Activities chosen centered around my 2.5-year-old daughter
In conclusion, it was an incredibly enjoyable experience!!!
We got to touch dolphins and feed them...
It was a unique experience that we usually can't have, and it seems my child had fun.
The adults who participated together also enjoyed it!
The instructor spoke a little Japanese, which I think made it easier to understand.
Since we booked for two families, it was a great deal to be able to split the photos after the activity, haha. On the other hand, I wanted to film some videos, but once you participate, that's not possible...
Next time, I strongly want to let my child join a longer plan. And for my child to enjoy that, English skills are absolutely necessary. This was a day where I vowed to encourage my child to study English, using this activity as motivation, haha.
2歳半の娘を中心に選んだアクティビティ
結論、非常に満喫の楽しい体験でした!!!
イルカに触ったり、餌をあげたり、、、
普段できない体験ができて、子供も楽しめたようです。
一緒に参加した大人も楽しかった!
インストラクターは少し日本語も話してくれて、わかりやすかったと思います。
1予約2家族で参加したので、参加後の写真を折半して購入できたのはお得でした 笑 逆に、動画を撮ってあげたいなぁ、と思ってたけど参加しちゃうとそれが叶わないのは仕方なし。。。
次回は子供だけでもっと長い時間のプランに参加させてあげたいと強く思いました。 そして、それを子供が楽しむためには英語力が絶対に必要。 このアクティビティを糧に英語勉強にも励んでもらえるように頑張ろうと誓った親父の1日でした 笑

It was an experience with professional hospitality. When I jumped off the large boat, I was excited to see dolphins and turtles swimming nearby and along the seabed. For snacks, we were served juicy beef patties in hamburgers, pineapple, snacks, and lemonade. I usually don't get seasick, but I felt a bit uneasy, so I didn't eat and took it back with me (there were some people who got sick). There was also a photographer on site who took pictures for us, which were available for purchase. I was a little anxious about snorkeling for the first time, but I had no worries and enjoyed it. I'm glad I participated and I recommend it.

I participated in late November.
I think there are seasonal issues, but the waves were strong and the current was fast, causing many people to get seasick.
I saw that the boat is new and large, which supposedly makes it less shaky, but don't get your hopes up. The boat rocked, and after going into the rough sea with waves and strong currents two or three times, it really drained my energy and made me more prone to seasickness! For those participating, if you determine that the current is strong, I think it's better to just float and look down rather than trying to swim. Even if you're confident in your swimming skills, it's not just about that. Please be careful not to overestimate your abilities.
I was able to see dolphins both on the boat and in the water, but that's purely a matter of luck. I've seen promotional photos where many dolphins come close, but you shouldn't expect that. I think many people only catch a glimpse of them from a distance.
If you're just looking to see dolphins, there are other places where you can see and interact with them. You can also go snorkeling in beautiful, calm waters elsewhere. Unless you really want to see wild dolphins, I wouldn't particularly recommend this experience.
11月下旬に参加。
時期的な問題もあると思うが波があり潮の流れも早く、
多くの方が船酔いしていました。
船が新しく大きいから揺れにくいというのを見たけど
期待してはいけません。
船上で揺れた上、波があり潮がキツイ海に2度、3度入るとかなりの体力を消耗し、酔いやすくなります!
参加される方は、潮がキツイと判断したらただ浮いて下を見て浮いてるくらいに留めておいた方がいいかと思います。
泳ぎには自信があってもそういう問題ではないのだなと感じました。とにかく過信しないようにして下さい。
船上でも海中でもイルカを見れましたがこればかりは運です。プロモーションで多くのイルカが近くに寄ってきている写真を見ますがこれは期待してはいけません。かなり遠くで一瞬見れただけという人も多いと思います。
イルカだけなら他にも見れますし、触れ合える場所もあります。綺麗で穏やかな海でシュノーケリングも他で出来ます。
野生のイルカをとにかく見たい!という方以外には特にオススメするものでもないかなあ

