It feels within reach!!! 手が届きそう！！！

Reviewed by: k.k.

Despite the children's criticism about the silly name, I trusted the positive reviews and decided to participate! It was a great decision! The kids who were complaining ended up getting completely absorbed in learning to snorkel for the first time, and with the help of the fun staff, they lost track of time chasing dolphins. The one reaching for the turtle is my son! It's a bit pricey, but it's definitely worth it!

名前がふざけてるーとの、子供達の批判に負けず、こちらの口コミで好評だったのを信じ、参加させて頂きました！
大正解でした！
文句を言っていた子供達も、夢中で初シュノーケルを習得し、楽しいスタッフさん達に上手く乗せられ〜時間を忘れて、イルカを追っかけてました。
亀の後ろに手が届きそうなのが息子です！

When I went to Hawaii, I definitely wanted to interact with wild dolphins! So I decided to join this tour.

There’s a reason why the morning gathering is so early.

I was truly moved when a pod of dolphins appeared right in front of me!

The sea turtles were adorable too!

The local staff kept us entertained until we got off the boat, and I was very satisfied!

So, I booked other tours as well.

ハワイに行ったら絶対にイルカ野生のイルカと触れ合いたい！

I was a bit concerned about participating with children, but I was grateful for the various accommodations made for us. The dolphins swam from all directions, and it was truly mystical and moving! Since it was a university program, it felt like a class, and the fact that we could graduate at the end was quite interesting!

We gathered early in the morning while it was still dark. On the ship, the handsome crew entertained us by dancing and singing, but despite going without eating anything in the morning, we only received a single hamburger for lunch. There were no fruits as mentioned in the itinerary either. In the end, there was no hula lesson after disembarking, and we were just taken back to our hotel and dismissed. There was no information provided about the absence of the hula lesson. We returned to the hotel by noon. I felt it was disappointing that, despite paying a high price to participate, the planned itinerary was not followed.

早朝暗いうちから集合。
船ではイケメンのクルーたちが踊ったり歌ったりして楽しませてくれますが、朝から何も食べずに行ったのに、ランチという名のハンバーガー一個だけ。

Participated in a dolphin tour with kids. 子連れ初ドルフィンツアーに参加

Reviewed by: vivian

We participated as a family of four with a three-year-old and a five-year-old kindergarteners. I felt reassured to sign up because I read in reviews that it’s fine for small children.

Everyone was excited and looking forward to the departure and arrival at the point. Although there were floating devices, for the little ones with zero swimming experience, there was quite a bit of resistance to entering the sea! As a result, our speed slowed down significantly, and we couldn't catch up with the larger group.

In the end, Dad and the kids gave up and returned to the boat first, while Mom managed to see the dolphins playing for just a moment.

The hamburger for lunch was delicious!

三歳と五歳の幼稚園生を連れて家族4人の参加でした。
口コミで小さい子でも大丈夫ですよって書いてあるため、安心して申し込みました。

出発、ポイント到着までは、皆期待しながら、ワクワクしていました。
浮く道具はあったものの、水泳経験０のちびっ子にとっては、海に入るのがなかなか抵抗があった！お陰で進むスピードがかなり落ちていて、大部隊になかなか追いつけられませんでした。

結局、パパと子供達は諦めて、先に船に戻って、ママ一人何とかイルカ群が遊んでいる姿を一瞬だけと、みることができました。

Totally worth it!

Reviewed by: Honu

Our guides were very friendly and helpful. We were able to swim next to turtles, dolphins and tons of tropical fish. This isn't the kind of swimming with dolphins in an aquarium where they do tricks for you and kiss you, but it's amazing in itself to see a pod of 30+ dolphins in their natural habitat. They came as close as within 10 feet of us in our trip, and turtles were close enough to touch. Lunch was actually delicious!

Overall an unforgettable experience and highly recommended! I would also recommend getting an underwater camera or waterproof iPhone case. We didn't and definitely regretted it.

We participated with our family of four (grades 4 and 2) during Golden Week. I had a lot of worries, like waking up early, whether we would get seasick, and if we would really see dolphins, but I gradually relaxed thanks to the guide's high energy. (I didn't feel seasick at all.)

We saw dolphins right after we set sail. It was truly moving. I wanted to swim with them forever. We also encountered turtles and fish. The kids were able to swim with the crew members and had a great time. Even after returning to Japan, we are still excited looking at the photos we purchased.

The experience was definitely worth the price. I would love to participate again on our next trip to Hawaii.

