About three years ago, I participated in this tour, and at that time, there were evening departures that felt like a sunset cruise, even if we didn't catch anything. The dock was close to Waikiki, and the captain and staff (his wife?) were efficient, so we didn't have to wait long before setting off. Our group was the only one with Japanese participants. Even though I hardly understood any English, I managed just fine.
We participated as a group of four, and three of us caught a fish called Kawahagi. It seemed like most others didn't catch anything. They provide fishing rods, but it looks like bringing your own is okay; an American boy brought his own rod. My son and I became good rivals, which added to the fun. My 10-year-old son caught three fish and was very pleased when the captain called him the "BEST FISHER." It seemed like his rival caught a bigger fish that wasn't a Kawahagi and was smiling happily.
If the fish were small, they were released. The larger ones were seasoned with flavored salt and grilled for us, but it seemed like those who didn't catch anything were hesitant to eat. Recently, it seems like the number of operating days has decreased, and I hope they don't stop. Although quite some time has passed, I decided to share my experience. This time, if it weren't for COVID-19, I was planning to join this optional tour again, so I feel very disappointed that I have to give up. Next time I go to Hawaii, I will participate again.
3年くらい前に参加したので、そのころは夕方出発があり、釣れなくてもサンセットクルーズみたいでした。船着き場がワイキキに近く、キャプテンやスタッフ(奥さん?)の手際よくて出航まであまり待たずに出発。日本人は私たちのグループだけでした。ほとんど英語がわからなくても何とかなりました。
4人で参加して3人はカワハギがつれました。ほかの方はほとんど釣れてないようでした。
釣り竿は貸してくれますが持ち込みOKのようで、アメリカ人の男の子はMY竿持参でした。息子とは好敵手となりそれもまた楽しめました。
10歳の息子が3匹釣ってキャプテンから「BEST FISHER」と言われご満悦でした。息子のライバル君はカワハギではない大きい魚を釣ったようでにこにこしていました。
釣った魚はサイズが小さいとリリース。大きいものはフレーバーソルトで味付けして焼いてくれましたが釣れなかった方たちは遠慮して食べてなかったみたいでした。
最近、催行日が減ったようで、やめないでほしいなと思い、かなり日が経ちましたが体験談を投稿しました。
今回、新型コロナがなければ、またこのオプショナルツアーに参加しようと思っていたのであきらめざる負えず残念な気持ちでいっぱいです。
次回、ハワイに行ったらまた参加します。

I participated in the 120m event. The staff was great, and it was really fun, especially getting splashed in the sea. I took motion sickness medication, so I was fine, but there were quite a few people around me who were feeling pretty seasick, so I recommend taking something to be in top shape to enjoy it fully.

I participated in the morning session. They picked me up from my hotel, so I didn't have to worry about transportation. We got on the board for about a 10-minute experience. While waiting for others to finish their turns, those who are prone to motion sickness might want to take some anti-nausea medication to enjoy it without worries. There are moments during the experience when you'll be in the water up to your legs or waist, so it's best to wear a swimsuit. On the way back, my swimsuit was still wet, but they drove us back to the hotel, so everyone returned wrapped in towels they brought.
I think it's a good idea to bring cash since you'll need to tip the staff after the experience. Also, for an additional $30, they will take photos during the experience! I saw some couples who mentioned they were on their honeymoon purchasing them.
朝一の時間帯で参加しました。宿泊先のホテルまで迎えに来てくれたので移動の心配も要らなかったです。ボードに乗り、1組10分ほどの体験でした。他の人たちの体験中もボードに乗って待つため、乗り物酔いしやすい人は酔い止めは飲んでおいた方が心置きなく楽しめると思います。体験中海に脚〜腰まで海に浸かるタイミングがあるので水着を着て行きます。帰りも水着が濡れたままでしたが、またホテルまで送ってくれるので皆さん水着に持参したタオルを巻いたまま帰ってました。
体験後にスタッフの人にチップを払うので現金も持っていくといいと思います。

This well-run tour took us to a place known as Turtle Canyon a few hundred meters off of Waikiki where sea turtles come to get cleaned by algae eating fish.
There were a couple of dozen of varying ages (judging by their sizes) and though touching is prohibited, it was easy to get close enough that you could have.
Sharp, amusing crew, well maintained and clean masks, snorkels, and fins provided, and cold local beer.
A great combination.

I took a cruise from Hilton Village for the first time, and it was affordable with great content, so I decided to book it.

I would definitely recommend it to others going there.

I really enjoyed the cruise. Even though the water was a little bumpy, the captain calmly maintained the even-ness of the boat. The crew were very attentive and were consistently checking in with all the passengers how they were doing. I really enjoyed the ability to sit on the "roof" and enjoy the water from higher up.

