On spur of the moment my wife and I decided to take the ferry to Lanai then rent a Jeep to go exploring. The cost was reasonable and it was a spectacular day. We caught the 6:45 morning ferry. The Jeep was waiting for us in the parking lot. We headed out not really sure what to expect. We ran into Mikee as we were driving up the hill towards Lahaina City. Mikee is the guy we rented the Jeep from He gave us some tips on what to expect and where we should go. His suggestions were bang on. We had a leisurely day exploring the island; so many amazing sights that will take your breath away! We planned to take the 6:45 return ferry that day. It gave us some leisure time after we were done exploring. The return on the ferry was a bit rough but the boat handles it easily.

We have been on other dinner cruises but this one was by far the best. I was very sceptical about doing another dinner cruise but friends we came with wanted to. The las one we went on was very hot and impersonal. This one was very different. We picked it because it was a sail and it was a smalll group and it was wonderful. The food, the crew and everything about it was great. It wasn’t hot even though we were sun side on the sail out. There was a breeze and we were able to move about the boat. The food was really good. Captain Emily was funny and experienced and we chatted with the other small group of guests. We had a good time and I would do it again.

Overall the trip was what was expected however I feel like there should be more time allowed to snorkel. You arrive to the dock and get on the boat. They have a small muffin style breakfast available. - The drive to the spot is about an hour, you get maybe an hour to snorkel and eat, then you head back which is about an hour. I wish we would have more time to snorkel and relax. It feels very rushed, rightfully so maybe, but for the money you figured you would have a little more time to just be and relax. The lunch is nice and plentiful. The equipment is fine enough and they give you options to purchase a top half wet suit, for cash only so bring some if you want to do that. You can also rent camera's if you would like. There was someone there who took professional style pictures so that was a nice bonus. Of course they cost but not as much as I figured. - The crew knows their information and is fun with their jokes and fun on the boat. The glass bottom is only open when you stop to snorkel and between snorkeling and eating I forgot to look and when I remembered we were leaving and it was closed. You have only a small amount of space to snorkel at once you're at the crater. It's very packed full of people and other boats so it's not really a relaxed snorkel. It feels crowded and time is limited. For our first experience it was a good time but we just which we had more time. This excursion doesn't go to the turtle part either. We picked it for the glass bottom over the turtle snorkeling and we wish we wouldn't have done that.

The time spent at each location was short and felt insufficient. I thought the name "Maui Island Highlights" might not be appropriate. There wasn't enough time to stroll around the town of Makawao, and after lunch, I could only manage to hurriedly buy coffee. We disbanded at the meeting place by 2 PM. I think it would have been better to have a bit more time to look around. Just when I was feeling that the experience wasn't worth the price, the guide asked for a tip, which was even more disappointing.
各所滞在時間も短く物足りなかった。
マウイ島ハイライトとう名称は当てはまらないのではないかと思った。
マカワオの街も散策するほど時間がなく昼食後急いでコーヒーを買うのが精一杯

The weather was great, perfect for snorkeling. Kanako, the Japanese staff member, started with a thorough boarding announcement during the reception meeting and also informed us about the best seating positions on the boat, allowing us to have a comfortable experience. Throughout the boat ride, all announcements were in English, but she provided explanations in Japanese and took care of participants who felt seasick, showing exceptional attention to detail. I was able to enjoy the tour with peace of mind. Although I didn't see as many fish while snorkeling as I had hoped, I would like to join this tour again when I come back to Maui. Thank you very much.

