Oahu
I participated with my 8-year-old son, and he said it was the most fun among all the activities we did. We enjoyed it more than we expected. Thank you very much.
8才の息子と一緒に参加しましたが、
いろんなアクティビティをした中で一番楽しかったと言って喜んでいました。想像以上に楽しめました。ありがとうございました。
I experienced it for the first time. It was really high!! Looking down, the sea was far away and the boat looked tiny, and I was genuinely scared thinking the rope might snap and I would fall... My son, who was with me, seemed to be having a great time, but I was too scared to enjoy it at all. I ended up chanting a prayer. The time felt incredibly long. However, towards the end, when we splashed into the water, it was fun. Everyone was getting splashed, and we all laughed together.
The boat staff were friendly and engaging, even with Japanese guests. I definitely recommend experiencing this. It will become a lifelong memory.
As for the meeting point, it took about 20 minutes to walk leisurely from the center of Waikiki while checking Google Maps. You don't need to take the trolley.
初めて体験しました。いやもう高い!!足元を見ると海面も遠くボートもちっちゃく、ロープが切れて落ちるんじゃないかと思うと本当に怖かった、、、。一緒に乗った息子はとても楽しそうでしたが、私は怖すぎて無でした。念仏唱えました。時間もえらく長く感じました。しかし最後の方で水面にぼちゃん!は楽しかった。どの組もぼちゃんやられててみんなで笑いました。
ボートのスタッフは日本人にも気さくにどんどん絡んでくるフレンドリーな方でした。
ぜひ体験することをおすすめします。
一生の思い出になりますよ。
待ち合わせ場所ですが、ワイキキの中心からグーグルマップみながらのんびり歩いてたしか20分くらいでした。トロリー乗らなくても大丈夫ですよ。
I was moved by the deep blue of the sea seen from above. The rich, deep blue ocean is something you rarely encounter elsewhere. I was able to experience a precious moment.
上空から見た海の青さに感動しました。濃い深みのある青い海は他ではなかなか見られません。貴重なひと時を体験することが出来ました。
Beautiful views of the crystal clear Waikiki waters!
The meeting was at 4 PM, and the start was pushed back to 5 PM instead of the planned 4:30 PM. We had kept our schedule flexible, which was good, but I felt it would be better to allow more time in the schedule.
Since several groups board the boat at the same time to head out to sea, the boat repeatedly stops and goes while waiting. Depending on the day, the waves can be high, so some people might experience significant seasickness. I recommend that those who are prone to it take motion sickness medication beforehand.
It was my first time parasailing, and at first, the thrill was incredible, but once I got used to the height, it was amazing. From 150 meters up, you can see Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head all at once. My family was thrilled and said it became a wonderful memory. My son, who is 8 years old, was scared at first but started shouting that it was the best part halfway through.
I highly recommend it!
集合が16時集合、16時半スタートが17時スタートと30分押してスタート。私たちはその後、予定をアバウトにしていたので良かったですが、時間は余裕を持ってスケジュールした方が良いなと感じました。
ボートで沖合まで出るのと数組同時に乗り込むので、船で待機している間は縦横無尽にボートはストップ&ゴーを繰り返します。また日によっては波が高いので、かなり船酔いされる方もいるかもしれません。弱い方は酔い止めなど飲まれていくことをオススメします。
パラセーリング初めてでしたが、初めはスリル感がハンパじゃないですが、高さに慣れてくれば最高でした。
150mからワイキキビーチ〜ダイヤモンドヘッドを一望出来ます。家族も最高の想い出になったと喜んでいました。息子も8歳で初めは怖がってはいましたが、途中から最高と叫んでいました。
是非オススメです。
I had a wonderful time. The staff were also very kind. The breathtaking views made the flying time feel like it passed in an instant.
・とてもすてきな時間をすごすことができました。スタッフの方々も親切です。飛んでいる時間があっという間に感じるほどの絶景でした。
Super fun! My daughter and her bestie had a great time. Crew were kind and fun! You should really do the 1000 feet!!
Even at an early hour, there were few other boats, and both the check-in and departure were smooth, making the experience feel a bit longer. If you time it right, you can enjoy a sense of rendezvous with the jet.
早い時間でも、他の船も少なく、受付も出航もスムーズで、少し時間も長く体験できたように感じました。
時間帯を合わせたら、ジェット機とのランデブー感覚が味わえます。
I participated with my daughter (150m).
