All Reviews for Water Sports in Waikiki

On December 1st, I participated with five friends during a training trip. I was worried because none of us could speak English, but the staff were very kind and mixed in a little Japanese while talking, which made me feel very relieved. Although the number of participants was odd, they prepared a setup for three people so that we could fly in groups of three and two. After flying, while we were waiting on the boat, they played music and engaged us in conversation, so we never got bored and had a lot of fun! If I ever go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to do this again! Thank you very much!

12/1に、研修旅行の合間に友達5人と参加しました。
誰も英語が喋れないので不安だったのですが、スタッフの皆さんがとても親切で、少し日本語も混ぜて話してくださったのでとても安心しました。
参加人数が奇数だったのですが、3人と2人で飛べるように、3人用のも用意してくれました。
飛び終わって船で待っている間も音楽をかけたり、たくさん話しかけてくれたので暇にならずとても楽しかったです！
もしハワイに行くことがあったら、絶対またやろうと思います！
ありがとうございました！

I participated in the 150 meters.
Everyone else was a foreigner, but it was totally fine.
It's scarier than I expected because it's quite high.
You can get a great view of the hotel district in Honolulu and Diamond Head.
Tipping is optional, so I think it's fine to give a little if you'd like.

150メートルで参加しました。
私達以外は外国人でしたが全然平気です。
思っていた以上に高いので怖いです。
ホノルルのホテル街やダイヤモンドヘッドが一望出来ます。
チップは任意なので良かったら渡す程度で良いと思います。

I had a great time!! There were moments when my body was submerged in the sea while returning to the boat from the sky, but I appreciated the consideration to ensure my face didn't go under, which made it enjoyable!!

とても楽しかったです！！空から船に戻る時に身体が海に浸かる事がありましたが、顔まで浸からないよう配慮もあり、楽しめました!!

I was worried about seasickness, so I took some medicine before going. It was quite rocky, so it was a good decision to take it! I participated at 120m, and it wasn't scary at all! In the end, I got splashed in the sea! (It's fine if you let them know you don't want that.) The weather was nice, so the view was great and it was the best! They explain things in simple Japanese, so I felt reassured!

船酔いが心配だったので、薬を飲んで行きました。けっこう揺れるので飲んでいて正解でした！120mで参加しましたが、全然こわくなかったです！最後に海ポチャされました！(してほしくなければ伝えれば大丈夫です)
天気が良かったので、景色もよく最高でした^^
カタコトの日本語で説明してくれるので安心です！

It was amazing!
We happened to see a rainbow and had a wonderful time as if we were the only two enjoying the breathtaking view.
It swayed a bit in the wind, but that was fun too.
In the end, we splashed into the sea!!! We got quite wet.

Motion sickness medication is a must!
It was a fun 10-minute experience of floating in the air!

最高でした！
たまたま虹も出ていて絶景を2人占めしているような幸せな時間を過ごせました
風で多少揺れますがそれも楽しかったです。
最後は海にジャボン！！！結構濡れます。

酔い止めは必須です！
10分弱の楽しい空中浮遊でした！

I experienced this with my son. Those who understood Japanese seemed to have a little bit of Korean, but everyone was kind, and both my child and I had fun riding together. When we got tired of paddling, they pulled us along and took us to the waves. However, the only downside was that there were no photos taken. Also, I wasn't sure who Hands was or if he was even there, as the young guys were the ones teaching us. Next time, I want to bring my own GoPro.

息子と2人で体験しました。
日本語がわかるかたは韓国の方が少し出来る感じでしたが、皆さん優しくて子供も私も立てて乗れて楽しかったです。
パドリングも疲れたら、ずっと引っ張って波まで連れていってくれました。
ただ、残念なのは写真が一枚もなかった事かな。
後、ハンズさんは一体誰なのか、いないのかよくわからないまま若いお兄ちゃん達が教えてくれました。
次回は自分のゴープロ持参で行きたいです

The instructor was very friendly, and I was able to ride right away on my first try! It truly became the best memory. I think I will start surfing from now on. Thank you very much.

