Hanauma Bay Introductory Scuba Diving Lesson with Expert Guide [Open Soon]

Highly recommend it!

Reviewed by: Andy

I had my scuba dive with Dan and it definitely exceeded my expectations. I was rather nervous about it, but he was very patient and allowed me to take my time getting accustomed to the breathing and teaching me all the basic safety procedures. The dive itself was great, saw lots of fish and a sea turtle as well. Would highly recommend this for anyone that is doing their first dive!

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 had high expectations... 期待していただけに…

Reviewed by: YSE

I think it might have been because it was November, but the weather was cloudy and, simply put, very cold. I participated in snorkeling while shivering, but the sea was murky and not beautiful at all. The water level was about waist-high, and there was certainly no sandbar.

Also, we formed a pretty tight group while snorkeling, so it was common to get kicked by others' fins...

I was honestly disappointed because I was expecting the images to reflect a different experience.

I think it's better for those participating to consider the timing of their visit.

１１月ということもあったかとは思いますが、お天気も曇りでとにかく寒かったの一言です。
シュノーケリングも震えながら参加しましたが、海も濁っていてきれいとは言えませんでした。水位は腰上くらいで、サンドバーはもちろんありません。
また、集団でかなり固まった状態で列をなしてシュノーケリングをするので他人のバタ足がぶつかることもしばしば…

画像の感じを期待していたので正直がっかりでした。

参加される方は時期を考えて参加されたほうがよいかと思います。

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＞

Very satisfied!! 大満足！！

Reviewed by: Y.R&K

We gathered at 9 AM and took a bus for about 30 minutes to the port. During the bus ride, they provided detailed explanations about the types of dolphins, precautions, and how to use the equipment. If you are prone to motion sickness, it’s a good idea to take some medication on the bus!

Once we arrived at the port, those who needed it could rent a wetsuit for $10. When I participated, everyone, both men and women, rented one. The water was a bit cold during this time.

And off we go to meet the dolphins! Just when I thought, "They’re not coming out," I spotted a dolphin's fin! With the guide's excited shout of "There it is!", we quickly got our gear ready and jumped into the sea from the boat. I was truly thrilled to see a pod of dolphins up close!

Next, we moved to meet the turtles. While we could see the dolphins very closely, the turtles were so close that we could almost reach out to them! (Please do not touch them.) We were able to see about 4 to 5 turtles and had a wonderful time.

The staff and guides were very friendly, making the tour enjoyable. I initially hesitated to join, but it turned out to be the best tour I participated in during my trip to Hawaii!

朝9時集合、バスに30分程乗り港へ向かいます。
バスの中では、イルカの種類や注意事項、用具の使用方法など丁寧に説明してくれます◎
酔いやすい方は、バスの中で酔い止めを飲んでおくと良いかと！
港についてから、必要な方は１０ドルでウェットスーツを借りることができます。
私が参加した際は男女全員借りてました。この時期は少し水か冷たい＞＜

いざ！イルカ先生にあいに！
「なかなかでてこないなー」と思っていると、イルカの背びれが！
ガイドさんの「いたー！」という声とともに、すぐに装備を完璧にしてボートから海に飛び込みます。間近にイルカの群れを見ることができ、本当に感激しました！！

次はカメにあいに移動をします。
イルカも本当に間近で見ることができましたが、カメは手に届くほどの近さで見ることができました！（※触ってはいけません）
4.5匹ほど見ることができ、とても素敵な時間を過ごすことが出来ました。

スタッフさん、ガイドさんもとても気さくな方達で楽しくツアーに参加出来ました。
はじめは参加を悩んでいましたが、ハワイ旅行の中で一番参加してよかったと思えたツアーでした！！

I joined because I wanted to see a beautiful ocean, and I was truly able to see a wonderful blue sea! I was moved by the ocean that stretched as far as the eye could see! Unfortunately, I didn't get to see the white sandy beach, which was a bit disappointing, but the ocean was still beautiful, and we had an amazing time!

