We have been on several Sunset Cocktail Cruises on Maui over the past decade but this was by far our favourite.
The captain and crew were super friendly, knowledgeable & accommodating…they serve everything right to you!
Ukulele Dave was a great addition as well!
All of this + multiple whale sightings made for a great evening and we definitely recommend.

Ocean Encounters Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Sunset & Moonlight Cruise from Kona

Outstanding trip out, small group and great crew!

Reviewed by: Jenny

We arrived slightly late and the crew kindly waited a bit for us. There was only 4 of us which made the experience felt a lot more enjoyable - it was not crowded or noisy! No jostling of people.

Once out there, we got in the water smoothly and saw 2 rays, 3 times. Unfortunately, the ray sightings have reduced in recent years so we considered ourselves lucky! Highly recommend it all round!

This was a great alternative to actual snorkeling. The divers and staff were very informative and very friendly. They made sure everyone was happy and getting the most out of the adventure. However the water was murky and not a lot of ocean creatures. But you see what’s there at that time. Would do again. Certainly an experience we will remember.

The only reason I gave them 4 stars is that we bought water shoes for the trip and found out when we got there it was barefoot only. Would have done things differently had I known.

Bella esperienza!

Bella esperienza, la barca ha tutto l'essenza Ale ed è comoda per passarci un paio di ore, i due ragazzi che ci hanno portato fuori sono stati molto gentili e professionali, conoscono bene la zona è puoi chiederlo tanti consigli su cosa fare nell'isola.
Purtoppo la giornata che abbiamo scelto non è stata delle migliori.. pioveva a tratti e l'acqua era un po' torbida.. non abbiamo visto le balene.. ma vabbè avevamo già messo in conto che poteva succedere, abbiamo fatto un bagno in mezzo all'oceano e abbiamo nuotato con tanti pesci diversi e tartarughe marine. Nel complesso ne è valsa la pena, anche perché abbiamo avuto la possibilità di vedere la costa sud di Oahu da un altra prospettiva, incantevole.
Esperienza consigliata.

Since it's a small cruise ship, one advantage is that if we find a whale, we can get close to it. 小さいクルーズ船だからこぞホエールを見つけたら近くに寄って貰えるメリット

Reviewed by: take2

I participated in a whale watching tour on March 4th. I was torn between a large cruise ship and a smaller one, but I decided to go with the smaller cruise ship, thinking it might get closer to the whales when we spotted them.

At the meeting point, there was no reception, and the staff who were on the returning cruise ship handled the check-in, which left me a bit confused about whether I was in the right place while waiting.

They did move a bit closer, getting within about 100 meters, and I was able to take great videos and photos with my smartphone's 2x zoom.

There were options not just for the five mountains, but also for morning, late morning, and early afternoon, allowing for flexibility in scheduling with other options and making effective use of my time.

　大きいクルーズ船と迷ったが小さいクルーズ船の方がホエールを見つけた際、少しでも近づけるのではと今回申込みをしました

Reviewed by: えがちゃん

On the day of the tour, it was raining on the bus, but by the time we boarded the boat and reached the area where the whales were, the rain had stopped and the sun peeked out, which was great. The color of the sea was very beautiful.

We didn't see any large whales, but we did catch glimpses of what seemed to be a baby whale! We saw its tail several times and parts of its body, which was wonderful.

Inside the boat, snacks, light meals, and drinks were available for purchase. Since the air conditioning inside the boat was quite strong, I think it's a good idea to bring a light jacket.

I believe this is a tour that can be enjoyed by everyone, from the elderly to small children.

当日、バスの中では雨でしたが、、船に乗り鯨のいる場所につく頃には雨も止んで太陽ものぞいてくれたので良かったです。
海の色がとっても綺麗でしたよ
大きい鯨には、会えませんでしたが、、赤ちゃん鯨でしょうか？！何回も尻尾が見えたり、体の一部が見えたり良かったです。
船内では、スナックや軽食・飲み物が有料販売有りでした。
船内が冷房が強いので、、羽織るもの1枚持っていくといいと思います。

サンセットシュノーケリング・クルーズ　ハワイアンディナー＆アルコール4杯付き＜ワイキキ地区ホテル送迎あり／英語スタッフ／コオリナ発＞

It was a very fun tour! とっても楽しいツアーでした！

Reviewed by: カナナ

I participated in this tour in early February 2023. One of the things I wanted to do in winter Hawaii was whale watching, and since my hotel was Aulani, I joined this tour departing from Ko Olina Marina.

It takes about 25 minutes to walk from Aulani to Ko Olina Marina, and about 5 minutes by car. The tour included four alcoholic drinks, so I walked there instead of driving, but I was a bit tired on the way back (^_^;).

Upon arriving at the marina, the check-in area was easy to find. I signed in on the list, received a wristband, used the restroom, and boarded the boat. There were about 15 to 20 guests at that time, but we were the only Japanese group. All the explanations were in English, but a young Japanese male staff member came later to explain in Japanese, and he also supported us during snorkeling, which was very helpful!

After the boat headed out to sea, we encountered a mother and baby whale! I was incredibly excited to see the whales spouting water and their tails coming up to the surface with my own eyes! Since it was an evening tour, we didn’t see any dolphins, but I was very satisfied to have encountered the whales.

After that, we went to the snorkeling point and enjoyed snorkeling. During this time, we encountered a sea turtle. I was moved to see it coming up from the bottom of the ocean for air, floating on the surface, and then returning to the ocean floor, all from a very close distance! The water was a bit cold during this season, but I was glad I participated in snorkeling! After snorkeling, it was chilly, so I changed from my swimsuit to regular clothes in the boat's restroom. The restroom was a bit spacious with shelves, making it suitable for changing. There were two restrooms, one on each side at the back.

