A world without Nemo ニモのいない世界

Reviewed by: クマノミハッピー

You don't need to worry about Japanese at all. Our guide, Takako, took care of everyone! She is the best guide I've ever had in the world. It was a fun day of snorkeling. She accurately pointed out the spot where we could see sea turtles. Meeting Takako on Maui was the highlight. I'm looking forward to seeing her again.

日本語の心配は、全くいりません。ガイドの(たかこ)さんが全ての人に気をかけてくださいます！今までのガイドさんで世界一の方です。
楽しいスノーケリングが出来た一日でした。
ウミガメのいる場所も、ピタリと当てられました。マウイ島で(たかこ)さんに会えたのが、最高でした。また、たかこさんに会えるのを楽しみにしております。

Even older participants could join with peace of mind! 年配でも安心して参加できました‼︎

Reviewed by: まささん

We participated as a couple in our 70s. Thanks to the energetic Japanese staff who provided attentive support to the Japanese participants, we had a wonderful snorkeling cruise. Thank you very much.

Upon boarding, we were served breakfast. Shortly after, the Japanese staff explained how to spend time on the boat and confirmed the schedule. This was very helpful for Japanese participants who do not understand English. Additionally, I have hearing difficulties, but the staff explained things in a loud and very clear voice, which made me feel at ease. The staff advised us that Japanese people should act proactively without feeling shy or reserved. Indeed, when we followed that advice, everything went smoothly. I truly appreciated their constant care throughout the trip.

The snorkeling set, fins, life jackets, inflatable rings, and noodles (foam sticks) were provided for free. They rented wetsuits for $10, but the water was surprisingly warm, and wearing a rash guard was sufficient, so I didn't need the wetsuit. Sunscreen was available for free, but it was quite thick and left a white residue.

We were told to wear fins, but since it was my first time using them, I initially didn't know how to move properly. However, I gradually got used to them and figured out the technique; extending my legs while imagining climbing stairs helped me move faster. However, there was no instruction on this, so it might be good to prepare in advance.

The water was very clear, and I was surprised to see even the spines of sea urchins. However, we didn't see colorful fish or sea turtles. There were also foreigners doing snuba diving at the bottom of the sea.

We snorkeled twice near Molokini and Maui, and lunch was provided in between. At the end, a cold beer (all-you-can-drink) was delicious after swimming and feeling tired.

Even for older participants, it was a safe and incredibly enjoyable experience! I highly recommend this tour!

As a reference, I took motion sickness medication, so I didn't get seasick, but those who did seemed to struggle quite a bit. There was no place to store valuables, which was a bit of a hassle, so it might be best to bring only the essentials (like tips).

日本人70代年配夫婦で参加しました。
日本人参加者に対して、元気の良い日本人スタッフさんが丁寧にサポートしてくれたおかげで、楽しいシュノーケリングクルーズになりました。ありがとうございました。
乗船すると、朝食付きが振舞われました。その後すぐに、日本人スタッフさんから船内での過ごし方の説明、スケジュールの確認がありました。英語が分からない日本人にはありがたかったです。また、私は耳が遠いのですが、大きく通るとても聞き取りやすい声で説明してくれたので、安心できました。日本人は積極的に恥ずかしがらず、遠慮せずに行動するようにとアドバイスしてくれました。確かにその通りに行動すると、何事もスムーズに進みました。終始、気にかけてくれたのは本当にありがたかったです。
シュノーケルセット、足ひれ、ライフジャケット、胴回りの浮き輪、ヌードル（発泡スチロールの棒）は無料です。ウエットスーツは10ドルで貸してくれましたが、海の中は以外と暖かくラッシュガードを着れば、ウエットスーツは必要ありませんでした。日焼け止めは無料で置いてありましたが、かなり白くなるタイプです。
足ひれは必ず装着するように言われましたが、初めて使うので、最初はどのように動かしていいか分からなかったですが、だんだん慣れてきてコツが分かり、腿上げをしながら階段を登るイメージで脚を伸ばすと、早く進むようになりました。ただ、このような指導はありませんので、事前に予習するといいかもしれません。
水の中は透明度が高く、ウニの針まで見れたのは驚きでした。ただ、カラフルな魚や海亀は見れませんでした。海の底に潜る、スヌーバをやってる外国人の方もいました。
シュノーケリングはモロキニ島と、マウイ島近くで2回行い、途中昼食が提供され、最後泳ぎ疲れた身体に、ビール（飲み放題）が美味しかったです。
年配でも安心して参加でき、最高に楽しい時間を過ごせました‼︎お勧めのツアーです‼︎
参考までに…酔い止めを飲んだおかげで、船酔いはしませんでしたが、酔ってる人はかなり辛そうでした。貴重品を預ける場所がなく、困りましたので、なるべく最小限（チップぐらい）にするといいかもしれません。

Excellent transparency! 透明度抜群！

Reviewed by: おかさん

I went directly to the meeting point by rental car. There is free parking next to the aquarium. Be careful as the parking near the dock is paid.

