It wasn't a sunny day, so the water was quite cold when we got in, but we were able to enjoy a different kind of sea than Waikiki and even encountered sea turtles. The lunch on the boat was also quite delicious. After that, my father and high school students seemed to have a great time snorkeling, taking pictures of corals and sea turtles with their cameras. My mother and elementary school students enjoyed themselves with the rental floaties and paddle boats during that time. The boat didn't feel too rocky, but there were about 5 or 6 people who got seasick, so motion sickness medication might be necessary. The staff were all cheerful and fun, and they took great pictures with our cameras.
However... about two months ago, I made a reservation for the best day after checking the tides, but suddenly, less than a month before, I was told it was canceled due to a movie shoot. When I tried to book on another low tide day, I was told it was already full. I thought about canceling, but since it was the event I was looking forward to the most, I participated with faint hopes, even though it was on a king tide day. But as expected... the tide level was 160 cm, which meant the water was up to about half my face. Those who weren't good swimmers seemed to struggle. I knew we wouldn't be able to see the beautiful sandbar, but the result was too disappointing. Even though it cost over 50,000 yen, it was canceled so easily that I couldn't accept it, and now I feel like I want to try again next time, but also not...
晴天ではなかったので、海に入るとかなり冷たかったですが、ワイキキとは違う海を楽しむことができ、海亀とも出会えました。船上のランチも、なかなか美味しかったです。その後、父と高校生はシュノーケリングで、サンゴや海亀を持参したカメラで撮ったりと満喫したようです。母と小学生はその間貸し出しの浮き輪、パドルボートで楽しめました。船はそんなに揺れる感じではなかったですが、酔ってダウンしている方が5〜6人はいらっしゃったので、酔い止めは必要かも…。スタッフの方はみなさん明るく楽しく、という感じで、持参のカメラでもしっかり撮って頂きました。
ただ…二ヶ月ほど前に、潮を調べて一番良い日を予約したにもかかわらず、一ヶ月をきってから突然、映画撮影のためと言われキャンセルになり、他の潮の低い日に申し込んでも、もういっぱいですと言われ…。キャンセルしようかとも思ったのですが、一番楽しみにしていたイベントだったため、キングタイドの日でしたが、淡い期待を持って参加しました。しかしやはり…案の定…潮位は160cmの私で顔半分くらいまで…。泳ぎが得意でない人は、みなさん困っていらっしゃいました。サンドバーのあの綺麗な砂が見られないことは分かってはいたけれど、残念すぎる結果でした。5万を超える出費なのに、簡単にキャンセルされて納得いかず、次回リベンジしたいような、したくないような…

I participated with my 6-year-old son and husband the other day. Since it was our first time snorkeling, I had about half expectations, but we were well taken care of, and my son was able to see many fish that he loves, which made us very satisfied! I considered going to Hanauma Bay on our own, but given that my younger child is still small and the concerns about being at the beach for a long time and the parking lot filling up quickly, we decided to join this tour. Thank you very much. I would definitely like to participate again.
先日6歳の息子と主人で参加させて頂きました。
初めてのシュノーケリングだったので、期待半分くらいだったのですが、丁寧に見て頂き息子も大好きな魚をたくさん見ることができて大満足でした❗️
個人でハナウマベイに行くことも考えましたが、下の子がまだ小さくビーチに長時間いることや駐車場がすぐ満車になること不安などを鑑みてこちらのツアーに参加させて頂きました。
ありがとうございました。

