Passeio cumpriu com o prometido, porem a vista da baleia pode ser de longe, já que é um grande barco e chegar mais próximo poderia incomodar. Tripulação bem atenciosa. O café do buffet é ok, talvez compense ir em outro local para tomar café melhor pelo mesmo valor.

I signed up for the Star of Honolulu tour because it promised less rocking. I didn't know that we had to stay 100 yards away from the whales until we boarded the ship, so I was disappointed by the difference from the impactful photos in the brochure. The crew pointed out the direction of the whales several times, but they mentioned that the splashes were far away, so the people around couldn't see them either.
If you're taking a cruise ship for the first time, I think you'll enjoy the atmosphere. A pod of about 20 dolphins appeared right next to the ship, and there was a cheer from everyone there.
揺れが少ないということでスターオブホノルルのツアーに申し込みました。船に乗るまでクジラと100ヤード離れていなければいけないとしらなかったのでパンフレットの写真のインパクトとの違いにガッカリしました。クルーの人達は何度もクジラのいる方向を教えてくれましたが、遥か彼方で水しぶきがあがっているので周りの人達も見えなかったと言ってました。
クルーズ船に初めて乗るなら雰囲気を楽しめると思います。20匹程のイルカの大群が船の真横に現れてそこだけ歓声が上がっていました。

I thought it would be lucky if I could see it, but I was actually disappointed that I couldn't. I kept wondering if it would happen, and then it just ended. I guess it was nice to enjoy the cruise, though. I would like to reboard if possible, but I was told I need to make a reservation by phone, and I'm hesitant because I'm not confident in my English skills.
見れたらラッキーぐらいでしたが、実際見れなくてがっかり。くるかくるかと思いながらおわってしまいました。クルーズを楽しんだと思えばまぁ良かったのかな。できれば再乗船したいのですが、電話予約しないといけないと言われ、英語力に自信ないので、躊躇しております。
Thank you very much for boarding with us this time. We are also disappointed that we were unable to observe any whales during your trip. We sincerely hope that you will join us again on your next visit to Hawaii during whale season. Our staff is looking forward to welcoming you back. If you would like to make a reservation by phone, we have a Japanese line available, so please feel free to call us.

I boarded with children aged 5, 3, and 0.
It's a comfortable tour for families!
I didn't mind the rocking at all.
Since it starts early in the morning, we brought sandwiches and snacks.
Snacking while looking at Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach was the best.
Unfortunately, we only caught a glimpse of a whale from a distance.
However, we encountered a pod of dolphins and saw dozens of them!
It was amazing!!
I think it's great for elderly people and families with children.
5、3、0歳の子供と乗船しました。
子連れには快適なツアー!
揺れも気になりませんでした。
朝は早いので、サンドイッチやお菓子を持参。
ダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキビーチを眺めながらのスナックは最高でした。
残念ながらクジラは遠目にチラッと見えた程度。
ただ、イルカの群れに遭遇し何十頭も見れました!
感激!!
高齢者やお子様連れには良いと思います。

The weather was nice, and we were able to see a big rainbow along the way! The whales didn't show themselves much, but they did blow water and revealed their large bodies above the surface! It was moving! They continued to blow water, but they didn't show themselves much after that; however, this time they showed their big tails! It seemed a bit difficult to see them from the front like in the advertisements, but I'm glad I woke up early to participate! For breakfast, there were bread, sausage, scrambled eggs, rice, and several types of fruit.
天気も良くて途中大きな虹も見ることが出来ました!肝心のクジラはなかなか姿を見せてくれなかったけど、潮を吹いて大きな体を水面から見せてくれました!感動しました!その後も潮を吹くけどなかなか姿は見せてくれませんでしたが、今度は大きな尾っぽを見せてくれました!広告になっていたような頭から姿を見るのはちょっと難しそうですが、早起きして参加してよかったです!朝ごはんはパン、ソーセージ、スクランブルエッグ、ライス、フルーツ数種類ありました。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. It's truly unfortunate that you weren't able to see a whale in its entirety. However, I hope you had the opportunity to witness it spouting several times, making your cruise worthwhile. We would love for you to join us again when you visit Hawaii in the winter.

