It was amazing!!
At first, I was a bit anxious, but once I flew, it felt incredible!
We went from the lowest height of 210 meters, but it was more than enough fun.
Aside from us as a couple, all the other participants were foreigners, and the staff didn't seem to understand Japanese, but that made it fresh and enjoyable in a way. The seasickness mentioned in the reviews didn't affect anyone on our boat. I tend to get motion sickness, so I took medication beforehand, but I felt like I could have been fine without it. The wind was strong, and the boat rocked quite a bit, but the time flew by until all five groups had jumped; I don't think we were on the boat for even an hour.
The photos are just 15 for one negative, so I think that's cheap.
I'm looking forward to developing them! ☆
There was also a little boy and an elderly man on our boat, so I think people of all ages can enjoy it.
Next time, I definitely want to try jumping from a higher height!
最高でした!!
最初は不安でしたが、飛んでみたら最高に気持ちよかった!
一番低い210Mでしたが、十分楽しめました。
私達カップル以外参加者は全員外国人だったし、スタッフの方も日本語は通じない感じでしたが、それが逆に新鮮で楽しかったです。書き込みにあった船酔いも、私達の船に乗った参加者は全員平気でしたよ。私は酔いやすいので薬を飲んで行ったのですが、飲まなくても平気だったんじゃないかなって感じでした。風が強くて船はよく揺れましたが、私達含め5組飛び終わるまでがホントにあっと言う間で、船に乗っている時間は1時間もないんじゃないでしょうか?
写真もネガ一本で15?なので安いと思います。
現像するのが楽しみです☆
私達の船には、小さな男の子も一人参加のおじいさんもいたので、年齢問わず楽しめると思います。
次は是非一番もっと高く飛んでみたいです!

The Pearl Harbor tour was well done. Our tour guide, who was also our bus driver, did a great job explaining how the tour would be conducted, getting our large group lined up in order, and seeing that we all gained entrance to the tour together. The one thing that I did not care for was the tour guide's advice about who to vote for in the American presidential election. It reduced his tip by 50%.

We participated as a family. It's an experience that you don't get to have often, so of course, adults can enjoy it too, but the kids were definitely excited the whole time. They were thrilled to see so many fish and turtles. I'm glad we took them. It became a wonderful memory.
家族で参加しました。
なかなかできない体験ですので、もちろん大人も楽しめますが、やっぱり子供達は終始興奮でした。

It was my first experience! It was so much fun. You rarely get to have such an experience, right? We were the first to jump from the boat, and there was a rainbow right above us!! I was moved by the feeling of flying in the sky, the beautiful scenery, and being able to see the rainbow! Then, on our way back to the port after everyone finished jumping, we unexpectedly encountered a pod of dolphins! We were able to see wild dolphins up close. A series of lucky events made it the best trip ever.
初めての体験!とってもたのしかったです。こんな体験めったにできないですもんね。私達は乗った船の中で一番に飛んだのですが、ちょうど真上に虹がでていたんです!!空を飛んでいることと、景色がとってもきれいなこと、虹を見れたこと、すべてに感動!そして全員が飛び終わって港に戻る途中、偶然イルカの群れに遭遇!野生のイルカを間近でみることができました。いくつものラッキーが重なって最高の旅になりました。

My family and I went on this tour last year, and we cannot wait to visit the islands once again to experience more whale watching!
The onboard whale expert was very knowlegable and even though my daughter peppered her with questions throughout the tour, she was very attentive and answered each one throughly.
I do wish that there was a bit more outside deck space since it was rather limited, but there was plenty of space indoors, and there were quite a few windows as well.
Great tour!

