I absolutely recommend this. My daughter and I participated together. We arrived at Kona Marina in 45 minutes from Waikiki, and it felt luxurious, like we were the owners of the yacht harbor we see on TV. We boarded the boat with a handsome young man, a dandy captain, and a cute Hawaiian girl guiding us. Coffee, tea, water, and canned drinks were all-you-can-drink. The tour guide mentioned that encountering dolphins was not guaranteed, so I thought it would be okay if we didn't see any. However, within 10 minutes, we heard "dolphins" and rushed to the bow, where a pod of dolphins was swimming, including a mother and baby dolphin swimming closely together. The boat kept a respectful distance as we watched, and while learning that dolphins are nocturnal and swim while sleeping during the day, they jumped and spun in the air. I only had my camera, so I missed the shutter chance since they didn't announce when they would jump, but bringing a video camera would be a good idea.
Next, we challenged ourselves to snorkel. After receiving instructions, we headed into the sea, but I struggled with breathing and ended up sputtering. I finally got the hang of it and looked into the water at a depth of 6 meters, where the Hawaiian girl guided us to a spot where sea turtles were likely to be. We saw five sea turtles swimming! Then, we heard from the boat, "Dolphins are here," and when we looked into the water, there was a dolphin swimming right next to us. We could hear the dolphin's "pee" sound. My daughter and I popped our heads up to signal that we saw it. She asked the Hawaiian girl if she could try diving, so she took off her snorkel and fins, exhaled, and tried free diving. After a few attempts, she struggled to go deeper and felt pain in her ears, so she gave up. The Hawaiian girl demonstrated free diving quite deeply.
For some reason, that day, there were only three of us snorkeling: my daughter, myself, and another girl from Seattle, so we could enjoy it leisurely. Others on the boat were watching us. After that, we had breakfast on the boat, which included chicken, bread, salad, fruit, yogurt, and muffins, and it was all very delicious. I decided that I definitely want to snorkel again next time. Thank you so much, Alan1. I had a truly meaningful time.
絶対絶対オススメです。娘と二人で参加しました。
ワイキキから45分でコナマリーナに到着、テレビで見るようなヨットハーバーまるで自分たちがオーナーであるかのようなリッチな気分で船に乗り込み、イケメン風のお兄さんとダンディなボーン船長とキュートでかわいいハワイ娘の3人が案内してくれます。コーヒー・紅茶・水に缶ジュースは飲み放題です。ツアーの案内にイルカとの遭遇は確約ではありませんと書いてあったので、会えなくても仕方ないかぁと思っていたら、10分もしないうちに「イルカ」という声で船首に出てみるとイルカの群れが泳いでいました、親子イルカまでいます、親子仲良く離れずに泳いでいます、船はつかず離れずで進んでいきます、イルカは夜行性で昼間は寝ながら泳いでいると説明を聞きながら見ていると、空中に飛び3回転スピン・2回転スピンをしてくれました、カメラしかもっていなかったので、今から飛ぶぞと言ってくれない為、シャターチャンスは見逃しましたが、ビデオを持っていくといいですよ。さあいよいよシュノーケルに挑戦、説明を受けいざ海へ、息の吸う吐くがうまくいかず、げぼげぼ、こつをつかみ水深6mの海の中をのぞいてみる、海がめのいそうなスポットへハワイ娘が案内してくれます、海がめが泳いでいる、しかも5頭もいるではないですか、そして船から「イルカがきたよ」との合図に海の中をのぞく、すぐ横にイルカが泳いでいる、「ピー」というイルカの声が聞こえる、娘と二人顔を出して、見たの合図、娘はもぐってみたいとハワイ娘におねだり、シュノーケルをはずし、足ひれをはずし空気をぬいて、素もぐり、うまく沈まない、2.3回トライ少し深くもぐって耳が痛いと断念、ハワイ娘は、素もぐりでかなり深く沈んで手本を見せてくれていました。なぜかこの日はシュノーケルをする人が私と娘ともう1人シアトルから来た娘さんと3人だったので、ゆったりと楽しむことができました。他の人たちは船から、私達をウォチングしていました。その後は船のなか、チキン.パン.サラダ.フルーツ.ヨーグルト.マフインの朝食、とってもおいしかったです。次回も絶対シュノーケルをしたいと心に決めた日でした。Alan1ちゃん本当にありがとうございました。とっても有意義に過ごすことができました。