Our tour guide, Yusuke, was very cheerful and funny, making for a fun memory. I honestly wasn't very interested in snorkeling, but after participating, I was amazed that I could see so many corals and fish! I seemed to struggle a bit with snorkeling and almost drowned a few times, but Yusuke provided thorough instructions and kept an eye on me, so I felt safe swimming!

Thanks to the beautiful ocean and the fun tour guides, I was able to create wonderful memories! Thank you so much! I love you, Yusuke!

とにかく綺麗な海がみたいと参加しましたが本当に水色の素敵な海が見られました！見渡す限り広がる海に感動でした！残念ながら白い砂浜を見られなかったのでさみしいですがそれでも十分綺麗な海でめちゃくちゃ騒ぎました！
添乗員のゆーすけさん、とっても明るく面白い方で楽しい思い出になりました。
シュノーケリングは正直あまり興味なかったですが参加してみてまさかあんなにサンゴと魚をたくさんみることができるとは思わなかったので感動でした！ただシュノーケリングは苦手だったみたいで何度かおぼれそうになりましたが…しっかりレクチャーもしてくれて見守っていてくれたので安心して泳げました！

あんなに綺麗な海と楽しい添乗員さんたちのおかげで素敵な思い出がつくれました！

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＞

I was able to meet dolphins in the best condition! 最高のコンディションでイルカに会えました！

Reviewed by: YA-KO

Meeting wild dolphins can be influenced by weather and sea conditions, and sometimes you may not see them at all (in fact, the day before, they hadn't seen any dolphins for the first time in six months), so I was a bit worried while traveling on the bus, even as we listened to various explanations.

Fortunately, the day we participated had wonderful weather and calm seas, and within 30 seconds of boarding, we spotted a pod of dolphins, which was the best possible condition. We were able to see wild dolphins and sea turtles, and it was truly moving. Seeing dozens of dolphins just a few meters away was breathtaking!

Our guide, Su-san, mentioned that dolphins like to play with plastic bags discarded by humans, and I was surprised to actually witness this scene. The dolphins playing were a mother and her baby, which made it an unforgettable moment because they were so adorable.

Afterward, we moved on and were able to see sea turtles and colorful tropical fish. It was heartwarming to see the turtles occasionally poking their heads above the water to breathe.

After snorkeling, we cruised for a while searching for whales, but unfortunately, we couldn't see any. However, we did get to see dozens of dolphins again, and I was satisfied to see them perform spinning jumps multiple times.

Due to the season, it can be cold in the mornings and evenings, and there are jellyfish in the water, so I was glad to have borrowed a wetsuit (for a fee of $10). For those who are not used to swimming or are inexperienced with snorkeling, it might be a little scary to enter the water at first, but the wetsuit helps you float, making it easier to move around in the sea.

Lastly, although it’s called a cruise, this tour involves jumping straight into the sea, so we traveled on a boat-like vessel. Even in calm waters, it rocked a bit, and I felt a little seasick, as did some other participants. I think taking motion sickness medication would help you enjoy the experience 100%.

There is also a dedicated photographer on board, so you can purchase beautiful photos later that you wouldn't be able to capture on your own!

野生のイルカ達に会うのは、天候や海の状況などによって左右され、時には会えない事もあるようなので（実際に前日は、半年ぶりに会えなかったとのこと）バスの移動中、色々説明を聞きながらも心配していました。
幸い私達が参加した日は、素晴らしい天気と穏やかな海、乗船して３０秒でイルカの群れ発見というベストなコンディションに恵まれ、野生のイルカ達やウミガメに会うことが出来、とても感動しました。何十頭ものイルカを何メートルか先で見ることが出来るのは圧巻でした！
ガイドのすーさんからの説明で、イルカが人が捨てたスーパーの袋で遊ぶのが好きという話を聞いていたのですが、実際にその光景を目にする事も出来てビックリしました。その遊んでいたイルカが親子だったのが、本当に可愛かったので忘れられない場面になりました。
その後移動して、ウミガメや色とりどりの熱帯魚にも会うことができました。ウミガメは呼吸をするために、時々水面から首を出す姿が微笑ましかったです。
シュノーケル後、クジラを探して暫くクルージングしましたが、残念ながらクジラは見る事はできませんでしたが、また何十頭ものイルカを見ることができました。回転ジャンプも何度も見れて満足しました。