先生はとてもフレンドリーで、最初のトライですぐに乗れました！
本当に最高の思いでになりました。これを機にサーフィンを始めようと思います。ありがとうございました。

The shuttle driver was full of humor, and it was nice to receive a hair accessory and juice from Primelia. The parasailing was also quite fun, especially getting to check for sharks in the sea. There were some people who seemed to be feeling seasick or dizzy from the altitude, so it's best to be cautious with motion sickness medication and take care of your health!

送迎のドライバーさんがユーモアに溢れ、プリメリアの髪飾りやジュースを頂きよかったです。
パラセーリングも海にサメチェックをしてもらったり、かなり楽しかったです。
船酔い？か上空酔いしてる人もいたので酔い止めならびに体調管理には気をつけた方が良いです！

Great staff and good equipment. Flawless safety record and safety was certainly a priority. Book with these folks without hesitation. Let me move around the boat safely to get best pic angles.

Very professional and fun team.

We participated as a parent-child duo in our 30s and 60s, along with three newlywed couples, all of whom were Japanese! The seats on the boat were already soaking wet, so at this point, our bottoms were wet too! Since it was the last flight, we were able to fully enjoy the view of Waikiki from the boat.

When flying, you go barefoot, so I think flip-flops would be a good idea. Since you'll be feeling the wind, it's better to wear a rash guard or T-shirt over your swimsuit! I hadn't planned on purchasing any photos, so I told them I didn't need any before putting on the gear. However, someone who had finished took some pictures for me with their smartphone.

The 150 meters was enjoyable not just for the height but also for the duration! I was worried about falling into the sea, but I only got my ankles wet, and it didn't feel like much at all. I think I could relax even more next time and would love to try again! The shuttle bus ride was very pleasant, with the driver speaking a little Japanese and slowly in English.

３０代・６０代親子で参加しました、他は新婚旅行中の３組、全員日本人です❗
ボートの席が既にビシャビシャでこの時点でお尻は濡れます❗
最後のフライトだった為、ボートからワイキキの眺めも充分楽しめました⛵
飛ぶ時は裸足になる為、ビーサンが良いかな、風を受けるので水着の上にラッシュやTシャツを羽織った方がいいと思います❗
写真の購入をするつもりがなかった為、装備装着前に写真は不要と伝えました❗終わっていた方にスマホで撮ってもらっちゃいました
150mは高さだけでなく時間も充分楽しめました❗恐れていた海ポチャも足首程度で濡れたことも感じないほど今度はもっとリラックスしてできそうでもう一度チャレンジしたい❗❗
送迎のミニバスもドライバーさんの片言の日本語とゆっくり話してくれる英語でとってもなごやかでした❗

I don’t know how to describe how amazing our parasailing experience was! Our shuttle driver, the captain & his assistant were so wonderful, we were never scared for even a moment. It’s was my greatest Hawaiian experience ever!
Aloha!

I had my first surfing experience! I was a bit anxious since I signed up the day before and wasn't sure if my reservation was confirmed, but I received a confirmation email, which put my mind at ease! There was a Japanese person at the shop's reception who I could ask questions to, so my pre-trip worries were resolved, which was great. They were kind to us, even though we were a bit clumsy, and we made wonderful memories on our trip! (I was able to stand up properly, too!)

初サーフィン体験をしてきましたー！
前日に申し込んだので、予約が出来ているのか
不安でしたが、
ちゃんと確認メールが届いたので、安心できました！
お店の受付には日本人の方がいらして質問出来たので、
事前の不安なことは解消出来たのでよかったです。
どんくさい私たちにも親切にして頂いて、
楽しい旅の思い出が出来ました！
（ちゃんと、立てましたよ）

I was really nervous about participating due to my seasickness and fear of heights, but I had an amazing time!

The reservation process was easy, and the bus that picked us up was clean! The driver was cheerful and spoke a bit of Japanese, which made me feel at ease. Unlike Japanese tours, there were other participants who were foreigners, and it was fun to interact with them!

I was scared, so I bought seasickness medication at a local drugstore. I took it, but I might have been okay without it! The boat was going fast, so I didn't feel the swaying as much as I thought I would.

