I heard about parasailing and thought, "It sounds fun since you go to a high place," so I casually signed up. To be honest, I didn't have high expectations before going. However, once I actually did it, I was amazed! It was incredibly fun!!
Being up so high and having the stunning view of Hawaii stretching to the horizon was exhilarating! I definitely recommend this to anyone who hasn't tried it yet.
However, the boat sways a lot, so seasickness is a must... Don't forget to bring motion sickness medication.
パラセイリングと聞いて「高い所に行くから楽しそうだな~」と気軽に申し込んでみたものの、行く前まではあまり期待大ではなかったのが正直なところです。しかし実際にやってみて感動!めちゃくちゃ楽しいです!!
こんなに高い所に生身で上がれて、かつ景色が抜群にいいハワイが水平線まで見渡せるという状況に興奮しっぱなし!!
これは間違いなくまだやったことない人にはお勧めです。
しかし、船がとても揺れるので、船酔いは必須。。酔い止め薬は忘れずに。

I went on my first day in Hawaii.
The massage after a long flight was truly relaxing.
Not only did I receive a body massage, but the gentle conversation with the staff also eased my mind.
The process involves choosing an aroma oil and enjoying a generous stone massage.
It was my first experience, but it felt wonderful.
I will definitely request it again next time!
The cost performance is also good, so I recommend it.
Thank you very much!
ハワイ初日に行ってきました。
長いフライトのあとのマッサージは本当に癒されました。
体のマッサージだけでなく、優しくお話してくださる担当の方に心もほぐしていただきました。
流れはアロマオイルを選んで、ストーンマッサージをたっぷりしていただけます。
初めての体験でしたがとても気持ちよかったです。
次回もまた絶対にお願いします!!
コストパフォーマンスもよいのでオススメです。
本当にありがとうございました。

This was a repeat activity for us so obviously we like it before. It is surprisingly peaceful once you are up in the air and the views are spectacular. I like to stick my arms out a la Superman; I figure this is the closest I'll ever get to feeling like I'm flying. The only negative is my wife didn't care for it the last time, so she just went as an observer (rides in the boat but doesn't parasail). She loves the boat ride so that works for her, but the crew doesn't let anyone go up solo so if you don't have a partner, you end up going up with some stranger. The crew is good at what they do and are very safety conscious.

This was the second time we've done the Starlight Luau. We liked it the first time and we weren't disappointed the second time around. The biggest plus is the food; it is varied and delicious. The performers are pretty good as well. The one negative is the setup; the tables are packed so everyone is crammed together like sardines. A little more elbow room would make this a 5 star review. We've been to other luau's that you need to take a 40 minute bus ride to get repeatedly bitten by bugs on the beach; this one has better food and far more convenience.

I participated with my husband’s parents and our family of three. Since there were three of us, I thought we would split into two and one, but we were able to ride together as a group of three. My fifth-grade daughter was scared, but it seems she had a lot of fun. The view from high up was amazing, and we were moved to see all of Waikiki. My husband’s parents, who are celebrating their 60th birthday, were also very happy. For $25, we had about 260 photos taken with 2GB of storage. They turned out really well, and I’m glad we bought them. Since it was for five people, I think we got a particularly large number of photos. While we were on the boat, we also encountered a turtle. We were able to see a ray dancing around as well. It was a lot of fun.
主人の両親と家族3人で参加しました。
3人だったので、2人と1人になるのかと思っていましたが3人で一緒に乗らせてもらいました。
5年生の娘は怖がっていましたが、とても楽しかったみたいです。とても高くワイキキが一望出来て感動でした。
還暦の主人のご両親も、すごく喜んでいました。
25ドルで、2GBに写真を260枚ほど撮っていただきました。とてもよく撮れていて、買ってよかったです。
5人分だったので、特に枚数が多かったと思います。
船に乗っているときに、亀にも遭遇しました。
エイもくるくる踊っている所も見ることが出来ました。