I made a reservation for 1:00 PM on the day of my arrival in Hawaii. I wanted my family, who are visiting Hawaii for the first time, to get a concrete image of the scale of Waikiki, the location of our hotel, and Diamond Head, so this was a perfect choice to grasp the overall view from the ocean.
Before participating, I read reviews and thought it would be a participatory event with a rap-style BGM playing throughout, which might explain the low number of Japanese participants. However, it was completely different. You can enjoy it at your own pace, so there's no need to worry. The captain did tell jokes in English to the participants at the beginning, but that was just at the start. During the trip, he was very friendly, handling the sales and drinks, and occasionally pointing out, "You can see a turtle over there." I can't even remember if there was any BGM.
In addition to alcohol, there were about five types of soft drinks (canned juices) available for $3 each. I bought the pineapple juice, which was delicious.
As we headed out to sea, we moved against the waves, which caused some up-and-down rocking and heightened the excitement. We went to a position where we could see Diamond Head Lighthouse well, so the distance traveled was relatively long. On the way back to shore, it was almost completely calm, allowing us to enjoy the scenery peacefully.
When disembarking, there was a suggestion to leave a tip in a container if you liked the experience.
Additionally, before boarding, they take a photo of each group with the boat and Diamond Head in the background. At disembarkation, they encourage you to purchase a 2L size photo as a simple album for $20. While purchasing is optional, I think it's better to place your bags and footwear in a spot that won't be in the frame if you're considering buying. We bought it, and it was funny because everyone was holding their sandals up in a "banzai" pose.
Also, the ladder to board the boat is at the front. If you want to get splashed with more water, I recommend the front. On Oahu, you can usually hear Japanese being spoken on various optional tours, but this tour allows you to experience being abroad in a good way, away from Japanese.
ハワイ到着当日の13:00を予約しました。初めてハワイを訪れた家族のためにワイキキの規模感や泊まるホテルの場所、ダイヤモンドヘッドなど具体的にイメージしてもらいたく、沖から全体をつかんでもらうには、これが大当たりでした。
参加する前にこちらのレビューを拝見し、勝手にラップ調のBGMガンガンで終始英語の参加型イベントかな?だから日本人の参加が少ないのかな?など勝手に思っていましたが全然違いました。自分のペースで楽しめるので心配不要です。確かにキャプテンが参加者に英語で、ジョークを話していましたが、最初だけです。途中はセールの操作とドリンク対応、たまに「あの辺にカメが見えるよ」などの案内でとてもフレンドリーでした。BGMもあったかどうか記憶が無いくらいです。
アルコールのほかソフトドリンク(缶ジュース)も1缶$3で5種類くらいありました。最初に聞き取れたパイナップルジュースを購入しましたが、これがまた美味かった。
沖に向かっていくときは波に逆らって進むので上下に揺れ、テンションが上がります。ダイヤモンドヘッド灯台が良く見える位置まで向かったので割と移動距離も長めです。岸に戻る時は、一転ほとんど揺れないので、落ち着いて景色を堪能できます。
下船時に「良かったらそこの入れ物にチップをよろしく」的な話があります。
なお、乗る前に参加グループごとに船とダイヤモンドヘッドをバックに写真を撮ってくれます。下船時に2Lサイズの写真を見開きの簡易アルバムとして$20で購入を勧めてきます。購入は任意ですが、購入を考える方は荷物や履物は写らない場所に置いた方がいいと思います。私どもは購入したのですが、全員サンダルを手に持ってバンザイしているので笑えます。
それから船は乗る時のハシゴがある方が前です。水しぶきを多めに浴びたい方は前がお勧めです。
オアフ島でのオプショナルツアーは、必ずと言っていいほど、どこかしらから日本語が聞こえてきますが、こちらのツアーは良い意味で日本語と離れることができ海外に来たことを実感できます。

It lasted about an hour, but I was able to see the whales jump and spout (multiple times) without any issues!
The announcements were mainly in English, but there were also explanations in Japanese, so there were no problems.
It was the simplest plan without pick-up or breakfast, but the boarding time was also about two hours, which was not a problem. I was able to arrive smoothly from Waikiki using The Bus.
Points to note:
- The waves were quite high, and the boat rocked a lot. Be cautious of seasickness.
- Inside the cabin, the air conditioning was too strong, and outside it was windy and quite cold. A jacket is essential.
- The boat is relatively old and not very clean. There were areas that smelled a bit like garbage, possibly due to the food being served.
1時間程度でしたが、無事、鯨のジャンプと潮吹き(何度も)見ることができました!
基本的には英語のアナウンスですが日本語の解説もあり問題ありません。
送迎なし、朝食ナシの一番シンプルなプランでしたが、乗船時間も2時間程度と短く、特に問題ありません。
ワイキキからもThe Busで滞りなく到着できました。
注意点は・・
・かなり波が高く船はかなり揺れます。船酔い注意。
・船上はキャビン内はクーラーが効きすぎ、外は風が強くかなり冷えます。はおりモノは必須
・船は割と古く、それほどキレイではありません。食事が出るせいもあるか生ごみっぽいにおいがするエリアもあった