After checking in, you will line up for boarding. The earlier you line up, the better seats you can get. The popular choice is the outdoor seating on the second floor, but for those who are prone to seasickness or worried about sunburn from being outside for too long, I recommend the central seating on the first floor. You can easily grab food and drinks.

For breakfast, they served fruit, croissants, muffins, coffee, and passion fruit juice. It was delicious and not overly sweet.

After breakfast, there will be an explanation from the Japanese staff. They provide quite detailed information, so it's definitely worth listening to.

There are two snorkeling spots: one is Molokini Island, and the other is a rocky area near Maui Island. Both have high visibility and many fish. Each snorkeling session lasts for one hour, but honestly, it goes by in a flash. I recommend lining up at the front of the line as early as possible to go snorkeling sooner.

After the first spot, it's time for lunch. You can choose from cheeseburgers, hot dogs, and chicken burgers grilled on the boat, but I recommend the cheeseburger.

The second snorkeling session was near Maui Island, and again, the visibility was high with plenty of fish.

Finally, there was an all-you-can-drink option until just before the Maui craft beer arrived! Crispy cookies were also distributed, and they were delicious.

Overall, it was a very satisfying tour!

レンタカーで直接集合場所に行きました。無料駐車場は水族館脇にあります。船着場近くの駐車場は有料なので注意です。
受付した人から乗船のための列に並びます。なるべく早く並んだ方が、良い席が取れます。人気は二階外席ですが、酔いやすい人や、長く外にいると日焼けの心配がある人は、一階の中央席がお勧めです。食べ物や飲み物もすぐに取りに行けます。
朝食はフルーツ、クロワッサン、マフィン、コーヒー、パッションフルーツジュースが出ます。甘さ控え目で美味しかったです。
朝食の後、すぐに日本人スタッフさんから説明があります。かなり詳しく説明をしてくれるので、必ず聞いた方がいいです。
潜るポイントは二箇所、一つはモロキニ島、もう一つはマウイ島付近の岩場でした。どちらも透明度が高く、魚も沢山いました。一箇所につき、シュノーケリングする時間は1時間ですが、あっという間に終わってしまったというのが正直なところです。なるべく、早く列のはじめに並び早めに潜りに行くことをお勧めします。
一箇所目が終わると、昼食になります。船上で焼いてくれるチーズバーガー、ホットドック、チキンバーガーから選べますが、チーズバーガーがお勧めです。
二箇所はもうマウイ島のそばまで戻ってきてからのシュノーケリングでしたが、透明度高く、魚が沢山いました。
最後はマウイの地ビールが到着する少し前まで、飲み放題‼︎サクサクのクッキーも配られました‼︎これがまた美味しかったです。
全てにおいて大満足のツアーでした‼︎

Snorkeling in the crystal-clear sea. 透き通るような海でシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: ねこぞう

< From Pickup to Arrival >

I was unsure about what to wear for departure, but since the only place to change was the restroom on the boat, I decided to wear my swimsuit underneath from the start and just put on a cover-up over it.

Upon arriving at the location by bus, there is a check-in process. There are Japanese check-in forms available, so filling them out is no problem. This is when you can finally talk to the Japanese staff.

Before and after departure, explanations are primarily given in English, but there will be individual explanations from the Japanese staff later, so if you don't understand English, you can just listen without worrying.

You should not leave your luggage on the bus; bring everything onto the boat. Just a voucher, towel, and a change of clothes for after snorkeling are sufficient.

< Motion Sickness Prevention >
The boat has a structure divided into the first and second floors. The second floor has a nice breeze, but it also sways more. The first floor sways less, so if you're worried about motion sickness, I definitely recommend staying on the first floor. I usually get very seasick, so I thought the second floor would feel better, but I was mistaken and felt a bit nauseous. Later, the guide told me that the first floor sways less, and as soon as I went down there, I felt much better and recovered. Being near the door on the first floor also provides a nice breeze.

< Snorkeling >
Snorkeling gear, floatation devices, and fins are provided for free. However, the wetsuit was not mentioned at the time of booking, and you need to pay $10 per person on-site. Most people did not wear one, and I swam without it without any issues.

The sea is very clear, and you can see the coral on the seabed, which is beautiful. There are many fish, but they are not very colorful, with only about four types. This may vary depending on the location and season.

Snorkeling takes place at two spots, and at the second spot, you can also see sea turtles. In April 2018, there was less sunshine than usual, and it was quite cloudy, so the water temperature was pretty cold.

< Meals >
Once on the boat, we have a simple buffet with bread and fruit, which everyone takes for their meal on board. After snorkeling, we eat hamburgers, which are cooked on-site and quite tasty.

< Returning Home >
Take your time on the bus. I recommend changing on the boat to avoid getting wet while riding.

You won't have any problems even if you don't understand English. Even if you're not confident in swimming, there are four types of floatation devices available, so you should be fine. The sea is beautiful, and I think it will make for great memories, so I highly recommend it!