After snorkeling, we enjoyed dinner and the sunset. The dinner was served on a single plate, but it was piled high, so I was full! The taste was also delicious. The sunset from the boat was absolutely beautiful.

I think this is a highly recommended activity for those staying around Ko Olina!

2023年2月上旬に参加しました。
冬のハワイでやりたい事がホェールウォッチングで、宿泊ホテルがアウラニだったのでコオリナマリーナから出発するこちらのツアーに参加しました。

アウラニからコオリナマリーナまでは歩いて片道25分くらい、車だと片道5分くらいです。ツアーにアルコールが4本かな？含まれていたので車は使わずに歩いて行きましたが帰りはちょっと疲れました(^_^;)

マリーナに到着して受付の場所はわかりやすかったです。名簿に記帳してリストバンドを付けて、御手洗を済ませてボートに乗り込みます。
この時は15名？20名？？くらいお客さんが居ましたが日本人は私たちのグループだけでした。
色々な説明は全て英語でしたが、若い日本人男性のスタッフさんがあとから日本語で説明しに来てくださって、その後のシュノーケルもサポートしてもらえたのでとても助かりました！

ボートが沖に出て少しするとクジラの親子に遭遇出来ました！肉眼でクジラの潮吹きや海面の上に出てきた尾びれを見られてものすごく興奮しました！夕方のツアーなので時間的にイルカは見られませんでしたがクジラに遭遇出来たので大満足でした。

その後シュノーケルポイントに行って、シュノーケルを楽しみました。この時に海亀に遭遇出来ました。海の底から息をにし浮上してくる様子や海面をぷかぷかしている様子、また海の底に帰って行く様子を近づくことが出来るギリギリの距離で見られて感動しました！
この時期の海はちょっと寒かったですが、でもシュノーケル参加して良かったです！
シュノーケルの後は寒かったのでボートのおトイレで水着から私服に着替えました。おトイレは少しだけ広めで棚とかがあったので着替えスペースも兼ねている感じでした。おトイレは後方左右に1つずつ計2つありました。

シュノーケルが終わるとディナーとサンセットを楽しみます。ディナーはワンプレートですがモリモリに盛ってもらえたのでお腹いっぱいになりました！味も美味しかったです。ボートからのサンセットもすごく素敵でした。

コオリナ周辺で宿泊されている方にはとてもおすすめのアクティビティだと思います～。

There was no validation service, and I couldn't see any whales. バリデーションサービスはなし、クジラも見れなかった

Reviewed by: リルママ

I went to the location by rental car since it was mentioned that there was a validation service. When I showed the parking ticket to the staff and asked about it, I was told that the service is not available this year. It seems there was an error in the information provided, which is disappointing.
During the cruise, I was able to enjoy taking photos of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea.
As the ship was returning to the port, there was an announcement at 9 o'clock that something would be visible, and the ship moved a bit, but then there was another announcement at 10 o'clock, unfortunately, I couldn't see it. It seemed that many others also missed it. Even if some people were able to see it, it appears that rescheduling is not guaranteed for those who couldn't, which is unfortunate.
It is very cold on the ship, so a jacket is a must.

バリデーションのサービスがあると記載されていたので、レンタカーにて現地へ向かいました。スタッフにパーキングチケットを見せて聞いたところ、今年はそのサービスはやっていないとの返答。記載内容に誤りがあるようで残念です。
乗船中は海から見るワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドを写真に撮ったりと楽しむことができました。
船が港へ戻る際9時に見えると放送があり少し船が動いたのでその後10時の方向と放送がありましたが、残念ながら見る事が出来ませんでした。他にも見れなかった方は沢山いたようでした。自身が見れなくても見ることのできた人がいればリスケジュールの保証外となるようで、残念でした。
船上はとても寒いので、上着必須です。

Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran

Awesome Turtle Canyon Snorkel Cruise!

Reviewed by: Rachel D

My fiance and I had such a wonderful time on this cruise! It was our first time snorkeling, and we were a little nervous (for fellow first timers, the apparatus feels a little uncomfortable and claustrophobic on the boat, but feels so much better in the water)! However, the whole crew put us at ease and were super patient with us, helping us to get the perfect fit with our goggles and apparatus. Nicole even gave me one of her hair ties when I forgot mine! The lifeguards were great, helping us to find the best spots to watch turtles and fish, taught us a ton, and even dove down to get an octopus for us to pet. They were great about checking on everyone and making sure we were ok, comfortable, and having fun. The music and mai tais were excellent, and everyone was so friendly and sweet. They offered to take pictures without us even asking! This cruise is such an amazing deal for the price, and was for sure one of the highlights of our first trip to Oahu. My only advice is to be near Duke's at the Outrigger early, there is not super clear signage for where the boat comes in, so go to the bathroom and bring everything you might need so you have time to find the boat. Thanks for an amazing time!

Kona Manta Ray Night Snorkel Tour - Small-Group Adventure from Keauhou Bay

A wonderful way to see the rays!

Reviewed by: Phil

We had an amazing time as the crew was incredibly prepared and accommodating. They were able to fit all of us on board and bring us out without a problem. The guides were very knowledgeable and were helpful in getting in and out of the water. They work together with the other tours in the same space to attract as many rays as possible. We ended up seeing 10 or more rays with a near constant show. We had my 65-year-old mom and dad, my 40-year old self and wife, and our eight and 10-year-old with us, and it was never a problem. A great activity if your kids can stay up a little later and recover the next day.

It's a short boat ride out, but the darkness set off a little of my motion sickness, So if you're prone to that be sure to take some medication ahead of time. I also had a little issue being in the waves and going up and down in the darkness. One of the other participants got fully sick away from the boat but the crew handled it very professionally.

I would absolutely recommend them!
