3-Hour Ko Olina Snorkel Cruise & Dolphin Watching Tour with Deli Lunch & Drinks

Great experience

Reviewed by: Hannah and Steve

Me and my boyfriend had a great time on this sail. The crew was so friendly, made us feel right at home. We like to snorkel every chance we get - and we love when the crew will show us specific cool finds - like sea turtles and dolphins! The food was delicious as well. We like more intimate sails, and there were only about 15 people on our boat, with 4 crew members - PERFECT! Overall just a great tour and exactly what we were looking for. Wish it would have lasted longer! 4 hours on the dot. Thanks again guys.

野生のイルカウォッチング＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　ジャンボスライダーやSUPも楽しめる！＜ランチ付き／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎／日本語または英語ガイド＞

A once-in-a-lifetime experience. 一生に一度の体験

Reviewed by: びびこ

This tour is full of Aloha hospitality. On the day I participated, I was lucky enough to encounter wild dolphins at two different points. The American crew was fantastic. The guide who swam with the dolphins was clear and kind in their instructions, and they were experienced in catering to each passenger's needs. I attended with a friend, but I noticed that they provided excellent care for families with children, which was appreciated. The guide's freediving underwater was artistic, almost like a dolphin! On the way back, they performed bright and beautiful prayer songs with sharp dancing.

For those who will be participating, I recommend taking measures against seasickness and bringing a waterproof outdoor jacket. I don’t get seasick, but quite a few people were feeling unwell and couldn’t enjoy the beautiful scenery of the boat trip, which was unfortunate to see. Additional investments to enhance your experience include seasickness medication, which is available at Japanese airports, and a $20 wristband that is introduced on the bus ride to the destination. Also, depending on where you sit on the boat, you may get splashed by the waves. Having a lightweight, water-resistant jacket would make your experience more comfortable.

アロハホスピタリティ満点のツアーです。私が参加した日は、ラッキーなことにポイント２ヶ所で野生のイルカと遭遇できました。アメリカ人のクルーも大当たりでした。イルカと泳ぐガイドもわかりやすく親切に案内してくれましたし、乗客の方それぞれにあった対応も慣れていて、私は友人との参加でしたが、家族連れには子供へのケアが厚く、ありがたい様子でした。水中でのガイドのフリーダイビングも芸術的で、まるでイルカみたいでした！帰りは明るくて祈りの歌が上手でキレッキレのダンスを披露してくれました。
これから参加される方には、酔い止め対策を取られること、Waterproofのアウトドアジャケットを持参されることをお薦めします。私は船酔いしないのですが、結構な方がダウンされていてせっかくの船旅の景色を楽しむことができず見ていて気の毒でした。体験を良くするための追加の投資は酔い止め薬は日本の空港でも売っていますし、往路のバスで$20のリストバンドが紹介されます。また船での移動は座る場所によって波しぶきがかかります。水を通さないタイプの薄手のジャケットがあると快適に過ごせると思います。

ウミガメシュノーケリング　ホロカイ・カタマラン号　高確率でウミガメに会えるタートルキャニオンへ！ソフトドリンク&スナック付き＜3時間／英語／ワイキキホテル発＞

Seasickness 船酔い

Reviewed by: hayashi

We participated as a couple. As soon as we exited the hotel and reached the beach, we saw the boat, so we arrived without any confusion. There were about 20 participants that day, but we were the only Japanese people.

The weather was nice, and it was great that we got to see sea turtles. However, during snorkeling, there was an incident where my wife's life jacket lost air. Since she couldn't swim, she was quite panicked. I waved to the guide on the boat, but they just smiled and waved back, thinking it was a simple greeting, and didn’t come to help. When I shouted "Help" loudly, a guide swimming nearby brought a float, and we managed to resolve the situation. Perhaps there was an explanation on how to call for help during the initial English guidance.

When we got back on the boat, I found that my life jacket was also about 70% deflated. I had checked how to inflate it and how to maintain the valve with the guide, so the equipment itself might have been faulty.