I boarded the boat thinking I would be lucky to see even one whale, but I was thrilled to see three whales swimming together and dolphins up close multiple times! I could clearly hear the sound of them blowing water, and it was a wonderful experience of nature. The whale watching was fantastic, but one thing that concerned me was the loud construction noise inside the boat, which made it difficult to hear the naturalist's announcements and music. It would have been even better if there had been consideration for that.
一回でもみれたらラッキーと思いながら乗船しましたが、3匹のくじらが仲良く泳いでいる姿やイルカも近くで何回も見れてとても良かったです!潮を吹く時の音などもはっきり聞こえ、自然を体感できました。ホエールウォッチングとしては素晴らしかったのですが、一つ気になったのは船内での工事の音が大きく、ナチュラリストさんのアナウンスや音楽が聞こえにくかったりしたので、そこの配慮があったらなお良かったです。

We participated as a family of four. For those who couldn't drink alcohol, there were soft drinks available. At first, we were served a drink made with juice and gin (?), and then we could refill our drinks; our family finished a bottle of champagne. Just as we started to feel the effects of the alcohol, the sunset was beautiful, and it felt wonderful. However, the boat rocked quite a bit, so it might be tough for those who get seasick, and food was not allowed, so we were just drinking. On that day, we were the only Japanese people, but everyone was friendly, and we had a great time.

I'm glad I went! The sunset sinking into the ocean in Hawaii was amazing. I didn't plan to drink, but the staff kept making Mai Tais and handed them to me forcefully. (laughs) Among a few Asian couples, including my husband and me, the staff was very energetic and explained everything in English, but everyone was friendly and it felt very cheerful. Other guests were the same. During the cruise, they played music continuously, making it quite lively during the sunset moment. I ended up buying the photo taken before boarding. It was a pretty good picture with the boat and Diamond Head in the background.

I participated with my mother in her 60s. On the day of the event, it was quite windy. I had experienced parasailing a few times before, and there were moments that felt like the brief lift you get on a roller coaster. I think on a calm day, it would just feel like floating peacefully.
I have a fear of heights, but parasailing doesn’t scare me. It is high up, but strangely, when you see the ocean below, you hardly feel the height, and more than that, the sensation of the sky, sea, and wind is just wonderful.
I tend to get seasick, but both my mother and I were fine. My mother, who was a bit scared, did scream a little when we were swept by the wind, but in the end, she said it was worth it and felt great!
For those who are hesitant and feeling a bit scared, I really encourage you to try it! The feeling of being close to the sky is amazing.

Whales don't come out of the water with a big splash like in the anime. You might see a tail fin like in the pictures on the site, but in reality, it's smaller and not very impressive. However, I think kids will enjoy it, and being on the boat feels nice, so it's worth going at least once. I recommend it over the sandbar.
クジラってアニメみたいに、ザブーーーンと海面からは出てこないんです。サイトの写真にあるような尾びれは出ますが、実物は小さく迫力はないです。でもお子さまは喜ぶとは思うし、船は気持ちいいので、1回は行っても損はしない。サンドバーより、おすすめ。

I appreciated the audio guidance in Japanese available on the shuttle bus and inside the cruise ship. Unfortunately, the real-time announcements regarding whale sightings and the sea conditions that day (explanations from the captain and guides) were difficult to understand without knowledge of English.
During the whale watching, we moved to the deck where we could watch the whales in sync with the surrounding movements. Thanks to the three-story large ship, the deck and interior were windy and choppy, but it didn't sway as much as I expected. When a whale surfaced and spouted water, there was a cheer, and everyone got excited beyond words. It was truly moving to see a whale up close.
I think even someone like me, who only understands a bit of English, can manage just fine. It was a very enjoyable experience.
行きの送迎バスの中やクルーズ船内でも一通りの音声ガイダンス日本語案内があり、ありがたかったです。
残念なのは、鯨の出没の際の説明や当日の海の状態などリアルタイムの案内(船長とガイドの説明)は、英語が理解できないと何を言っているのかよくわかりませんでした。
鯨ウォッチングのタイミングの時は周りの動きに合わせて鯨ウォッチングできるデッキに移動しました。
デッキや船内は3階建ての大型船のおかげで風が強く波立っていましたが思ったより揺れませんでした。
鯨が潮を吹きながら頭を出した際は歓声が上がり、言葉を超えてみんなで盛り上がりました。鯨を目の当たりにできたのはとても感動です。
私のように片言英語しかわからない状態でもなんとか大丈夫だと思います。