Since I applied online, I was a bit anxious until the day of the event, but I was able to go parasailing without any issues. I especially appreciated the kind assistance we received even though we changed our schedule just two days before our departure.
The meeting point on the day might be a little hard to find, but there is a police station nearby, so it might be a good idea to ask if you're unsure. A friendly female police officer helped us out. Since it's a place with many tourists, I think they get asked for directions often.
There were others who boarded from the same location as us, and everyone was foreign, so the car was filled with non-Japanese people! I was quite anxious, but when we arrived at the site, I was relieved to see some Japanese people there as well. Additionally, during the parasailing, everyone was Japanese, which made me feel more at ease!
There were six groups on our boat, and everyone applauded when we took off. It created a sense of unity... Falling into the sea at the end was also quite amusing. I was so nervous that I didn't even get seasick... However, for those who are worried, it might be a good idea to take some medication.
Lastly, we paid a $5 tip for the two of us. The photos (negatives) cost $15, but since it's a rare experience, I don't think that's too expensive.
インターネットからの申し込みだったので、当日まで不安でしたが無事パラセイリングをする事ができました。
特に私たちは、出発の2日前に日程を変更したにもかかわらず親切に対応していただき、有難かったです。
当日の集合場所が、少しわかりづらいかもしれませんが、近くに警察署があるので、わからなければ聞いてみるのもいいかもしれません。親切に女性の警察官が教えてくださいました。観光客が多い場所なので、よく聞かれるんだとおもいます。
私たち以外にも同じ場所から乗車された方もいましたが、皆さん外国の方で、車の中も全員外人さん!
不安いっぱいでしたが、いざ現地につくと日本人の方もいらっしゃり安心しました。
また、パラセイリング時には全員が日本人だったので安心でした!
私たちの船には6組いましたが、全員が飛び立つ時に拍手がおこります。団結力ができるような・・
最後に海に落とされるのも面白いですよ。
緊張のあまり船酔いもなく・・
ただ、心配な方はお薬を飲んだ方がいいかもしれません。
最後にチップは二人で5ドル支払いました。
写真(ネガフィルム)は15ドル必要ですが、めったに出来ない経験なので、そこまで高くないとおもいます。

This was one of the highlights of our trip! Driver was a bit late but it in no way impacted our experience. Its very busy at Pearl Harbor but everything is handled efficiently and although we waited in a very long line, it moved quickly and we were off to the memorial building. Very moving and impressive ! Every visitor to the island should see!

I can't believe I could experience parasailing at such a low price! I chose the cheapest course, but I had plenty of fun. We went out to sea on a boat, and the guys driving the boat and preparing the equipment were very kind and quite playful. As we gradually went higher, I didn't feel scared at all. It felt like floating gently, and the view was amazing!!! I could see the ocean and Diamond Head beautifully. While I was flying, a plane took off right at that moment, and it was thrilling to see the plane in the air. I flew with an American woman, and we chatted and had a great time. It became a wonderful memory.
パラセイリングがこんなに安価で体験できるなんて!
一番安いコースにしましたが、充分に楽しめました。
ボートで沖まで出て、そこから飛ばしてくれるのですが、船を運転するお兄さんも用具を準備してくれるお兄さんもとても親切でとってもお茶目な人たちでした。
徐々に高くなっていくので、全然怖くなかったです。
ふんわり浮いている感じで、景色は最高です!!!海もダイアモンドヘッドもとてもきれいに見えました。
私が飛んでいる時にちょうど飛行機が飛び立ったところで、空中で飛行機を見れたのも感動でした。
私はアメリカ人の女性と一緒に飛びましたが、おしゃべりしたりしてとても楽しかったです。
とてもいい思い出になりました。

This was a great way to start our family Hawaiian vacation. There was something for everyone to do. We made fresh flower lei's, learned to play the ukelele, and had hula lessons. The staff was extremely friendly and accomodating. The lunch buffet had a very nice selection and was ono (yummy).
Two hours didn't seem quite long enough. There were so many activities that we didn't get much opportunity to just sit back and enjoy the view of Honolulu from the sea. I would recommend this for a family activity. I would go again, next time for the whale watching season.

Since alcohol is available, all the passengers are cheerful and friendly. It's not the kind of atmosphere where you simply gaze at the sunset; instead, it feels like a lively and relaxed cruise enjoyed with Westerners.

I'm not very good at diving, and since I can't snorkel or dive, I chose to go on a submarine. We traveled along the seabed off the coast of Hawaii, where I could see fish and turtles up close, and in addition, we got to see planes and ships that sank during the war, which was a great experience. Also, since I don't often have the chance to ride a submarine, it was a wonderful experience. The moment the submarine emerged from the water was particularly impressive! I had a lot of fun!!
私はあまり水に潜るのが得意ではなく、シュノーケルやダイビングができないので、潜水艦を選択しました。
ハワイの近海の海底を進んでいくので、お魚や亀が間近で見れますし、加えて戦争で海に沈んだ飛行機や船も見ることができ、良い経験をさせていただきました。
また、あまり潜水艦に乗る機会がないので、良い経験になりました。特に、潜水艦が海中から現れるところは圧巻です!
とても楽しかったです!!

