I saw a certain idol enjoying this canoe in Hawaii, so I decided to try it out. As a result, riding the waves is so much fun!! Surfing and bodyboarding are difficult, but with this canoe, it's easy to experience. I was able to ride the waves three times.
某アイドルがハワイでこのカヌーを楽しんでいたので、体験してみました。
結果、波に乗るって楽しい!!
サーフィンやボディボードは難しいけど、このカヌーなら手軽に体験可能。
3回波に乗ることができました。
If you're going to Waikiki Beach, you should definitely ride the waves, not just watch. It's highly recommended with family and friends!

I've seen various silk shows, and the first thing I thought upon entering was that it was a small venue. I initially thought it might be a bit cramped, but once the show started, it was incredibly powerful and I was very satisfied. The production made the most of the space, and it was truly wonderful. I'm really glad I attended.

The guide shared various stories about Hawaii during the trip, which was very informative. In Haleiwa Town, we were first given a tour of the restrooms and attractions by car, and then we had free time to explore, so we could enjoy sightseeing without getting lost. I think it was a good decision to take the tour since it would take a long time to go by bus.
道中にガイドさんがいろいろなハワイの話をしてくれて勉強になりました。ハレイワタウンも最初に車で一通りトイレや見どころなどの案内をされてから自由行動でしたので、迷わずに観光できました。バスで行くと時間がかかるのでツアーにしてよかったと思います。

We also got to do some snorkeling, seeing some beautiful fish. My main point of this review is to talk about how amazing the crew was when hit with a massive change. As we were enjoying our time, it got caught short due to a Tsunami warning. Every crew member was fantastic with this, making everyone feel safe and less nervous.

This time, I went to Hawaii with my eldest son and his child. I searched online for places in Japan that I could visit with my 4-year-old grandchild and decided that Wet 'n' Wild would be the best choice. After that, I looked for various tours and ultimately chose Veltra. I was relieved to find out that we could board the bus about 10 minutes before the scheduled departure, even though I initially thought we would be taking a large dedicated bus. It was also great that we could board the bus about 10 minutes before the return trip. Safety and security are absolute requirements when traveling abroad, so I reaffirmed that Veltra meets those standards.
今回は長男親子と一緒にハワイへ。日本で孫(4歳)と一緒に行ける所をネットで検索し、ウェットアンドワイルドが一番良いかなと選択。その後、色々なツアーを検索し最終ベルトラに。ツアーでは大型専用バスでの往復と思いきや、当日小型バスで待合せ場所に約10分前にバスに搭乗出来て安心しました。帰路も約10分前にバス搭乗出来て良かったです。
安心と安全は海外では絶対条件に成りますのでベルトラは適応していると再認識しました。
Please prioritize safety and security when selecting a tour.

I made a reservation while checking the tide chart, and I was fortunate with the weather, allowing me to see the sandbar that emerged from the water! The part that actually comes out of the sea has more coral fragments and rocks than sandy beach, so marine shoes are essential.
I took photos with my iPhone, and it was amazing to see the sea turtles (honu) resting right in front of me and swimming close enough to touch, along with many colorful fish! At first, I was considering a tour that lends fins, but it wasn't necessary since we moved slowly along the not-so-long reef while enjoying the view.
In addition to sun protection, it seems there were jellyfish that the honu feed on in some areas, so having a rash guard would provide extra peace of mind.
潮見表を見ながら予約しましたが天候にも恵まれ、ちゃんと水面から出たサンドバーを見る事が出来ました!
実際に海面から出ている部分は砂浜より珊瑚のカケラや岩のような部分が多く、マリンシューズは必須でした。