As mentioned in other reviews, most participants were foreigners. On the day we attended, I believe there was only one other Japanese group besides us.
After departing from Waikiki Beach, there is a safety briefing and a drink explanation, all in English. Once the explanation is over, drinks are served, and then you can relax while watching the sunset.
On the day we participated, it started off sunny, but it became cloudy, and unfortunately, we couldn't see a beautiful sunset. However, we were able to enjoy a leisurely and elegant time out in the waters off Waikiki. The young foreign girls were dancing with drinks in hand the whole time! Don't worry if you can't speak English at all! With so few Japanese people around, you can really feel like you're abroad.
Please make sure to use the restroom before boarding! You should assume there is no restroom on the boat. (There is one, but it has a terrible smell, and you really have to brace yourself to use it...) Well, it's for emergencies!
But other than that, it was fantastic! The next time I go to Hawaii, I will definitely sign up again!
他の方の口コミにもあるように、参加者の大半の方が外国人でした。私たちが参加したこの日も、日本人は私たち以外に1組だけだったと思います。
ワイキキビーチを出発すると、安全確認の説明と、ドリンクの説明があります。全て英語です。その説明が終わると、ドリンクが配られ、あとはサンセットを見ながらのんびりです。
私たちが参加したこの日は、最初は晴れていたのですが、途中から曇ってしまい、あいにくキレイなサンセットは見れませんでした。でも、ワイキキの沖でゆっくりのんびり、優雅な時間を過ごせました。外人の若い女の子たちは、終始お酒片手に踊っていましたよ☆ 英語ができなくても全然大丈夫!日本人が少ないので、外国を感じることができます。
くれぐれも、乗船する前にトイレは済ませて下さい!船にはトイレが無いと思った方がいいです。(あるにはあるけど、ひどい悪臭で、相当覚悟しないと入れないと思います・・・) まぁ、緊急用ですね!
でもそれ以外は最高です!
次回ハワイに行ったら、必ずまた申し込みます☆

I picked this cruise because I wanted to get out and do something for the Fourth of July, but I didn't want the hassle of dealing with huge crowds of people, fighting traffic, and being around a bunch of screaming teenagers running around.
This was the perfect choice for me. I am a big guy, so I like to eat...buffet style all the way, and I am a happy man. So the food was good. Drinks were available at reasonable prices, and the best part was nobody seemed to be there to get drunk, but just enjoyed some drinks and the night. The fireworks were the best ending to a good night. I made a great choice, obviously.

It was fun and felt like a resort, but since six groups were boarding, we were swaying for over an hour, and the seasickness was intense. Almost everyone got sick. Moreover, we were the sixth group out of six, and when we took off, I felt nauseous and nervous, so my condition was at its worst.
However, once we actually took off, it felt really good, and there was absolutely no fear, so my boyfriend, who has a fear of heights, seemed to enjoy it. But whether we actually flew to the specified height, I couldn't tell at all from a layman's perspective! (laughs)
At the end, we bought the photos taken by the instructor, but they didn't give us our change back. Even though we gave a tip separately...

It was very enjoyable and interesting. The splashes of the waves were exhilarating, the swaying was like a roller coaster, and I was impressed by the deep blue color of the ocean. The view from offshore Waikiki was spectacular.
Among the participants, we were the only two Asians, and most seemed to be mainland Americans visiting for tourism (based on their accents).
Because of this, it was a very lively cruise. Indeed, the atmosphere tends to decline significantly when there are Japanese people on board.
If you don't understand Japanese and aren't quite fluent in English, you won't be able to grasp what the crew is saying. It was fun!!
大変楽しく面白かったでうす。
波しぶきは受けるは、ゆれはジェットコースター並みで、海の色の青さには、感激しました。
ワイキキの沖からの景色は絶景でした。
参加者は、東洋人は私たち2人だけで、ほとんどが、観光で着ているメインランドのアメリカ人のようでした。
(言葉のなまりで判断)
それなので、非常にのりのよいクルージングでした。やはり、のりのよさはでは、日本人がいると、かなり悪くなってしまいます。
日本語は通じず、かなり英語がしゃべれる人でないと、クルーの言っていることは、不明です。
面白かった!!