I participated in a snorkeling tour to Molokini Island. I requested a pickup, but a taxi came, and the driver didn't get out, so I didn't realize it was the pickup for the group tour, which caused a few minutes of delay. Fortunately, the hotel bellman was considerate and helped me get on the ride. The tour registration was in English only, but there was a Japanese staff member on board who kindly explained everything. We arrived at Molokini Island in an hour. The weather was nice, and the sea was beautiful, but there were fewer fish than I expected, so it wasn't as exciting as I had hoped. The one-hour snorkeling felt a bit long, and we got out early. I heard from the staff that the water temperature was somewhat low, so renting a wetsuit (just the top) for $10 was a good decision. Without it, I think we would have been very cold. We had lunch while moving to the next spot, Wailea Point. The visibility here is not as good as Molokini Island, but it's a spot where you can see turtles. At the place the staff pointed out, we were able to see three turtles up close, which was quite fun. Overall, I think it was worth going, but it might be better not to expect too much in terms of swimming with cute fish. Also, the boat does rock quite a bit. Since you can't land on the island, you are either in the water or on the boat, so it's best to take motion sickness medication as early as possible.
モロキニ島シュノーケルツアーに参加しました。送迎を頼んだのですが、迎えにきたのがタクシーで、運転手さんも降りてこなかったし、まさかそれがグループツアーの迎えとは思わず、数分ロス。ホテルのベルマンが気を利かせてくれたので、無事に乗車できました。ツアーの受付は英語のみでしたが、乗船スタッフに日本の方がいらして、丁寧に説明して下さいました。1時間でモロキニ島に到着。お天気はよく、海も綺麗でしたが、思ったよりも魚が少なく、わー!という感じにはなりませんでした。1時間のシュノーケルはちょっと長く感じ、我々は早めに上がりました。スタッフの方に水温はそこそこ低いと聞いたので、10ドル出して借りたウエットスーツ(上着のみ)は正解でした。それが無ければ我々は寒くて仕方無かったと思います。昼食を食べながら移動し、次はワイレアポイント。こちらは透明度はモロキニ島に劣りますが、亀が見られるポイントで、スタッフの方が教えてくれたところで、三匹の亀を近くで見ることができました。これは結構楽しかったです。総じて行く価値はあったかと思いますが、あまり可愛い魚と泳げる!と期待し過ぎない方が良いかもしれません。また、結構船は揺れます。島には上陸できないので、海の中にいるか、船に居るかなので、酔い止め薬は出来るだけ事前に飲んだ方が良いと思います。

Unfortunately, we couldn't go snorkeling at Molokini this year due to the strong winds, but thanks to our attentive guide (a Japanese woman named Takako), we had a wonderful time. Her kindness was not pushy, and her quick and detailed movements were a pleasure to watch! Just seeing her in action made the boat trip worthwhile.
The space on the boat, even just enjoying burgers and spending time there, felt blissful. I think we will be relying on your services again next year. Thank you very much!

On the morning of the day, it was unfortunate that we couldn't go to Molokini Island due to strong winds. However, at one of the two snorkeling spots, I was able to swim with sea turtles, which was very satisfying. The hamburger for lunch after the first snorkeling session was one of the best I've ever had, perhaps because I was tired after coming out of the sea. Additionally, after the second snorkeling session, there was an all-you-can-drink service for beer and Mai Tais, which was also fantastic. It became a wonderful memory of Maui. Thank you very much!
当日の朝、風が強いとのことでモロキニ島には行けなかったのが残念でした。ただ、2か所でシュノーケリングしたうちの1か所では、ウミガメと泳ぐこともでき、とても満足できるものでした。1本目のスノーケリング後のランチのハンバーガーは、疲れて海から上がった後だったからか、これまで食べたなかでも最高ランクの美味しさでした。また、2本目のスノーケリングの後には、飲み放題のビール、マイタイ等のサービスもあり、これも最高でした。とても良いマウイでの思い出になりました。どうもありがとうございました!