I participated on September 3rd. There were about 40 spinner dolphins, and we could see them clearly from the boat. We also got to see sea turtles gracefully swimming along the seabed while snorkeling. The kalua pig open sandwich was delicious, and the staff provided attentive guidance. I would like to bring my children next time.
9月3日に参加しました。40頭はいましたね、ハシナガイルカが。船の上からはっきりと見れました。また、海カメも海底を優雅に泳ぐ様がシュノーケルで見れました。カルアピッグのオープンサンドも美味しかったしスタッフも丁寧な案内で、今度は子ども達もつれていきたいです。

It was an absolute pleasure spending the day w/these guys, they were extremely hospitable, made sure we had something to drink as soon as we borded, made sure everyone was entertained and that nobody had empty plates in there hands. There were 2 locations, the first was the sand bar where you could either play volley ball or you can have a practice run with your snorkle gear, we opted for snorkeling even tho there really werent any fish but we managed to keep ourselves occupied. The water is gorgeous! After re-bording the Barefoot I, they had a nice lunch spread out for us, and you can purchase beers for i think about 4 bux a pop. We then moved on to our next location which was a reef, it was the best snorkeling experience i've had, lots of fish, caves, a sea turtle & an octopus (which i didnt get to see), it seemed that we got to spend alot of time in the water which was really kewl! On the way back, the driver was pointing out movie locations and stuff, such as Gilligan's Island

I was drawn to the spiritual concept of "Dolphin & You" and decided to participate.
When I first encountered the dolphins, unfortunately, the timing didn't align for us to swim together, and I was starting to think, "Am I really going to have to go home like this?" However, the leader, Yuriko, and the staff were persistent in their search, and we finally encountered a large pod of dolphins! Just a few inches below me, pairs of baby dolphins and their mothers were swimming! We swam alongside them for a while. Even though I couldn't catch up, they kept coming back, as if they were coming to play with us. There were dolphins winking as they crossed right in front of me and others showcasing impressive spins... they were full of playfulness. I was truly moved.
Additionally, the cheerful staff and Yuriko's engaging talks and attentiveness kept us entertained every second, making me feel like it was "a professional job." I was able to interact with locals, enjoy a homemade lunch with a mini show, and even learn hula from a well-known local teacher. It was all very thoughtful. I felt that the performance was of high quality, well-structured, and based on respect for Hawaiian culture and nature. Given the price, it was definitely not expensive. Thank you, "Dolphin & You"!
「ドルフィン&ユー」さんのスピリチュアルなコンセプトに惹かれて参加しました。
最初にイルカたちに遭遇したときは、残念ながら一緒に泳ぐタイミングが合わず、「もうこれで帰っちゃうのか・・仕方ないかな」と諦めかけていたのですが、リーダーのYurikoさんやスタッフの方たちが粘り強く探してくださって、ついにイルカの大きな群れと遭遇!
自分のほんの数十センチ下を、赤ちゃんイルカとお母さんイルカのペアが、何組も泳いでいます!しばらく平行して泳ぎました。追いつけなくても彼らは繰り返しやってきて、まるで遊びに来てくれているようでした。ウィンクしながら目の前を横切るイルカさんや、見事なスピンを披露してくれるイルカさんも・・彼らは遊び心いっぱいでした。心から感激しました。
それ以外にも、陽気なスタッフと、客を1秒たりとも退屈させないYurikoさんのトークや気配りは、「プロの仕事だなあ」と感じさせました。ローカルの方と触れ合え、お手製ランチにミニshow、現地では有名なフラの先生にフラを習うことができ、至れり尽くせり。ハワイの文化や自然へのリスペクトを基本にしながら、内容も構成も全体によく練られた上質のパフォーマンスであると感じました。これでこの値段は、決して高くはありません。
「ドルフィン&ユー」さん、ありがとうございました!

The sea of heaven. It's truly the best. It feels great! Moreover, there are places where you can walk even if you can't swim, so I had no worries at all. After that, we went snorkeling at the tropical fish and sea turtle spots, but I was so scared at the tropical fish spot that I skipped entering the water at the sea turtle spot. Still, I was satisfied to see a turtle floating by. The fun Hawaiian vibe and the guide's talk really got everyone excited. When my body got wet, even though the temperature was high, it felt so cold that my teeth were chattering. It was about 35 degrees that day... I definitely recommend bringing a jacket. Next time, I want to learn a bit of swimming and participate again!
天国の海。本当に最高です。気持ちがいい!しかも泳げなくても歩けるところなので、全く心配ありませんでした。その後の熱帯魚と海がめスポットでのシュノーケリングでしたが、熱帯魚スポットでびびった私は海がめのスポットでは恐ろしくて入水をパスしました。それでも浮いてきた亀を見れたので満足です。ハワイアンの楽しいノリとガイドさんのトークでものすごく盛り上がりました。体が水にぬれると、気温は高くても歯がガクガクするほど寒く感じました。当日も35度くらいあったのに…是非上着を持参することをお勧めします。今度は少し泳ぎを覚えて、また是非参加したいです!