Most of the customers were Caucasian. However, the instructions and requirements were not difficult, and as long as you follow what the person in front of you does, there shouldn't be any language issues. After departing from the harbor, we were out in the waters off Ala Moana Beach in about ten minutes. There, we put on our gear and before we knew it, we were soaring into the sky. It really felt like we were flying, and it was incredibly refreshing. The air was very quiet, and while gently floating for a little over ten minutes, we enjoyed views of Waikiki, Diamond Head, rainbows, and planes flying above. The landing was completely smooth, and I didn't feel any burden at all. The price felt reasonable, so I definitely recommend it. They take photos for a fee, but I usually don't request those. However, since there were four of us, it was $15, and they give you the film on the way back, which is also affordable. I tipped $5 per person. Given this price, I really felt it was worth trying for a memorable travel experience.
お客さんはほとんどが白人系でした。でも注意事項も要領もそんな難しくなく、前の人の通りにやれば語学の点では問題ないです。港を出発して10分程度でアラモアナビーチの沖に出ます。そこで装具をつけてあらよというまに、空に飛び出します。本当に飛び出されるという感じで、とっても爽快。空中はとても静かで、ワイキキの街やダイヤモンドヘッド、虹や上空を飛び交う飛行機を眺めながら、ふわりふわりと10分少々の心地より空中散歩です。着地も全くスムースで何の負担も感じませんでした。値段的にもお手ごろ感があるので、是非ともお勧めします。写真を有料で撮ってくれるんですが、通常そういうのは頼まないのですが、4人で行って$15、帰りににはフィルムをくれるので、こちらもお手ごろです。チップは一人5ドル払いました。このお値段ならば、旅の記念にチャレンジしてみてよかったと、つくづく思った次第です。

We thoroughly enjoyed our trips aboard the Makani (so good we did it twice)!!
The boat is modern and very roomy. The crew without equal (especially canine "Captain" Pal)! On our first sail, we were treated to a fantastic show by a large school of dolphins. Pal (all 9 pounds of him) dove off the stern to swim with his "buddies". Not expected, but nonetheless unforgetable.
The scenery, crew, and value of this adventure are unmatched anywhere on the island in our opinion. Thanks, John, for the great times. We'll be back soon!

The pickup bus was about 10 minutes late, which made me a bit anxious, but I was prepared for that, so it wasn't a problem. The other participants were all foreigners, which heightened the feeling of being on vacation abroad, and now that I think about it, I’m glad there weren't any Japanese people. We hardly understood any English, but it felt like there was no need to worry. I had heard that the boat would sway, so I took motion sickness medication, and that helped. Indeed, the speed was quite fast, and there was enough bouncing that taking the medication might be a good idea for peace of mind. The view of Hawaii from the sky was truly amazing. Up there, it hardly swayed, so my partner and I could quietly enjoy the scenery. I was able to bring an underwater camera, so I took beautiful photos from above and was very satisfied.
ピックアップのバスが10分くらい遅れたので少しドキドキしましたが、それくらいのことは覚悟の上だったので問題なしでした。
参加者は私たち以外は外国の方たちでしたが、海外に遊びに来たという気分が高まって、今になって思うと日本人がいなくて良かったかなと思います。
私たちは英語がほとんどわかりませんでしたが心配いらない感じでした。
ボートが揺れると聞いていたので酔い止めを飲んでいったので大丈夫でした。確かにスピードもかなり出てたしバウンドするくらいの揺れだったので飲んで行ったほうが安心かもしれません。
空から見るハワイの景色は本当に最高でした。上ではほとんど揺れないので静かに彼とふたりで景色を楽しめました。

In the morning, I participated in a morning cruise on the Makani and then went parasailing. Since the location was close, I joined without transportation. I wondered if I would be scared before it started, but once I was lifted up, I felt no fear at all. I participated with my 9-year-old daughter, and she also said she wasn't scared and enjoyed it. Later, she mentioned that she wanted to do it again. The view from above is amazing, and with only the sound of the wind, it feels incredible. There were two boats, but it seemed they only had the standard one. The boat sped quite a bit on the way to the location, so it was a bit bumpy, but after that, we just floated with the wind, so I didn't get seasick. I would love to participate again.
AMにMakani号のモーニングクルーズで、その後、パラセイリングに参加しました。