After snorkeling, we cruised towards Diamond Head. The waves were quite big, and I ended up feeling sick. When I asked the guide where the restroom was because I thought I might throw up, I was told, "Don't throw up in the restroom," so I had to hold it in. Eventually, I couldn't hold it anymore and ended up using a plastic bag.

There were other guests who also felt sick, but after applying lavender essential oil, they received a bucket that said "Let's Do It" and were encouraged with "Let's Do it." There were several people who were rescued from near drowning and others who felt unwell, but they were all Asian. The Western guests seemed to be having a great time, drinking alcohol on the boat. It might be a tour more suited for Westerners (laughs).

夫婦二人で参加しました。
ホテルからビーチに出るとすぐに船が見えたため、迷うことなく到着。当日は20人ほど参加していましたが、日本人は私たち二人だけでした。
天気が良く、ウミガメにも会えた点は良かったです。
しかし、シュノーケリング中、妻の救命胴衣から空気が抜けるハプニングが発生。妻は泳げなかったのでかなり焦りました。船にいるガイドに手を振ったのですが、単なるコミュニケーションと思ったのかニコニコ手を振りかえしてくるだけで助けてもらえず。「Help」と大きな声を上げたところ近くで泳いでいたガイドさんが浮き輪を持ってきて来てくれて事なきを得ました。もしかしたら、最初の英語のガイダンスのところで助けの呼び方などの説明があったのかもしれません。船に上がると私の救命胴衣も7割ほど空気が抜けていました。空気の入れ方、弁の保持の仕方等はガイドさんにチェックしてもらい実施していたので道具自体が良くなかったのかもしれません。
シュノーケリング後はダイヤモンドヘッドの方などをクルージング。結構波が大きく、今度は私の気分が悪くなってしまいました。トイレで吐こうと思いガイドさんにトイレの場所を聞くと、「トイレでは吐くな」と言われ我慢することに。その後、とうとう我慢ができずにビニール袋に戻しました。
他のお客さんも気分が悪くなった人はいましたが、ラベンダーのアロマオイルを塗られた後、「Let's Do It」と書かれたバケツをもらい、「Let's Do it」と言われていました。
溺れかかって助けられた人、気分の悪くなった人は複数人いましたが全てアジア人。西洋人は船上でお酒をがぶがぶ飲みとても楽しそうでした。西洋人向きのツアーなのかもしれません（笑）

Great Experience

Reviewed by: KrisG

It is a great experience doing the Underwater scooter. The guides were excellent making sure we are comfortable right from the beginning. It was a 1 to 1 guided adventure. The guides captured excellent pictures and videos of us individually and as as a couple with the beautiful fishes!. The plus thing is they do have all the snorkeling gear available for free so once you are done or you decide when your turn is you can do snorkeling.

Beautiful sandbar 美しいサンドバー

Reviewed by: Bitsy

There was no sand, but the water was about knee-deep and the weather was sunny, so I was able to take very beautiful photos. I also encountered a sea turtle and the food was delicious. However, since there were only enough paper plates for the number of people, those who want seconds should keep their paper plates.

It's important to note that the rules do not allow staff to take photos with just an iPhone or a camera in a waterproof case, so I highly recommend bringing a waterproof camera. When snorkeling to see the coral, the visibility wasn't very high, and many areas of the coral appeared to be dead. I went in December, but since the water was cold, it's a good idea to bring something to wear on the boat.

