Ko Olina Ocean Adventures Snorkel with Wild Dolphins Rafting Tour [Open Soon]

Snorkeling Trip!

Reviewed by: Jessica

We spent 8 days in Hawaii, and did a lot of activities. I have to say that this snorkeling trip was my favorite thing of the whole trip. We got to swim with about 40 wild dolphins, sea turtles, and feed tropical fish. It is so amazing to be with these animals in their natural habitat. So much cooler then doing any type of interaction at a sea park. I highly reccomend this to anyone. Any time I go back to Hawaii in the future, I will definitely be doing this trip again.

Dolphins and sea turtles too. イルカと海亀も

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

This is my second time on a dolphin tour (the first time was with another company). I was able to see many dolphins, and it was fun to get up close to the sea turtles. The staff on the boat also entertained us in various ways.

It was a bit disappointing that the female staff didn't provide enough information about whether we could change clothes in addition to just borrowing wetsuits or using the restroom.

イルカツアーは2回目です。(1回目は他社)
イルカもたくさん見れたし、海亀とも超接近できたのが
楽しかったです。
船上でもスタッフがあれこれ楽しませてくれました。

ウエットの貸出や、トイレだけなのか着替えていいのか、女性スタッフの言葉が足りなかったのがちょっと残念。

Wild dolphins♪ 野生のイルカ♪

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I wish I could have swum a little closer to the dolphins, but I was moved to see wild dolphins for the first time. I also saw sea turtles, and the hamburger I had on the boat was very delicious.

At the end of the tour, we were taught hula dancing. To be honest, I wasn't very enthusiastic at first, but surprisingly, it was fun to dance! I thought it would have been nice to have a bit more time for the hula lesson.

I wish there had been time to change before heading back, but overall, it was a very satisfying tour.

Thank you very much.

イルカともう少し近くで泳げたらよかったな・・と思いましたが、初めて野生のイルカをみれて感動しました。
ウミガメも見れたし、あと船上で食べたハンバーガーもとても美味しかったです。

ツアーの最後にフラダンスを教えてもらうのですが、
正直、初めはあまり乗り気じゃありませんでしたが、
踊ってみると意外にも楽しい!!
もう少しフラレッスン時間があってもよかったと思う位でした。

帰りの着替える時間があればよかったかな?と思いますが、全体的にとても満足のいくツアーでした。

ありがとうございました。

One hundred dolphins! イルカが100頭!

Reviewed by:

We participated for the first time as a couple. Since we had an early morning meeting, I was nervous about whether we could wake up, but we received a courteous morning call and were able to join without being late. On the way, it was raining, but it cleared up perfectly at the destination, and we were lucky enough to see a rainbow.

Furthermore, shortly after the boat departed, a group of about 100 dolphins greeted us, and we were able to see many of them both from the boat and underwater. The staff were very considerate, ensuring that pregnant participants like me and those with children didn't overexert themselves, which made us feel very safe and allowed us to enjoy the experience. We quickly bonded with the cheerful and friendly staff.

After snorkeling, they kept us entertained by drawing cute flowers and dolphins on our arms with pens and even danced the hula. Both my partner and I are vegetarians, and they accommodated us by preparing the hamburgers in a vegetarian style, making it a truly satisfying tour.

I highly recommend this for beginners, families, and solo travelers alike!

夫婦で初参加しました。
朝早い集合だったので起きられるかドキドキしましたが、丁寧なモーニングコールをいただいて遅刻せずに参加できました。
この日は行きのバスでは雨が降っていましたが現地ではばっちり晴れてくれて、虹まで観えてラッキーでした。
さらに船が出発してからすぐ100頭程のイルカの群れが出迎えてくれて、船の上からも水中からもたくさん観る事が出来ました。
妊婦の私やお子さん連れの参加者へも無理しないようにと細やかな気遣いをしっかりしてくださり、とても安心して楽しむ事ができました。陽気でフレンドリーなスタッフさん達とすぐに打ち解ける事ができました。
シュノーケリングが終わってからも飽きさせないように、腕にペンでカワイイお花やイルカを書いてくれたり、フラを踊ってくれたり楽しませてくれました。
夫婦とも菜食なのですが、ハンバーガーをベジタリアン仕様にして下さるなど本当に大満足なツアーとなりました。
初心者・家族・ひとり、どんな方にもとてもオススメです!

