Hawaii
We enjoyed a submarine tour with our family of four, which was a first for my elderly mother and something we can't experience in Japan.
We took the earliest tour at 8:00 AM. There were only 14 participants on the 64-seat submarine.
According to our guide, when there are so few participants, everyone can sit on one side, allowing us to see areas that are usually not visible from one side. This made for a unique and enjoyable tour. It felt like a lucky coincidence.
We were able to see turtles, sharks, and many fish. Unlike an aquarium, I definitely recommend this for children.
The boat ride to and from the submarine was also not crowded, so we had time to leisurely browse souvenirs, which led to some great memories as I ended up buying quite a few things.
On the return boat, we even had the chance to take commemorative photos with the captain.
高齢の母親が初ハワイということもあり、
日本では経験できない潜水艦ツアーを家族4名で楽しみました。
時間は、朝いちばんの8:00の回です。
64名乗りの潜水艦に、参加者がわずか14名でした。
ガイドさんの話では、
このように参加者の人数が少ないときには、
全員を片側に座ってもらい、
通常は左右どちらか片方した見れないところを
潜水艦に回ってもらい2度見れるというおいしいいツアーになりますと言ってました。
偶然とは言え、得した感じで良かったです。
亀やサメ、多くのさかなを見ることもできました。
水族館とも違い、子どもさんには、絶対にお薦めだと思います。
潜水艦までの往復の船も空いていて、
ゆっくりお土産を見ることも出来たので、
ついついいろいろ買ってしまったのも、いまはいい思い出です。
戻りの船上では、キャプテンとの記念撮影もできました。
It was super fun to see dolphins up close and swimming right in front of me. I was also able to see the dolphins jump. The turtles' relaxed nature made me feel a sense of calm that resonated with me.
イルカが間近に見れたり、目の前を泳いだりしてチョー楽しい。イルカのジャンプも見ることができました。カメののんびりさには自分と同じものを感じて癒されました。
We participated in the Dolphin Encounter with our son, and my husband and I acted as photographers. The encounter had a Japanese-speaking guide, and it seemed like everyone was having fun touching the dolphins, getting kisses, and high-fiving them. However, since there were many participants in each session and everyone wanted to get kisses and high-fives, the waiting time felt long.
I thought it would be nice if they could reduce the number of participants or bring out another dolphin to improve the experience.
In the same pool, they were also doing the Royal Swim, which involved holding onto the dorsal fins of two dolphins and swimming about 10 meters, as well as being pushed along by their feet for another 10 meters. Again, since everyone was doing these two activities, the waiting time felt long.
Since I had visited before, I skipped the dolphin show as it seemed the same. Instead, we had lunch while it was still quiet. On our last day in Hawaii, we ended with a classic American hamburger. Well, the taste was decent.
ドルフィンエンカウンターに息子を参加させ夫婦でカメラマンをしました。
エンカウンターは日本後の説明員がつき、イルカにさわれたり、キスされたり、ハイタッチをしたりと楽しそうでした。ただ、1回の参加人数が多く、全員がキスやハイタッチをするので、待っている間が長かった気がします。
人数を減らすかイルカをもう一頭出すなどの工夫があればなとおもいました。
同じプールではロイヤルスイムをやっていましたが、これも2頭の背びれをつかんで10mくらい泳ぐのと、足の裏を押してもらってこちらも10m位進むのの2つを皆でやるので待ち時間が長いな~と思いました。
一度以前に訪れていたので、イルカショーは同じようだったのでパス。その代わり空いているうちにお昼を食べました。ハワイ最後の日だったので、アメリカらしくハンバーガーでしめました。ま、味はそこそこかな?
It was interesting. The water hardly swayed, and I was able to enjoy watching the fish leisurely. It seems the children had fun too.
面白かったです。水中はほとんど揺れず、ゆったりと、魚の鑑賞を堪能できました。子供も楽しかったようです。
As rumored, the power of seeing a manta up close was incredible.
One thing to note is to not forget your motion sickness medication. You might get seasick.
One point of concern is that for the first 30 minutes or so, you cruise around the bay before starting to prepare to see the mantas. It's unclear whether you're waiting in line because of many competing companies or for some other reason, but cruising around the bay at sunset was not interesting at all...
