All Reviews for Parasailing Tours

I participated at a height of 150m, but I felt that there wasn't much difference above a certain height. However, if you go too low, the time spent in the air becomes shorter, so I recommend a medium height.

In the air, I experienced a mix of fear and excitement, which made for a very good experience.

Regarding the boat ride, the speed and handling were so intense that I felt like I might be thrown into the sea if I wasn't holding on tight, which was another attraction in itself.

You can have photos taken, but they cost $30, so I didn't purchase any. I thought it would have been nice if they offered them for free. (Since there were four of us, we took turns taking pictures with an iPhone.)

高さ150mで参加しましたが、一定の高さ以上は変わらないという印象です。ただしあまり低いと空中での時間が短くなるので、中くらいをお勧めします。
空中では恐怖と感動とが入り混じって、とても良い経験をさせていただきました。

なおボートでの移動に際して、捕まっていないと海に投げ出されそうなほど、激しいスピード、ハンドルワークがまた一つのアトラクションでした。

写真は撮っていただけるのですが、30＄とのことで購入しませんでした。サービスしてくれてもいいのになあと思いました。（家族４人だったので交代にてiphoneで撮影）

Great experience - staff were very friendly - Super fun

Parasailing ★★★★☆
Transportation ★★☆☆☆
Photography (30$) ★★★☆☆

This time, I experienced 120 meters! Parasailing was a lot of fun. Surprisingly, it was quiet, and I was able to enjoy beautiful views from high up. It was a great experience. I wish I could have flown a bit longer. I think the flight time was about 10 minutes. It felt like the flight time was a little short compared to the overall duration, so I gave it four stars. There were four groups of participants, and we took turns flying. While others were flying, we waited on the boat, so I felt it might get boring if you fly first and have to wait until everyone is done. We were the third group.

The transportation arrived 30 minutes late. It was good that the staff at our hotel confirmed it over the phone, but I was anxious. The driver said "busy busy," but I think the delay was due to having one boat and one shuttle van rotating four groups every hour.

I requested photography. After getting off the boat, I received an SD card for 30$. It contained 90 images. They took pictures of us taking off, returning to the boat, the scenery from the boat, and some two-shots on the boat. Since they were taken in burst mode, most of the photos are quite similar. So, while there are 90 images, I don't think it feels that much of a bargain. However, the boat does sway quite a bit, so while it's not impossible, it's difficult to take pictures with your own phone or camera. If you want to keep photos of your parasailing experience, I recommend requesting it. Before taking off, they ask, "Photo thirty dollars." I think it's better to say "YES PLEASE" here. They hardly took photos of those who didn't intend to buy. After getting off the boat, they let you check the contents of the SD card through the camera. I think you can decide whether to buy or not at that time.

パラセイリング★★★★☆
送迎★★☆☆☆
写真撮影（30$）★★★☆☆

今回は120メートルを体験しました！パラセイリングはとても楽しかったです。意外にも静かで高いところから美しい景色を眺めることができました。良い経験が出来ました。もう少し長く飛んでいたかったです。滞空時間は10分程度だったと思います。全体の所要時間に対して滞空時間が少しだけ短いように感じたので、星は4つです。計4組の参加者がおり、順番に飛びます。他の方々が飛んでいる間はボートで待っているので、最初に飛んでしまうと全員が飛び終わるまで待つのが退屈になりそうと感じました。私たちは3番目でした。

送迎が定時より30分遅れて到着しました。滞在ホテルのスタッフに電話で確認を取ってもらえたので良かったのですが、不安でした。「busy busy」とドライバーは言っていましたが、1隻のボートと1台の送迎車で4組を1時間毎に繰り回しているために遅れが生じているのだと思います。

写真撮影をお願いしました。ボートを降りてから30$でSDカードを受け取ります。90枚画像が入っていました。飛び立つところやボートに戻ってくるところ、ボートからの風景、ボートでのツーショットなどの写真を取っていただきました。連写で撮影しているので、同じような写真がほとんどです。ですので、90枚もありますが、そこまでお得感があるというわけではないと思います。しかし、ボートの上はかなり揺れますので、自分の携帯やカメラで撮影するのは不可能ではありませんが難しいです。もし、パラセイリングの写真を残したいのならばお願いするべきでしょう。飛び立つ前に「シャシン サンジュウドル」と聞かれます。ここで「YES PLEASE」と言う方が良いと思います。買う意思がない方の写真はほとんど撮っていませんでした。ボートを降りてSDカードの中身をカメラ越しに確認させてくれます。買うか買わないかはその時でも決められると思います。

About the shuttle service: It was not the flashy van mentioned on the voucher, but rather a blue van with no markings. The driver, who only spoke English, was asking people who seemed to be tour participants, "Parasailing?" so I think it wouldn't be a problem even if you don't understand the language.

