I went to Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii for the water slides. There were more foreign families than Japanese visitors in the park. Sandals are allowed in the park! However, you have to take them off before going down the water slides, so going barefoot is probably the best option (^^) Everyone was barefoot.
All the water slides had a wait time of just under 10 minutes! However, it seemed like there were fewer staff, so not all the water slides were available, and there were set times for them. I think it would be more enjoyable if you check the schedule in advance.
There was also a wave pool! There were plenty of free inflatable rings available, so you could float around♪ The waves seemed to come more frequently and were higher than in Japan. Even when the waves were on, it wasn't too crowded, so we had a great time.
It was really fun, but it was a shame that the weather was cloudy... I think we could have enjoyed it even more if it had been sunny. After a while, we relaxed in the jacuzzi♪ By the way, there was a limit on the number of people in the jacuzzi, so it wasn't crowded!
ウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイへはウォータースライダー目当てで行きました。
園内は日本人よりも外国人の家族連れが多かったです。
園内はサンダルOK!でもウォータースライダー滑る前に脱がなければならないので裸足が一番かと(^^)みんな履いてませんでした。
全部のウォータースライダーが待ち時間10分弱!
ただ、スタッフ数が少ないのかウォータースライダー全てが利用できるわけではなく、時間が決まってました。
最初にスケジュールを把握しておいたほうが楽しめるかと思います。
また波のプールもありました!無料貸し出しの浮き輪がたくさんあるため、これを使ってプカプカ♪
波の出る時間は日本よりも多くまた高かった気がします。
波が出ても人が多くないので楽しめました。
すごく楽しかったけど天気が曇ってたのが残念・・・
晴れてたらもっともっと楽しめたと思います。
途中からはジャグジーでのんびりすごしました♪
ちなみにジャクジーは人数制限あるのでぎゅうぎゅうじゃなっかたです!

If you go to Hawaii, you absolutely have to take this tour! You can enjoy it no matter how many times you go! The staff is kind and entertaining, and you’ll create wonderful memories! You can also eat the famous malasadas from the morning, and I was wondering if I should buy the DVD, but when I watched it at home, I was really glad I did! You get to see photos that you wouldn’t be able to take yourself, so you can enjoy it twice as much. You can also go snorkeling, and if you're lucky, you might see sea turtles and whales, so I really recommend this tour!
ハワイに行ったら絶対にこのツアーはしてます♪
何度行っても楽しめます!
スタッフの方も親切だし、面白いし、すごく良い思い出ができます!
朝から名物のマラサダも食べれるし、またDVDはいらかいかなと思ってましたが、家でみるとやっぱり買って良かったなと思いました♪自分ではなかなか撮れない写真が見れるし、思い返せるので二度楽しめます(^^)
シュノーケリングもできるし、運が良ければウミガメ、クジラも見れるのでこのツアーは本当にオススメです!

It was unfortunate that the weather was bad and a bit chilly. I would have liked more warm water.
Perhaps it was the off-peak season, but the attractions were not operating well. There were many attractions that are not available in Japan, which was great.

