Since I was in Hawaii, I thought I should try some water sports, so I participated. I actually wanted to go on a banana boat, but choosing parasailing turned out to be a great decision. Our family of four, including my husband, our third grader, and our kindergartner, tried it for the first time. On the day of the activity, there were three foreign couples, making a total of ten people on the boat. We enjoyed a bit of boat sailing before heading out to sea. I wanted to fly at the front so that my younger child wouldn't say they didn't want to go, but unfortunately, we ended up on the last flight. However, those worries quickly faded away. In fact, watching others fly got everyone excited. In the end, the two adults flew side by side while the two kids were positioned in front of us, and our family of four became like birds. From the sky, we had a panoramic view of the Waikiki hotels and Diamond Head, chatting about which hotel we were staying at and whether Hanauma Bay, where we went yesterday, was over there. There was no sense of fear at all. We didn't get wet during takeoff or landing, making it a tour that even a five-year-old can participate in comfortably. I highly recommend it. Next time I go to Hawaii, I definitely want to experience a more advanced flight.
せっかくハワイにきたのだから何かマリンスポーツをと思い参加。ほんとはバナナボートがやりたかったのですが、パラセイリングを選んで大正解でした。夫婦と小3と年中の兄弟家族4人で初挑戦。当日は外国人カップル3組と計10人で乗船。沖に出るまでもちょっとしたボートセイリングが楽しめました。下の子がやりたくないと言わないようにトップで飛びたかったのですが、不幸にもラストフライト。でもそんな心配はどこへやら。逆に他の人が飛んでいるのを見て気分も最高潮。結局夫婦2人が横並び子供2人が私たちの前に重なる形で家族4人で鳥になりました。空からワイキキのホテル群、ダイヤモンドヘッドが一望でき、あれが泊まっているホテルだねとか、昨日行ったハナウマベイはあのあたりかななど、お話する余裕もあり、恐怖感などまったくありませんでした。飛び立つときも着地の時も全く水にはぬれず5歳児でも十分参加できるツアーでかなりおすすめです。是非今度ハワイに行った際はもっと高度なフライトを体験したいです。

We participated as a family of four. It was fast! Beautiful! Fun!! I regret not wearing a swimsuit since we got quite wet... My son was completely drenched, but he didn't seem to care at all and looked like he was having a great time! The view of Honolulu from the boat was also amazing... It would have been even better if we could have seen dolphins and turtles—am I being too greedy?? Thank you so much to everyone at Alan for such a fun and affordable experience! We're going to Hawaii again next year, so please plan another wonderful event like this one! I'm looking forward to it!!
家族四人で参加しました。早い!綺麗!面白い!!かなり水が掛かるので水着で参加すれば良かったと反省‥息子は思いっきり水をかぶってましたが、そんな事を全く気にするそぶりも見せず、心から楽しんでいたようでした!
船から眺めるホノルルの景色も最高‥イルカやカメに会えたらもっと良かったなぁ~なんて贅沢すぎ??アランの皆様とって楽しくて安い企画どうもありがとう!来年もまたハワイに行くので‥今回の様な素晴らしい企画をまた絶対に企画して下さいね!期待して待ってま~す!!

I was drawn in by the campaign price and signed up on a whim, but I was pleasantly surprised in a good way. The cost performance was outstanding.
On the day of the event, I parked the rental car at the Ala Moana Beach Park parking lot and participated.
Onboard, the crew (a dapper captain, a friendly strong skipper, and a beautiful attendant) always greeted us with smiles, and I truly had a wonderful time.
I had ridden on a three-person catamaran during my student days, but this time I was able to experience the thrill of a more authentic catamaran, which was satisfying! My two children were also thrilled. Above all, it was a rare experience to watch the surfers riding in Waikiki from behind. I could really feel, "Wow! I’m definitely out here in Waikiki." I highly recommend this to anyone considering it in the future. Be sure to wear your swimsuit when boarding! The more splashes you get, the more satisfaction you'll feel.
キャンペーン価格につられて勢いで申し込みましたが、良い意味で予想を裏切られました。コストパフォーマンスは満点でした。
当日はレンタカーをアラモアナのビーチパークのパーキングスペースに止めて参加しました。
船上ではクルーの人たち(ダンディなキャプテン、気さくな力持ちスキッパー、美しい女性のお世話係)が常に笑顔で接してくれ、本当に楽しいひと時を過ごせました。
学生時代に3人乗りのカタマランに乗ったことはありましたが、今回は更に本格的なカタマランでのスピード感を体感できて満足!二人の子供たちも大喜びでした。何より後ろからワイキキサーファーのライディングを眺められたのは貴重な経験。「おおっ!今確かにワイキキ沖にいる。」と実感が湧いてきます。是非これから検討中の方にも参加を薦めます。乗船時は是非水着着用で!水しぶきを浴びれば浴びるほど満足感は高まるでしょう。