Despite being 56, my mother, who has loved thrill rides since she was young, and I, who get cold sweats even when the airplane shakes, decided to take on the challenge. It was my first time parasailing, but the handsome staff provided instructions in Japanese, English, and Chinese, making everything very easy to understand.

The first group was an American couple, and as the boat sped up, we were all nervous on the boat, but the couple up in the air was extremely excited. When it was our turn in the second group, the moment we sat at the back of the boat and waited was the scariest part, but once we were up in the air, there was no shaking or ups and downs; we were simply moved by the beautiful blue sky of Hawaii and the sparkling ocean spread out below us.

When we descended, it was not a rapid drop but a slow one, gently splashing into the sea and then coming back up, and finally, we were softly lowered down.

It became the best memory of Hawaii!

シャトルサービスについて：バウチャーに書いてある派手なバンではなく、青色の何の表記も無いバンでした。英語しかしゃべらない運転手さんがツアー参加者っぽい人たちに「パラセイリング？」と声掛けてたので、たとえ言葉が分からなくても問題ないと思います。
56にも関わらず若いときから絶叫系大好きな母と、飛行機が気流で揺れても冷や汗搔く私のコンビで挑戦しました。人生初のパラセイリングだったが、スタッフのイケメンが日本語英語中国語で指示出していたので、説明がすごく分かりやすかったです。
1組目はアメリカ人のカップルで、実際ボートがスピード出して飛ばしていくにつれて、ボートにいた私たちがどきどきハラハラしてましたが、上に上がったカップルは大興奮してました。2組目で順番が回ってきて、船尾に座って待ってた瞬間が怖さマックスでしたが、実際上がっていくと、揺れも無く、上下の起伏もなく、ただひたすらハワイの青空と一面に広がる海の輝きに感動されました。
降りていくときも急降下ではなく、ゆっくりで、海にポチャンしてまた上がって、最後にやさしく降ろしてくれました。
ハワイ最高の思い出になりました！

I have a fear of heights and I'm not good with roller coasters, but after reading some experiences, I thought it might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so I decided to challenge myself and go for the 150m jump.

There were three groups participating, including my husband and me, a French couple, and a newlywed Japanese couple. We arrived five minutes early, and while I was looking around, a plump gentleman was already waiting. When they called my name, we boarded the bus.

We then met up with the other two couples and arrived at a place with many boats. After receiving our tickets, we quickly boarded a boat, and in about five minutes, we reached the jumping spot. I took some stomach medicine just in case, but the sea was so beautiful that I didn't feel any seasickness at all.

As others have mentioned, there was no explanation for us (maybe it was in English), and just as we were fitted with the equipment, the Japanese couple jumped first. During that time, lively reggae music was playing loudly, creating a fun atmosphere.

Then it was our turn! We ascended slowly, so there was no fear at all—just excitement! However, after a few minutes at the highest point, both my husband and I felt a bit weak in the knees. But looking around, the view was so beautiful that the feeling of pleasure outweighed any fear.

After about seven minutes of flying, we had our traditional splash into the sea, and we went in up to our chests, which was a lot of fun. The staff who weren't operating the boat took pictures with my husband's phone, and we were very satisfied! There were even some videos included, which was a nice surprise (laughs).

At the end, they asked for tips, and while I didn't see how much the other couples gave, I thought around 10% would be appropriate, so I gave $20. On the way back on the bus, since we were the last ones, I handed $5 to the gentleman, and he happily said, "Thank you, brothers!" which made me feel good.

If possible, I wish the driver and the boat staff could speak Japanese, so I deducted one star, but I would definitely like to use this service again when I go to Hawaii. Thank you very much!