We participated as a family of three. At first, we were unsure if the adults should just observe, but since participation was required for guardians with children under 10, we decided to join in. (If there's one person observing, you can take your own videos and photos from a distance in addition to the purchased photos.)
Since we arrived at 9:30 AM, we enjoyed seeing sea turtles and dolphins swimming in the pool until our experience at 11:45 AM, making it feel like a mini aquarium. During the sea turtle lecture, we even got to touch baby sea turtles, which I think is something you can't experience in Japan.
The pool was a bit deep, so it was definitely necessary to have someone accompany the children. The Japanese staff explained how to swim and interact, and when it was time to swim, they provided encouragement, making it a safe and enjoyable experience.
I'm glad we splurged on this. It became a wonderful memory. Throughout the journey, the driver kindly explained things in front of beautiful beaches and pointed out when we could see whales, making it a lovely tour.
親子3人で参加しました。最初は大人は見学にしようか迷いましたが10歳以下は保護者参加必須だったので参加にしました。(見学が1人いると購入写真以外に自分で動画や遠くからですが写真が撮影できます)
お迎えから到着が9時半だったので11時45分の体験まではウミガメを見たりプールで泳いでいるイルカを見たり水族館みたいに楽しめました。ウミガメのレクチャーではウミガメの赤ちゃんのタッチができたりと日本では体験できないと思います。
プールは少し深めなので子供の付き添いがやはりいるなと。泳ぎ方やふれあい方は日本人スタッフさんが説明してくれましたし、いざ泳ぐときも声掛けがあって安心で楽しく過ごせました。
奮発してよかったです。いい思い出になりました。道中は運転手さんがきれいなビーチ前で説明やクジラが見えたよと声もかけてくれたりと優しいツアーでした。

The staff were very good at getting everyone excited and were great at talking. On the bus to the coast and when we first boarded the boat, they talked about various things like the spinner dolphins we were going to see that day, Hawaii, and snorkeling. I was particularly anxious since it was my first time snorkeling, but they answered any questions I had.
Dolphins are spotted visually rather than using radar, so everyone looked out at the sea together, fostering a sense of unity among all the passengers.
Not only did we see spinner dolphins, but we also spotted wild bottlenose dolphins, and there were many large sea turtles swimming around.
The ocean was incredibly beautiful, and I thought, "This is definitely Hawaii."
スタッフさんはとても盛り上げ方が上手で話し上手でした。
海岸まで行くバスの中や、船に乗り込んだ最初は、この日見に行くハシナガイルカのこと、ハワイのこと、シュノーケルのことなどいろいろ話してくださいます。
特にシュノーケルが初めてで不安はありましたが、聞けば何でも答えてくれました。
イルカはレーダーなどではなく、目視で見つけるため、全員で一緒に海を眺めたりして、乗っているみんなの一致団結力も芽生えます。
ハシナガイルカだけではなく、野生のバンドウイルカも見ることができたり、大きなウミガメもたくさん泳いでいました。
海はとっても綺麗で、さすがハワイだなーと思いました。

It's natural, so there's nothing we can do about it, but even though we floated for 40 to 50 minutes, we only got to see them for a few seconds. The guide, Sean, said, "Did you see them? There were two, right? That's great!" but the truth is, there wasn't even time to take a photo. Plus, they were small. Is there a season when you can see large mantas or multiple mantas? In any case, it didn't feel like we really saw them. I was disappointed because I had the image of the whale sharks I saw in the Philippines in mind.
自然モノですから仕方ないのですが、40〜50分は浮かんでいたのに見れたのはほんの数秒でした。ガイドのショーンは「見れた? 二枚居たでしょ? 良かったね」と言っていたけれど、実際のところ写真を撮る暇もなかった。しかも小さい。大きなマンタ、はたまた何枚ものマンタを見れるシーズンがあるのでしょうか? いずれにせよ、見た感は無かった。フィリピンで見たジンベイザメのイメージがあったので、残念でした。

We participated as a family. The manta rays appeared right away, but they were a bit far away, so I thought, "Well, this is how it goes." However, as time passed, more and more came—five in total! (I hear manta rays are counted one by one.) They approached with their mouths open, almost as if I could be swallowed! It was incredibly moving!
What I regret the most is not having photos from that moment. I really hope there are rental options available for use on the day. If you're participating, it's definitely better to bring your own! You’ll be able to take some amazing pictures.

I think my enjoyment was also due to my complete lack of issues with English. Since communication with the trainers and the reception staff is in English, I imagine that those who lack confidence in their English conversation skills might only enjoy about 70-80% of the experience.

