All Reviews for Waikiki Beach, Oahu

This was our second time on the cruise, as my child really enjoyed it the first time. The waves are bigger in winter, which might make it more fun with the rocking motion. For those who prefer a calm cruise, summer is recommended. Since you're out on the sea, you can get quite sunburned. I recommend taking extra precautions against sunburn, even more than when you're at the beach. We also saw turtles and dolphins, which excited both the adults and the kids.

以前乗船し、子供が気に入っていたので、2回目の乗船でした。
波が大きい冬場の方が揺れがあって楽しいかもしれません。
穏やかなクルーズを希望する方は夏場がオススメです。
海の上なので、かなり日焼けします。日焼けしたくない方は、ビーチに居る時以上にしっかり日焼け対策をすることをお勧めします。
亀やイルカも見られて、大人も子供も大興奮でした。

Unfortunately, the water was murky, and it didn't feel like a very beautiful underwater walk. (I think it depends on the season...) Also, the inside of the submarine was very cold, and the seats were chilly, so I was desperately trying to endure the cold in the second half. (It's essential to bring warm clothing.) I had gone to the restroom before getting on the submarine, but my child got really cold, and in the end, it turned into a "I need to go to the restroom!" situation, which made me anxious.

残念ながら水が濁っていて、あまりキレイな海中散歩という感じではありませんでした。（時期にもよると思いますが・・・）
また潜水艦の中がとても寒くて、シートも冷え冷えなので、後半は寒さに耐えるのに必死・・・。（防寒着持参必須です。）
潜水艦に乗る前にトイレを済ませていたけれど、子供が冷え切って、最後はトイレ～～～～という感じになってしまい、ハラハラしました。

I’ve done a few Catamaran sails in Waikiki and this one is by far my favourite. The staff are experienced and friendly and the turtles are amazing. After a snorkel, a Mai Tai and a sail is the perfect end to a fantastic morning!

Our group of five girls from Australia had a ball! The crew were super friendly and welcoming and looked after our safety as their number one priority. The swim was spectacular, we saw heaps of fish and turtles, the sail was gorgeous I would highly recommend this as a great way to spend some time out at sea.

It was my first time surfing, and the instructor was from overseas and could speak a little Japanese, but he was a cheerful person and it was fun! (laughs)

サーフィンは初めてで、インストラクターも海外の方で少し日本語が話せる程度でしたが陽気な方で楽しかったです（笑）

The view from a height of 150 meters is breathtaking. I was surprised by the quiet atmosphere. My family of four participated, and we were very satisfied.

150ｍの高さから見る景色は絶景です。
静かな空間にびっくりでした。
家族４人で参加しましたが、大満足でした。

Starting from Waikiki Beach, it's convenient if you're staying in Waikiki. You don't need to wake up particularly early.

When I participated in the dolphin tour, the meeting time was early in the morning, which was tough, and the dolphins just zipped by, so it didn't feel like swimming with them. In contrast, the sea turtles swam leisurely close by, which was very soothing. There were also plenty of fish swimming around.

I can't swim in deep water where my feet don't touch the bottom, but they provide something like a life vest, so I just float along.

I went with elementary and preschool children, and although we repeated the experience, they seemed scared of jumping into the sea, so we quickly retreated from snorkeling. Still, the experience of cutting through the wind off Waikiki on the catamaran was priceless.

出発がワイキキビーチなので、ワイキキ滞在であれば便利です。特別早起きする必要もないし。

イルカツアーに参加した時は集合時間が早朝で辛かったし、イルカはビュンビュン通過してしまうのでいっしょに泳ぐという感じではありませんでした。その点、ウミガメさんはゆったりと間近で泳いでくれて癒し度が高い。魚もいっぱい泳いでました。

私は足のつかない深さのところは泳げませんが、救命ベスト(？)のようなのをつけるのでぷかーっと浮きます。

小学生と幼稚園の子供と行きましたが、リピートですが、海にドボンが怖いようで、シュノーケリングは早々に退散。それでもカタマラン号でワイキキ沖の風を切る体験はプライスレスかと。

It was incredibly fun! The breeze felt nice, and the scenery was beautifully stunning. For $30, you can have a professional camera take beautiful photos, and you'll receive about 70 digital images. It's also possible to collaborate with other participants to take videos, so I definitely recommend working together with everyone.