噂どおり、間近で見るマンタの迫力は凄い迫力でした。
注意点としては、酔い止めを忘れない事。
多分船酔いします。
気になった点として、最初の30分ぐらいは湾内を船で周回(クルーズ?)してからマンタを見る準備をはじめます。
競合他社が多い為に順番待ちをしているのか、何なのか不明ですが、陽が沈んだ湾内をクルーズしても何も面白くありませんでした…。
Thank you for participating in the night snorkeling with manta rays. We are delighted to hear that you were able to see wild mantas up close.
Regarding your feedback about the first 30 minutes of the cruise, we confirmed with the operating company that this time is typically used for explanations and changing clothes. Additionally, when anchoring the boat in the sea, we take into account the sea conditions and the state of the coral reefs, so please understand that it may take a bit longer depending on the day's circumstances.
We look forward to serving you again.
この度は、マンタと泳ぐナイト・シュノーケリングにご参加いただき有難うございます。
野生のマンタを間近でご覧いただけたようで、嬉しく思っております。
なお、ご指摘いただいておりますクルーズ最初の30分間につきましては、催行会社に確認をとったところ、最初の30分間は通常説明を行ったり着替える時間となっているとのことでした。また海で船を停泊する際に、海の状況やサンゴ礁の状態を考慮しながら対応しておりますので、その日の状況により多少時間がかかってしまう場合もありますことご了承ください。
またのご利用心よりお待ちしております。
We've been to Hawaii several times, but this is the first time we canoe surfed. This was such a fun activity, and since we purchased it on sale, the value was great! The men who guided us were so nice! They were so friendly and knowledgeable. Not only was it fun, but extremely interesting. They told us a lot of history about outrigger canoeing. The tour was supposed to be a half an hour, but lasted about an hour. Just a heads up you will paddle so there is a bit of exercise (nothing outlandish). Also, if you get sea sick you may want to take Dramamine, since you have to wait for waves just floating there. I would love to do this again!!
The sea turtles and fish were beautiful!
It's an activity you can enjoy because of the beautiful ocean in Hawaii.
It's definitely worth participating at least once!
ウミガメ、魚など綺麗でしたよ!
ハワイのきれいな海だからできるアクティビティーですね。
一度は参加してみてる価値ありです!
It was my first time participating with my daughter in 20 years. We chose to join during the Japanese explanation time, so I don't understand English. It seems my daughter was satisfied as well. The sea turtles and fish that can be seen in the beautiful ocean are a must-see!
20年ぶりの娘との参加でした。
日本語解説の時間を選んで参加したので、英語がわからない
娘も満足できたみたいです。
綺麗な海の中で見られるウミガメ、魚は必見です!
It was a very valuable experience, and I really enjoyed it!
とっても貴重な経験で、本当に楽しかったです!!
It was truly a fun time meeting dolphins and sea turtles! I'm really glad I participated!
イルカやウミガメと出会え、本当に楽しい時間でした!
参加して本当に良かったです♪
Didn't know what to expect, but knew what we wanted to see......SHARKS!!!!
And we saw at least 15 swimming around us. For those who didn't get in the water (like my wife), the guys running the boat did what they could to get the sharks to the top so they could see them, too. Nice that they thought not to leave those folks out of the adventure.
But the big thrill is being in the cage with all of those sharks all around you. We got terrific pictures with just the sharks and with us in the foreground and them in the back.
Great trip. We recommend it. P.S. take the early trips as the afternoons can get rough on the ocean.
We participated in an activity that could be enjoyed by three generations, including my parents and children, totaling eight people. We joined the first Japanese-guided tour of the day. Although our guide was not Japanese, they entertained us with fluent language skills. We were lucky enough to see sea turtles swimming, which was wonderful. My 65-year-old grandfather was also very excited to see the turtles. Since we had to move by boat before and after boarding the submarine, it's essential to bring motion sickness medication. Don't worry, there are etiquette bags available in case you feel unwell on the submarine.