I was glad to see wild dolphins. I was also surprised by how beautiful the ocean was. My child didn't like snorkeling because it was uncomfortable, but when we used regular pool goggles without fins, they were able to swim happily.

野生のイルカが見れて良かったです。海がきれいなのもビックリ。子供はシュノーケリングが息苦しいと嫌がったが、普段のプールのゴーグルで足ひれも無しにしたら元気に泳げました。

It was fun!! 楽しかった!!

Reviewed by: dolphin love

Recently, I participated with three friends. Perhaps because the waves were a bit high, the dolphins didn't swim close to us at first. After several attempts, we were finally able to swim with the dolphins on the last try. It seems they were cautious because they had a baby dolphin with them.

After that, we went to the snorkeling point, but there weren't many unusual fish that day, and the high waves made it feel like we might get seasick just floating in the water, so everyone decided to head back early.

One of my friends completely got seasick. They had prepared hamburgers for us, but while they were getting ready, the boat stopped, and it rocked a lot due to the waves. We all ended up not being able to enjoy the hamburgers and took them back to the hotel instead. The special taro bread hamburger was very delicious, but the seasickness was really tough, so I think it would be more enjoyable if the boat could keep moving during lunch.

The hula lesson afterward was pleasant and fun. I would love to repeat this experience if I have the chance again.

先日、友人と4人で参加させていただきました。
ちょっと波が高かったせいか、イルカは最初全然そばを泳いでくれなく、
何回か飛び込んだあと、最後の1回でイルカと共に泳ぐことができました。
どうやら赤ちゃんイルカを連れていて警戒心が強かったそうです。

その後、シュノーケリングポイントにも行ったのですが、この日はあまり珍しい魚がいなかったのと、やはり波が高くて水に浮いてるだけで酔いそうだったのでみんな早々に引き上げた感じでした。

友人のうちの1人は完全に船酔いでダウン。
ハンバーガーを用意してくれていたのですが、その食事の準備の最中から船が停泊してしまったので、思い切り波に船が揺れてしまい、私達は全員ハンバーガーどころではなく、結局持ち帰ってホテルでいただきました。
特製タロイモパンのハンバーガーということでとてもおいしかったのですが、ちょっとあの船酔いはホントにきついので
出来れば、船は停泊せずに進みながらお昼にしてもらえればもう少し楽しめるかなって思います。

その後のフラレッスンも気持ちよくて楽しかったです。
また機会があったらリピートしてみたいです。

It's close to the dolphins. イルカと近いです

Reviewed by: karibu

First of all, this tour has a high quality. Usually, expensive tours aimed at Japanese people always have a Japanese guide, but this tour does not. However, there is an excellent local guide who understands the Japanese spirit and provides detailed guidance, so it's perfectly fine even if you don't understand English at all. I felt that this tour was thoroughly researched for Japanese participants.

Of course, regarding the important rendezvous with the dolphins, this was the closest encounter I've had on any tour so far, and it really felt like we were swimming together. I highly recommend this tour for those looking to meet dolphins. I was also impressed by the service that sends a group photo if you register your email (of course, for free).

 まず、このツアーはクオリティーが高いです。
通常は、日本人向けの値段の高いツアーには必ず、日本人ガイドがいるのですが、このツアーにはいません。
しかし、日本人の心を理解した優秀な現地ガイドさんがいまして、きめこまやかなガイドをしてくれるので、英語がチンプンカンプンでも全然オーケーです。
かなり、日本人向けに研究されているツアーと感じました。
 もちろん、肝心のイルカとランデブーですが、今までのツアーの中で一番の最接近で、本当に一緒に泳いでいる感じがしました。
イルカと逢いたいツアーをお探しの方は、おすすめです。
Eメールを登録すると、集合写真を送ってくれる(もちろん、無料)サービスも、感心しました。

You can really swim with wild dolphins. 本当に野生のイルカと泳げます

Reviewed by: 雷太

I had signed up for a different tour last time, but we ended up chasing dolphins in the bay, with phrases like, "Hey, chase them! They're over there! Look, over there!" and ultimately, we couldn't see them underwater. I thought to myself, "It's wild after all," when I saw the photos of people swimming with dolphins, thinking this was a rare case. However, to my surprise, I was able to see a pod of dolphins swimming underwater from above and the side, just like in the photos. I believe this was largely thanks to the instructors. They carefully guided us by saying, "Come over here! Look ahead, look down!" to show us where the dolphins were.

