The sandbar was incredibly beautiful and I was moved! We were blessed with great weather and got to see a large honu, creating wonderful memories! The guides were also very kind and easy to talk to, which left a great impression! I bought a sea band (anti-nausea band) here, and I really recommend it for those who are prone to motion sickness. I have a weak vestibular system that makes me dizzy even on airplanes, but wearing this band made the boat's swaying and even the return flight completely comfortable without any nausea!
サンドバー、とっても綺麗で感動しました!
天気にも恵まれ、大きなホヌも見られてとてもいい思い出ができました!
またガイドさんたちもとても親切で話しやすい方たちでとても印象が良かったです!
こちらで買える、シーバンド(酔い止めバンド)を購入したのですが、酔いやすい方はこちらを買うことを本当にお勧めします。
私は飛行機でもめまいがするほど三半規管が弱いですがこれをつけていたら、船の揺れはもちろん、帰りの飛行機も全く酔わずとても快適でした!

We participated in the tour on June 24 with five people. Although the pickup was early in the morning, the staff's fun talks and the detailed explanations of the tour were appreciated. Once on the boat, the captain and the friendly crew naturally brought smiles to our faces. We swam with dolphins at the two locations they guided us to, and both times we encountered dolphins, which was an emotional and thrilling moment. We also saw sea turtles several times at the surface. This was my first dolphin tour, but thanks to the enjoyable guidance from the staff, as well as the boat burgers and hula dancing, we had a wonderful time. If I come to Hawaii again, I will definitely join this tour without hesitation. Thank you to everyone at Dolphin & You.
6月24日のツアーに5人で参加しました。朝早いピックアップでしたが、スタッフ皆さんの楽しいトークやツアーの説明には丁寧さも感じました。船に乗船してからもキャプテンをはじめ楽しくて親切なスタッフクルーに笑顔が自然に出ておりました。イルカは二回ほど案内して頂いた場所で泳ぎましたが、二回ともイルカに出逢え感動と感激の瞬間を味合うことが出来ました。海亀も海面上で何回も出逢えました。今回は初めてのイルカツアーでしたが、スタッフ皆さんの楽しい引率や船上バーガー・フラダンスなど、楽しい時間を過ごさせて頂来ました。またハワイに来たら迷わすツアーに参加させて頂きます。ドルフィン&ユーの皆様有難うございました。
Thank you for your happy comments! We look forward to seeing you next time. Please come to meet the dolphins and us!
嬉しいコメントありがとうございます!是非次回もお待ちしています。イルカと私たちに会いに来てください!

When my friends decided to go to the place where the turtles are, I ended up feeling unwell and had to return to the beach. However, the guide handled everything smoothly, and my friend was able to avoid getting sick. I feel really sorry for causing trouble to everyone, but I am truly grateful to the guide. Thank you for the enjoyable time.

Chiro, thank you for joining the tour with your friend. The tide was low that day, and the water was clear, so we enjoyed a leisurely fish-watching experience in the shallow waters. The schools of striped surgeonfish were beautiful, weren't they? Recently, turtles haven't been coming into the inside area, so we have to search further out, but your friend got seasick along the way. I'm really sorry for making you swim so much. Next time, please take some motion sickness medication beforehand, and let's go on a turtle search for a rematch! I'm looking forward to seeing you again. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
チロさん、この度はお友達とお二人でツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。この日は引き潮でお水も綺麗でしたから、浅瀬をずーっとゆっくりお魚ウォッチングな感じでした。シマハギの群れが綺麗でしたね。最近はインサイドには亀が入ってきてくれないので沖まで探しに行くのですが、お友達は途中で波酔いしてしまったんですよね。いっぱい泳がせてしまってゴメンなさい。是非次回は事前に酔い止めを飲んできていただいて、リベンジで亀を探しに行きましょう!!またお会いできるのを楽しみに待っております。本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

A trip to Hawaii with my friend's family. I was the only one who wanted to swim with dolphins, so I felt anxious but decided to sign up anyway. My worries while waiting for the pickup bus were blown away by the guide's Japanese. All the participants were Japanese as well, and they were all cheerful and friendly, which made me feel even more at ease!
The one-hour ride was never boring thanks to the lively talk from our guide, Julie (a cheerful Japanese woman). The weather was great, the boat was stable, and I enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the west coast of Hawaii. I got to see plenty of dolphins, turtles, and tropical fish, which was thrilling and moving!
The staff were not only cheerful but also maintained safety properly, which made me feel secure. Typically, I am satisfied after one experience, but this time I found myself wanting to participate again.

