I heard that the water has become clearer thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, so I visited Hanauma Bay for the first time in 42 years. I feel like the water was clearer back then compared to this visit. However, there were so many sea cucumbers that there was hardly any space to stand, making it uncomfortable to land on the sandy bottom. This time, I hardly encountered any sea cucumbers, and I felt there were many types of fish. I'm good at free diving, but since I borrowed a wetsuit for the season, my body was buoyant, making it difficult to dive deep, which was a hassle. It seems just right for looking down from the surface without diving.
コロナパンデニックのお陰?で水がきれいになったと聞き、42年ぶりにハナウマ湾に行ってきました。
その頃は今回より水は綺麗だったような気がします。
ただ、足の踏み場が無い程の大量のナマコがいて砂地の着地は気持ちが悪かったです。
今回はナマコには殆ど遭遇せず魚の種類も多く感じました。
素潜りは得意の方ですが、季節柄ウエットスーツを借りただけに体が浮き深く潜る事ができにくく厄介でした。
潜らず水面から下を眺めるにはちょうど良いようです。

In recent years, I've been going to Hawaii every year, but I couldn't go ziplining because my partner wasn't on board, which was frustrating. This time, we finally got to go together and had a great time.
We were part of a short tour with a group of seven people, including three Americans (a parent and child) and two young Asian women. One of the buggy drivers had studied in Japan and arranged for us to receive the photos he took via email (for free).
The only disappointing thing was that the longest line was closed. I want to challenge myself again.
ここ数年、毎年ハワイには行くものの連れ合いの賛同が得られずジップラインには行くことが出来ず辛い思いをしていました。
今回ようやく一緒に行ける事になり楽しんで来ました。

There were staff members who could speak Japanese, which made me feel at ease to participate. It was the rainy season, so it rained on and off, but I had a great time. I didn't see any honu while snorkeling, but since we had some free time left, they took us by boat to a place where we could see honu, and I was able to see them! It was so much fun.
日本語が話せるスタッフさんがいらっしゃり、安心して参加をすることが出来ました。

シュノーケリングではホヌが見られなかったのですが、自由時間が余ったため、船でホヌが見られる場所に連れて行っていただき見ることが出来ました!

I was set on a tour that stopped at just the Sandbar, my mom insisted we do a tour that went to 2 locations... She was right! The sandbar is awesome and I encourage people to get out and walk around while you're there, play volleyball (if you want) or just enjoy being on land while under about 2 feet of water! Its wild! A Puffer Fish greeted us! She was much bigger than what I thought puffer fish were. We had burgers and drinks and were off to our second location ... the reef!! On our way we saw a bunch of sea turtles! They were HUGE! Some swam right up close to the boat! It was incredible. It was after a mild storm so the water wasn't 100% clear but still fairly clear. There were tons of colorful fish swimming all around us. I took a few mins to swim around the whole reef! Which every time I popped my head up and saw I was further away from the boat was a little scary and exciting! It was such a fantastic adventure day! My mom loved it, my kids were a little afraid at first at the reef but came to love it too! The crew... let me not forget about the crew! They are absolutely amazing! Knowledgeable, friendly,... when my daughter started to cry (9 years old) they knew her name and kept encouraging her! It was the sweetest! My son thought the main guide/lifeguard was the coolest and just wanted to swim where ever he swam (7 years old). The captain on our boat that day was a lady and also super friendly! Highly recommend to all ages and all skill levels! (I had my cell phone with a water protected case - i highly recommend. I purchased mine before the trip from REI, they sold similar ones in the ABC stores in Hawaii.)

It wasn't low tide, so the water level was about waist-high. I think it's a matter of luck when participating. I personally enjoyed the waist-high water more than the knee-high water. I recommend checking the low and high tide times in advance when making a reservation, but you can enjoy the beautiful sea regardless.
Also, since it was a lounge boat plan, we were able to use one SUP in a private setting, which was comfortable. It was a bit cold on the boat due to the strong wind, but they provided windbreakers with hoods for everyone, which was helpful.
I declined snorkeling due to the cold, but the captain was flexible and asked if we should drift a bit or stay here.