It was the best cruise. The ship was very clean and had two restrooms. I participated with my 10-year-old and 2-year-old children, and while the 2-year-old was free, I needed to inform the cruise organizers about having a 2-year-old. We were able to board without any issues, but they mentioned it in English. It seems to be related to maritime safety. The cruise lasted about two hours. We traveled by motor to a certain point and then sailed from there. My 10-year-old lay on the net and dozed off because it felt so good. Since the net gets quite wet, it's better to wear a swimsuit. There were quite a few people in swimsuits at that time, and of course, my children wore theirs too. Only four people can be on the net at a time, so please be aware of that. There are two spots, so a total of eight people can be on the net. When I participated, there seemed to be about 15 people on the cruise. The view of Diamond Head and Waikiki from the sea was amazing. Unfortunately, we couldn't see them at that time, but I've heard you can also see dolphins and sea turtles. The meal was a light snack. It might be better to have a little breakfast before going. The pineapple juice was very delicious. I think it's definitely worth the $35 for the cruise.
最高のクルーズでした。船はとてもきれいでトイレも2つついていました。私は10歳と2歳の子供と参加したのですが、2歳の子供は無料なのですが、2歳の子供がいることだけはこのクルーズの主催者に言っておく必要があったみたいです。問題なく乗らせていただきましたが、そのようなことを英語で言っていました。海上保安の関係みたいです。クルーズは約2時間ほどだと思います。ある場所まではモーターで行ってそこからは帆をあげて走って行きました。10歳の子供は網の上で寝転び、あまりの気持ちよさにうとうとしていました。網の上は水がかなりかかりますので、水着を着たほうがいいでしょう。その時も水着の人がわりといました。もちろん私の子供たちも水着を着ました。網の上には4人までしか乗ることができないので注意してください。2箇所ありますので8人までです。私が参加したときは約15人くらいこのクルーズに参加していたように思います。海から見るダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキは最高でした。私のときはあいにく見れませんでしたが、いるかや海がめも見れるそうです。食事は軽食でした。朝ごはんは少し食べてから行ったほうがいいかもしれません。パイナップルジュースが大変おいしかったです。35ドル払っても十分もとのとれるクルーズだと思います。