I was able to see dolphins much closer than I had imagined, and I was very satisfied. Unfortunately, I couldn't see any sea turtles, but I enjoyed the other activities as well. I think it was a well-organized program, and the guide was very skilled. However, if I go again, I might choose the dolphin school because I would like more time with the dolphins. You can purchase photos, but at $60 for a photo where I'm not really in it, I think I might skip it next time. This time, I'm satisfied with the photos of the dolphins I saw.

想像していたよりずっと近くでイルカを見ることができ、大満足です。
残念ながら海亀を見ることはできませんでしたが、その他のアクティビティも楽しめました。
よく出来たプログラムだと思います。ガイドさんもとても上手でした。
ただ、次回行くことがあれば、イルカの時間がもっと欲しいので、イルカ中学の方にしようかなと思います。
写真を購入できますが、あまり自分が写っていないのに60ドルと言うなかなかのお値段なので、次は買わなくても良いかなと思います。今回は自分が見たイルカの写真と言うことで納得していますが。

I participated due to my wife's wish to swim with dolphins. Although I was somewhat anxious because of the strong winds, I was very satisfied to see them twice. I think the guide did a great job of keeping everyone engaged and having fun. I was worried about seasickness despite taking medication in advance, but perhaps because there were two boats, the rocking was less than I imagined, and it was okay.

イルカと泳いでみたいという家内の希望で参加しました。風が強く多少不安がありましたが、2度も見ることが出来て大変満足でした。ガイドの方も皆が楽しめるよう盛り上げてくれてとても良かったと思います。薬は予め飲んでも船酔いはやはり不安でしたが、二艘船のためか想像より揺れは少なく大丈夫でした。

great tour

We were picked up at 515am and taken to a marina. A light breakfast was provided consisting of tea/coffee and muesli bars/muffins. We then boarded a boat equipped with snorkling equipment. We had 2 wonderful guides and a photographer. Austin and the young lady guide were great. We were taken across the ocean, saw a few whales before being taken to a phenomenal reef. Beautiful coloured fish and coral to see. The underwater photographer Asia takes photos of you and family snorkling which you then can purchase. The photos are definitely worth it. We saw a heap of dolphins and turtles in their natural habitat. The guide takes you as close to the dolphins as possible. We were then treated to a bbq lunch at around midday. Great for young kids and non swimmers. Wonderful staff. Can't fault this tour. Highly reccommended.

The event that was supposed to be fun turned out differently... The kids got seasick. One dropped out before boarding. Just when we were about to snorkel in the sea, another one got seasick and dropped out. We participated as a group of four, but none of us could get into the water... We only saw dolphins from a distance... However, it seems that a large pod of dolphins came that day, and the other participants were happy. It seemed to be a bit tough for the kids who are not used to traveling.

I saw dolphins and sea turtles! イルカもウミガメも見れた！

Reviewed by: khpapa

I was woken up early in the morning by a wake-up call, and my kids were grumpy as we bounced around on the bus for about an hour. We arrived on the West Coast and set sail with a high-energy instructor and a group of nice guys. To our surprise, we encountered a pod of dolphins just three minutes in, and we were instructed to jump in!

I thought the dolphins would be easy to spot in the clear water since they are large, but visibility was limited, and you couldn't tell they were nearby. Following the instruction to look down, I continued swimming and, sure enough, there was a pod of dolphins right below us! We enjoyed swimming with the dolphins for about ten minutes, wondering if it was really this easy to see them.

Next, we moved to the sea turtle point. There were so many fish that if you fed them, they would swarm around you. Those who wanted to have fun enjoyed marine sports while swimming and spotted sea turtles. It was moving to see them swimming leisurely, seemingly oblivious to the humans around.

I wanted my 5-year-old and 3-year-old to try swimming with the sea turtles, but since it was their first time swimming in the ocean, snorkeling was too much for them, and they quickly got back on the boat. Even from the boat, we could see dolphins swimming right below us and turtles occasionally popping their heads above the surface, making the boat ride itself a great memory. I hope they can practice swimming and try again.

A beautiful photographer was also on board, and she captured stunning photos for us (for an additional fee). Overall, I was very satisfied! However, since we are dealing with nature, there's no guarantee you'll see them, but this tour has a high probability of encounters.