After departing by boat, we encountered dolphins almost immediately (around 20 minutes in?), and everyone hurriedly jumped into the sea. We put on floating devices like life jackets and jumped into the water, but it might be a bit tough for those who can't swim.
While battling seasickness from the boat and the waves after entering the water, we swam close to the dolphins several times (for about 30 minutes?), which was very hard, but it was incredibly moving to meet the dolphins in the sea. In my case, I was a bit far away, so unfortunately, I couldn't quite feel like I was swimming with them.
After that, we moved by boat to another spot to see sea turtles. We were able to swim close enough to touch the sea turtles if we reached out, making it a very satisfying tour.
Finally, I wanted to mention some highlights of this tour for those who are unsure about which tour to choose:
- Encountering dolphins and turtles
- Availability of restrooms
- Receiving a group photo for free (two photos via email)
- Being able to rent a wetsuit ($5)
- Having Japanese staff present
- All staff members were enthusiastic and supportive of the participants.
船で出発後、すぐに(20分ぐらい?)イルカと遭遇し、みんなあわてて海へ飛び込みました。
ライフジャケットのような水に浮くものを装着して海の中に飛び込みますが、泳げない人はちょっと厳しいかもしれません。。。
船上での酔いと海に入ってからの波での酔いと戦いながら、イルカの近くまで何度も泳いだので(30分ぐらい?)とてもハードでしたが、イルカと海の中で会えて、とても感動しました。
私の場合は少し距離があったので、残念ながら一緒に泳いだ感覚にはなれませんでしたが。。。
その後、別のポイントまで船で移動しウミガメを見に行きました。
ウミガメとは手を伸ばせば触れるぐらい近くを泳ぐことができ、大満足なツアーでした^^
最後に、このツアーは下記点がよかったです。どのツアーにしようか迷っている方に参考になればと思い記述します。
・イルカ・カメに出会えたこと
・トイレがあること
・集合写真を無料で頂けたこと(メールで2枚)

On the day of our visit, there was a shuttle service to the hotel area, and we arrived at Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii in about 40 minutes. We had to wait for about five minutes since it was still before opening, but because it was a tour, we were able to enter without lining up at the ticket booth. As soon as we entered, we went to the reception to rent a locker, but the lockers were not in the changing room; they were available for either a group or an individual.
Although there were several water slides that we couldn't use, we were able to enjoy the park without waiting in line, and we conquered all the slides by the end of the morning! Compared to water slides in Japan, these were much more thrilling!!!
For lunch, we received lunch tickets as an apology for the slides we couldn't use. The meals were around $10 each and came with drinks, and the portions were so large that we couldn't finish them.
I went this time with my boyfriend, but I think it's highly recommended for friends and family as well. The wave pool has inner tubes and children's life jackets available, and chairs can be rented for free, which is a great help for your wallet.
Since there was also a shuttle service for the return trip, everyone on the bus was sleeping. It was a time when we could relax and then take action once we arrived back at the hotel, so I was very satisfied!
当日はホテル付近までの送迎もあり、40分程でウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイに到着しました。まだ開店前で5分ほど待ちましたが、ツアーなのでチケット売り場には並ばず入園することが出来ました。入園してすぐにロッカーを借りるため受付をするのですが、ロッカーは更衣室にはなく、一組もしくは個人で使う物がありました。
園内のウオータースライダーはいくつか利用できませんでしたが、並ばずに遊ぶことが出来、午前中には全て制覇してしまいました♪
日本のウオータースライダーに比べ、とても迫力があります!!!
ランチは、いくつか利用出来ないスライダーのお詫びとしてランチチケットを頂いていたのですが、1セット10ドル程度のものにドリンクがつき、残してしまうくらいのボリュームです。
今回は彼と行きましたが、友人や家族の方にもとてもおすすめできると思います。波のプールには浮き輪や子ども用のライフジャケットも用意されてますし、いすも無料でレンタルできるので、お財布には助かります。
帰りも送迎が着いているので、バスの中は皆さん眠ってました。
疲れを取って、ホテルに着いたらそこから行動することも出来る時間帯だったので、とても満足させていただきました!

I thought I might not be able to encounter wild dolphins, but I was able to see a large number of them! It was incredibly moving! I am very satisfied to have had such a precious experience! The staff also seemed very dedicated to showing us as many dolphins as possible.
However, I was a bit disappointed with the hamburgers on the boat. The photos on the website show them being grilled on board, but in reality, they just handed out pre-made ones. Well, I guess it's to allow more time for enjoying the ocean, but that was a bit disappointing.
Even so, this optional tour was fantastic! I would love to participate again the next time I visit Oahu!
野生のイルカ、出会えないかもしれないなぁーと思っていましたが、大量に遭遇することが出来ました!!
大感動!このような貴重な体験ができ大満足です!
スタッフの方々も、よりたくさんのイルカを見せようと一生懸命なのが伝わってきました。
ただちょっと残念なのが、船上でのハンバーガー。
HP上での写真では、船上で焼いているのですが実際はすでに出来上がっているモノを配るだけ。
まぁ、海で遊ぶ時間をたくさん儲けるためなのでしょうが、それがちょっと残念でした。
それを差し引いても、このオプショナルツアーは最高! 次回、オアフ島へ行く際はまた参加したいと思います♪

