your underwater camera for some pictures of a lifetime,,,, so you think!
You will be back to enjoy this again.

Visibility was well over 50 feet and the water was a crystal clear deep blue.
When you are in the cage you are totally protected and safe, yet as the sharks come so close you feel as if you are out there with them.

The only bad thing for me were the pretty high waves, which made it difficult to hold the camera still. (As seen from the pictures)

This experience is on the 'To Do on the next trip' list.

I can't believe I can see dolphins up close like this! こんなにイルカを近くで見れるなんて！

Reviewed by: エヴァ

On September 22, I participated in an early morning cruise with friends.

About 30 minutes after boarding the ship, we spotted a pod of dolphins! At first, they swam a little distance away, but gradually they came closer to the boat, and to our surprise, one dolphin swam alongside the bow of the ship! We were thrilled to see the lively dolphins up close from right above the bow. We were able to watch them for quite a while. We even managed to capture on video a dolphin jumping while spinning, which made us very satisfied. Ah, dolphins are such beautiful creatures! They are so healing!

Just as we were basking in that excitement, we moved to a different location for snorkeling. Unfortunately, I couldn't see any sea turtles underwater, but I was surrounded by tropical fish, which was also very soothing. Swimming in the clear ocean felt amazing. After snorkeling, it was time for the much-anticipated lunch. The kalua pig was delicious! I couldn't help but go back for seconds.

The ship was spacious and clean, equipped with restrooms, and thankfully, there were hot water showers available. (It felt really nice after snorkeling since my body was cold.) The guide, who spoke Japanese almost perfectly, provided very thorough explanations, which was great. If I come to Hawaii again, I definitely want to participate once more. Next time, I’ll go for the deluxe option!

9月22日、早起きクルーズに友達と参加しました。

船に乗ってから30分くらいたったでしょうか、いました！イルカの群れ！
最初は少し離れたところを泳いでいましたが、だんだんと船に近づいてきて、
なんと船首の先をイルカが船に寄り添うように泳いでくれました！
私達は船首の真上から、その生き生きとしたイルカの姿を間近で見れて大感激でした。
結構長いこと見れました。
無事、スピンしながらジャンプするイルカもビデオにおさめることができて大満足。
あ~イルカってなんて美しい動物なんでしょう！癒されます！

そんな感動もつかの間、今度は場所を移してシュノーケルです。
私は残念ながら水中で海がめを見ることはできませんでしたが、熱帯魚の群れに囲まれてまた癒されました。
透明度の高い海の中を泳ぐのはとっても気持ちが良かったです。
シュノーケルの後は、お待ちかねのランチです。カルアピッグ、おいしかったです！
思わずおかわりをしてしまいました。

船内は広くて清潔で、トイレ完備、ありがたいことに温水シャワーも出ます。
（シュノーケル後は体が冷えているのでとても気持ちよかったです。）
日本語をほぼ完璧に話すガイドさんの丁寧な説明もとても良かったです。
ハワイに来たら、またぜひ参加したいと思います。今度はデラックスで！

Dolphins, turtles, fish, and coral. イルカに亀にお魚に珊瑚

Reviewed by: ERI

At first, I was worried about getting seasick or whether I could really see wild dolphins so easily. However, the boat was very comfortable, and no one got seasick. Luckily, we saw a lot of dolphins, including two different species, and I was completely satisfied.

We first spotted a mother dolphin swimming happily with her baby. They were so adorable. Next, we encountered a group of dolphins (about 6 to 7). They were all very active, jumping around, and it felt like we were watching a dolphin show.

After that, we went to a snorkeling spot where we saw three turtles, colorful fish, and coral. It felt more like diving than snorkeling. The turtles were quite large and impressive.

After snorkeling, we enjoyed warm coffee, bread, pork, vegetables, and yogurt. It was very delicious after swimming. During our trip, we had a Japanese guide, which made us feel at ease. The weather was cloudy, so it was quite cold after snorkeling. I thought long sleeves would be necessary. In any case, it became a wonderful memory, and I would definitely like to participate again!