日焼け対策もですが、ホヌが餌にしているクラゲが所々にいたようなので、ラッシュガードはあった方が安心です。

I participated in a tour with "Dolphin University" that cruises near the westernmost point of Oahu. There were many Japanese staff members, and their explanations were thorough, allowing me to feel safe and enjoy the experience throughout. On the boat, there were also commentaries about the surrounding islands and scenery, which deepened my understanding of Hawaii's nature and culture. During the cruise, I encountered sea turtles three times and observed a pod of wild dolphins. I was particularly moved by the sight of baby dolphins jumping. After the cruise, I had a snorkeling experience in the deep sea where I couldn't touch the bottom. Swimming with colorful fish gathered around the bait felt like a dream, and it was a highly satisfying tour that allowed me to feel one with nature.
オアフ島最西端付近をクルーズする「イルカ大学」のツアーに参加しました。日本人スタッフが多く、説明も丁寧で終始安心して楽しめました。船上では周囲の島や景色についての解説もあり、ハワイの自然や文化をより深く知ることができました。クルーズ中には3回もウミガメに出会い、野生のイルカの群れも観察。特に子イルカがジャンプする姿には感動しました。クルーズ後は、足のつかないほど深い海でのシュノーケリング体験。餌に集まるカラフルな魚たちと泳ぐのはまさに夢のようで、大自然との一体感を味わえる、非常に満足度の高いツアーでした。
On the ship, it gets quite cold after coming up from the sea, so I think it's essential for each person to have a bath towel or a wrap.

As everyone has mentioned, it is very enjoyable and offers magnificent views.
There are breaks for photo opportunities, but you can fully experience it for a solid two hours.
The downside is the waiting time. I departed from the Sheraton at 8:15 and my experience was scheduled for 10:45, but there was over an hour of waiting before the experience. This is manageable, but after the experience, it ended around 12:50 and I had about three hours until the return bus at 15:45. Even if you take your time for lunch and look at souvenirs, you will have about two hours to spare.
If you want to make the most of your limited travel time, I think it's better to go by rental car.

昼をゆっくり食べ、お土産をみても2時間ほど持て余します。
限られた旅の時間を有効活用したい方はレンタカーなどで行かれた方がいいと思います。

Unfortunately, when we arrived at Sandbar, the beach was visible, but by the time we received the explanation and got on the canoe that was prepared for us, it was submerged.
You can check the tide schedule on the website, so it's recommended to confirm that before you go, but even without that, you can have a lot of fun.

Fantastic experience! Delivered on everything during this trip! Kids had a blast and we saw turtles, dolphins, octopus, and many fish. Would do it every time that I am here!
Mahalo nui loa for your amazing review!