The hotel pick-up was at 6:00, so I rubbed my sleepy eyes and headed to the meeting point. They asked about the hotel location in advance, so they came close to the hotel.
The staff were very kind and high-energy! I was worried about feeling lonely since I was participating alone, but they made an effort to include me, so I didn't feel lonely at all. By the way, there were two other solo participants besides me.
As soon as we set sail, we saw a whale. However, it took a while for the dolphins to appear. Finally, we spotted them and were able to see them up close three times. Since it’s the birthing season, there were baby dolphins too.
During snorkeling, I was able to see turtles, various beautiful fish, and even rays.
On the way back, we saw two whales very close to us again.
It was full of experiences that you can't have in Japan, and I can't wait to brag about it to my family and friends when I get back.
This is definitely a tour you should join!!
Thank you so much to the crew!

It has been a little while, but I participated in a dolphin swimming experience in Hawaii. The bright staff and their efficient service were great. There were a lot of people, and although we discovered a pod of dolphins, we found that entering the water late meant we missed out... That was a bit of a downside. While having a large group can be exciting, I felt that it might be better to have a bit of a limit on the number of participants. However, I would like to try the dolphin academy next time.
ちょっと時間が経ってしまいましたが、発ハワイでイルカと泳ぎたく参加しました。

We got to see dolphins swimming, and we even encountered a whale! I had given up hope since it was still early in the season, so it was a surprise. I was so excited! It must be due to everyone's good deeds. The hamburgers for lunch were also really delicious, and the dance time was fun!

My first trip to Hawaii! After doing some research, I decided to go to Wet 'n' Wild.
Since I wasn't familiar with the area and it seemed difficult to drive a rental car, I joined a plan with transportation included.
I read in reviews that it can be cold on the bus, so I made sure to wear a hoodie. On the morning of the trip, there were various tour buses parked in front of the hotel, which made me a bit anxious about boarding, but it was easy to identify our bus as it was wrapped with Wet 'n' Wild branding.
When we arrived, there weren't many people aside from the passengers on our bus. It might have been because it was a weekday on November 16.
After arriving, we waited for a while until the park opened and then entered. There was a Japanese staff member at the entrance, which made it easy to understand the process. It seemed that bringing in food and drinks was not allowed at all.
First, we lined up to use the lockers. There are small and large lockers, but since we combined our bags for two people, we rented a large one. (Initially, I rented a small one, but it was too small, so I paid the difference and switched to a large one.)
Then, after changing, we headed straight to the slide we were looking forward to! The first one we tried was the Island Racer, but when we slid down and got wet... it was cold!!! The weather that day was cloudy. Without sunlight, the wind felt chilly, and getting wet made it especially cold.
However, since we had come all this way, we decided to enjoy all the slides and took a break for a meal. Since we were just a bit hungry, we ordered garlic fries instead of something like a hamburger. But... they were huge. The portion sizes were unlike anything in Japan, and we ended up feeling full just from that. (In the end, it was quite economical.)
After our meal, the weather still hadn't improved, so we changed about an hour before the bus departure time and focused on taking commemorative photos (laughs).
I thought that if it had been a warmer day, we might have enjoyed it even more. However, I believe every slide was thrilling and worth experiencing at least once. The facilities were clean, and it felt nice to walk barefoot without any unpleasantness. Occasionally, we could see beautiful colored flowers scattered around, which added to the Hawaiian vibe, so overall, it was a great experience.
初ハワイ!ということで、いろいろ調べて、ウエット&ワイルドへ。
土地勘もなく、レンタカーでは難しそうだったので、送迎付きのプランで参加しました。
こちらのレビューを見てバスの中は寒いとのことだったのでしっかりパーカーを着ていきました。
また、当日の朝は、いろんなツアーのバスがホテル前に止まっていたのでちゃんと乗り込めるか不安でしたが、バスはウエットアンドワイルドのラッピングバスだったのでわかりやすかったです。
到着してみると私たちの乗ったバスの乗客以外にはあまり人はいませんでした。11/16で平日だったからかもしれません。
到着後は開園時間までしばらく待ち、入場。
入場の際も、日本人スタッフの方がいてわかりやすかったです。※飲食類は一切持ち込み不可のようでした。
まず、ロッカーを使用するために並びます。
ロッカーは小と大がありますが、私たちは二人の荷物をまとめてきたので大を借りました。(実は初めに小を借りたのですが、小さすぎたため差額を払い、大に変えてもらいました)
そして、着替えていざ、お目当てのスライダーへ!
一つ目は、アイランド・レーサーというスライダーへ行ったのですが、滑り落ちて水に濡れると、、、寒い!!!
この日の天候は曇り。太陽の光がないと風が冷たく水に濡れると特に寒かったのです。
しかし、せっかく来たのでスライダーは一通り楽しみ、食事休憩をとることにしました。
食事といっても小腹がすいていた程度なので、ハンバーガーなどではなくガーリックポテトを頼みました。ですが・・・これもまた大きい。日本にはない規格外のサイズでわたしたちはこれだけでおなかいっぱいになりました。(結果すごく安上がり)
結局食事の後も天気は回復せず寒かったのでバスの集合時間1時間ほど前には着替えて、記念写真を撮ることに専念しました(笑)
きっともっと暖かい日だったらもっと楽しめたのかな?と思いましたが、どのスライダーもとてもスリリングで一度体験する価値はあると思います。
施設もきれいで裸足で歩いていても嫌な感じはなく、時々落ちているきれいな色の花にもハワイを感じれて総合的にはよかったです。

