All Reviews for Waikiki Beach, Oahu

The staff were cheerful, and even though I couldn't communicate in Japanese, I had a great time and it became a wonderful memory. It was such an enjoyable experience that I would love to participate again next time.

スタッフが陽気で日本語通じなかったけど、楽しませて頂いていい思い出になりました。
次回、もう一度参加したいと思えるような体験ができとても楽しい時間になりました。

The round-trip shuttle service to the hotel made transportation very easy! The boat ride was also very pleasant with the sea breeze, and parasailing was absolutely amazing! The clear weather made the view of Hawaii from above exceptional. The wind felt great too!

ホテルまで往復送迎がついていて移動はとても楽でした！
ボートでの移動もとても潮風が気持ちよく、パラセーリングはとても最高でした！
よく晴れていて上空から見るハワイはまた格別でした。風も気持ちよかったです！

On my first trip to Hawaii, I was unsure about what activities to do, but I'm glad I chose parasailing! I challenged myself to 150 meters! The view and the feeling were absolutely amazing! ✨

初のハワイ旅行でアクティビティー何やろうか悩みましたが！パラセーリングやって良かったです✨150m挑戦しましまた！眺めも気持ち良さも最高でした✨

The weather was nice, so I was able to see a very beautiful sunset. I was very satisfied! I would like to use this place again when I come back someday.

天気がよかったので、とても綺麗な夕日を見ることができました。大満足でした！またいつか来た時は利用したいです。

We participated as a family of three. The transportation was smooth, and the whole experience lasted just under two hours.

We flew at the highest altitude, but my 8-year-old son was not scared and had a great time flying.

Participants exchanged cameras and took many photos without spending any money.

I would love to do it again if the opportunity arises!

私達は親子三人で参加しました。
送迎もスムーズで、全部で2時間弱でした。

1番高い高度で飛びましたが、8歳の息子も
怖がらず、大変楽しく飛ぶことができました。

写真は参加者さん同士でカメラを交換し、お金をかけずにたくさん撮って頂きました。

また機会があったらやりたいです♪

The crew was sensational! I loved their friendliness, easy-going American attitude and care for their passengers.
We loved the afternoon and were fortunate to see some wildlife.
Highly recommended.

At first, I was nervous.
Snorkeling was fun, just like sailing. There were many turtles, and I was able to observe them up close.

最初、緊張しましたが。
シュノーケルは、セーリングとも楽しかったです。亀さんか、沢山いて、身近で眺める事が出来ました。

I was a bit anxious about the language barrier, but the driver could speak a little, which was reassuring. The two crew members on the boat couldn't speak, but it wasn't a problem at all. The boat trip included four families, all of whom were Japanese. When it was our turn on the boat, they asked if we wanted to take pictures. I forgot the exact amount, but after getting off the boat, they gave us an SD card with the photos. We also gave a tip when we got off the boat, so some cash was necessary. During the parasailing, we went down to the water's surface, so we got wet, but the weather was great that day, and it became a wonderful memory. I highly recommend it!

日本語が通じないと言うことで不安はありましたが、ドライバーさんは少し話せる方で安心しました。船の方２人は話せませんでしたが、特に問題はありませんでした。その船は私たち夫婦含め4家族での参加でしたが、全員日本人でした。船に乗り自分たちの番が来ると写真撮りますか？と聞かれます。いくらかは忘れてしまいましたが、船を降りた後に写真が入ったＳＤカードでくれます。船を降りる際にチップも渡しますので、多少の現金は必要でした。パラセーリングも水面まで降りたりしましたので、濡れましたが、その日は天気も良くとても良い思い出となりました。すごくオススメです！

We experienced parasailing at 150 meters for the first time at the request of my daughters, who are in 6th and 4th grade. We signed up for the 1 PM session and were a bit anxious due to reviews about delays in transportation, but a cheerful driver arrived right on time to pick us up.

The view of Diamond Head and Waikiki during the parasailing was amazing and refreshing! My husband and I, who are afraid of heights, were quite nervous due to the altitude, but our daughters were absolutely thrilled. I'm glad we chose the 150 meters! At the end, thanks to the veteran captain's skill, we were gently dropped into the water. Everyone in the tour was watching, and he made sure our heads didn't go under the water! I was impressed by his technique!