3世代で楽しめるアクティビティはないかと、両親、子供を含め8人で参加しました。
朝一番の日本語ガイドのツアーに参加。
ガイドさんは日本人ではないのですが、流暢な言葉使いで楽しませてくれます。私たちはラッキーなことに海ガメが泳いでいるところをみることが出来て良かったです。
65歳のおじいちゃんもカメの泳ぐ姿を見て大興奮でした。
潜水艦に乗り込む前後は船で移動となるので、酔い止めの薬は必携。万一潜水艦で気分が悪くなってもエチケット袋はあるのでご安心を。
I participated at my son's request. I was worried about seasickness, but it was not a problem at all. There weren't many fish to see, but the kids were surprised to see the sunken airplane. It can be a bit cold inside the ship, so it might be a good idea to bring a jacket. Also, when getting on and off the submarine, you need to use a ladder for a few meters. It might be better to avoid wearing a mini skirt or a maxi skirt.
息子の希望で参加しました。船酔いが心配でしたが全く問題ありませんでした。見られる魚はそれ程多くはありませんでしたが、子供たちは沈んだ飛行機などを見てビックリしてました。艦内は少し寒いので上着を持って行った方がいいかも。あと、せんすいかに乗り込む時と出る時に数メートルはしごを使います。ミニスカートもしくはマキシ丈スカートはやめた方がいいかな。
This is my second time on the Body Glove snorkeling tour this year. Last year was so great that I decided to repeat it. This year, my 7-year-old and 5-year-old kids were extremely satisfied. They enjoyed not only snorkeling but also the slide and jumping in. The parents enjoyed a BBQ on the boat, and we definitely ate too much. We got to see dolphins both on the way to and from the snorkeling point, which was just amazing! It was really wonderful. We'll be going again next year.
Body Glove のシュノーケルツアーは今年で2回目。
去年、とても良かったのでリピートしました。
今年も、7歳と5歳の子供達、大大大大満足。
シュノーケルはもちろん、スライダーや飛び込みを楽しんでいました。
両親は船上BBQを楽しんでいました。
食べすぎ注意なくらい。
イルカにはシュノーケルポイントへの行きも帰りも会えて、もう最高!
ほんとによかったです。
来年も行きます。
We had booked a shuttle service, but there was a little mishap... Our family of four was left behind... We contacted the hotel staff, and in the end, we took a taxi to the location. The taxi fare was supposed to be covered by the company, but since it was discussed over the phone, I wasn't entirely sure about it, so I paid upfront. Later, when I followed up through this service, I found that the amount was properly refunded to my credit card. I truly realized that this is a trustworthy company.
As for the activities, we signed up for them with our two children, aged 4 and 1. My 4-year-old son signed up for an activity to swim with dolphins and rays, but it seemed a bit too early for him, and he cried a little... However, both my son and my 1-year-old daughter were thrilled to interact with the dolphins, and they even got to shake hands and kiss them, which was a bit surprising! We also got some commemorative photos taken, and we were very satisfied. My 4-year-old son keeps saying, "The dolphins were so cute. It was so much fun," even after returning home.
Both the kids and adults had a great time and felt truly rejuvenated; it was a wonderful trip. I definitely want to participate again next year. Thank you very much!
送迎付きを申し込んでいたのですがちょっとしたハプニングが・・・。私たち家族4人が置いていかれてしまい・・・。ホテルの人に連絡をとっていただき結局はタクシーで現地に向かいました。タクシー代は会社側が支払っていただけることになっていましたが、電話での話だったのでいまいち信用はしていなかったのですがとりあえず立て替えということで支払いをしました。後日こちらを通して連絡したところきちんとクレジットカードに送金されていました。信頼おける会社だと改めて実感しました。
アクティビティの内容ですが4歳1歳の子供と四人で申し込みました。4歳息子はイルカに加えエイと泳ぐアクティビティも申し込みましたが4歳にはまだ早すぎたようで少し泣いていました・・・。
が、イルカは4歳息子はもちろん1歳娘も大喜びで、ちょっとびっくりながらもイルカと握手&キスを!
記念の写真も撮ってもらい大満足でした。
4歳息子は帰国後も「イルカさん可愛かったねぇ。たのしかったねぇ」の連続です。
子供はもちろん大人も楽しくすごく癒され本当にいい旅になりました。来年も是非参加したいとおもいます。ありがとうございました。
I was thrilled to encounter a rare dolphin that can only be found here. It's embarrassing in Japan, but I can do it overseas. The sensation of that dolphin is worth experiencing.