Due to weight restrictions, two participants are required (it seems that if you're over 80kg, you can participate alone), so we joined as a family of two. The meeting point was at the boat harbor, just a few minutes' walk from the Hilton Lagoon, which made it convenient without any hassle or loss of time, allowing us to fill our free time easily.
We were worried about dropping our phones, so we participated with a waterproof camera attached to a strap, but there were others in a different group who were taking selfies with a selfie stick (of course, at their own risk...).
The 150m height is truly impressive, with all the buildings visible below and a fantastic view of the surroundings. Also, if you wish (?), it seems they can provide some bouncing near the water's surface.
Although not much Japanese is spoken, I think you can manage since there are other groups around.
母娘で参加しました(150m)
体重の関係で2名の参加が必須(80kg以上なら単独も可能みたいですが)という事で家族2名で参加しました。待ち合わせ場所はヒルトンのラグーンから徒歩数分のボートハーバーで移動の負担やロスがない点がよく、空き時間を埋めやすかったです。
自分たちは携帯は落下させそうで怖かったので防水カメラにストラップ付けて参加しましたが、別の組では自撮り棒で頑張って撮影されてる方もいました(もちろん自己責任…)
150mというのは本当に高く建物は全て眼下に見え、周囲が一望できる点が素晴らしいです。また希望すれば(?)、水面付近での乱高下などもして貰えるようです。
あまり日本語は通じませんが別の組も居るので勝手は分かるかと思います。
I participated with my daughter. Everything was in English except for the reception. On the boat, they seemed to think we didn't understand English, so we were a bit neglected, which was a little disappointing. The explanations were somewhat lacking, but we could understand by watching others, so I wasn't too worried. The parasailing was fun with great views. Since we go out to sea on the boat for parasailing, I recommend taking medication if you are prone to motion sickness.
娘と2人で参加しました。
受付以外は全て英語でした。
ボートでは私たちが英語が分からないと思い、ぽぽ放ったらかし状態だったため、少し残念でした。
説明なども雑でしたが、他の方のを見ていて分かりますので、心配はありませんでした。
パラセーリングは、景色も良く、楽しかったです。
パラセーリングへは、ボートで沖の方まで行くので、酔いやすい方は薬を飲むことをオススメします。
It was just amazing.
The weather wasn't great, but I still had fun.
When we took off, it felt exhilarating, and as we gained altitude, I could see the ocean, Diamond Head, the beach, and the hotels, which was really nice.
I took the bus round trip from Sheraton Waikiki, so I told the captain that there was no need for a Japan trip.
I have over 100 photos and received them as data.
もう、最高でした。
天気がイマイチでしたが楽しめました。
飛び立つ時がウォーという感じでしたが、どんどん高度が上がると海、ダイヤモンドヘッド、ビーチ、ホテルと見えて気持ちよかった。
シュラトンワイキキからバスで往復したので、海へのジャポンはキャプテンになしと伝えました。
写真は100枚以上ありデータでもらいました。
I arrived at the meeting point at 10:15 for my 10:30 reservation. However, I was told the start time was 10:45, so I bought a hot dog and a pineapple smoothie from a nearby stall for breakfast!
Unfortunately, we were the only Japanese people there (there was one group before us). There were 12 of us who boarded the boat and headed out to sea. There is a place to store your belongings at the feet of the boat! With 12 people, a sense of teamwork naturally develops, so I thought theft was unlikely. If there had been other Japanese people, we could have taken pictures together... what a shame! Just before jumping, the crew asks if you want to take a picture. You can view the photos (about 130) later at the reception, and if you like any, they can be transferred to an SD card or your phone for $40. You also have the option not to buy them.
Anyway, since we had to wait for the other groups to jump, anyone prone to seasickness definitely needs to take motion sickness medication. Two people from our team ended up vomiting.
10時30分予約で、15分に集合場所に行きました。
ですが、開始は45分と言われたので、近くの出店でホットドックとパイナップルスムージーを買って朝食!
日本人は残念ながら私たちだけでした。(前の組は1組いました。)
12人でそこから船に乗り、海へ。
持ち物は、船の足元に入れるところがあります!
12人はなんとなくチームワークみたいなのが芽生えるので、そこで盗難はあまり考えられないなぁと思いました。
同じ日本人がいたら、写真の撮りあいが出来たと思います。。残念!
