The scenery was very beautiful, and I could feel the sea breeze, which made it a lot of fun. From below, it looked quite high and a bit scary at first, but it wasn't scary at all. There were several other participants as well, but while waiting, the boat swayed quite a bit, so I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take some medication before the experience.
景色がとても綺麗で、海風も感じることが出来とてま楽しかったです。高さは下から見ると結構高くて怖そうだなと最初は思いましたが、全然怖くなかったです。他にも参加者が何組かいましたが、待っている間に結構船が揺れるので船酔いしやすいかたには酔い止めを体験前に服用されることをオススメします。

With a small group of up to five people, they provided attentive service. I swam (or should I say floated?!) quite a distance from one end of Hanauma Bay to the other, and I was able to enjoy it without feeling too tired. Although I didn't encounter any sea turtles this time, I've heard they can occasionally be seen. Currently, reservations are required for Hanauma Bay, making it difficult to visit on your own, so this was truly a lifesaver!
5人迄の少人数催行なのできめ細かく対応してもらえます。ハナウマベイの端から端迄、かなりの距離を泳いだ(流れたとも言う?!)のにさほど疲労もなく楽しく過ごせました。今回はウミガメに遭遇できませんでしたが偶に見かけるそうです。今ハナウマベイは予約が必須で個人で行くのが難しくなっていますので、本当に助かりました!

During the cruise, I encountered a pod of dolphins!! They were jumping around just like you would see in an aquarium, and it was amazing! Also, there were plenty of sea turtles swimming around, which was great!!
I was expecting to see tropical fish like Nemo since it was a glass-bottom boat, but I only saw some dark, plain fish, which was a bit disappointing. However, I'm glad I participated!

I participated with my brothers and their daughters, a total of five of us. We received a lecture on how to board and paddle, and together we cooperated to push the canoe into the sea and board it. We worked hard to paddle out to the open water, and when the crew confirmed good waves, we turned direction, increased our pace to ride the waves, and successfully caught some amazing waves. That feeling was the best!
兄弟とその娘の5人で参加しました。乗り込み方、漕ぎ方のレクチャーを受け、皆で協力してまずはカヌーを海に押し入れて乗船。頑張って沖に漕ぎ出し、クルーがいい波を確認したら方向転換、波に乗るためピッチを上げて漕ぎ、見事波に乗ることが出来ました。その感覚は最高でした!

This was the most fun water activity my friends and I did. We did the 9AM excursion so the sun was not fully out and was kind of chilly out there. But you end up warming up in the water. The snorkeling was amazing this was the most fishes that we saw during our whole time in Hawai'i (we've done snorkeling about 3x this trip). We also did the Bumper tube ride. I would only recommend this if you want some adrenaline! Since we did the 9AM, they provided donuts and OJ. I would recommend that you bring your own lunch, snacks, and drinks. There is also a convenient store by the dock if you want to pick up food. If you're wondering, they DO have restrooms on the boat and a changing room as well. Bring a set of comfortable clothes to change into (: This is the 1 activity i would do again!

I participated in a tour at the end of August. We gathered at a hotel in Waikiki around 9 AM and moved by bus. From 11 AM to 1 PM, we enjoyed activities in the ocean. We arrived back at the hotel at 2 PM.
On the boat heading out to sea, we were provided with water and juice. There were also snacks and Spam rice balls, all for free. We went snorkeling and observed the fish in the ocean. The guide pointed out the locations of the fish and coral, and we were able to see beautiful fish. It felt like being in Nemo's world.
Although it was in the morning, the weather was nice, and we were able to stand on the sandbar. I was with my 10-year-old and 6-year-old children, and they were able to stand as well. There were no waves.
You can borrow floaties and stand-up paddleboarding equipment for free. There are also floaties available for children. While we were playing, a sea turtle swam by, and we were able to see it up close.
On the return boat ride, we could enjoy warm coffee, tea, and cocoa for free. There were also crew members who spoke Japanese, which was reassuring. There is a restroom on the boat as well.
My children were very satisfied.
Although the price seemed high, considering the high cost of living in Hawaii, I think the cost performance is good for participating in this tour at this price.

I thought there would be many Japanese participants, but about 80% of the group was non-Japanese. With so many people, I expected the buffet to be more crowded, but everyone maintained order, and we were able to enjoy our meal without chaos. The taste was average, but since it's a buffet, the portions were generous, and the two included drinks made it feel like a good deal.
The show is recommended for those who might get bored with just hula, as well as fans of Elvis and Michael Jackson. While the impersonations of Elvis and Michael Jackson don't go beyond imitation, the stage is luxurious, the sound quality is good, and they perform classic hit songs, so I think you'll enjoy it. The hula performance was impressive from the VIP seats. Please see the photos. You can take pictures freely without flash (video and recording are not allowed).
Here are some points to note: The reception staff can speak Japanese, but once you enter the dining area, it's in English. The meal is outdoors, while the show is indoors with air conditioning, so it's advisable to bring a jacket. The show ends after 9 PM, and there are no trolleys for the return; you'll need to walk, take a taxi, or use The BUS if you're able. For those staying nearby, it shouldn't be a problem.
Overall, it's a comfortable evening event.