< ピックアップから現地到着まで >
まずどういう服装で出発すればよいか迷いましたが
着替える場所は船内のトイレしかないため、行きは初めから水着を中に着て、上から上着を羽織っていきました。

バスで現地へ到着すると、受付が行われます。
日本語の受付用紙があるため、記入すれば問題ないです。
ここでようやく日本語スタッフと話ができます。

出発前、出発後も基本的に英語で説明がありますが
あとで日本語スタッフから個別に説明があるため
英語がわからない方は聞き流していて問題ないです。

荷物はバスには置かず、全て船内へ持ち込みます。
バウチャー、タオル、シュノーケル後の着替えがあればよいです。

＜船酔い対策 ＞
船は１Fと２Fにわかれた構成です。
２Fの方が風が気持ちいいですが、揺れも大きいです。
１Fの方が揺れが少ないため、船酔いが心配な方は確実に１Fがいいとおもいます。私は普段からものすごく船酔いをするほうなため２Fのほうが気持ちいいと思い行きましたが、当てがはずれて少し気持ち悪くなりました。あとからガイドの方に教えてもらいましたが１Fの方が揺れが小さいらしく１Fに行くとすぐに楽になり復活しました。１Fもドア付近にいると風も吹いて気持ちがよいです。

＜シュノーケリング＞
シュノーケリング、浮き具、足ひれは無料で手渡されます。
ただウェットスーツは申し込み時は記載がなかったのですが、有料でその場で１人１０ドルの支払いが必要です。ただ半分以上の人は着用しておらず、私もなしで泳ぎましたが問題ないです。

肝心の海はとても透明度が高く、海底には珊瑚が見えてとてもきれいです。ただ魚はたくさんいるのですが、色とりどりではなく４種類程度でした。これはポイント、時期によって変わるのかもしれません。

シュノーケリングは２箇所で行われ、２箇所目ではウミガメをみることもできます。２０１８年４月は例年より日差しは出ておらず、曇りがちだったため水温はかなり冷たかったです。

＜食事＞
まず船に乗ると、簡単なビュッフェ形式でパンとフルーツを１人ずつとって船内で食事をとります。
シュノーケリング後は、ハンバーガーを食べます、ハンバーグはその場で焼いているため割とおいしかったです。

＜帰宅＞
バスに乗ってゆっくり。
濡れたまま乗らないように、船内で着替えておくことをお勧めいたします。


英語がわからなくてもまったく問題ないです。
泳ぎに自信がなくても、浮き具が４種類もあるため、まず問題ないです。
海もきれいなため、いい思い出になるとおもいますのでお勧めいたします！

A tour to fully enjoy the nature of Maui. マウイ島の自然を満喫できるツアー

Reviewed by: やこた

It's the best experience! The crew's service, the delicious food, and above all, the beauty of the ocean...!!

The flow of the tour was as follows:

- Early morning pickup in front of the hotel
- Everyone gathered at the dock
(There were about 30 people in total. We were the only Japanese.)
- Breakfast buffet in the order of boarding
(There was plenty of bread, muffins, fruits, etc.)
- Snorkeling at Molokini Island
(The clarity was amazing... we saw various tropical fish, including angelfish.)
- Lunch
(We had burgers. The meat was grilled on the boat, and it smelled great. We could choose from about three types.)
- Snorkeling at a point called Turtle Town
(We were able to swim close to sea turtles. The beauty of the ocean here was also incredible... thanks to the sunlight, the seabed sparkled, and it was breathtakingly beautiful.)
- On the way back to the dock, we enjoyed beer (as much as you want; it's all-you-can-drink.)
- We were driven back to the pickup location and then dispersed.

☆ Advice
- Once on the boat, sit near the entrance indoors. The view from the second floor is beautiful, but it gets really hot.
- Organic sunscreen was provided on the boat, but it turns quite white when applied, so it might be better to bring your own to avoid looking like a clown.
- When there's sunlight, your back and calves can get burned! Make sure to apply and reapply sunscreen.
- Lunch can get quite crowded, so it's best to grab it early. Getting it early will also help with your condition for the next snorkeling session.

I wrote various pieces of advice, all of which I learned from KANA, the crew member who provided Japanese support. I really appreciated her help. I gave a tip to KANA personally when disembarking. She was bright, attentive, and a wonderful person.

We missed it, but it seems that whales could be seen even in April. There were also whale sharks. You can expect more fun than just snorkeling, so if you visit Maui, definitely participate!