I was worried about the lack of shuttle service, but I was able to walk from Waikiki. It took a little over an hour since I had children with me. I think it would take about 30 minutes for adults walking briskly. It felt great to take a morning stroll. On the way back, I was waiting for the Duty Free shuttle bus at the Ala Moana Hotel, but the bus took a while to arrive. However, if you're going to Duty Free, a taxi is free. So, I recommend that anyone participating in this cruise also visit Duty Free. They can call a taxi for you at the Ala Moana Hotel. Don't forget your shopping card or return flight ticket.
Now, about the cruise, it was amazing. Lying on the net (with the sea below) and getting splashed by the waves felt really good! It was about a two-hour cruise. It rocked quite a bit, but we took motion sickness medication, so we were comfortable. There were various types of bread and fruit for snacks. Since we didn't eat breakfast, we tried a lot of different things, but the other foreigners on board seemed to enjoy the cruise more than the food. Of course, drinks were free (soda was $2, and alcohol was around $5). The pineapple juice was delicious. I think it's definitely worth the $35 for such a satisfying cruise.
送迎がないということが心配だったのですが、ワイキキからでも歩けました。子供もいたので約1時間ちょっと時間がかかりました。大人が歩けば早歩きで30分くらいかなと思います。朝の散歩がてら気分はとてもよかったです。帰りはDuty Freeのシャトルバスに乗ろうとアラモアナホテルで待っていたのですが、なかなかバスは来ませんでした。でもDuty Freeに行くならタクシーがただでした。なのでこのクルーズに参加する人はついでにDuty Freeに行くことをお勧めします。アラモアナホテルでタクシーを呼んでくれます。ショッピングカードまたは帰りの航空券をお忘れなく。さてクルーズですが、最高でした。特に網の上で寝転び、(下は海)波しぶきをあびるのは本当に気持ちいい!約2時間のクルーズでした。結構ゆれましたが私たちは乗り物酔いを飲んでいったので快適に過ごせました。スナックはいろいろな種類のパンとフルーツがありました。私たちは朝食も食べずに行ったので、いろいろ食べましたが、ほかに乗っていた外国人はみな食べることよりもクルーズを楽しんでいました。もちろん飲み物のただでした。(炭酸ジュースは2ドル、酒は5ドル?かかります。)パイナップルジュースがおいしかったです。35ドルだしても十分満足いけるクルーズだと思います。

Amazing!! That's the only way to describe it!
It was far faster than I imagined, and both adults and kids were all smiles!
It was a refreshing two hours, swaying “gwan gwan” over the incredibly blue sea of Hawaii. The captain seemed to have experience living in Japan and spoke Japanese well, so we enjoyed the cruise without any issues! I’m really glad I signed up, especially since it was at a promotional price. My kids (a 9-year-old boy and a 6-year-old girl) are still saying they want to ride again!
サイコー!! の一言につきますね!
想像よりもはるかに早いスピードで、もう大人も子供も笑顔笑顔笑顔!でした!

On August 15th, my family of five experienced this together. It was the first time for our three children, but everyone was extremely satisfied with the sky swimming experience. Since there were five of us, I thought someone would have to be alone, but surprisingly, I (the mother) was able to ride with my 15-year-old and 9-year-old children.
Both the sky and the sea were beautiful, and the view of Waikiki was great, leading to lively conversations and a lot of fun. The staff even took photos for us, and we received the film right away. I'm looking forward to developing the pictures.
8月15日に家族5人で体験して来ました。3人の子ども達は初めてでしたが、みんな大満足の空の遊泳となりました。5人なので誰かはひとりにならなくてはと思っていたのですが何と私(母)は15歳と9歳のこどもと3人で乗ることができました。
空も海もきれいでワイキキの街も良い眺めであれやこれやと話も弾み楽しかったです。スタッフの方が写真まで撮ってくれそのままフィルムをいただきました。現像するのが楽しみです。

I participated in a members-only experience tour. Since light snacks were included, I joined without breakfast. There were various types of bread, fruits, and unlimited drinks (though there were some limits on quantity). I was satisfied and when I went out to the deck, the view was amazing!!! The breeze felt incredibly refreshing. In front of the deck, when the speed picks up, you can get splashed with water, making it feel like a thrilling water roller coaster, which was so much fun. The sensation above the net was unlike anything I had experienced before. Also, sitting in the chairs at the back of the boat while enjoying the view was great. For those who want to enjoy a leisurely cruise, I recommend sitting at the back. After getting off the boat, I felt quite refreshed on my way back. If I go to Hawaii again, I will participate again.
By the way, for the morning cruise, I took a taxi from a hotel near the Kamehameha Statue at Waikiki Beach, and it cost about $12. It was convenient since it was about a 10-minute walk to Ala Moana, so I could stop by on the way back. We were the only participants from Japan, but the captain spoke Japanese, so I felt安心して参加できました.
会員限定体験参加ツアーに参加しました。軽食が含まれていたので、朝食抜きで参加しました。数種類のパンとフルーツ、ドリンクが食べ放題・飲み放題(数に限りはありますが)でした。お腹も満たされデッキに出ると景色が最高!!!風がすご~く気持ち良かった。デッキの前は、スピードに乗ると水しぶきがかかることもあり、恐怖のない水上ジェットコースターみたいでとっても楽しい。ネットも上は、今までにない感覚。また、船の後ろの椅子に座りながら眺める景色も良かった。ゆったりしたクルージングを楽しみたい方には、後ろがお勧め。船を下りた後は、かなり爽快な気分で帰れました。HAWAII行ったら、また参加します。
ちなみに、モーニングクルーズのため集合場所には、タクシーでワイキキビーチカハモナク像近くのホテルから乗り$12くらいでした。アラモアナまでは、徒歩10分くらいなので帰りに寄れて便利でした。日本の参加者は、私達だけしたが、キャプテンが日本語を話せる方でしたので安心して参加できました。