The memories of walking along the sandbar while gazing at the unbelievably beautiful sea and magnificent nature have become unforgettable.
The staff's response was also very good, and it was a safe and interesting tour.
During snorkeling, we were able to see many fish gathering around the coral. I think there were even more fish than at Hanauma Bay.
Fortunately, we were able to see a sea turtle. If we were luckier, we could have swum with it as well.
Additionally, the service was great, including the option to create a DVD with photos taken by a professional photographer (for an additional fee).
I felt a beauty different from Waikiki and the North Shore, and I think it was the best tour! I definitely recommend participating!

I spent a meaningful time from the morning until early afternoon. The weather was somewhat cloudy, so both the water temperature and the wind were a bit chilly.
I participated last October, and I think it's better to bring a long-sleeved jacket when it's cloudy.
There were quite a few waves, and I enjoyed bodyboarding. The staff provided thorough explanations, and lunch was included, so I was very satisfied.
午前中から昼過ぎまでの時間でしたが、有意義に過ごせました。天候は曇り気味だったので、水温・風共に若干冷たかったです。

We participated as a couple. I had been curious about the sandbar for a long time, and when I found it through a campaign this time, I made a reservation without hesitation. There were quite a few people participating, and we departed from the Kaneohe Bay harbor on two boats. While circling the beautiful sea where we could see the mountains of Kualoa and Chinaman's Hat, we spotted wild sea turtles from the boat. I had imagined the sandbar would be close to the land, but in reality, it suddenly exists in the middle of the ocean, quite far from the shore, surrounded by nothing, and it was more beautiful than I had expected, like a different world! The sea and sand were beautiful, resembling a private beach, and although the time was short, it was a precious experience. We went snorkeling, but there were hardly any fish. A group of older men and women who were on the same boat seemed to be looking forward to playing on the sandbar, but the distance from where the boat stopped to the sandy beach was close, yet the depth was not shallow enough to walk in with clothes on, so they ended up waiting on the boat while everyone else played, which was quite unfortunate. However, the wonderful experience that can only be had here is something I highly recommend! The water is shallow, so it's also recommended for children!
夫婦で参加しました。以前からサンドバーがずっと気になってましたが、今回キャンペーンで見つけ迷わず予約しました。かなり沢山の方が参加していて、カネオへ湾の港から2艘の船で出発しました。クアロアの山々やチャイナマンズハットが見える綺麗な海をぐるっと周りながら、途中野生のウミガメを船の上から見ました。サンドバーは、陸から近い所にあるのを想像してましたが、実際は陸からだいぶ離れた周りに何も無い海の真ん中に突如存在し、そこだけ別世界の様で思っていた以上に綺麗でした!!海も砂も美しくプライベートビーチの様で、時間は短めでしたが貴重な体験が出来ました。シュノーケリングをしましたが、魚はほとんどいませんでした。同じ船に乗ってきた年配の男女数名のグループの方たちが、海には入れないがサンドバーに降りて遊ぶのを楽しみにしてたみたいですが、船が停まった場所から砂浜までの距離が、近いけれど深さが洋服のまま行ける深さでは無く結局サンドバーに降りれずにみんなが遊んでる間船の上で待っていたのがとても可哀想でした。でもここでしか味わえない素晴らしさなので、ぜひ参加して欲しいです!海も浅いので子供さんにもオススメですよ!

There are many tours where you can see wild dolphins, but Dolphin & You is truly recommended. The staff's response is polite, and they can communicate in Japanese, of course. The local staff are kind, so even those who are afraid of the ocean can enjoy themselves with peace of mind.
The snorkeling after seeing the dolphins is enjoyable even for those who have dived at various points before. It has a charm different from diving.
The DVD I purchased turned out great, and it's a wonderful memory. I definitely want to go to Hawaii again and participate!
野生のイルカと会えるっていうツアーは沢山あるけど、ドルフィン&ユーは本当におすすめです。

I participated with a friend on July 19. It was my first time snorkeling and swimming with dolphins, so I was a bit anxious, but it was incredibly fun.
On the day, we weren't able to see many dolphins, but I was really happy that the staff worked hard to find spots where we could see them. Since they are wild dolphins, it's not guaranteed that you'll see them, but we were satisfied to see at least a few.
The hamburgers they grilled on the boat were also really delicious, and it became a wonderful memory. Moreover, everyone on the staff, including Yuriko, was truly kind, and we had a great time.