As I cautiously lowered my feet into the transparent sea, they touched the pure white grains of coral, and I found myself in a warm, quiet, and pleasant world. The turtles are not allowed to be touched, but they swam surprisingly close, providing an experience that far surpassed any aquarium visit. The Japanese staff accompanied us, offering explanations, services, and meals without any inconvenience, and they kept us smiling and entertained throughout. I found myself wishing to work here and would love to visit again.

I participated this time because I wanted to see sea turtles. It seems that it was a day with waves, and we couldn't meet sea turtles even after going to various points, but the guide took us to different places, and we finally got to see sea turtles and swim close to them! If it weren't for the guide, we wouldn't have been taken to places we wouldn't normally go, and I'm really glad I made this request. We also got to take photos, and those photos could be saved for free, which truly became the best memory! Thank you so much!

I have participated in similar tours several times, but thanks to the good weather, this time I saw the most beautiful sea I've ever seen. The snorkeling was a bit murky, but there were plenty of fish, and I was able to see turtles, which was great. Since I joined the morning session, there was a light meal included, but it was a buffet-style, so the amount was more than just a light snack! The bone-in short ribs were incredibly delicious! Also, turtles came to swim in the shallow waters, and I was able to see them up close. I want to participate again!

Dear Tomoyuki, thank you for joining the Blue Hawaii Divers tour. The sea conditions were good that day, and we ventured out from the Keyhole. We saw a school of giant trevally swimming in circles on the heart-shaped sandy bottom, and later encountered turtles at two spots. Lucky for us, we also spotted two manta rays! While I've often seen manta rays during boat diving, this was my first time seeing them while snorkeling at Hanauma Bay. You were truly a fortunate customer.
Please do consider joining our tour again when you visit Hawaii. We are always here to welcome you back. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!

This time I participated alone.
This tour is not really meant for solo travelers. It's best suited for friends, families, or couples on their honeymoon.
However, you can only reach this place through a tour like this, so if you have the mindset of wanting to:
- Take Instagram-worthy photos,
- Not care at all about what others think even if you're alone,
- Not feel uncomfortable when asked, "Are you participating alone?"
Then I think this tour is great for you.
I personally wanted to capture the quintessential Hawaiian scenery. I joined just with that mindset, but various thoughts crossed my mind along the way. I recommend that those participating alone focus solely on enjoying the scenery!
To join a tour like this, you need to have the right mindset.
今回一人参加でした。
このツアーは一人で参加するようなツアーではないです。
友人同士、家族、新婚旅行などのカップル。
そういう方には最高のツアーだと思います。
ただ、この場所に来るにはこういうツアーでなければ行けないので
・とにかくインスタ映えするような景色を撮りたい
・自分は一人でも他人の目なんて一ミリたりとも気にしない
・やたら「一人参加?」と聞かれても嫌な思いをしない
そういう精神的な気持ちがある人ならば、このツアーはいいと思います。
自分はとにかくハワイらしい景色を撮りたい。
そういう気持ちだけで参加したのですが、途中でいろんなものが去来してしまいました。
一人で参加する人は、景色を楽しむ!という事だけを専念することをお勧めします。
こういうツアーに参加するには、それなりの気持ちが必要です。

In short, I felt that there wasn't much point in paying a high price to go unless it was during low tide. Therefore, it's best to check the tide schedule in advance before participating. This time, the shallowest spot was about 30 centimeters deep. The weather was very sunny, the sea was beautiful, and I was able to meet some sea turtles, plus the food was really delicious. I was very satisfied with that part (^^).
As for snorkeling... the deeper areas weren't very clear. I could see some fish, but...
If you expect too much from the sandbar mentioned in the guide, you might be disappointed, so it's better to do some research before joining. As for the weather, it's all about luck, luck, and more luck.
一言で言うと、結局は干潮時じゃないと高いお金払ってまで行く意味はない感じがしました。ですから潮の干潮、満潮は事前に調べて参加した方がいいです。
今回は一番浅い所で30センチぐらいでした。
とても晴れて海が綺麗でしたし、海カメさんとも出会えたし、料理もとても美味しかったです。その辺は大満足(^^)
シュノーケルになってからは・・・
深いところはあまり綺麗でなかったですね
魚は見れましたが・・・
案内にあるようなサンドバーを期待しすぎるとがっかりするのでよく調べてから参加する方がいいですね