最高の一言です。クルーの対応、食事のおいしさ、何より海のきれいさ…！！
ツアーの流れとしては次のようなかんじです。

･早朝ホテル前でピックアップ
･船着場でみんな集合
(全部で30人ほどだったでしょうか。日本人は私たちだけでした。)
・乗船した順に、朝食バイキング
(パン、マフィン、フルーツなど、十分な量でした。)
・モロキニ島でシュノーケリング
(透明度がすばらしかったです…いろんな熱帯魚を見れました。エンゼルフィッシュもいました。)
・昼食
(バーガーでした。お肉は船で焼いてくれて、いい匂いが漂ってました。3種類くらいから選べました。)
・タートルタウンというポイントでシュノーケリング
(ウミガメと至近距離で泳ぐことができました。ここでも海のきれいさがすばらしくて…日差しがあったおかげで海底もキラキラしていて、言葉にならないきれいさでした。)
・船着場までの帰り道はビールを飲みながら(何杯でも。飲み放題です。)
・ピックアップ場所まで車で送ってもらって解散

☆アドバイス
・船に乗船したら屋内で出入口から近い席に座りましょう。船の2階も眺めはきれいですがめっちゃ焼けます。
・オーガニックの日焼け止めが船に用意されていましたが、塗ったらけっこう白くなるので、顔はバカ殿みたいにならないように、自前のものを塗って行った方が良いかもしれません。
・日差しがあると、背中やふくらはぎ等、体の裏側が焼けます！しっかり塗る＆塗り直し必須です。
・昼食はけっこう並ぶので、早めにゲットしちゃいましょう。早めに消化させちゃったほうが次のシュノーケリングへのコンディションとしても良いと思います。

色々アドバイス書きましたが、これ全部、日本語サポートしてくれたクルーのKANAさんから教えてもらったものです。本当にお世話になりました。下船する際にチップをKANAさん個人へお渡ししました。明るくてサポートもきめ細かくて、とってもすてきな方でした。

私たちは見逃しましたが、4月でもクジラが見えたみたいです。ジンベイザメもいたとのこと。単なるシュノーケリング以上の楽しさが期待できるので、マウイ島に行かれた際はぜひ参加してみてください。

The weather was bad, so I couldn't go to Molokini Island, but I was very satisfied with everything else. 天気が悪くモロキニ島に行けなかったがその他は大満足でした。

Reviewed by: ノリノリ

I was concerned about the trip due to the rain in the morning, but I was relieved when the boat safely left the port. Unlike tours from certain companies, there were many international participants, which really enhanced the Hawaiian atmosphere. Due to the weather, we couldn't go to Molokini Island, but we snorkeled at Coral Garden and another location, where the underwater scenery was beautiful, and I lost track of time playing with the fish. The breakfast, lunch, and open bar were all satisfactory, and combined with the staff's attentiveness, I had a great time (I was a bit anxious about using the restroom due to my age, but that was not an issue). This was my third tour with Veltra, following the sandbar and catamaran cruise on Oahu, and I have never been disappointed. I would like to book another tour with Veltra to get my revenge on Molokini Island next time.

朝からの雨で決行自体が気になりましたが、無事船は港を離れひと安心。某社のツアーとは違い、海外の方の参加が多くハワイ気分は盛り上がります。天候の関係でモロキニ島には行けず、コーラルガーデンと他１か所でのシュノーケリングとなりましたが、海の中もとても綺麗で思わず時間を忘れ魚と戯れました。朝食・昼食・オープンバーともに十分な内容で、スタッフの方々の気遣いと併せて、とても楽しむことができました（年齢的にトイレの利用が不安でしたが、その点も問題なしでした）。オアフ島でのサンドバー、カタマランクルーズに続いてのベルトラでのツアーとなりますが、今まで外れはなく、次もベルトラでモロキニ島のリベンジをしたいと思います。

On the day of the trip, the wind was strong, so we couldn't go to Molokini Island. However, instead, we visited two other locations and were able to see turtles.

At the snorkeling spots, the waves were small despite the wind, so there were no issues. The staff members were very friendly, and there was no need to worry even for beginners. Meals were prepared for both breakfast and lunch, and for lunch, we made our own burgers by choosing our own toppings.

I would like to use their services again when I come to Maui.

当日、風が強くモロキニ島へは行くことができませんでした。しかし、代わりに他の場所を二箇所回って頂き、タートルも見ることが出来ました。
シュノーケルスポットでは風の割に波は小さく、問題ありませんでした。スタッフの方々もとても親切で、初心者でも何の心配もありませんでした。食事も朝、昼と準備され、お昼はハンバーガーを自分たちで具を選んで作ります。

Unfavorable weather 天候不順

Reviewed by: 鉄中団 住職

The weather was cloudy, but since it wasn't raining, we set sail hoping for clearer skies. The waves were a bit high on the way to Molokini Island, and I thought there would be some swells when we arrived. My wife was a bit nervous since it was her first time snorkeling, and the swells seemed to heighten her fear.

As we returned to the boat to head to the next point, the ride was quite bumpy, and my wife got completely seasick. We were by the window inside the boat, but even with the window closed, seawater splashed in when the waves hit.

The next point had calmer waves, but we rested on the boat. I appreciate the Japanese tour guide for being attentive to even the smallest details. This will be one of our memories.

