イルカ中学 野生のイルカ&ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ 高速ボートでイルカ遭遇率アップ!<少人数制/ワイキキ&コオリナ送迎可/日本語/ランチ付き>

Wonderful memories!!! 素晴らしい思い出!!!

Reviewed by: とんきち

I participated with my 7-year-old son. We had been to Hawaii several times, but I thought we should have joined the dolphin tour earlier. On the day of the tour, the weather was perfect, and we happily boarded the boat. My son was a bit scared of the boat, but perhaps because he took motion sickness medication before leaving the hotel, he didn't get seasick and we arrived at the dolphin spot. He had no worries about snorkeling or swimming, so we jumped right into the water! The marine blue was crystal clear, even at depths of over 10 meters. Just swimming in this transparent sea felt amazing. Then, when the guide signaled, a group of dolphins immediately appeared before our eyes. Dolphins swimming in the water and leaping above the surface! It was astonishing and moving! I peered into the water multiple times to keep up with the guide's signals, and each time, I saw dolphins swimming gracefully. Just when my son and I were a bit tired, the signal to change spots came. As we moved to the next location by boat, we saw many sea turtles and small fish. It felt like we had entered a different world. Without taking a break, we continued swimming and watching the fish, and before we knew it, it was time to head back. We felt so disappointed; we wanted to enjoy it all day long. That was our wish, and I definitely want to participate again next time. It was an activity we should not miss. Thank you very much!

7歳の息子と参加しました。
何回かハワイには来てましたが、初めてイルカ中学に参加してもっと早くに参加しておけば良かったと思いました。
参加当日は、絶好の天気で気持ち良くボートに乗り込みました。息子は、ボートを少し怖がってましたが、酔い止めをホテル出発時に飲んでいたためか、船酔いすることもなくイルカスポットに到着。シュノーケルや泳ぎに関しては、全く不安がなかったので直ぐに海の中へ!10M以上の深さの中でも海底まで透き通るマリンブルー。この透き通った海を泳ぐだけでも、最高の気分。そうすると、ガイドの方から合図があると、沢山のイルカたちが直ぐに目に飛び込んできました。海の中で泳ぐイルカの集団や海面を飛び交うイルカの集団!なんなんだ!驚きと感動!ガイドさんの合図に遅れないように何回も海の中を覗くと何回もイルカたちがスイスイと泳いでいるのが目に飛び込んできました。息子も私も少し疲れたところで、スポット変更の合図。次のスポットに船で移動すると、次はウミガメや小さな魚たちが沢山目に入ってきた。違う世界に来た気分である。時間いっぱい休むことなく、泳ぎ続け魚たちを見ていると、あっという間に帰る時間になってしまいました。思いっきり残念な気分。一日中でも楽しみたかったのが、息子と私の思いでした。是非次回も参加したいし、参加すべきアクティビティでした。
本当にありがとうございました!

サンドバー キャプテンブルース 天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも!<午前・午後/日本語クルー>

Breathtaking view! 絶景!

Reviewed by: F.F.

I experienced the sea of paradise. The scenery was wonderful. The weather was great, and the colors of the sea and sky were cobalt blue, with the green of the Coral Mountains and the white sandbar. It was truly magnificent.
The muffins for a light snack were delicious, and I had plenty of time for snorkeling, which was fun.
The only disappointment was that I didn't encounter a single sea turtle. But that's nature, so it can't be helped.

天国の海を実感しました。素晴らしい景色でした。お天気がよかったのもあって、海と空の色はコバルトブルー。コウラル山脈のグリーン。白いサンドバー。本当に見事でした。
軽食のマフィンもおいしくて、シュノーケリングもたっぷり時間があって楽しかったです。
残念なのは、ウミガメに1匹も遭遇しなかったこと。自然のことだから仕方ありませんね。

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング 日本語ガイドが海の世界へご案内<シュノーケルセット/終日>

The guide was very knowledgeable about Hanauma Bay and really interesting. ガイドさんがハナウマ湾に詳しくすごく面白かった

Reviewed by: Miku

We were both completely unable to swim, which made us anxious, but we were able to borrow life jackets and fins, and received detailed safety instructions, which made us feel secure. The guide was very knowledgeable about the sea and took us to places that other tours or individuals wouldn't go, where we were able to see sea turtles, schools of fish, and large octopuses, which was truly impressive. This is definitely a tour you should participate in.