I wasn't able to see dolphins, but I did get to see whales and turtles. Since they are wild animals, there's no guarantee you'll see them, so I actually feel grateful for the experience of seeing the less common animals. Oh, but maybe that's because I was able to see dolphins twice in the past, in Hawaii and Guam.

This is my third departure so far, but I think the previous buggy experience was more enjoyable. The reason is that during trips to a certain country, we were told not to go to places where buggies are allowed, which led to a boring course, as I heard from the staff.
If those who do not keep their promises are not allowed to ride the buggy, I believe we could have a more varied course. Recently, the quality of participants has declined, and they have stopped listening to the guides, resulting in just riding the buggy without any exploration.
I would like to participate again if we could have a fun sightseeing course like in the past, with people who keep their promises. From now on, I think it would be safer and more enjoyable to take all tourists from a certain country by bus instead of using buggies.
If I want to see various movie sets, I think a different movie course would be better. However, I appreciated that all the staff were kind and helpful. I believe it will improve even more as more Japanese tourists come and the quality of travelers increases.
通算今までに3回目の出発ですが、前のバギーの方が楽しかったと思います、原因は某国の旅行の方がバギーに乗って行っては行けないと言われているところに行ったりするので、こんなつまらないコースになったと言うことをスタッフから聞きました。
約束を守らない人はバギーに乗せないようにしたら、もっといろいろなところ行けるコースになると思います。
あくまで出席者が最近質が悪くなって案内を聞かなくなったので、コースでバギーでただ走るだけになったと言う形です。
昔の楽しい観光のできるコースがもう一度約束を守ってくれる人たちになるとまた参加したいです。
これからはバギーコースでなくて、確実に某国の観光客は全員をバスで連れて行ってもらう方が安全で楽しいと思いました。
あくまでバギーでなくて、いろんな映画の舞台を見に行きたいと思えば、違う映画のコースの方が良いと思います。
でもスタッフが全て優しくて良かったと思います。
これからもっと日本人がもっと多くなって旅行者の質が上がるともっと良くなると思います。

If you arrive exactly on time for the meeting (10:30 AM for an 11:00 AM start), you will end up waiting for a full 30 minutes. Unfortunately, the explanation during the pre-monitoring was difficult to understand. However, we do some practice on the sandy beach, and the instructor provides support while we're on the water.
During my first attempt, I couldn't catch any waves and felt a bit down, but on the second try, the instructor taught me the tips again, and after that, I was able to enjoy it a lot. Most of the other participants were also first-timers, but everyone managed to ride the waves. Before starting, they ask if you want the photo option for $65, and I think not ordering this was a mistake (I believe they were taking photos with a drone).
集合時間(11時開始の場合10時30分)にきっちり間に合うと30分しっかり待つことになります。
残念ながら、事前のモニターでの説明はわかりにくいです。
しかし砂浜でちょっとした練習をしますし、海上ではインストラクターがサポートしてくれてます。
1回目は波に乗れずにまさに撃沈で若干凹んでしまいましたが、2回目はインストラクターが再度コツを教えてくれたので、その後はとても楽しむことができました。
他の参加者も初めての人がほとんどでしたが、みんな波に乗れるようになっていました。