Although it was a calm day, the boat rocked quite a bit! Our family took motion sickness medication, but we still felt a little queasy... I think taking motion sickness pills is essential. The boat crew and the driver were all cheerful, making the experience enjoyable! They offered a photo service for an additional $30, but since we were able to take pictures as a family, we didn't opt for it.

小学6年、4年の娘の希望で初めてのパラセーリング150mを体験しました。
13時の回に申し込みし、送迎が遅れるというクチコミにドキドキしてましたが、時間ピッタリに愉快なドライバーさんがお迎えに来てくれましたよ。
パラセーリングは、ダイヤモンドヘッドとワイキキの眺めが最高で爽快でした！高所恐怖症の私と旦那はあまりの高さにビクビクしてましたが、娘たちは大満足。150mで良かったです！ 最後は、ベテランキャプテンの技で海の中へボチョン 笑 ツアー参加者全員をみてましたが、頭は海に入らないようにしてくれているんです！テクニックに感動しました！
ただ、穏やかな日でしたが、ボートはかなり揺れます‼︎ 私たち家族は酔い止めを飲んでましたが、それでも少し気持ち悪くなりました…酔い止めは必須かと思います。
ボートクルー、ドライバーの方皆さん陽気で楽しく参加できました！写真撮影サービスは追加で30ドルと言われましたが、家族で撮り合い出来たので頼みませんでした。

There were many Americans on board, and thanks to their cheerful antics, it was a very exciting cruise. The gentle rocking of the boat and the pleasant buzz from the Mai Tai made the time fly by without boredom, and watching the sunset from the deck was the best memory of all.

アメリカ人の方も多く、陽気にはしゃぐ彼等のおかげでとてもエキサイティングな船旅でした。適度な揺れとマイタイの心地よい酔いで飽きることなく時間が過ぎて、夕陽の落ちていくのを船上で眺めるのは何よりの思い出でした。

It was a perfect day with calm waves and good weather, where neither the boat nor the submarine swayed, and visibility was excellent. By chance, there were only Japanese people, so all the explanations were in Japanese, which was lucky. The scuba diving instructor was very knowledgeable about fish and provided detailed explanations very kindly. It was a quick one-hour underwater exploration.

波も穏やかな良い天気で、船も潜水艦も揺れず、視界も良好で言うことなしの日でした。たまたま日本人ばかりになり、解説は全て日本語になりラッキーでした。スキューバダイビングのインストラクターもされているとのことで、魚のことについても詳しく、とても丁寧に解説してくださいました。あっという間の1時間の海底探索でした。

Initially, we hoped for a sunset cruise, but it was fully booked even a week in advance during summer vacation. However, the daytime cruise was available even two days prior. My parents in their 70s and my elementary school-aged child were able to enjoy the views of the Hawaiian sea and the sea breeze unique to sailing. The scenery might be better during the day. My middle school son is prone to seasickness and felt quite exhausted, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you're susceptible to it.

There were many foreign tourists, but it wasn't a problem at all. You can order drinks, but I didn't see many people doing so. We had our photos taken before boarding, but I had no idea when they were selling them, and my limited English made it difficult to confirm. Also, when boarding and disembarking, we had to take off our shoes and walk in the water or up the stairs of the boat, which was challenging for my mother with foot issues, but the staff were very helpful. We had heard we might see dolphins or sea turtles, but unfortunately, we didn't. Overall, we were satisfied.