ここにしかいない、珍しいイルカに遭遇でき感激しました。日本では恥ずかしいけど海外ならできますね。
あのイルカの感触は体感の価値ありです
There is a novelty in being able to ride a submarine. However, it feels more like peering into an aquarium tank. I was happy to see two sea turtles, but at Okinawa's Churaumi Aquarium, you can see sea turtles up close.
In conclusion, if you want to see marine life, you should go to an aquarium. Only those who want to experience riding a submarine should participate in this tour. Otherwise, I think marine life enthusiasts will be disappointed.
潜水艦に乗れるという物珍しさはあります。しかし、感覚としては水族館の水槽を覗いているといった感じです。海亀を2匹も見れたのは嬉しかったですが、沖縄の美ら海水族館の方がもっと間近に海亀を見れます。
結論としては、海の生き物を見たければ水族館に行きましょう。一度潜水艦に乗ってみたい人だけがこのツアーに参加しましょう。でないと、海の生き物好きはガッカリすると思います。
We had a great time. We were not sure what to expect. The staff was very friendly and full of information. We were able to see Manta Rays and Giant Turtles and many fish. Would recommend for 1st timers to the island. For repeat visitors, a longer boat ride would be recommended as our 30 minutes went by very quickly.
The sub was great, the staff were great. Bookings.com suck. They reserved us on a Japanese only tour. We could have changed but it would have been the next day. Took the verbal portion away. we had headphones that would explain it in english but not so good with the main staff speaking to the group in Japanese. I have a 5 and 8 year old so it made it more difficult for them. Make sure you confirm what the booked you for !!
I participated in Dolphin Adventure with my two daughters, while my wife observed. Upon arrival, a Japanese staff member explained the overall flow of the experience. The instructors for the program were all foreigners and did not speak Japanese, but since the Japanese staff provided a thorough explanation beforehand, there were no issues. As long as you understand some basic words, you'll be fine.
Both my daughter and I were very satisfied with the experience, which is something you can't do in Japan. The photos of my daughters turned out with the best smiles. However, the distance while swimming with the dolphins was about 3 to 4 meters, and it only lasted a few seconds. The cost performance is questionable.
Also, observers can participate in the activities and take photos, but they can't get too close. Lunch is also affordable, costing around $10 per person.
ドルフィン・アドベンチャーに参加してきました。
娘2人と私が参加、嫁さんは見学です。
着いてからは日本人?のスタッフが全体の流れを説明してくれました、体験プログラムでのインストラクターは外人のみで日本語はNGでしたが先に日本人スタッフがしっかりと説明してくれていたので問題なしです、簡単な単語が分かれば何とかなります。
日本では体験出来ないような内容に娘も私も大満足。
出来上がった写真の娘たちは最高の笑顔です。
でもイルカと一緒に泳ぐ距離は3~4m位、数秒で終りでした。
コストパフォーマンスは???
あと、見学者も一緒に行動出来るし、写真もとれますよ。でも近くまでは行けないけどね。
お昼ごはんは1人$10もあればOKです。
I had a great time interacting with the dolphins! Since even small children can participate, it's a fun experience for the whole family.
イルカとふれあえてとても楽しかった!
小さな子供も参加できるので家族で楽しむことができます。
I experienced a dolphin encounter on my first trip to Hawaii.
**What to Wear and Bring:**
- Swimsuit (I wore it from the hotel. There are few changing rooms and not much time, so it's definitely better to wear it from the hotel.)
- Beach sandals (I wore these too.)
- Bath towel (Purchased at an ABC Store in Hawaii)
- Sunscreen (You can get quite sunburned)
- Lightweight hoodie (For wind and sun protection)
- Digital camera
- Reservation confirmation
- Underwear (Since I went in a swimsuit, don't forget!)
- Money (I brought about $80 per person)
I participated in a package with hotel pickup for the 9:30 AM program. I got on the shuttle bus at 8:30 and arrived at the park around 9:20. I hurriedly signed the consent form and changed clothes. The coin locker for valuables costs $3, and one is enough for a family. You can take non-valuable items to the poolside.