I think there were about 25 people on board, and we were the only Japanese. However, it was a cruise where couples, families, and friends could all truly enjoy themselves in their own ways.
Everyone participated in their own way, but there was a sense of unity among us. My family, for instance, had the chance to take photos with an American couple in front of us, and at times, couples were hugging and kissing. A group of young girls was having a blast, dancing to the music at the front of the boat while getting splashed with water.
Thanks to the staff's attentiveness, everyone maintained a good distance from each other, and I can honestly say there was nothing to complain about. The beautiful sea, the view of Waikiki, and the pleasant breeze made it all perfect.
My 78-year-old father was a bit anxious before boarding, but after the cruise, he unexpectedly said, "I had so much fun, I want to do it again." I was truly glad to have him join us for this first experience.
乗船は25名ぐらいだったと思います、日本人は我々だけでしたがカップル、家族、友人同士それぞれが思い思いに本当に楽しめるクルーズでした。
参加の仕方はそれぞれですが、全員の一体感もあり家族で参加した私たちも前のアメリカ人のカップルと写真を撮りあったりする時間もあり、時にはカップルは抱き合ってキスしていたりと・・。
若い女の子のグループはめちゃくちゃはしゃいで水を浴びる船の先端で音楽に合せて踊っていました。
とにかくスタッフの気配りのおかげでみんな良い距離感を保てているし、おせじ抜きに言う事無しです。
綺麗な海とワイキキの景色、心地よい風。
78才の父も乗船前は不安になっていたのですが、終わってから「とても楽しかった、もう一度乗りたい」と想定外の言葉が飛び出して、初体験の父を一緒に参加させてよかったと心から思いました。

I've been to Hawaii many times, but after turning 60, I had one regret. I wanted to try surfing at least once! However, participating in the Outrigger Catamaran Sailing made me feel like my dream came true. The view of Waikiki, Diamond Head, the blue sky, and the azure sea from the water was breathtaking. I even found the strength of the wind and the coolness of the sea spray to be pleasant. The perspective was different from the dinner cruise I had taken before; it felt as if I was flying over the waves... Unfortunately, since it was in the evening, I didn't encounter any sea turtles. Next time, I definitely want to join a morning sailing to meet the sea turtles! If possible, I would love to see dolphins too! This was an activity I would love to participate in again. Thank you very much.

I took my sister on this sail last night..and this is by far the best sail (tour wise) this island has to offer. Tropical winds, beautiful deep blue ocean and amazing hawaiian coastal scenery.
Crew on-board both the Spirit of Aloha and Honi Olani are superb and exceed your service expectations. Fortunately, for the adult beverage people, this became an Open bar sail (Beer is usually $1 and mixed drinks are $2) but this is because the boat departed late.
No one comes on-board to get drunk or rowdy..we were all in silent agreement to enjoy our drinks, enjoy our scrumptious dinner and have a wonderful time.. everyone on-board did just that.
Everyone who boarded the vessel were strangers, but we all became friends by the end of the night. Thank You Hawai' Nautical for a wonderful evening of good food, drinks, friendly conversations and laughter.

This is a really convenient luau. In good walking distance or a cab ride away from all the hotels and incredibly delicious food. Be sure to get the Golden Circle, because we did and we had excellent front row type of seating. CHECK IN EARLY TO BYPASS THE CROWD!!!
Some bad "Cons" about this is:
there is no good/ romantic picture taking scenery, chairs are situated very close to eachother so your banging elbows with the next person, its on the top of a parking lot structure and its just surrounded by a bunch of buildings.
Staff was friendly, water is always provided, the Food is BETTER tasting from all the other Luau's I have been too.. so that is a plus.

I was worried about the cloudy sky in the morning, but with the completely clear blue sky, I felt like a yachtsman. We were the only Japanese people, but we enjoyed sailing together with people from various nationalities. The color of the sea was stunning, perfectly described as cobalt blue and ocean blue. The yacht, boldly sailing against the wind on the sea, was more enjoyable than I expected.

