We participated as a couple in our 60s. There was no anxiety because the Japanese staff member, Takako, kindly taught us everything. Once on board, we were served juice, bread, and fruit, and then we set off. At Molokini Island, we snorkeled in the beautiful sea, and during the transfer to a spot where we could see turtles, lunch was served. We had the choice of a hamburger or a hot dog. We were able to see turtles as well, and we were very satisfied.
60代の夫婦2人で参加しました。
日本人スタッフのタカコさんが親切に教えてくださったので不安なことはありませんでした。乗船するとジュースとパン、フルーツが配られて、出発です。モロキニ島ではきれいな海でシュノーケル、その後亀が見られるスポットに移動する間に昼食が配られます。ハンバーガーかホットドッグのチョイスでした。亀も見ることができ、大満足でした。

I participated in September. The staff were all very kind, and the instructions were provided in both English and Japanese, which was very considerate. I was a bit anxious since it had been a while since I went snorkeling, but they explained in detail how to put on the gear, safety tips, and what to do if water gets in, which made me feel at ease. Not only did I see dolphins (including mother and baby dolphins!), but I also got to see turtles and even some rare seals, making it a truly fulfilling trip! When I go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to experience this tour once more.
9月に参加しました。スタッフの方々は皆さんとても親切で、インストラクションも英語・日本語交互で行われる丁寧さがありました。シュノーケリングが久しぶりだったので不安でしたが、付け方や注意点、水が入ってしまった時の対応方法等を細かく説明してくださったので安心しました。イルカ(親子イルカも!)だけでなく、亀や珍しいあざらしまで見れて、本当に充実した旅になりました!またハワイに行くときは、ぜひこちらのツアーをもう一度体験したいです。

At the first point, we didn't encounter any manta rays, so we moved to a spot where we could meet them while holding onto the pole. Then, illuminated by the light, a manta ray appeared beautifully as if it was glowing. It was truly breathtaking. After that, it seemed like the manta was greeting us, spinning around and opening its mouth wide to suck in plankton, which excited us every time we saw it. The water temperature was a bit low, and by the time we returned to the boat, we were shivering. However, we received hot chocolate on the boat, which warmed up both our salty mouths and cold bodies a little. Thanks to the Japanese guide's attentiveness, we were able to enjoy the tour without any worries. Thank you very much. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting the Big Island.
最初のポイントではマンタは現れなかったので、私達はポールにつかまったままマンタに遭遇できるポイントまで移動。すると光に照らされてまるでマンタが光っている様に美しく登場しました。大感激です。その後も挨拶でもしてくれてるかの様にクルクルと回転したり、口を大きく開けてプランクトンを吸い込んでいる様子がみれて、その度に大興奮でした。水温が少し低くて船に戻る頃にはガタガタ震えてしまいましたが、船でホットチョコのドリンクを貰い塩っぱい口の中も寒い体も少し温まりました。日本語ガイドの方が気を配って頂いたので何も不安なくツアーを楽しめました。ありがとうございました。ハワイ島に行く方には、是非参加する様勧めたいと思います。
Since we will be leaving in the evening, we can also enjoy the sunset. It will be cold once we get on the boat, so I definitely think a large towel is necessary.

We went snorkeling at an incredible spot where we saw so many turtles—it was absolutely unforgettable!

After participating in a dolphin tour on the Big Island, I thought about challenging myself with "Manta" for ten years, and I finally got to join the "Manta University Night Course." Since it was a night course, I had the image of "dark seas being scary," which made it hard for me to take the plunge. However, as I've gotten older, I thought this might be my last chance, so I decided to participate. But there was not even a hint of darkness in the sea; it was amazing to see the mantas "swimming gracefully like they were flying" and I was so moved that I was almost able to touch one.