砂は出ていませんでしたが膝下くらいの水深で天気も晴れていたのでとても美しい写真が撮れました。ウミガメにも出会え料理も美味しかったです。
ただし紙皿が人数分しかないため、お代わりしたい人は紙皿をキープしといたほうがいいです。
iPhone や防水ケースに入れただけのカメラではスタッフの人に写真を撮ってもらうことができないルールなので必ず防水カメラを持っていくことをおすすめします。
シュノーケリングで珊瑚を見るときにそこまで透明度は高くなく、珊瑚も死んでいる箇所が多く見られました。
12月に行ったのですが、水が冷たいため船上で羽織るものを持って行ったほうがいいです。

Enjoying the ocean in Hawaii♪ ハワイの海を満喫♪

Reviewed by: しろたん

We departed early in the morning and boarded the shuttle bus next to the nearby hotel, listening to explanations from a Japanese female guide for an hour until we arrived at the island's west coast! I was worried about getting motion sickness on the bus and the boat, so I took my medicine early. Changing into my swimsuit at the hotel was definitely the right choice. Also, I was able to rent a wetsuit on-site for $10. Once I was ready, it was time to board. The waves were intense, but the sea breeze felt great, and fortunately, it cleared up despite the rain forecast.

When we reached the spot, the crew immediately had everyone jump in as soon as they spotted dolphins! When I put my face in the water, I saw a huge pod of dolphins!! Although we couldn't get super close, I was thrilled to see wild dolphins swimming in groups. We jumped in about twice, and afterward, we had around 30 minutes of free time for canoeing, stand-up paddleboarding, and snorkeling. While snorkeling, I spotted a sea turtle! It was coming up for air every 20 minutes, and I was able to see it up close, which was very moving.

After that, we had cheeseburgers and chips on the boat. It was incredibly delicious after all the activity. Finally, we all participated in a hula dance. The staff really got everyone excited, and we were able to enjoy ourselves until the end. I think this became the best memory of this trip.

早朝の出発で、近くのホテル横にて送迎バスに乗り込み、日本人の女性ガイドさんの説明を聞きながら1時間、島の西海岸に到着！

また、ウェットスーツのレンタルはその場で1人$10でできました。
身支度を済ませたらいざ乗船。揺れは凄まじいですが、何より潮風が気持ちよく、雨予報でしたが幸運なことに晴れてきてくれました。
ポイントに着くと、クルーがイルカを発見次第即全員とにかく飛び込み！顔を水中に付けてみるとイルカの大群！！
超接近とまではいきませんでしたが、野生の泳ぐイルカを群れで見ることができ、感激しました。
2度程飛び込みをし、その後はカヌーやスタンドアップパドル、シュノーケルなどで30分程自由時間でした。
シュノーケルをしていたら海亀を発見！しかも20分に1度に水面へ呼吸しに上がってくるタイミングでした。超間近で海亀を見ることができ、とても感動しました。
その後、船の上でチーズバーガーとチップスをいただきました。沢山動いた後だったので、凄く美味しかったです。

Satisfaction. 満足

Reviewed by: 旦那1日目

A year after our wedding, we finally made it to Hawaii! And I got to meet dolphins for the first time, which I've always dreamed of!

We woke up early, and I thought I would definitely fall asleep on the bus, but I was too excited about seeing the dolphins to sleep at all. Once we arrived at the ocean and changed, we were ready to go to the spot—let's go!!!

The waves were a bit high today, which made me feel a little blue at first. But after a while, the captain said we could see dolphins, and all my worries disappeared! When we got into the water, there were supposedly only a few, but about ten dolphins came to greet us. I was strangely moved to see dolphins in person for the first time.

I'm so glad I bought an underwater camera—really glad (waiting for the development, haha). After enjoying that experience, we returned to the boat and headed to the snorkeling spot! On the way, we even saw a whale! The crew mentioned that it's rare to see them up close like that. We were super lucky!

When we arrived at the snorkeling spot and got in, unfortunately, the water was really murky, so it wasn't great for snorkeling. I have to deduct one star for that.

We quickly returned to the boat and had a cheeseburger for lunch! The taro buns were amazing—way better than anything from a regular shop!

That wrapped up the tour. I fell asleep on the bus, probably from all the swimming, and when I woke up, we were in Honolulu.

I got to meet dolphins, the cheeseburger was delicious, and the crew was all really nice. I definitely want to join again!