I wasn't sure about a Luau IN Waikiki but this one was really enjoyable. You don't have to take a bus 45 minutes each way or more outside of Waikiki, as you have to do with the other Luau's, which is a real plus! The food was excellent with a big assortment so there's really something that everyone would like. There's not really a bad seat in the house either. Of course we were sitting front row and it was pretty cool. Worth the extra bucks, in my opinion. The performers were really top notch. I'm not sure what I expected but they definitely exceeded anything I could have imagined. Definitely the best fire-dancers I've ever seen and I live here, so I've seen many. The whole experience was really fun and impressive. A great way to experience the culture of the islands.

I've been on other snorkeling cruises but was REALLY IMPRESSED with the boat and the crew. The boat was very clean, open and comfortable. Having great his and her bathrooms was a nice plus as well. The crew were fun, informative and professional. They make you feel very comfortable and taken care of. Swimming with the turtles was a total treat. There's a crew member in the water with you the entire time and they are not only looking out for your safety but are answering questions about the fish, turtles and the total area. In addition, they are educating you so you really "swim" away knowing more than when you came. The sailing portion was really relaxing and peaceful. It's great to see Waikiki & Diamond Head Crater from the water and being able to leave on this trip from the Hilton is a real plus. Even the food and snacks were good. I would definitely recommend this trip.

When I participated, there were seven foreigners and four Japanese people. There was also an explanation in Japanese, and I had a lot of fun. If you pay an additional $30, the staff over there will take photos with their camera. They gave me the photos along with an SD card. I think it's a good deal since I got 140 photos with a 2GB card. It seems that it’s also possible for three people, as the foreign guests were a couple with a child.

It was just me and my friend, completely out of place among the Japanese, but the lively atmosphere and upbeat music really lifted our spirits! Surrounded by refreshing winds and the sea, it felt amazing. We encountered a large group of dolphins up close, and they even spun around like in a dolphin show. It's truly surprising to see this in the wild. Additionally, we were able to see sea turtles very close by, which was very satisfying. I recommend this for anyone who wants to see dolphins and turtles! I think it's a tour that can be enjoyed by couples, friends, and families alike. Don't worry, it's not a tour where you get too wet! Also, there are two hotels in Waikiki, Outrigger and Outrigger Reef, so make sure you don't accidentally go to Outrigger Beach! It's right next to Halekulani~~^^ It was a relaxing tour amidst a packed Hawaii trip.

I was drawn in by the campaign price and decided to participate.
The yacht was relatively small, accommodating about 17 people. We boarded with my spouse and our 9-month-old baby, making three of us. The other guests were all foreigners (three groups, about seven people).
The boat left the sandy beach, started the engine, and headed a few hundred meters offshore. Once we were out at sea, we raised the yacht's sails and enjoyed the ride powered only by the wind. This was incredibly refreshing. Thanks to the cheerful captain and crew, the upbeat music kept the energy high throughout the trip! The alcohol mixed with tropical juice (for an extra charge) was perfect for this boat.
Although my spouse and I usually get motion sickness, we were able to enjoy ourselves this time without feeling seasick at all.
We even got to see sea turtles swimming, making this a thoroughly satisfying activity.