当初サンセットクルーズを希望していましたが、夏休みで一週間前でも満席でしたが、こちらの日中のクルーズは前々日でも大丈夫でした。70代の両親も小学生の子供もハワイの海からの景色と帆船ならではの海風を楽しんでもらうことができました。日中の方が景色はよく見えて良いかもしれません。中学生の息子は元々船酔いしやすく、グッタリしていましたので、酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んだ方が良いです。
外国人観光客も多かったですが、特に問題ありませんでした。飲み物を注文できますが、頼んでいる人はあまり見かけませんでした。また、乗船前に写真を撮ってもらいましたが、販売をどのタイミングでしていたのか、全くわからないまま、英語力もないので確認できませんでした。また、乗船時と下りるときは靴を脱いで海の中を歩いたり船の階段を上りますので、足の悪い母は大変でしたが、スタッフの方も助けていただきました。イルカやウミガメに会えるかもと聞いていましたが、残念ながら会えずでした。でも全体的には満足しております。

Since it is located in the Royal Hawaiian Center, I made a reservation at Wolfgang's Steakhouse, and after dining, we went for cocktails and the show. I went with my daughter and my grandson, and although my daughter belongs to a generation that doesn't know Elvis, she enjoyed it as she recognized some of the songs. My grandson also had fun doing the hand movements from Michael's "Thriller." Of course, I belong to the generation that grew up with Elvis and Michael, so I had the most fun. The hula was great too, and the fire dancer was impressive. After the show, I purchased a photo with Michael, which became a wonderful memory. I would love to go again when I visit Hawaii.

ロイヤルハワイアンセンターの中にあるため、ウルフギャングステーキを予約していたので、食事した後カクテルとショーのみで予約して行きました。
小学校低学年の孫と娘といきましたが、娘はエルビスは知らない世代ですが、聞いたことのある曲もあるということで楽しんでいましたし、孫もマイケルのスリラーの手の振りなどして、楽しんでいました。
もちろん私はエルビスとマイケルどんぴしゃの世代なので一番楽しかったです。ほかにもフラもよかったし、ファイアーダンスの男の人も圧巻でした。
終わってから、マイケルとの写真も購入しいい思い出となりました。
またハワイに行ったら行きたいです。

I had so much fun the first time that I wanted to experience it again! This time, the wind was strong and I felt a bit nervous at first, but once I got used to it, it was really enjoyable. The view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea is beautiful, but as the catamaran moves, the changing shades of blue in the ocean are truly breathtaking.

1度目にとても楽しかったので、もう一度体験したい！と思い参加しました。
今回は、風が強くはじめのうちは少し緊張しましたが、慣れたらやっぱり楽しかったです。
海からのワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドも素敵ですが、カタマランが進むにつれて海の青が変化して感動します。

We experienced it as a three-generation family, and everyone was very satisfied. It felt like we were on Soarin' at Tokyo DisneySea.

親子3世代で体験しましたが、全員が大満足でした。東京ディズニーシーのソアリンに乗っているみたいでした。

This sailing experience is reasonably priced, and surprisingly, it takes you out to the ocean, allowing you to enjoy the changing colors of the sea with Diamond Head in the background while viewing the hotels around Waikiki from the water. If you're lucky, you might even spot a graceful honu swimming, which brings a sense of happiness.

However, one point to note: although the duration is short, there is no shade on the water, and the sun can be quite strong, so especially for women, a hat, sunglasses, and a light jacket are essential!

このセーリングはリーズナブルですが、以外と沖までクルーズしてくれるので、ダイヤモンドヘッドをバックに徐々に海の色が変わっていく様子を体験しながら、ワイキキ周辺のホテル群を海側から見ることができますし、運が良ければ優雅に泳ぐホヌも見かけることがあり、幸せな気分になります。
ただ、１点だけ注意。短い時間ですが、洋上には日陰がなく、日差しが強いので、特に女性は帽子にサングラス、パーカー必須かな⁉️

We departed with five groups, including my family. My five-year-old daughter and I were the second group. As we floated up, we quickly ascended, and a wonderful view unfolded before us. It felt like sitting on a swing, so even my five-year-old daughter could enjoy it. However, by the time we reached the fourth and fifth groups, even those of us who usually don’t get motion sickness found it quite tough. Since the speed is adjusted to ascend, those who are prone to motion sickness might end up feeling nauseous. Even for those who don’t usually get motion sickness, it would be wise to take some anti-nausea medication just in case.

