Best adventure in Oahu!

Reviewed by: DEEPER

Crew, Equipment exceeded expectation, for swimmers and non swimmers alike. IWS Underwater scooter is an event you will cherish. My wife and I were thankful they could take us on short notice. A complete package from reservation, pick up, instruction, operation, pics and drop off.

I was moved. 感動しました。

Reviewed by: あいあい♪

I was really looking forward to the underwater walk on this trip, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience just as I had hoped. I was moved by the beautiful underwater scenery and the fish and sea turtles swimming up close. The guide was also kind and attentive, which made it easy for me to trust them with my children. I'm glad I purchased the memorable photos and videos. I definitely want to experience it again!

Not even close to what is advertised

Reviewed by: Oz-visitors

We were very disappointed with this tour as it's nothing like the video on their ad. First of all the vessels are mechanically disabled so you don't get to operate them; instead you get pushed around by divers. Also the video shows several people in the water at the same time which is also not true. They only had 3 bubbles taking groups of 3 down at a time and when you have 25 people on the tour, you end up spending most of the day waiting around for them to finish. They did offer some fins and snorkels but there weren't nearly enough of them to accomodate everyone that were waiting. I wouldn't recommend this tour, you can find cheaper boat or snorkeling tours for a fraction of the coast. It was kind of like renting a bike where you're not allowed to use the pedals or the handles and someone just pushes you around instead.

I had a good time and the staff was really friendly. The pictures and videos they take of you are cool but a bit on the pricey side, especially because we are from Canada and it’s more expensive than USD. They provided us with chips and water which was ok but I give them a 5 star because of how nice they were. Overall it was fun.

This was one of my favorite activities on my vacation. The entire team was very nice and made sure we understood what we were doing and had a good time. I really enjoyed being able to be underwater to see the fish and sea turtles without having to learn to scuba dive or deal with snorkel gear below the surface of the water. The pictures and video from the activity were also very well done and a good price.

It's June, but the sea in Hawaii is cold. 6月なのにハワイの海は寒い

Reviewed by: 静岡の海人

I thought I would be operating the underwater scooter myself, but the diver controlled the left, right, and up and down movements, so I was a bit disappointed that I only had to open the throttle. This time, it was a bit chilly after the experience, possibly because of the cloudy sky from the volcanic smoke on the Big Island, so I needed something to wear afterward.

水中スクーターは自分で操作するのかと思っていたらダイバーが左右上下をするので、ただアクセルを開けるだけだったのが少しがっかりでした
今回はハワイ島の噴煙で曇り空だったせいか肌寒かったので体験後は羽織るものが必要でした

I participated alone while looking at past experiences. 過去の体験談を拝見しつつ一人参加。

Reviewed by: pppanda

I tend to get motion sickness easily, so I took some anti-nausea medication beforehand. Even so, I felt quite nauseous while waiting. However, once I went underwater, the nausea disappeared, and it was fun to see the fish swimming around. It was a cloudy day, and I thought the water would be cold, but surprisingly it wasn't, and the sea was beautifully blue. While waiting, we were also allowed to feed the fish from the boat, which helped ease my nausea during that time. I was a bit worried because the instructions on how to operate the equipment and equalize my ears were given in English and gestures, but it turned out fine! I wish there was a place and time to change before heading back, even if just for 10 minutes.

乗り物酔いしやすいほうなので酔い止めも事前に飲んで参加。
それでも待機中にかなり酔いました。
しかし海に潜ると酔いもどこへやら、魚がわさわさ寄ってきて楽しかったです。
曇りの日で海中は寒いかと思いましたが、意外とそんなこともなく、海も青くてきれいでした。
待機中は船から餌やりもさせてもらえ、その間は酔いが楽でした。
機械の動かし方や耳抜きの仕方が英語＆身振りだったので大丈夫か！？と不安になりましたが大丈夫でした笑。
帰る前に10分でいいので着替える場所と時間があるといいな～と思います。

I do not recommend the rainy season. I think it's better to choose a different time to participate. 雨期はおススメしません。時期を選んで参加した方がいいと思います。

The rain has stopped, but the wind was strong due to the clouds, and it was cold enough to make me feel like I was freezing. Some participants were wearing down jackets because of the cold. The waves were high from the wind, and the sea water was murky with low visibility. Also, tips are not included in the tour fee, so I intended to give a tip, but the pressure for tips was overwhelming and took away from the experience.

雨は止みましたが、雲で風が強く、寒くて凍えそうでした。
寒くて一部参加者はダウンジャケットを着ていました。
風で波が高く、海の水は濁り、透明度はあまりありませんでした。

My 2nd time, and I brought along 23 people with me and again it was GREAT. All our first timers LOVED it. It was rough seas from a severe storm the two previous days, which affected seeing the crater on the sea floor, but lots of fish were out to play. Saw quite a few turtles too.
All my guests said it was TERRIFIC and they had a ball!!
The crew are always smiling, helpful and FUN!!!