My wife and I participated together. The catamaran's docking location was right in front of us, accessible via a paved path leading from the Outrigger Hotel to the beach between the Halekulani Hotel. There were about twenty participants, and we were the only Japanese, but it was not a problem at all. Since our feet would get wet, we prepared to set sail in our swimsuits. The instructions were given in English, and we were able to leave our sandals and board barefoot. I tend to get seasick, so I quickly sat next to the center mast. The tour departed at 3 PM, and fortunately, the weather was great. As soon as we set sail, we spotted the silhouette of a sea turtle in the water. As we headed out, the sea, which had been calm, began to get choppy, resembling a bit of an amusement park ride. Other guests were squealing with excitement every time they got splashed by the waves. The view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the ocean was refreshing and created wonderful memories. I didn't give a perfect score of five stars overall because, on the way back to the beach, I got a bit cold after being splashed by seawater for a long time, which lowered my mood. I think it's best to wear a swimsuit if you sit at the bow, as you'll get wet often, but if you're near the captain, you might not get splashed as much.
妻と2人で参加しました。カタマラン号の停泊場所は、アウトリガーホテルとハレクラニホテルの敷地間のビーチへ続く舗装道があって、そこを通ると目の前でした。参加者は20数名、日本人は私たちだけでしたが特に問題なし。足元が濡れるので水着の状態で出航準備。英語で案内があって、サンダルを預かってもらって裸足で乗船。私は船に酔いやすいので、急いで中心の帆柱の横に座りました。午後3時出発のツアーで幸い天気もよく、出航してすぐ海中に海カメのシルエットを発見。沖に出ると次第におだやかだった海も波が高くなり、ちょっとした遊園地のアトラクションのようでした。他の客は波を被るたびにキャッキャ言っていました。沖から見るワイキキビーチ、ダイヤモンドヘッドの景色は爽快で、良い思い出となりました。総合評価で満点5つ☆にしなかったのは、ビーチへ帰るときに、長い間海水を被って少し冷えてテンションが下がってしまったことです。帆先に座るとよく濡れるので水着が良いと思いますが、船長近くの場所であれば、濡れることも少ないと思います。

Parasailing was so much fun! Due to the weather, only two groups, including us, were able to fly... but we were lucky to be the last ones to board the boat despite our packed schedule!
I was nervous until we took off, but the beautiful view of Waikiki and the round rainbow we saw when looking down were amazing!
Since we understood English, we were able to enjoy it, but it might be a bit inconvenient for those who don't speak English. They speak quickly, and I think you might wonder what they are saying.
I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take some medication.

It was my honeymoon! I was torn between this and a three-star option, but I definitely think this one is better. There are crew members who are second-generation Japanese, so language is not a problem at all, which is reassuring. The ship is smaller than I expected (it has sails) and feels like a luxurious cruise.
The food is a buffet. You can take whatever you like whenever you want, but there are no refills, so if you don't eat the good stuff early on, it will be gone (laughs). However, overall, the flavors are delicious even for Japanese people, and I enjoyed a lot of it! (Desserts are served later too☆)
The sunset is truly beautiful! There’s nothing obstructing the fireworks, so it’s really nice.
On the last day of my honeymoon, I made some wonderful memories!
ハネムーンでした!
スリースターと迷ったんですが、断然こっちのほうがいいとおもいます♪日系二世のクルーがいるので、言葉も全く問題なく安心です。思ったよりはだいぶ小さい船(帆が付いています)でお金持ちのクルージングって感じ。
料理はビュッフェ?です。好きな時に好きなモノを取って食べる感じですが、追加はないので、最初の方に食べないと美味しいモノはなくなります(笑)でも、全体的に日本人にも美味しい味付けで沢山いただきました♪(後でデザートも出てきます☆)
夕日はほんとに綺麗です!花火も遮るものが何もないのでとてもいいです☆
ハネムーンの最終日、
とってもステキな思い出ができました♪

It was an evening cruise, and I had a really great time. At first, it was fine to wear a short-sleeved shirt since the sun was out, but as we went out to sea, it gradually got colder. I think it's a good idea to prepare something to wear over your clothes. Also, when you get on the boat, your feet will get wet, so wearing shorts or capri pants is best. The captain tells American jokes and sometimes uses Japanese.
夕方のクルージングでしたが、とてもとても楽しめました。
最初は日が出ていたため半袖で平気でしたが、海へ出て徐々に寒くなってきます。何か羽織る服を準備するといいと思います。
あとボートに乗るとき足が海に入るのでハーフパンツか短パンがベストです。
キャプテンのトークはアメリカンジョークをとばしてます。
時に日本語使ってくれます。