On the boat, the captain, who somewhat resembled Gary Sinise (which reminded me of Forrest Gump), along with the staff, performed hula and played the ukulele! Even when they were distributing the hamburgers for lunch, they always created a cheerful atmosphere that made the guests feel a sense of unity. The staff, especially one who resembled the cheerful enka singer Jero, helped create a relaxed feeling.

The only downside was that there was a family with a child around three years old, and at first, the child was crying loudly, which scared the dolphins away. I hope participants consider the age of their children when joining.

前回別のツアーに申し込んだのですが、イルカがいる湾内で、”ほれ、追いかけろ!あそこにいるぞ!ほれ!あっちだ”みたいな感じで、ひたすらイルカを追いかけて、結局水中では見られませんでした。やはり野生だからね~~と、こちらの一緒にイルカと泳ぐ写真をみたときも、こういうのはまれなケースだよと思っていましたが、なんと、写真と同じ、群れをなして泳ぐイルカを水中で上から、横から見ることができました。それはインストラクターのスタッフのお陰によるところが大きいと思います。”こっちきて!前見て、下見て”とイルカがどこにいるか、丁寧に誘導してくれます。また、船上では、どことなくケーリー・シニーズに似た船長(なので、フォレストガンプを思い出しました)とスタッフによるフラや、ウクレレ演奏!そして昼食のハンバーガーを配るときもいつも陽気にお客さんに一体感を感じさせる演出をしてくれます。親切で陽気な演歌歌手ジェロ似のスタッフを始め、リラックスした気持ちにさせてくれます。
ただ残念だったのは、3歳くらいの子供を連れた親子がいたのですが、最初子供が泣き叫び、その声でイルカが逃げて行ってしまいました。参加する人も子供の年齢を考えてほしいものです。

Dophin observation

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

This activity was well worth the cost. The crew as great and did everything possible to make sure that everyone had the opportunity to "swim" with the spinnner dolphins and see other unique sea life while snorkeling. Don't go into this activity expecting the dolphins to swim right up to you. They are wild animals. Be content with seeing this wonderful creature in its natural habitat no matter how close they come to you. The two snorkeling sights that were great. Especially the turtle cleaning station. My best advice is to remember that you are being given the oppotunity to see these animals in their natural environment. Listen to the advice of the crew - this is a time for observation, a chance to see what the animals are like when they are not in a confined place. It is not the time to try and touch or chase these graceful creatures.

Aloha Tony, Just wanted to say big mahalos for a great day on the water. That was the best charter fishing trip I've ever taken. You and Max kicked ass and never stopped working for us out there. Too bad we couldn't nail an ono and get the "clean sweep", but that big spearfish, big mahimahi, and the ahis were definitely good for a day's worth of excitement. Plus, that big marlin hitting the 2 lines on the starboard side and then launching himself into the air was just awesome. Too bad he spit the hook, but we'll get 'em next time. Keep up the great work, and I'll see you soon.

Just wanted to thank you for a great day on the ocean. Cutty, Raina and Taka have a priceless Hawaiian memory and I have a freezer full of Mahi! Cutty (who is a chef) grilled some and topped it with homemade corn/black bean/yellow bell pepper salsa, a dollop of sriracha/mayo sauce, and nori-strip garnish -- it was the best fish I've ever eaten. No joke, even my kids asked for more (and they don't even like fish). Cutty was so happy, he went to Hana Paa and bought one of those yellow mahi flags, so he can frame it when he gets back to PA. And Taka began his lecture at UH by showing the pics of our Mahi! Which confused the audience, and amused me to no end. Yeah, we all had a great time and will never forget that day. Thanks again.

We went on the full day charter. The captain and crew really knew what they were doing, because we caught a variety of fish. It is quite an experience when you are reeling in a fish that weighs over 40lbs. It was a rewarding experience to fight with a fish and eventually get it aboard the ship. We were on the Boom Boom II, which was a really beautiful boat. When you felt like you were getting sun burnt, you could go into the cabin and relax in the shade, which probably saved a few of us from getting burnt.