We were blessed with clear weather and boarded the boat with the guarantee of seeing whales, but all we caught a glimpse of was a faint black object in the distance, and we couldn't tell if it was a whale or not... However, we did encounter a pod of dolphins! It seems that we still get to say we "saw" something. Since it's nature, it can't be helped, but I recommend participating with the mindset of "it would be lucky if we see something" rather than having too high expectations.
晴天に恵まれ、クジラが見られる保証付きということで期待して乗船しましたが、遠くの方に微かに黒い物体がチラッと見えただけでクジラかどうかも分からず…その代わりにイルカの群れに遭遇することはできましたが!
それでも一応は「見えた」という扱いになってしまうようです。自然のことなので仕方ないですが、期待し過ぎず「見えたらラッキー」くらいの気持ちで参加することをお勧めします。
Thank you very much for boarding with us this time. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you aboard again when you visit Hawaii.
この度はご乗船頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご乗船頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。

If you plan to drink alcohol at the reception area, you will need to show your passport and get a stamp on the back of your hand. You will need to show this stamp when ordering alcohol on board. You will wait for about 15 minutes before boarding. After that, a group photo will be taken in front of the ship. (After the cruise, when you disembark, they will ask you in English if you would like to buy the developed photo for $20, so you can purchase it there if you're interested.)
Once on board, all announcements will be made in English. I don't understand the content, but the sunset is beautiful, and the people around are cheerful, which makes it enjoyable just to watch. For those who cannot drink alcohol, soft drinks like pineapple juice are available, so there's no need to worry. There are no snacks, but towards the end, a small bag of potato chips will be passed around for each person. If you're worried about getting seasick, it might be a good idea to have a little something to eat before boarding.
Lastly, there is a restroom on the ship (in the lower deck), but it is a bit unclean for Japanese standards. When I went in, there was no toilet paper, so it's a good idea to bring tissues just in case. It's best to use the restroom before boarding! However, if you can't hold it and need to use the restroom, you can ask a female instructor for directions.
受付の場所で、お酒を飲む予定の方はパスポートを提示して、手の甲あたりにスタンプを押してもらいます。そのスタンプ船上でお酒を注文する際に見せて注文するようでした。
乗船するまでは約15分程度待ちます。
そのあと船の前で人グループずつ写真を撮られます。(クルーズ終了後、船を降りる際に現像した写真を手に、20ドルで買いませんか?と英語で尋ねてきますので、欲しいな方はそこで購入できます。)
そして乗船し、終始英語で案内があります。
内容は分かりませんが、夕焼けは綺麗だし、周りの方々は陽気で見ているだけで楽しい気分にはなれます。
お酒が飲めない方もパイナップルジュースなどのソフトドリンクは用意されているので安心です。
軽食などはありませんが、最後らへんに小袋のポテトチップスなどが一人一袋回ってきます。
悪酔いしないように心配な方は少しお腹を満たしてから乗ったほうがいいかと思います。
最後に、船の中(船底)にトイレはありますが、日本人にはちょっと耐えがたい汚さです。また、私が入った際にはトイレットペーパーが無かったので、念のためティッシュは持っていったほうがいいかと思います。
トイレは乗船前にあらかじめ済ませたほうがいいです!でも我慢できずトイレを利用する際には女性のインストラクター?の方に声をかけると場所を教えてくださいます。

When we experienced it, everyone around us was a foreigner. Therefore, I couldn't understand the conversations at all and couldn't communicate much with those around me, but the journey on the boat was very refreshing with good weather. However, it was very bumpy, so motion sickness medication is a must.
As for the parasailing itself, we gradually went up to 150 meters above the ground, and it was very scary as we swayed with every gust of wind. But the view was incredibly beautiful and it was a lot of fun!
私たちが体験した際には、周りは全員外国人の方々でした。そのため会話の内容は全くわからず周りとコミュニケーションはあまり取れませんでしたが、船での道中は天気も良くとても爽快でした。ただ、非常に揺れるので酔い止めは必須です。
パラセイリング自体は、150m上空まで徐々に上がっていき、風が吹くたび揺れて非常に怖かったです。
でも景色がとっても綺麗で楽しかったです!

I was worried about whether we could fly due to the strong winds in the days leading up to it, but the weather was great on the day, and we were able to fly safely. My husband and our 6-year-old daughter participated, and they happily talked about wanting to do it again next time! It seemed that 150 meters was quite high, and 90 meters would have been enough. Thank you!
連日の強風で飛べるか不安でしたが、当日はお天気もよく無事に飛べました。
主人と6歳の娘が参加しましたが、また次回もやりたい!と嬉しそうに話してくれました!
150メートルは高かったみたいで、90メートルでも十分だったようです。
ありがとうございました!