時期的に、朝晩や海から上がった後は寒く、クラゲも発生しているそうなので、ウエットスーツを貸してもらって良かったです。(有料10ドル）
泳ぎに不慣れな人や、シュノーケリング未経験者の人は、最初は海に入るのが少し怖いかもしれませんが、ウエットスーツが浮くので、海の中でも移動しやすいと思います。

最後に、クルーズといっても、このツアーは海にすぐ飛び込むので、ボートのような船で移動します。穏やかな海でも揺れるので、少し酔いましたし、他の参加者の方も酔われていました。酔い止めを飲んだ方が、100％楽しめると思います。
船専属のカメラマンさんも同行するので、個人では撮りきれない素敵な写真を後で購入できますよ！

A precious experience in the sea of Hawaii! ハワイの海での貴重な体験！

Reviewed by: べいすたん

I had signed up for the Dolphin Middle School program, but due to boat maintenance on the day, I ended up participating in the Dolphin University program. Overall, it was a very enjoyable tour! Here’s my experience at Dolphin University.

During the bus ride from Waikiki to the west coast, our class representative (guide) gave us a lecture on how to swim to meet the dolphins. Whether or not we would see dolphins depended on luck, as they are wild. There were days when we couldn't see them, and I heard that yesterday the tour was canceled due to strong winds. We received motion sickness medication on the bus, and those who wanted to could pay a $10 fee for a wetsuit.

When we arrived at the port, we enjoyed Leonard's "Masalada," which we had taken out along the way. Although it wasn't freshly made anymore due to the bus ride, I think it’s a good deal if you can eat without waiting in line.

We changed into our swimsuits and set sail! Shortly after departing, we spotted a pod of dolphins. We jumped into the sea from the moving boat! Once in the water, we swam hard to keep up with our guide, eagerly searching for dolphins.

Then, a dolphin swam right in front of us! There were even mother and baby dolphins! At times, dolphins passed directly beneath me. I also frequently heard the mystical sounds of dolphins chirping underwater. Although we were supposed to swim for about 30 minutes, I felt it was long enough as we kept swimming the whole time.

After that, we moved to another location by boat and spent just under an hour snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle surfing. We saw dolphins jumping from the boat during the move, and while snorkeling, I was able to swim alongside sea turtles!

I believe it was a valuable experience to swim together with dolphins while listening to their sounds in the Hawaiian sea! If I come back to Hawaii, I would definitely consider revisiting this tour.

イルカ中学の申し込みをしていましたが、当日ボートのメンテナンスとのことで、イルカ大学への参加となりました。総じてとても楽しいツアーでした！以下、イルカ大学の体験談です。

ワイキキから西側の海岸までバスで移動している間、学級委員(ガイド)さんからイルカに会うための泳ぎ方などのレクチャーを受けました。イルカに会えるかどうかは野生のイルカの為、運次第。会えない日もあったり、昨日は強風でツアー自体が中止になったそうです。バスの中で酔い止めの薬をもらい、また希望者は1人１０ドルのウェットスーツ代を払いました。

港に着くと、途中でテイクアウトしたレナードの「マサラダ」をいただきました。バスの移動時間で出来立てホヤホヤでなくなりますが、並ばずに食べれるとしたらお得だと思います。