We went out about 30 minutes offshore to search for dolphins. The boat was a speedboat, which might be a bit confusing for those who have participated in snorkeling in places like the Okinawa islands. The snorkeling gear and life jackets were basic, so if you have your own, it's better to bring them along.
The staff were friendly, and there wasn't a photographer as mentioned in the reviews, which made for a fun experience. The Japanese staff were kind and took good care of the children! I wanted to buy some photos, but the original tour price was already quite high. I thought it would be better if the photo cost was included in the tour price, so we could board with peace of mind.
It seems that there were fewer Japanese participants, and there were many English-speaking guests, which allowed us to enjoy the overseas experience.
However, I would like to see improvements in the pickup process. A Japanese staff member came to confirm at 5:30 AM before the driver arrived, and we waited for 40 minutes. It seems there were some issues with the driver, and some Japanese guests were unable to join the tour.
I think it was a good tour since we saw dolphins three times.
I don't think all hotels have the same 5:30 AM pickup, so I would appreciate adjustments to the timing and more reliable pickups.
港から30分ほどの沖合までイルカを探しに行きます。ボードもスピードボードで、沖縄離島などでシュノーケル参加した方などは戸惑われるかと。
シュノーケルもライフジャケットも簡易的なものです。持ってる方は、自分の物を持って行った方が良いです。
スタッフの方はノリが良く、口コミにあったようなカメラマンさんは居なくて楽しく過ごせました。日本人のスタッフさんは、子ども達にも優しく面倒見てくださいました!写真買いたかったけど、元のツアー代もまあまあするし、高いなあと。それならいっそツアー代金に組み込んでくれたら安心して乗り込めるのにとも思いました。
かなり日本人の方の参加は少なくなっているようで英語圏の方が多く、それはそれで海外を楽しむことができました。
ただ、、、ピックアップの仕方は改良求めます。先に日本人スタッフの方が5時半に確認に来られてからドライバーさんが来ますが、40分待ちました。ドライバーさんのミス?でピックアップしてもらえず、ツアーに参加できなかった日本人の方もいるようです。
3回イルカにも会えたしいいツアーだと思います。

I saw many comments about seasickness, so I took motion sickness medication beforehand and participated. However, the time to reach the sea turtle spot was shorter than I had imagined, and the rocking of the boat wasn't too severe. The staff provided detailed explanations and kindly encouraged everyone to take photos on board. When we arrived at the spot, each person jumped into the sea, but before that, they checked our snorkeling masks.
We were able to see a total of five sea turtles. In the water, everyone could swim freely, and it felt like we each returned to the boat after fully enjoying the experience. Since I got cold in the sea, it was helpful that there was a restroom on the boat. Although the public restroom at the meeting point was unavailable, there was a notice indicating that we could use the restroom at the hotel right in front, which I appreciated.
船酔いするというコメントが多かったので、事前に酔い止めを飲んで参加しましたが、想像していたよりもウミガメスポットまで移動する時間も短く揺れもそんなに大きくなかった印象です。スタッフは細かい説明もしてくれますし、船内で写真を撮るために声掛けもみんなにしてくれて親切でした。スポットに付くと一人ずつ海に飛び込むのですが、その前にシュノーケリングマスク装着のチェックもしてくれました。
ウミガメは延べ5匹見れました。海の中では各自が自由に遊泳できたし、充分満喫してからそれぞれが船に戻る感じでした。海で体が冷えたので、船内にトイレがあったのも助かりました。集合場所にある公衆トイレは使用できなかったですが、すぐ前のホテルのトイレが使用できるとの張り紙があり使わせていただきました。
For those who are prone to motion sickness, I recommend taking anti-nausea medication just in case. Since the sun is strong, it's also a good idea to properly prepare with sunscreen.

- If you're worried about guidance in English, it's good to let the staff know in advance, as they will pay attention to you.
- The meeting point is in front of the public restroom next to the Prince Hotel. If you're unsure, it's better to ask the hotel staff.
- It was written that drinks and snacks were included in the tour, but it didn't feel like they were being handed out. When I asked for juice, I was told it would be $4, and they showed me a menu card where the prices were indeed listed. When I confirmed that I was participating in the free drink plan, they said, "OK, then it's free!" It was a bit inconvenient that I had to confirm this myself.

We participated with two children, aged 10 and 7, and three adults. There were only two Japanese couples in our group, along with people from France, Canada, and South Korea, making it a multicultural experience. They asked if we were okay with English, and when I replied that I could understand a little, they kindly gathered the Japanese group and earnestly explained safety points while reading from their smartphones in Japanese. I was really touched by their effort!
The children, who were snorkeling for the first time, were a bit anxious at first, but just five minutes in, they were having so much fun! A sea turtle surfaced right where my daughter was, and even though the crew told us to stay back, it came closer. We ended up face to face, just 20 centimeters apart, which was an incredible experience. We also saw a couple of turtles, and the underwater world was truly moving; it was such a wonderful place.
I thought that if you go to Hawaii, you really shouldn't miss this. I will definitely use this service again next time. Thank you very much!