高所恐怖症＆ジェットコースターが大の苦手な私でしたが体験談を読んで、一生に一度かもしれないと思い150mに挑戦しました。
私達夫婦以外にフランス人カップルと日本人の新婚さん夫婦の３組で参加でした。
5分前には着いたのですが、ふくよか体型のおじ様が既に待っていてキョロキョロしていたら名前を呼ばれバスに乗り込みました。
そのまま2組とも合流し、船が沢山ある場所につきチケットを貰ったらすぐに船に乗り込み、5分くらいで飛ぶ場所に、、
酔い止めがなく一応胃薬はのんだんですが
船酔いなんて全然しないほど、海が綺麗でした。
皆様が書いてあるように私達には説明がなく(もしかしたら英語で言ってたのかも)器具を装着されたと思ったら最初は日本人夫婦が飛び、その間は
軽快なレゲエ調の音楽を爆音で流してくれてノリノリに♪
次に私達の番でした！
ゆっくり上がってくので恐怖は全然なく
わー*\(^o^)/*っていう感情のみでしたが、さすがに一番高い所で何分かかいると私も旦那もちょっと足がすくみましたが周りをみるととても綺麗で下さえみなければ気持ちよさが勝ちます。
7分くらいの空の散歩のあとは恒例の海ポチャをしてくれて胸のしたくらいまでは入りましたが楽しかったです。
写真は船を動かしてないスタッフの方が旦那の携帯で撮ってくれて大満足です！！
たまに動画も入ってて驚きです(笑)
そして最後にチップくださーい！
って言われたので他の夫婦はどれくらい渡したかみてませんが大体10%くらいかな？
って思って20ドル渡しました。
帰りのバスのときは私達が最後だったので5ドルおじ様に渡したら
サンキューブラザーズ！！
と言って喜んでくれたのでよかったです。
できれば運転手さんも船のスタッフも日本語が話さればということで☆一つ減らしましたがまた、ハワイに行く際は利用したいです。
ありがとうございました！！

The bus pickup was over 10 minutes late, which made me worried, but we arrived safely and were able to board the boat. I was really concerned about seasickness, but there were only three groups, and they organized everything quickly, so it was totally fine. My son was scared until the last minute because he has a fear of heights, but they securely fitted him with the gear, and it seems he was able to enjoy himself without worry. It was a bit disappointing that the sky was cloudy, but we enjoyed the views of Hawaii from above. The flight time was longer than I expected, which was satisfying. I asked to take photos with my phone, and they captured everything well from the moment we took off, even filming a video. I later discovered some really funny photos with American jokes, like cutting the rope with a knife, when we got back to the hotel. We made great memories together. I go to Hawaii every year for the Honolulu Marathon and always book some kind of activity through VELTRA. I also request Wolfgang Puck every year. Thank you again this year. If I had one hope, it would be to have the ability to communicate via email using a smartphone email address.

バスのお迎えは10分以上遅れて心配になりましたが、無事現地に着いてボートに乗れました。船酔いがすごく心配でしたが3組しかいなくて段取りも素早くしてもらったので全然大丈夫でした。息子が高所恐怖症なので直前まで怖がってましたがしっかりと器具を装着してもらって安心して楽しめたようです。曇り空だったので少し残念でしたが空からのハワイの景色を楽しめました。飛行時間も思ったより長く満足しました。携帯で写真撮影をお願いしたのですが上空に飛び立つ時からしっかり撮ってもらってて動画まで撮影してくれててナイフでロープを切るアメリカンジョーク満載の写真もホテル帰ってから改めて発見してすごく面白かったです。息子と2人のいい思い出が出来ました。毎年ホノルルマラソンでハワイに行きますが毎年VELTRAで何かしらのアクティビティを申し込んでます。あとウルフギャングも毎年お願いしてます。今年もありがとうございました。一つ希望があるとしたらスマートフォンでのメールアドレスでメールのやり取りが出来るようになると助かります。

The staff, including the drivers, were all very nice people. There were about five groups, and each session lasted around 3 to 4 minutes. If you feel scared, you can gesture, and they will let you off early. Additionally, if you wish, you can be lightly submerged in water while remaining on board. While waiting for the other four groups, the boat swayed quite a bit, so I think it's a good idea for those who are prone to motion sickness to take some anti-nausea medication.

スタッフの人は運転手含め全て良い人達でした。
5組程いて１組3,4分程度で行われました、怖い場合はジェスチャーすると早めにおろしてくれます。また、希望に応じて乗ったままの状態で軽く水に浸からされます。
他の4組を待っている間は船の揺れが結構激しく、乗り物酔いをし易い人は酔い止めを飲んでおくといいと思います。

The view from 150 meters was wonderful. It was quiet, a little scary, but the world of just the two of us, with no one else around, left a lasting memory. Thank you very much.

150メートルから見る景色は素晴らしかったです。静かで、少しこわくて、でも誰もいない二人の世界は思い出に残りました。ありがとうございました。

Everyone was so friendly and great experience. Very fun activity

Before doing it, I was scared because I have a fear of heights, but... as I slowly went up, I was moved by the amazing view! I want to try the 150m with a longer airtime!