予め着てきた水着姿になり、いざ出航！
出航して間もなくイルカの群れを発見。走行中の船から海へ飛び込みました！海に入ってからはガイドさんについて必死に泳ぐ泳ぐ笑
泳いでは目を凝らしてイルカを探しました。

すると目の前をイルカが通り過ぎる！親子イルカも！自分の真下をイルカたちが通り過ぎることもありました。また海中ではイルカのキュイキュイという鳴き声も頻繁に聞こえ神秘的なひと時でした。時間としたら３０分間泳げるそうですが、ずっと泳ぎ続きるので私は充分長く感じることができました。

その後は船で場所を移動し、1時間弱、シュノーケリングやカヤック、パドルサーフィンなどをして過ごしました。移動中の船からイルカジャンプが見れましたし、シュノーケリングではウミガメと一緒に泳ぐこともできました！

ハワイの海でイルカの声を聞きながら一緒に泳ぐことができ、貴重な体験ができたと思います！またハワイに来ることがあれば再訪しようかなと思えるツアーでした。

Dolphin Teacher ♡♡♡ イルカ先生♡♡♡

Reviewed by: nyanko

I wanted to see dolphins up close!! With that feeling, I joined this tour ♪*

On the morning of the day, I received a call in my room, wondering what was going on. They asked if it was okay to change to the university tour because the private dolphin middle school had a shortage of participants. Although the content was slightly different from the middle school and the duration was longer, I didn't have any other plans, so I agreed to the change.

**☆This experience is about my enrollment in the prestigious Dolphin University☆**

I was picked up by bus, and it was fully booked that day. Since it takes time to move, we had a brief lecture on precautions for entering the sea and the rental of snorkeling gear. We also stopped by Leonard's, where the tour company staff bought malasadas for everyone. The weather was nice, but the water was a bit cold, so many people rented wetsuits due to the increased buoyancy.

During three tries, I was able to meet the dolphins twice ♡ And I was moved to hear their sounds!! While waiting for the next try, I saw the dorsal fins of the swimming dolphins (just seeing the fins increased my anticipation☆), and I was able to see baby dolphins jumping about three to four times, born during this season!

Also, dolphins are said to be very curious, and I was surprised to see them swimming right alongside the front of the boat for a long time. I also enjoyed seeing sea turtles and water sports (like kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding), making it an amazing time ♪

By the way, I can't swim at all (I can't do the breaststroke), but I decided to participate because I really wanted to see the dolphins up close. However, there were many staff members, and they helped those who couldn't swim by letting them hold onto floaties and assisting them in searching for dolphins, which made me feel at ease. (It would probably be more fun to swim on my own with my companions, but it can't be helped ^^;)

Since I didn't participate in the dolphin middle school, the content might be different, but if you have the time, I recommend Dolphin University (it seems to be the same tour company) ☆*

イルカを間近で見てみたい！！
そんな気持ちでこのツアーに参加させてもらいました♪*
当日朝、部屋に電話がかかってきて何事かと思っていたところ、
私立イルカ中学2便が人数不足のため、大学に変更でもよろしいですか？とのこと。
中学とは少し内容が違うため、時間が長いとのことでしたが他に予定も入れてなかったので変更してもらいました。


**☆この体験談は名門イルカ大学に入学したことを記載します☆**

バスでのお迎えでしたが、この日は満席でした。
移動に時間がかかるため、海に入る際の注意や貸出のシュノーケルなどの軽いレクチャーと
レナーズに立ち寄り、ツアー会社の方が全員分のマラサダを買って来てくれました。
天気は良かったのですが、海の中は少し寒いことや浮力が増すということで多くの方がウェットスーツを借りていました。
3回のトライで、2回もイルカたちに逢うことができたのです♡
しかも鳴き声も聞こえて感動！！
トライ待ちの移動では、泳ぐイルカたちの背びれや(背びれが見えるだけで期待感UP☆)、
この時期産まれた赤ちゃんイルカのジャンプも３～４回は見れました！
また、イルカは好奇心が旺盛らしく、
船の先頭というかスレスレの所をずーっと一緒に泳いでいたのにはびっくりしました。
その後の海ガメ先生やウォータースポーツ(カヤックやスタンドアップパドルなど）も楽しめ
サイコーの時間を過ごせました♪