めちゃくちゃ楽しいの一言に尽きます！
風も気持ちよく、景色も最高に綺麗でした♪
30＄払えば一眼レフで綺麗な写真を撮ってくれ、データで70枚程度いただけます。
ほかの参加者と協力して、動画を取り合うことも可能なので是非皆さんで協力するのをおススメします。

The sunset was incredibly beautiful and moving. The rocking was more intense than I expected, and almost all the Japanese passengers were down (laughs). If you're prone to motion sickness, it might be better to skip it. I had a great time, but my wife was on the verge of throwing up. In a way, it became a good memory!

夕日は最高に綺麗で、感動的でした。
揺れは思っているよりも激しく、乗っている日本人はほぼ全員ダウンしていました(笑)
酔いやすい方はやめておいた方が良いかも。
私はすごく楽しかったですが、妻は吐く寸前でした。ある意味良い思い出になりました！

Was a great experience. Picked us up outside our place on the beach (Moana Surfrider). The crew were super hospitable and provided a good atmosphere to enjoy the Friday Night Fireworks. Great spot and cold drinks.

We did the Friday night fireworks cruise and it was a blast! Fantastic crew that made sure the drinks were always flowing, so much fun!

This is a unique experience, so I signed up for the 150m option. The shuttle was a bit late, which made me anxious, but they arrived properly. The driver also apologized. In the early morning time slot, I was with a Japanese newlywed couple and an American family. The weather was nice, so it felt really good! There were moments when I felt a sudden drop, but that was part of the fun. The flight time was just a few minutes, but I enjoyed it enough. I wasn't asked about getting wet, so I ended up soaked up to my waist. If you don't want to get wet, it seems you need to mention it before flying. I took the photos myself, and I asked the Japanese person for some shots from below. We tipped $10 for the two of us. The boat sways a bit. Since it was early in the morning, I participated without having breakfast, and I felt a bit nauseous later on. I should have eaten something. (For some people, eating might make them feel more nauseous...)

なかなかできる体験ではないので150mで申し込みしました。
送迎は少し遅れてドキドキしましたが、ちゃんと来てもらえました笑。ドライバーさんも謝っていました。朝一の時間帯で日本人の新婚ご夫婦と米国のファミリーと一緒でした。
天気もよかったのでとても気持ちがいいです！たまにガクンと降下する感じがしましたがそれもまた一興です。飛行時間は数分ですが十分楽しめました。海ポチャについては何も聞かれなかったので腰まで濡れました。嫌な方は飛ぶ前に申し出る必要がありそうです。
写真は自分で撮りました。下からの写真は日本人の方にお願いしました。チップは2人で10ドルお支払いしました。
ボートは少し揺れます。朝早かったので朝食を食べずに参加したのですが後半少し酔った感じがしました。何か食べておけばよかったです。(人によっては食べた方が酔ってしまうかもしれません…)

I booked the highest one at 150m! Since I made a reservation for the early morning, there were only two other groups participating, so there was no waiting time while flying, which was stress-free. And when I thought it might be scary, it actually felt great, and the view was amazing. I felt a sense of superiority looking at the streets of Hawaii from the sky while basking in the morning sun (laughs). You have to wake up early, but I highly recommend the early morning slot!

Overall it was a good experience. The water was clear. The boat was in good condition. The crew were friendly and professional. Snorkeling gear was in good condition. I can suggest taking fins if you feel like it. The trip was a good 2h. Good snorkeling with heaps of turtles and fish followed by a nice sailing cruise. The drinks were good en more than enough to go around. Most definitely worth going!