You can have various interesting experiences like canoeing, javelin throwing, and getting a tattoo before the meal and luau show. It was great that two drink tickets were included, and alcohol was generally okay. The meal was neither good nor bad... The fried chicken was tough and really bad. Since the explanations were not in Japanese, I struggled to understand them because I'm not good at English. I think if I understood English, I could have enjoyed the show even more, but I still had a great time even without understanding.
食事とルアウショー前にカヌーややり投げ、タトゥーを書いてもらったりと面白い体験が色々と出来ます。
ドリンク券も2枚ついていてアルコールも大体OKだったのがよかったです。
食事は可もなく不可もなく・・・。フライドチキンは固くてすごくまずかったです。
日本語での説明でないので、英語が苦手な私は聞きとるのに必死でした。
英語が分かればショー自体ももっと盛り上がれるんじゃないかなと思いますが、分からなくても十分楽しめました。

After seeing the dolphins, while moving to a point where we could see sea turtles, we were stopped in the water due to engine trouble. We returned to port safely on the one boat that was functioning. The hula dance lesson, the staff's planned dance on the boat, and the BBQ lunch (which had been cooked on the boat but was cold) were held at a park instead.
It seemed to be an unexpected trouble, but the staff were smiling, kind, and fun, which made me forget that we hardly got to do any snorkeling or experiences like kayak surfing or paddle surfing.
However, what was disappointing was the company's response. Despite the schedule changes due to the boat trouble, the apology was simply a discount on the DVD (which could be purchased by those who wanted it) from 8,000 yen to 3,000 yen. At that moment, everyone was tired from seasickness and agreed to it, but considering that some might not want to purchase it, I found it strange.
It was truly disappointing, especially since all the staff were great. Among the group, I was the only one participating for the second time, and knowing how much fun I had the first time made me feel sorry for my friends who joined me this time. Even though it was an unexpected trouble, I believe such situations could happen again in the future, and I hope they will consider a proper response.
I appreciate the participants and the staff for their efforts. Thank you very much.
イルカを見たあとに、ウミガメのみれるポイントに移動中、
エンジンのトラブルで、海の上で足止め、
二つのうち一つ無事なほうで、帰港しました。
フラダンスレッスン、船上で予定していたスタッフのダンス、BBQランチ(船で焼かれたものを持ってきてあり、冷えてました)は公園で行われました。
予想外のトラブルだったようですが、スタッフの方たちは、笑顔で優しく楽しく、結局シュノーケリングがほとんどできなかったこと、カヤックサーフィンやパドルサーフィンなどの体験もできなかったことを忘れさせてくれる気がしました。
ただ、残念なのが、会社の対応です。船のトラブルで、スケジュールに変更があったにもかかわらず、お詫びが『(希望者のみ購入する)DVD8000円を3000円に割引します』といったものでした。その場では、皆船酔いなどの疲れもあり、了承しましたが、購入しない場合もあることを考えるとおかしいと思います。
スタッフの方たちが、全員よい方だっただけに本当に残念です。グループで参加の中、私だけ二回目参加で、一回目とても楽しかったことを知っていただけに一緒に参加した友人にも申し訳ない気持ちになりました。
予想外のトラブルとはいっても、今後もあり得ることだと思いますし、キチンとした対応を考えていただきたいと思います。