夫婦共にまったく泳げず不安でしたが、ライフセーバーやひれ等セットを借りることができ安全面の説明を詳しく説明を受け安心できました。
またガイドさんが海にかなり詳しく、他のツアーや個人では行かれないような場所にまで連れて行って下さり、海がめや、魚群、大きな蛸等が見られ感動しました。
絶対参加したほうが良いツアーです。

Best excursion!

Reviewed by: Tracy Arnett

This was hands down our favorite excursion on the island! Fantastic Crew, great food, fun music, great snorkeling, and lovely boat ride. We went with my mom and our 5 year old son. Both of them chose not to snorkel and still had a blast. Extra bonus, they have a photographer who took tons of photos (even underwater!) at the cost of $40 for the entire flash drive. Really great time! Highly recommend!! We will be back :-)

サンドバー天使の海 シュノーケリング&ウミガメウォッチクルーズ 船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き!<午前/日本語クルー>

It exceeded my expectations! 期待以上でした!

Reviewed by: スーパープラム

We arrived after picking up at about three hotels with a large bus shared with various tour companies, which took around an hour. Prices seem to vary, but it looks like around $110 is the standard if lunch is included.

At the end of March, the wind was strong, but we were fortunate with the weather, and we could see the sandbar from quite a distance. If it weren't for the strong winds, it seems we could have set up a net for beach volleyball.

Our guide, Yukiko, who was exclusively for Japanese guests, was truly wonderful and gave us a lot of energy. She took many photos for us, directing us on poses that we wouldn't have thought of ourselves, and even if we did, it would have been difficult to ask someone else to do it (laughs). The unique way she captured us made the photos we took there incredibly valuable. I am grateful for the enjoyable time we shared. Despite doing the same thing multiple times every day, she was never mechanical; you could tell she was genuinely enjoying taking the photos... she was a person with heart. I aspire to be like her.

As for the snorkeling, even though it was my first time, it turned out to be a wonderful experience suitable for a graduation celebration with my 12-year-old child. We saw coral reefs for the first time, colorful fish, and even swam alongside a sleeping sea turtle for a while. I honestly didn't expect to be so moved by snorkeling. There were a few times when seawater got in my mouth or ears, which was bothersome, but I managed to get through it and felt a sense of accomplishment.

When we got back on the boat, the delicious aroma suddenly made me feel hungry. The hamburgers that the captain grilled were just the right weight—not too heavy, not too shabby, with perfect seasoning and cooking. They were the best hamburgers I've ever had. It got cold with the wind, but they quickly prepared warm cocoa, tea, and coffee, which I found very thoughtful. Since tea is available, it might be a good idea to bring some snacks along.

However, I do want to mention one issue... the toilet was difficult to flush, and since you have to put the paper in a bucket, the smell became quite strong towards the end. Still, I was grateful that there was a toilet.

On the way back, I felt even colder than on the way there. Couples who came lightly without beach towels looked quite cold. A wet towel cools down even more in the cold air, so having an extra towel would be better.

Although I had visited Hawaii many times, this was my first time participating in this. It is a bit pricey, but I would definitely like to join again.

They provided life jackets and fins for small children, and everyone was able to enjoy themselves! As long as they can kick their legs, they are fine. Although the elderly didn't snorkel, they were enjoying themselves up to their knees at the practice point in shallow water.

I think people of all ages, from small children to the elderly, can have fun. While I was satisfied with the waters of the North Shore and Hanauma, the colors of the sea here are different. It's definitely worth seeing!

