It was sunny, but due to strong winds, we were advised to do stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) on the river, and if we wanted to go to the ocean, we would switch to kayaking. We changed to kayaking.
During our free time in the morning, we rented bicycles and went to Lanikai Beach. In the afternoon, we went to Flat Island by kayak.
Both the free time and the tour were a lot of fun, and we thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful ocean in Hawaii! Thank you to Ryusei, Tomo, and all the staff. I would love to go again!
晴れていましたが強風なので、SUPをするなら川で、海に出たいならカヤックと言われ、カヤックに変更になりました。
午前中の自由時間は自転車を借りてラニカイビーチへ。午後カヤックでフラットアイランドに行きました。
自由時間もツアーもとても楽しく、ハワイのきれいな海を大満喫できました!
りゅうせいさん、トモさんはじめスタッフの方々、ありがとうございました。また行きたいと思います!

I wanted to experience SUP at Kailua Beach, but unfortunately, due to strong winds, we ended up having the experience on a river instead. After the SUP experience, we went to Kailua Beach, but the wind was so strong that the sand blowing around was painful. I understood that this was unavoidable. The guide also mentioned, "You wouldn't make any progress in the ocean either."
During the SUP experience on the river, the sky was cloudy, which allowed me to focus on SUP without worrying too much about sunburn. It seems that without waves, it's easier to ride. The guide told us, "The ocean and the river are completely different," so if I have the chance next time, I would like to challenge myself with SUP in the ocean.
After SUP, we had about two hours of free time, including lunch, and fortunately, it cleared up in the afternoon, so I enjoyed bodyboarding at Kailua Beach. The water temperature was just right, and with the wind, there were decent waves, making bodyboarding a lot of fun. The beautiful scenery of Kailua Beach, which is different from Waikiki Beach, was also great.
カイルアの海でSUP体験したかったのですが、残念ながら強風の為に
川での体験となってしまいました。
SUP体験後にカイルアビーチに行きましたが、本当に風が強くて吹き
飛ばされた砂が痛いくらい。これじゃ仕方ないと納得。
ガイドさんも「海に出ても進まないので」と言われてました。
川でのSUP体験中は曇り空。おかげで日焼けをあまり気にせずSUPに
集中する事ができました。波が無い分、乗りやすいみたいです。
ガイドさんからは「海と川では別もの」と言われてたので、今度機会が
あれば、海でのSUPにチャレンジしたいです。
SUP後は昼食含めて2時間ほど自由行動ですが、午後は晴れてくれたので
カイルアビーチでボディボード遊びに興じました。
水温も適度で、風がある分波もそこそこ、ボディボードが楽しくて。
ワイキキビーチとは違った、カイルアビーチの素晴らしい景色も
良かったですよ。

I hesitated about participating alone, but I'm really glad I tried it! First, there is time for the instructor to explain in detail how to use the paddle and the precautions. After that, we practice in the river before heading out to the ocean. It was clear that the instructor is very knowledgeable about the waves and wind, which made me feel safe and reassured. If you move as instructed, you can't go wrong!
For those who will be taking the SUP lesson, I prepared various things like a camera, hat, bath towel, and mat, but when we head out to the ocean, it's hands-free! I was told by the instructor several times to come with a strong mindset (laughs). The staff were all really bright and energetic, making it a fun memory in Kailua. I will definitely go again!
一人参加は迷いましたが、トライして本当に良かったです‼︎ まず、インストラクターの方から細かくパドルの使い方や注意事項を説明してくれる時間があります。その後 川で練習をしてから海へ出ます。インストラクターさんは波や風の事を大変熟知しておられるのだなというのが良くわかり安心しできました。言う通りに動けば間違い無し‼︎
これからサップレッスンを受けられる方へ、カメラや帽子やバスタオルや敷物…などなど色々私は準備しましたが海へ出る時は手ぶらです!強い気持ちを持って来て下さい←と何度もインストラクターさんに言われました(笑)スタッフの皆様本当に明るく元気でカイルアでの楽しい思い出になりました。また行きます‼︎

We participated in a SUP tour as a couple. The weather and wind were both good, and we were able to reach the island across the way. Along the way, we encountered a sea turtle, which was a great experience. The woman who guided us was lively and made it fun. In the afternoon, we were able to rent bikes and visit Lanikai Beach, so we were very satisfied.

