North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

Awesome Shark Adventure

Reviewed by: Sandy

This was an awesome experience. You can't get any closer than this to live sharkes in the oceans. I could have reached out and touch them - but highly discouraged to do so.

This is an awesome experience and a great way to view sharks in thier own natural environment. Very graceful and peaceful to watch.

Hawaii Shark Encounters - North Shore Shark Cage Diving Tour from Haleiwa

One of the best things to do..

Reviewed by: ErikanMichael

this is definitely not for the faint of heart! Although sharks do NOT like to eat humans (as it is commonly believed)! It is very exhilarating to watch them all around you. We would recommend it to anyone looking to have the experience of their lives!

Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls

Awesome Time in North Shore

Reviewed by: Terry

This was our first trip to Hawaii, and we wanted to make sure that we don't miss North Shore, but didn't want to take a typical sightseeing tour on a huge bus with 50 other people. This tour turns out to be a great one with a lot of personal touch. We were able to enjoy a full day on Waimea Bay, just relaxing, snorkeling, swimming, etc. A perfect day on the north shore. We were also able to check out the Haleiwa Town to do some shopping. There are a lot of artists living there to sell their beautiful arts. Highly recommended!

絶景スカイダイビング 一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動!ビデオ&写真撮影付きプランあり by ゴージャンプハワイ<送迎付き>

It was amazing! 最高でした!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

After arriving at the dive point, before I could even say "I'm scared" or "Wait," I was already falling one after another. I was the last one, but after counting to one, two, I found myself screaming "Yay!" while in the air, lol.

It was incredibly scary, but I became excited halfway through. I was screaming, but the force of the air coming in was so strong that I couldn't hear my own voice at all.

The sensation of falling is indescribable. It's the ultimate free-fall experience!

Once the parachute opened, I floated in the sky like a bird, slowly taking in the views of Oahu.

The Earth is truly round, and the ocean is blue—such obvious things were reaffirmed up in the sky.

In the distance, I could even see the humpback whales, a winter phenomenon in Hawaii, swimming around, which was absolutely amazing!

It's scary, but the refreshing feeling afterward is something you won't understand until you try it. Definitely give it a go~~~~!

I was quite indecisive about how to handle the photo shoot until the very end, but it was a bit too expensive... It would be great if it were a little cheaper.

ダイブポイントに到着してからは
怖いーとか待ってーとか言ってるまもなく、
次に次に落ちていきます。
私は最後でしたが、1,2とカウントした後は
気付いたらぎゃーーと叫びながら空にいましたw

むちゃくちゃ怖いけど、
途中から興奮状態になってましたね。
叫ぶんだけど、声を出す勢いより、空気が入ってくる勢いの方がすごくて
全然声が聞こえない。

あの落ちていく感覚は何とも言えません。
究極のフリーフォール体験!

パラシュートが開いてからは鳥のように空を舞いながら、
オアフ島をゆっくり眺める。

地球は本当に丸い
海は青い
なんて当たり前のことなんかを空の上で再確認。

遠くにはハワイの冬の風物詩 ザトウクジラの
泳ぐ姿なんかもみられて、本当に最高でした!

怖いけど終わった後のあの爽快感はやってみないとわかりませぬ。
是非おためしあれ~~~~ !

写真撮影はどうするか最後までかなり迷ったんですが、
ちょっと高すぎました・・・
もうちょっと安くなると良いですね。

Oahu Island Guided Tour, Waimea Waterfall Swim & Dole Pineapple Farm

Definately worth it for firsttimers

Reviewed by: Bryan

Rongo, our driver, was very fun and entertaining. From picking us up to dropping us off he had excellent information to share and plenty of jokes to tell. Even after most people were dropped off and we were the last ones to our hotel, he was giving us little tidbits of information on good eating and fun attractions. This is a trip everyone should see on their first visit to oahu, and the dole plantation is a must.

You should definitely do it. やっとくべき

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I didn't know I could go skydiving in Hawaii, so I forcefully convinced my friend to sign up. I had some doubts until the Cessna took off, but once I jumped, the feeling was something you can't experience on the ground. It was amazing!!! The company promised a jump from 4,000 meters, so I was able to dive with peace of mind. It's also reassuring that there are Japanese staff members!

ハワイでスカイダイビングができるとは知らなかったので、友達を強引に説得して申し込みしました。
セスナが飛ぶまで迷いもしましたが、飛んでみればあの感覚は地上では味わえないものです。
最高!!!
4000Mをお約束してくれる催行会社だったので、安心してダイブできました。
日本人のスタッフもいるのも安心!

FanFreakinTastic!!!