現地ではいろんなツアー会社の方と混載の大型バスで3か所ほどホテルを回ってピックアップ後、小一時間ほどで到着しました。値段にはバラつきがありそうですが、ランチ付きだと大体110ドル前後が主流のようです。
3月下旬で風は強かったですが、天気にも恵まれかなり遠くからサンドバーは見えていました。
強風がなければ、ネットを張ってビーチバレーが出来たようです。

日本人オンリーの船のガイドさんのユキコさんは本当に素敵な方で、パワーをもらえました。
写真を撮って頂いたのですが、何枚もポージングを指示して下さり、自分達では考え付かない、また考えついても他人にこちらからお願いしづらい(笑)かなりマニアックな撮り方で、ここで撮って頂いた何枚もの写真だけでも価値があると思っています。楽しい時間を共有して戴き感謝してます。同じ事を一日に何回も毎日毎日されているのに、ちっとも事務的でなく、楽しんで撮って頂いているのがわかるというか・・・心のある方でした。
見習いたいと思います。

そして、本題のシュノーケルは、初めてだったにも関わらず、12歳の子供との卒業記念に相応しい素敵な体験となりました。
初めて見る珊瑚礁、カラフルな魚達、眠っているウミガメが起きてしばらく一緒に泳ぐことも
出来ました。シュノーケルでここまで感激出来るとは、正直思っていませんでした。
何度か海水が口に入ったり、耳に水が入って気になったりしましたが、なんとかやり遂げられて達成感もありました。

疲れて船に上がると香ばしい香りで急に空腹を感じました。
キャプテンが焼いて下さったハンバーガーは重すぎず、ショボすぎず、塩加減も焼き加減も素晴らしく、最高においしいハンバーガーでした。
風に当たっていると寒くなったのですが、温かいココアや紅茶、コーヒーをすぐ用意して下さっていて、本当にかゆいところに手が届いているなあと、感心しました。
お茶が飲めるので、おやつを持って行かれても良いかもしれません。

ただ、一つだけ困ったことをお知らせすると・・・トイレの流し方が難しいのと、ペーパーを
バケツに入れなければならないので臭いが後半はきつかったです。
それでも、トイレがあるのはありがたかったですけれど。

帰りのバスは、行き以上に寒さを感じました。
バスタオルを持ってこないで身軽に来ていたカップル達は相当寒そうでした。
体を拭いて濡れたバスタオルは冷気でもっと冷えるので、もう一枚別のバスタオルがある方が
ベターです。

ハワイは何度も何度も訪れていたのに初めての参加でした。
お値段はしますが、またぜひ参加したいです。

小さいお子さん達のライフジャケットや足ひれも用意されていて、ちゃんとみんな楽しめていましたよ!バタ足が出来れば大丈夫です。
シュノーケルはさすがにされてませんでしたが、浅瀬の練習のポイントではおばあちゃんも膝まで浸かって楽しんでおられました。

小さい子からご年配の方まで、楽しめると思います。
ノースショアやハナウマの海でも十分満足していましたが、海の色がまた違います。
一見の価値ありですよ!

We found this because I cannot scuba or snorkel and were pleasantly surprised! We had a good time and an excellent group of guides helping us along. I was nervous but they put my mind at ease and I greatly enjoyed seeing all the fish and the sea turtles! They even had snacks for us on the boat.
Thanks for giving me an experience thought I would never get to have. Would definitely recommend!

サンドバー天使の海 シュノーケリング&ウミガメウォッチクルーズ 船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き!<午前/日本語クルー>

Completely different from what I imagined. 想像と全く違う

Reviewed by: ララハワイ

I participated at the end of November.
I had been looking at the photos on this site, so it was very different from what I imagined.
First of all, each tour company has its own designated area, and the area for this tour company was just a shallow beach that looked nothing like the photos.

Perhaps due to the rain, the sea was murky, and the water depth was about 1 meter.
The water depth reached up to my stomach, as I am 168 centimeters tall.
It was cold due to the bad weather, and I was enduring while getting into the sea.

I would have appreciated a comment stating that in bad weather, the scenery would be different from the sandbar shown in the photos.

11月末に参加しました。
こちらのサイトの写真を見てたので、想像と違い過ぎました。
まず、ツアー会社ごとに仕切っているエリアがあり、こちらのツアー会社で仕切っているエリアは全く写真とは違うただの浅めのビーチでした。

雨のせいか海は濁っていて、水深も深く1メートルほどありました。
水深は、身長168センチのわたしの胃のあたりまであります。
悪天候で寒くて、我慢しながら海に入ってました。

悪天候の場合、こちらのツアーでは写真のサンドバーへとは異なる風景になりますと、一言コメント欲しかったです。

Thank you very much for participating in the tour. However, I sincerely apologize that the experience did not meet your expectations due to the bad weather.

