All Reviews for Oahu Snorkeling Tours

We participated as a family. Since my family isn't very good at English, we were a bit anxious about going out to sea, but my fourth-grade son had a blast and we were able to create wonderful memories. There were staff members who spoke Japanese perfectly, which made us feel at ease. It has become a place we want to visit again. Thank you!

家族で参加しました
英語が得意ではない家族だったので、海に出る事が少し不安でしたが、
小学4年生の息子も思いっきり楽しめて、最高の思い出が作れました。
日本語バッチリのスタッフさんもいて安心できました。
また訪れたい場所になりました。
アリガト〜

Although it was just a shuttle service, I really appreciated the effort to help us get in early to Hanauma Bay, which requires a specified entry time.

送迎だけですが、入場時間の指定が必要なハナウマベイへ早く入れるためにがんばってもらえて、とても助かりました。

On this day, the water level was deep, and when I got off the boat, the water was up to my chest. I was a bit disappointed because I had imagined a white sandy beach. However, I switched gears and decided to try banana boating for the first time in my 60s! I screamed with excitement after a long time, and it was so much fun. They also took me to a spot where there were turtles. Next time, I want to go when the sandy beach is visible.

この日の水位は深く、船から降りると胸まで水がありました。
白い砂浜を想像していたので、ちょっとガッカリでした。
気持ちを切り替えて、60代で初のバナナボートに挑戦！
久しぶりにキャーキャー叫んで、とても楽しかったです。
亀のいるポイントにも連れて行ってくれました。
次は砂浜の出る時に行きたいです。

I read the reviews and thought, "I want to see dolphins, but I'm worried about seasickness." However, I gathered my courage and signed up.

In conclusion, as long as I took motion sickness medication, I was fine. I went with my family, and other families were fine too. It seems that standing at the front of the boat and looking out into the distance helps prevent seasickness.

There were also Japanese staff members, which made me feel very secure participating in the activity.

Although it was written that we wouldn't be able to swim with the dolphins, on the day of the event, we were able to swim with them. I was surprised to see the dolphins swimming quite deep. Even while the boat was moving, the dolphins swam alongside us as if they were racing, creating the best memories.

口コミを見て「イルカが見たいけど、船酔いが心配だなぁ」と思っていました。
しかし、勇気を出して申し込みをしました。
結論、乗り物酔い防止の薬を飲んでいれば、大丈夫でした。
家族で行きましたが、他の家族も大丈夫でした。
船の先端に立って、遠くを眺めていると酔いにくいそうです。

日本人スタッフの方もおり、とても安心して参加することができました。

イルカと一緒に泳げないと書いてありましたが、当日は一緒に泳ぐことができました。
かなり深いところをイルカが泳いでいて、びっくり。
船を走らせている時も、イルカが船に競い合うように泳いでいて、最高の思い出になりました。

I almost drowned a little and got a cut, but the response from our guide, Izumi, was great. Thank you very much.

ちょっと溺れかけたのと、切り傷をしてしまい、ガイドさんのいづみさんの対応が、よかったです、
ありがとうございました。

I have gone on several excursions in my travel experiences. This excursion was extremely organized, the people were remarkably friendly and the amount of activities to keep you engaged were fantastic.

The weather was rainy and cloudy, but the day was filled with adventure and family time. It made for a perfectly beautiful day. Captain Bobs was safe and comical and the lunch was great!

I used the first flight on the morning of December 30th for the New Year's holiday. The captain spoke in English, but then a female staff member named Izumi kindly explained everything in Japanese, which made my first snorkeling experience worry-free.

The weather was a bit cold, and it rained partway through, but not only were we able to see many sea turtles, we also got to swim with them.

There were other tours with various options that I considered, but I'm glad I chose Captain Cruise!

年末年始（12月30日）の朝一便を利用しました。
キャプテンは英語を使用されますがその後で女性スタッフのイズミさんが日本語で丁寧に説明してくださり、初めてのシュノーケリングも不安なく体験できました。

天候は少し寒く、雨も途中降ったりしましたが、ウミガメを沢山見ることができただけでなく、一緒に泳ぐことも出来ました。

色んなオプションが付く他社ツアーもあり、悩みましたが、キャプテンクルーズを選んでよかったです！

Wonderful experience swimming with the turtles. But I was struggling with light headedness and nausea. The lifeguard and crew were so caring and sensitive. They encouraged me to stay out in the water as long as I felt confident but then took me back to the boat via the surf board when it was too much. I was given a ginger ale to sip on and the team frequently checked on me. Always encouraging and supportive. I never felt shamed or ridiculed. Thank you

We had a wonderful family trip! The experience was smooth and enjoyable, and the crews were exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout. Highly recommend for families looking for a relaxing and fun getaway!