This time I opted for a private lesson. I had the same coach as last time, and I was able to enjoy a relaxed one-on-one lesson. Luckily, I even got to take a photo with a sea turtle! I couldn't help but buy the image CD as well. Waikiki Beach has gentle waves, so beginners can enjoy stand-up paddleboarding too.

My daughters and I had a great time The tour bus picked us up on time . The tour guide /driver provided us a lot of information and history about the island, restaurants and all important sites we drive by . He was was funny too . He answered every ones questions.He allowed us enough time for breaks and photos. We had an amazing time at the Waterfall, my youngest had a foot surgery last year and she can’t walk too fast , we where having a great time swimming in the waterfall pool that we lost track of time . We had 15 minutes to make back to the bus , knowing my youngest can’t walk too fast or run my oldest said “ I’ll have him wait mom “ and took off running ( she runs track and cross country) . We had to be back by 12pm , we ( my youngest and I) made by 12:05 , My oldest daughter was happy the driver waited for us , we all were :). Then we drove to the snorkeling site , the tide was low and it was too rocky, I have never snorkel and I’m not a great swimmer, so we walked up to do some shopping and had a fresh coconut. We made our last stop at Haleiwa, the driver recommended some restaurants . The girls and I had a wonderful time , we ate and did some shopping. He was on time to pick us up . On the way back to the hotel we were tired and feel asleep. Overall we had a great time, we visited a few places and I didn’t have to drive through all that traffic I feel bad I forgot the drivers name , He was knowledgeable and I felt safe with him behind the wheel while the girls and I enjoy the activities and sites . The only reason I didn’t rate outstanding is because the snorkeling was not fun , the waves were too strong and the tide was too low , too rocky, but no one can really control that :)

The board was large and thick, different from those used for surfing. Once you find your balance, standing up is easy, but paddling requires quite a bit of physical strength, and I felt that women might need to put in a little extra effort to gain speed.
During the lesson, it felt more like a stroll on the water without riding the waves, but when I actually looked at the beach, I saw several people surfing on their SUPs, so there might be various applications for it.
板は大きく分厚くサーフィンのものとは別でした。バランスさえ取れれば立つのは簡単ですが、パドルを漕ぐのに結構体力が要り、女性は少し頑張らないとスピードが出にくいように感じました。
レッスンでは波に乗ることなく海上をお散歩する感じですが、実際ビーチを見ると、SUPで波乗りしている方を何回か見かけたので色々応用があるのかもしれません。

Due to abnormal weather, we had to switch to a river experience instead of the ocean. In the morning, we had free time, so I explored the beach by bike. For lunch, I had a rather average pizza that felt very American, and then we headed to the experience. The strong winds made the return quite challenging, but our guide shared various explanations about the surrounding facilities and plants, which helped my 65-year-old mother complete the experience without falling into the water. It's just a shame about the weather. I would like to try the ocean on a sunny day in the future.
異常気象で海が大荒れのため川での体験になりました。
午前中はフリータイムにしてもらったので、自転車でビーチを散策。
お昼は米国っぽい可もなく不可もないピザを食べて、いざ体験へ。
風が強かったので帰りは中々大変でしたが、ガイドさんがいろいろと周辺の施設や植物などの説明など語りかけてもらったので、65歳の母も水に落ずにしっかり完走することができました。天気だけがとても残念です。