During the moment of takeoff, I didn't experience the uncomfortable feeling in my stomach that I usually dislike, and even someone like me who isn't a fan of roller coasters enjoyed it! I was surprised to see many older participants, including grandparents! It's great that people of all ages can have fun!

船酔いと高所恐怖症のため参加するまでドキドキしてましたが、すっごく楽しめました！

予約も簡単で迎えにきてくれるバスはキレイ！
ドライバーさんは明るくてカタコトの日本語も喋ってくれて安心でした。
日本のツアーと違って他の参加者が外国人もいて、外国の方と触れ合えて楽しかったです！

怖かったので船酔いの薬は現地のドラッグストアで購入。飲みましたが、飲まなくてもなんとか大丈夫だったかも！
基本船がスピードがでているので、ゆらゆら揺られる感じはなく思ってたより酔わない感じでした。

飛ぶ瞬間は苦手な内臓のふわっと感もなく、ジェットコースターが苦手な私でも楽しめました！
他の参加者の方もおじいちゃん、おばあちゃんも多く参加されててびっくりしました！
年齢に関係なく楽しめて最高です！

We participated at my wife's request, saying, "Since we're going to Hawaii, I want to ride the waves." Both of us had never surfed before, and we were anxious about whether we could actually stand on the surfboard, but thanks to the instructor's careful guidance, we were able to ride the waves successfully.

The feeling of standing on the board and gliding smoothly was amazing. During the experience, another staff member took photos of us surfing with a DSLR camera, and when we returned to the classroom, they provided the photos on a USB memory stick for $35 (additional charge). It became a wonderful memory.

「せっかくハワイに行くので、波にのりたい」という妻のリクエストで参加しました。二人ともサーフィンは未体験で果たしてサーフボードの上に立てるのか、不安もありましたが、先生が丁寧に教えてくれたこともあり、無事波に乗ることができました。
ボードに立ち、滑るように進んだ時の感覚は最高でした。
体験中には別のスタッフの方が一眼レフでサーフィン中の写真を撮ってくれていて、教室に戻るとUSBメモリで提供してくれます(35ドル、別料金)。最高の思い出になりました。

I participated in the 120-meter experience! It was quite high, so I was a bit anxious, but once I was up in the sky, it was amazing with hardly any swaying! The ascent was over in no time!
As others have mentioned, there is a fair amount of waiting time on the boat, so it’s a good idea to prepare some motion sickness medication. I took some beforehand, so I was comfortable.
They sell photos for $30. The colorful umbrellas make for great photo opportunities! My smile is captured perfectly, and the water splash scenes are spot on. There were quite a few shots of the scenery, umbrellas, sky, and our faces. We had over 80 photos taken during our time.
When taking photos with a smartphone, they often turn out quite small, and it’s hard to get a good shot of our faces because of the swaying...
I highly recommend getting the SD card from the crew! I also gave a tip to the crew separately.
This was the best memory of my trip to Hawaii!

120メートルに参加しました！かなりの高さなのでちょっと不安でしたが、空に上がればあまり揺れることもなく最高でした！上がるまでもあっという間！
他の方もかかれているように、船の上での待機・待ち時間がそこそこありますので、酔い止めは準備された方が良さそう。飲んでいったので快適でした。
30ドルで写真撮ったものを販売してくれます。パラソルの色もカラフルなのでかなり写真映えます
笑顔もちゃん写ってるし水ぽちゃシーンもバッチリ。風景、パラソルと空、顔、と結構な枚数入ってました。私たちのときは80枚超えでした。
スマホで撮るとかなり小さかったり、顔が本当に写りにくい、揺れるのでなかなか上手く撮れず。。。
クルーさんに販売してもらうSDカードはおススメです！
SDカード代とは別に、クルーさんへのチップは握ってお渡ししました。
ハワイ旅行で一番の思い出です！

I was really anxious because I couldn't speak English at all. The staff were locals, but they were kind and mixed in a little Japanese when explaining, which made it easy to understand! There was always music playing on the boat, and the atmosphere was great, making it a very enjoyable memory!