The conditions at the sandbar are greatly affected by the tides, and we have included a link on the tour page to check the tide schedule. I apologize for any disappointment caused to customers who may have imagined a different experience based on the promotional photos.

We will strive to improve the tour page and our services based on your valuable feedback. Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience with us.

Reviewed by: 松々ファミリー

About two weeks before departing for Hawaii, I wanted to participate in a sandbar tour, but everywhere I searched was fully booked. I finally found this tour, which had a reasonable price and availability, so I didn't have high expectations. However, once I participated, the boat was impressive, and the staff's service was very satisfying. We got to see many sea turtles and had the long-awaited sandbar experience, leaving my whole family very happy.

 ハワイ出発がの2週間ほど前から、サンドバーツアーに参加したいと思いつつ予約を取ろうとしたところ検索ですぐに出てくるところはどこも予約がいっぱいでした。
 やっと見つけたこちらのツアーは価格も安めだし空きがあるしで、実はあまり期待はしていませんでした。
 実際参加してみると船は立派だし、スタッフの対応も大変満足できるものでした。内容的にもたくさんのウミガメに会え待望のサンドバー体験のでき家族全員大満足でした。

The weather was not favorable. 天候に恵まれず><

Reviewed by: りーー

It was a cloudy and windy day from the morning, and it was cold. Everyone was shivering on the boat (laughs). Still, thanks to the very fun guide and crew, everyone seemed to be smiling and having a great time! We could see some sea turtles here and there. The coldness remained at the sandbar as well... Everyone cautiously changed into their swimsuits and entered the water, but it was still cold (laughs). Just as a light rain started to fall, the chill increased, but since we came all this way, we decided to challenge ourselves with snorkeling! The water was a bit murky, but we were still able to see coral and various beautiful fish, which made us satisfied! We were really hungry, so the sandwiches and snacks that tasted like Doritos after returning to the boat were very delicious. I definitely wanted to participate on a nice weather day, but this became a good memory in its own way. I was worried that the morning-only tour might feel insufficient, but I was completely satisfied even with the short time! After that, we returned to Waikiki and were able to do some shopping, so I felt like we used our time effectively. As mentioned in everyone's reviews, the return bus can be chilly since you are wet, so a jacket is essential, and a bath towel is a must! Since there were just two of us, we brought two towels, but we each used one and got wet, so I thought it would have been nice to have one more for covering up on the return bus.

朝から曇っていて風も強く、寒い1日でした。みんな船内でブルブル震えていました(笑)
それでもとっても楽しいガイドさんやクルーの皆さんのおかげで皆笑顔で楽しそうでした!
ウミガメもチラホラ見えました。サンドバーについても寒いのは変わらず・・・。
みんな恐る恐る水着になり、海へ入っていきましたがやっぱり寒い(笑)
ちょうど小雨も降ってきたので寒さ倍増でしたが、せっかく来たのでシュノーケルに挑戦!
海の中はにごった感じでしたが、それでも珊瑚やいろんな綺麗なお魚を見る事ができ満足でした!
お腹ぺこぺこだったので船に戻ったあとのサンドイッチとドリトスみたいなお菓子がとっても美味しく感じました。
天気の良いときにもちろん参加したかったのですが、これはこれで良い思い出になりました。
午前のみのツアーで、物足りないのかなー?と心配でしたが、全然短い時間でも満足でした!
そのあとまたワイキキに戻り、お買い物できたので時間が有効に使えるなーと思いました。
皆さんのレビューにもあるように、帰りのバスは自分が濡れていることもあり冷えますので
上着はもちろん、バスタオルは必須です!私達は2人でしたので2枚持って行きましたが、
それぞれ1枚ずつ使って濡れてしまったので、帰りのバスでのひざかけ用にもう1枚あれば良かったなーと思いました。

イルカ大学 イルカウォッチング&シュノーケリングクルーズ イルカと泳ぐプランも!マリンアクティビティも充実<ランチ付き/日本語/ワイキキ&コオリナ送迎可>

Dolphin University is the best! イルカ大学最高!