I participated with a close friend. Since it was both of our first time in Hawaii, we were looking for activities where we could see dolphins, but I was a bit worried because I wasn't confident in my swimming skills. The Japanese guide, Keiko, and the local staff were all very cheerful and kind. This time, based on the captain's decision, we descended the stairs of a catamaran and followed a pod of dolphins while holding onto a rope. I thought I wouldn't be able to chase the dolphins while snorkeling, so this was an unexpected and wonderful method! I heard that now, to protect baby dolphins, they swim fast and it's hard to keep up with them while snorkeling. I was so impressed by the staff who tried to show us the dolphins up close! There were plenty of dolphins, and it was a wonderful time. At the snorkeling spot, there were also turtles, and everyone was really enjoying themselves. The hamburgers were very delicious, and the hula dance lesson was fun. I would love to participate again when I go back to Hawaii.

This was by far the best snorkeling trip my husband and I have ever gone on, partly because of luck, but also because of the knowledgeable crew. When we got on the boat we were informed that we could go to a reef and snorkel or we could swim with dolphins. Apparently the crew was informed that there were an unusual number of dolphins in a small area that day. Everyone agreed on dolphins. We swam with so many dolphins - it was useless to even try to count them. The crew was fun and laid back which made it an even more pleasant experience. Will definately go again if given the opportunity!

The group felt fortunate that besides seeing the Spinner Dolphins, the Bottle Nose Dolphins came so close to the boat, a number of the guys had the urge to get in the water with them. One took videos of this rare occurrence and showed it to friends on the island. The meeting with 3-4 sea turtles were scarey but awesome to see while snorkeling.
The only disappointment was that we lost time and had to cut the snorkeling short and didn't get to use the water slide. It was probably due to the sacrifice of time spent with the dolphins which was fine (changed the outcome of the adventure but not a bad thing).

The purpose of this trip was different, but while browsing the internet, I couldn't help but want to meet dolphins and sea turtles, which made choosing options within my limited time quite difficult.
I had been to Sea Life Park before, and since they offer activities where you can interact and play with dolphins, I thought that might be nice. I also considered scuba diving in the waters of Hawaii since I have diving experience...
I decided on Dolphin & You because, after looking at their website, it seemed like a very eco-friendly tour that was gentle on both people and nature.
It was a great choice!! It felt almost like a waste to go alone. I got to meet dolphins and encountered sea turtles. I didn't realize it at the time, but in the experience DVD I purchased, I discovered a sea turtle snuggling up next to the boat during the final photo session. My camera captured close-ups of the sea turtles and underwater shots of me looking graceful like a mermaid, taken by the accompanying photographer and local boys. I also learned hula while wearing a pareo and enjoyed delicious burgers—everything was perfect.
The most impressive part was the excellent service and thoughtfulness of all the staff. Since it was an early morning trip, we were able to make effective use of our time, and it was a day of complete satisfaction.
Even though the memories of the trip are fading, my passion for dolphins has not cooled down. I absolutely recommend it!
今回の旅の目的は他にあったのですが、ネットを見ているうちに、どうしてもイルカや海亀に会いたくなり、限られた時間でのオプション選びに迷いました。
シーライフパークは前に行ったことがあり、イルカとふれあい、遊べるアクティビティーというのでそれもいいかなとか、ダイビング経験があるので、ハワイの海でのスキューバダイビングにしようかとか・・・
ドルフィン&ユーに決めたのは、ホームページを見て、とてもエコロジーで人にも自然にも優しいツアーのように思えたからです。
大正解!!
一人参加がもったいないくらい。イルカにも出会えたし、海亀にも遭遇。そのときには気づかなかったけど、購入した体験DVDには最後の記念撮影の船の傍らにしっかり寄り添う海亀ちゃんを発見。持参したカメラには、同行のカメラマンやロコボーイが撮ってくれた、海亀の接写、水中での私の姿が人魚のように華麗に。
パレオをつけてフラも習い、おいしいバーガーもいただき、いうことなし。
一番の感激はスタッフ全員のの対応のよさと、思いやりです。
早朝の便だったので、時間も有効に使え、なにもかも大満足の一日でした。
旅の思いでが薄れるのに、いまだイルカ熱はさめません。絶対おすすめです!

Getting out of Waikiki was a great idea and the water is just beautiful! The sandbar was really fun and I got my butt whooped at water volleyball! A big round of applause the fantastic crew! Thank you and I cannot wait to come again!