Reviewed by: Len Langevin

This was by far the best adventure I've ever been on and I'd do it again in a heartbeat, which is very different from most touristy things I've done in Hawaii where once is enough.

The crew was great, the sharks were plentiful and the gear provided was excellent. Don't forget to bring your camera because you will want to capture every moment out there. If you don't have an underwater camera, you can buy one from the crew.

All I can say is "oh man!"

Reviewed by: John Simonsen SLC UT

This one of the biggest thrills I have ever experienced, and there has been alot, we have traveled all over the world and this is most definately in the top 5 for us. To have a shark 8-12 feet long inches from your face, let alone 15-20 of them within 20 feet of you is extreme, then add in some good sized swells to add to the excitement, I wouldn't miss it again, ever, a must for anyone who needs a thrill.

Reviewed by: Jose

This adventure delivers on exactly what it offers. If you've seen the shark specials on the discovery channel this will be very similar except for the fact that YOU are up close and personal with the sharks. Bring waterproof camera for great shots. I didn't have one but I brought my live action camera and filmed some great footage from on the boat.

THE BEST!!

Reviewed by: Rob

This experience was the best thing I have ever done in my short time on this earth! Even though I was seasick I still had the time of my life. The captain made sure everything was as safe and controlled. These sharks were not aquarium sharks! These beautiful creatures were enormus, full of spledor and power. I was amazed to see in real life. If or when I return to the island I will do this adventure again. Don't miss the opportunity to get in the cage you only live once, Seize the Day!

It's something you should do at least once. 一度はやるべき。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

If you're going to fall, go bungee jumping.
If you want to fly, try skydiving.

Honestly, I had high expectations for the "1-2 minutes of free fall," but when it comes to diving from above the clouds, it feels too high to really experience the fall. You just spin a few times for a moment after jumping (are you swaying?), and then you play around with the strong winds. Once the parachute opens, you start to understand what it feels like to be a bird, and the refreshing sensation takes over.

The good weather probably helped, but the dedicated Cessna was also incredibly stable. Compared to a commercial airplane moving through the air currents, there was virtually no vertical shaking.

Actually, the day before, I heard from a scuba diving instructor about another company where 5-6 people have had incidents each year, so I felt relieved to have chosen this place.

Both before and after the jump, everyone was really relaxed and willing to take photos, which suited me perfectly.

As a keepsake, I bought a T-shirt that the instructor was wearing, but $18 felt a bit pricey... (well, I guess it's like a tip).

Mr. Tim is a bit cheeky, but he's a really great guy!

落ちるならバンジー。
空を飛ぶならスカイダイビング。

正直、「1~2分の自由落下」の期待は高かったんですが、
雲の上からのダイブとなると高すぎて落ちる実感沸かないし、
飛び降りた瞬間だけ数回転しながら落ちる(揺れてる?)程度で
あとは強風と戯れて、パラシュートが開けば
鳥の気持ちが理解出来るかなってな感じで
爽快感の方が勝る。ってな具合でした。

天気が良かったせいもあるでしょうが
専用セスナも実に安定してますね。
気流の中を進む旅客機に比べれば縦揺れ感覚も皆無でした。

実は前日に何処とは言えませんが
他会社で年間5~6人が○○してる話を
スキューバダイビングのインストラクターから聞いていて
ココにして良かったという安心感があったのも事実です

飛ぶ前も飛んだ後もの~んびりしてて、
気軽に写真に応じてくれるし自分には合ってました

記念にインストラクターも着てるTシャツ買ったんですが、
$18はちっと高い気も・・・(まぁチップの感覚で)

ティム先生はあつかましいけど非常にイイ奴ですよ

Fantastic Experience!!

Reviewed by: Amanda & Allan

This was a great adventure! Being in the cage is extremely rough, and you have to hold on to avoid getting thrown around by the huge waves, but this is a small problem! There must have been at least 15-20 sharks (Galapagos and sandbar sharks) swimming all around, and rubbing on the cage! I would recommend this activity to anyone who can handle a rough ocean. It was one of the best things we did in Hawaii!! Take anti-nausea pills, as the waves are huge, and the boat rocks hard (even for those who don't think they get seasick).

Excellent Oahu activity!

Reviewed by: George

I did this with my 23 year old daughter and we both felt that this was an outstanding activity! The ride was great - some hills, windy trails, spectacular views, just the right length - 90 minutes. The staff was super - Darleena couldn't have been better - so knowledgeable, friendly and patient! The horses were very calm and perfect for this type of ride. We both agree that this is one of the best things we've done on Oahu. We've already recommended Gunstock Ranch to other family members that are planning to visit Hawaii. (I'll send photos later)