ちなみに私、全く泳げない(平泳ぎがﾀﾞﾒ)ですが、
どうしてもイルカを間近で見たくて参加を決めました。
ですがスタッフも多く、泳げない人には浮輪につかまらせてくれて
かかりきりでイルカ探しを手伝ってくれるので安心しました。
(自分で泳げた方が同行者とも一緒に楽しめるんでしょうが。。仕方ない^^;)

今回イルカ中学に参加ではなかったので内容は異なるかもしれませんが、
時間にも余裕があるならイルカ大学(同じツアー会社みたいです)をオススメします☆*

Whales, dolphins, and sea turtles! クジラもイルカもウミガメも！

Reviewed by: SSS

I was able to see whales, dolphins, and sea turtles! I had heard that the sea had been rough for the past few days with high waves and that people weren't able to see dolphins, so I was worried, but fortunately, the waves were calm on this day. Since the morning was very early, I felt like I might doze off, but I made sure to listen carefully to our guide, Sue, as she shared snorkeling tips and important points for spotting dolphins.

I heard the water was 25 to 30 meters deep, and since I had very little snorkeling experience, I was initially anxious. However, I gathered my courage and jumped into the sea, and it was like a dream world! Beautiful shades of blue spread out before my eyes, and dolphins were swimming all around. They were making sounds that were so clear I could hear them without straining my ears. I even got to see a baby dolphin, and later, I successfully encountered a sea turtle! The sea turtle was swimming leisurely at a distance that felt almost within reach.

After swimming a lot, I was quite tired and ended up sleeping soundly on the bus ride back, but it was a satisfying kind of fatigue that filled my heart. This was the best memory of my trip to Hawaii.

クジラもイルカもウミガメも見れました！
ここ数日は海が荒れていて波が高かったりイルカに会えなかったりしたと聞いていて、心配だったのですが、この日は幸いおだやかな波。朝が大変早いのでうつらうつらとしそうなところを、ガイドのスーさんからシュノーケリングのコツやイルカを見るときの注意点などをしっかり聞きます。

水深25〜30mと聞いて、シュノーケリング経験はほとんどなかったため最初は不安だったのですが、意を決して海に飛び込んでみれば、まさに夢のような世界！
美しい水色が視界一面に広がる中、あちこち行き交うイルカたちがそこにいました。
イルカたちはずっとキュウキュウと鳴いていて、耳をすまさなくても聞こえるほどでした。赤ちゃんイルカにも会えたし、その後ウミガメにも遭遇成功！ウミガメはまるで手が届きそうなくらいの距離でゆったり悠々と泳いでいました。

たくさん泳いで結構疲れて帰りのバスでは爆睡してしまったのですが、心が満たされた心地いい疲労でした。
ハワイ旅行で一番の思い出です。

I signed up for this for my wife’s parents, who love the ocean. As soon as we returned to the accommodation, they exclaimed, "It was absolutely amazing!!" On that day, they couldn’t see the sandbar and the water level was only up to their knees, but it seems they thoroughly enjoyed snorkeling with colorful fish and sea turtles. I heard that some elderly participants didn’t go into the water but were able to ride on a canoe-like boat to watch the fish and sea turtles. The breakfast also seemed to be delicious.