It was such a wonderful honeymoon memory!!!

ハネムーンで1年ぶりのハワイ！そして念願の初めてのイルカ！

いざ海に入ってみると、数は少ないらしいがちゃんとイルカちゃん達10匹くらい？がお出迎えしてくれました。
初めて生で見たイルカに妙に感動。
水中カメラ買っていって良かった〜、本当に良かった〜(現像待ち笑)
十分に堪能したら船に戻り今度はシュノーケリングスポットへ！その途中でクジラも見れました！クルーも言ってたけど、こんなに近くで見れることなんてないとのこと。めちゃくちゃラッキーでした！
シュノーケリングスポットついて入ってみるととてもじゃないけど水が濁っていてシュノーケリングどころじゃなかったのが残念でした。ここで星ひとつ減点。
早々に船に戻り、昼ごはんにチーズバーガー！タロイモのバンズ、最高でしたー！そこら辺の店よりもはるかに美味しかった！
これでツアーはおしまい。
バスに戻って泳いで疲れたのか即爆睡。気づいた頃にはホノルルでした。

It takes about an hour to drive from Honolulu. There were about 25 participants in the tour, including a small child around 5 years old.

After about 30 minutes on the boat heading north from the dock, we heard a shout of "There they are!!" and everyone dove into the sea! We got to play with about 30 friendly dolphins, who swam around us in circles, allowing us to enjoy the experience to the fullest. It seems that such encounters are rare, and when they can't be found, the boat returns to the starting point and moves to different locations to dive about six times (according to the staff, it’s a test of stamina).

After the dolphin time, it was time for the turtle experience. We enjoyed snorkeling while learning about the turtles. Those who wanted could also try paddle boarding and kayaking, so I decided to try paddle boarding. I struggled a bit but felt motivated to challenge myself a little more. It was a valuable experience.

When we returned to the boat, it was lunchtime! The staff distributed cheeseburgers and snacks, and we ate while moving back to the dock. After lunch, we had a fun hula dance time with the staff! We were also lucky to spot a whale spouting in the distance during our journey.

ホノルルから車で移動すること約1時間。ツアー参加者は25人程度。5歳くらいの小さなお子さんも参加していました。

いるかの時間が終わると、カメ教授の時間です。シュノーケルをしながらカメ教授の時間を堪能しました。希望者はここでパドルボートとカヤックの体験が可能だったため、パドルボートを体験。なかなか成功できず、もう少しチャレンジしたい気もちになりました。貴重な体験ができました。
船に戻るとランチタイムです♪スタッフからチーズバーガーやスナックを配給され、それらを食べながら船着場まで移動しました。ランチタイムが終わるとスタッフとのりのりのフラダンスタイム！！移動中遠くで潮を吹くクジラの姿も見れてラッキーなことが多発でした。

The hotel pickup was smooth, and we arrived from the Ala Moana Hotel in about an hour. The staff were all cheerful. The weather was great, and the sandbar was incredibly beautiful. My 81-year-old father managed to walk in water up to his knees. I want to thank the Japanese staff member who held his hand. It was a rare opportunity to enter such a beautiful sea, and he seemed very impressed! The lunch was also good and very delicious. During the free time afterward, everyone enjoyed themselves with canoes, paddleboards, and floating around with inner tubes. Since everyone was treated as beginners for snorkeling and had to line up to practice before diving, it reduced the fun a bit; I wished that those with snorkeling experience could dive freely. However, there were surprisingly many fish, so we still had a good time. The friendly atmosphere of the staff was really nice.

I didn't see a complete sandbar, but I was able to experience the strange sensation of walking in the ocean. The color of the sea varies with depth, and the contrast was moving just to look at.

It was my first time snorkeling, and I was anxious, but each person checked to make sure we could breathe, so I was able to enjoy it with peace of mind. I think it's a good idea to have a waterproof cover for your camera. I bought one for my iPhone at ABC Store.