Beautiful snorkeling

Reviewed by: G. Akers

Excursion was overall quite enjoyable. Was a bit disappointed that no turtles were seen, but this was due to weather/surf conditions and not under staff control. Crew worked hard to try to get all passengers in water with small pod of dolphins we encountered. As they were constantly moving, saw more of them from boat. They were amazing and a lot of fun to watch.
The highlight of the trip for me was feeding the fish while snorkeling. As soon as a few food pellets released, you'd be swarmed with beautiful tropical fish--quite the experience. (However, as there were so many passengers on the trip, you were also surrounded by other swimmers making it difficult to maneuver without getting hit, bumped, or kicked.) Majority of staff were very nice and worked hard to make guests comfortable. Photographer did a fantastic job.
Would definitely recommend the excursion, but be aware that conditions can affect what you experience, be prepared to be snorkeling in a good-sized group in op

My husband and I did the morning snorkle on 10/26/09. Being a certified SCUBA diver, I never thought snorkeling would be so memorable after diving several exotic locations. Boy was I wrong. The staff made it a point to make all 3 locations as memorable and interactive as possible from locating a pod of approx 160 dolphins after several failed attempts to even finding several impressive turtles at the "cleaning station." This is a total A+++ adventure and I recommend to everyone. But for having event planned every other day during our stay, I would have gladly redone this adventure and hope to do it again when we return to Hawaii.

It was great. I was lucky enough to have the turtles swim right up to my nose, and the dolphins to swim up right underneath me. We had some trouble getting the dolphins to come close, but I'm glad that the crew kept on trying. The guys were really nice and the photographer took some great shots. I think it's great for first timers as well - you can opt to go after everyone and the crew really makes sure that you're safe. I would do it again any time (if I had more time in Oahu, I actually would've done it again in the week that I was there) and highly recommend it.

I wish I heard about the "deep drop" before I went, but I guess it just means I'll have to go again...

While enjoying the peaceful scenery, I headed to Waianae Harbor on the west side of Oahu! After about five minutes out on the boat in the clear, beautiful sea, we got ready to swim. While changing into a wetsuit (top half) and life jacket with careful instructions, a pod of dolphins appeared!

A group of dolphins was gracefully swimming slowly near the boat! There were about 20 to 30 of them in total. Some dolphins even jumped energetically! Upon closer inspection, I saw baby dolphins jumping too!!!

It seems I was lucky this time, as the pod performed near the boat for over 30 minutes. Those who swam closer could even hear the dolphins' calls♪

After that, we went snorkeling at a place called "Dragon Palace," which is full of sea turtles! A sea turtle came right next to the boat, so I was really glad to see it up close.

The BBQ on the boat after getting tired from all the excitement and the hula performed by the local staff was also great.

Thank you for this precious experience!

初めて野生のイルカに会ってきました!

のどかな風景を眺めつつ、オアフ島西部ワイアナエ・ハーバーへ!透き通っててきれいな海をボートで沖へ5分ほど行ったところで、泳ぐ準備をしました。丁寧な説明を受けながら、ウェットスーツ(上半身)とライフジャケットに着替えていたら、イルカの群れが!

ボートの近くをイルカの群れが優雅にゆ~っくりと泳いでいるんです!合計で20~30頭くらいかな?中には勢いよくジャンプを披露してくれるイルカも!よーく見たら、赤ちゃんイルカも一緒にジャンプ!!!

今回はラッキーだったみたいで、イルカの群れがボート近くで30分以上パフォーマンスを披露してくれてました。近くまで泳いでいった人は、イルカの鳴き声とかも聞こえたんだとか♪

その後、竜宮城と呼ばれるウミガメが沢山いるところでシュノーケリング!ボートすぐ横にウミガメがでてきてくれたので、すごく近くで見れてよかったです。

はしゃぎ疲れた後の船上BBQでの腹ごしらえやロコスタッフによるフラもよかったです。

貴重な体験を有難うございます!

Oahu West Coast Sunset Cruise with Cocktails from Waianae - Hawaii Nautical

Very Relaxing!!

Reviewed by: Lilly

We did the sunset cruise and it was great. We walked to the marina from our hotel (Marriott Beach Club) and were surprised how friendly the staff on board was. They were always offering us drinks and chatting with us. Sitting on the net of the boat was fun and the sunset was romantic. I had champagne and my finance had the cruise's "special" drink which had 3 shots of rum in it. The experience was romantic but a family would enjoy this too. There were a few groups of friend on board that seemed to enjoy themselves. It is a nice end to the day, not too expensive, and very relaxing. Recommended for everyone!!