Since we were the only Japanese couple, Mr. Akira Ogawa approached us before the show started and explained, "I'll include some Japanese as we go along." Once the show began, the host entertained us with fun magic tricks and jokes in easily understandable English. During Mr. Ogawa's show, I was even called upon as the only participating Japanese person, which allowed me to feel a sense of unity with the other audience members, transcending the language barrier in what felt like a brief but enjoyable hour.
I've been to Hawaii over twenty times, but since I usually focus on outdoor activities, it was a great decision to participate in a show this time. It was truly enjoyable to see Mr. Ogawa's magic, which is said to be the best in the world, up close.
日本人は私たち夫婦のみだったためか、緒川集人さんから、ショウが始まる前に声をかけていただき「様子を見て日本語も入れますから。」などと説明していただけました。ショウが始まると、聞き取り易い英語で司会の方がジョークを入れた楽しいマジックを見せてくれ、緒川さんのショウでは、唯一参加している日本人として振られる突っ込みもあり、言葉の壁を越えて他の観客の人たちと一体感を感じながらのあっという間の1時間でした。
ハワイは、これまで20数回来ているのですが、アウトドアが専門だったので、今回はこれまでと違ったショウを楽しんでみようと参加したのが大正解でした。

It was a tour that everyone from toddlers to adults could enjoy. During the jungle experience, the vehicle swayed with excitement, and we had to wait for cows blocking the road to move. Every time the scenery changed, everyone took photos with their cameras, and the view from the mountain climb was incredibly beautiful. It was a day so sunny that it didn't feel like the rainy season, and we were blessed with warm weather, making it enjoyable throughout.

We had a family of eight on this tour and all enjoyed themselves.
The bus arrived at our pickup point on time. The driver/host was very knowledgeable about Pearl Harbor as well as other local sites. The only slight drawback was the sound system on the bus was acting up and occasionally produced feedback (no the fault of the driver/host). She dealt with it as best she could.
We arrived at all the tour points of interest on time and had plenty of time to view each. Given the clear instructions from the driver/host, we knew exactly when to be where.
The lunch was good and the location in the aviation museum was enjoyable.
We finally were returned to the pickup point, also on time.

Although the weather was bad, the staff were friendly and engaged in conversation, making my time very enjoyable. Additionally, I was able to see wild sea turtles at an incredibly close distance.

A few participants seemed to enjoy snorkeling alongside the sea turtles, and I would like to try again in Hawaii during the summer.

It takes just under an hour to arrive from Waikiki using Uber.
I participated with my family (ages 7 to 70). It was the 7-year-old's first time horse trekking, but the horse was very well-behaved and responded well to the reins. Along the course, there were cows and birds, and unfamiliar flowers were blooming, allowing us to enjoy a leisurely and relaxed conversation while taking in the sights. Photography and video recording are allowed, and since the pace is slow, it's definitely possible.
On the day we participated, there were no staff members who spoke Japanese, but all the staff were very kind, and we could communicate well through expressions and gestures. Large luggage can be stored at the reception, and you can participate while carrying a small crossbody bag. They take photos along the way, but you can download them later for a fee. The restroom with running water was clean, but it was unfortunate that there was no soap at the handwashing station.
There were dogs running freely, and goats and cows that you could feed, making the waiting time enjoyable.

It was about a 15-minute walk from Ala Moana Center, located in a corner of a warehouse district. I recognized it right away by the monkey sign. The door had a note in Japanese asking to ring the bell. Since there were no windows and I couldn't see inside at all, it took some courage, but before I pressed the bell, a staff member opened the door with a smile, possibly having checked with a camera.
Inside, there were art pieces illuminated by black lights, creating a cool atmosphere. The restroom was clean and had soap at the sink. They keep your belongings in plastic cases. Since the room is reserved for us, we could leave valuables in a corner.
I layered a T-shirt I brought, so I didn't use the poncho and enjoyed doodling on the canvas, wall, and T-shirt I received. I recommend shaking the splatter gun with fluorescent ink well before use. They make sure the canvas can be taken home in a box.
The staff didn't understand Japanese at all, but they were kind and spoke slowly, and gestures helped communicate, so it wasn't a problem. The store's website states it opens at 4 PM, so it's good to confirm when making a reservation.
In a room lit by black lights, listening to music while splattering fluorescent ink and making a mess, I could enjoy myself without worrying about getting dirty. It was a rare experience that I usually can't have. The canvas souvenir was also a nice touch.