天気は曇りでしたが、雨は降っていなかったので、晴れることを期待して、出港、モロキニ島までの少し波が高いかなという程度、モロキニ島に着くとうねりが少しあると思っていましたが、妻は初めてのシュノーケリングだったので、少し緊張気味で、うねりが恐怖を高めたみたいです。
船に戻り次のポイントに向かいますが、かなりの揺れで妻は完全に酔ってしまいました。船内の窓際でしたが、窓が閉まっていても波がかぶると海水が入ってきてしまいます。
次のポイントは、波の穏やかなところでしたが、船で休んでいました。
日本の添乗員さんは、かなり細かいところまで気を使ってもらい感謝です。
これも思い出の一つとします。

For everyone in Japan, this tour is perfect for Molokini Island! 日本のみなさんモロキニ島ならこのツアーですよ！

Reviewed by: 宇宙のよっちゃん

When we arrived at the pier, we signed in at a designated area (there were some materials in Japanese, see photo 1) and enjoyed a cup of coffee. Before boarding the Pride of Maui, we took a commemorative photo (you don't have to buy it for $20). After boarding, breakfast included strawberries, pineapple, bread, cake, and drinks (see photos 2 and 3). The strawberries were huge like Amaou, and the pineapple was sweet. On a tour I took a few years ago, there were only snorkel sets and fins, and I was quite scared in the deep waters of Molokini, so this time I brought a simple life jacket from Japan. On this tour, there were life jackets (see photo 7), of course, a long pole to use under the armpits (see photo 4), a wetsuit (see photo 5), and a belly wrap (see photo 6), so you could participate with just your body. There were also paid options for snuba (see photo 8) and rental underwater cameras (see photo 9).

Lunch consisted of hamburgers, with ketchup on the bread and vegetables on top, and you could choose from the grilled items at the stern of the boat (cheese on top of hamburgers, teriyaki chicken, and large sausages). They recommended the cheeseburger, but I had the chicken burger, which was quite tasty. Those who could still eat were allowed to line up again after everyone finished, and there were about 15 servings left over. If you don't line up for meals at the beginning, the waiting time can be long, but our Japanese guide, Sato-san, kindly took care of various needs for the Japanese guests. Although there were many foreigners on the tour, there was no need to worry; this tour is the best for Molokini. Before returning to the port, we were given a rice cracker. Sato-san (see photo 10) helped my wife when she was struggling while feeding fish in the water. I also received help from a foreign guy who was monitoring on a surfboard; without him, I would have been in double trouble. Since there are paid options, it's good to bring some money, and the only places to put your belongings are under your seat, which can get wet. I think it's better to bring a waterproof bag just in case. We were able to see turtles floating in the sea, and we got quite close to Molokini. However, you need to be careful as the current flows towards Molokini, which could lead to hitting the island or stepping on coral. I rated it as good because we didn't encounter any whales and there weren't small fish like in Hanauma Bay.

桟橋に着くとcheck inと書いてある場所で署名など（日本語で書いてある物もありました、写真１）して、コーヒーを一杯。船はプラウドオブマウイ号乗船前に記念写真（20$買わなくてよい）、乗船後朝食イチゴ・パイナップル・パン・ケーキ・飲み物（写真２・３）イチゴがアマオウみたいに大きくパイナップルは甘かった。数年前に行ったツアーではシュノーケルセットと足ひれしかなくて、かなり深いモロキニ島で怖かったので今回は日本から簡易のライフベストを持参しました。このツアーでは、ライフベスト（写真７）はもちろん脇の下に挟んで使う長い棒（写真４）、スエットスーツ（写真５）、お腹に巻いて使う（写真６）などがあり体一つで参加できました。有料でスヌーバ（写真８）、レンタル水中カメラ（写真９）もありました。昼食はハンバーガー、パンにケチャップなどをかけ、野菜類をのせ、最後には船尾で焼いている具（ハンバーグの上にチーズ、照り焼きチキン、大きいソーセージ）から選びます。おすすめはチーズバーガーだそうですが、私はチキンバーガーにして食べましたが結構おいしかった。まだ食べれる人は全員が終わった後にもう一度並んで作って食べてもよいそうでした、15人ぶんぐらい余ってました。食事は最初に並ばないと待ち時間ばかり長くてなど、日本人ガイドの佐藤さんが親切にいろいろ日本人の世話をしてくれます。外人さんが多いツアーですが何の心配もいりません、モロキニ島ならこのツアーがベストです。港に戻る前に煎餅一枚でました。日本人ガイドの佐藤さん（写真１０）には妻が海の中で餌ずけをして苦しそうにしていた時にも助けていただきました。他にもサーフボードに乗って監視してくれていた外人のお兄さんにも助けてもらいました、私一人では二重遭難になるとこでした。有料のものもあるのでお金を持っていくのと、荷物を置く場所は座るとこか、座る下しかないので濡れます。濡れても大丈夫なビニール袋などを持参したほうがいいと思います。カメは海に浮かんでいるのが見れました、モロキニ島にかなり近くまで寄ってもらえます、海の流れがモロキニ島へ向かって流れているので注意しないと島にぶつかったりサンゴを踏んでしまいます。クジラに出会えなかったのとハナウマ湾みたいに小さな魚がいなかったので、評価をよかったにしました。

Meeting up on-site was nerve-wracking, but when we found the boat at the port, I felt a sense of relief and excitement as if the tour had already begun. A Japanese staff member found our family, and we boarded safely. By the way, we were the only Japanese family there. The female staff member was very kind to us.