I participated five years ago, and although it was tough, it became a wonderful memory, so I joined again this time, but I was disappointed.
The meeting time was set for 5:55 AM, but the staff arrived more than 30 minutes late. During that time, a staff member from Dolphin University came, but without saying a word to the anxious middle school participants, they only took attendance for the university participants and left. The staff who arrived late, including someone who claimed to be the president, only said, "I'm sorry for the trouble," without explaining why they were late. They repeatedly mentioned how hectic it was, but that doesn't concern the participants. I believe they should at least properly explain the circumstances behind the delay.
We set out to sea about 30 minutes late, but in the end, we only saw dolphins for a few seconds. Later, several staff members told us, "The dolphins were far away today." I understand that luck plays a role, but I couldn't help but think that if there hadn't been a delay, we might have seen more.
Five years ago, we entered the sea multiple times to see dolphins, but this time we only saw them for a few seconds before moving to a shallower area to snorkel at a spot with coral. Honestly, there are other places with prettier coral than here, and I felt that it wasn't necessary to do this in Hawaii.
During snorkeling, I was told beforehand that it was okay to remove flotation devices, but since no one had taken them off, I asked a woman who seemed to be the captain for confirmation. Without looking up from her phone, she said, "If you can swim, then," which felt a bit rude.
I also purchased photos, and while we were able to take turns on the boat, the only photos taken while swimming were group photos. I was diving to see turtles while snorkeling, but there were no pictures of me or my friend in the water, so I would have appreciated more consideration for capturing moments in the sea.
I understand that the situation with the dolphins depends on luck, but this time, I was disappointed with the staff's response in various aspects.
5年前にも参加し、ハードだったけどすごくいい思い出になったので再度参加しましたが、今回はガッカリしました。
05:55という早朝の集合時間でしたが、スタッフが来たのは30分以上過ぎてから。途中イルカ大学のスタッフが来ましたが、不安な顔をしている中学の参加者に一声もかけずに、大学参加者の点呼だけ取って行ってしまいました。
遅れてきたスタッフも学長だという方も「トラブルでバタバタしてすいませんでした」と言うだけで、なぜ遅れたのか理由も説明されませんでした。バタバタして大変だったと何度も言われましたが、大変だったのは参加者側には関係ないことです。なぜ遅れたかの事情の説明くらいはきちんとするべきだと思います。
30分ほど出航が遅れた状態で海に出ましたが、結局イルカが見れたのは数秒だけ。後から複数のスタッフに「今日はイルカが遠くに行ってた」と言われました。運に左右されるのは理解してますが、遅れなければもっと見れたかもしれないんじゃ?と思わざるを得ませんでした。
5年前は何度か場所を変えてイルカを見に海に入りましたが、今回は数秒見てイルカは終了、浅めの場所へ移動してサンゴがあるところでシュノーケルになりました。正直ここよりサンゴが綺麗な海は他にあるし、わざわざハワイでしなくてもいいなあという感想でした。
シュノーケルの際、事前に浮具を外してもいいと言われていましたが、誰も外していなかったので確認のために船長?の女性に声をかけた際、顔も上げずに携帯を見ながら「泳げるならね」と言われたのもちょっと感じが悪かったです。
また写真を購入しましたが、船上では順番に撮っていただけましたが、泳いでいる最中の写真は集合写真のみ。シュノーケルでカメを見に潜ったりしてましたが、私と友人の海での写真は一枚もなかったので、海でも満遍なく撮影するよう配慮していただきたかったです。
イルカの状況が運次第なのは納得していますが、今回はいろんな面でスタッフの方々の対応が残念でした。

The night sea is a bit scary, but I was able to see manta rays up close! They seemed smaller than I expected. I think it was along the coast near the airport. Mantas around Keauhou might be larger. However, it was a wonderful experience to see their bellies and mouths so clearly! The staff is friendly, but there is only one Japanese guide for the mixed tour with foreigners. Be careful after coming out of the water, as it gets cold! It's better to have a bath towel or something to wear.