We had a wonderful time on our whale watching excursion! We were picked up by the bus - it was early/on-time. We made it to the dock, got our picture taken (didn't buy it, it was too pricey!), then on to the boat. The boat was huge and there was plenty of seating inside and on the top deck. We opted out of lunch, which I think was for the best since me and my husband didn't feel that great on the ride out in the open water. But it did look nice and drinks were available for purchase. Once we got out on the water, we started seeing some whale blows and headed more in that direction. We then saw dolphins swimming next to our boat which was just as exciting as seeing the whale! But what was even cooler was once we got closer to the whale, marine biologist said that what we were seeing was the dolphins were playing with the whale, which he hadn't seen in 4 years! He was very informative. We also enjoyed some live music which seemed the bring the whales and dolphins around more! We probably saw about eight whales in all, ten dolphins and one sea turtle. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, aside from feeling a little seasick.
Aloha! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your whale watch cruise with us! Thank you very much for sharing your wonderful experience. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you aboard again soon. Mahalo and a hui hou (until next time)!

On January 30th, I had high hopes for the season, but unfortunately, I didn't see any whales. I didn't even see any dolphins. The weather was nice, and the cruise itself was good. If you don't see anything, it would be nice to have an option for the next ticket, as some people can go and some cannot, such as offering a "compensation gift."

Before departing from Japan, the weather forecast predicted cloudy rain, but it turned out to be sunny, as we say in Japan. The pick-up was smooth, and after boarding, we had a light snack while the captain gave an explanation. Then we had free time and went to the upper deck. After about 20 minutes, the captain announced that we were heading towards 1 o'clock, and we could see the spouting. After that, every 20 minutes or so, we were able to see the spouting and tails, and I was able to take photos with a telephoto lens. On the way back, we were also lucky enough to see dolphins. The boat accommodated 1,500 people, and I didn't feel much rocking, so it was comfortable. The upper deck can be quite windy and chilly, so having a windbreaker would be a good idea.
日本出発前は、曇り雨予報でしたが、結局は、日本でいう晴れでした。送迎もスムーズで、乗船後、軽食を採りながら船長の説明があった後、フリーとなり、屋上デッキへ。20分くらいして船長から1時の方向とアナウンスがあり、潮吹きが見えました。その後も20分くらい置きに、潮吹き、尻尾を見ることができ、望遠レンズで写真も撮れました。帰りには、イルカも見ることが出来、ラッキーでした。船も1500人乗りで、揺れもそんなに感じること無く快適でした。屋上は、風が強く肌寒いので、ウインドブレーカーがあるといいです。

When I went to the harbor, there was a large cruise ship docked, and just seeing it made my heart race with excitement. I opted for a simple whale watching plan, but the breakfast buffet also looked delicious.
For the first hour, we couldn't see any whales or even dolphins. The upper deck felt quite shaky, and since we couldn't see any whales, the kids started to feel seasick and were complaining about wanting to go back because they were scared of the rocking (I think motion sickness medication is a must).
I thought we might not see anything today, so I went down to the first-floor deck and relaxed in a chair. Suddenly, we spotted a mother and calf whale off Waikiki Beach! For about 30 minutes, we were able to watch them spout water and leap dramatically out of the water with their tails.
The kids, who had been grumbling, were suddenly thrilled and seemed very satisfied with the cruise. Winter in Hawaii can often be cold for pools and beaches, so I really recommend whale watching!
港に行くと大きなクルーズ船が停泊していて、それを見ただけでも心躍る気分でした。
シンプルなホエールウオッチングだけのプランにしたのですが、朝食ブュッフェも美味しそうでした。
始めの1時間ほどはクジラどころかイルカも見えず。屋上デッキは結構揺れが感じられ、クジラも見えないし子供たちは船酔いしてきたかも…とか、揺れるの怖いから帰りたい…とかグズグズでした(酔い止め薬は必須かと思います)
こちらも今日は見えないのかもと1階デッキまで降りて椅子に座りながらのんびりと過ごしていたら、ワイキキビーチ沖で親子のクジラ発見!30分ほどの時間ゆっくりと何度も潮吹きや尾びれをダイナミックに水上に跳ね上がる姿を見ることができました。
グズグズしていた子供たちも一気に大興奮で大満足のクルーズになったようです。