海の好きな嫁のご両親のために申し込みました。宿に戻ってくるなり「ものすごく良かった！！」と大喜びでした。この日はサンドバーは見られずひざ下位までの水位だったそうですが色とりどりの魚やウミガメとたわむれシュノーケリングを満喫したようです。ご高齢の方も参加されていて海には入らずカヌーのようなボートに乗せてもらって魚やウミガメウォッチングを見ていられたと聞きました。朝食も美味しかったようです。

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/水中写真付き＞

Snorkeling with a friendly guide. 親切なガイドさんとシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: juniper

The guide was fluent in Japanese, so anyone can participate with confidence. They kindly taught us how to snorkel in detail, which was very helpful. It's great that you can ask questions whenever you don't understand something. Hanauma Bay is rich in fish, and you can encounter a wide variety of them, making it feel like you're swimming in an aquarium. I was surprised that the fish didn't flee even when people were around, as it is a no-fishing zone.

This is a highly recommended tour where you can fully enjoy snorkeling!!!

I hope the coral will recover soon and that Hanauma Bay will return to its original beauty.

ガイドさんは日本語が達者なので誰でも安心して参加できます。シュノーケルのやり方を丁寧に教えてくれてとても親切でした。わからないことはすぐに聞けるのが良いです。ハナウマ湾は魚影が濃く
多種多様な魚に出会うことができ、まるで水族館の中で泳いでいるかのよう。
漁業禁止地区とのことで、人を見ても逃げない魚たちにビックリ。

シュノーケリングを存分に楽しめる、お勧めのツアーです！！！

サンゴが蘇り、早く元の美しいハナウマ湾に戻ると良いなと思いました。

I included it in the original tour for the children's honeymoon. Since it departs in the afternoon, you can enjoy a leisurely brunch in the morning. A while ago, Hanauma was popular, but now it's a hot tour! The beautiful sea is breathtaking! It's also a meaningful use of time.

子供の新婚旅行のオリジナルツアーに組み込みました。
午後出発なので朝はゆっくりとブランチができます。
一昔前はハナウマ人気でしたが、今アツイツアーですね＾＾
きれいな海に感動もの！時間的にも有意義です

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＞

There were more dolphins than I expected! ★ 予想以上のイルカの数でした★

Reviewed by: ryomai

The boat ride from the port took about an hour. There were a few waves, which made the boat ride enjoyable, and it felt like no time at all as we admired the mountains of Hawaii that we usually can't see. However, we were starting to worry about whether we would actually see the dolphins. The captain and crew were restless, and so were the participants.

When we looked at the surface of the water, we saw many sparkling things. It was the dorsal fins of the dolphins! We quickly put on our snorkels, and at the call of our class representative, Su-san, we jumped into the sea. As we desperately followed Su-san, we saw a family of dolphins swimming gracefully beneath us! The dolphins that came one after another were a bit smaller and differently colored than those we see in aquariums, and they were so cute.

Moreover, another group of dolphins arrived, and we were able to swim with them multiple times! Swimming in the ocean, where we couldn't hear any outside sounds and could only hear the voices of the dolphins, was truly mystical and an unforgettable experience.

Satisfied to have encountered the dolphins, we moved to the shallows to enjoy snorkeling freely. We encountered countless fish and even a sea turtle, surrounded by the great nature of Hawaii, and we savored a truly luxurious time.

This experience made me feel like I could work hard again starting tomorrow to see the sea and mountains of Hawaii someday. Thank you very much!

港からボートで約1時間の移動。少し波があったので、ボートに乗っているのも楽しく、普段は見ることができないハワイの山々を眺めながらの移動だったのであっという間でした。
ただ、なかなかイルカ先生の姿が見えず
…。
本当に出逢えるのか、私たち夫婦に不安がよぎった頃でした。
船長とクルーがそわそわ。参加者もそわそわ。
水面を見たら、キラキラしたものがたくさんあったのです。イルカ先生の背びれでした！
急いでシュノーケルを着け、学級委員長のすーさんの声で、一気に海へ。必死にすーさんについて行くと、私たちの下をイルカの家族がすいすい泳いでいました！次から次へと来るイルカは、水族館で見るものより少し小さく、色も違ってとっても可愛かったです。
しかも、また違う群れがやって来て、何度もイルカ達と一緒に泳ぐことができました！
外の音が聞こえない海の中で、イルカの声だけを聞きながら一緒に泳いだのは、本当に神秘的で、忘れられない体験です。