イルカは大きいので澄んだ海の中ならすぐに見えるだろうと思いきや、やはり視界に限界があり、そばにいないとわからない　下を見て！の指示に従い泳ぎ続けると、たしかに真下にイルカのむ群れが！こんなにEasyに見られていいのかと思いながら１０分ほど皆でイルカとの遊泳を楽しみました。
さらに移動してウミガメポイントへ。ここは魚がたくさんいて餌をやろうものならそれこそ入れ食い状態。で、楽しみたい人たちはマリンスポーツを楽しみながら遊泳し、ウミガメ発見。人間など眼中にないかのごとく悠々と泳ぐさまに感動しました。
５歳と３歳のこどもがウミガメとの遊泳にチャレンジしてもらおうと思いましたがいかんせんまともに海で泳ぐのが初めてではシュノーケルは無理ですぐに船にあがってしまいました。船の上からでもま真下を泳ぐイルカやたまに顔を水面に出すカメを見ることができ、また、乗船自体もいい思い出になったようです。水泳の練習をして再チャレンジを期待したいところです。
船には美人カメラマンも乗船し、見事な写真の数々をデータにしてもらえました。（別料金）
全体として大満足！ただし、相手は自然なので必ずあえるとは限らないが、このツアーがかなりのか確率で会えるとのことです。

So much fun!! The Best Snorkel Tour!

I went out with my brother and it was our first time going to the West Side. we absolutely loved it!

The vessel is brand new and it comfortably accommodates all guest. The crew is very knowledgeable and professional, after the safety briefing they served us a continental breakfast, with a nice variety of fresh fruits and cakes.

By the moment we left the harbor we could already see lots of wild Hawaiian dolphins swimming close to the boat. We were lucky enough to even spot 4 humpback whales, if you are visiting the Island during the winter months you will have big chances of seeing them also.

We've stopped at Makaha Caverns to snorkel. It's absolutely beautiful! The guide was swimming with us around the area and we surrounded by turtles and beautiful colorful fishes.

Lunch was served right after snorkel time, we could make our own sandwiches and choose from barbecue pork, tuna salad, deli meats, cheese, chips and pasta salad. Delicious!

It was a delightful morning, this snorkel tour was amazing! Definitely recommend Hawaii Nautical to everyone seeking for a good time in paradise!

Ko Olina Ocean Adventures Snorkel with Wild Dolphins Rafting Tour [Open Soon]

Sitting uncomfortably in a rubber pontoon for three hours going in a circle...

Reviewed by: Maiwayalways1

The staff gets two stars for doing their job but the excursion itself is misleading and therefore gets zero stars. We had three children ages 5, 7 and 9. We unfortunatlely sat in the last two rows of the pontoon and pretty much missed the entire dolphin and whale sightings due to the stingy adults who would immediately stand up and hog the sights with their cameras. One of the sweet staff boys did accompany our 5 and 7 year olds to the front of the boat during the first sighting but then a few adults moved to that same spot to crowd so the kids moved back to the end with us. Complete inconsideration but perhaps I am more conscious of sharing space and views with others.
Anyway, we snorkeled for roughly thirty five minutes in one spot, jumped on the pontoon and cruised in a large circle outside the industrial plant for about an hour and a half then anchored for a second snorkel location. This time only about eight people snorkeled (40 people) due to exhaustion and boredom... And to top it off, the lunch was either room temp chicken thigh or room temp shredded pork, questionably warm pineapple and strawberry salad and an oversized bun with generous lettuce and tomatoes. Overall this activity should have been thirty dollars max and lunch optional since it was inedible. If you have small children under 12, and actually want to snorkel longer than forty five minutes, then seek else where.

Dolphins are the best!! イルカサイコー!!

Reviewed by: (☆∀☆)

I participated at the end of February! Waking up early in the morning was tough, but there were so many dolphins that it was incredibly moving!! I was told that if you stop breathing through the snorkel, you can hear the dolphins, but there were so many dolphins that even while breathing normally, I could constantly hear their sounds!

Unfortunately, the waves were too high, so we couldn't do any marine sports, and the speaker broke, so we couldn't do the hula dance either. We were sent back to the hotel 1 hour and 30 minutes earlier than planned. I was happy to see a lot of dolphins, swim with turtles, and even see whales, although they were far away, but I wonder about the schedule not being adjusted despite the issues? Because of that, I didn't leave a tip.

I understand it's a business, but $60 for the photo CD is expensive! My friend wanted it, so I ended up buying it, but it's disappointing that we had to pay a high price for a CD that included other people besides us. I was advised not to take a camera while snorkeling with the dolphins, so I left it behind, but now I regret not bringing it.