Our family took our first submarine trip together. The kids, who had never seen the ocean floor before, were so excited! Our guide was Japanese and provided clear explanations, so I highly recommend it. I read in a review that if you sit in the back of the submarine, you can get a seat in the very front, so we did just that. We were able to sit right behind the cockpit and had a great view through the large front window. According to the kids, they also saw 14 sea turtles!

I participated with my mother. There weren't any other people over 60 like my mother, and she was worried until we took off, but once we were in the air, it felt even better than we expected! There was no turbulence, and we could see far into the distance, which made my mother happy. There were no other Japanese participants, and the staff were locals, but they tried their best to communicate with us in broken Japanese and even checked on my mother, who felt a bit seasick on the way back. We were at the lowest height, but it still felt quite high. It was very interesting. They take photos for a fee, which is a bit pricey at $15, but they took a lot of pictures, so I was satisfied. They gave us the film, so we were able to develop it the same day and show it to everyone.

I have participated in large ship cruises before, but this cruise was incredibly pleasant, allowing me to truly feel the Hawaiian sea, and it was the best. I spent almost the entire two-hour cruise at the front of the ship, enjoying delicious beer. The staff later went trolling. Occasionally, they catch tuna or mahi-mahi. Although nothing was caught that day, I was able to see flying fish skimming just above the surface of the water. This time, I was able to participate at a very low price due to a campaign, but I believe it would be worth it even at the regular price.
いままで、大きな船のクルーズには参加したことがありましたが、今回のクルーズがすごく気持ちのいい、ハワイの海が感じられて、一番です。約2時間のクルーズをほとんど船の先端のところでおいしいビールを飲みながら過ごしました。スタッフは後でトローリングをしていました。ときどき、マグロやマヒマヒが釣れるそうです。その日はつれませんでしたが、トビウオが海面すれすれを飛ぶのが見れました。今回はキャンペーンですごく安く参加できましたが、普通に払っても十分価値はあると思います。

I was nervous because it was my first time surfing, but I was fine since they explained everything in Japanese. Just as it was written, I was really able to stand up in a very short time! I was excited when I stood up. I found it really interesting to understand what it feels like to "ride the waves." It made me want to do it again somewhere. The meeting place for the lesson was a bit hard to find, so that's something to be careful about.

I had heard rumors about it, but the boat ride out to sea is quite bumpy, so it's better not to eat right before. There was an American woman who looked like she was in a "salted greens" state. I think this ride might be a bit hard for children under elementary school age. However, the view from offshore Waikiki is amazing, so I definitely encourage you to be in good shape and give it a try. Bringing your own camera or video for filming is not allowed (or rather, it's difficult due to the rocking), but if you ask, they will film one roll for $15 and give it to you at the end. This will be a nice keepsake!
噂には聞いていましたが、沖に出るまでのボートの揺れが激しいので、直前に物を食べないほうが良いですヨ。アメリカ人のお姉さんで、「青菜に塩」状態のひとがいました。この揺れは小学生以下のお子さんには少々ハードだと思います。でも、ワイキキの沖から眺める景色は最高なので、ぜひ体調を万全にしてチャレンジして頂きたいと思います。持ち込んだカメラやビデオでの撮影は不可(というか、揺れのために困難)ですが、お願いしておくと、15ドルでフィルム1本分を撮影して最後に渡してくれます。これは記念になりますね!