The staff were genuinely kind and friendly. I believe the shuttle bus driver was a local, and he worked hard to guide us in Japanese, sharing valuable information about Hawaii. I was healed during this time away from everyday life. Thank you so much!

完全なサンドバーは見られませんでしたが、海の中を歩くという不思議な感覚を体験できました。深さによって海の色が違うので、そのコントラストは見ているだけで感動的でした。

I was very satisfied to swim with dolphins! イルカと泳げて大満足！

Reviewed by: yuya

I enrolled at Dolphin University for the first time this time. I participated in the early morning tour, and I was really worried about whether I could keep my energy up since it started at 6 AM, but there was no need for concern. The tour guide worked hard to boost everyone's spirits and explained the itinerary in detail, so I think first-time participants can join the tour without any worries.

As soon as we arrived at the port and set off, within just about ten minutes, we spotted wild dolphins swimming! It seems that the spinner dolphins are the type that perform rotational jumps at the surface, and while I wasn't sure if I would actually see it, I was lucky enough to witness a live jump.

Additionally, I was able to enter the water and snorkel alongside the dolphins, which was incredibly moving. I think it was a great experience to see the dolphins swimming in a pod up close.

Not only did we interact with dolphins, but we also swam at a spot filled with many fish, and we had the opportunity to paddle and kayak as well. It was a very meaningful time, as we could enjoy multiple activities in one outing.

I definitely want to experience this again when I come back to Hawaii.

　今回初めてイルカ大学に入学しました。
　朝イチのツアーに参加させていただきました。とても朝が早く、６時集合ということでテンション的に保つかどうかすごく心配でしたが、何の心配もいりませんでした。添乗員さんがものすごくみんなのテンションを上げるように働きかけてくれ、さらに今回の流れも細かく説明してくれるので、初めて参加される方も何も心配することなくツアーに参加することができると思います。
　そして港に着きすぐに出発すると、ものの１０分少々で野生のイルカたちが泳いでいるではありませんか！ハシナガイルカは水面を回転ジャンプする種類のようで、実際に見ることができるか不確定でしたが、生ジャンプも見ることができました。
　また実際に海の中に入ってシュノーケリングをしながらイルカと並んで泳ぐこともでき、とても感動しました。群れになって泳いでいるイルカたちをものすごい近くで見ることができてとても良い経験になったと思います。
　またイルカだけでなく、魚がたくさんいるポイントまで行って泳いだり、パドリングやカヤックの体験もでき、一度のアクティビティで複数の体験をすることができてとても有意義な時間でした。
　またハワイに来たら、ぜひ体験したいと思います。

I was able to swim with dolphins! But… イルカと泳げました！でも…

Reviewed by: ココナッツ

I was able to swim with dolphins and see several sea turtles up close! This is a tour I can recommend! I had heard that it could be a bit cold on the boat, but they provide wetsuits, so it's not a problem.

Just a little… I found it very unpleasant when a male staff member made comments that belittled the female staff (^ ^) The bus ride there was also filled with fun stories! I would love to participate again! Thank you!

イルカと泳げたし海亀も何匹も間近で見ることができました！
オススメできるツアーです！
船の上は少し寒いと聞いていましたが、ウェットスーツを貸して頂けるので問題ないです。

少しだけ…男性スタッフが、女性スタッフをばかにするような発言はとても不快でした(^ ^)
行きのバスも楽しいお話でしたよ！
また参加したいです！
ありがとうございました！

So many dolphins right next to us! こんなにたくさんのイルカがすぐ側に！

Reviewed by: ゆうこ

I have always wanted to swim with dolphins, and I was really glad to see so many dolphins at once and to swim with them. They were close enough that I could see their eyes! I was also happy to meet a turtle and a stingray. The staff were kind and cheerful, and I definitely want to participate again!