I made a reservation for 13 people for a company trip. Most of us were foreigners, but there were no issues at all. We boarded the boat before 6 PM, and watching the sunset over the sea was amazing and moving. Although it was March, the sea at sunset can be a bit chilly, so I think it's better to have something to wear. If you drink too much, you'll need to go to the restroom, but it's very cramped... It might take a bit of courage to go.

会社の慰安旅行で13名で予約しました。ほとんどが外国人でしたが全然問題ありませんでした。
午後6時前に船に乗り込み夕暮れを見ながらの海は最高で感動しました。
３月でしたが夕暮れの海は肌寒いので羽織るものがあったほうがいいと思います。
飲みすぎるとトイレに行きたくなりますが非常狭くて…。ちょっと行くのに勇気がいるかもです。

Tour was lovely. Saw some turtles in deeper snorkelling just out from waikiki beach. Quite packed with other tour groups snorkelling. Recommend to head to the outside of the crowd and bring your own flippers. Service was great!

There are no instructions in Japanese, as there are few Japanese participants, but I didn't have any particular issues. Additionally, it was great to see Diamond Head from a different angle since we went further out than I expected. I was very satisfied to see whales, dolphins, and a rainbow. I would like to participate again on Friday. Considering the price and content, I highly recommend it.

日本人参加者が少ないため日本語での案内はありませんが、特に困ったことはありませんでした。
また、思った以上沖に出るのでダイヤモンドヘッドを違った角度から見ることができて良かったです。
クジラ、イルカ、虹も見ることができ大満足。
次は金曜日に参加したいと思います。
金額、内容を考えるととてもオススメです。

It was stable as we ascended, and there was no fear at all. My 70-year-old parents also experienced it and loved it. I think the middle height is sufficient. In the latter half, it can be a bit dizzying, so taking motion sickness medication beforehand would help you enjoy it throughout!

安定した状態で上空に上がり、怖さもなかった。70歳の両親も体験して良かったと大好評。真ん中の高さで十分だと思う。後半は、少し酔うので酔い止めを飲んでおくと終始楽しめると思う！

I participated in a tour that started at 10 AM with a Japanese-speaking guide. The guide spoke somewhat difficult-to-understand Japanese, possibly because they were of Japanese descent, but their witty and lively talk made it really enjoyable. I was able to see the submarine submerging into the ocean and then emerging from it, so I captured some great videos. We encountered turtles twice underwater, but they moved away quickly, so I couldn't get them on camera. It might be better to keep filming continuously. The kids were also very satisfied with the experience of riding a submarine, which they can't do in Japan.

日本語ガイドのある10時からのツアーに参加しました。ガイドさんは日系人なのか、やや聴き取りづらい日本語でしたが、ウィットに富んだ軽快なトークで凄く楽しめました。潜水艦が海中に沈むところや海中から現れるところも見れたのでバッチリ動画に収めました。海中ではカメに２回遭遇しましたが、あっという間に移動していきカメラには撮れませんでした。動画で撮影し続けた方が良いかもしれません。日本では体験出来ない潜水艦乗船に子供達も大満足でした。

Good trip and having funs, beautiful views and the water was so clear that you can see the bottom

We participated in parasailing as a family. It was great that transportation was included, so we could join right from the hotel in our swimsuits. The captains were very cheerful and accommodating, which was nice. We were lucky enough to see a whale, and we were very satisfied! ^_^

家族でパラセーリングに参加しました。送迎も付いているのでホテルから水着のままでも参加出来てとても良かったです。キャプテン達もとても陽気で気軽に対応してくれるし良かったです。運良くクジラも見れて大満足でした^_^

I was sitting right at the front by the net and got completely soaked from the splashes! But that's a good memory. If you don't want to get wet, I think it's better to sit further back (^ - ^) I wanted to see dolphins and whales, but it might be better to join a dedicated tour for that.

一番前のネットの脇に座っていましたら、しぶきでずぶ濡れになりました！
それもいい思い出です。
濡れたくなかったら、奥に座ればいいと思います(^-^)
イルカとクジラに会いたかったけど、それには専用のツアーがいいかもしれません。

Crew were friendly and fun and the catamaran was very good and comfortable.