After being picked up, the instructions began. It was early in the morning, the microphone was loud, and they were talking about dolphins in a sporty way. I wondered if I could keep up with this vibe, thinking that "Dolphin Middle School" was not just a concept but something they were serious about. However, later I realized that this morning's instruction was all meticulously planned.
The staff were very kind, and it was clear that they truly loved dolphins and marine life, showing respect for them. Although I was sleepy in the morning, I received various guidance on the bus. I learned that dolphins, like humans, can have good days and bad days, sometimes wanting to be left alone, and sometimes approaching us. It might seem obvious when you think about it, but I was able to understand things I hadn't properly considered before.
If I had fallen asleep, I think I would have struggled once on the boat. I also learned for the first time not to splash my fins or make noise. I realized that the reason I hadn't encountered turtles despite swimming many times was due to my own actions. I thought I should become someone who doesn't disturb marine life and can coexist with them.
It seems that the dolphin was in an incredibly good mood that day! I am truly grateful! At first, I thought, "What does it mean to call a dolphin a teacher?" But from the moment I met the dolphin, I quietly shouted in my heart, "Dolphin-sensei!" The dolphin was amazing. The staff were amazing too. I believe that coming to Hawaii and creating this memory is truly the best. This tour is possible because the staff love dolphins. Thank you very much!
ピックアップしてもらった後、
インストラクションがはじまり、
朝早いしマイクの音は大きいし、イル中体育会系とかいってるし、
イルカ中学って、コンセプトだけじゃなくて、本気でいってるんだ…このノリについていけるかしら…
と思っていましたが、
この朝のインストラクションも、すべて綿密に考えられているんだ、ということを後になって思いました。
スタッフのみなさん、とても親切で、なによりもイルカや海の生き物を愛しているんだ、愛していて、敬意をはらっているんだというのが伝わりました。
朝眠いけど、バスの中でいろいろと案内してもらって、
イルカ先生は人間と同じで気分がいい時もあるし、わるい時もあるし、そっとしておいてほしいときもあるし、向こうから近づいてくれることもあるし、と、
なるほど、考えてみれば当たり前のことかもしれないけど、今まできちんと考えられなかったことを、
ちゃんと教えてもらって理解できました。
多分寝てしまうと、船にのってからしんどかったと思います。
また、フィンをバタバタやらない、音をたてない、
というのを初めてしり、
今まで何回も泳いでいても、なかなかカメさんに遭遇できなったのは、自分に原因があるのだな、
もっと海の生き物に、邪魔にならなくて、一緒にいさせてもらえるようになろう、
と思えました。
さて、イルカ先生はどうやらものすごく機嫌のいい日だったようで!!
本当に感謝です!
初めは、イルカ先生って…先生ってなんだよ…
と思っていましたが、イルカ先生に会えた瞬間から、
心の中でイルカセンセー‼︎
と静かに叫んでいました。
イルカ先生最高です。
スタッフのみなさんも最高です。
ハワイにきて、この思い出ができたら、本当に最高だと思います。

The phrase "Angel's Sea" is truly fitting! The scenery was just as beautiful as the name suggests.
The weather and tide play a significant role on the day of your visit. It was great to have a morning with water levels around calf height.
Searching for sea turtles is exhilarating! The boat is impressive, so it was fine to bring a non-waterproof camera.
The guide really pumped up the excitement, so I definitely want to go again!
天使の海とはよく言ったものだ!名前に負けない景色が楽しめました。
当日は天気と潮が関係します。ふくらはぎくらいの水位となる朝が良かったです。

Last year, I had to just observe because I wasn't feeling well, so this year was my long-awaited participation! It was just amazing... Not only did I get to have a class with Dolphin Sensei, but I also swam for a long time with Professor Turtle, and I really think it changed my life. During Dolphin Sensei's class, the snorkeling was a bit fragmented, and I thought it might be physically challenging, but I was able to swim as much as I wanted during the subsequent snorkeling, and it was so much fun! I thought I might go two or three times during my stay, haha.
Oh, and the boat was upgraded, which was great! My mother was happy that it was easier for her to jump in. Our belongings didn't get wet, and it was clean, so we could enjoy ourselves without any worries.
去年参加した際、体調が悪く見学になってしまったため、今年は念願の参加でした!
もう、なんていうか最高でした…
イルカ先生に授業してもらえただけでなく、カメ大教授とも長く泳げたし、たぶん本当に人生変わったと思います。
イルカ先生の授業の時はシュノーケリングが細切れ?で、ちょっと体力的に大変かな?とも思ったのですが、その後のシュノーケリングを満足するまで泳げて楽しかった〜♡
滞在中2、3回いってもいいかもと思いました笑
そうだ!船がグレードアップしててよかったです!
母が飛び込むの楽になって喜んでました。
荷物も濡れないし、綺麗で心置きなく楽しめました(^-^)

We reserved shuttle service. We were waiting at the pick up point from 10min before the pickup time. We couldn't find the shuttle. We were waiting and I called to the office 10min later of pick up time. They said that they yelled out my name, but I didn't hear. They just left. Why not calling to me?
So, I took a taxi to get there with my money. BOB tour was canceld, because of lack of people. So, we joined to another group.
Totally lack of responsibility. I don't trust that they yelled out my name at the pickup point.

I signed up for this tour because I love dolphins.
We stopped the boat in an area where dolphins are often seen, and when I entered the water and followed the instructor, there were dolphins right below my feet!!
It felt more like seeing dolphins in the same ocean (the same space) from a distance rather than swimming with them. For someone like me who wanted to swim together, it was a bit unsatisfying.
However, with short fins and simple life jackets provided, I think this tour can be enjoyed even by those who are anxious about swimming or lack physical strength.
On the boat, the co-captain was very engaging, which made the experience enjoyable. It was also clear that the other staff members were trying to entertain the guests, which was great.
Thank you very much.
大好きなイルカと泳げるとのことでこのツアーに申し込みました。
イルカがよくいるところに船を停めて、入水しインストラクターさんについていくと足元の下の下のほうにイルカが!!
一緒に泳ぐというよりは、遠くのほうにいるイルカを同じ海の中(同じ空間)で見る感じでした。
一緒に泳ぎたかった私にとってはちょっと物足りなかったです。
ただ、フィンも短く簡易なライフジャケットがあるので泳ぎに不安がある人や体力に自信がない方でも十分に楽しめるツアーかと思います。
船上では副船長にたくさんかまって頂いて楽しむことが出来ました。他のスタッフさんもお客さんを楽しませようというのが伝わってきたのでとても良かったです。