The fish is cute. 魚かわいい

Reviewed by: あさひ

Before entering the water, we gathered as a group of Japanese people to watch a video. Since it was just watching, I wondered if I could really do it, which made me quite anxious. I thought a Japanese guide would be on our boat, but instead, we were on a different boat with only local people, and since we couldn't communicate, it added to my unease.

I had assumed my face wouldn't get wet, so I wore makeup, but I ended up getting soaked while entering and exiting the water. We were divided into groups and it felt like a conveyor belt as we kept going into the sea. For those who are scared, being pushed underwater without any mental preparation can be frightening.

It was unfortunate that the weather was bad and cold. While other groups were doing their activities, we were told we could snorkel freely, but there was no one to follow us (there might have been someone, but we couldn't communicate!). There was one person snorkeling alone, but there were no staff watching over us. Given the high cost, it was disappointing to think that the snorkeling fee was included for just a 10-minute Sea Bob experience with no one to supervise.

However, the underwater scenery was beautiful!

入水前に日本人だけで集められビデオを観ます。観るだけなので、本当に出来るかな？？と、なかなか不安を煽られます。
日本人ガイドさんも船に乗ってくれると思っていましたが、違う船に乗られ、現地の方だけしかおらず言葉も通じないので不安でした。
顔は濡れないと思っていたので化粧をしていったのですが出入りでがっつり濡れます。
グループ分けをされ流れ作業のように、どんどん海に入っていく形でした。心の準備をする前に海にもぐらされるので怖い人は怖いと思います。
あいにくの天気で寒かったのが残念です。
また他のグループが行なっている間、シュノーケルは自由にしていいとのことでしたが、誰もがフォローしてくれる人がおらず(いたのかもしれないけど言葉が通じない！)出来ませんでした。
１人シュノーケルをしてる人はいましたが、誰もスタッフで見ている人はいませんでした。
高い金額なだけに、10分のシーボブ体験のみに、誰もみてくれないシュノーケル代も込みかぁ…と残念です。
海の中は綺麗でした！

A fantastic experience ... but

Reviewed by: MerlinsEgo

First, allow me to emphasize just how professional and engaged the divers, driver and the captain was on this experience. Seriously these guys were fantastic .. they were always attentive, showed understanding and you felt in very capable hands the whole time. This aspect was important to my wife as she had some very serious apprehensions about doing this ..but being a dutiful husband I badgered her until she agreed :-) .. took a few weeks.

The pre-trip meeting answered any questions we had and explained the workings of the submersible in terms of engaging the motor .. but nothing in regards to steering the vessel which i thought interesting.

We had a big group of approx 20 people so we just all fitted on the small boat. The seas were a little rough so a few people got a little woozy but nothing too bad.

My wife and I were one of the first to try out the scooters and the process to get in them was simple and effective .. no diving underwater to get in them .. this was a relief to my wife. We were in the water almost immediately and already could see fish in the distance. So we were very excited !

Here is where i was a little disappointed .. we had been trained to use foot pedals to engage the motor for the propellor but mine seemed to be a much older model and had the button on the steering column. No big deal i guess except i had an underwater camera with me and hence could not use it while the motor was engaged, which is approx 80% of the time. Consequently i was unable to take many photos .. disappointed.
I now understood why we were not taught the steering of the submersible ..you don't steer it ..there is a diver that holds onto 2 of the vessels the whole time and steers it. This was disappointing as i had no control on where to go.

In summary this was a FANTASTIC experience and again i want to emphasize how good the divers and crew were .. BUT it felt more like an amusement park ride than what the marketing suggests.

Thanks guys

It's easy!! 簡単にできる！！

Reviewed by: さんた

I believe the place where I watched the Japanese video before getting on the boat was near Kakaako.

The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that while they take photos for you, I thought it was a bit expensive, so I gave it 4 stars (I don't remember the price ^^;).

Since there is food for the fish on the scooter, they came swimming around a lot, which was really fun!! You can also eat plenty of snacks!

Unlike diving, even those who can't swim can easily participate. However, this means there are fewer activity elements. When I went diving at another place, they provided thorough instructions on equalizing, but here the video only said, "If your ears hurt, please equalize," so I felt that some people might struggle with that.

恐らく、ボートや乗る前の日本語ビデオを見た場所はカカアコ付近だったと思います。

最初に星5ではない理由ですが、写真を撮ってくれるのですが、高いなぁと思ったので星4つにしました(値段は覚えてないです^^;)。

スクーターにエサが付いているので、魚が凄い寄ってきて楽しかったです！！スナックもいっぱい食べれます！

ダイビングと違い、泳げない人でも簡単に乗ることが出来ます。その分、アクティビティ要素は少ないです。
ですが、他の場所でダイビングをした時は、耳抜きの説明を入念にされたましたが、こちらはビデオで「耳が痛ければ耳抜きをして下さい」程度の説明だけなので、出来ない人もいるんじゃないかな？と感じました。