The hosts were knowledgeable, accommodating, and so kind. We loved the stress free experience.

I participated in early December, and unfortunately, the weather was quite chilly and rainy, but I still had a great time. There were beautiful coral reefs nearby, and fish were swimming right in front of me. Just peeking into the water was captivating, and while enjoying other activities, time flew by quickly. During the round trip to the sandbar, there was also a performance by the crew, and the captain and crew's stories were entertaining as well.

参加日は12月初旬あいにく肌寒く、雨も降るイマイチな天候でしたがそれでも存分に楽しめました。
綺麗なサンゴ礁が近くにあり、目の前を魚が回遊しています。海中を覗くだけで夢中になれますし、他のアクティビティも堪能していると、あっという間に時間がなくなります。
サンドバーまでの往復中も、クルーの演奏もあり、また船長やクルーたちのお話も面白かったです。

The sandbar itself was stunning, and the live Hawaiian music added a perfect island vibe. Equipment was clean and easy to use, and the crew provided helpful tips to make the most of each activity.

Great snorkeling spot! Not many turtles but that can't be controlled! Some other groups saw a lot!

This is the second time we took this activity in Honolulu. My kids love the banana boat and the bumper tube so much . Will come again next time.

It was the first snorkeling experience for our two children, but with the reassuring Japanese guide and the lessons provided, the whole family was able to enjoy it, making it a memorable option for us. Thank you very much for your help.

子供2人が初シュノーケリングでしたが、安心の日本語ガイドと講習もあり、家族全員で楽しめ記憶に残るオブションになりました。大変お世話になりました。

Fortunately, we were blessed with good weather, had a great guide on a new boat with a small group, and even encountered dolphins!
Elementary school children can participate with peace of mind!

Thank you, Captain Jason, Crew Lucas & Ryuichi, for a wonderful trip.

運が良いことに、天候にも恵まれ、新しい船で、少人数でばっちりガイドしてもらって、イルカとも出会えました☆
小学生の子供も安心して参加できます！

Thank you Captain Jason, Crew Lucas & Ryuichi for wonderful trip.

Once again this year, I had the pleasure of being taken care of by Chieko-san, and it was a delightful and moving experience. My husband and I are 66 years old, so we were a bit concerned about our physical stamina, but we were amazed by the fish and turtles, and the hour flew by in no time. We were able to see a pair of turtles, and we also saw a turtle coming up to the surface for air. This year, we created the best memories once again.

昨年に引き続き今年もチエコさんにお世話になり楽しく感激しましたよ。主人と私は66歳なので体力的にどうかなと思っていましたが魚や亀に感激してあっという間の1時間でした。ペアの亀を観られたし呼吸のため水面から顔を出す亀もみられたし、今年も最高の思い出ができました。

I was very satisfied with the beautiful sandy beach and activities. I was hoping to see sea turtles, but it was a bit disappointing that I didn't get to see any. The staff were all cheerful and fun people.

きれいな砂浜とアクティビティで大満足です。
ウミガメを期待してましたが、会えなかったのが少し残念です。
スタッフは皆さん明るく楽しい方々でした。

The team was extremely helpful in explaining the events. I brought my wife and in-laws from Japan with us. We felt the Aloha immediately! We were worried about the cloudy morning but just as we set sail the sun came out in during our ride. We got to spend a good amount of time in the sun and enjoyed the music from the performers on board. Tip your performers, people! They can sing all the island tunes 10/10. We will certainly book again for our next trip and bring our kids. Mahalo and many thanks from Seattle, Wa.

Although the weather was unfortunate with rain, I was able to see turtles and manta rays (just their fins, though...) and was once again amazed by the size of the manta rays. The rain made the sea murky, so the coral wasn't visible in its beauty, and I couldn't enjoy the beach due to the tides and changing weather. However, the cheerful Japanese female staff and other staff brightened my mood. All the participants were also cheerful, which made me feel like I was in a tropical paradise. There were many English speakers, and I was disappointed that I couldn't enjoy conversations due to my lack of English skills; it made me think I should study English. On the way back, the captain came to greet us, making it a tour that didn't let the rain get us down.

天候に恵まれず生憎の雨天でしたが、亀やマンタのひれ（ひれのみでしたが・・・）を見ることができマンタの大きさに改めてびっくりしました。
雨で海も濁ってしまい、サンゴはきれいには見えず、ビーチも潮のかげんや天候の変動でか見ることはできませんでしたが、日本人の女性スタッフや他のスタッフも明るく、気持ちが明るくなりました。
参加者も皆さん明るく、南国だな～と思いました。
英語圏の方が多く、会話を楽しみたかったのに英語が出来ず残念、英語を勉強しようかな・・・と感じました。帰りには船長さんがあいさつに来てくれて、雨にも負けずというツアーでした。

I love dolphins, so I have wanted to participate for a long time, and this time I was finally able to join. The staff (especially Joanna and Ryuichi) were very kind and taught me a lot. I was almost a beginner at snorkeling, but it was fun.

