This was my first time using the service. It was supposed to be a sunset cruise, but since we set sail when it was getting dark, I couldn't see the sunset. However, I was satisfied because we had a great view of the fireworks that are held every Friday from the sea. After the fireworks ended, we had more cruise time than I expected, and I enjoyed a delicious Mai Tai while stargazing (though it was a bit weak). The waves were high, but I didn't get seasick and had a great time.
初めて利用させていただきました。
サンセットということでしたが、出航は辺りが暗くなる頃でしたので、夕日は見れませんでした。
金曜恒例の花火は海からよく見えたので、これは満足できました。
また花火終了後は、思った以上にクルーズ時間があり、星を見ながら、マイタイを美味しくいただけました。(ちょっと薄かったけど)
波が高かったのですが、船酔いもせず、楽しめましたよ。

For about ten years, my mother and I have been visiting Hawaii almost every year, but this time we decided to try sailing for the first time and boarded the Mai Tai Catamaran, which departs near our hotel. I used to stay at the Sheraton, so I often saw it, but I never thought to ride it... For some reason, I was curious this time and decided to give it a try, and it was so much fun! I wish I had done this every year. As mentioned in other reviews, there were very few Japanese people on board. Besides us, there was only one couple, and the rest were from various countries, which made it even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was lively! My mother doesn't speak English, but she had a great time getting wet and laughing with someone from another country who was sitting across from us, using gestures to communicate. It was refreshing to look at the city of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea and feel the ocean breeze. We also saw sea turtles. The duration of the trip was just right. I read in other reviews that it was good to bring less luggage, so I tried to minimize what I brought. Before boarding, they took our picture, which we could purchase on the way back for $20. Unfortunately, I didn't have the money to buy it, and that's the only regret I have.
10年程前からほぼ毎年ハワイに母娘で訪れていたのですが、今回初めてセーリングをしてみようと思い、ホテル近くから出航するマイタイ・カタマラン号に乗りました。昔、シェラトンを利用していたので、よく見かけていたのですが、乗ってみようと思うことがなく・・・。なぜか今回気になって乗ってみたら、とっても楽しくて、これなら毎年乗ればよかったと思いました。他の方の口コミにもありましたが、日本人は少ないです。私達の他に、1組カップルの方がいたくらいで、他は国際色豊かでした。それが、また楽しかったですね。ノリがいいので!母は英語が話せませんが、向かいに座った違う国の方と共に濡れて、一緒に笑ってジェスチャーを交えて楽しそうでした。海からワイキキの街やダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めて、海風を感じて爽快でした。あと、ウミガメも見れました。時間もちょうどいい長さでした。他の方の口コミで、荷物を少なくして乗船したと記載されてたので、持ち物を極力少なくして行ったら、乗る前に写真を撮ってくれて、帰るときに購入できるのですが・・・20ドル。持ってなくて買えませんでした。それだけが心残りでした。

This was my second time on the Holokai Catamaran, and it was my first time at Sunset Cruises. The staff really got everyone excited, and it was a fun time. I was able to see parts of Diamond Head that I wouldn't normally see, which made me feel like I was really in Hawaii! The sunset was also very beautiful, and the locals surfing looked amazing. I think the unlimited drinks at a great price were a fantastic deal! Thank you very much!

We participated in this cruise as the start of my cousin's bachelor party and boy what a great way to start it out! The catamaran was so cool, there was plenty of room for everyone, the staff was helpful and very friendly, and the views were breathtaking. We even saw a sea turtle at the end! The staff made it so fun and made some pretty good drinks to boot. The appetizers were not great, but that is not why we were on the cruise. It was a relaxing and easy cruise right off the pier and around Diamond Head. The sunset views were beautiful. I would highly recommend taking a sunset Waikiki Sail on the Spirit of Aloha.