Reviewed by: はちさん

Last year, I graduated from Dolphin Middle School, and since I had such a great time, I enrolled in college this year. The staff member Emi was very cheerful and energetic, full of adrenaline from early in the morning. After listening to the safety briefing, we arrived at Waianae Boat Harbor in about an hour.

As we boarded the boat and headed north, we encountered dolphins multiple times. We could see them jumping and spinning in the distance, playing energetically, which heightened our expectations. Before long, we reached the dolphin point and jumped into the sea.

Following closely behind the staff, a spinner dolphin swam right past us! I was so surprised that I didn't have time to take a photo. The dolphins quickly disappeared, so it seemed many people missed seeing them.

We quickly moved to another point by boat, heading further north along the west coast. When we got the go-ahead to jump into the water, we encountered a large pod of dolphins! Dozens of them were swimming below and surfacing for air. We could even hear their calls.

Several pods came alternately, so it seemed everyone on the tour was able to see them this time. We even had time to take photos. The pictures included here were taken with a compact camera.

After the dolphin lesson concluded and we were about to leave the point, the dolphins came to say goodbye! They swam close to the boat and stayed with us for a while. It was incredibly moving!

Next, we headed to the turtle professor's point. As soon as we arrived, the turtle professor came to greet us. We were really lucky on this tour!

After that, we swam with many colorful tropical fish, tried stand-up paddleboarding and canoeing, and jumped into the sea. We attempted stand-up paddleboarding, but it was challenging to stand and paddle. Although it was a short time, I was very satisfied since I had wanted to try it at least once.

By this time, we were all very hungry. It was the perfect timing for lunch. We had cheeseburgers, snacks, and juice.

Finally, we danced the hula with the staff and graduated safely! We received graduation souvenirs. There were a few small kids around ten years old, but they seemed to be swimming hard. They received a special reward at the end.

On the way back, I heard voices saying, "That was great!" Whether or not you see dolphins can make a difference, but I was truly satisfied and would highly recommend this tour to everyone. Above all, the staff were bright and energetic! Always positive!

昨年イルカ中学を卒業し、とても楽しかったので、今年は大学に入学しました。
とても明るく元気なスタッフえみさん、早朝からアドレナリン全開です。一通りの注意事項を聞いて、1時間ほどでワイアナエボートハーバーに到着。
ボートに乗り込みしばらく北へ進む途中、何度もイルカに遭遇。遠くの方でジャンプしたりスピンしたりと元気に遊んでいる様子を見ることができ、期待が高まります。
そうこうしているうちにイルカポイントに到着。急いで海に飛び込みます。
スタッフさんのすぐ後ろについていると、目の前すぐ近くをハシナガイルカが通り過ぎて行きました!ビックリして写真を撮る間がありませんでした。
イルカはあっという間にどこかへ行ってしまったので、見逃した人も多かったようです。
すぐにボートで別ポイントに移動。西海岸をさらに北へ進みます。
GOサインが出て海に飛び込むと、今度はイルカの大きな群れが!!数十頭の群れが、下の方を泳いでいたり、息継ぎのために上に上がってきたり。鳴き声を聞くこともできました。
群れも幾つかが交互にやってきてくれたので、今回はツアーのみんなが見ることができたようです。写真を撮る余裕もありました。掲載の写真はコンデジで撮ったものです。
イルカ先生の授業が終わり、ポイントを離れようとした時、なんとイルカ先生がお別れのご挨拶に来てくれました。ボートのすぐ近くまで来て、しばらく一緒に泳いでくれていました。大感激!
次はカメ教授のポイントへ。着いて早々、カメ教授がご挨拶に来てくれました。今日のツアーは本当にラッキー!!
その後はたくさんの色とりどりの熱帯魚と泳いだり、スタンドアップパドルやカヌー、ジャンプして海に飛び込んだり。私たちはスタンドアップパドルに挑戦しましたが、立つことも難しく立ってから漕ぐのも大変。短い時間でしたが一度やってみたかったので大満足です。
この頃にはお腹ぺこぺこ。良いタイミングで給食の時期です。チーズバーガーとスナックとジュースをいただきました。
最後にスタッフのみなさんとフラダンスを踊って、
無事卒業!卒業記念品をいただきました。10歳くらいの小さい子も何人かいたけど、頑張って泳いでいたようです。最後に特別なご褒美をもらっていました。
帰り道「良かったね〜」って声が口々に聞こえてきました。イルカに会えるかどうかにもよりますが、本当に大満足、みんなにおすすめしたいツアーです。何よりスタッフさんが明るくて元気!いつも前向き!