The lesson method is somewhat forceful for beginners. We understand English, but it seems the instructor found it tedious to explain, as they rushed through without much explanation, insisting we learn by doing. I signed up hoping to create wonderful memories with a long-time friend, but since it was at the beach and there was only one instructor, I can't say I felt completely at ease. The session was also shorter than the time stated in the materials. The rash guard felt like just a T-shirt, and it became somewhat heavy when wet. It's strange that there are only positive reviews, perhaps due to the Japanese tendency. While we were able to ride the waves, I have to rate it lower for the peace of mind aspect. We hope for a safe and comfortable trip.
初心者にはやや強引なレッスン方法。
私たちは英語がわかるけどインストラクターの方は説明するのが面倒くさいのか、あまり説明すらなく体で覚えろとばかりにどんどん進んでいきます。今回は長い付き合いの友人と最高の思い出作りにと思い申し込みましたが、海だしインストラクターが一人しかついて居らっしゃらないので安心して出来たかと言えば…。資料に乗っていた時間より短かったですし。
ラッシュガードもただのTシャツ?という感じで水を含むとやや重いです。
日本人の性格なのか、良い口コミしかないのが不思議です。
波には乗れたけど、安心面として評価は低めに設定させて頂きます。
私たちは安心で快適な旅を希望します。

My first paddleboarding experience, I’m 60 and my wife is trying it for the first time. There was a brief lecture, but experience is what matters most. We had a lesson just for the two of us from a teacher who spoke broken Japanese, and then we headed out to the sea.
It was quite challenging to maintain balance. Even when I finally managed to stand, it was difficult to paddle and move forward. Surprisingly, my wife was able to stand up quite easily. I’m glad we had a kind teacher.

This is the tour for people who like to be on there own once they get there. This is broken into two parts morning activity and afternoon activity. You have a fully narrated ride over to the North Shore telling you virtually everything about the island. Also all landmarks are pointed out. You arrive get snacks if needed. You are then dropped off at your first activity. The falls etc. Pk up time is set you meet back at bus and your off to bike,kayak,shop or lunch or whatever. Your pk up time is set for your hassle free ride back to waikiki. All fully narrated back. Worth every penny. AC was our guide and knew everything about the island. Was the highlight of our trip.

I requested this SUP lesson because I wanted to enjoy the ocean in Hawaii, even though I had no surfing experience. The instructor wasn't fluent, but he taught me carefully in Japanese, which allowed me to paddle smoothly once we got out on the water.
And to my surprise, we encountered a sea turtle while paddling! I was told that it's quite rare to see one at this time of year, so it was a valuable experience.
One downside was that the reception location was hard to find. This time, it was at Gray's Beach, but there was no sign with the word "veltra" anywhere, so I was confused about what to do. It would have been helpful to know in advance what kind of sign to look for at the reception.

先生はペラペラではないけれど日本語で丁寧に教えて下さったので、海に出てからもスムーズにパドルを漕ぐことが出来ました。

ひとつ残念だったのは、受付の場所が分かりづらかったこと。今回はGray's beach受付だったのですが、「veltra」の文字がどこにも無かったのでどうすればいいか迷いました。事前にどういう看板の受付なのか教えて頂けると良かったです。

Beach was beautiful, but it felt that the time was too short. Would've liked it longer. Catamaran cruise is included with this. Same trip if you purchase the Catamaran cruise by itself. You get two in one but it shortens your time at the beach. And sadly we were not told this, so we did 2 Catamaran trips which were exactly the same. No difference. Secret beach itself was beautiful with hammocks, kayaks, etc available.

Instructor Mat taught us kindly and patiently. The lesson was mainly in English (though he seems to speak a little Japanese), but that wasn't a problem at all. At first, when I mentioned surfing, I responded with paddle surfing (I might have been wrong in using that term), and it seemed he didn't catch the "paddle" part, so the surfing lesson began. I realized this halfway through and asked to switch to a stand-up paddle lesson, but he handled it without any annoyance. I participated with my daughter, and both of us were able to stand up successfully. We even encountered a sea turtle during the lesson, which was a lot of fun!
講師Matが丁寧に優しく教えてくれました。主に英語(日本語も少しは話せるようです)でしたが、特に問題ありませんでした。最初サーフィンと言われ、パドルサーフィン(この言い方がそもそも間違っていたのかも)と回答したところ、パドルという部分が聞こえなかったらしく、サーフィンのレッスンが始まりました。途中で気が付きスタンドアップパドルレッスンに変更してもらいましたが、嫌な顔せず対応してくれました。娘と一緒に参加しましたが娘も私も無事立つことができましたし、レッスン中ウミガメにも遭遇しとても楽しかったです。
Thank you for the four-star review. I apologize for the misunderstanding regarding the stand-up paddling lesson being confused with a surfing lesson. I'm glad you mentioned it right away. Paddle surfing typically involves "riding the waves" on a stand-up paddleboard, but for beginners, surfing can be quite challenging. That's why we have named it a stand-up paddling lesson. It's truly exciting to see sea turtles, isn't it? You were very lucky! I'm glad you and your child enjoyed it together! We look forward to your next visit!

