I participated on the day I arrived in Hawaii. The only downside was that no one spoke Japanese, but that didn't matter because I had a wonderful time with stunning views. It felt great, and since it was sunny, I was able to see a beautiful sunset. I was lucky to also see a rainbow on the mountain side. I definitely want to join again on my next trip to Hawaii!

日本語はまったく通じないのが難点でしたが…
そんなことは気にならないくらい素晴らしい景色、素晴らしい時間を過ごせました。
とにかく気持ちが良くて、晴れていたのでサンセットもきれいに見れました。
山側に虹も見れてラッキーでした。

This is completely unacceptable. It's understandable that we couldn't see any whales, but the complete lack of announcements was extremely unkind. The worst! When I called to reboard, the rude response from the Japanese staff was the lowest! If there was even one thing to praise, I would mention it, but there is absolutely nothing, only criticism! I am very disappointed.
全く話にならない。クジラは見られなかったのは、そういうのはしょうがない事だが、アナウンスが全くなくて、不親切極まりない。最低!電話で再乗船申し込みをしたら日本人の感じの悪い対応は最低!一つでも褒める事があれば書くけど、全くなくて貶すだけ!非常に残念に思う。

Great things were the weather, water and warmth of the staff. Whale sightings were unfortunately few and at a great distance such that mostly splashes and puffs of water were seen only. Boat was nice, top deck offers the best views. Kids had fun.

The price is a bit high, but I was very satisfied with the breakfast and whale watching. It was a bit cold in January, so I think it's a good idea to bring a hoodie or something similar.
少々値段ははりますが、朝ごはん、ホエールウォッチング大満足です

I was torn about which boat to choose, but since I had already taken a dinner cruise on the Star of Honolulu, I opted for the slightly smaller Majestic. The weather was nice, and the contrast between Diamond Head and the ocean was beautifully visible.
After heading out for a while, I spotted a whale's spout and was able to see its back and tail. After that, I saw quite a few spouts, but I couldn't confirm their full appearance. The boat was rocking quite a bit, and it seemed like many people were feeling a bit worn out, so it might be a good idea for those who are prone to motion sickness to take some medication beforehand. I bought motion sickness pills at ABC and was fine. If you're worried about foreign medication, it's better to bring extra from Japan!
どの船にするか悩みましたが、スターオブホノルル号にはディナークルーズで乗ったので、少し小さめのマジェスティック号にしました。天気も良く、ダイヤモンドヘッドと海のコントラストがキレイに見えました。
沖に出てしばらくすると、クジラの潮吹きが見え、背中、尾びれと見ることが出来ました。その後は潮吹きは結構見えましたが、姿を確認するまでには至りませんでした。結構揺れが激しく、ぐったりしている方も多かった様なので、酔いやすい人は薬を飲んでいった方が良いようです。私はABCで酔い止めを買って飲んだので大丈夫でした。海外の薬が不安なら日本から多目に買っていった方がいいですよ!

I had a tour scheduled to arrive at Honolulu Airport on February 7th at 7:30. Since I couldn't check into the hotel until after 1 PM, I was wondering what to do because of jet lag, when I found this tour departing at 12:00. I was picked up from the airport around 9:00 and took the Red Line to Aloha Tower, where I boarded the ship without any issues. I'm glad I was able to make good use of my time.
二月7日、7:30にホノルル空港に到着予定のツアーでした。ホテルには午後1時過ぎでないと入れないとの事でしたので、時差ぼけだし、どうしようかと思っていたところ、12:00発のこのツアーを見つけました。空港からホテルに送ってもらったのが、9:00頃で、レッドラインで、アロハタワーに行き無事乗船しました。有効な時間の使い方が出来て良かったです。