イルカ先生と出逢えて大満足した私たちは、浅瀬に移動して自由にシュノーケリングを楽しみました。数え切れないほどの魚と、ウミガメ先生にも出逢い、ハワイの大自然に囲まれて、とても贅沢な時間を味わいました。

いつかまたハワイの海や山を見るために、明日からまた仕事がんばろうと思えるような体験でした。
ありがとうございました！！

3-Hour Waikiki Deluxe Turtle Snorkel Sail with Lunch - Hawaii Nautical

Amazing tour highly recommended!

Reviewed by: steve

We originally booked turtle bay tour but were upgraded to a dolphin tour on a different day as the tour ended up not running on the day. The tour bus picked us up at 7am from the hotel free of charge to the destination which roughly took about an hour. It was bit of a long drive but the driver was very friendly and continued interesting conversation so was not boring at all.
The vessel was very clean and well equpped. Crews were super friendly and helpful. As we jumped on light breakfast and fruit platters were served. The tour included lunch and 2 alcoholic beverages but better yet they provided 1 dollar beer and 2 dollar cocktails - the cheapest alcohol in hawaii!
The first stop was to watch the dolphins. I think there were at least 50 dolphins. I have never seen dolphins so up close - it was simply magical.
2nd stop was to do the snorkeling. The weather was perfect and the water was so calm and clear almost like an aquarium. After the snorkeling session sandwich bar lunch was served which in my opinion was quite decent - had lots of fresh stuff including the kalua pig.
After the lunch, we were taken back to the shore then transferred back to the hotel by around 1pm. Although the tour was quite packed we still had half a day afterwards.
The tour was overall very well organised and action packed that we did not have any chance to be bored.
I will definitely come back for more tours with Hawaii Nautical as this was hands down the best snorkeling tour I have experienced.

Reviewed by: Rosendo & Maria

AWESOME TIME... From the van driver, to the diver, to the captain. The staff was incredible. What a way to top off our trip. The snorkeling was amazing, got to see lots of sea turtles and tropical fish, definitely bring your water camera lots of pictures to take almost ran out of space. The catamaran was beautiful, spacious and clean. Plenty of snacks, and the drinks were awesome.. (Check out the Hawaiian Mimosa or try the Mai tai also delicious and refreshing) All inn all it was a great time, no complaints. Would definitely recommend (tip try to do it in the morning it's the best time to catch the turtles active and good visibility) Mahalo guys!

The sandbar was more beautiful than I imagined! It's a place I want to visit again. The weather wasn't very good, so snorkeling was a bit disappointing, but I got to see sea turtles, and I'm very satisfied!

Items needed
- Cash (dollars) for Hanauma Bay entrance fee + tips
- Swimsuit
- Change of clothes
- Bath towel
- Sunscreen

On the day, our guide "Dan" was fluent in Japanese and able to converse normally, which made us feel secure throughout.
Valuables are stored in a large locked container box.
We were also provided with drinking water and snacks.
Dan brought an underwater digital camera, and he uploaded the photos he took to Facebook that night.

During this honeymoon trip to Hawaii, I booked and experienced various optional tours in advance. However, honestly, many of the tours booked through travel agencies were disappointing.
Among them, the only tour I booked myself, the "Hanauma Bay Snorkeling," was extremely satisfying.
I truly realized what a veteran guide's tour should be like.
Even regarding tipping, which is not customary in Japan, I often hesitated in other tours and restaurants, but I was happy to tip Dan.
It was a truly moving tour.
I would love to request it again when I go to Hawaii.