Since it was early in the morning, breakfast was included on the boat! There was a generous amount of food available. There were also various drinks. Japanese people tend to be reserved, but it felt like we should confidently go for the food and drinks. We enjoyed a hearty lunch as well. It was delicious.

What impressed me was the sunscreen! It was available in bottles for free use, and it was eco-friendly for the ocean and coral! That's quite rare. The atmosphere on the boat was fantastic, with music playing all the time. It was fun.

Snorkeling was the highlight, as we got to see fish and turtles in the clear water while playing with the kids. Moreover, while free diving, we could actually hear the sound of whales! It was clear! On the way back to the port, we encountered whales due to the season, making it a dream-like day.

現地集合は、ドキドキするけど、港でボートを見つけたりした時の‼️ホッとした感やビンゴ‼️感から、ツアーが始まってる気がする。
日本人スタッフさんが、私達家族を見つけてくれて、無事に乗船。

ボートの雰囲気も最高で、常に音楽がかかってます。楽しいです。
そしてシュノーケルは、透明度の高い水中で魚亀を子供達と見て遊べて最高だった。さらに、素潜りしていたら、なんと‼️クジラの鳴き声が聞こえるんですよ。ハッキリと❗️港までの帰りは、時期的にクジラが出たりで
夢のような一日でした。

モロキニ島シュノーケリングクルーズ ＜朝・昼食付／現地集合＞

snorkeling シュノーケリング

Reviewed by: fish

I participated in early December, but it was very windy that day, so we couldn't go to Molokini Island and instead snorkeled at a nearby spot. I saw fish and had a great time. The guide was very kind, and my father, who is in his 70s, was nervous about snorkeling for the first time but ended up having the most fun. The breakfast and cheeseburgers for lunch on the boat were also very delicious. It's a shame we couldn't make it to Molokini Island, but I really enjoyed it and would like to try again for a rematch at Molokini Island.

12月初めの参加でしたが、とにかくこの日は強風で、モロキニ島までは行けず、近くのシュノーケリングスポットで、シュノーケルをしました。
魚もみれて、楽しかったです。
ガイドさんが、とても親切で、70代の父親も、初シュノーケルでドキドキでしたが、一番楽しんでました。
船の中の、朝食と、ランチのチーズバーガーも、とてもおいしかったです。
モロキニ島まで行けなかったのは残念ですが、とても楽しめましたが、またモロキニ島にリベンジしたいと思います。

モロキニ島シュノーケリングクルーズ ＜朝・昼食付／現地集合＞

I was incredibly moved by the whale's jump! クジラのジャンプに超感動‼

Reviewed by: subtaka

I participated in a tour to Molokini Island because I wanted to see whales and turtles. My husband has been diving all over the world, and he said the visibility at Molokini Island is the best, incredibly clear! We were able to see whales multiple times, and we even witnessed some big jumps! It seems there were turtles in Turtle Town as well... I got a bit seasick, so I couldn't see them, but a couple on their honeymoon showed me pictures. Since I can't speak English, booking a tour with a Japanese guide was definitely the right choice. Even when I was feeling seasick, our Japanese guide, Kana, made a special juice for me and took care of various things, which I really appreciated and was very happy about. Thank you, Kana. I want to join this tour again for a revenge trip!

クジラと亀にあいたくてモロキニ島ツアーに参加しました。主人は、世界のあちこちでダイビングしてますが、モロキニ島の透明度は最高で、半端なくぬけてるそうです❕そして期待してたクジラにも何度も会えて、しかも大ジャンプも見ることができました！タートルタウンではカメもいたそうです。。。私はちょっと船酔いしたので見れなかったけど、ハネムーンで来てたお二人が写真を見せてくれました。英語が話せないので日本語ガイドのツアー予約して大正解でした。船酔いした時も日本人ガイドのかなさんが、特製のショウが入りジュース作ってくれたり諸々気にかけてくださってとてもありがたく、うれしかったです。かなさん…ありがとうございました。リベンジで、またこのツアーに参加したいと思います。

Discover Lanai Day Trip from Maui, Hulopoe Bay Snorkeling & Sweetheart Rock

Great sail to Lanai!

Reviewed by: Debbie

For our last full day in Maui, my husband and I decided to book the 10:30 a.m. Discover Lanai Sail; what a good choice! From the moment we boarded the boat until the end of the day, the Trilogy crew did everything possible to make sure we had an exceptional experience. There were 5 crew for 50 passengers, so one of them was always nearby.

Once we were underway to Lanai, they served beverages, delicious cinnamon rolls and fresh fruit. The humpback whales were very active so the captain did his best to get closer when there was a sighting. As we got close to Lanai, we were surrounded by a school? of spinner dolphins. What fun!