I participated with my 5-year-old daughter and dad!
We were picked up early in the morning from a nearby hotel, and our guide, Julie, was so energetic and fun. I learned a lot of interesting facts about dolphins.
I thought I could swim, but then I realized I had never swum in the ocean with a current before. At first, I couldn't really take care of my daughter, but Julie helped watch her, and gradually I was able to use the fins and keep up (sweating a bit).
We encountered dolphins three times, with as many as ten at one point. I brought an underwater camera, but the professional photographer dove down for us and was great at getting close to the dolphins and sea turtles. So, instead of floundering around, it might be wiser to pay about $50 and enjoy being photographed, then buy the professional pictures (since you'll want them anyway).
Anyway, Julie was great at keeping us entertained, and my daughter was totally into it, even participating in the final diving competition. It became a wonderful memory!
5歳娘とパパと三人で参加しました!
早朝に近くのホテルから拾ってもらい、テンション高いジュリさんのガイドっぷりも楽しく、イルカの豆知識も勉強になりました。
泳げるつもりでしたが、考えたら潮の流れのある沖で泳いだことはなく、娘の面倒を最初はほとんど見る事が出来なかったけど、ジュリさんが娘を見てくれ、徐々にフィンを使って進めるようになり何とかついて行けました(汗)
イルカには3回遭遇出来、多い時で10頭でした。水中でも撮れるカメラ持参でしたけど、プロのカメラマンさんは潜ってくれますし、イルカやウミガメのそばに行くのも上手なので、バタバタする位なら、50ドルほど払いますが、写される事を楽しんで、プロの写真を買った方が賢明かもしれません。(どうせ、欲しくなりますから)
とにかく、楽しませるのが上手で、娘はすっかりノリノリで、最後のダイビング大会も参加する始末。
良い思い出になりました!

Our shuttle time was for 9am and we’re were picked up at 8:59am in a 12 person van. It only took 20 minutes to get to the bay but then we had to wait for 15 minutes just to park and get out. Our drivers name was Diogo and he was super friendly and nice to look at too lol :) After being fitted for our gear we walked to the entrance and paid our $7.50 per person over 13 years to get in and watched a 10 minute video about the history of the bay. It’s a little ways to walk down to the bay and can be tiring to walk back up after snorkeling but they offer shuttle service for $1.25 each way or $2.50 for the day. Take the shuttle. There’s a snack bar at the top if you want a $4 precooked hotdog but it’s better to bring your own snacks. We got into the water at 10:15am and met back up with the driver at 2pm to go back to our hotel, again he was right on time. Overall the kids thought it was fun and we would do it again. The best snorkeling is off to the left side of the beach. The water gets clearer the further you go out.

It was an early departure, and I was sleepy at the start of the tour, but the bright and detailed explanations on the bus gradually made me feel more awake. By the time we arrived at the port, I was filled with excitement to meet the dolphins.
At first, the ceremony right after departure made us, as a shy couple, a bit anxious, but the cheerful communication at just the right distance quickly warmed our hearts. By the time we started singing, there was a sense of unity within the team!
When it came time to meet the dolphins, we were lucky to encounter them right away! Within about five minutes of departure, we jumped into the sea and met the dolphins immediately!
After that, we followed the instructor's directions and swam playfully like children, chasing the dolphins. I was so excited to see those adorable dolphins!
Afterward, we returned to the boat for a commemorative photo! The team was united, and there were many honeymooners among us, making the group photo while saying "Welcome, newlyweds!" a lot of fun!
Next, we changed snorkeling spots! This time, we encountered sea turtles, which was truly moving! Personally, I found the turtles even more touching! Their cuteness was number one!
As we were heading back to the port, a pod of dolphins appeared as if to say goodbye, which was heartwarming.
After that, I fell into a deep sleep on the return bus (laughs). It was an incredibly emotional experience for just half a day! It was the best experience where I could have fun like a child with my wife!
Thank you so much!!
朝早い出発で眠い中でのツアースタートでしたが、バスの中での説明からとても明るく丁寧な説明に徐々に眠気もなくなり、港に到着するころにはイルカに会いたい気持ちでいっぱいになりました。
出港直後の儀式も最初は人見知りな夫婦としては少し不安でしたが、絶妙な距離感での明るいコミュニケーションにすぐに心が打ち解け、歌を歌う頃にはチームの一体感も生まれていました!
いざイルカとの出会いでは運よくすぐに遭遇!!
出港から5分程度で海に飛び込み、すぐにイルカと出会うこともできました!
その後はインストラクターの指示に従い、子どものように無邪気に泳ぎ、
イルカを追っていました。
本当に可愛いイルカたちにテンションマックス!
その後、船に戻り記念撮影!チームもまとまり、ハネムーンでのお客さんも
多く、みんなで新婚さんいらっしゃい!と言いながらの記念撮影がとても
楽しかったです!
その後は、シュノーケリングのスポット変更!
今度はウミガメに出会い、感動!!
私的にはカメの方が感動!
愛らしさはNO1でした!
その後、港に戻ろうとすると、まるでお別れを伝えに来たかのように
イルカの群れが現れ、胸がジーンとしました。
その後は帰りのバスで爆睡(笑)
半日とは考えられなくらいの感動体験!
子どものように妻とはしゃぐこともできた最高体験でした!
ありがとうございます!!