I really liked how this whale watch cruise kept you entertained the whole time. Unfortunately we didn't spot too many whales on the day I went, but the cruise experience itself was still really nice. The lunch buffet was good and fresh. Then they offered activities to do while on board, like hula lessons, lei making, and ukulele lessons, which makes this the perfect cruise for families with little ones. These activities weren't just for kids though, many of the adults were participating too. It was great to be able to roam around the entire boat and getting to see the whales from the top deck, which is a lot higher than any of the other whale watch cruises!

When I got onto the boat the weather didn't seem so nice and I thought it was going to be gloomy but as the boat departed the weather started to clear up and it was blue skies! The view from the boat was amazing. The island looked so beautiful from a far. I've been living here my whole life and I never realized how beautiful it was. The food they provided on the boat was very delicious. If I wasn't so full I would have definitely gone back for more. Sadly, I was not lucky enough to have spotted any whales, however, I did get to see spout a couple of times. Even though I wasn't lucky enough to spot any whales I was still very entertained. The music and activities they provided on the boat was so much fun. I got out of my comfort zone to participate in hula dancing. I was super embarrassed but I still had a lot of fun.

From the pickup location, we took a bus to board at Honolulu Harbor, where the captain welcomed us. If you look up a little, you can see other cruise ships and planes in the sky (these are passenger planes from Honolulu Airport). As we departed the resort, we headed towards Waikiki while passing container ships, resort ships, and Coast Guard vessels. Just this alone gives you a feeling of being on a sightseeing cruise.
From here, we went to a point where whales are known to be, waiting for them to surface for air. I didn't know this myself, but whales don't stay at the surface all the time, and they don't go to various places just to be found. We went out to the side of the boat and searched for whales. But don't worry! When a whale appears, they announce it over the loudspeaker in a clockwise direction. It's okay if you're not good at English. People will quickly move to the right or left. Once a whale dives, it won't surface for more than 20 minutes, so even if you see one, you might not see it multiple times. I was lucky enough to see them twice this time. However, there is a law called the 100-yard rule (keeping a distance of over 100 yards from the whales), so you can't see them up close. When I saw them the second time, one happened to surface right next to the boat, making it look huge. (In this case, the rule is to turn off the engine to avoid harming the whale.) You won't necessarily see them every time. It's best to book on a sunny day according to Hawaii's weather forecast.

I had never been to Hawaii during whale watching season before, and this was my first attempt at whale watching. I boarded the boat with high expectations, but unfortunately, I wasn't able to see any whales... tears.

We were returning home the next day, so we didn't use it, but I heard that if you don't see any whales, you can receive a free boarding ticket. (Transportation to the boat is separate.) I thought it was nice that they have such care in place.

I had a hard time figuring out the meeting place, and even when it was time, there was no sign, so I was wandering around the harbor. I was happy about the all-you-can-drink beer, but the cruise distance was too close to Oahu, and there were no whales around here, as expected. It felt a bit overpriced.
集合場所が分からず、時間になっても表示もなくハーバーの周りを右往左往して大変でした。

This was my third time participating in whale watching, but unfortunately, there were no signs of them coming to the surface this time.
It was disappointing, but the weather was nice, and I had a great time leisurely watching Waikiki Beach. I felt a bit anxious when I saw black smoke rising from the sea.
I hope to try again next time!
3度目のホエールウォッチングへの参加でしたが、今回はご縁がなく一度も水面に上がってくる気配がありませんでした~
残念でしたが、お天気がよくワイキキビーチをのんびり眺める良い時間でした。
海上より立ち上がる黒い煙を眺めるタイミングにザワザワしてしまいました。
また次回リベンジしたいと思います!
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly sorry that the whales did not make an appearance. However, we are very pleased that the weather was favorable. We hope you will join us again on your next visit to Hawaii, and we will continue to strive for improvement.