Next time, I want to try dolphin swimming too!

イルカが好きなのでずっと参加してみたく、今回初めて参加できました。
スタッフの皆さん（特にJoanna, Ryuichiさん）も親切にいろいろ教えてくださり、シュノーケリングはほぼ初心者でしたが楽しかったです。

次回はドルフィンスイムもやってみたいです！

The itinerary was generally as outlined in the information we received beforehand, so I was able to enjoy it with peace of mind. Specifically, there was a wait of about 10 minutes for the bus transfer, and the duration of our stay at Hanauma Bay was also noted.

概ね事前にいただいていた案内通りの行程だったので、安心して楽しむことができました。
具体的には、バスの送迎時間（10分くらいは待ちました）、ハナウマ湾の滞在時間など。

The sea was beautiful.
It was my first experience.
A mystical space.
I encountered six sea turtles.

The instructors were wonderful, and I had a great time.
Thank you very much.

海は綺麗でした
初めての体験
神秘的な空間
6匹もウミガメに出会えました

インストラクターの方々が素晴らしく、楽しく過ごせました
ありがとうございました

I participated with my family of four: my second-grade daughter, my preschool son, my husband, and myself. It rained the entire time we were in Honolulu, but during this angelic sea tour, it was sunny (though there were a few light showers), and we were able to fully enjoy the beautiful sandbar.

The water at the sandbar was about waist-deep for adults, but it was shallow enough for the kids to stand, which made it safe. We played by floating with our inner tubes and snorkeling to peek into the sea. The water was incredibly clear and beautiful.

At one point, we caught a whiff of delicious grilled meat! My son raved that the hamburger and boiled beans for lunch were the best he had ever tasted!

After that, we went on a sea turtle search! We were able to see several sea turtles surfacing for air, and we even encountered a manta ray!

For the final snorkeling around the coral, my daughter and I participated! The wind was strong, and we were swept by the waves, but with some help, we discovered a sea turtle's resting spot and saw octopuses and fish as well.

We were even treated to drinks and snacks, allowing both of our kids to have a great time.

小2の娘と、年少の息子と夫と私の家族4人で参加しました。ホノルル滞在中、ずーっと雨でしたが、この天使の海のツアー中だけは晴れて（多少、小雨の時もあったけど）、綺麗なサンドバーを満喫できました。
サンドバーは、大人の腰くらいまでは水があったのですが、子供も足がつくので安心。浮き輪つけて浮かんだり、海の中をシュノーケルで覗いたりして遊びました。とにかく海の水が透明できれいでした。
途中から、お肉を焼いてるいい匂い〜！！息子はこのお昼ご飯のハンバーガーと煮豆が一番美味しかった！と大絶賛でした。
その後は海亀探し！海亀の息継ぎを何匹も見れて、なんとマンタにまで遭遇できました。
最後の珊瑚の周りのシュノーケルは、娘と私で参加！風が強くて波に流されたりしましたが、助けてもらって、海亀の寝床を発見したり、タコとかお魚も見れました。
飲み物や、お菓子までおもてなししていただき、子供2人とも楽しく過ごすことができました。

I imagined it would be very crowded, but it was actually quite comfortable. If you arrive early in the morning, you can enjoy the breathtaking views all to yourself. It wasn't that far from Waikiki.

とても混んでいると想像していたがとっても快適。朝一で到着すれば絶景独り占め。ワイキキからでしたがそんなに遠くありませんでした。

Wonderful female captain Hosanna and her crew with tons of experience and warm personalities. We went in November 2025- so many turtles and sealife, great play equipment and knowledgeable crew willing to help ensure our baby girl had a great time, the transportation from Waikiki to the boat launch was clutch! So great all around! And spam masubi and snacks on the boat ride was icing on the cake! Highly recommend 10 out of 10!!

I recommend this hotel in the Ko Olina area. It's within walking distance from the lagoon, where you can enjoy various activities. I also saw a lot of dolphins. I highly recommend it. The staff was friendly and great as well.

コオリナ地区のホテルに泊まる方にはおすすめです。ラーグンから歩ける距離でできるアクティビティです。イルカの群れもたくさん見ました。おすすめです。スタッフもフレンドリーでよかったです。

Girls trip made even better by going on the snorkeling trip! The staff is amazing and definitely recommend everyone to go!!

This was an incredible experience. Fantastic guys who were very funny and hospitable while also very safety conscious and careful! Went back for an afternoon cruise the same day as it was so great!