。人数が多く、ビュッフェがもっと混雑するかと思いましたが、皆さん秩序を守っていて、混乱なく食事をとることができました。味は、まあ普通ですが、ビュッフェなのでボリューム満点で、ドリンクも2杯ついてくるのでお得感はあります。
ショーは、フラだけだと飽きてしまう人、プレスリー、マイケルジャクソンのファンの人にお勧めです。プレスリーとマイケルジャクソンは物真似の域を出ないですが、舞台が豪華で音響もよく、定番のヒット曲を披露するので、楽しめると思います。フラも、VIP席でしたので迫力がありました。写真をご覧ください。フラッシュなしなら、自由に撮影できます。(ビデオ、録音は不可)
以下、注意点です。受付の人は、日本語大丈夫ですが、食事会場に入った後は英語です。食事は屋外、ショは屋内で冷房が効いていますから、上着持参が望ましいです。ショーの終了は9時過ぎですので、帰りは、トロリーはなく、徒歩、タクシー、使える人はThe BUSになります。ホテルが近い人は問題ありませんが。

Our tour guide, Micki was so knowledgeable and was able to tell us so much about the fish and coral that we could see.

The day we participated, the depth was just enough for adults to stand. Depending on the tide, it can be completely different from the photos, so it's better to check before signing up. It was also a windy day in late September, and the water temperature was low, so the kids got cold and quickly wanted to get out, which was unfortunate. (There were even babies who enjoyed it for over an hour.)
All the staff were very friendly, and it was reassuring that the Japanese-speaking staff provided thorough explanations. It was almost full, and there wasn't a place to sit, but they kindly asked us to move, which was a great help.
If you're going to snorkel, it seems better to have marine shoes. I bumped my foot against the coral reef (which you shouldn't touch) and got injured.
私たちが参加した日は、大人がやっと足がつく深さでした。潮位によっては、写真と全く異なるので、調べてから申し込んだ方が良いです。また9月下旬の風の強い日で、水温も低く子供達は寒がりすぐに出てしまい残念でした。(1時間以上楽しんでいた赤ちゃんもいました)

I participated in the tour that started at 9:30 AM. Since we were told to meet on-site and check in 30 minutes early, I left my hotel in Waikiki at 7 AM with plenty of time, heading towards Haleiwa. The drive from Waikiki to the freeway was a bit congested, but after that, it was smooth sailing. I arrived around 8 AM near the North Shore and stopped by the 7-Eleven in Haleiwa for breakfast. (They sell pasta, hand rolls, and sandwiches similar to those in Japan.) I reached the harbor parking lot by 8:30 AM. After parking in a spot of my choice, I checked in at a small hut marked 'North Shore Adventures.' When I provided my last name, I was informed in English that "there is no restroom on the boat, so please take care of that in the brown building over there," and "wait around the pink hut until it's time." By the way, this tour company owns four boats, which have Japanese names like 'Kaiou' and 'Abunai.' This time, we were on the boat called 'Kanpai,' and fortunately, the captain was a Japanese person from Kumamoto (I believe his name was Reese; I apologize if I'm mistaken), who communicated with us entirely in Japanese. Once everyone was gathered, we set sail even before the scheduled time. We took off our sandals, placed them in a black box, and boarded barefoot, choosing our seats. After that, the staff provided explanations in English, mainly about "rules on the boat," "shark information," and "group division." This time, everyone except us was foreign, and we were divided into two groups of six, totaling 12 people. It took about 15 minutes to reach the site, and we arrived in no time. As many have mentioned, it does sway quite a bit, so motion sickness medication is a must. (It's not too bad while moving, but after the engine stops, the cage is directly affected by the waves.) If you forget, there is a 24-hour drugstore (Longs Drugs) in Waikiki where you can find "motion sickness" medication. After putting on our snorkels, we descended into the cage using a ladder while holding a GoPro. There were quite a few sharks. They passed right in front of us one after another, so take your time to get into position before starting to film. They are a docile type of shark, so they won't attack. After enjoying it for about 20 minutes, we switched with the next group and waited on the boat. There are no changing rooms on the boat, so we headed back in our swimsuits. This time, we returned to port at 11:30 AM, making it a very compact activity of about two hours from departure to return. If you choose an early morning tour, you'll have the entire afternoon free for exploring Haleiwa Town, shopping, or driving along the coastline, making for a meaningful day. Overall, this became the best memory of my trip to Oahu. I highly recommend it. Thank you very much.
朝9時半スタートの回に参加しました。現地集合、30分前にチェックインとのことでしたので、時間に余裕を持ってワイキキのホテルを朝7時にレンタカーで出発、ハレイワへ向かいました。ワイキキからフリーウェイまでは多少混みますが後はスイスイ、8時過ぎにはノースショア辺りへ到着、ハレイワのセブンイレブンに寄り朝食をとりました。(日本のセブンに近いパスタや手巻き、サンドイッチが売られています。)8時半にはハーバーの駐車場へ到着。好きな駐車スペースへ停めた後『North Shore Adventures』と書かれた小さな小屋で受付です。ラストネーム(苗字)を伝えると英語で「船にはトイレが無いからあそこの茶色い建物で済ませておくこと」、「時間までピンクの小屋周辺で待機すること」など伝えられます。ちなみにこちらの催行会社では船を4隻所有しており、『海王』や『危ない』など日本語の名前が付いています。今回は『乾杯』という船でしたが、たまたま運よくキャプテンが熊本出身の日本語の方(おそらくReeseさん、違っていたらごめんなさい。)で終始日本語で対応して頂けました。全員揃い次第、時間前でも出航です。サンダルを脱いで黒い箱に入れ裸足で乗船、好きな席へ座ります。その後スタッフから英語で説明、主に「船でのルール」「サメの説明」「グループ分け」についてです。今回は私たち以外は全員外国の方で全部で12名、6名ずつの2グループに分けられました。出航から現場まで15分ほど、あっという間に到着します。皆さん書いている通りかなり揺れますので酔い止め必須です。(走行時はそうでも無いですがエンジン停止後と、ケージが海面のため波の影響をもろに受ける)。もし忘れた場合、ワイキキには24時間営業のドラッグストア(Longs Drugs)がありますのでそこで「motion sickness」で探せば見つかります。シュノーケル着用後、GoProを持ってケージの中へハシゴで降ります。サメはかなりの数います。次から次へと目の前を通り過ぎるので、焦らずしっかり体勢を整えてから動画撮影開始です。おとなしい種類のサメですのでもちろん襲ってきたりはしません。約20分ほど楽しんだ後次グループと交代、船へ上がって待機です。船には更衣室はありませんので、水着のまま帰路に付きます。今回は帰港時11:30、出航から帰港まで約2時間の大変コンパクトなアクティビティでした。午前早目の回を選べば午後はまるまる空きますのでハレイワタウン散策やお買い物、海岸線をドライブなど有意義な1日を過ごせると思います。総合的に今回のオアフ島旅行で一番の思い出になりました。かなりお勧めだと思います。ありがとうございました。