My husband, 7 month old son, and I had a great experience with this activity during snorkeling and snuba. We got lucky, and one of the guest/crew members watched our son (who mostly slept) so we had the opportunity to both go together for the snorkeling and snuba. The catamaran we took was a great ship. The crew was very accommodating, nice, funny, and took care of everyone, including a woman who lost her camera in the water, and when my hubby got a little overwhelmed in the beginning during snuba. The food was okay, but definitely helped after a good amount of time time in the water. I would defintely do it again. The great crew actually made a huge difference too!

I participated with the expectation of meeting dolphins and possibly swimming with them. However, it seems to be a rare case, but I didn't see any dolphins at all, and there weren't many turtles or fish either, which was disappointing. The staff were all very friendly, and the atmosphere was good, but I was really let down that I couldn't see the dolphins, which I was looking forward to the most. It's understandable since it's nature, but...
イルカに会える、しかも一緒に泳げるかもしれない、と、期待して参加しました。ところが、まれなケースみたいですが、全くイルカには会えず、亀や、魚も目立つようには居なかったり、残念でした。

I think it's great that you can visit the west coast of Hawaii, which you wouldn't go to otherwise, on this tour. The staff is full of energy and keeps you entertained. You can eat malasadas, swim with dolphins, see sea turtles, enjoy a simple cheeseburger, go paddle boarding, and even dance a little hula—it's a packed tour.
Swimming while snorkeling and having wild dolphins swim right in front of you is moving and very healing, but it was unfortunate that when I participated, the wind was strong and the sea was a bit murky, and it took time to find the dolphins, so I couldn't go paddle boarding. It's a busy tour because of all the activities, but I recommend it for those who want a fulfilling experience.
このツアーでなかったら行かないハワイの西海岸にいけるのが良いと思います。スタッフも元気いっぱいでたのしませてくれるし、マラサダを食べて、イルカと泳いで、ウミガメも見られて、シンプルですがチーズバーガーも食べられてパドルボートもできてフラダンスもちょっとだけ踊れる盛りだくさんのツアーです。
シュノーケルで泳いでいると野生のイルカが目の前を通り過ぎて行くのは感動でとても癒されますが、参加した時は風が強くて海が少し濁っていたのが残念だったのと、いるかを見つけるのに時間がかかったので、パドルボートが出来なかったのが残念でした。盛りだくさんな分忙しめのツアーですが充実したい方にはオススメです。

This was my third time participating. Unfortunately, I couldn't meet the dolphins for the first time... But I had a great time with the crew and other guests. I participate about once every six months, but I was most disappointed that my favorite crew member, a boy, had left.
今回3回目の参加でした☆
残念ながら初めてイルカと会えず。。。
でもクルーの方たちやほかのお客さんと楽しい時間を過ごせました♪
半年に1回のペースで参加していますがお気に入りのクルーの男の子がやめてしまっていたのが一番残念だったなぁ。。。

This is my third time using ALAN1.
The pick-up was on time, and the guide was Japanese, so I felt安心して利用できます (safe to use).
I would like to use it again next year.