With a crew of six, including Japanese staff, we set sail on a new boat with a capacity of about 40 people, under clear skies and gentle winds—perfect weather. After about an hour without spotting any dolphins, we received news of a dolphin sighting from another boat. We rushed to the spot and found the dolphins, and with the signal "GOGO," we took turns jumping into the sea. We were able to see a pod of five dolphins swimming together! After returning to the boat and moving a bit further, we encountered a large group of dolphins! With the second "GOGO" signal, we dove in again. Amazingly, more than ten dolphins swam close to us, including a baby dolphin! Everyone was able to swim with the dolphins. After that, we snorkeled in shallow waters. My wife and I had to retreat to the boat early due to seasickness. I wish we had taken motion sickness medication beforehand. Other guests were also feeling unwell, so it's essential to prepare for seasickness. Thank you to Ryuichi and all the crew for an incredible experience! Mahalo!
日本人のクルーも含めて6名?のスタッフと、快晴かつ風も弱い、最高の天気の中、40名?定員の新しい船で出航。1時間ほどイルカが見つからない中、仲間の船からイルカ目撃の知らせ。スポットへ急ぎイルカを発見、GOGOの合図で順々に海へ飛び込む。5頭のイルカが群れで泳いでいる所を見ることができました!1度船に戻り少し走ると、たくさんのイルカの群れが!GOGOの合図で2度目のダイブ。なんと10頭以上のイルカが次々に近くを泳いでくれて、こどものイルカまで!全員がイルカと泳ぐことができました。その後は浅瀬でシュノーケル。私と妻は船酔いで早めに船上へ退散。酔い止めを飲んでおけばよかった。他のお客さんもAlohaしてる方がいたので、船酔い対策は必須ですね。Ryuichiさんはじめ、クルーの皆さん最高の体験をありがとうございました!Mahalo!
If you get seasick or feel nauseous from snorkeling, make sure to bring motion sickness medication! It can be painful if the life jacket rubs against you, so having a rash guard is a good idea.
船酔い&シュノーケル酔いで気持ち悪くなるので、酔い止めは必ず持って行きましょう!
ライフジャケットが擦れると痛いので、ラッシュガードがあると良いです。
Aloha! Kei. Thank you for participating in the dolphin school. We also appreciate the wonderful photos and the five-star rating. It must have felt like "swimming with dolphins" to have over ten dolphins come close to you. You were very lucky!! Thank you for your comments about our Japanese guide, Ruichi. Please do come back and re-enroll when you visit Hawaii again, and make sure to prepare for seasickness as well. Mahalo nui and a hui hou!
アロハ! けいさま。イルカの学校に参加していただき、ありがとうございました。素敵な写真と五つ星評価にも感謝いたします。10頭以上のイルカが間近に来てきれたとは、まさに"イルカと泳いだ"感覚だったのではないでしょうか。とてもラッキーでしたね!! 日本語ガイドのRuichiに関するコメントもありがとうございます。ぜひまた、ハワイにいらっしゃる際には酔い止め対策もして再入学してくださいね。Mahalo nui and a hui hou!

At the initial gathering, I heard that we were the only two Japanese people, which made me a bit anxious. However, our tour guide Ryuichi was kind and taught us thoroughly, and we had a great time. He also explained the history of Hawaii in detail, which was very educational. It was moving to see a mother and baby dolphin. Additionally, the slide from the boat was very impressive and a rare experience. Snorkeling allowed us to see fish and beautiful scenery, which was breathtaking. Thank you very much, Ryuichi!!!
最初の集合時に日本人は私達の二人だけと聞き少し不安な気持ちになりましたが
ツアーガイドのRyuichiさんに優しく丁寧に教えて貰いとても楽しめました。
ハワイの歴史についても丁寧に教えて頂き勉強になりました。
イルカの親子を見ることができとても感動しました。また、船内からの滑り台はとても迫力があり貴重な体験でした。
シュノーケリングは魚を見れて綺麗な景色が見れ感動しました。
Ryuichiさん、今回はありがとうございました!!!
Since the distance to the snorkeling location is a bit far, it is recommended to bring motion sickness medication. Also, the interior of the boat can be very cold after snorkeling, so a towel is essen
シュノーケリングする予定の場所まで
距離が少し遠い為、酔い止めは持参を推奨します。
また、シュノーケリング後の船内はとても寒いのでタオル必須です。
Aloha! Thank you, Mr. Kou, for enrolling at Dolphin University. I also appreciate the wonderful photos of the dolphins you shared and your five-star rating.