今回のハワイ新婚旅行では、事前にさまざまなオプショナルツアーを予約し体験してきました。しかし、正直、旅行会社を通して予約したツアーはガッカリが多く残念なことも多々ありました。
そのような中、唯一、自分で予約したこの「ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング」は大満足でした。
本当にベテランガイドのツアーとはこういうものだと痛感したほどです。

シュノーケリングクルーズ　イルカやウミガメに出会えるチャンスも！？選べる8時／12時出港プラン＜ハワイアンプレートランチ＆アルコール4杯付き／ワイキキ送迎あり＞

I couldn't participate. 参加できなかった

Reviewed by: hiraoka

I gathered at the Hyatt Regency Hotel on ○○ Street at 6:15 AM, woke up at 5:30, and was at the meeting place 10 minutes early, but the bus didn't arrive. When I asked the hotel staff, I realized it was on the opposite street. I ran to ○○ Street and arrived at the meeting place by 6:17, but there was no one there. Thinking the pickup hadn't arrived yet, I asked other tour company staff present, and they said, "They usually wait for about 10 minutes, so if they haven't come by 30 minutes, you should contact them." So I waited. When they still didn't come, I called the number listed, but it was too early to connect since it was outside of business hours, and the voicemail was in English and quite fast, so I couldn't understand it. I had no choice but to wait until the business hours started at 7:00 to call again, but there was only English-speaking staff, and we couldn't communicate. I explained the situation at the Japanese counter of the Hyatt Regency Hotel, and when they spoke on my behalf, they said, "We waited for about 5 minutes, but since no one came, we left. You can either change the date or try to catch a taxi right now, but it might be too late." Since I had booked optional tours online for other days, I couldn't change it, and I didn't even know the tour location, so I had no choice but to cancel.

Other tour participants were waiting for their people to arrive, and if the phone had connected, I might have made it in time. Above all, the fact that there wasn't a single staff member who could speak Japanese was the most frustrating part.

I reserved a rotating restaurant with a night view on this site, but there were no Japanese-speaking staff there either, and the transportation to Tantalus was not scheduled properly, so it ended up being the same time as the meal. I wanted to go to Tantalus more than have dinner, but I couldn't go, and I really thought I shouldn't have made a reservation on this site!

朝6:15にハイアット・リージェンシーホテルの○○通り集合で、5:30に起きて10分前には集合場所にいたが、バスが来なくてホテルの人に聞くと反対の通りだったことに気がついた。走って○○通りまで行って6:17には集合場所にいたが、姿はなく、まだお迎え来てないのだと思い、そこにいた他のツアー会社の人などにきくと、『大体10分くらいしかは待ってくれるから30分まで待っても来なかったら連絡してみればいいよ』と言われたので待っていた。それでも来なかったので書かれていたところに電話すると、時間が早いため営業時間外で繋がらず留守電も英語でかなり早いためききとれなかった。仕方なく営業開始時間の7:00まで待ってから電話すると、英語スタッフしか居なくて私たちでの会話は無理だった。ハイアット・リージェンシーホテルの日本語カウンターで経緯を説明し、会話してもらうと、『5分くらい待ったが来なかったので出発した。日にちを変えるか、今からすぐにタクシーを拾ってきてもギリギリ間に合うか分からないくらい』とのことだった。他の日もネットでオプショナルツアーを入れていたため変更はきかず、ツアー開催場所も分からないくらいのでやむを得ず断然した。
他のツアーの人は人が来るまで待っていてくれていたし、電話が繋がればすぐに行って間に合ったかもしれないし、なにしろ、日本語が話せるスタッフが一人もいない事が一番嫌だった。

このサイトで夜景の見える回転式レストランを予約したが、そこにも日本語が話せるスタッフはいなくて付いてくるはずのタンタラスの丘送迎も時間設定ができず、勝手に食事開始時間と同じになってしまうため食事よりもタンタラスの丘に行きたかったのに行けず、本当にこのサイトで予約しちゃだめだ！と思った。