Yachts can really pick up speed, can't they? As a first-timer, I was pleasantly surprised. Along the way, I spotted a few dolphins, and flying fish were jumping around constantly. Although there was no shuttle service included, the check-in location was easy to find, which was great. Light snacks were provided, and it was a good decision to participate without having breakfast. On the deck, the splashes were quite intense, so it would have been better to wear clothes that could get wet. This was an activity I definitely want to participate in again next time.

When you think of Hawaii, you might expect a lot of optional tours. Our family planned to enjoy Hawaii this time without any extras. We decided to participate in a tour after seeing some information about ALAN, mainly because it was affordable and included a simple breakfast that you could enjoy by the sea. Since we rented a car, we parked for free right in front of the Ward Warehouse and headed to the cruiser. Hoping there wouldn't be too many Japanese people, we boarded the boat and found that our family was the only one. Although there were some waves at the time, the large yacht was very stable. The staff was friendly, and we enjoyed the pleasant morning breeze while taking in views of Waikiki and Diamond Head with coffee in hand, alongside a captain who shared jokes in Japanese. The two hours spent on the tour were incredibly meaningful. I've visited Hawaii several times, but this tour was exceptional. Since I had no expectations at all,
ハワイと言えばお約束の、オプショナルツアー三昧が多いと思われますね。我が家は今回もオプションなしでハワイを楽しもうと考えてました。何となく見たALAN情報にまず、値段が安いことと、簡単な朝食が出て、海で味えるので参加しました。レンタカーを借りているのでワードウエアハウスの真ん前の無料駐車場に止めクルーザーに向かいました。どうかあまり日本人が居ませんようにと思いながら船内に乗ると日本人は我が家族のみ。当時はは波はややあるとのことでも大型ヨットのため安定感は抜群スタッフの応対も良く、日本語の冗談を話す船長とともに朝の心地よい風に吹かれながら船上からワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドをコーヒーを片手に見る事ができました。2時間はもの凄く有意義な時間でした。何度かハワイには訪れていますが、このツアーは○でしょう。全く期待してなかっただけに、

This year, it seemed like there were more windy days than usual in Hawaii, but fortunately, on the day of the event, it was calm from early morning. I participated with my family of five (myself, my wife, our 8-year-old and 3-year-old children, and my mother) while rubbing our sleepy eyes. Only my wife had experience with parasailing, so I was a bit nervous about what to expect at first, but the staff's kind assistance and humor eased our nerves, and before we knew it, it was our turn to soar into the sky. The view of Honolulu and Diamond Head from high above the ocean was stunning and left a strong impression on me. We were also able to have photos taken while parasailing, which we purchased as a keepsake. My mother, who is 63 this year, was particularly happy, saying, "This became a wonderful memory, my first and last." However, she mentioned that her shoulder hurt the next day, as it seemed she had gripped the parasailing rope tightly with all her strength. I also hope that when the kids grow up, we can participate in a higher altitude experience rather than the standard one.
今年はハワイはいつもより風の強い日が多いような気がしましたが、参加当日は幸いにも早朝から穏やかで眠い目をこすりながらファミリー5人(私、妻、子供8歳、3歳、母)で参加しました。パラセールに参加した経験があるのは妻だけでしたので初めはどんなことになるだろうか緊張をしていましたが、スタッフの方の親切な対応とユーモアで和み自分達の順番まであっという間になり風を切って大空へ舞い上がりました。海上高くから見たホノルルの町並みとダイアモンドヘッドの眺めは素晴らしく印象に強く残りました。また、パラセイルをしている写真を撮ってもらえるので記念に購入をしました。特に母は今年63歳であり「最初で最期のいい思い出になった」と喜んでいました。しかし、次の日に肩が痛いということであり緊張してパラソロのロープを渾身の力で握り締めていたようです。また、子供達が大きくなったらスタンダードではなくもっと上空高くあがれる方に参加したいと思います。

We experienced parasailing for the first time as a family of four, with a standard course of about 150 meters, which was more than enough for beginners. My wife and our two children (ages 6 and 9) loved it; it was thrilling, refreshing, and offered a fantastic view of Waikiki from above. I highly recommend this tour. The kids were so excited, saying they wanted to do it again and would definitely participate next time! Seeing their joy made me promise the whole family that we would join again. In our case, we were picked up around 10:30, took turns boarding the boat, and each group experienced about 15 minutes. Our family went up together into the bright blue sky, and we were dropped off at the hotel around 12:30.
I definitely encourage you to give it a try!