During my solo trip to Maui, I participated in a snorkeling tour to Molokini Island. A taxi arranged by the tour picked me up from my condominium. When I arrived at the meeting point, a Japanese guide welcomed me. There are people working here as Japanese guides, as well as those handling tour operations and assisting Japanese guests. The guide dedicated to Japanese tourists was with us almost the entire time during the tour. On the day I participated, both guides were present, and since there were only five of us Japanese guests (two couples and myself), the guide was always nearby, providing tips on the best seating positions on the boat and the timing for meals (if we didn't go right away, we would have to wait in line and wouldn't be able to relax). However, I was lucky because this guide only works twice a week.
There were two snorkeling spots: Molokini Island and Wailea (I'm a bit fuzzy on this one...). At Molokini, we enjoyed the clarity of the water, and at Wailea, we enjoyed the fish. We even encountered sea turtles at Wailea! I got so caught up swimming with them that I drifted too far from the boat, making it difficult to return. I hope others will be careful and enjoy themselves (laughs).
Since Japanese is not spoken in Maui, having a Japanese guide was very significant and reassuring. I was filled with anxiety as it was my first solo trip and my first time in Maui, but when I shared my concerns, the guide told me to contact them if I needed anything after the tour, which made me feel very supported during my stay. I am very grateful to this guide.
The scenery, the beauty of the ocean, and the atmosphere of the staff were all wonderful, so I definitely want to participate again when I visit Maui next time.
ひとり旅でマウイを訪れた際にモロキニ島シュノーケルツアーに参加しました。
コンドミニアムまでの送迎はツアーで手配されたタクシーがピックアップしに来てくれました。
集合場所に着くと、日本語ガイドさんが迎えてくれました。
こちらには日本語ガイドとして働いている方と、ツアー運営(ツアー中の諸々の作業)と日本人対応をする方がいるそうです。
日本語ガイドとしての方は、ツアー中はほぼ日本人観光客につきっきりで対応してくれます。
私が参加した日は両名ともいらして、なおかつ日本人はご夫婦二組と私の5人しかいなかったので、ガイドさんは常に近くにいてくれて、船の席のベストポジションや食事のタイミング(すぐ行かないと並んでしまってゆっくりできないので)など色々教えてくださいました。
ただし、このガイドさんは週2回の勤務なのだそうで、ラッキーでした。
シュノーケルスポットは二箇所。モロキニ島とワイレア(ちょっとうろ覚え…)。
モロキニ島は透明度を楽しみ、ワイレアでは魚を楽しむという感じ。
そしてワイレアではウミガメにも会えました!
夢中になって一緒に泳いでいたら船から離れすぎてしまったので、戻るのが大変でした。。
そこは気をつけて楽しんでいただきたいです(笑)
マウイ島だと日本語が通じないので、日本語ガイドさんの存在はとても大きく、安心できます。
私は初めてのひとり旅、初めてのマウイ島で不安いっぱいだったのですが、それをお話しするとツアー後も何かあれば連絡して〜と仰ってくださり、とても心強く滞在することができました。
このガイドさんには感謝でいっぱいです☆
景色も海の美しさもスタッフさんの雰囲気も、全て素晴らしかったので、またマウイに行った際には是非参加したいと思っています。

Unfortunately the day we went it was raining, very cloudy and very windy at the top so no sunrise. It is the risk you take when you book the trip. The guides were good to hang around hoping for some sun to come out. The breakfast was pretty good but could have been a little better organized. Overall, an ok day but nothing you can do about the weather. The company was nice to offer pants and jackets to everyone so it kept our clothes dry and us warm at the top, a nice feature I didn't realize we were getting.

I participated with my wife and our two elementary school children. We visited two snorkeling spots with abundant coral and high visibility, where we saw many tropical fish and even sea turtles. The kids were very excited, and I think it became a memorable part of our trip.
The Japanese staff kindly taught us the procedures and how to use the equipment, and they also recommended spots in the water and informed us when we spotted sea turtles, allowing us to have a safe and fulfilling time.
The hamburgers we ate on the boat, along with the beer, cookies, and coffee during our return trip after snorkeling, were all fantastic and highly recommended under the refreshing blue sky of Maui!
It was unfortunate that we couldn't go to Molokini Island due to strong winds, but as mentioned, we saw plenty of fish and sea turtles, which adds to the excitement for next time.

The local tour with an English guide (including myself, there were three Japanese passengers and about ten foreign passengers) was well explained, and as a one-day tour, it was good. Unfortunately, the view from the visitor center near the summit was completely obscured by fog, which was disappointing, but later at the second viewpoint, I was relieved to see the entire crater beautifully. I was moved by the majestic views, including the scenery along the way. I’m not sure if we passed through the town of Paia as scheduled (I don’t think it was a particular issue), but the towns of Makawao and Iao Valley were also nice. Initially, it was stated that drop-offs were not allowed except at the pickup hotel, but after the Iao Valley tour, we split into a shuttle bus heading to Kahului and a bus going to Lahaina, so I was able to be dropped off at my desired destination of Lahaina, which was very helpful. Thank you very much.
英語ガイドの現地ツアー(乗客のうち私を含めて3人が日本人で、残り10数名は外国人)で、私の語学力ではドライバー兼ガイドの説明がその2割程度も聞けたかどうかわかりませんが、よく説明されており、1日ツアーとして良かったです。残念ながら、頂上近くのビジター・センターからの眺めは霧で全く見えず、これで終わりかとガッカリしましたが、その後、少し下がった第2展望台ではクレーター全体がきれいに見れてホッとしました。途中の景色も含めて、雄大な眺めに感動しました。予定にあったパイアの街 を通ったかどうかは不明でした(特に問題とは思っていません)が、マカワオの街、イアオ渓谷も良かったです。
当初、迎えのホテル以外への送りは不可とされていましたが、イアオ渓谷観光後にカフルイ方面へのシャトルバスとラハイナ方面への本バス移動に分かれたため、目的のラハイナまで乗せていただき、これも助かりました。

I was recommended this show by the taxi driver I took from the airport and made a reservation. The tables are shared, and everyone chats in a friendly atmosphere.
Not only does it feature relaxed Hawaiian hula dancing, but it also showcases various Polynesian dances from Tahiti, Samoa, and more. There are several interactive performances as well (like children dancing on stage together), making it a show that families, couples, and people of all ages can enjoy together.
One thing to note is that there are many moments where English proficiency is helpful. This includes communication at shared tables and understanding explanations, such as going to the buffet to get food for your table; if you don't catch it well, you might find yourself confused.