イルカと泳ぎたいとずっと思っていましたが、こんなにたくさんのイルカを一度に見ることができ、一緒に泳ぐことができて本当によかったです。イルカの視線がわかるほど近くでした！カメもエイにも会えてよかったです。スタッフの方も優しくて、明るくて、是非また参加したいです！

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＞

Be careful of sunburn. What personally caught my attention was the last... 日焼けに注意。個人的にひっかかったのは、最後の。。

Reviewed by: noevir

I had a great time.
I participated in mid-September, and the sandbar was about 15 to 20 cm deep at the shallowest point.
During snorkeling, when the staff threw in some food, a lot of fish came close, and I really enjoyed it.
(I think there were sea turtles, but I missed seeing them.)
The lunch hamburger was surprisingly delicious!

I applied sunscreen before participating, but while I took a 30-minute nap on the boat, I got an incredibly severe sunburn like I had never experienced before. It was painful to walk the next day and afterward, which was tough.
At the end, the staff said, "Since this is an American company, if possible, we would appreciate your feelings..." (for tips), so I dropped a little something into the tip bucket at the boat disembarkation point. However, when I looked at the bucket, there were zero tips from anyone except our group!!!
During the tour, they prepared meals and provided support, and I felt that the staff's personality and service were very pleasant. However, there were some people who hesitated, saying things like, "Is it okay to give just coins?" which personally surprised me.

楽しかったです。
９月半ばに参加、サンドバーは一番浅い場所で水深15〜20cmくらいだったかな？
シュノーケリングはスタッフさんがエサを投下すると、たくさんのお魚さんが間近に来てくれて、とても楽しめました。
(海ガメもいたみたいですが、自分は見逃しました。
)
ランチのハンバーガーが意外にも美味しくて♪(´ε｀ )

日焼け止め塗って参加しましたが、ボートで30分うたた寝してる間に今まで体験したことないくらいの物凄い日焼け(重症)してしまい、翌日以降歩くのも痛くて、大変でした。
最後にスタッフさんが「一応、アメリカの会社なのでできれば、、お気持ちを、、お願いします！」(チップ)と言われたので、ボート降車口に設置されているチップ入れのバケツに少しばかり気持ちを投下しました。が、しかし、バケツを見てみると、うちのグループ以外にチップ投下ゼロ！！！
ツアー中は食事の用意やらサポートやらしていただきましたし、スタッフさんの人柄や対応もとても気持ちの良いものだったと感じたのですが。。
中には「小銭でもいいかな？」なんて言って渋ってる方もいて、個人的には驚きました。

Very satisfied! とっても満足！

Reviewed by: mahalo♪

I was very satisfied! First, they gave us a wake-up call at 5 AM, which was kind of them. Since it was cold, they recommended renting a jacket and mentioned to bring the rental fee if we decided to use it. The pickup was at 5:55 AM from a location close to the hotel we stayed at. Bright and cheerful staff welcomed us, which was a relief. On the bus, they explained what was to come, and after arriving, we had a bathroom break because the restrooms on the boat were quite limited. Soon after, we boarded the boat, and the staff introduced themselves. Everyone was cheerful and made us feel excited. We prayed on the boat and threw flowers into the sea.

Once we reached the area where we could see dolphins, everyone jumped into the water, and after three attempts, we finally spotted a pod of dolphins in the distance! They kept getting closer, and there were more than ten of them! They swam right beneath us! Although we couldn't touch them, I was thrilled to see dolphins up close, something I never expected! After swimming with the dolphins, we had free time to enjoy snorkeling or slide down the slide they provided. After that, we had cheeseburgers, potato chips, and cold pineapple, which made me very happy. The staff danced the hula, enhancing the Hawaiian atmosphere, and it was a moment when I truly felt the essence of Hawaii. I would love to go again. The group photo at the end was a luxurious touch. Mahalo♪