英語は全然話せないので不安でした。。
スタッフは現地の人でしたが優しく少しだけ日本語を混ぜて説明してくれたのでわかりやすかったです！
船では常に音楽がかかっておりノリも良くとても楽しい思い出になりました！！

I was taught with great care, and it was very good! I was very satisfied! Thank you very much. I definitely recommend it for first-timers as well!

丁寧に教えていただき、とても良かったです！
とても満足できました！ありがとうございました。初めての方も是非オススメです！

We experienced my daughter's long-awaited parasailing. The weather was great, and it felt wonderful. Since my daughter is small, we did a tandem parasail (with her in front and me in the back). We took a boat to the point, so if you're prone to seasickness, it's better to take some medication. The staff were fun, and both of us had a blast. I highly recommend this activity. You can also get photos taken, but there is a fee for that.

娘の念願のパラセイリング　体験しました。天気にも恵まれ　とても気持ちよかったです。娘が小さいということもあり　タンデム（娘が前で自分が後ろ）でのパラセイルでした。船でポイントまで行くので　船が弱い方は薬飲んだほうが良いです。スタッフの方も楽しくて親子とも大はしゃぎでした。とてもお奨めのアクティビティです。写真もとってもらえます。有料です。

I participated in a morning group lesson by myself. Before going, I had some anxiety about attending alone, but there were three other people, and we quickly bonded and shared a fun time together. As for the lesson itself, we used a board that was significantly longer than usual. When the waves came, the instructor pushed the board for us, so we were able to catch the waves right away, which was a lot of fun. If I have the opportunity, I would definitely like to participate again.

朝一のグループレッスンに1人で参加しました。
行く前は1人での参加に多少の不安がありましたが、1人の方は他にも3人居られ、直ぐに打ち解け楽しい時間を共有する事が出来ました。
肝心のレッスンですが、通常よりかなり長いボードを使いました。
波が来るとインストラクターがボード押してくれるので、直ぐに波に乗る事が出来とても楽しかったです。
機会があれば是非また参加したいです。

This time, my wife and I challenged ourselves to 150m of parasailing. To put it simply, it was incredibly high. However, both my wife and I are completely fine with heights, so the view of Waikiki from above was absolutely beautiful. If you're comfortable with heights, I highly recommend trying the 150m experience. The beauty there exceeds expectations.

Also, you will definitely end up splashing into the sea at the end. (laughs) Wearing a swimsuit is a must. I also think it's a good idea to wear a T-shirt that you don't mind getting wet. Since you will get wet, it's best to bring a change of clothes as well. The two instructors could speak a little Japanese, which was reassuring.

And since it's Hawaii, you will be expected to give a tip at the end. I would say around $10 to $20 each.

今回、妻と１５０mのパラセーリングに挑戦しました。
結果から言うと、とにかく高い。
ですが私も妻も高い所は全然平気なので、空から見るワイキキの景色は美しすぎました。
高所が平気な方は是非150mに挑戦してみてはいかがでしょうか。期待以上の美しさがそこにありますよ。
あと、最後はしっかり海ポチャされます。笑
水着着用は必須です。あと、着て行く服も濡れてもいいTシャツなどで行くと良いかと思います。
濡れるので着替えも持って行っておくと言うことなしです。
インストラクターの2人も少しなら日本語が話せる方で安心でした。
あと、ハワイなので最後にやっぱりチップは要求されます。10〜20$ずつって所でしょうか。

It was amazing! My husband, daughter, and I participated together. Since we were there, we chose the 150m option. My husband, who has a fear of heights, seemed anxious right up until the last minute, but on the day itself, while they were explaining everything, he quickly got caught up in the excitement and didn't feel much fear at all. The only disappointment was that the weather was cloudy and it drizzled occasionally, so we couldn't take photos of our aerial walk against a blue sky. There's nothing we could do about that, though...