やる前は高所恐怖症ということもあり、怖かったのですが…ゆっくりとあがり、とっても良い景色に思わず感動！時間は滞空時間の長い150mやりたいです！

I participated in the 150M, and it was incredibly fun! The staff were very friendly, which was great. I definitely want to participate again.

１５０Mに参加しましたが、とにかく最高に楽しかったです！
スタッフの方もとてもフレンドリーで良かったです。
是非また参加したいです。

For someone like me who isn't good with roller coasters, deciding to experience it was quite a challenge. Although I was nervous, the view as we rose from the boat into the sky was unforgettable (^O^). The weather was great, and the conditions were perfect.

The friendly attitude of the cruiser driver helped ease my tension, making it the best experience!

ジェットコースターがダメな私にとっては体験することが大変な決断でした。緊張はしたものの、船から空へ上がるときの景色の広がり方は一生モノです(^O^)天気も良く抜群のコンディションでした。

クルーザーのドライバーさんの気さくなノリに緊張感も打ち解け、最高の体験になりました！

I participated at a height of 120m. There were also people at 150m, but 120m was more than enough for me. I felt a bit of fear before flying, but it was quite stable, and even for someone like me who isn't good with roller coasters, it was totally fine. You won't feel any floating sensation, so you can relax. The large rainbow parasol was very colorful and beautiful. However, I thought the photo fee (30 dollars) was quite high. They take a lot of pictures, but they also take photos with your own camera (phone), so I felt that was sufficient. There was a lady at the dock (Japanese) who said, "Most people buy them," but that's not necessarily true. If you don't want them, it's better to clearly say so. That lady was the only one who felt unpleasant, and since the parasailing itself was short and expensive, I didn't buy the photos.

高さ120mで参加しました。150mの方もいましたが、120mで十分でした。飛ぶまでは恐怖心がありましたが、結構安定感がありジェットコースターが苦手な私でも全然大丈夫でした。ふわっとする感じは全然ありませんので安心してください。大きなレインボーのパラソルがとてもカラフルできれいでした♫ただし、写真が有料（30ドル）なのは高いなーと思います。たくさん撮ってくれますが、自分のカメラ（携帯）でも撮ってくれるのでそれで十分かなと感じます。船着場にいたおばちゃん（日本人）が「大体の方は買いますよ」と言っていましたがそうでもないです。いらないならいらないとはっきり言った方が良いです。そのおばちゃんだけ感じ悪かったし、パラセイリング自体が短い割に高いので写真は買いませんでした。

My first time parasailing and it was so fun! The guys running the boat had great energy. We did the 800 ft for 8 min, the early bird special. Highly recommended!

I saw it on TV and decided to sign up because I wanted to try it. I was nervous until it started, but once I got up there, it was so much fun and went by in no time. I asked the instructor for photos, and for $30, they took about 80 pictures and gave them to me on a memory card at the end. Considering the cost of living in Hawaii, I thought it was a good value.

My husband ate too much for breakfast and started to feel sick halfway through, so be careful not to overeat. While we were up there, it started to rain, but it wasn't too bothersome, and we even saw a rainbow, so it was a lot of fun.

テレビで見て、してみたいと思って申し込みしました。
始まるまではドキドキしていましたが、上がってみると、楽しくてあっという間でした。インストラクターさんに写真をお願いしましたが、30ドルで80枚ほど撮って下さり、最後にメモリーカードで渡してくれました。ハワイの物価を考えるとお手頃で価値があったと思います。
旦那さんは朝ご飯を食べ過ぎて、途中で気持ち悪くなっていたので、食べ過ぎには注
意です。
上っているとき、途中で雨が降ってきまし
たが、そんなに気にならなく、虹も見れたので、とても楽しかったです。

There was no explanation in Japanese, only in English, but since all the participants were Japanese and the staff communicated in broken Japanese, I was able to participate with peace of mind. I was really anxious when I arrived 20 minutes late for the morning gathering, but other than that, there were no particular issues. It was my first time paragliding, and it felt really good! I was quite nervous, but the height was just right.

日本語の説明がなく、英語のみでしたが、参加者全員が日本人であること、スタッフの方々もカタコトではありますが日本語で対応してくれたため安心して参加することが出来ました。
朝の集合の際、２０分も遅れてきたことがすごく焦りましたけど、それ以外は特に問題はありません。
パラセイリング始めてでしたが、とても気持ちよく出来ました♫
僕はかなりビビってましたがいい高さでしたよ

I chose 120m, and it was the right choice. I would like to try it again if I have the chance. I would also recommend it to everyone.