満足でした！まず朝5時にモーニングコールをくださいました。親切です。寒いのでジャケットレンタルをオススメされ、もし使用する場合はレンタル料金を持ってきてくださいとのことでした。朝の5:55にわたし達が宿泊したホテルから近い場所でのピックアップです。明るい元気なお姉さん達がまず出迎えてくれ、ホッとしました。バスの中ではこれからの説明などをしてくれ、到着後は船のお手洗いは大変とのことでお手洗いタイムがありました。その後すぐに船にのり、スタッフさんの自己紹介。皆さん明るくてわくわく気分にしてくれます。船の上でおいのりをして海に花を投げました。
イルカが見える場所についてから、みんな一斉に海に飛び込むこと3回目でようやくいるかの群れを遠くに発見！！と思ったらどんどん近づいてきて、
10匹以上はいました！そしてなんと私たちの真下を悠々と泳いでます！触れる距離ではありませんでしたが、イルカをこんなに間近で見ることが出来るだなんて思ってもなかったので興奮してしまいました！イルカと泳いだ後は各自自由にシュノーケルを
楽しんだり、用意してくれた滑り台を滑ったりなどなど。その後はチーズバーガーを食べ、ポテトチップスを食べ、冷たいパインを食べて幸せでした。スタッフさんたちがフラダンスを踊って、ハワイ気分をもっと高めてくれたので、ハワイの実感が湧いた瞬間でした。またいきたいと思います。最後のグループごとで写真撮影も贅沢でした。mahalo♪

Enjoying the great outdoors (^O^) You can have fun even on the boat! 大自然満喫(^O^)船上でも楽しめちゃいます

Reviewed by: ゆぅー

This is my second time participating in a wild dolphin snorkeling tour (^O^)
It was my first time with this tour company!
In a word, it was very fulfilling.
Not only did we swim with wild dolphins, but there were also many entertaining performances on the boat that kept us laughing the whole time (人 •͈ᴗ•͈)

We joined the morning tour!
The meeting time was early at 6 AM, but it was reassuring!
First, we received a morning call, which was a nice touch d(ﾟ∀ﾟd)!
And since it was in perfect Japanese, there was nothing to worry about!
We took a bus for about 45 minutes to our destination ʕ•̫͡•ʔ.
Then we headed to the dolphins' habitat, which took a bit of time ( .. ).
However, the content was packed with activities that kept us entertained ٩( 'ω' )و!
We sang songs together while offering flowers and praying,
and there were explanations on the bus to confirm safety precautions.
Then we started snorkeling with the wild dolphins (^O^).
A dedicated photographer took lots of wonderful pictures for us!
We brought our own waterproof camera, so we didn’t request their service,
but it seems you can get a USB with about 300 photos for $55 if paid in advance, or $60 if ordered later (^^).
After seeing the dolphins, we went snorkeling, and then there were boats and a slide for us to enjoy in the sea (*´罒`*).
We even got to eat hamburgers (♡´艸`).
And on top of that, they performed a hula dance for us!
It was a fun tour filled with laughter from start to finish ( ¨̮ ).
At the end, we took a group photo (^O^).
They send the pictures to your phone, which is a nice service!
If I go snorkeling with dolphins again, I will definitely choose this tour ( ¨̮ ).
*As a note, it can be cold on the boat and in the bus, so be sure to prepare a bath towel and a jacket!
Also, if you get motion sickness, it can ruin everything, so be sure to take motion sickness medication!!

今回で2回目の野生のイルカ
シュノーケリングツアーの参加になります(^O^)
こちらのツアー会社でツアーゎ初めてでした！
一言で言うと、とても内容が濃くて
野生のイルカと泳ぐのはもちろん
船の上でも楽しませてくれる演出が多くあり
ずっと笑いっぱなしのツアーでした(人 •͈ᴗ•͈)