朝早くから起きるのは大変でしたが、イルカがこれでもか!?っと言うほどいっぱいいて、超感動!!

そのため、tipは払いませんでした。
あと、商売なのは分かるけど、写真のCDR＄60は高い！友人が欲しい!!っと言っていたので、結局買いましたが、自分達以外の人とかが載ったCDRを高額で買わなきゃならないのは残念。

The snorkeling is wonderful. シュノーケルが素晴らしい。

Reviewed by: Issy

First of all, it’s a coastal area, but since we go out into the open sea, it can get rocky. I got seasick, even though I’m usually fine with marine sports.

As for the dolphins, it seems that most of the approximately 30 participants were able to see them, but I couldn’t.

There were moments when they shouted, “The dolphins are over there! Jump in!” and “They’re over here! Jump in!” It didn’t feel like we were swimming together with them. When I desperately swam and looked around underwater, I could see them.

All the participants were Japanese. There were two staff members who could speak Japanese, and the others could mostly communicate as well. It was impressive to see the staff working hard to energize the somewhat reserved Japanese participants.

I was more impressed by the snorkeling than the dolphins. The water clarity was amazing!! It was about 10 meters deep, I think. The high transparency made it feel like I was flying in the sky, and the fish were beautiful, which was very moving. I’ve done snorkeling on other tours, but this one was by far the best!

The staff’s enthusiasm to help us see the dolphins and their desire to make it enjoyable was a very likable aspect of the tour.

楽しませたいという思いが好感持てるツアーでした。

Dolphins are the best! イルカ最高！

Reviewed by: (^o^)

I had a really great time!
We were blessed with good weather and were able to see many dolphins! I'm truly happy to have encountered sea turtles as well!
The guide was a bit scary, but explained everything thoroughly!

The boat sways quite a bit, so it's definitely better to take motion sickness medication.

本当に楽しかった！
天気に恵まれて、たくさんのイルカを見ることができました！ウミガメにもあえて本当幸せです！
ガイドさんは少しこわいけどしっかり説明してくれました！

船はかなり揺れるので酔い止めは絶対飲んだ方が良いです。

ホエールウォッチ　遭遇率の高い西オアフで鑑賞！アウラニやコオリナリゾートから車で20分　ソフトドリンク飲み放題付き＜西オアフ発／12/1～3/31＞

It was amazing. However, be fully prepared for seasickness and splashes. 最高でした。ただし船酔い 波しぶきには万全で

It was amazing.
During the roughly two-hour voyage through rough waves, we were able to see five whales.
The drink service was great, and the staff's performance was very friendly and enjoyable.
You definitely need motion sickness medication. Also, it gets cold, and when you go to the front, you can get splashed by the waves, so a towel and rain gear are essential.
There was one staff member of Japanese descent who provided boarding instructions in Japanese, but after that, it was all about enjoying the sea, the whales, and the beer.
Also, when boarding, you go barefoot. You leave your shoes on the pier, so you don't need heavy footwear.

最高でした。
波の荒い中、約２時間の航海、五頭のクジラに合うことができました。
飲み物サービスもよく、スタッフの演出も大変フレンドリーで楽しめました。
酔い止めは、必ず必要です。 また寒く 前方にでると波もかなりかぶるのでタオル・レインウエアーは必携でしょう。
スタッフに日系人が、一人で日本語での乗船案内はしてくれましたが、あとは海とクジラとビールを楽しむモードでOKです。
尚、乗船するときは、裸足です。靴は、桟橋においていきますのでごっつい靴はいりません。

I was able to swim with a lot of dolphins! ♪ たくさんのイルカと一緒に泳げました♪

I tend to get motion sickness, so I took anti-nausea medication on the morning of the trip, but I started feeling sick on the way back and ended up vomiting... The staff advised me that it's better to take the medication starting the night before. Since the boat sways quite a bit, I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take it the night before. Although I got seasick, I was moved to be able to swim with wild dolphins!☆

乗り物酔いをしやすいわたしは当日の朝に酔い止め薬を飲みましたが帰りの船上で気分が悪くなり吐いてしまいました・・・
スタッフの方から前日の夜から酔い止め薬を飲むといいんだよ。と教えていただきました。
船はかなり揺れますので乗り物酔いをされやすい方は前日の夜からの服用をおすすめします。
船酔いをしてしまいましたが
野生のイルカと一緒に泳げることができて感動しました☆