**Review**
The round-trip transportation to Hanauma Bay and the rental of snorkeling gear made it easy to enjoy snorkeling with minimal luggage! Even in shallow areas where you can stand, there were fish as big as those in Thailand swimming around, allowing beginners to see many fish, which was a lot of fun. The time spent at Hanauma Bay was also sufficient.
The driver spoke English, but he spoke slowly and used simple language, making it easy to understand. He was friendly during the ride, and I felt the warmth and kindness of the people of Hawaii! It was truly a wonderful experience that will remain a lifelong memory.
I also appreciated that I could enter Hanauma Bay without worrying about the reservation scramble that individuals have to deal with.
**Points for Improvement**
The bus was scheduled to gather at 5:40, but it actually arrived at exactly 6:00. Since there were elderly passengers on the same bus, I understand that delays can happen.
However, there were two emergency contact numbers provided in case of delays, but neither of them was reachable. Both just had an automated message saying, "The office opens at 8 AM, so please call back after that." I waited for 20 minutes and was really starting to feel anxious about whether to leave. I would like to see the emergency contacts made more reliable.
The driver was a good person, and because of his kindness and the beauty of Hanauma Bay, I am very satisfied overall, but I deducted one star due to the phone issues.
【感想】
ハナウマ湾への往復の送迎と、シュノーケリングのための道具を貸し出してくれるので、少ない荷物で快適にシュノーケリングが楽しめました!
海の中で足がつくような浅い場所でも、タイくらいの大きさの魚が泳いでおり、初心者でも何匹も魚を見ることが出来て、とても楽しかったです。
ハナウマベイに滞在できる時間も十分でした。
ドライバーさんも英語で話しますが、ゆっくり目に話してくれたり、簡単な英語で伝えてくれるので理解しやすかったです。
往復の車内でもフレンドリーに話してくださり、ハワイの人の温かさや親切さを感じました!
一生の思い出に残る、本当に良い経験が出来ました。
個人でハナウマ湾に入る時に申し込まなければいけない、ハナウマ湾入場の予約争奪戦を気にせずに確実に入場出来るという点も、安心でした。
【改善して頂きたい点】
バスの集合時刻は5:40集合となっていましたが、実際にバスが到着したのは6:00ちょうどでした。
同じバスのお客さんに高齢の方もいらっしゃったので、到着時間が遅れた事自体は仕方ないと思っています。
ただし、バスの到着が遅れた際に連絡する緊急連絡先のような電話番号が2個案内されていましたが、どちらも繋がりませんでした。
どちらも自動音声で、「事務所のオープンは8時だから、それ以降に電話して下さい」と言う英語の音声が流れるだけでした。
20分待って、本当にもう帰ろうかと思うくらい不安でした。緊急連絡先はしっかり繋がるようにして頂きたいです。
ドライバーさんは良い人でしたので、ドライバーさんの人の良さとハナウマベイの素晴らしさで、総合評価としてはとても満足ですが、電話が繋がらなかったことで星を-1させて頂きました。
I thought the entrance to Hanauma Bay was first thing in the morning, but the time was determined by the group on the bus I took, and we were informed of the entrance start time on-site that day. Mine
ハナウマ湾の入場は朝一番なのかな、と思っていましたが、乗ってきたバスのグループ別に時間が決まっており、当日現地で入場開始時間を伝えられる形でした。私は7:20でした。

I personally used this during my long stay in Honolulu for school. With a departure around 6 AM, I was back at the hotel by just after 10 AM, which allowed me to make good use of my morning. There were only a few people, which added to the private feel, and that was great!
In the morning, we snorkeled in shallow areas due to low tide, but the water was very clear, and I was able to see various fish! According to the guide, it seems that in the afternoon, when the tide is high, we can go further out, but the visibility might decrease a bit. The morning is early, but it seems to be less crowded compared to the afternoon. Both morning and afternoon have their pros and cons.
The guide was also kind and provided helpful advice on how to use the wetsuits and life jackets, as well as how to put on the masks. There are showers and restrooms available on-site.
スクールでホノルル長期滞在時の間に個人的に利用しました。午前6時過ぎ出発で10時過ぎにはホテルに戻られるので朝活の時間の有効活用ができます。人数も数名程度でプライベート感もあり良かったです!
午前の朝は引潮で浅い場所でのシュノーケルとなりますが、海の透明は高く色々なお魚を見ることができました!ガイドさんいわく、午後は満潮になるので沖には出れるみたいですが、透明度は若干下がるみたいです。午前は朝早いですが、午後に比べて空いてるみたいです。午前も午後も一長一短あるみたいです。
ガイドさんも親切でウエットスーツやライフジャケット使用方法、マスク付け方等を親切にアドバイス頂けました。
現地にシャワー、トイレもあります。
I think it's better to rent a wetsuit since you'll be snorkeling for nearly an hour ($10). You'll also need to bring cash for tips for the guide on the way back. (There is a place to store valuables o
1時間近くシュノーケルするのでウエットスーツはレンタルした方が良いと思います。(10$)
ガイドさんへのチップも帰りに別途必要ですので、現金$も持参必要です。
(現地で貴重品預ける保管場所あります)
Thank you for joining the tour this time. Please participate in our tour again when you come to Hawaii. Next time, I would like to take you out to the ocean as well. The views are beautiful and different from the inside. I look forward to seeing you again. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
この度はツアーにお越しくださり、ありがとうございます。またハワイにお越しの際にはツアーにご参加ください。次回は沖の方にもお連れしたいなあと思っております。インサイドとはまた違った景色で綺麗なんですよ。またお会いできますことをお待ちしております。本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