On March 29, I participated in a cruise with snacks included. It was my return day, but since I could get back to Waikiki in the morning, it was great to make effective use of my time instead of wandering around aimlessly. I was able to see many turtles, and the sandbar was beautiful because the weather was nice. My nearly 80-year-old mother joined me, and the ship's guide was kind and considerate. However, at the point of disembarking from the ship, the water came up to around her waist, so she decided not to get off. (It’s only knee-deep a little further in, but even without snorkeling, a swimsuit is necessary.)

3月29日、軽食付きのクルーズに参加しました。帰国日でしたが、午前中にワイキキに戻れるので、下手にウロウロするより時間を有効に使えてよかったです。カメさんもたくさん見ることができたし、天気がよかったのでサンドバーも美しかったです。
80歳近い母も一緒でしたが船のガイドさんは親切で、気をつかってくれました。ただ、船から下りるところだけ、腰の辺りまで水につかってしまうので、母は下りるのを断念しました。(少し歩けばひざ下の深さですが、シュノーケリングをしなくても下は水着が必要です)

サンドバー天使の海 シュノーケリング&ウミガメウォッチクルーズ 船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き!<午前/日本語クルー>

A valuable experience often featured on TV programs. TV番組でもよく取り上げられる貴重な体験

Reviewed by: Tettu

It seems that there have been more TV program shoots recently, and it's a place that often gets featured. Since it's a bit away from the beach, you can take interesting photos. The tour bus can be cold inside, so you'll need something to wear over your clothes. For those renting a car, it's recommended to stop by Kailua or Hawaii Kai on the way back.

最近TV番組のロケが増えたようで、よく取り上げられる場所。
浜から少し離れた場所なので、写真を撮っても面白く撮れます。
ツアーバスは車内が寒いので、羽織るものが必要です。
レンタカーの方は帰りにカイルアやハワイカイなどに寄れるので、こちらの方がオススメかな。

You can enjoy it even with children. 子連れでも楽しめます

Reviewed by: tama

We had children aged 4 and 5 with us, but there was a proper seating area on the boat, and life jackets were provided, which made us feel safe. We were able to see turtles, and they also lent us floating poles for snorkeling, making it enjoyable even with small children. We would love to participate again.

4歳、5歳の子連れでしたが
船にはきちんと座れるスペースがあり
ライフジャケットも用意されたりと
安心です。
亀も見られたし、シュノーケルの際は浮くポールも貸して下さり、小さい子連れでも
楽しめます。また参加したいです。

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

Great staff, excursion average

Reviewed by: Lisa

Staff was very friendly and helpful. When we got to the location, was expecting a little more based on what I read on the site. While we did see a couple turtles, they were few and far between. Also not a lot of fish. There were scuba divers in the same spot which made it tricky.

Afterwards, they took us out for about 30 minutes which was great.

I know the snorkeling is sparse on Waikiki so everyone is going to the same spots. Something I wasn't used to.

Tip
Fins are a must. They don't provide them.

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー 貸切プランあり<半日>

The best experience for three generations! 三世代で最高の体験!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

This trip to Hawaii was a three-generation adventure. The kids (ages 6 and 7) and my parents (both over 60) experienced snorkeling for the first time. Initially, I planned to go out to the reef alone, but after hearing Chieko's encouragement, we all decided to give it a try! In the end, only my sister, my nephew, and I made it out to the reef, but Chieko's heartfelt desire to show us something special really came through (tears). The group that went out to the reef was with Dan. Dan was incredibly kind and held my nephew's hand the whole way. Fortunately, we were able to see two large turtles. The only disappointing part was that my GoPro froze halfway through, so I couldn't capture the moments (tears). I really wanted to film us swimming together!!! I'll save that for next time. Thank you, Chieko and Dan, for all your help this time. I definitely want to ask for your assistance again. Thank you very much.

