2.5-Hour Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour, Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

Best Experience on Oahu

Reviewed by: Mike Phillips

Fantastic experience with a first rate crew. Well worth the value for three hours of snorkeling, sea turtles, spinner dolphins, colorful fish, and great sailing. Crew put safety first and had fun with everyone on the boat. Would go back in a heartbeat! My nine year old says this was her best experience of the vacation!! Thanks to the Holokai crew!

Dolphins! Sea turtles! Rays! イルカ！ウミガメ！エイ！

Reviewed by: マツイ

I participated in a monitor tour in July 2017, and to sum it up, it was definitely the right choice! The photos are small since they were taken from outside, but I actually got to dive and swim with dolphins, and I also encountered stingrays! The sea turtles were swimming slowly, so I got to play alongside them (ﾟωﾟ). This is something you can't do on your own, so I think that's the charm of the tour.

However, since you don't go out too far, if you're mainly thinking about coral and colorful fish, you might be a little disappointed. Also, depending on the weather, the visibility can sometimes be low. It seemed particularly beautiful on the day I went, but since this is nature, there's not much you can do about it.

The staff operating the tour were all very kind, and I truly believe that even those who are anxious about swimming can have a great time! I think this is a recommended activity for anyone considering a marine tour.

2017年の7月にモニターツアーとして参加しましが、結論から言うと大正解でした！
写真は外からなので小さいですが、実際に潜ってイルカと一緒に泳げましたし、エイにも会えました
！ウミガメはゆっくり泳いでたので、隣で一緒に遊泳しました(ﾟωﾟ)これは個人でできることではないので、ツアーの魅力かと思います

ただ、あまり沖に出ないので、サンゴとかカラフルなお魚をメインに考えてると、少しがっかりかもしれません。また、天気によっては透明度が低い時もあるみたいです。本日は特に綺麗だったみたいですが、こればかりは自然が相手なので仕方ないですけどね

当日大学を運営しているスタッフの方も親切な方ばかりで、泳ぎに不安のある方も本当に楽しめると思います！
マリンツアーを迷っている方にはオススメのアティビティだと思います

Dr. Dolphin イルカ先生

Reviewed by: ハル☆

I had always dreamed of swimming with dolphins, so I was really looking forward to this tour! The morning was very early, so I was a bit sleepy (laughs), but our guide, Julie, was full of energy and really entertaining.

We spotted the dolphins about five minutes after getting on the boat! I heard that sometimes it can take hours to find them, so we were lucky. I was very satisfied to see so many dolphins!

I was also happy to see a turtle during the snorkeling afterward!

I would love to join again when I come back to Oahu!

Just one thing... if I could share my opinion, the photo prices are a bit high, so I think it would be easier to buy them if they were a bit more affordable!

イルカと一緒に泳ぐのが夢だったのでとても楽しみにして、こちらのツアーに参加しました☆朝がとっても早かったので…眠かったですけど(笑)案内してくれたジュリーさんがとっても元気でテンション高くて面白かったです｡

船に乗って五分ぐらいでイルカ先生を発見!！見つからない時は何時間も探すみたいなので、運が良かったみたい。
沢山のイルカちゃんが見れて大満足☆

その後のシュノーケルでカメちゃんも見れて幸せ☆

またオアフ島に来たら参加したいです☆

一つだけ…意見を言わせて貰うと、写真販売があるんだけど、値段がもうちょい手頃だと買いやすいかと思います！

I challenged myself to swim with wild dolphins, but due to the cloudy weather, I only saw one far away. It was murky and hard to see, but I was glad to have encountered it. I did see a pod, but it was disappointing that I couldn't see them up close. I'm glad I had the unique experience of eating hamburgers and dancing.

野生のイルカと泳げるというので挑戦しましたが、曇りというのもあり一匹だけ遠くに見えました。濁っていてわかりにくかったですが、会えてよかったです。群れには会えたのですが近くで見れなかったのは残念でした。ハンバーガーを食べたり踊ったりなかなか出来ない体験が出来て良かったです。

So Many Fish!!!

Reviewed by: Brian

I want to start this review by saying that Kieko (our guide) picked us up at our hotel and I was not in the right pick up area. She was actually walking around calling out my name and found me. I cannot thank her enough!!!

The tour was about a half day long - we went in the morning, which I would recommend because it can get crowded at Hanauma as the day goes on.

We were able to lock up our valuables while we were in the water. The tram ride down and back up to the parking lot was awesome

As for the snorkelling - it was AMAZING. I cannot believe how many different species of marine life we saw. So much fun. I did not want to get out of the water!

A dreamlike, enjoyable time. 夢のような楽しい時間

Reviewed by: KOA

In a word, it was an unforgettable time like a dream. The staff were all very service-oriented! With their rich experience, we encountered a pod of dolphins shortly after setting sail. That day, we were lucky enough to observe two pods of dolphins as we splashed down twice. The dolphins swam around us for a long time, allowing us to take beautiful photos with our personal waterproof cameras.

There was also plenty of time to enjoy activities like kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding, making it a thoroughly enjoyable tour. The dedicated photographer not only took pictures but also kept the laughter going during the boat ride thanks to him. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to participate again and see sea turtles up close.

ひと言でいうと、夢のような忘れられない時間でした。
スタッフさんみんなサービス精神旺盛！経験も豊富なので、出航して割とすぐにイルカの群れに出逢えました。この日は運良く2回着水して2群れのイルカを観察することができました。イルカもまた私たちの周辺を長い時間行ったり来たりしてくれたため、個人の防水カメラでもキレイに写真が撮れました。
その後カヤックやスタンドアップパドルなどのアクティビティを楽しむ時間もたっぷりあって、十二分に楽しめるツアーでした。
専属のカメラマンは写真を撮ってくれるだけでなく、行き帰りの船内は彼のおかげで笑い声は絶える事がありませんでした。
また今度ハワイに行く機会があったら、再度参加してウミガメも是非間近で見てみたいと思います。

It was fun. 楽しかったです

Reviewed by: むさごん

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…

Dolphin Sensei!! The best!! イルカ先生‼︎最高です‼︎

Reviewed by: Kim

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。
イルカを愛してるスタッフのみなさんだからこそ、できるツアーだと思います。

Reviewed by: aice

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！

Snorkeling in the sea with dolphins. イルカと一緒の海でスノーケル

Reviewed by: chi-

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 both dolphins and sea turtles! イルカもウミガメも見れました！

Reviewed by: たけたけ

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・・・。

Hawaii Nautical 2-Hour Waikiki Turtle Snorkel Sail - Morning & Afternoon Tours [Apr-Nov]

We did See Turtles!

Reviewed by: Troy

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.