I decided on this tour after reading various experiences. We gathered early in the morning and traveled to the site by bus. The boat was beautiful, and there were drinks and light snacks like cupcakes and yogurt available for us to enjoy at any time. For lunch, there was a light buffet with hamburgers, rice, meat, and potatoes, but I couldn't eat much due to fatigue, seasickness, and drowsiness. I had lunch again separately after returning.
Most of the participants were foreigners, with only a few Japanese. The tour guide was American, but there was one person who spoke fluent Japanese, providing explanations in Japanese after the English ones.
The weather was nice that day, but we had a hard time spotting dolphins and turtles. We stopped for about an hour to enjoy snorkeling. The water was crystal clear and beautiful. It was fun to throw food and have many fish come right up to me. I was considering diving the next day, but snorkeling was enjoyable enough.
After that, we returned to the boat and finally encountered dolphins. About ten dolphins swam near the boat, seemingly playing with us, and they were really cute.
It was early November, and the sea wasn't too cold, but it did get chilly after being in the water for a long time. You can rent a wetsuit for about ten dollars at the port's reception, not through the tour company. They sell snacks, drinks, and port T-shirts and goods, resembling a souvenir corner, but I didn't see anyone buying anything in particular.
As for wallets, you can leave your belongings or towels on the tables or chairs inside the boat, so it's better not to carry cards or large amounts of cash just in case. It was mentioned that you should bring your passport if you plan to drink alcohol, but I wasn't asked to show it. So, it would be good to have about twenty dollars in a pouch just in case, but I ended up not using any cash at all.
Also, after swimming, it gets cold, so a bath towel and a hoodie or T-shirt to wear on top are essential.
Even if you don't usually get seasick, it's a good idea to bring motion sickness medication. The boat isn't that small or shaky, but since we left early in the morning and I hadn't eaten much for breakfast, I did feel a bit nauseous.
After about an hour of snorkeling and sunbathing for a long time, the early morning conditions were surprisingly tiring, and most people were fast asleep on the bus ride back in the afternoon.
体験談を色々読んでこちらに決めました。朝早く集合してバスで現地まで移動。船は綺麗で、室内にはいつでも自由に飲食できる飲み物、カップケーキやヨーグルトなど軽食がありました。昼食も軽いビュッフェ形式のハンバーガー、ご飯、お肉、ポテト、など出ましたが、疲れや酔いと眠気が手伝ってあまり食べれず。帰って別でまた昼食をとりました。
ほとんどの参加者が外国人で、日本人は少しだけ。ツアー催行者の方もアメリカ人ですが、一人日本語がペラペラな方がいて、日本人にも英語の説明の後に日本語で説明してくれます。
この日は天気は良かったのですがなかなかイルカもカメも見つからず、とりあえず停舶して1時間ほどスノーケリングを楽しみました。海の中は透き通ってすごく綺麗。エサを放り投げてたくさんの魚が目の前まで来て楽しかったです。ダイビングを次の日に考えてましたが、スノーケリングで十分楽しめます。
その後、船に戻ってようやくイルカに出会えました。本当にわざとやってるのかと思うほど10頭ほどのイルカが船の近くで一緒に「遊ぼう!遊ぼう!」と泳いで、とてもかわいかったです。
11月始めですが、さほど海は冷たくなかったですが、長いこと入っていると寒くなってきます。ウェットスーツは10ドルかな?でツアー会社ではなく港の受付で借りれます。ここではお菓子、飲み物や港のTシャツやらグッズ等が売っていて、お土産コーナーのようですが、特に何か買ってる人はいなかったです、、。
お財布などは船内のテーブルや椅子の上に荷物やタオルを置いておくかんじなので、カードや大金は念のため持ち歩かないようにしたほうがいいです。お酒を飲む場合のパスポート持参と書かれていましたが特に提示を聞かれませんでした。なので、ポーチに万が一のために20ドルくらい入れていけばいい感じですが、結局一銭も現金は使っていません。
あとは、泳いだ後が寒いのでバスタオルと上に着るパーカーもしくはTシャツは必須です。
あまり乗り物に酔わない人でも酔い止めは持参したほうがいいです。そこまで小型で揺れる船ではないですが、朝早いので朝食をあまりとってなかったりすると酔います。
1時間ほどのスノーケリング、日差しの下で長い間日焼け、朝早いというコンディションは意外に疲れ、昼の帰りのバスはほとんどの人が爆睡してました。午後からアク