I signed up for Alan's campaign and participated in the sunset cruising on July 31. The Makani was a much more beautiful and lovely ship than I had imagined. Additionally, there were only ten guests on board, including my family of four, so the kids ran around excitedly and enjoyed a lot of delicious food at a price of just $7.77, which felt like a steal for such a wonderful time. Unfortunately, there were too many clouds, so we couldn't see the sunset, but it felt great to be on the bow of the yacht, feeling the wind as we sped along. I highly recommend that everyone give it a try. You can experience a different kind of pleasure compared to the Star of Honolulu or the Navatek dinner cruises.
アランのキャンペーンで申し込み、7月31日のサンセットクルージングに参加しました。マカニ号は想像していたよりはるかに素敵できれいな船でした。また、当日は私の家族4人を含めても10人しかお客さんがおらず、子供たちは船中を大はしゃぎで走り回ったり、おいしい食事をゆっくりたくさん食べたりと7.77ドルでは申し訳ないような素敵な時間でした。残念ながら雲が多くサンセットは見れませんでしたが、風をうけて、疾走するヨットの先端はとても気持ちがよかったです。皆さんもぜひ参加してみてはどうですか。スターオブホノルルやノバディックのディークルーズとは違う気持ちよさを味わえますよ。

Two adults participated for the campaign price of $7.77 for a group of five across three generations. I was a bit worried because it was so cheap, but the boat was very clean, the staff was friendly, and there were even people who spoke Japanese, so I felt really at ease participating. The light snack bread was quite tasty, and there were several types of fruit, plus unlimited drinks, which I thought was a great deal.
That day, there was wind, and the boat was rocking. My 10-year-old daughter and I were at the bow and got soaked from the splashes, but she seemed to enjoy it and kept getting splashed. We also encountered a school of flying fish, and I think it was a great experience that we wouldn't normally have. Since you might get splashed, it's a good idea to bring a towel.
大人2人はキャンペーン価格の7.77ドルで3世代5人で参加しました。
安いので少し心配していましたが、船はとても清潔でスタッフも親切ですし日本語を話せる方もいるので本当に安心して参加出来ました。軽食のパンもなかなか美味しいし、フルーツも数種類あって飲物も飲み放題とてもお得だと思いました。
その日は風があって船が揺れ、船首にいた私と10歳の娘は波しぶきでビショビショになりましたが、娘はそれが楽しかったらしく何度も波しぶきを浴びていました。
海面ではトビウオの集団にも出会えたし、普段なかなか出来ない経験が出来て良かった思います。波しぶきを浴びるかも知れないのでタオルは持って行ったほうがよいですよ。

I participated in a catamaran cruising on July 30. Since I've been to Hawaii many times, I decided to try something I had never done before and signed up for the cruising. It departed from Kewalo Basin, right next to Ala Moana Beach, which was convenient and close to Waikiki. The captain was a very gentlemanly person who spoke Japanese well, and the crew was incredibly stylish and friendly. The weather was perfect, with a bright blue sky and sea, making for a very pleasant cruising experience. Since it started at 10 AM, I had a light breakfast before going, but there were delicious Danish pastries, fruits, and drinks on board, so it would have been fine to go without breakfast. I heard that on the previous evening's cruise, they saw dolphins, so if the timing is right, you might encounter dolphins as well. I definitely want to participate in the sunset cruising next year.
7月30日にカタマランクルージングに参加してきました。ハワイは何度も行っているので今回は今までしたことのないことをしようとクルージングに申し込みました。アラモアナビーチのすぐ隣のケワロ湾から出港なのでワイキキからも近く便利でした。キャプテンは日本語の上手なとても紳士的な方でしたし、クルーもモデル張りに格好良くて皆さんとても親切でした。お天気も最高で空も海も真っ青で、とっても気持ち良いクルージングが出来ました。朝10時からでしたので軽く朝食をとってから行ったのですが船内でおいしいデニッシュパンと果物そして飲み物がありましたので朝食をとらずに行ってもOKでした。前の日の夕方のクルージングではイルカも見れたとの話を聞いたのでタイミングが良ければイルカにも遭遇できるみたいです。来年は是非サンセットクルージングに参加してみたいです。