120mを選びましたが、正解でした。
また機会があったらやってみたいと思います。
皆さんにもおすすめしたいです。

I had experienced parasailing in the past, but this time, it was a lot of fun with beautiful views and thrills that exceeded my expectations. However, if you're worried about seasickness, please don't forget to take motion sickness medication.

昔、パラセイリングは経験したことがありましたが、今回久々に体験して想像以上に高く綺麗な景色とスリルで大変楽しかったです。
ただ、船酔いが心配な方は酔い止め飲むのは忘れずにしてくださいね。

Thanks to Hawaiian Parasail our entire family of four had a fantastic bonding experience on a breezy September Saturday afternoon. What a unique way to spend quality time together--up in the air overseeing the entire city of Honolulu while watching fish passing right under us in the crystal clear Hawaiian waters.

We had celebrated our younger son’s fifth birthday the weekend before, and taking him parasailing was definitely the best gift he received. In fact, he was waiting for this day since he was two! We moved to Hawaii almost three years ago, and ever since then, my little Daniel was dreaming of parasailing. Due to the age restrictions, however, we had to wait till he turned five. So, just a few days after his fifth birthday, this boy’s dream came true.

I would definitely recommend this experience to others. The captain and the crew were very professional and friendly. They took pictures of us that I will frame and put up on the wall in our living room. What unique shots!

We received detailed instructions on what to do, and by the way, for the Japanese travellers, there is a Japanese safety briefing in their own language. The feet dip is a must! The captain is very sensitive and if a guest asks not to be dipped, he will follow the instructions 100 percent. My boys were not scared of being dipped at all, and as soon as we came back to shore, both of them asked when we would be able to repeat the adventure! Thank you, Hawaiian Parasail for giving us these unforgettable memories.

I tried it for the first time and challenged myself at a height of 150 meters! The view was beautiful, and it was definitely the right choice to go for 150 meters! I definitely want to do it again! It was a very valuable experience!

初めてやりましたが、高さ150mにチャレンジしました！
景色も綺麗で、150mにして正解でした！
またぜひやりたいです！とても貴重な時間でした！

The driver came to pick me up at the nearest point to the hotel, and he was very kind. Even though I don't understand English, I was able to enjoy the activities without any problems!

ホテルの最寄のところまで迎えに来てくれて運転手の方も優しくて英語がわからない私でも問題なくアクティビティを楽しむことができました！

This was the only activity I experienced on my first trip to Hawaii! Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great, but I had a lot of fun and was very satisfied! I definitely want to do it again♪ Since this review was very helpful, I’d like to report my experience in detail!

【Height】It felt more like the duration of being airborne (and the distance from the boat) changed rather than the "altitude." I think it was about 45m? Those who mentioned 150m seemed to feel it wasn't much different from our height. By the way, I can't stand on the glass floor of Tokyo Tower, but I wasn't scared at all during parasailing, perhaps because I felt safe with the ocean below me! The part you sit on felt relatively sturdy; it swayed but also felt stable (^^)

【Seasickness】I read many reviews warning about seasickness, so I made sure to take motion sickness medication before going (laughs). I usually get motion sickness, but maybe because of the medication or my mental preparation, I didn't feel sick at all. The boat does sway quite a bit, but if you look straight ahead instead of to the side, it's relatively manageable.

【Time】We had a little over an hour with five groups. Since we were the first to fly, I thought we might be bored afterward, but surprisingly, the boat itself was quite fun as an activity☆ (On the way back, the captain tilted the boat for a fun ride, which was amusing!)

【Bad Weather】On the day we initially booked, it was canceled due to "bad weather from strong winds," and we were able to reschedule for the next day. The following day, it was lightly raining, but since the winds weren't strong, we were able to go parasailing safely♪ I was very surprised by how thorough the procedures for rescheduling due to cancellation were. Since the cancellation decision was made relatively close to the time (two hours before), they called both my registered mobile and hotel room, and I received a prompt and polite email afterward. The contact was from VELTRA, not the local company, so everything was in Japanese, which was very helpful, and they assisted with the reservation changes during the phone call.

【Language】As mentioned above, since I could rely on VELTRA for the procedures, it was all in Japanese, which was a relief. At the reception, there was a Japanese woman, so I didn't have any issues there. On the boat, there were only local staff, but they communicated the necessary information in Japanese, so there were no problems at all! However, it was a bit disappointing that I couldn't engage in more conversation with the lively staff. I regretted my English skills.