If I had to express a complaint, it would be that several people mentioned the rental goggles did not fit well and water was getting in.
Also, please check for wear and tear over time.
Additionally, we couldn't get as close to the dolphins as I expected.
不満をいえば、レンタルのゴーグルのフィット性が悪く、水が入ってくるって言っている方が数人いたようでした。
経年劣化もあるので、チェックおねがいします。
あと、思ったよりもイルカの近くには寄れません。

It was my first time snorkeling and I was a little nervous yet excited. Our first site was really nice and the water was perfect. When we went off to see our second site where the dolphins hang out we were all disappointed to find that there were no dolphins. I really can't blame this on the crew. They did their best but to no avail. I suppose there is some risk involved that we may not see any dolphins since they are wild animals and it is a big ocean. But overall I had a nice time.

First, we went to eat a treat called malasada. It was freshly fried and very delicious. On the bus, they passionately talked about snorkeling precautions and Hawaii in Japanese.
Once we boarded the boat, the lively crew welcomed us, and we had a great time. We were particularly fine with seasickness, but some people felt unwell, so those who are worried might want to bring motion sickness medication. Also, they will take photos for you, but since you'll have to buy them later, if you want to avoid spending money, it might be better to take your own pictures.
When we got out to sea, the weather was fantastic, and we were able to see over 100 dolphins, which was truly moving. It was a wonderful experience to see dolphins right in front of us. We only saw one turtle, but I think it offers a different kind of excitement compared to seeing turtles in an aquarium. I highly recommend this tour.
最初に、マラサダというお菓子を食べに行きました。揚げたてでとてもおいしかったです。バス内では日本語でシュノーケリングの注意事項やハワイについて熱く語ってくれます。
船に乗ると、ノリのいいクルーたちが出迎えてくれてとても楽しく過ごすことができました。私たちはとくに船酔いは大丈夫でしたが、何人かの方が気分が悪くなっていたので心配な方は乗り物酔いの薬を持って行った方がよいかも。また、写真を撮ってくれますが、後で買うことになるのでお金をかけたくない方は、無理してでも自ら写真を撮った方がいいかも。
私たちが海に出た時はとても天気がよくイルカたちにも100頭以上あうことができ感動しました。目の前でイルカを見れるのでとてもいい経験をすることができました。カメは一頭しかみれませんでしたが、水族館で見るカメとは違う感動を味わうことができると思います。お勧めのツアーです。

Staff were very patient when giving individual tuition which was much appreciated as this was my first experience and am in my 60s. Will certainly be snorkelling again.

This is my third time participating.
I was able to see a pod of bottlenose dolphins, which is said to be very rare♪
It seems they are a different species than the ones usually seen.
I swam with them, and a turtle was also swimming nearby.
Then, right in front of me, it popped its head up from the water and showed me its cute face, which was so exciting.
It's something you can't easily do in Japan, so I highly recommend it!
こちらは3度目の参加です。
バンドウイルカの群れが見ることができ、それはとてもとても貴重だとのこと♪
ふだんよく見られるのとは違う種類だそうです。
一緒に泳ぎ、また、亀さんも近くでおよいでました。
すると目の前で水中からポコッと顔をだしてくれかわいい顔をみせてくれたので興奮しました。
日本では、なかなかできないことなのでおすすめです!