私たちは朝からのツアー参加！
集合は6時と早いです！けれど安心です！
まず、朝からなんとモーニングコールを
していただけちゃいますd(ﾟ∀ﾟd)ﾅｲｽ!
しかも日本語ばっちしなので
なんの心配もいりません！
集合バスで出発し〜約45分くらいかけて
目的地まで向かいますʕ•̫͡•ʔ
それからイルカの生息地に向かうのですが
なかなか時間がかかります〜( .. )
けれど、飽きさせない内容盛り沢山٩( 'ω' )و ！
海に歌をみんなで歌いたながら
お花を捧げてお祈りをし
再度バスの中でも説明もありますが
注意事項を再度確認して
いざ野生のイルカさんと
シュノーケリング開始(^O^)
専属のカメラマンさんが
素敵な写真をいっぱいとってくださいます〜！
私たちは防水カメラを持参したため
お願いしなかったのですが
前払いで＄55、あとからの注文だと＄60
で300枚ほどのデータがはいったUSBが頂けるようです(^^)
イルカさんみたあとは
シュノーケリングをして
その時間になんとボートやらすべり台登場ｗ
海で遊べちゃいます(*´罒`*)
さらにハンバーガーも食べれます(♡´艸`)
さらにさらにフラダンス踊ってくださいます！
終始笑いっぱなしの楽しいツアーです( ¨̮ )
最後は集合写真パシャリ(^O^)
これを携帯に写真送ってくれるんです〜
嬉しいサービスですね！
また次回イルカとシュノーケリングをするなら
こちらのツアーにさせていただきます( ¨̮ )
※補足としてほんとボートの上や
バスの中は寒いので
バスタオル、上着はしっかり準備すること！
さらに酔ってしまったら全て
台無しになるので酔い止め必見！！

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＞

I was able to be filial to my parents. 親孝行ができたー

Reviewed by: べんギャング

I checked the low tide times and participated in a tour with my parents and my husband that included a BBQ lunch. My brother-in-law and his wife, who went with a different tour company the day before, mentioned that the water level was up to their thighs, so I was a bit anxious about what to expect. However, on the day of our tour, the water level was only up to our shins, so it was fine.

The sandbar was even more beautiful than in the photos, and as soon as we arrived, my dad, who was really excited, jumped right in (laughs). My mom, who had said she didn't want to get in the water, ended up swimming before we knew it (laughs). It was that beautiful!

After playing a lot, I can confirm what everyone else has said: the hamburgers were really delicious. Be careful when eating outside if it's windy; things can fly away. We were also able to see many sea turtles from the boat, which was very satisfying. The directions like "12 o'clock" and "9 o'clock" were easy to understand.

All the staff were very kind, and I truly felt like a child playing all day. We took a lot of family photos, making it the best way to show appreciation to my parents. Thank you very much!

However, it can get cold on the way back, both on the boat and the bus, so it's better to have a thick jacket. I brought a light hoodie, but it was still cold. Because the wind was strong and the sea was murky, we didn't see many fish, so I would like to participate again.

干潮時間を調べ、BBQランチがついたツアーに私の両親と主人と４人で参加しました。
前日違うツアー会社で行ったと行っていた義理兄夫婦は太ももぐらいまで水位があったそうなので、どうなるかなーと不安でしたが、当日は膝下ぐらいの水位で大丈夫でした。
サンドバーが写真でみるより綺麗で着いた瞬間、テンション上がった父が飛び込んでました（笑）海には入りたくないと言っていた母もいつの間にか泳いでいました（笑）
それぐらいキレイでした♡
たくさん遊んで疲れたからなのか、皆さんが書いている通り、ハンバーガーが本当に美味しかったー。風が強い時は外で食べるのは要注意です。飛んでいきます。
ホヌも船上からたくさん見ることができ、大満足でした。
１２時の方向、９時の方向など分かりやすかった。
スタッフさんがみなさん優しくて、ほんとに1日子供のように遊べました。
たくさん家族で写真も撮ってもらい、最高の親孝行ができました♪
ありがとうございました。
ただ、帰りは船もバスも寒いので厚手の上着があった方がいいです。
薄手のパーカー持っていきましたが、それでも寒かったです。
風が強く、海が濁っていたため魚はあまり見れなかったので、また参加したいなと思ってます。