ただ、飛ぶ直前にカメラ撮る?とクルーに聞かれます。
撮ったやつ(130枚くらい)をあとで受付のところで見て、気に入ったらSDカードと携帯にそこで入れてもらえます。これが40ドル。そこで買わない選択肢も出来ました。
とにかく他の組が飛ぶのを待つので、船酔いする人は絶対に酔い止めがいります。
私たちのチームでも2人が吐いてました。
I've been to Hawaii several times, but this was my first time parasailing. The meeting place was easy to find, and the staff at the reception were friendly. Along with the captain and crew, we set off with other foreign tourists. We were the first ones to go parasailing among the passengers. Not knowing what to expect, we quickly ascended into the sky! Despite being a bit scared, I was captivated by the beautiful scenery. It felt like we were taking a stroll in the air over Hawaii, even feeling a little bit of turbulence along the way. Although it lasted only about 10 minutes, I was satisfied with the thrill and breathtaking views that you can't experience in everyday life. At first, I was too nervous, so I would love to go again with a calmer mindset. I wonder when my next trip to Hawaii will be...
ハワイは何度か行っていますが、今回初パラセイリングでした。
集合場所はわかりやすく、受付の方も親切でした。
キャプテンとクルーに加えて私たちと外国人の観光客の方たちで出発。
乗客に中で、私たちが一番最初にパラセイリング。
勝手がわからずドンドンと上空へ!ビビりながらも景色の良さに惚れ惚れしました。途中ちょっとの揺れなども感じながらハワイの空中を散歩している感じです。
正味10分程度なのですが、日常では味わえないスリルと感動の景色に満足しました。最初の頃はビビりすぎていたので、心にゆとりを持ってもう一回行きたいですね。次回のハワイはいつになることか…
Parasailing itself was very enjoyable! The view of Hawaii from 150 meters was amazing! However, since there were about 12 people on the shared boat and 6 groups took turns flying, we had to wait on a rather rocky boat due to the strong winds that day. As a result, there were some people who got seasick during the wait. So, motion sickness medication is a must!
パラセーリング自体はとても楽しかったです!
150mから見るハワイの景色は素晴らしかったです!
ただ、12人程度の乗合船で6組が順番に飛ぶため、風が強い日だったこともあり結構揺れる船で待機することになります。 なので途中で船酔いしてしまっていた方がいました。なので酔い止めは必須です!
I went parasailing for the first time.
The view of Hawaii was absolutely amazing!!
If you are prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is a must!
初めてパラセーリングをしました。
ハワイの景色を一望できてとても最高でした!!
乗り物酔いするかたは酔い止め薬必須です!
My first parasailing experience. I was nervous, but once I was up, the view was breathtaking. It was over in no time. If you get seasick, you should be careful.
初めてのパラセイリング。ドキドキだったけど、上がってしまえばもう絶景。あっという間でした。船酔いする人は気をつけた方がいいです。
The captain and crew were great and had a good vibe! The foreign passengers I sailed with were also fun, making it a very enjoyable experience! The view from above, looking at Waikiki, was absolutely amazing!
キャプテン、クルーの方、ノリが良くて良かった!
また一緒に乗船した外国人の方もノリが良くて非常に楽しかった!
景色も上空からワイキキを眺められて最高に気持ちよかった!
Loved the view from above! Gorgeous day on the water
Reading the reviews, it was definitely the right choice to take motion sickness medication. The boat rocked more than I expected and it was a bit scary, but I didn't get seasick.
Even for someone like me who isn't good with thrill rides, I was able to enjoy parasailing!
Also, I thought I would get wet, so I only brought the bare minimum (smartphone, tip, hotel key card, towel), but I wish I had brought my credit card to pay for the optional photo shoot.
口コミを読んで、酔い止めを飲んで行って正解でした。船は思ったより揺れて怖かったですが、酔うことはありませんでした。
絶叫系が苦手な私でも、パラセイリングを楽しむことができました!
また、濡れると思い最低限の荷物(スマホ、チップ、ホテルのカードキー、タオル)しか持っていきませんでしたが、オプションの写真撮影代を支払うためにクレカを持っていけばよかったと思いました。
It started 30 minutes late due to the rain. But before we knew it, the boat arrived, and we quickly set off into the open sea! For those who get seasick, it's advisable to take some medication because the ride had a lot of floating sensations, haha.
About five groups boarded, and one by one, we were connected for parasailing and soared into the sky. Each group enjoyed about five minutes before being dropped into the sea and collected back onto the boat, haha. Both the time on the boat and during parasailing were so much fun, and it was an amazing experience!