I was a bit anxious about whether I would really get to see sea turtles, but I was thrilled to see several of them up close. The staff also entered the water and would point out where the turtles were when they found them. However, the clarity of the water itself isn't that great, so while you can see the turtles up close if they are near, it's hard to see them well if they are a bit farther away. In fact, it's better to take off the mask they provide and see the turtles with your bare eyes as they come up to the surface multiple times. It's moving to see their adorable faces at the same eye level underwater!
Also, from the boat, you can enjoy views of the streets of Waikiki, Diamond Head, and people surfing, showcasing the quintessential Hawaii scenery. It was a lot of fun, combining a bit of cruising as well.
本当にウミガメに会えるのか少し不安もありましたが、何匹も間近に見ることができて感激しました。
スタッフさんも海の中に入り、ウミガメを見つけるとどこにいるかを教えてくれます。
ただ海自体の透明度はそれほどないため、水中でもウミガメが近くにいれば見えますが、少し離れるとよく見ることはできません。むしろ水面に何度も顔を出すウミガメを、貸し出ししてくれるマスクを外して裸眼で見る方がよく見れます。愛らしい顔を海の中で同じ目線で見られて感動します!
また、船上からはワイキキの街並みやダイヤモンドヘッド、サーフィンを楽しんでいる人々など、ザ・ハワイといった景観も充分見ることができ、ちょっとしたクルージングも兼ねてとても楽しめました。
I took motion sickness medication in advance, so I'm not sure if that’s why, but I was able to enjoy the experience without feeling sick at all. The staff informed us beforehand that those who are pro
事前に酔い止めを服用したからなのかわかりませんが、全く酔うことなく楽しめました。スタッフさんが、酔いやすい人は後ろの席に座るとよいと事前に教えてくれるため、酔いやすい方は後方に座るのも良いと思います。

After signing the waiver at the meeting point, we boarded a larger boat. We were given fins and goggles there. The size of the fins can be adjusted after trying them on! It takes about 15 minutes to reach the spot where we can see sea turtles. The boat sways a bit, so if you're prone to seasickness, it might be a good idea to have some motion sickness medication...! Once we started swimming, we were able to see the sea turtles! They were very large, and I was surprised! The guide was also very kind, and even though I didn't understand English, I had a great time! I definitely want to participate again!
集合場所で誓約書にサインして大きめの船に乗船。そこでフィンやゴーグルを渡されます。フィンのサイズは試着した後、サイズ変更可能です!ウミガメが見られるスポットまでは15分程度。少し揺れるので船酔いが気になる人は酔い止めがあった方が良いかもです…!泳ぎ始めるとウミガメの姿も見られました!とても大きくてびっくりしました!
ガイドの方もとても親切で、英語が分からなくても楽しかったです!またぜひ参加したいと思います!
I think it would be convenient to have Google Translate since all the explanations from the guide are in English!
ガイドの方の説明が全て英語なのでGoogle翻訳があると便利だと思います!

The sea was a bit murky, but we were able to encounter sea turtles about 5-6 times. It takes about 10 minutes by boat to get there, and we snorkeled for a little over an hour. It's definitely a good idea to bring drinks, sunglasses, sunscreen, a rash guard, and motion sickness medication.
All the instructions are in English, so having a certain level of English proficiency would be reassuring. There were no other Japanese people besides us, but the crew members were very kind. Each person snorkeled, and when a turtle appeared, they would point out the direction. It felt like everyone swam to see the turtles, so I think being able to swim to some extent would enhance the experience.
Thank you to Captain Jamie, Big Mike, and Seamus!
少し海が濁っていましたが、5-6回ほどウミガメに遭遇する事ができました。
片道10分程度船で移動、1時間強シュノーケリングです。飲み物、サングラス、日焼け止め、ラッシュガード、酔い止めは絶対に持って行った方が良いです。
注意事項等全て英語となるのである程度英語力があった方が安心かと思います。
私達以外に日本人はいなかったですが、クルーの皆さんがとても親切でした。
各自シュノーケルをして、ウミガメが現れるとその方角を教えてくれます。各自泳いでカメを見に行く感じで、ある程度泳げた方が楽しめるかなと思いました。
船長のジェイミーさん、ビックマイクさん、シェイマスさんありがとうございました!