The ocean in Hawaii is beautiful, but I was really impressed here. Walking in the water is amazing...!
Also, the staff on the boat were fluent in Japanese and very friendly, which kept us laughing the whole time!
We encountered a turtle along the way that was quite accustomed to people and surprised us by coming close! However, it's important to note that touching the turtle is against the law, so be careful.
If you have a camera that can be used underwater, like a GoPro, definitely bring it along.
It was a very enjoyable tour!
ハワイの海自体綺麗ですが、ここはかなり感動しました。海の中を歩けるってすごい…!
また、船の中では日本語が堪能で気さくなスタッフが盛り上げてくれるので、終始笑いっぱなしでした!
途中遭遇した亀がかなり人慣れしており、自ら近づいてきて驚きました!
ただし、亀に触れることは法律違反になりますので、注意が必要です。
goproなど水中でも使えるカメラをお持ちの方は是非持参してください。
非常に楽しいツアーでした!
Aloha! I'm so happy to hear that you were able to spend your time with lots of smiles in the heavenly sea. Thank you very much for joining us. The recommended GoPro is available for rental on the day of the tour! Everyone, please take lots of wonderful photos and videos.
アロハ!天国の海で笑顔いっぱいに過ごしていただけたとお聞きするのが一番嬉しいです。ご参加本当にありがとうございます。
おすすめ頂いたGoProはツアー当日もレンタル申し込み可能! 皆さんもたくさん素敵な写真や動画撮影してくださいね。

The weather was nice, but at the beginning, the water temperature was low and it felt a bit chilly. The water level was about halfway up my shins, but by the end, it was up to my chest, so it really depends on the timing. During snorkeling, I wore a life jacket, so even though I couldn't swim, I was able to float properly. However, the area where we could see the coral suddenly became deep, and I got scared and decided to stop. They quickly came to help me with a boat, which was reassuring. The food was delicious, and I was satisfied that I could play in the sea during my free time.
天気はよかったですが、始まってしばらくは水温が低く、肌寒かったです。 水位はスネ半分くらいでしたが、終わる頃には胸の辺りまであり、本当にタイミングによるようです。 シュノーケリングではライフジャケット着用で、泳げなくてもちゃんと浮いていられましたが、珊瑚を見るエリアは急に深くなり、怖くて途中棄権しました。すぐにボートで助けてくれるので安心です。 食事も美味しく、自由時間に海で遊ぶことができ、満足でした。
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. The snorkeling point suddenly transitions from the sandbar to deep waters. Some guests, like Manami, may feel a little nervous. Next time, please muster a bit of courage and enjoy it a little more. We look forward to seeing you again!
アロハ! キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加ありがとうございます。
シュノーケルポイントはサンドバーから一転していきなり深い海となります。まなみ様のようにチョッピリドキドキされる方も。
次回はちょっぴりだけ勇気を出してもう少し楽しんでみてくださいね。お待ちしています。

I participated in the Dolphin University tour. We quickly spotted dolphins from the boat and everyone dove in!
Since there was a sequence for diving, some people at the end couldn't see them at that time. However, during the next dive, those who hadn't seen the dolphins were prioritized and guided to where the dolphins were, so all participants were able to see them!
The crew was lively, and everyone was in high spirits!
There were Japanese-speaking crew members, which made it easy to enjoy the tour without any worries.
After swimming with the dolphins, we moved to a different location for snorkeling near the coral reefs, where we could also swim with sea turtles.
Those who weren't physically strong rested on the boat, while those with more energy played in the water.
By that night, I was so satisfied with the tour that I wanted to join the Dolphin University tour again the next day.
I recommend renting a wetsuit as it helps prevent fatigue.
The photos are ones I took.

すぐに海上からイルカが見つかりみんなでダイブ!

参加者全員がイルカを見ることが出来ました!
クルーの方のノリも良く、みんなテンション Maxでした!
日本人のクルー、日本語を話せるクルーがいてるので
安心してツアーに参加し楽しめました
イルカと泳いだ後は、場所を変えて
サンゴ礁近くでシュノーケリング等を
ウミガメと一緒に泳ぐこともできました

I was able to see a sea turtle while on the boat! When we arrived at Angel's Beach, the scenery was very beautiful. The hamburger for lunch was cooked right in front of us and was delicious✨. During snorkeling, we had a great time seeing fish up close.
I accidentally dropped my GoPro while snorkeling and thought we wouldn't be able to retrieve it. However, two days later, the travel company we participated with contacted our hotel and delivered the GoPro to us. I was truly surprised and grateful. It was a wonderful experience and a great memory. Thank you very much!!
船に乗車中はウミガメに会えました!
天使の海に着くととてもきれいな

シュノーケル中にGoProを