The program lasts about 30 minutes. Our group was all Japanese. The instructor was also Japanese. There were participants ranging from a one-year-old child to a grandfather in his 70s. The dolphin, Kekaimaru, is a half-dolphin, half-whale. It had very gentle eyes and was adorable. We kissed and danced with it. The performance right in front of us was very satisfying. Even the little kids, held by their parents, were a bit nervous but enjoyed interacting with Kekaimaru.
After the program, we had free time until the return bus. The park itself is small, so you can finish exploring it quickly. The dolphin show is wonderful, so be sure to see it. You can really feel the trust between the instructor and the dolphins, which is lovely.
After the show, we had a meal at the park's restaurant. It's self-service. I had the kalua pork (steamed pork) from the plate lunch options. If you're a light eater, one dish is enough for two people. The taste is decent, about the same level as meals at Japanese theme parks.
Also, the program photos are three for $40. You can buy them individually, but they are really well taken, so you'll probably want all three (laughs).
I was moved by the adorable sight of the large dolphins right in front of me. It's enjoyable for everyone from small children to grandparents. I highly recommend it!

We made this a family affair. My two kids, 16 & 6 enjoyed the sharks. The water was rough and it was very hard to hold onto the cage. I had to hold my 6yr old, he was not strong enough to hold on himself and the waves knocked him around. That said he loved it. My 16 yr old had no problems and tooks some great pics with the underwater camera. The sharks came right up to the cage and they looked them eye to eye. I tend to get sea sick so I wore a sea sick patch, which unfortuntly was not enough. The worst part was sitting in the boat while the other group was in the cage. Everyone agreed that they would do it again, but compared to some of the other tours we did, this one seemed a little pricy. We were only out for about 1.5 hours with about 15 - 20 minutes in the cage, which was just right but per minute - expensive!
It was incredibly powerful. They come so close that they almost bump into you. They swoop right in front of you again and again! Four to five mantas came by repeatedly.
They come to eat the plankton gathered around the lights, and it was my first time consciously noticing the plankton itself, so it was very refreshing.
The meeting point is the office at the Kona Shopping Center. You check in there. There are no staff who speak Japanese. They didn't provide specific guidance on the wetsuits, but there was staff in the next room who lent them out. I participated in July, and I think it’s better to wear a wetsuit as the night sea can be a bit cold, especially for Japanese people who tend to feel cold more.
After borrowing the wetsuit, everyone moves to the harbor past the Sheraton. It’s easier if you have a rental car. If you ask the staff at the office, they can call a taxi for you. I considered taking a shuttle, but the timing didn’t work out.
Once we arrived at the harbor and boarded the boat, we enjoyed a cruise while watching the sunset, and when it got dark, we finally entered the sea to see the mantas. We held onto a pole and waited for the mantas to come to eat the plankton. After a while, one large manta, then two!! Four to five came by. We could see right into their mouths.
There are days when you might not see many, but we had mantas coming by repeatedly, and it was an impressive and wonderful experience. Everything was in English, but if you have courage, you can manage. It was just amazing.
すっごい迫力です。
体にぶつかるほど近くまで来ます。
べろ~んと目の前で何度も何度も旋回!
4~5枚のマンタが代わる代わる何度も来ました。
ライトに集まるプランクトンを食べに来るのですが、プランクトン自体も意識して見たのは初めてだったのでとても新鮮でした。
集合はコナショッピングセンターの事務所。
そこでチェックインします。
日本語を話せるスタッフはいません。
ウェットスーツの案内は特にしてくれませんでしたが隣の部屋にスタッフがいて、そこで貸してくれます。
7月に参加しましたが、夜の海は少し寒くウェットは着用するべきだと思います。
日本人は特に寒がりなので。
ウェットを借りたら、シェラトンの先にあるハーバーまで各自で移動します。
レンタカーがあると楽です。
事務所のスタッフに頼めばタクシーを呼んでくれます。
シャトルでの移動も考えましたが、時間が合いませんでした。
ハーバーに着き船に乗り込むと、夕陽を眺めながらのクルーズ、暗くなったらいよいよマンタを見に海へ入ります。
棒につかまりプランクトンを食べに来るマンタを待ちます。
しばらくすると、大きなマンタが1枚、2枚!!