I parked my car in the free parking space at Ala Moana Park Drive (Ala Moana Beach Park) to participate in the morning sailing. Since it was early in the morning, it's a good idea for those using rental cars to park here. There are paid parking spaces at Kewalo Basin, but it was convenient to have free parking within walking distance.
I was surprised by how well-maintained and large the catamaran was. I could only understand about half of the initial explanation, which was all in English, but they later provided explanations in Japanese as well.
For breakfast, there was a wide variety of bread and plenty of fruit. Juice was unlimited, but please note that carbonated drinks are charged extra. We were able to see dolphins for a long time, making it an activity that could easily be marketed as dolphin watching (it seems there’s a good chance of seeing dolphins).
From the sea, I enjoyed the beautiful blue ocean and the view of Waikiki. Please experience the sight of Diamond Head and the Waikiki hotels gradually getting closer as they appeared small from the ocean. This time, sailing on a catamaran allowed me to enjoy a refreshing feeling of moving with the wind, unlike on a large ship.
If I have the chance to come to Hawaii again, I would definitely like to participate again.
モーニングセーリングに参加するためALA MOANA PARK DR.(アラモアナ・ビーチパーク)にある無料の駐車スペースに車を停めました。
朝早いので、レンタカーを利用される方はここに止めるといいです。
ケワロ湾港内にも有料駐車スペースはありますが、無料で歩ける範囲でしたので便利です。
カタマランに乗り、まずはきれいに手入れされている事と大きい事に驚きました。
最初の説明は全て英語で半分ぐらいしか理解できませんでしたが、あとから日本語でも説明していただきました。
朝食はパンの種類が多く、フルーツも余るほどありました。ジュースは飲み放題ですが、炭酸の入ったものは有料ですのでご注意ください。
イルカを長い間見ることができたので、ドルフィンウォッチングのふれこみを入れても良いぐらいのアクティビティです。(かなりの確立でイルカを見ることができるそうです)
沖から青い海とワイキキの景色を堪能できました。
沖から小さく見えていたダイアモンドヘッドとワイキキのホテルがだんだん近づいてくる様を是非皆様も体験してください。
今回はカタマランヨットで、大きな船とは違い風とともに進む爽快な感じを味わう事ができました。
またハワイに来ることがあれば是非また参加したいと思いました。

I participated in the campaign morning cruise. I was surprised by the price, which included a meal of bread, fruit, and juice.
There were several types of bread available, and while the variety was rich, there were only a few of each type, so it's better to choose your favorite bread early.
Sailing in high waves felt like a roller coaster, and some people might get seasick. (My daughter started to feel sick too, but when I had her sit near the bow and enjoy the scenery, the fun made her forget about the seasickness...) The wind was strong, and one participant's sandals were blown away and fell into the sea, so please do not leave your belongings outside. The bow area gets quite wet, so be careful with your clothing and belongings.
We were able to see dolphins multiple times, and while a few people spotted whales, we didn't notice them. I heard that sea turtles can also be seen, but we didn't see any this time.
The captain spoke Japanese very well, which made me feel at ease.
I was disappointed that there was no snorkeling available, as I thought there would be, but I believe it would have been perfect if snorkeling had been an option.
キャンペーンモーニングクルーズに参加しました。パンとフルーツとジュースの食事がついてこの値段には驚きました。
パンはいろいろな種類の物が数個ずつあり、種類は豊富でしたが同じ種類のパンの数が少ないので早めに自分の好きなパンを選んだ方がよいです。
セーリングは波が高いところではジェットコースターのようで酔う人もいるかもしれません。(我家の娘も酔い始めましたが、船首付近で座って景色を眺めさせたら、楽しさが酔いを吹き飛ばしました…)
風が強く、一緒に参加した方のサンダルが飛ばされ海に落ちてしまったので、持ち物は決して外に出しっぱなしにしないでください。
船首付近は波がかなりかかりますので服装や持ち物に注意してください。
イルカは何度も見ることができましたが、鯨は数人は見れたようですが私達は気付きませんでした。海亀も見れるらしいのですが、今回は見れなかったです。
キャプテンは日本語がとても上手で安心して参加できました。
シュノーケルがあると思っていたのになかったのは残念でしたが、シュノーケルができたらパーフェクトだと思いました。