最初は、船に酔わないかな？とか、野生のイルカなんてそんなに簡単に見れるのかな？なんて不安もあったのですが、まず船はとっても乗り心地が良く、誰も酔ってる人なんていなかったし、ラッキーにも、イルカはたくさん（しかも２種類も）見れて、もう大満足でした。

イルカは、まずお母さんと赤ちゃんが一緒に仲良く泳いでいるのを発見。とても可愛いらしかったです。次にグループ（６~７頭）のイルカ達に会えました。みんなとっても活発に泳いでいて、ジャンプもしてくれて、まるでイルカショーを見ている感じでした。

その後、シュノーケルスポットに行って、亀は３匹、色とりどりのお魚達に、珊瑚も見れて、シュノーケルと言うよりもダイビングをしたような気分に浸れました。亀もかなり大きい亀達で迫力満点でした。

シュノーケルが終わってから、暖かいコーヒーとパンと豚肉と野菜とヨーグルトを頂きました。一泳ぎの後で、とても美味しかったです。私達の時は、日本人のガイドさんがいたので、安心しました。お天気は曇りだったので、やはりシュノーケル後はかなり寒かったです。長袖は必要かなと思いました。ともかく素晴らしい思い出になりました。また是非参加したいです！

Enjoying the ocean in Hawaii. ハワイの海を堪能

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated on September 16. The weather was clear, and the waves were calm, making it a perfect day for cruising. Although I was worried about seasickness, sitting at the front of the boat on the net, feeling the wind and waves, made those worries disappear.

When the captain guided us to a pod of spinner dolphins, I was even more excited! The staff explained that the name "spinner" comes from their jumping spins. Although I couldn't capture the dolphins jumping repeatedly on camera, their images are etched in my memory. During snorkeling at a different location, I was able to see tropical fish and sea turtles. The staff, who were fluent in Japanese, were very considerate and made the experience even more enjoyable.

If I had to mention one downside, it would be that the waiting time for the bus transfer and cruising was a bit long, which felt somewhat inefficient.

9月16日に参加しました。当日は快晴、波もおだやかで、絶好のクルージング日和でした。船酔いを心配していたものの、船の先頭のネットの上に座り込み、風と波を受けながら進めば、そんな心配も吹き飛びました。
船長の案内で、ハシナガイルカの群れを見つけたときは、更に大興奮！英語でスピナーと呼ばれる由来が、スピンしながらのジャンプだとスタッフが教えてくれました。私達に見せてくれるかのように、何度も何度もジャンプしてくれるイルカの姿はカメラに収めることは出来ませんでしたが、目に焼きついています。場所を移してのシュノーケリングでは、熱帯魚と海がめを見ることができました。日本語堪能なスタッフが色々気遣ってくれ、また、盛り上げてくれ、本当に楽しいツアーでした。
一つだけ難点を挙げるとすれば、バスでの送迎とクルージングとの待ち時間が長く、少し非効率だと思いました。

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。

Reviewed by: ハワイ大好き！naomi

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。

There were so many of them. I expected one or two but there were more then a dozen. Captain Bubba and Brandon were fabulous. My husband didn't want to go but ended up not wanting to get out of the cage because he was having such a blast! Definately something to do again.

シュノーケリングクルーズ　イルカやウミガメに出会えるチャンスも！？選べる8時／12時出港プラン＜ハワイアンプレートランチ＆アルコール4杯付き／ワイキキ送迎あり＞

I encountered wild dolphins and sea turtles! It was amazing. 野生のイルカと海カメに遭遇！最高でした。

Reviewed by: richy-papa

I participated on September 3rd. There were about 40 spinner dolphins, and we could see them clearly from the boat. We also got to see sea turtles gracefully swimming along the seabed while snorkeling. The kalua pig open sandwich was delicious, and the staff provided attentive guidance. I would like to bring my children next time.

９月３日に参加しました。４０頭はいましたね、ハシナガイルカが。船の上からはっきりと見れました。また、海カメも海底を優雅に泳ぐ様がシュノーケルで見れました。カルアピッグのオープンサンドも美味しかったしスタッフも丁寧な案内で、今度は子ども達もつれていきたいです。

Dolphins are cute! イルカかわいいー

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

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。

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 a valuable time with not a single waste. なにひとつ無駄がない、価値のある時間でした

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

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！

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

Snuba Trip

Reviewed by: Nancy

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.

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）＞

We had a great time as a family. I recommend it. 家族で楽しみました。お薦めです。

Reviewed by: もちパパ

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。

You'll be healed by the dolphins! イルカに癒されますよ！

Reviewed by: しげ　じいちゃん

It's a rare event! Everyone was having a great time, shaking hands with dolphins and enjoying playful interactions, forgetting their age. Both the grandchildren and adults were equally excited. It seemed like everyone was greatly healed by the experience. There are also sea lion shows and dolphin shows to enjoy. Just a note, the restaurant is small, so it's advisable to efficiently use the stand shops or prepare simple meals.

珍しい催しですよ！
イルカと握手したり、ホホずりしたり、皆んなお年を忘れて
大はしゃぎでした。
孫も、大人も、はしゃぎようはいっしょでした。
大いに癒された様子でした。
ほかにも、アシカショウやイルカショウがあり楽しめますよ
ご注意は、レストランがせまいので、スタンドショップを
手際よく利用するか、簡単な食事の用意が必要です。