Unfortunately, on the day of the tour, the heavy clouds lingered. I was worried about how it would turn out, but the underwater scenery was incredibly beautiful, enough to blow away the gray skies! I was able to swim leisurely with the sea turtles, creating great memories.
I want to thank Kana from the crew for all her help. It was really fun to hear various stories during our travels. Thank you very much!

I continued to persuade my wife, who cannot swim, to join a snorkeling whale shark tour in Cebu last year, saying, "You can float!" This year, we challenged ourselves with snuba. My wife kept saying, "I'm so nervous! My heart is racing!" even before we left the hotel in the morning.
After about an hour of being rocked by the waves while having breakfast on the catamaran, we arrived at Lanai Island. As for my wife, she kept putting her face in the water and saying, "Buhh!" and then "Pahhh!" After 10 minutes of floating, she couldn't dive. However, thanks to Todd, our snuba instructor, who encouraged her with "You can! Believe me!" she finally went underwater.
She was deeply moved by being able to breathe underwater and, when it was over, she exclaimed, "Ahh, that felt so good! Why haven't I done this before?!" just like she said after last year's whale shark tour.
After snorkeling, those who wanted to could join a short tour of the island. Then we enjoyed a barbecue before heading back to the boat. The return trip had higher waves due to the wind. The catamaran stopped its engine and began sailing. I thought about getting tipsy on beer before getting seasick, so I enjoyed a Hawaiian beer. By the way, alcohol is all-you-can-drink.
The crew's hospitality in trying to entertain the participants was wonderful. We had a great time from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. I think the cost performance is excellent.

The morning pickup was delayed beyond the scheduled time, and since the van was over capacity, we were told to wait for a taxi, which made me very anxious. The taxi was arranged by the tour company, but it arrived more than 30 minutes after the meeting time. However, we made it in time for the ship's departure.
We were fortunate with the weather, so during snorkeling at Molokini Island, we could see all the way to the bottom. The second planned spot, Keawalai, was changed due to poor weather, but we were still able to see two turtles there.
After snorkeling, they provided us with beer and other alcoholic beverages. We enjoyed those while returning to the port.
Even with many clouds, you can still get sunburned while swimming, so don't forget sunscreen for your back! The water temperature isn't very high, so I think it's better to have a wetsuit or something similar.
On the way back, you'll get on the van immediately after getting off the boat, so if you want to change, it's better to do so in the boat's restroom.
朝のピックアップが予定より遅い到着だったうえにバンが定員オーバーだからタクシー待つように言われ、とても不安でした。タクシーはツアー会社が手配してくれましたがタクシーがきたのは集合時間から30分以上経ってからでした。船の出発には間に合いました。
お天気には恵まれたのでモロキニ島でのシュノーケリングでは底の方まで見ることができました。
2箇所目に予定されていたケアワライは天候がよくないということで別のポイントになりましたが、そちらでも2匹のタートルをみることができました。
シュノーケリングが終わるとビールなどのアルコールを提供してくれます。それをいただきながら港に戻りました。
雲が多くても泳いでいる間に日に焼けするので背中への日焼け止めも忘れずに!
水温はそれほど高くないのでウエットなどがあった方がいいと思います。
帰りは船から降りたらすぐにバンに乗るので着替えたい方は船のトイレで済ませた方がよいです。

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。

I zip lined with this company 10 years ago with my husband for the first time. This time I had my son with me and this was his first time! This company is not only professional, but friendly. They make sure that you understand how you need to zip a cross to the other side before you actually do it. They put you at ease with reassuring words of encouragement that everything will be alright and that the zip lines are safe, reliable and will hold your weight.
Both times the guides were awesome and humorous, making sure that you were having a great time. They would even throw in a little history of the area at each zip line to make it educational. I would highly recommend this zip lining company. You will want to do this all over again! Thank you Matthew and Sean for making this adventure exciting for my son and for me also! You guys rock!
Mahalo! Thank you for your return business. We strive to make your experience a memorable one and our guides are always adding that extra fun!

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。

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‼︎

< 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!