最高でした❗️夫婦と娘の3人で参加。
せっかくなので…と150mを選択しました。
高所恐怖症の夫は直前まで不安そうでしたが
いざ当日になると、色々説明されてる間にあっという間に舞い上がってたって感じでさほど恐怖心を感じる間もなかったって感じです。
唯一残念なので天候曇り空で時々パラパラ雨模様だったので青空の中での空中散歩を写真に撮れなかったことだけ。こればっかりはどうしようもないですけど…

I experienced the 150m course! We arrived at the departure point in about 15 minutes by shared van. From there, we headed out to sea for about 10 minutes by boat to start the activity. I wore a shirt over my swimsuit and off we went into the sky! I thought it might be a little scary, but it was incredibly pleasant and so much fun! The guide also explained things in broken Japanese. The view of the beautiful sea from up high was amazing!

150mのコースを体験しました！乗り合いのバンで15分ほどで出発地に到着。
そこから船で10分ほど沖にでてアクティビティ開始でした。水着の上にシャツをきていざ空へ！少し怖いかと思ってましたがとーっても気持ちよくすごく楽しかったです！ガイドのお兄さんも片言の日本語で説明してくれます。高いところから綺麗な海の眺めは最高でした！

It was my first time both abroad and on a longboard, but the reservation process was smooth, and I was able to communicate in Japanese without any issues. Haha! I took a step forward and created the best memories! Next time, I want to participate with my wife.

海外もロングボードも初でしたが、予約もスムーズで心配してた日本語も実際はしっかり会話もでき問題無かったです。笑
一歩踏み出して最高の思い出が出来ました！
次回は妻と一緒に参加したいと思います。

It was my first parasailing experience, and I was very moved to see all of Hawaii from above! During my time, there were four groups on the boat, and we boarded in the specified order. I also purchased photo data, but I brought my smartphone and was able to take a lot of pictures myself, which made me very satisfied!

初のパラセーリング体験だったのですが、
ハワイを一望できてとても感動しました！
私の時は4組で船にのり、
船の上で指定された順番でどんどんのって行く形でした。
写真データも購入しましたが、自身でもスマホを持ち込み、たくさん写真を撮る事ができ、大満足です！

I'll keep this short and sweet as possible: This experience was AMAZING. My wife and I were in Hawaii for our 1-year wedding anniversary. As neither of us had ever gone parasailing before, we decided to give it a shot and it was an absolute blast.

PROS: The tours guides (the captains, I feel bad for not remember their names), boat, instruction, comfort of harnesses, and safety were all 5 stars! The view was incredible. Coming from two guests that had never done this before, it's safe to say that we loved the experience and will definitely use this company in the future. For those of you wondering, splurge and get the boat pictures. They offer this service at $30 and it is well worth it considering the amount of pictures you get on a SD card to take home!

CONS: Only 1, but worth mentioning. We booked the 800ft (8 minute) parasailing trip. From our GoPro, we were only in the air for about 6 minutes and 30 seconds. BUT WHO CARES! I only say this because we could have enjoyed 20 minutes in the air! Easily one of the most incredible experiences we have had!

You won't be disappointed!

It was so much fun!! We went with a group of six people, three couples in total. My husband and the husband of the other couple are both afraid of heights and the ocean, and before getting on, they were saying, "I'm scared... I really don't want to do this..." They were really nervous, but once we got on, they said, "That was fun! I could totally handle it!" My husband was scared, so we chose the 120m option, but he regretted it later, saying, "I could have done the 150m..." If you're unsure whether to choose 120m or 150m, I think you'll probably be fine with the 150m. It was brief, but we even got to see a sea turtle, which made for an amazing memory!

すごく楽しかったです!!
乗り合わせで6人計3組で乗りました。
私の旦那と、乗り合わせた夫婦の旦那さんは
高いところと海が苦手な人で、
乗るまでは｢怖いなぁ…やっぱ乗りたくないなぁ…｣と、
ビビりまくってましたが、いざ乗ると
｢楽しかった！全然いけた！｣とご満悦でした
旦那が怖がっていたので120ｍにしましたが
｢150ｍでもいけたなぁ…｣と後悔してました
120ｍか150ｍかで迷う方は150ｍにしても
多分大丈夫だと思います
一瞬でしたがウミガメも会うことが出来て、本当に最高の思い出です！

For our once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon, we chose parasailing as our activity! My husband has a fear of heights, but the view was so beautiful that he was completely fine! It seems that he was more impressed, saying, "Wow, this is amazing!" The transportation to the hotel was also very helpful, and what made me happiest was that they took so many photos that we couldn't have captured ourselves and sold them to us! We made the best memories! Thank you very much!