会合場所で間違いをしてしまいましたが、電話での丁寧な対応のおかげで無事に会うことができました。ランチのロコモコも美味しかったです。もしまたハワイに来る機会があれば、また利用したいと思います。夏恵さん、恵美さん、ありがとうございました。
I made a mistake at the meeting place, but thanks to a polite response over the phone, I was able to meet up safely.
The loco moco for lunch was also delicious.
If I have a chance to come to Hawaii again, I will use it again.
Natsue san 、Emi san thank you.

We were the only Japanese participants, but after the overall explanation in English, they provided individual explanations in clear English, which made it very considerate and easy for us to participate.
参加者の中で日本人は私達だけでしたが、全体で英語で説明した後に個別にわかりやすい英語で説明してもらえたり、とても気にかけてくれて参加しやすかったです。

It is true that you can race through the great outdoors and enjoy the magnificent scenery. I believe you can find satisfaction in the content through other media as well, so here are a few points to note:
- Basically, you will get dirty all over. Helmets and goggles are provided, but since they are not cleaned, just putting them on will make your head and face dirty. The vehicle is also dirty, so as soon as you sit down, your pants will get dirty. Additionally, dust from the vehicles in front will fall all over your body. By the way, in addition to the helmet and goggles, a dust mask labeled "Kualoa" is provided, but that is given as a souvenir after the tour.
- Even with goggles on, dust got into my family's eyes, so they used sunglasses or glasses as substitutes.
- Due to unforeseen circumstances, there may be times when you are left behind by the bus. The original plan was for the bus to depart 15 minutes after the 2-hour tour ended, but in reality, the tour extended to about 2 hours and 15 minutes, and when I went to the restroom afterward, I was left behind by the return bus. When I later asked the ticket booth staff, they said the bus only waited for 5 minutes after the scheduled departure time. This means I only had 5 minutes to wash my hands and face and walk from the tour location to the bus, including restroom time.
大自然の中を駆け抜けるというのは本当で、壮大な景色を楽しむことができた。内容に満足できることは他の媒体でもわかると思うので、注意点をいくつか。
・基本的に体中汚れる。ヘルメットとゴーグルが渡されるが、洗われていないため装着しただけで頭と顔が汚れる。車内も汚いので座ったらすぐにズボンが汚れる。また、前を走る車による砂埃が体中に降りかかる。ちなみにヘルメットとゴーグルの他にクアロアと書いてある防塵用のマスクが渡されるが、それはツアー終了後にお土産として渡された。
・ゴーグルをつけていても砂埃が目に入ったので家族は自分なりにサングラスやメガネで代用していた
・不可抗力によりバスにおいていかれることがある。2時間のツアーが終了して15分後にバスが出発するというのが元々の予定だったが、実際にはツアーが2時間15分くらいまで延びて、その後トイレに行っていたら帰りのバスにおいていかれた。後でチケット売り場の人に質問したら、バスは出発予定時刻の5分後までしか待っていなかったとのこと。手や顔を洗ってツアーの場所からバスまで歩く時間とトイレに行く時間を合わせて5分しかもらえなかったということになる。