The instructor allows us to try multiple times, so if you have motivation and concentration, everyone will be able to stand on the surfboard. Surfing is a full-body workout, and I really felt the effects of my usual lack of exercise, as I got very tired in the second half. When I got too tired to paddle, the instructor would pull me to the wave point, so it was okay even if I was exhausted.
The price feels a bit high, but considering it's Honolulu, it's about what you'd expect.
I got lost in Honolulu because the directions to the meeting place written on the voucher were incorrect, and I ended up being about 15 minutes late. I realized the importance of not relying too much on the voucher and checking the meeting place on a map.
先生は何度もtryさせてくれるので、やる気と集中力があれば、皆サーフボードの上に立てるようになるでしょう。サーフィンは体全部を使う運動だったので、日ごろの運動不足がたたって、後半すごく疲れてしまいました。疲れてパドリング(手で漕いでの移動)できなくなると、先生が波のポイントまで引っ張って行ってくれるので疲れても大丈夫です。
ちょっと値段は高い気がしますが、ホノルル値段と思えば、まあこんなもんでしょう。
バウチャーに書いてあった集合場所への行き方が間違っていたので、ホノルルで迷子になって、15分程度集合時間に遅れてしまいました。バウチャーを過信せず、地図で集合場所を確認する必要があることを痛感しました。

My parents participated. Since they didn't even bring swimsuits to Hawaii, they were very satisfied to see sea turtles, sharks, and tropical fish up close without getting wet. They were quite excited when they returned. I'm glad we chose this tour. It seems they saw more fish than I did while diving, which is a bit frustrating for me...
両親が参加しました。ハワイに水着すら持ってこない両親なので、濡れずに、海亀やサメやトロピカルフィッシュを間近で沢山見れて、大変満足していました。戻って来た時はかなり興奮していました。このツアーを選んで良かったと思います。私がダイビングで見たよりも沢山の魚を見たようなので、悔しいですが・・・。

The Makani was new and well-maintained. Sailing out of Kailua Bay towards Diamond Head was truly exciting for our family, who were experiencing a yacht for the first time. The kids were thrilled at the front of the yacht. The blue sea and sky, along with the friendly staff, were fantastic! We definitely want to participate again on our next trip to Hawaii.
マカニ号は新しく手入れも行き届いていました。ケアロ湾を出てダイアモンドヘッド沖へのセイリングは、ヨット初体験の我々家族には実にエキサイティングでした。子供達はヨットの先頭で大喜び。青い海と空、親切なスタッフ、最高でした!次回のハワイでも是非参加したいと思います。

The Makani was very beautiful and the restrooms were clean. We were the only Japanese family, but there were staff members who understood Japanese, so we didn't feel inconvenienced. When the speed picked up, it felt like an amusement park ride! The kids enjoyed it too.
On the deck, you get splashed with water, so I think it's best to participate in swimwear.
I definitely want to join again when I visit Hawaii.
マカニ号はとても綺麗でトイレも清潔でした。日本人は私たち家族だけでしたが、日本語のわかるスタッフもいて、不自由は感じませんでした。スピードが出ている時、遊園地のアトラクションみたい!と子ども達も楽しめました。
甲板にいると、水しぶきがかかるので、水着での参加がよいと思います。
また、ハワイを訪れたときは是非、又参加したいです。