私たち家族含め5組での出発となりました。
私と5歳の娘は2番目でした。
フワッと浮き上がると、みるみる上昇し素晴らしい景色が広がります。
ブランコに座ってるような感覚なので、5歳の娘でも楽しむことができました。
ただ、4組目5組目ともなると普段乗り物酔いをしない私たちでさえ、酔いが結構キツかったです。
上昇させるためにスピードを出したり緩めたりするので、乗り物酔いしやすい人は吐いてしまうかもしれません。
乗り物酔いしない人でも念のため酔い止めを飲んでおいてほうがよさそうです。

My beginner daughter successfully rode the waves! We signed up for a group lesson, but luckily, it ended up being a private lesson with just the two of us on the day.

初心者の娘も見事に波乗り成功！グループレッスンで申し込みましたが、ラッキーなことに当日は娘と二人きりで実際はプライベートレッスンでした。

This was my second time parasailing, so I decided to challenge myself at the highest altitude of 150 meters! Up I went smoothly into the sky. It felt amazing! I thought, "Oh, this isn't so high," but after a while... wait, am I going up again? It's so high! I don't mind heights, but it's a bit scary... However, I was able to enjoy a lot of time in the air, and by the end, I felt like I could go even higher! I'm really glad I chose the highest option. My wife, who isn't fond of heights, seemed to enjoy it while saying it was scary, especially since we were with our child. And then, at the end, we plunged into the sea! Since I was the first to jump, I didn't realize there was an option for that and foolishly shouted out loud. The crew was cheerful and made it lively, and after it was all over, it felt like a little cruise, allowing us to enjoy even more after parasailing!

パラセーリングは二回目だったので、今回は一番高い150mにチャレンジ！
スルスル〜っと上空へ。気持ちいい〜！
なんだ、そんな高くないじゃないかと思っていたら、しばらくして…ん…また上がってる？
た・高い〜！
高いところは嫌いじゃないけど、ちと怖い…
でも、たっぷり空中散歩を楽しめるし、終わってみると、まだまだいける！
なんて思ってしまうくらいで、一番高くしてよかったと思います。
高いところが苦手な妻も、子供と3人だったので怖い〜と言いながら、笑顔で楽しめたようです。
そして、最後に、海にドボン！
一番最初に飛んだので、そんなオプションがあると思っていず、迂闊にも大声をあげてしまいました。
クルーの方たちも、明るく盛り上げてくれて、終わった後も、ちょっとしたクルーズのようで、パラセーリングの後も、たっぷりと楽しめました！

It was my second time parasailing in my life. The view of Diamond Head from above was spectacular! However, I suffered from seasickness and sunburn... what a mistake.

人生2度目のパラセーリングでした。上空から見たダイヤモンドヘッドも絶景！
ただ、船酔い&日焼けには懲りました、、、失敗。

There were points where we got splashed by the waves, but the sea breeze felt great, and the view of the city and Diamond Head from the ocean was really beautiful. We were lucky to see a group of sea turtles and dolphins jumping as well.

途中ばっしゃんばっしゃん波しぶきを浴びるポイントもありましたが、海風は気持ちいいし海から眺める街並みやダイヤモンドヘッドもとってもきれいでした。ウミガメやイルカの群れ＆ジャンプも見ることが出来てラッキーでした。

Great snorkeling! We saw tons of green sea turtles, fish and spinner dolphins! The sail after the snorkel was fantastic as well!

The day I participated, it was packed with about 40 people, and there was barely enough room to sit. There were four crew members. I attended with elementary school children, but the explanation for using the snorkeling gear was very brief, and after that, everyone pretty much did their own thing. During sailing, the crew said it was optional to wear life jackets, and since they came around to collect them, none of the participants ended up wearing them.

I was able to see a sea turtle, and I spotted dolphins jumping in the distance, which was great, but I felt it might be more of an adult-oriented tour.