【Others】
- The basic idea was "splashing into the sea," and you could ask not to be splashed if you didn't want to.
- The photo service was $30 for cash and $35 for card payment. Even if you didn't request it, they took photos as a standard practice, and after returning, you could easily check the photos and purchase the ones you liked. I think it's worth buying the photos of yourself flying since they won't take those unless you ask♪
- I prepared tips separately to give at the end of the trip.
- I was impressed by the captain's control of the parachute (laughs).

初めてのハワイ旅行で唯一体験したアクティビティでした！あいにくの天気ではありましたが、とても楽しく満足できました！またぜひやってみたい♪こちらの口コミがとても参考になったので、詳しめに体験談をレポートしたいと思います！

【高さ】”高度”というより滞空時間（と船からの距離）が変わる印象です。おそらく45mかな？と思われる方々の回はちょっと時間的に物足りなさそうに感じました。また、150mとおっしゃっていた方たちの高さは、さほど自分たちと変わらないように感じました。
ちなみに、私は東京タワーのガラス床に立てないですが、パラセイリングは下が海という安心感（？）からか、全然恐くありませんでした！乗る部分も比較的しっかりしていて、揺れるけど安定感もあった気がします(^^)

【船酔い】口コミで散々船酔いに注意とあったので、酔い止めをしっかり飲んで臨みました（笑）私は乗り物酔いはよくする方ですが、薬のせいか事前の心の準備があったせいか、全然酔いませんでした。確かに船はだいぶ揺れます。が、横を見ずに進行方向を見るとかすると比較的大丈夫です。

【時間】私たちは5組で1時間強でした。1番最初に飛んだので、後の時間が暇かなぁと思ってましたが、意外と船自体がアクティビティ的で楽しめました☆（帰港の時は船長さんの遊び心で船体を傾けてのライドで面白かったです！）

【悪天候】私たちは、最初に予約した日は「強風による悪天候」でその日は全日不催行になり、次の日に再予約してもらいました。次の日は、小雨が降る中でしたが、風が強くなかったのでＯＫとのことで無事パラセイリングを実施することができました♪
この不催行による予約変更等の手続きが、非常に丁寧で驚きました。実施2時間前という比較的時間が迫っている中での不催行決定だったからか、登録していた携帯とホテルの部屋にも電話があり、その後すぐに丁寧なメールが来ました。現地の会社さんではなく、VELTRAさんからの連絡だったのですべて日本語対応でしたし、その電話のやりとりの中で予約変更の手続きもしていただいて、非常に助かりました。

【言語】上記の通り、手続き関係はVELTRAさんにお願いできたので全面日本語で助かりました。現地では、受付に日本人の女性の方がいたのでこちらも困ることはありませんでした。船上では現地スタッフの方たちだけでしたが、必要最低限のことは日本語でも伝えてくれるので全く問題ありませんでした！ただ、とても盛り上げてくださる方たちだったのに必要以上のお話しができなかったのは残念。自分の英語力を悔やみました。

【その他】
・「海にドボン」が基本で、入れてほしくない時にお願いする感じでした。
・写真のサービスは、現金だと30ドル・カード払いだと35ドルでした。頼んでいなくても基本は写真を撮ってくれていて、帰港後に簡単に写真をチェックして、気に入れば購入するという形でした。自分が飛んでる様子は頼まないと撮れないので、購入した方が記念になると思います♪
・チップは別途準備しました。帰港時に渡します。
・船長さんたちのパラシュートのコントロール力に感動しました（笑）

I experienced parasailing at 120 meters! It was incredibly fun, and the moment I was up in the air was the most enjoyable! I want to do it again! Next time, I think I'll go for 150 meters! (laughs) Thank you very much! (*ˆ ˆ*)/

パラセイリング120mを体験しました！
めちゃくちゃ楽しくて、上がってる瞬間が一番楽しかったです！また体験したいです！その時は150mにしようと思います！（笑）
ありがとうございました(*ˆ ˆ*)/

This was my second time parasailing. I had some excitement from my memories of the previous experience, but it exceeded my expectations! At first, I was a bit anxious because the tour details were all in English and I wondered if they would understand Japanese, but both staff members clearly loved Japan, which made the time on the boat enjoyable.

On the way to the parasailing spot, we enjoyed the view of the town (even though we were going really fast), chatting and taking photos, which was also a lot of fun! The staff were very lively, and they even took photos with us.