今回のハワイ旅行は三世代。子供(6歳と7歳)と両親(二人とも60過ぎ)はシュノーケルが初体験。はじめは私だけが沖までいく予定でしたがチエコさんのお話を聞いて全員でトライすることに!結果、沖までいけたのは私と姉と甥っ子のみでしたが、チエコさんの「どうにか見せてあげたい!」というお気持ちがかなり伝わりました(泣)沖へ行く組はダンさんと一緒に。ダンさんもものすごく優しくて甥っ子の手をずっと引いて行ってくれました。ラッキーなことに大きな亀さんが二匹も見ることが出来ました。私のGOPROが途中でフリーズしてしまい撮影出来なかったことだけが残念です(泣)一緒に泳いだところを撮りたかった!!!それはまた次回のお楽しみにとっておきます。チエコさん、ダンさん今回はお世話になりました。また絶対にお願いしたいと思います。ありがとうございました。

The snorkeling tour with the three-generation family was so much fun! I was really happy to see everyone trying their best. Even the grandparents, who initially planned not to swim, did very well and were able to reach the white buoy in the backyard, where we saw a large school of ladyfish. Please come again when you visit Hawaii. Next time, let's all swim out together to see the cute turtles in Hanauma! I look forward to seeing you all again. Thank you! Mahalo!!

三世代ファミリーでのシュノーケリングツアー、楽しかったですね!!皆さんが頑張ってトライしてくれて、私もうれしかったです。最初は泳がないつもりだったお祖父様、お祖母様もとてもお上手で、バックヤードの白ブイまで行くことが出来て大きなレディフィッシュの群れも見れましたね。是非またハワイにお越しの際には皆さんで来てください。次回は皆さんでアウトサイドまで泳いでまたハナウマのかわいい亀さんを見に行きましょうね!!またお会いできるのを楽しみに待っています。ありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

Reviewed by: KEIKO

I was a bit anxious about participating alone, but the staff were very friendly, and I had a great time. The snorkeling was truly refreshing, and it was amazing to swim alongside a pod of dolphins. I also saw sea turtles swimming happily, and there were many beautifully colored fish; everything felt like a different world. I want to join again the next time I go to Hawaii!

一人参加だってので、少々不安もありましたが
スタッフのみなさんごとてもフレンドリーで、とても楽しめました。
シュノーケル、本当に気持ちよくて
泳いでるそばをイルカの群れも一緒に進んでくれて最高でした。

Hanauma Bay Snorkel Tour with Expert Guide & Waikiki Transportation

Wonderful Experience for the Whole Family

Reviewed by: Scott

Do not be afraid of this activity. First, the tour directors could not have been more friendly and helpful. Second, they could not have made it any easier. They picked us up at the lobby of the hotel, drove us to the bay, got us through the required orientation film and down to the water so efficiently. They have been doing this so long that they anticipated all of our needs (even before we realized that we had the need). Then, guided us into the water and instructed everyone on how to use the shorkle and made us all feel very comfortable. Even the 8 year old twins who are normally a handful. We were slowly guided around the bay and shown fish, eels and turtles. We stopped for pictures occasionally. And, told that we could download them from Facebook later that night.
When we were done, they gave us much needed water and snacks. Much needed because this was a good work out ( for a fat old guy). We got back to the van and were taken right back to our hotel and were the. Already trying to figure out when we could do the excursion again.
So, you don't have to worry about whether or not this is worth doing. And, it couldn't be easier or more enjoyable..

I was able to see many sea turtles up close, and the sandbar was very beautiful, so I was extremely satisfied. The weather was great, making it the perfect day! Since I had my 11-month-old son with me, I didn't participate in snorkeling, but we enjoyed taking photos in the shallow water. The sandwiches after getting in the water were also delicious.

ウミガメも近くでたくさん見れたし、サンドバーもとっても綺麗で大満足でした。
天気も良くこの日は最高!
11か月の息子がいたのでシュノーケリングには参加せず、浅瀬のところで写真を撮ったりして楽しみました。
海に入った後のサンドイッチも美味しかったです。