参加した日は40人くらいの満員状態で席もギリギリ座れるという状態でした。クルーは4人でした。小学生を連れての参加でしたがシュノーケリングの使い方はサラッと説明するくらいで、始まってからはほとんど各自で勝手にやるというかんじでした。セーリングの時は救命胴衣は着けても着けなくてもよいと言ってクルーが回収しにきて参加者全員着用してませんでした。
ウミガメは見れたし、遠くでイルカが飛び跳ねてるのが見えたので良かったですが、大人向けのツアーかな？と思いました。

After reading experiences about how rough it can get out at sea, I changed my schedule to a day when the wind seemed to be calming down, based on the weather forecast. On the day of the trip, the wind speed was 5 m/s. Once we were out at sea, there were some waves that splashed water on us, but it felt like a little adventure and was quite fun! Most of the time, there wasn't much rocking, and we could enjoy the scenery and the sunset! My high school son was very satisfied as well. However, among about 50 passengers, there was one person who felt unwell. I took motion sickness medication just in case.

沖に出るとかなり揺れるという体験談を読んで、天気予報を見ながら風が弱まりそうな日に日程を変更しました。当日は風速5m/s。沖にでると、水しぶきがかかるほどの揺れもありましたが、ちょっとした冒険気分で楽し〜いという感じ。ほとんどの時間は揺れもあまりなく景色もサンセットも楽しめます！高校生の息子も大満足。なお、50人ぐらいの乗客の中で一人だけ気分が悪くなった人がいました。私は念のため酔い止めを飲みました。

In late August, it was sunny. We participated as a couple with two middle school students. It was everyone's first time parasailing. I tend to get motion sickness, so I took some anti-nausea medication, but it was nice that there were only a few of us, just our family and two foreign sisters. (The people who rode after us were a large group, so I felt like I might get seasick while waiting for them to finish... Either way, it's better to take the medication. The boat sways quite a bit!)

I didn't talk much with the captain, but he was a nice person, and the instructor was funny and kind, making the conversation enjoyable! (He understands a little Japanese and seems familiar with Japanese people, so I think it's fine even if you can't speak English.)

Our family and the sisters were all dropped into the sea at the beginning or the end! That was fun too. I was chatting with the instructor before we started, and it naturally led to, "Well, we have to drop you into the water, Japan!" I don't know how it usually goes, but if you really want to be dropped into the sea, it might be good to express that desire.

The view from 150 meters was amazing! When the boat swayed, I couldn't help but scream like it was an amusement park ride. Haha. I wasn't worried about falling at all. I put my smartphone in a waterproof case hanging around my neck and recorded videos, but since there was some swaying, please ensure your own safety while filming. (If you're anxious about operating it up there, it might be a good idea to keep the camera rolling from before takeoff until landing. I can't guarantee the quality, but it's one way to do it.)

Also, we had to wait until the previous group returned before we could board the moving boat, and after boarding (only those buying the photo SD had to line up), but it didn't feel like we waited too long at all.

I would love to try again with the same captain and instructor!

8月下旬、晴れ。夫婦と中学生2人で参加。
全員初めてのパラセーリング。私は酔いやすく酔い止めを飲みましたが、うちと外国のお姉さん2人だけの少数だったのも良かった。(私達の後に乗ってた人達は大人数だったから、他の人がやってる間に船酔いしそうで…どっちにしても酔い止め飲んだ方がいいです。船はかなり揺れます！)
船長さんとはそんなに話さなかったけど良い人だったし、インストラクターの人は面白いし優しくてお喋りが楽しかったです！(日本語も少し通じますし日本人にも慣れてらっしゃる感じですので英語話せなくても大丈夫だと思います。)
私達家族もお姉さん達も最初か最後に海に落とされました！それも楽しかったです。私はやる前にインストラクターさんとお喋りしてて、じゃあジャポンと落とさないとね〜という流れに自然となったので普段がどうかわかりませんが、絶対海に入れてほしい人は一言やってほしい気持ちを伝えるといいかもしれませんね。
150mからの景色は最高でした！
揺れたりするとアトラクションのようにキャーキャー言ってしまいます。笑。落ちる心配は全然無かったです。首から下げる防水ケースにスマホ入れて動画なども撮りましたが、揺れもあるのでご自身で安全を確認しながら撮って下さい。(上で操作するのが不安な方は、飛ぶ前から降りるまでずっと動画回しっぱなしでもいいかもしれませんね。ちゃんと撮れるかわかりませんが一つの方法として。)
あと、移動するボートに乗るまで( 前の人達のボートが戻ってこないと私達がいけない入れ替え制でした)と乗ったあと(写真のSDを買う人だけですが並んで順番)に待たされますが、すごく待たされた感じは無かったです。
また同じ船長さんとインストラクターさんでトライしたいです。

I felt that both the dancers and the hosts were top-notch. The food was also delicious. This time, I had a golden seat right next to the stage, but I think you can enjoy it just as much from the seats further back.