After docking, they took us to the beach — quiet and sandy with restrooms and plenty of shade. Chairs, mats and snorkeling gear were efficiently distributed to get us into the water quickly. There was gentle surf but it was fairly easy to walk in. We’ve snorkeled many places, and this was nice, though not extraordinary. There were many fish, but the variety was limited. Still fun, and crew were very vigilant about keeping everyone safe.

For those who didn’t want to get in the water, (or didn’t stay in very long, like us), there was an island van tour that took about an hour an a quarter. There was no microphone used so I couldn’t hear quite everything, but it was interesting to see Lanai City.

At 3:00 we had a late lunch in Trilogy’s covered pavilion overlooking the dock area. Very pretty there. They served healthy and tasty food — tossed salad, noodle salad, corn on the cob, and BBQ chicken.

On our trip back to Lahaina (4-ish), the crew opened the bar as soon as the boat cleared the harbor for our trip back to Lahaina. Woo-hoo! Whale watching was even better than it had been in the morning. We also saw two baby whale breeches; what a thrill!

Four Winds Deluxe Molokini Snorkel Tour with Breakfast, Taco Bar Lunch & Drinks

Four Winds Molokini Snorkel

Reviewed by: Tim Takach

By far the best snorkel excursion we ever took. Safety was the Captain's first priority and it was greatly appreciated.

The Four Winds offers just about everything possible from small boats for children, life jackets, other floating devices, and under water camera rentals. The crew was awesome.

What to expect? A crew that knows how to have a great time. Don't worry if you forget something because honestly they have everything including wet suits and eco friendly sun screen. On the way to Molokini, we seen a double whale breech which is the best I have seen yet. The captain was very knowledgeable about whales and turtles and was quite funny as he cracked a few jokes along the way. Upon boarding breakfast was served. Later lunch and on the way back a few beers. Great way to end a fabulous day.

I would highly recommend this activity for couples or families. Can't wait to do it again next year.

Discover Lanai Day Trip from Maui, Hulopoe Bay Snorkeling & Sweetheart Rock

Attentive Great Staff!

Reviewed by: Jennie G

The crew made sure everyone's needs/wants were tended to. I felt nauseated when snorkeling and swam back to shore and someone was in the ocean to help, then someone on shore removed my goggles and such, another staff member gave me ideas to "recover", and on the trip back, a different staff member found the best place for me to sit and sip some ginger ale. They engaged our young adult children and were fun loving - entertaining - and educational (about the sharks that were sighted) - plenty of food and drink.
All ages will enjoy this outing.

Discover Lanai Day Trip from Maui, Hulopoe Bay Snorkeling & Sweetheart Rock

Really fun experience. Great for families.

Reviewed by: John Gilchrist

Had a really good time on the trip. The customer service was top notch; every employee was ready to jump to serve the customer. It was a very smooth ride to Lanai accompanied with juice, coffee, cinnamon buns, and breakfast sandwiches. You end on a pretty secluded beach, and while snorkeling the crew was great about being available if you needed help, but otherwise leaving you alone to see the sights. Lunch was grilled chicken and Asian noodles. On the ride back they serve ice cream and then open the bar. We saw whales on both the outgoing trip and the return, and the captain would stop to view them. The only part I thought that was less than stellar was the food quality. While certainly not bad, it just wasn't anything great. Also, the description makes it seem like they serve booze the whole time, but they don't open the bar until about the last hour of the trip. All in all a very fun experience and a great trip for families.

It was a day of complete satisfaction! Swimming with sea turtles and manta rays was truly moving! I even got to see a whale jump unexpectedly! We had a full two hours of snorkeling, delicious breakfast and lunch, and even enjoyed some beer at the end—what a fantastic tour!

Four Winds Afternoon Snorkel Cruise & Turtle Watching Tour with Taco Bar Lunch

I saw a squid!

Reviewed by: Emily

The boat they normally take you on was in dry dock, so we didn't get the glass bottom boat. Also the wind was too strong that day, so we didn't get to go to Molokini. ...Basically we didn't get either of the things that were advertised, but those were uncontrollable elements and not the fault of the business. They took us out north along the coast from Ma'alaea Harbor and stopped at two separate locations. We still saw some tropical fish and some coral, and the water was warm and wonderful. They grill up a delicious burger and hotdogs if you buy the option to eat lunch on the boat, which was only $8 extra per person if memory serves. The ladies on the boat were very friendly and learned everyone's names by heart. They helped with instructions on the flippers and scuba gear. A great time with really nice people. I would definitely do it again!! They advise going on the morning sail if you want a chance to get to Molokini. That's where the real beauty is!

Molokini and Turtle Town Snorkel Cruise with Food & Open Bar - Pride of Maui

First time snorkeling for my Mom and I.