Additionally, since the photo and video services are sold per person, they primarily focus on individual photo shoots, and group photos are generally not taken. For customers who did not make a request, photos are taken randomly and can be purchased after the lesson. As we do not sell the photo service ourselves, we kindly ask you to contact the local operating company directly for inquiries.
Thank you very much for your valuable feedback during your busy schedule.

この度は、ツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございます。
しかしながら、ご満足いただけるサービスを提供できませんでしたこと、心よりお詫び申し上げます。
お写真について催行会社に確認しましたところ、当日現場におりました他社の写真サービスの会社にてレッスンの前に写真をご購入希望のお客様からリクエストがあった場合、そのお客様を中心に撮影するそうです。また、写真・ビデオのサービスは一人当たりで販売しているため個人の写真の撮影を中心に行っているそうですので、基本的にはグループ写真は撮影しておりません。リクエストされなかったお客様の写真につきましてはランダムに撮影しており、レッスン後に購入が可能とのことでした。写真サービスにつきましては弊社にて販売がございませんため、恐れ入りますが、現地催行会社に直接お問合せいただきますようお願い申し上げます。
お忙しい中、貴重なご投稿を賜りまして、誠にありがとうございました。

This tour was awesome! We had plenty of time to do the waterfall hike and swim in the morning, then a relaxing lunch hour, then AMAZING surfing lessons with Uncle Bryan's very capable instructors. Honestly one of the best experiences of my life!

After completing the check-in and waiting under the designated beach umbrella, I suddenly noticed that the instructor had taken a seat behind me. Are you a ninja??? The instructor was Aiza, and of course, Japanese was okay.
We started with a 10-minute land lesson by the beach, and then it was time to hit the sea. Standing up was difficult, and just when I thought I finally managed to stand, I fell into the water. So salty!!
Unfortunately, there was no photographer at that moment, so this moment wasn’t captured.
After the photographer arrived, I took on the challenge again. I somehow managed to stand for 16 seconds (photo evidence). Amazing!! The photographer didn’t miss the chance to snap the shot. Truly a pro.
Next was stand-up paddleboarding. I realized again how stiff my body is. I wanted to ride the waves, but I couldn’t quite manage it. A few times, I felt like I was riding a little bit. It felt great being pushed forward by the waves. I guess surfers must love that feeling.
Before I knew it, an hour and a half had passed, and it was time to wrap up. It had been a while since I was at the sea, and stand-up paddleboarding was more challenging than I expected. I thought it would be even more fun once I could stand properly.
受付を済ませ指定されたビーチパラソルの下で待っていると、
いつの間にか、後ろの席にインストラクターが座っていました、あなたは忍者か???
インストラクターはアイザさんでした。勿論日本語OKです。
ビーチサイドで10分の陸上レッスン、その後、いざ海へ。
立つのも難しい、やっと立ったと思ったら、海中へ、ドボン。しょっぱ~い!!
残念ながら、カメラマンが居なかったので、これは記録に残りませんでした。
カメラマン到着後、二度目の挑戦。なんとか16秒(写真判定)立てたぞ~い。
すごいぞ!! カメラマンも逃さずシャッターを切ってくれました。さすがプロ。
後はスタンドダウンパドルです。改めて身体の硬さに気付きました。
波に乗ろうと思いながら中々乗れません。数回、ちょとだけ乗れた気分に。
ググットと波に後から押されて進んでいく感じが良いです。
きっとサーファーはああ言う感じが好きなんだろうな。
あっという間に1時間半が過ぎ、終了です。
久しぶりの海で、思ったより難しいスタンドアップパドル、
しっかり立てる様になったらもっと楽しいんだろうな、何て思いました。