ダンサー、司会者共に一流だなと感じました。
食事も美味しかったです。
今回はゴールデンシートで、ステージ真横の席でしたが、後方の席でも充分見えるし楽しめると思います。

We signed up for parasailing at 9:00 with three people, but one person was unwell, so we participated with two. The pickup was a bit late... We boarded the boat with three families, and there was a pouch with instructions for Japanese guests. They asked if we wanted to take photos. I thought $30 was too much, so I declined. You can choose to either jump into the sea or be lowered onto the boat. Everyone else jumped into the sea! I wanted to take a video with my phone, so I asked to be lowered onto the boat. I wasn't sure where the return van was... The driver from the van we took there was present, so when I mentioned the hotel name, he directed me to another van driver who said ●● Hotel and encouraged me to get on. I felt a bit forgotten? I should have recognized my name being called, but it didn't feel like that... Well, I made it back to the hotel safely, so that's good. We returned in the morning, so we could play in the afternoon as well.

9：00～のパラセーリングに
3人で申し込みましたが、一人体調不良で
2人で参加しました。
ピックアップは時間より少し遅れて・・・
ボートには3家族で乗り、
日本人用に説明書きのパウチがありました。
写真を撮るか撮らないかも聞かれました。
＄30で買わないなぁと思ったので断りました。
海ポチャか船に降ろすか選べます。
他の方はみんな海にドボン！
私は携帯で動画を撮りたかったので船に降ろしてもらいました。
戻りのバンがどこなのかわからず、、、
行きのバンの運転手がいたので、ホテル名を言うと
・・・、別のバンの運転手に●●ホテルと言い
乗るように促されました。
何となく、忘れられた？
名前を呼ばれたらわかるはずだけど呼ばれた感じもなく。。。
まぁ、無事ホテルまで戻れたので良し。
午前中に戻ってくるので午後も遊べます。

I participated in a submarine tour for the first time. At first, I waited and waited at the meeting point for the 9:30 tour, but no one came, and it was almost 10:00. I started to worry that I had gone to the wrong place and was about to give up when the pickup finally arrived. Although we started off on a negative note, the submarine tour itself was great. We got to see sea turtles, and the kids were excited throughout their first experience in a submarine and seeing the underwater scenery. Not only was the underwater experience amazing, but the views from the boat were also fantastic. We could see Diamond Head the whole time, and we took a lot of great photos. It became a wonderful memory of our time in Hawaii, and I am very satisfied.

初めて潜水艦ツアーに参加しました。
最初、9:30の集合場所に待っても待っても迎えが来ず、時間は10:00前に。場所を間違えてしまったのかと不安になり、もう無理だと諦めかけたところに遅れて迎えが到着。スタートはマイナスからでしたが、潜水艦ツアー自体は良かったです。海亀も見れたし、子供達も初めての潜水艦や海底の景色に終始興奮気味でした。海の中も去ることながら、船からの景色も最高でした。ずっとダイヤモンドヘッドが見え、たくさんいい写真がとれました。ハワイでの良い思い出になり、大満足です。

It was fishing while moving around. There was a lot of sandy ground, and the signs of life were low.

It would be quite difficult unless more bait is spread out.

ポイントを移動しながらの釣りでした
砂地が多く、生命反応が低かったですね

もっと撒きえをしてもらわないと、なかなか難しいです

I had more fun than I expected. The staff also entertained me, and I was very satisfied without even realizing it. It was really cool. Thank you!

思った以上にたのしめ スタッフさんも楽しませて頂き 気づかないもよく 大変満足しました
しかしカッコ良かったです
ありがとうございます