When we finally arrived and started!!! The height was incredible, scary but fun!!! Being in the air was both frightening and exhilarating!!! The staff had a playful spirit, and just when I thought it was about to end, they surprised us with one more fun experience!

As we were leaving, they kindly shared information about that day's events and the market for the next day. The staff were truly friendly and cheerful.

I would definitely like to request them again when I go parasailing in Hawaii!

Thank you very much.

私自身パラセーリングは2回目でした。

スタッフさん達でした。

またハワイでパラセーリングを
やるときには是非お願いしたいです^_^

ありがとうございました。

It was absolutely amazing!!! The locals were really good at getting everyone excited, and I was super pumped! The rocking of the boat was seriously intense, but I managed to get through it because it was so much fun! If it weren't for those two locals, I definitely would have been sick... They took a lot of photos and the videos turned out great... I want to go back to Hawaii (;_;)

もう最高！！！現地の人も盛り上げ上手で、むっちゃテンションあがった！船の揺れはまじでやばかったけど、楽しさでなんとか乗り切った！現地の人が、あの二人じゃなかったら確実にゲロゲーロしてたでしょう。。。写真もいっぱい撮ってくれてムービーもいい感じで、、ハワイに戻りたい(;_;)

Parasailing while looking at Waikiki Beach. It was 150 meters high, but it might have been better to go lower. The reason I felt it was too high was that I experienced a prolonged sensation of being like a kite rather than the feeling of being pulled and flying, which made me feel seasick. I've done it five times in places like Guam and Okinawa, but this was the first time I felt seasick.

ワイキキビーチ見ながらのパラセイリング。150ｍだったが、もっと低くてもよかったかも。高すぎたと感じたのは、引っ張られて飛ぶ感覚より、凧のような状態が長く続き船酔い状態になってしまったこと。グアム、沖縄など５回経験あるが、船酔い状態のなったのは初めて。

Three of us girls jumped 150 meters (^^)
We were quite nervous, but there was no fear, just pure amazement at the scenery (^^)
The staff and the drivers who provided transportation were kind and funny!
We even encountered dolphins during the boat ride!
I was so happy (^_^*)
I’m really glad I did it (^^)
I want to do it again when I go back (^_^*)

女子３人で150m飛びました(^^)
かなりドキドキしていましたが、怖さもなく、景色にただただ感動(^^)
スタッフさん達も送迎してくれるドライバーさんも優しくて面白かったです！
ボートの移動中にイルカにも遭遇できました！
嬉しかったー(^_^*)
ほんとにやってよかったですー(^^)
また行ったらしたいです(^_^*)

I had so much fun that 10 minutes was definitely not enough! It was also great that they provided transportation to the hotel. However, it would have been even better if there had been guidance on tipping. I wasn't sure if the amount to give was different from what you would give at a restaurant, so I ended up asking a Japanese person I happened to be with. (*_*)

10分じゃ全然足りないくらい楽しめました！！ホテルまで送迎してくれるのもとっても良かったです。ただチップの目安の案内等があればなお良かった。レストランとは渡す金額が違うものなのかがわからなくてたまたま一緒になった日本人の方に聞いてしまいました(*_*)

As a commemoration of our honeymoon, we participated in our first parasailing experience.

When we arrived at the meeting point for the afternoon tour, the trolley and the driver were already waiting for us. The driver spoke English and was very lively in conversation. The trolley was almost private, and with just six of us in the spacious interior, we were able to sit comfortably.

After arriving at the boat dock and waiting for about 20 minutes, we finally boarded the boat. Apart from us, all the other participants were foreigners. Once the boat set off, everyone got excited with a cheer. Although I couldn't understand most of the conversations, the atmosphere was very good, and just being there was enjoyable.

As we headed out to sea, the English explanations began, but we received a Japanese instruction manual, so we were able to understand everything properly.

Finally, we arrived at the spot for parasailing! We were the fourth group out of five, so we could calmly watch the procedures before our turn. The first couple was guided up in no time and quickly soared into the sky. As they took off, the other participants applauded, and the atmosphere on the boat was very lively.

While waiting, the boat rocked quite a bit, which was thrilling in itself. We never got bored. Both of us had taken motion sickness medication beforehand, but as time went on, I started to feel a bit uneasy in my stomach.

While the previous pair was flying, they helped us put on the harness and asked, "Are you going to splash into the sea?" Before the tour, we were hesitant, but seeing the other members happily splash into the water made us decide to go for it too.