雨が降ってて予定より30分遅れで始まりました。でもあっとゆうまに船の迎えが来てあっとゆうまに沖の方まで出発!
船酔いする人は薬飲んどいたほうがいいくらい浮遊感たっぷりの乗り心地でした笑笑
それから5組くらい乗り込み順番にパラセーリングに繋がれて空へと舞い上がっていき1組5分くらい楽しんだら海へジャボーンと落とされて船へと回収されます笑
船に乗ってる時もパラセーリング中もどっちも楽しくて最高に良い思いです!
We were quite anxious because we couldn't speak any English, but it was a bit reassuring to see other Japanese people there.
There were a total of five groups boarding, and even though we couldn't communicate well, the crew's vibe made it enjoyable for everyone. We took motion sickness medication, but it was quite bumpy, so if you're sensitive, please make sure you're in good condition!
The view from 150 meters was truly spectacular! The landing when coming down was also fun! I want to go again!
私たちはまったく英語ができないので不安でしたが、他にも日本人がいてちょっと安心
計5組で乗り込み、言葉は通じないながらもクルーのノリもあり皆で楽しめました酔い止めを飲んでいきましたが、かなり揺れるので弱い方は万全の体調で望んでください!
150mからの眺めは本当に絶景です!降りるときの着水も楽しかった~!また行きたいです!
The captain has a charming personality, so even though we don't speak Japanese, we can manage through feelings! We exchanged videos with a Japanese person♪
日本語は通じませんが愛嬌があるキャプテンなのでフィーリングでなんとかなります!
日本人の方と動画を撮りあって交換しました♪
Wonderful, my family was very happy and excited, an unforgettable experience
○Positive Points
- The view was absolutely stunning! I often saw paragliders from the beach, and I thought the starting point was nearby, but it was actually further out than I expected. There were 5-6 groups on the same small boat, and it felt great to be out in the wind and waves!
- It was a windy day, so we started an hour later than our reservation. They checked if it was okay to leave late and confirmed that we didn't have a dinner reservation, which allowed for the time change!
- There are many points to note below, but it was so much fun! I felt like a bird and would love to go again, so if you're interested, definitely give it a try!
●Points to Note
- Everything is basically in English, so be prepared for that... (For those taking photos, there were some people who spoke simple Japanese on the boat.)
- I experienced more seasickness than I expected, and the wind during paragliding can make it worse, so if you're prone to motion sickness, it's best to take medication just in case. I felt a bit nauseous while paragliding...
- Be careful about the meeting place! There's a large parking lot between the sea and the pool next to the hotel. The reception is in a small hut along the seaside within that parking lot, but it was hard to find... (I'll upload a photo of the reception hut, so please take a look.)
- If you have a GoPro or something similar, it might be good to bring it. Taking photos with a smartphone can be risky if you drop it, and it’s hard to take it out of your pocket to shoot without feeling nervous.
○良かった点
・とにかく絶景!ビーチからよくパラセイリングをしているのを見えていたので、近場かと思ったら、思ったより沖でのスタート。同じ船に5〜6組乗っていて、小型船ですので、風や波を受けとても気持ち良かったです!
・風の強い日で、予約より1時間遅い時間でのスタートとなりました。その中で遅れて出発でもOKか、ディナーの予約はしてないか確認してくれての時間変更になりました!
・下記注意点たくさんありますが、、とっても楽しかったです!鳥になったようなまた行きたいので、興味ある方はぜひ!
●注意点
・基本全て英語なのでちょっと覚悟が必要・・・(写真撮影の方、船の中でのコミュニケーションは簡単な日本語を話してくださる方がいらっしゃいました)
・思った以上に船酔い、パラセーリングでも風で煽られるので、酔い止めが気になる方は迷ったら飲んだ方が正解です。ちょっとパラセイリングの上空で気持ち悪くなりました・・・
・集合場所は要注意!海とホテル横のプールと挟まれたところに大きな駐車場があります。その駐車場の中、海沿いの小さな小屋が受付ですが、全く分からず・・・(受付の小屋は写真アップしておきますので、ご覧ください。)
・Go Proとかあれば持っていくと良いかもしれません。スマホ撮影は落としたら・・・とか勇気がないとポケットから出して撮影は考えずらいです。。
The view while ascending was very beautiful.