I participated with a friend.
We didn't see any whales.
Therefore, they were distributing re-boarding tickets towards the end of the cruise (it's a system where you have to go get it yourself, so be careful not to forget!).
Although we didn't see any whales, I had fun just being on the boat!!
However, since it was just simple scenery unless any creatures appeared, I noticed a few children looking bored.
It might be a bit tricky for those with small children...
After disembarking, there was someone who seemed to be the captain, and I was able to take a photo with him (^V^).
I was grateful that he was friendly and posed for the picture.
友人と参加しました。
クジラは見られませんでした。
そのため、クルーズの終わりごろに再乗車券を配布していました(自分でもらいに行くシステムなので忘れないように注意!)。
クジラは見られませんでしたが、私は船に乗るだけで楽しかったです!!
しかし、生き物が出ない限り単純な風景が続くだけなので、退屈そうにしているお子さんがチラホラいました。
小さいお子さんがいらっしゃる方は微妙かもしれません…
下船後、船長さんらしき方がいらっしゃったので一緒に写真を撮っていただきました(^V^)
気さくに写ってくださってありがたかったです。

As the title suggests, whether you can see a jump depends on luck at that moment. After waiting for two hours, I finally caught a glimpse of a dorsal fin and saw it spouting water, but I couldn't help but wish to see a more spectacular sight like in the photos. Still, when I spotted it, I was simply thrilled to see it!
Also, if you are prone to motion sickness, it's definitely better to take some medication beforehand. (I usually don't get motion sickness, but I felt a bit queasy...)
I might have just been unlucky, but I think it's better to approach it with the mindset of "I might see a whale during the cruise, how lucky!" rather than "I will definitely see a whale!"
If I could wish for something, it would be great to have more events on the boat, like experiences with Hawaiian instruments, songs, the meaning of hula dancing, and how to move your hands, etc. There seems to be a lack of connection with the participants.
タイトル通りです。ジャンプが見られるかどうかはその時の運次第。
2時間待ってようやく海面から背びれがちらっと、潮を吹いているのが分かったという程度でしたので、思わず、写真のような姿が見たかったなぁと思いました。それでも、見つけた時はいたー!と単純に嬉しかったです。
また、乗り物酔いをする方は絶対に酔い止めを飲んでおいたほうがいいです。(普段乗り物酔いしない自分が少ししましたので。。。)
自分はたまたま運が悪かっただけかもしれませんが、「絶対クジラを見る!と意気込んで行く」というよりは、「クルーズ中にクジラが見えた、ラッキー」という感覚で行くくらいがちょうどいいかなと思いました。
欲を言えば、船の中でイベント毎がもっとあるとよかったです。例えばハワイの楽器体験・歌・フラダンスの意味・手の動かし方等々。参加者との連帯感にかける所がある。

I was attracted to the point where I could enjoy both drinks and a sunset cruise, so I signed up. While on board, I could enjoy the scenery without getting wet and felt a pleasant breeze. There’s nothing to obstruct the view, so the sunlight is dazzling until the sun sets, making sunglasses a must. This was my fourth time in Hawaii, but seeing the streets of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea offered a different perspective, which was wonderful. The duration was as planned, and I was able to stick to my schedule after the cruise without any issues.
お酒とサンセットクルーズ同時に楽しめるポイントに惹かれて申込みしました。
乗船中は濡れることもなく、気持ちの良い風を浴びながら景色を堪能できます。
遮るものがないので夕日が落ちる前までは日差しが眩しいので、サングラス必須です。
4度目のハワイでしたが海から見るワイキキの街並みやダイヤモンドヘッドは一味違う景色で、とても良かったです。
所要時間も予定通りで乗船後の予定も狂うことなく過ごすことが出来ました。

It was my first time riding a submarine, and I had a lot of fun. The location was close to where I was staying, so I walked there. The staff were very kind to me, even though I arrived early and couldn't speak English. I'm grateful for that. It was probably just a coincidence, but when I participated, about 60% of the participants were Japanese. A person who could speak Japanese guided us, so I didn't need an audio guide in Japanese. I was able to see sea turtles, and it was a very enjoyable experience.