4~5枚来ました。
口の中もバッチリ見ることが出来ました。
あまり観ることが出来ない日もあるようですが、私たちは何度もマンタがやってきて、迫力ある素晴らしい体験が出来ました。
すべて英語対応ですが、勇気があればなんとかなりそうです。
とにかくすごかったです。
We participated as a family of three, including my wife and our 1 year and 10-month-old son. It was great that our son's admission was free. Although it was a short time, interacting with the dolphins became a wonderful memory.
夫婦と1歳10ヶ月の息子の3人で参加しました。
息子の料金が無料だったのはありがたかったです。
短時間ではありましたがイルカと触れ合えたことはよい思い出になりました。
The sea was angry that day, but the crazy eight crew pulled through! I have always wanted to swim with sharks and am so glad we were able to fit this in during wedding week. Despite the windy rough weather, the crew felt comfortable going forward with the adventure after deeming the conditions safe enough. They were very professional and provided great customer service and were very open in providing information. The water and cage were the most comfortable place to be on our adventure and the sharks provided a great show. The view was spectacular and we all survived. I would definitely do this again and recommend this to anyone considering this activity. Thank you Hawaiiactivities and Jessica for helping us decide on this adventure. Great job by all!
I was able to see both dolphins and turtles! The sea was also very beautiful and it was the best!
イルカにも亀にもあえました!海もとっても綺麗で最高でした!
It's a program where you can play with dolphins. It's wonderful that children from the age of one can participate. There were also Japanese instructors available who provided support in Japanese.
You can purchase photos for $16 each, but that is a bit expensive.
イルカと遊べるプログラムです。
1歳児から参加できるのが素敵です。
インストラクターの人は日本人の方もいて、
日本語対応していました。
写真は1枚16ドルで購入できるのですが、やや高いですね。
It was my first time touching a dolphin, so it was a very valuable experience.
イルカを触るのは初めてだったのでとても貴重な体験でした。
We participated as a couple with a 6-year-old child (kindergarten age).
We were able to see them properly! I think there were about 10 of them. It's definitely different from an aquarium! It’s magical, but some people might feel a bit scared because it’s quite dark.
We held onto a raft with downward-facing lights while waiting for the manta rays. You can float on your stomach with your feet on the float, so it’s easy and you don’t have to kick or tread water.
It seemed like they were coming closer to the brightest spot. Other tour rafts and divers were brighter, so they didn’t come too close, but we enjoyed it enough.
Since our child can’t swim yet, we used a jacket that we brought with us that inflates with air. They generally don’t use jackets, so if you need one, you should ask for it.
Also, it’s quite cold. Even people who usually handle the cold well were feeling chilly. Wearing two wetsuits keeps you warm, so it might be a good idea to ask if you can rent two when you get there.
I think it would be great to have a waterproof camera that can record video. For still images, you really need a big camera.
夫婦+6歳児(年長)での参加でした。
ちゃんと見られました!
10匹弱いたと思います。やっぱ水族館とは違いますよ!
幻想的ですが、真っ暗でちょっと恐怖感を感じる人もいるかもしれませんね。
下向きのライトが付いたイカダに掴まってマンタを待ちます。
うつ伏せで足をフローターに乗せて浮かんでいられるのでキックや立ち泳ぎすることもなく楽ちんです。
一番明るい場所に寄ってきているようでした。別のツアーイカダやダイバーの方が明るかったのであまり近くには来てくれませんでしたが十分楽しめました。
子供はまだ泳げないので持参した空気を入れて使うジャケットを装着して入りました。基本的にジャケットは使用しないようなので必要な方は言わないと出てこないと思います。
それとかなり寒いです。
寒さに強い印象の白人さんもかなり寒がってました。
ウエット二枚重ねると暖かいのでレンタルの時に二枚借りられるか聞いてみるといいかもしれません。
防水の動画が撮れるコンデジがあるといいと思います。
静止画はどでかいカメラじゃないと無理ですね。