We were a bit anxious about what our first surfing experience would be like since we don't usually exercise and had no prior knowledge of surfing, but thanks to our instructor, the photographer, and the waves in Waikiki, it turned into a fun and wonderful memory.
Our instructor was a cheerful and polite person who spoke Japanese. For the first 10 minutes, we learned on the beach about safety precautions, where to position ourselves on the board, how to paddle, how to stand, and where to look. The following 50 minutes were spent surfing in the ocean. Once we made it out to the waves on our own, we adjusted our position based on the instructor's guidance, who chose the waves for us. I was able to stand on the board and ride about five waves, and within less than an hour, I could pose for the camera with an "Aloha" sign and hold hands with my wife.
Experiencing the sensation of riding the waves for the first time and feeling the power of nature was incredibly moving, especially when we reached the shore! Paddling back out was a bit tough for us since we don't usually exercise, but my wife had the instructor pulling her out, so that was not a problem at all (laughs).
普段運動をしておらず、サーフィンの予備知識もない私達にとってどの様な時間を過ごすことになるものかなと不安もありつつ初サーフィンに申込みましたが、先生とカメラマン、ワイキキの波のおかげで楽しくて素敵な思い出になりました。
先生は日本語も話せる丁寧で陽気な方。
最初の10分は浜で、注意事項やボードの乗る位置、こぎ方、立ち方、視線をどこに向けるか等を教えてもらいました。その後の50分は海で波乗りです。
自力で沖にでたら先生の指示で向きを整え、先生が波を選び、先生の指示でこいで波に乗ります。合計で5回ぐらい波に乗ったボードに立つことができ、カメラマンに向かってアロハポーズや妻と手をつなぐことも1時間足らずでできるようになりました。
波に乗るという感覚を初体験し、自然の力を感じることができ、岸まで到達してしまったときはとても感激しました!
沖に戻るまでのパドリングは、普段運動をしていない私達には少ししんどかったのですが、妻の方は先生が沖までひっぱってくれてましたので、その点も問題なしですね(笑)
Thank you very much for the 5-star review! We're glad to hear that you had a wonderful time! When you visit Hawaii again, please be sure to use our services! We also offer board rentals, so feel free to inquire directly at the desk. We look forward to seeing you again!

It was a trip with six people from three generations of our family, but only my husband, son, and daughter participated in paddle surfing. Meanwhile, my parents and I were able to sit under a parasol reserved for tour participants and watch.
The kids fell a couple of times, and my husband fell five or six times, but they all came back quite tired after using a lot of leg muscles. While watching, they were all excited and said, "I want to try!!" but it seems that there's a difference between watching and actually doing it.
親子3世代6人での旅でしたが、パドルサーフィンに参加したのは、夫、息子、娘の3人でした。その間、祖父母と私はツアー参加者専用のパラソルの下で座りながら見ることができました。
パドルサーフィンでは、子供たちは2・3回、夫は5・6回落ちていましたが、かなり足の筋肉を使いとても疲れた様子で帰ってきました・・・
見ているときは「やりたい!!」と張り切っていましたが、やはり見るのとやるのとでは違うようです。

Even though it was our family's first time, we were kindly taught. My wife, who usually doesn't exercise, still had a good experience. It's something you can't easily experience in Japan, so I recommend it.
家族初めてでも親切に教えてもらえました。普段運動をしない妻でもなんとか良い体験になりました。日本だとなかなか体験できませんのでお勧めです。
Thank you very much for the five-star review! When you return to Waikiki, please consider using our services again! We also have paddleboards ready right in front of the ocean, so I think it will be convenient for rentals. We offer rentals in front of the Royal Hawaiian Hotel or on either side of the Sheraton Waikiki Hotel (Diamond Head Beach, Gray's Beach), so feel free to stop by! Mahalo Nui Loa!
5つ星の口コミ、誠にありがとうございました! ワイキキに戻られた際はまた弊社のサービスをご利用ください! パドルボードも海目の前に用意しておりますので、レンタルにも便利だと思います。ロイヤルハワイアンホテル前、あるいはシェラトンワイキキホテル両脇(ダイアモンドヘッドビーチ、グレーズビーチ)にて貸出しておりますのでご気軽にお越しください! マハロヌイロア!