The items I brought and used included disposable towels, sweat wipes (even if it doesn't look dirty, it gets dirty when you wipe), and a garbage bag for my belongings (which can be placed at the foot of the passenger seat, saving the $5 locker fee).
Since there are three breaks and photo opportunities, some people brought water. On the way to Kualoa Ranch, it drizzled a bit, so having a raincoat would be reassuring.
My clothes got dirty, and my hair became messy, so I took a shower when I returned to the hotel. Even though I didn't understand English, I had a great time, and the mountains and ocean were incredibly beautiful and moving. I think this is an experience that is hard to come by in Japan.
事前に皆さんの体験談を読ませて頂いていたため、とても役に立ちました。持って行って使った物は、捨ててもよいタオル、汗拭きシート(顔は見た目ではあまりわからなくても拭くと汚れていました)、荷物を入れるゴミ袋(助手席の足元に置けるのでロッカー代5ドルが浮きます)。
3回休憩+写真タイムがあるので水を持っている方もいました。クアロアランチに向かう途中、パラパラと雨が降ったのでカッパもあった方が安心です。
服も汚れますし、髪もバサバサした感じになるのでホテルに帰ってシャワーを浴びました。
英語がわからなくても楽しかったですし、山や海がとても綺麗で感動しました。日本ではなかなか味わえない経験ができると思います。

The sandbar trip was so fun. My husband and I had a great time. The crew is friendly, knowledgeable and the boat is clean. The lunch was great and we overall had an amazing time. We would definitely do this again and recommend to anyone either as a couples trip or as a family trip. I think it’s great for all ages.

I visited Hanauma Bay for the first time in over 10 years. Previously, I could take a direct bus from Waikiki and freely enter the water, but it seems that after COVID, you can no longer enter without a ticket. I gave up on getting a ticket since they are sold online only two days in advance, so I joined this tour instead.
The guides were a very kind and wonderful Japanese woman and a gentle foreign man who spoke fluent Japanese. From the entrance to the explanatory video and entering the water, it was a bit complicated, so I felt it was difficult without a Japanese-speaking guide.
They took us to a snorkeling spot with lots of fish, which was really fun. Although I didn't see any sea turtles, I was glad to see many different types of fish. I recommend this for anyone wanting to visit Hanauma Bay. Also, if you're going in winter, a wetsuit is essential. The sun is hot, but the water temperature is surprisingly low.
10年以上ぶりにハナウマベイに行きました。
以前はワイキキからバス1本で行けて、海にも自由に入れましたが、コロナ後は入場チケットがないと入れなくなったようです。しかも2日前からオンライン販売と、チケットを入手するのは難しいと諦め、こちらのツアーに参加しました。
ガイドは日本人のとても親切で素敵な女性と
、日本語ペラペラの優しい外国人男性です。
入場から説明ビデオから海に入るまで、少しややこしいので、日本語のガイドさんがいないとやはり難しかったなあと思いました。
シュノーケルも魚がさくさんいるポイントに案内してくれて、とても楽しかったです。
ウミガメは見れませんでしたが、様々な種類の魚がたくさん見れて良かったです。
ハナウマベイに行かれたい方には、おすすめします。
あと、冬に行かれる場合は、ウェットスーツが必須です。日差しは暑いですが、水温は意外と低いです。

Das Waikiki Luau Dinner bestach durch sein überaus freundliches Personal und das hervorragende Essen, das traditionelle polynesische Geschmäcker gekonnt in Szene setzte. Besondere Höhepunkte des Abends waren die mitreißende Polynesische Show und die spektakulären Auftritte der Doubles von Elvis Presley und Michael Jackson. Diese Darbietungen brachten eine einzigartige Energie und Begeisterung, die das Publikum faszinierte. Die Kombination aus exzellenter Gastfreundschaft, kulinarischen Highlights und diesen hochkarätigen Performances machte unseren Besuch zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis. Ein absolutes Muss für alle, die einen Hauch von Hollywood in der hawaiianischen Kultur erleben möchten.