Reviewed by: Cori

We didn't get to either spots listed in the title of the tour due to weather. Maybe, in the future, they can offer a discounted 2nd trip so you can actually get to Molokini Crater. They don't offer that, so you get what you get. The "glass bottom" boat is also a deceiving description of this boat. Don't go based on this alone. The area we went was suitable for a relaxed first time snorkel. Lots of people, but my Mom still got first class treatment due to her fear of the new adventure. Heather ensured she felt comfortable in the gear and went into the water with her to get her comfortable to go off on her own! It was a very good experience, although I would not take a tour like it again. I would opt for something with less people on a smaller boat, for sure. If you choose to purchase the photos at the end, make sure you sought him out to actually take some pictures of you first or you will just have a lot of pictures of other people. The pics he took of my Mom are really good, although there are none of me while snorkeling. But, there were a LOT of people, so how could he possibly get pics of everyone.
All in all the boat was clean, the people were nice, and the snorkeling was really great! The food was pretty good, too.

モロキニ島シュノーケリングクルーズ スヌーバ体験付きプランあり＜英語ガイド／朝・昼食＞

It was a fun time! 楽しい時間になりました！

Reviewed by: usekey

We used this for our honeymoon trip.
As part of the basic tour, we had a snorkeling and snuba experience around Molokini Island.
Honestly, my impression was that there weren't many fish there.

After that, we moved to a spot where we could see sea turtles, and it was mentioned that snorkeling or snuba could be done for an additional fee.
At first, I was a bit disappointed because I thought the price included everything, but in the end, I was able to swim with two sea turtles, and there were also some lucky moments where we saw dolphins and whales from the boat, so it turned out to be a satisfying tour.
The tour instructors were generally cheerful people, so we had a great time.

新婚旅行で利用させていただきました。
基本のツアーとしては、モロキニ島の周辺でのシュノーケル+スヌーバ体験。
ここでは正直そんなに魚はいないなというのが正直な感想でした。

その後で海亀の出るスポットに移動して、追加料金でシュノーケルorスヌーバができるということでした。
最初は全部込みでの値段だと思っていただけにがっかりする気持ちもありましたが、結果としては2匹の海亀と一緒に泳ぐこともできましたし、それ以外にも偶然的な要素はあったかと思いますがイルカやクジラも船の上からですが見ることができたので満足のいくツアーになりました。
基本的にツアーのインストラクターも陽気な人たちだったので、楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。

Molokini Island is amazing!! モロキニ島最高です！！

Reviewed by: kono

I participated in the tour with my 0-year-old and 6-year-old, and while I had some concerns, we drove to the dock with a rental car.

The meeting place was easy to find, and there was a very friendly and approachable Japanese guide, which made me feel at ease when boarding the boat. We brought a stroller, and the staff helped us out, even carrying my child while I was snorkeling, which was very kind and made me happy☆

My 6-year-old had plenty of snorkeling experience, but it was their first time snorkeling in deep water, and they were quite scared. However, they were super excited and enjoyed themselves at the second turtle spot.

The boat also had a slide, and both my husband and 6-year-old were really pumped about it.

I wasn't expecting much from lunch, but the burgers were really delicious. After snorkeling, there was unlimited alcohol! As a heavy drinker, I was quite pleased with this!!

I highly recommend this for both adults and families!

今回0歳、6歳を連れてのツアー参加で不安もありましが、レンタカーにて船着き場へ。

集合場所もわかりやすく、大変気さくで話しやすい日本人ガイドさんもいらっしゃったので安心して乗船。
ベビーカーで行きましたが手伝ってくれたり、シュノーケルしてる間も抱っこしてスタッフの方が面倒を見てくださったり、大変皆さん親切で嬉しかったです☆

6歳児はシュノーケル経験は豊富でしたが、深い海のシュノーケルは初めてで大変怖がっていましたが
二つ目のウミガメスポットから大興奮で楽しんでいました。

船に滑り台もついており、パパと6歳児はかなりテンション上がってました。

ランチも期待してなかったのですがバーガーが大変美味しかったです。
シュノーケル後はお酒も飲み放題！これは酒豪の私としてはかなり嬉しかったです！！

The transparency was wonderful! 透明度が素敵でした！

Reviewed by: ちぃー

As November is approaching, it was a bit chilly, but the water clarity was beautiful, allowing us to see all the way to the bottom! However, it gets cold when you come out, so you'll need dry clothes. There were Japanese staff members who kindly checked on us multiple times to see if we were okay and even took photos for us. Unfortunately, we didn't encounter any sea turtles, but we had a wonderful experience snorkeling for the first time.

もうすぐ11月という事で、少し冷たかったですが、うちの透明度は底まで見れて綺麗でした‼︎ただ、上がった時が寒いので濡れてない服が必要です。
日本人のスタッフもいて、酔っていないか何度も声を掛けてくれたり写真のシャッターを押してくれたりと本当に親切でした。
残念ながら、私たちは海ガメに出会えませんでしたが、初めてのシュノーケリング素敵な経験ができました。

The morning check in was very easy and they had coffee. We brought our own gear but bought wet suits to stay warm. The creator had some different varieties of fish. Turtle Town was my favorite.