I was able to see wild dolphins swimming in a pod for the first time. I also got to see sea turtles up close in the water... it was moving. The hamburger for lunch was delicious too!
The group I joined consisted entirely of Japanese customers. Perhaps because of that, a Japanese female crew member was there from the pickup, which made me feel at ease. I participated at the end of June, and since it was quite windy, I followed the advice of the Japanese female crew member and borrowed a wetsuit over my rash guard. As a result, the water temperature was comfortable, and I didn't feel too cold while on the boat.
By the way, it might be good to have a chamois towel (which you can use to wipe off most of the moisture and can be reused if you wring it out towards the sea) and a dry beach towel (to use as much as possible without getting wet, draping it over your back) with you. The air conditioning on the return bus is strong too...
初めて野生のイルカが群れをなして泳ぐところを見ることができました。ウミガメも海の中で、至近距離で見ることができ・・・感動。
ランチのハンバーガーも美味しかったです!
私が参加したグループは日本人のお客さんばかりでした。それもあってか?日本人女性のクルーがピックアップの時点からいてくださっていて、安心でした。
参加したのは6月末ですが、風が強かったこともあり、日本人女性クルーのアドバイスに従ってラッシュガードの上からさらにウェットスーツを借りて着ました。結果、海の水温もそれで心地よく、船上に上がっている時もあまり寒くありませんでした。
ちなみに、セームタオル一本(これで主な水分を拭き取る。海に向かって絞れればまた使えるので便利)と、乾いたビーチタオル(なるべく最後まで濡らさず背中にかけたりして使う)があると良いかもしれません。
帰りのバスも、冷房が強いですので・・・。

As in the title we definitely saw turtles on the trip. I was however disappointed with an $89 each cost associated. We were picked up and driven to the marina which is at Waikiki and could have walked there quicker. We took the early 8 am tour which departed around 8:30 and minutes later we were in the water and swimming with the turtles which was great. Outside of the turtles there wasn't much more to see. After less than an hour of snorkeling I was told to get back on the boat to depart. Ten minutes later we were exiting the boat. There was no time to enjoy the "open bar" really at all, and it was only 9 am. For the money we should have at least got some extra time on the boat cruising around, maybe a loop back toward Pearl or something. I'm not saying don't do it but we saw just as many turtles off a rented stand up board on Waikiki for $25/hr. That said, the crew was great and really did try to get people going and excited.

In the sea with the best transparency, I was able to encounter a pod of nearly 150 dolphins. The dolphins didn't just swim past us quickly; they circled around us multiple times.
They swam so close that I could clearly see their eyes, rather than just appearing small in the distance. On the contrary, I was filled with surprise and emotion, wondering if it was really okay for them to come so close.
The staff also provided strict instructions for safety, but at the same time, they kept the atmosphere lively on the boat, allowing us to have a truly enjoyable time.

Some were apprehensive about diving under the helmet to get into it but after that it's amazing as you get to see fishes and even turtles up close. You also get a fish food sponge to lure scads of fishes to you - just be careful to keep your fingers out of the way, or you may get a nibble! The safety divers guide your scooter and show you where to go (and some take video for sale later). The only possible discomfort may be if you don't equalize the pressure as you dive or ascend - this can be done several ways (such as swallowing or yawning - I couldn't get the "pinch nose and blow" method to work). Otherwise it's a blast. You also get to hang around a bit - on the boat or swimming or snorkeling - while the other groups are on the scooters.

We were picked up right on time, and it was a short drive to the harbour from our hotel in Waikiki. The staff were all very friendly, helpful and professional and the sail boat was spacious and clean. The snorkeling gear was good quality and generally fit well, although my mask leaked a little.
We saw our first turtle not long after getting in the water, and saw quite a few more thereafter. They came very close to us as they surfaced to breath, making for incredible photo opportunities.
This was an amazing experience and anyone visiting the island and considering this activity will not be disappointed!

I tried snorkeling for the first time at a sandbar known as the "Angel Sea." I'm not a great swimmer, and I felt nervous when the staff said, "Just think of it as training!" But I put on the snorkel and set off. The corals and fish I saw for the first time were so beautiful... and just as I was getting used to it, it was over. I had a bit of anxiety, but wearing a life jacket helped me float, and the staff was watching over us, so I'm glad I participated.