The snorkel site was not very good though. Visibility was very murky and the few Turtles we saw were grey blobs in the distance. Poor assortment of fish to see compared to other locations we have been to.

Would book again, but only for the sailing tours, not the snorkelling.

I received an email from Mr. T.S. about the family trip, and everyone was very happy! I definitely want to participate when we go during Golden Week.

家族旅行で、出かけたT.Sさんからメールで
皆さんたいへん喜ばれてました！
ゴールデンウィークに行く時は、是非参加して見たい。

I participated with my grandchildren (5 years old and 3 years old). It was fun. Seeing the happy faces of my grandchildren makes the high cost seem reasonable. If it were a little cheaper, I wouldn't have any complaints.

孫連れ（５歳、３歳）での参加でした。楽しかったです。孫のうれしそうな顔をみると、高い費用も安く思えてきます。もう少し安かったら文句なしですね。

It's been years since I last went sailing in Waikiki. No matter how many times I ride, it always feels great. It seems that not many Japanese people go, but once you try it, you'll definitely be hooked. The view of the Waikiki hotels and Diamond Head from the ocean is completely different from seeing it from land. This time, the weather was great, and the wind was perfect—it was the best day ever.

何年ぶりかのワイキキセーリング
何度乗っても気持ち良い。
あまり日本人は乗らなみたいですが、乗ったら病みつき間違いなしです。
沖から見る　ワイキキのホテル、ダイヤモンドヘッドは陸から見るのとは大違いです。　今回もい天気良く、風も良く最高の1日でした。

I took motion sickness medication, but it didn't help at all. The ride was quite bumpy. I didn't vomit, but I felt unwell, and even though there was an all-you-can-drink option, I couldn't finish my first drink. The high-energy voices of the other passengers and crew only made my nausea and headache worse. It's my own fault, but I will never participate again. I absolutely cannot recommend this for those who are prone to motion sickness or have concerns!

酔い止めを服用していきましたが、全然ダメでした。かなり揺れます。吐きはしませんでしたが気分不良で、飲み放題とのことですが、一杯目も飲みきれず。テンション高めな乗客とクルーの声で余計に嘔気と頭痛が悪化しました。自業自得ですが、二度と参加することは無いです。酔いやすい、もしくは心配な方には、絶対オススメできません！

Since I was staying at the Hilton Hawaiian Village, the meeting place was very easy to find and convenient. From the boat that took us to the submarine, we had a great view of Waikiki Beach and took memorable photos with Diamond Head in the background! We even got to see sea turtles!

Before long, we arrived at the submarine. The transfer was safe and secure. The underwater visibility was clear without any murkiness. While we couldn't see fish as large as those in the brochure right in front of us, we did see many small fish swimming around.

Around the sunken airplane and ship on the ocean floor, we spotted a lot of fish! We were able to enjoy watching the ocean floor for longer than expected, which was fun for both kids and adults. There are headphones for a Japanese guide, but you can have a great time even without listening to it.

ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジに泊まっていたので、集合場所はとてもわかりやすく、便利でした。
潜水艦まで移動する船からは、ワイキキのビーチを一望でき、ダイアモンドヘッドをバックに記念撮影！海ガメにも会えました！
程なく潜水艦まで到着。移動も安全安心です。
海中は濁りもなく、よく見えました。パンフレットほどの大きさ、目の前に、とはなかなかなりませんが、小さな魚たちが泳ぐ姿が多く見られました。
海底に沈む飛行機や船の周りでは、多くの魚たちを見られます！
予想以上に長い時間、ゆっくり海底を見られて、子どもも大人も楽しめました。
日本語ガイドのヘッドホンがありますが、特にそれを聞かなくても十分楽しめます。

The captain and tour guide were very friendly and informative. The view from the water was awesome. We saw a few fish and a turtle, which was great and unexpected. Just a very nice time out on the water.

One of the highlights of my trip. Definitely do it. The guides are friendly and fun