During the descent, the wind blew strongly, causing a loss of balance and I fell into the sea.
I was wearing a life jacket, so I didn't drown.
I think the probability of falling is low, but I believe it's wise to be cautious on windy days or when there is a significant weight difference between two people.
上がっている時の景色はとても綺麗でした。
降下している最中に、風が強く吹いてバランスが取れなくなり海に落下しました。
ライフジャケットを着ていたので溺れませんでした。
落ちる確率は低いと思いますが、風が強い日や、2人の体重差がある場合などは気をつけた方が良いと思いました。
Parasailing itself was very enjoyable! However, since there were about 10 people on the shared boat and we took turns flying in groups of 2 to 3, you have to wait on a rather rocky boat while others are parasailing. I got quite seasick, so motion sickness medication is a must.
パラセーリング自体はとても楽しかったです!
ただ、10人程度の乗合船で、2〜3人ずつ順番に飛ぶため、他の人のパラセーリング中は結構揺れる船で待機することになります。
かなり船酔いするので、酔い止めは必須です
The weather was great, with a blue sea and blue sky, and I had so much fun! I felt like a bird. I flew high, but I wasn't scared at all. The boat ride felt like a roller coaster and was a bit scary. If you're not good with that, it's better to sit at the front. The meeting point is hard to find, so it's best to arrive early.
天気がよく青い海に青い空ですごく楽しかったです!鳥になった気分でした。
高く飛ぶけど全く怖くなかったです。
ボートでの移動がジェットコースターみたいで怖かったです。苦手な方は前に乗る方がいいです。
集合場所が分かりにくいので、早めに行く方がいいです。
1. The meeting place is a small building, so it can be easy to miss, but it's located right in the parking lot!
2. The reception staff, drivers, and photographers are all locals, but everything worked out fine! The atmosphere is very homey, so you can enjoy it in a relaxed way!
3. Even if you arrive on time, you will have to wait about 30 to 40 minutes because the departure won't happen without the parasailing board.
4. If you have a GoPro, the local drivers are quite enthusiastic and you might end up being dunked into the water while floating in the air, so it's best to check if it's waterproof. Also, you can get photos taken for $40, but if you have a GoPro, you probably won't need it!
It might be better to avoid taking selfies with your phone on a selfie stick, as there's a chance your phone could fall. It gets quite bumpy.
5. While waiting for your turn for parasailing or after finishing, the driving can be quite wild, so be careful of seasickness.
As a reference, I saw some people giving tips of $5 or $10 to the drivers, but only about 2 out of 10 people did so.
参加する方は、
1、集合場所が小さい建物なので見逃しやすいですが、駐車場の中にぽつんとあります!
2、受付の人、運転手、カメラマン全て現地の人ですがどうにかなりました!雰囲気はアットホームなので、ノリで楽しめます!
3、集合時間に間に合っても、パラセーリングするためのボードがないと出発しないので、集合時間から30〜40分待たされます。
4、GoProお持ちの方は、向こうの運転手のサービス精神で空に浮いている状態から水の中に突っ込まれると思うので、防水確認した方がいいです。また40ドルで写真撮ってもらえますが、GoProある方は、いらないと思います!
携帯を自撮り棒で撮るのは、携帯落ちる可能性があるので控えた方がいいかもしれません。
結構振り回されます。
5、パラセーリングの順番待ってる時・また終えて待っている時、めちゃくちゃ運転がワイルドなので船酔いに気をつけてください。
参考までにチップは、運転手に5ドルか10ドル渡してる方いましたが、10人中2人ぐらい渡してました。
At first, I was scared, but seeing Waikiki from the ocean, I was moved by the vast sea. The view was amazing. The staff were also very friendly and approachable, which I appreciated.
最初は怖かったですが、海から見るワイキキ、広大な海に感動しました。最高の眺めでした。
スタッフの方もとても気さくに接して頂き、ありがたかったです。
I experienced parasailing for the first time. It was only a few minutes in the air, but I had a wonderful aerial adventure. We boarded a motorboat with several groups and took turns flying in the sky. The motorboat swayed quite a bit, so I think those who are prone to motion sickness should be cautious.
初めてパラセイリングを経験しました。
空中ではほんの数分でしょうか。とても素晴らしい空中遊泳の旅を経験いたしました。
何組かのグループでモーターボートに乗船して、順番に空を飛びます。
モーターボートはかなり揺れるので、船酔いをする方は要注意だと思います。