I thought snorkeling would be about swimming close to dolphins, but what I actually saw was dolphins swimming quickly below. After the snorkeling ended and we got back on the boat, I was lucky enough to see a large group of dolphins up close, and I thought it would have been great to snorkel with them at that moment! I heard that this was still considered lucky.
However, since it’s nature, I had to convince myself that it can’t be helped. The dolphin snorkeling was a bit disappointing in that sense, but unexpectedly, I also got to see turtles while snorkeling and tried stand-up paddleboarding for the first time, which was really fun. The staff were great too! The weather was beautiful, and it was a really enjoyable experience.
Since it’s nature, I guess luck with the weather plays a role, and while it was different from my image of dolphin snorkeling, I had a great time.
シュノーケリングでイルカ、思ってたのは近くでイルカと泳ぐという感じだったけど、実際見れたのは、下の方を早いスピードで泳ぐイルカを見る、というものでした。
シュノーケリングが終わり船に上がってからの方が、運良く近くでイルカの群れを大量に見るという感じで、この時にイルカと一緒にシュノーケリングできたらいいなぁと思いました!これでも運が良いらしいです。
でも、自然が相手だからしょうがないかな、と自分を納得させ。
イルカシュノーケリングはそういう意味で期待外れだったけど、まさかのシュノーケリングで亀も見れたし、はじめてSUPをしてみたりと、とても面白かったです。スタッフの方もいい感じでした!晴天ですごく良かった、面白かったです。
やっぱり自然相手なので、天気など運も関係するのでしょう、イルカシュノーケリングのイメージとは違ったけどとても楽しめました。

The early morning pickup was surprisingly ahead of schedule! It wasn't Hawaiian time! (laughs)
It took about an hour to reach the harbor. We had to wait on the boat for a while before encountering dolphins. However, we eventually came across a pod of dolphins!
When jumping into the water, you need to go with momentum; otherwise, it might be scary for those who aren't used to diving or snorkeling. We changed locations a few times and dove three times in total. It was quite intense (of course, it's okay to stay on the boat if you get tired).
Unfortunately, we didn't see many dolphins underwater, but after getting back on the boat, we encountered a pod of nearly 100 dolphins! After dolphin watching, we moved to a snorkeling point where we saw turtles and played with stand-up paddleboarding (SUP).
It was quite a packed experience, and the crew was cheerful, making the time fly by. I would love to participate again.
Oh, the eco-bag that serves as a substitute for a graduation certificate can be picked up at the Waikiki office (2nd floor of Waikiki Shopping Plaza) after returning to Waikiki. Surprisingly, it comes in handy for shopping in Japan, so I recommend getting it! (laughs)
1早朝のお迎えでしたが時間よりも早くバスが迎えにきました。ハワイアンタイムではないことに驚き!笑
1時間ほどで船着場へ。
参加した会は中々イルカに出会えず暫く船上で待機をしました。が、無事イルカの群れに遭遇!
海に飛び込むときは勢いで行かないとダイビングやシュノーケルに慣れていない人は怖いかも…
何箇所か場所を変えて計3回ダイブしました。
結構ハードです(勿論疲れたら船の上に残っていてもOK)
残念ながら水中ではあまりイルカの姿を見られなかったのですが船に上がった後に100頭近くの群れに出会えました!
イルカウォッチの後はシュノーケルポイントへ移動して亀を見たりSUPをしたりして遊びました。
かなり盛り沢山でクルーの皆さんも明るくあっという間に時間が過ぎていきました。
また参加したいです。
あ、卒業証書替わりのエコバッグはワイキキに帰った後ワイキキのオフィス(ワイキキショッピングプラザ2F)へ貰いに行くパターンでした。
これが意外と日本で買い物をする時に使えるので貰っておくのがオススメです笑
ALOHA!

I participated in Shark Watch for the first time. The staff were kind, and I had a very enjoyable time. The sharks don't come towards the cage, so it wasn't too scary to see them.
はじめてシャークウォッチに参加しました。
スタッフの方々も優しく、とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
サメは、ゲージ自体に向かってくることもないので、そこまでの怖さもなくサメを見ることができます。

We had a great time. Despite Neptune whipping sand up into the water making the clarity poor the crew made up for it and ensured we had a great time. We still saw green sea turtles both below and above the water. We had a great time just sailing the Cat when it was clear that snorkeling conditions weren't great.

I was thrilled to see dolphins so clearly! I didn't expect to see them up close, so it was truly moving. The slide activity was incredibly fun!
イルカがばっちり見れて最高でした!
こんなに近くで見れると思ってなかったので感動でした。
アクティビティの滑り台が最高に楽しかったです!