There were about 20 participants, mostly Westerners, along with my family and another group of Japanese people. The staff was friendly, and Mai Tais, beer, and soft drinks were all-you-can-drink. Initially, only those who wanted a Mai Tai raised their hands, and they were served accordingly. After that, those who wanted juice could request it themselves. Instead of moving sideways near the Diamond Head, we stopped the engine and sailed straight out to sea using only the power of the sails. If you sit on the right side during the ride, you can enjoy the view of Diamond Head on the way out and the sunset on the way back, which I highly recommend.
Those who ordered alcoholic drinks like Mai Tais put about $5 in the tip box when disembarking. They also took a commemorative photo with the yacht when boarding, which you can purchase for $20 if you like. I bought it as a keepsake, and it became a wonderful memory! The boarding point is at the beach near the Sheraton's Halekulani. It's a bit hard to find, so please be careful. It's a white yacht.
日本人は私たち家族ともう一組であとは欧米人ばかり20人ほど参加していました。
スタッフもフレンドリーでマイタイやビール、ソフトドリンクは飲み放題。最初にマイタイ希望者のみ手を挙げ人数分サーブされ、その後にジュースなどの希望者は自分でリクエストします。ダイヤモンドベッド近くに横に進むというよりエンジンを止めてかなりの沖合までビーチに垂直に帆の力だけで進みます。乗船は右側に座ると行きはダイヤモンドベッド、帰りはサンセットを眺めれるのでオススメです。
マイタイ等アルコールを注文した人達は降りる時に5ドルほどチップを箱の中に入れていました。乗船時にヨットと記念撮影してくれ気に入れば20ドルで購入出来ます。
記念に購入しましたが良い思い出になりました!乗船はシェラトンのハレクラニ側のビーチです。わかりづらいので気をつけてください。白いヨットです。

I made a reservation thinking I would swim with dolphins that are accustomed to being fed and cared for by humans, but it was completely different. We entered the vast ocean where dolphins live naturally, and to avoid stressing them, we observed them while swimming at the surface. It was truly moving. Seeing the cute dolphins swimming gracefully underwater somehow brightened my heart and made me feel happy! I highly recommend it! After that, we also encountered a group of giant turtles, which was very healing!
飼育され餌付けされた人間に慣れているイルカと泳ぐのかなあ?くらいの気持ちで予約したのですが、全然違って、全くの自然に生息しているイルカさんたちの大海原にお邪魔して、水中を泳ぐイルカさんたちにストレスをかけないように、人間は水面を泳ぎなら観察するというスタイルで、とても感動しました。海中をスイスイ泳いでいるイルカさんたちのかわいい姿、見たら不思議と、心が明るくなってハッピイになれますよ~お勧めです❗この後、巨大亀さんの群れにも遭遇、癒されました~❗

I participated at the request of my elementary school child. The best part was getting to see the turtles. There were also photos for sale, which were expensive, but I bought one because it turned out well. Additionally, it was nice that the pressure inside the submarine was constant, so my ears didn't hurt.

We participated as a couple. We were the only Japanese people there. The explanation was only in English, but it was sufficient. The snorkeling lasted about 30 minutes, which was enough for us. The yacht ride afterwards was very refreshing with the splashes of water. Riding on the yacht became a great memory. The captain was really cool. It departs from Waikiki and returns in the morning, so I recommend it.

We had a fabulous time on our snorkel sail. Loved the convenience of being able to walk to the boat launch, and the crew (including check-in personnel) were warm and welcoming. We were elated and surprised to be greeted by a pod of spinner dolphin as we sailed out off of Waikiki -- an unusual sight! -- and my kids were thrilled to watch them racing the boat. The snorkeling itself was great...not a ton of different types of fish, but we saw a half-dozen sea turtles and a couple of eels (COMPLETELY worth the trip). Our guides even found a small octopus for us to ogle!
Free snacks (chips) are provided, and water, beer, soda, and cocktails are available to purchase. They snorkel and mask they provided us were good quality with no issues. (No fins though, so if you have your own set you might want to bring them.) Highly recommended! We will be repeating the experience the next time we are on Oahu.

We went for a premium tour with a large submarine (65 seats). The windows are large but tinted and the view is therefore less clear. Aided by loads of sand that cannot settle by so many submarines' tours during each day, the visibility is really low. The tour includes views of two ship racks and some airplane racks that turned artificial coral reefs. All of this is on a sandy bottom and there is no fish in between the racks. So overall, very little is seen really on those tours. I fully support the decision not to disturb the natural reefs and fish habitats but I think that the tour is overpriced for what one can see on this tour.

I was swayed for longer than I expected. We departed while it was still a bit light out, but it quickly got dark, and the fireworks were really beautiful. Since I participated on the day I arrived in Honolulu, the sway of the boat was pleasantly soothing, and I dozed off a bit due to the time difference... I didn't understand the language, but the atmosphere was good, so I had a great time.

My wife and I recently moved to the island and chose this cruise as our first adventure here. The crew is great and extremely knowledgable and they make you feel comfortable on board. They took us on a solid tour up and down Waikiki beach. Amazing view and perfect weather. The bartender was awesome and made some great drinks. The prices were reasonable, especially considering what drinks cost in the Waikiki area. Buy the souvenir mug if you're looking for a deal. They can make you 16oz cocktails for the same price as the little drinks. If you're looking for a couple hours on the water and a few awesome drinks, this is the cruise for you.