一生に一度のハネムーンで選んだアクティビティはパラセーリング！
旦那は高所恐怖症だったけど、景色が綺麗すぎて全然大丈夫でした‍♀️！それより「うわーすげー綺麗！」と感動の方が大きかったみたいです(^ ^)そしてホテルまでの送迎もとても助かりましたし、何より自分達じゃ撮れない写真をたくさん撮ってくれてメディアを売ってくれたことが何より嬉しかったです！最高の思い出ができました！ありがとうございました！

I was anxious because I'm not good at English, but it was fine since they spoke to me in broken Japanese! They had consent forms and instructions available in Japanese, so I think it's totally okay even if you can't speak any English. I went flying with my 67-year-old mother at 120 meters, and she was thrilled because it wasn't scary and was just the right height. However, the boat swayed quite a bit! I tend to get motion sickness, so even after taking motion sickness medication, I felt nauseous by the end. If you're prone to motion sickness, definitely take strong medication! They asked each group, "Do you want to take photos?" with a telephoto camera, so if you say no, you won't be photographed. It seemed like you could buy the photos on the way back if you asked. It was written that you could choose whether to land in the water or not, but no one was asked, and everyone landed in the water, which was a bit disappointing. It felt uncomfortable to get into the car while still wet. At the end, they said, "If you had a good time, please give a tip," so everyone was giving $20. I think it's good to prepare that in advance. Since it finishes in the morning, you have the whole afternoon free. The content and schedule were great!

英語が得意でないため不安でしたが、カタコトの日本語で話してくれるので大丈夫でした！同意書も説明書も日本語が用意されてるし、まったく英語を話せなくても大丈夫だと思います。67歳の母と120mで飛びましたが、怖くなく、ちょうどいい高さだと母も大喜びでした。ただ、船はかなり揺れます！私は酔いやすいので酔い止めを飲んでも最後は気持ち悪くなりました。酔いやすい方は必ず強力な酔い止めを！！望遠カメラを持って「写真ハ？トリマスカ？」と一組ずつ聞いてくれるので、ノーと言えば撮られません。お願いすれば、帰りに買うことができるようでした。着水するかどうかは選択できると書いてありましたが、聞かれることはなく、全員着水だったので、ちょっと残念でした。濡れたまま車に乗るのは気持ち悪かったです。最後は「ヨカッタ方はチップをお願イシマース」と言われますので、全員20ドル渡してました。用意しておいたほうがいいと思います。午前で終わるので午後は丸々空きます。内容もスケジュール的にもよかったです！！

We boarded the boat and set off.
The boat sways quite a bit when the waves are high, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you're prone to getting seasick.

The sky was pleasant, and I enjoyed the scenery.
I was a bit scared and chose the 90-meter option, but I should have gone for the 150 meters.

ボートに乗り込み、出発しました。
波が高いとボートは結構ゆれるので、乗り物酔いしやすい方は酔い止めの薬を飲んでおく事をお勧めします。

上空は気持ちよく、景色も楽しめました。
怖いかなと思い、90メートルの選択をしましたが、150メートルにすればよかったです。

At first, I was anxious because there were no Japanese people around, but the staff explained things in Japanese here and there, which made me feel at ease. It was my first time parasailing, so I was quite nervous, but it was fun. I think those who are prone to motion sickness should take some anti-nausea medication. When I looked down from 120 meters, it was a bit scary, but looking far away, the view was amazing and felt great!

最初日本の方が1組もおられず不安でしたが、スタッフの方が所々日本語で説明して下さり安心しました。
パラセーリング自体は初めてだったので不安ばかりでしたが楽しかったです。酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んだ方がいいと思いました。
120メートルにして、下を見たら少し怖かったですが遠くを見るとすごく眺めが良くて気持ちよかったです！