We were guided to the edge of the boat, and before we knew it, we were lifted into the air, soaring high above. I had hoped to reach the maximum height of 150 meters, but it wasn't as scary as I expected, and it felt nice to sway gently in the wind. Above all, everyone on the boat was waving and cheering for us, which really boosted our spirits.

We were up there for about ten minutes. The weather was great, so we could see Waikiki and Diamond Head beautifully. While taking photos and chatting, the time passed quickly. For us, it was just the right amount of time—neither too short nor too long. We got to splash into the water twice, which was so much fun! We only got wet up to our chests, so we weren't cold after coming back on board.

When we returned to the boat, everyone cheered, "Yeah!" Until we reached the port, everyone was in high spirits, and the atmosphere on the boat was truly enjoyable.

Finally, we were asked if we wanted to purchase photos for $30, and we decided to buy them without hesitation. On the return boat ride, they cheered in English, "Let's give a round of applause for our guests from Japan!" and we never felt out of place. Everyone was kind and lively, and I truly felt glad to have participated.

ハネムーンの記念に初のパラセイリングに参加しました。
午後からのツアーで集合場所に行くと、既にトロリーと運転手さんが待っていました。運転手さんは英語ですがノリノリでお話してくれます。トロリーもほぼ貸切状態で、広い車内に６人だったのでのびのび座れました。
ボート乗り場に到着後、２０分程待っていよいよボートへ。
私たちの他は外国人の参加者ばかりでした。ボートが出発すると「フ~！」とみんな盛り上がっていきます。会話はほとんど分からないけど、雰囲気はとても良く、その場にいるだけでも楽しめました。
沖に向かいながら英語の説明が始まりますが、私たちは日本語の説明書をもらえたのできちんと理解できました。

沖へ着いていよいよパラセイリング！
私たちは５組中４番目だったので、飛ぶまでの手順を落ち着いて見てられました。
１番目だったカップルはあれよあれよという間に誘導され、あっという間に上空へ。飛び上がると他の参加者は拍手喝采で、ボート内はとても盛り上がってました。
待ち時間ボートがよく揺れるので、それだけでもハラハラドキドキします。全然飽きません。
二人とも事前に酔いどめを飲んでいましたが、後半につれて私は胃のあたりがモヤモヤしました。

前のペアが飛んでいる間に、ベルトを装着してくれ「チャプチャプ？(海に落ちる？)」と聞かれます。ツアー前は迷ってましたが、他のメンバーが海にチャプーンと落ちて楽しそうだったので私たちもお願いしました。
ボートの端に誘導され、パラシュートをつないだと思ったらあっという間に浮き上がり、はるか上空へ。１番高い１５０ｍを希望してましたが、思ったより怖くなく、風に揺られてふわふわと気持ち良いです。なにより、ボートにいるみんなが手を振ってくれたり拍手で讃えてくれるので、気分が上がります。
上空では１０分弱でしょうか。天気がよかったので、ワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドがとても綺麗に見えました。写真を撮ったり、喋ったりしている間に時間になります。私たちには短すぎず長すぎず、ちょうど良い時間でした。
期待していた海ポチャは２回もしてもらえ、とっても楽しかったです！濡れるのも胸下辺りまでなので、上がったあとも寒くはないです。
ボートへ戻ると「イエ~！」とみんなが盛り上げてくれました。港に着くまでみんなノリノリで、ボート内は本当に楽しかったです。

最後に有料写真が欲しいかどうか聞かれます。
３０ドルですが、私たちは迷わず購入しました。
帰りのボートでは「日本からのお客さんに拍手~！」と英語で盛り上げてくださり、終始アウェイな感じはありませんでした。
みんな親切でノリもよく、参加して本当によかったと思いました。

We go by boat to the point where we fly. In the session I participated in, there were 10 people in 5 groups. We take turns flying, but I got seasick while waiting. Other participants also seemed to be struggling with motion sickness, so I recommend taking anti-nausea medication in advance. Although I did get sick, the parasailing itself was really fun. It was also enjoyable to be briefly dropped into the sea when returning after flying for a certain period. I want to go again!

船で飛ぶポイントまで行きます。
私が参加した回は10人の5組でした。
順番に飛ばしてもらうのですが、待っている間に酔いました。
他の参加者も酔って大変そうだったので、事前に酔い止めを飲むことをオススメします。
酔いはしたけど、パラセール自体はとっても楽しいです。
一定時間飛んで、戻る時に海にボチャンと一瞬落とされるのも、楽しかったです。
また行きたいと思います‼