At the sandbar, you can practice snorkeling and play volleyball. The sandbar is shallow and there are hardly any fish, so we went to a deeper part of the sea with coral reefs to snorkel. During the move, hamburgers were served. They were delicious. It might be a bit different from the typical barbecue image. I was satisfied because I got to swim with sea turtles while snorkeling.
サンドバーで、シュノーケリングの練習や、バレーボールなどをして遊べます。サンドバーは遠浅で魚はほとんどいないので、途中、サンゴ礁のある海の深い所へ行って、シュノーケリングします。移動中、ハンバーガーが振舞われます。美味しかったです。バーベキューのイメージとはちょっと違うかも?シュノーケリングでウミガメと泳げたので満足です。

I think there are other tours like the Angel's Sea and Heaven's Sea tour, but this one departs in the morning, allows you to have lunch, and you can also go snorkeling at different locations, so I believe it's a very satisfying tour! It was great when the weather was clear, but it started to get worse along the way and became cold, so I think it's a good idea to bring a towel and a change of clothes. Sunscreen is a must!
天使の海、天国の海ツアーは他にもあるとは思うのですが、朝出発で、お昼も食べられて、場所を移してシュノーケリングもできるので、色々満足できるツアーだと思います!
晴れている時は良かったんですが、途中天候が悪化してきて、寒くなってきたので、タオルや着替えを持って行くと良いと思います。日焼け止めは必須です!

I was able to see a sea turtle swimming from the boat, and we also went snorkeling.
The snorkeling was done in a line with everyone, so we couldn't take our time to look around. Also, the weather from the previous day definitely had an impact.
As for the ocean, I preferred Kailua Beach, but the various explanations and insights were interesting!
船の上からウミガメが泳いでいるのが見えましたし、
シュノーケリングもできました。
シュノーケリングはみんなで列になってザーっとやったかんじで、
ゆっくりは見れなかったです。
あとやっぱり前日の天気にも影響されてしまいますね。
海でいえば、カイルアビーチのほうがよかったのですが、
いろいろ解説があったりそういうのが面白かったです!

I had done dolphin watching before, but I had never swum with them, so I decided to participate. The dolphins were only there for a moment, but I was close enough to touch a sea turtle! It was so moving! I also tried stand-up paddleboarding for the first time, and even though I was wobbling, I managed to stand up and ended up playing until the very end while other groups returned to the boat. The energetic staff and photographer made the time fly by. When I asked people who have been to Hawaii, they mentioned that this experience is quite famous? I heard that it can be hard to make a reservation... I think I understand why it's so popular!
イルカウォッチングはした事はありましたが、一緒に泳ぐ!はした事がなかったので参加。イルカは一瞬でしたがウミガメは触れる距離に!感動でした!SUPも初めてやりましたがぐらぐらしながらも立て、他のグループが船に戻る中最後まで遊んでしまいました。テンション高いスタッフ、カメラマンであっという間の時間でした。ハワイに行った人に聞くと結構有名?予約取れなくて…という話も聞きました。人気の理由がわかった気がします!
ALOHA!! Thank you for participating in Dolphin University! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the entire tour. Please feel free to visit Dolphin Middle School and University again! MAHALO!!
ALOHA!! この度はイルカ大学にご参加いただきありがとうございました! ツアー全体を通じてお楽しみいただけたようで幸いです。 また是非イルカ中学・大学に遊びにいらしてくださいね! MAHALO!!

I was moved to see a pod of dolphins and sea turtles, and the cheerful crew made the experience enjoyable on board! I was very grateful that they also took care of my 4-year-old daughter, who was scared of the ocean and stayed on the boat, and she had a great time too!
イルカの群れにも海亀にも会えて感動した他、陽気なクルーの皆様が盛り上げて楽しませてくれたので船上でも楽しく過ごせました!海を怖がり船に残った4歳の娘の面倒も見て頂けてとてもありがたかったし娘も楽しめました!

It was very beautiful, and I was surprised when it suddenly appeared in the middle of the ocean. The turtles were also searching hard, and I was able to see a few. However, the snorkeling was a bit disappointing because the water clarity wasn't very good. I often dive in Okinawa, and I feel that the clarity there is significantly better. It might depend on the location, though.
とてもきれいでした、海の真ん中に突然現れて驚きました、亀も一生懸命探してくれて何匹か見られました、ただ、シュノーケルは海の透明度があまりよくなく少し残念でした、沖縄でよくダイビングするのですが、透明度は沖縄の方が数段いいなと感じました、場所にもよるのかもしれませんが。