At first, I was worried about whether I would see whales, but once we got out to sea, I was able to see spouts and the tails as they entered the water. I couldn't see the whole whale, but it was great to witness such a dynamic scene.
Additionally, the weather was calm that day, and the sea breeze felt refreshing, washing away my worries.
I opted for breakfast this time, but it felt a bit rushed to grab it before departure, so I didn't really enjoy it leisurely. This was a disappointing aspect, but I plan to skip breakfast next time.
While whales are the main attraction, enjoying the view of Waikiki from the sea while feeling the ocean breeze is also a delight.
はじめはクジラが見れるか不安でしたが、いざ海に出てみると潮吹きや海に入る際の尾びれなどを見ることができました。くじらの全体像は見れませんでしたが、ダイナミックな光景を見れたのはよかったです。
また、この日は風も穏やかで海風が気持ちよく、気持ちを洗い流された感じです。
今回は朝食を付けたのですが、出港前にあわただしく取りにいく感じてゆっくり食べた気はしませんでした。このあたりは残念な点でしたが、次回は朝食無しでお願いするつもりです。
クジラがメインではありますが、海風にあたりながら海からワイキキを見るのも一興です。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly delighted that you were able to see whales. It seems you also enjoyed the Hawaiian climate. Regarding the busy breakfast, we will share your valuable feedback with our staff and work on improvements.

The free coupon mentioned in the reviews can only be used this season, so it seems like it's limited to residents...

今シーズンのみとのことできっと行けるのは住んでる方限定ですね、、

I was disappointed that I couldn't see any whales. I tried hard to find them, but I couldn't. I heard that I could get a re-boarding ticket, but there is no transportation provided, and if I don't see any whales next time, I would feel even more disappointed, so I decided not to take the re-boarding ticket.
クジラにあえず残念でした。がんばって探したのですが、見つからず。再乗船券ももらえるようですが、送迎などは無く、次回もクジラに会えなかったらもっと残念に思うので、再乗船券はもらいませんでした。
Thank you very much for boarding with us this time. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you aboard again when you visit Hawaii.

They jumped beautifully with Diamond Head in the background. I wish they could jump again since we could see it so close to the land.
ダイヤモンドヘッドをバックにして綺麗にジャンプしてくれました。あんなに陸の近くで見れるなんて、もう一回ジャンプしてほしかった。

The weather was calm, and the boat seemed to be less crowded, allowing us to enjoy it leisurely.
We encountered dolphins along the way, but unfortunately, we didn't see any whales.
I had heard that this time of year has a high chance of seeing them, so that was a bit disappointing...
穏やかな天気のなか
船も空いてる様で
ゆったりと楽しめました
途中イルカに遭遇しました
ただ残念ながら鯨は見れませんでした
この時期高い確率で見れると言う事でしたが
そこだけが残念…

I often go to Hawaii during summer vacation, but this time I decided to go in January for the first time, so I participated in a whale watching cruise to see the winter whales. It was a cloudy day with strong winds and high waves, which might be why the whales were not showing up. The captain announced that we would be turning back today, and the boat started to head back.
Then, from the other side, there was a cheer! Surprisingly, a whale was spouting water! And even its large tail fin! The boat made another U-turn to get closer to the whale. I'm grateful to the kind captain.
ハワイは夏休みに行くことが多く、今回はじめて1月に行くことになったので、冬のくじらに会いたいとホエールウォッチングクルーズに参加しました。この日は曇り空で風も強く、波が高かったせいかなかなか鯨が出てきてくれず、キャプテンから今日はUターンするとのアナウンスがあり船は引き返すことに。
そこへ反対側からなにやら歓声が!なんと、鯨が潮を吹いているではありませんか!そして大きな尾びれまで!
船はもう一度Uターンして鯨のそばまで行ってくれました。やさしいキャプテンに感謝です。
Thank you very much for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly delighted that you enjoyed the cruise. We will continue to strive for improvement while hoping you will join us again on your next visit to Hawaii. Thank you very much.