We arrived at the snorkeling spot in no time after departure. Once we put on our gear and entered the water, I was amazed to see colorful fish swimming right in front of me. As I swam towards where the staff pointed, I was thrilled to see a sea turtle swimming gracefully!
All the staff were friendly and provided thorough explanations, so I felt secure participating in the tour. My elementary school-aged child also seemed very happy and enjoyed snorkeling the whole time. I would love to join again on our next trip to Hawaii.
出航からあっという間にシュノーケリングスポットに到着。装具を身に付け、海に入るとカラフルな魚が目の前を泳ぐ姿にびっくりしました。スタッフの指さす方へ泳いで行くと、ウミガメが優雅に泳いでいるのが見えて感動しました!
スタッフはみんなフレンドリーで説明も丁寧なので、安心してツアーに参加することができました。小学生の子供も嬉しそうにずっとシュノーケリングを楽しんでいました。また次のハワイでも参加させていただきたいです。
- You can enjoy not only snorkeling but also the stunning views of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the ocean!

・シュノーケリングだけでなく、沖から見えるワイキキやダイアモンドヘッドの絶景も楽しめます!

We couldn't make a reservation for Hanauma Bay, and we wanted to snorkel with a group of 13. I thought we would bring our own fins and shoes, but instead, we had to leave our shoes in a basket outside the boat and go in barefoot. We were able to borrow fins and goggles. My mother waited on the boat. In August during Obon, the sun was strong and there was no place to hide, so I think it's good to have towels or something. The wind was strong enough to blow away hats. We were the only Japanese people there, and everything was in English, so we struggled a bit, but a kind female staff member helped us in Japanese using her smartphone. I didn't realize that drinks were free after snorkeling, so the person who was informed was able to drink. There was a menu, and they made beautiful cocktails for us.
ハナウマ湾の予約が取れず、シュノーケルやりたいと13人で予約。フィンとか靴は持っていくものだと思ったら、逆に船の外のカゴに靴は置いて行って裸足で入らなきゃいけませんでした。フィンやゴーグルは借りられました。母は船の上で待ってました。8月のお盆は、日差しが強く隠れるとこがなかったのでタオルとかあると良いと思います。帽子は飛ばされるような風です。日本人は私達だけで、全部英語だったので苦労しましたが,優しい女性スタッフがスマホで日本語で教えてくれました。シュノーケル後は一杯無料ということが分からなかったので教えてもらった人は飲めました。メニューもあって綺麗なカクテルを作ってもらっていました。
The free drinks are a big plus. It seems there will be guidance after the last person goes up, so you'll need to go to the back to place your order.
ドリンク無料は大きいですね。最後の人が上がった後に案内があるみたいなので、裏の方に行って注文になります。

I was able to see both sea turtles and dolphins. I was also hoping to see tropical fish while snorkeling, but that didn't happen.
ウミガメもイルカも見ることができました。シュノーケリングで熱帯魚を見ることも期待しておりましたが、それはかないませんでした。
Although it was August, the sea temperature was quite low, so a rash guard and cover-up clothing are essential.
8月でしたが海水温度はけっこう低いのでラッシュガードや羽織る服が必須です。

Thank you very much for participating in Dolphin and You.
We are also truly grateful for your wonderful review.
Encounters with wild creatures are unique experiences in nature, and we are very happy to hear that you were able to meet the sea turtles and dolphins.
It's unfortunate that you couldn't see the tropical fish, but we hope you will have another opportunity in the future.
Thank you for your comments about the sea temperature! Your advice to bring rash guards or something to wear over is very helpful information for those who will be joining tours in the future.
We sincerely look forward to seeing you again. 🌺
