The driver didn't speak much Japanese, but he was a very fun person. The atmosphere in the car was enjoyable.
Once on the boat, they take photos while you're parasailing for $30, but you can choose whether to buy them or not. It seems they took more photos than I expected, which turned into wonderful memories. (It seems to vary by person.) But all the photos were lovely.
Motion sickness is unavoidable, so if you're worried about it, it's better to take precautions.
運転手さんは日本語は基本はお話できませんが、とても楽しい方でした。車内は楽しい雰囲気でした。
船に乗るとパラセーリング中も、写真撮ってくれます30$ですが、買う買わないは選択可能。
思っていたより大量に撮ってもらったみたいで楽しい思い出になりました。(人によって違うみたいですね)でもどれも素敵な写真ばかりです。
船酔いは仕方ないので、心配な方は対策した方がいいですね。

The captain and the guy on the boat were very nice, the parasailing was great! I was scared little bit first while, but then it was outstanding! Great view, just like swinging in the sky. If you are easy to get motion sickness, you should take pills thought. There was a poor girl puking.

I stayed at a small hotel, and they came to pick us up properly. The guide was surprised, saying, "It's rare to see Japanese people staying here!" as it seems that Japanese often stay at famous hotels.
We headed to Hanauma Bay in a larger vehicle that could accommodate about eight people. We participated in the afternoon session, and although the parking lot seemed full, thanks to the guide's connections, we were able to enter.
At Hanauma Bay, watching a video before snorkeling is mandatory, and we were guided by our guide to watch the video. After that, we took a shuttle down to the beach.
At the beach, they managed our belongings and valuables by providing security boxes. They also lent us mats and allowed time for changing.
We put on life jackets and got ready for snorkeling.
It seemed to be high tide, and there were waves that made it difficult to move at times, but the guide was always with us, so we could snorkel without getting lost in the sea. We were able to see fish. The guide took us to a spot where we might see turtles, but we ended up feeling seasick from the waves and had to return early. The guide was considerate of our condition, and those who felt okay were taken to other spots with another guide, so I would like to try again!
They also took photos, which made me very satisfied, but it was unfortunate that I got seasick.
However, since they were attentive to our well-being and adjusted to the participants' pace, I highly recommend this tour! I strongly suggest that those who are not confident in their physical condition bring motion sickness medication.
小さなホテルに宿泊していましたが、きちんと迎えに来てくださいました。「日本の方が泊まっているなんて珍しいと思います!」と、日本人は有名ホテルに泊まっていることが多いそうで、驚かれました。
ハナウマ湾までは8人ほど乗れる大きめの車で向かいます。
私たちは午後の部に参加したのですが、駐車場が満車のようでしたが、ガイドさんの顔パスにより私たちは入場することができました。
ハナウマ湾ではシュノーケリング前にビデオ鑑賞が必須となっており、私たちもガイドさんに案内されビデオを鑑賞しました。
そのあとはシャトルで浜のほうに降ります。
浜では荷物や貴重品をセキュリティーボックスに入れてくださるなど、きちんと管理してくれます。
ゴザもかしてくれたり、着替えの時間も設けてくださいました。
救命用具もつけていざシュノーケリング。
満潮時のようで、波がありうまく進むことができないときもありましたが、常にガイドさんがついてくださり、海のなかで迷うことなくシュノーケルすることができました。
魚もみることができました。
亀がいそうなスポットのほうまで案内してくれましたが、私たちは波で酔ってしまい、途中で帰ることになりました。
体調を気遣ってくださり、大丈夫な方たちはもう一人のガイドさんとほかのスポットまで連れていってもらっていたので、またリベンジしたいと思います!
写真も撮ってくれて大満足でしたが、酔ってしまったので残念でした。
ただ、体調を気遣ってくれたり、参加者のペースに合わせてくれるので、とてもおすすめのツアーです!
体調に自信のない方は酔い止めなどを持参することを強くおすすめします。
Thank you for joining the tour with Blue Hawaii Divers. Dan and I are certified instructors for Hanauma Bay, so even if the parking lot is full and you can't get in, we can still accommodate you. Additionally, no matter how long the line is for purchasing entry tickets, our tour guests do not have to wait in line. That’s what sets us apart from other tours. I'm sorry to hear that you experienced seasickness this time. I hope next time you can take some motion sickness medication before leaving the hotel, so you can enjoy Hanauma Bay even more. We look forward to seeing you again. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
ブルーハワイダイバースのツアーにお越し頂き、ありがとうございます。私とダンはハナウマ湾公認のインストラクターですので、駐車場が満車で入れない時でも入れますし、入場チケットの購入にどんなに長い列が出来ていようとも私達のツアーのお客様は並ぶ必要はございません。そこが他のツアーとは違うのですよ。今回は波酔いされてしまった様で残念です。是非次回はホテルを出る前に酔い止めを飲んでいただいて、もっともっとハナウマ湾を楽しんでいただきたいと思っております。またお会いできますことを楽しみに待っております。

It was a bit drizzly during the parasailing, but it was amazing to be able to take photos with the rainbow in the background. Most importantly, when I turned around at the top, I saw a circular rainbow. It was my first experience, so it became a great memory. I was a bit anxious about the explanations being mostly in English, except for the important parts, but I was very grateful for the quick response when my friend got seasick. Thank you. However, I was a little worried when the pickup was about 20 minutes late.
ちょっと小雨が降る中のパラセイリングだったので、タブルの虹をバックに写真を撮ることが出来て最高でした。何より一番上に着いたときに後ろを振り返ると円形の虹を見ることがでしました。初めての経験だったので、良い思い出になりました。説明が大事なこと以外は全部英語の説明で不安になることもありましたが、船酔いした友達に気づいて素早く対応していただいたことにはとても助かりました。ありがとうございます。ただ、集合時間20分位過ぎてからのお迎えでちょっと不安にさせられました。

Three of us participated! ♫ There were about 12 other people from overseas joining as well. We took motion sickness medication beforehand, but the boat was rocking quite a bit while we were stopped at the point where the sharks were. Some people ended up vomiting before they even saw the sharks, so I strongly recommend taking motion sickness medication just in case, even if you don't usually get seasick.
Once we dove in from the enclosure, we encountered a lot of sharks! ♫ It's not often you get to see them up close, so it really gets your adrenaline pumping! The sharks' faces were clearly visible and they looked quite cute. (laughs)
Our turn was last, but we were in the same group as a dandy gentleman from the Middle East who had been vomiting since the beginning. Even while he was in the enclosure with the sharks, he couldn't stop vomiting, but everyone was laughing and having a good time about it. (laughs) Thanks to him, the sharks might have gathered around! (laughs)
The waves were strong even inside the enclosure, and I was clinging to the bars the whole time, but it’s definitely an activity worth trying! Just like with any activity, even Japanese people who can't speak English can become very friendly with participants from other countries. ♫ I would love to participate again when I go to Hawaii!

I'm afraid of heights, but I chose the highest option at 150m with two friends, and it turned out to be really great! As we kept going higher, it was a bit scary, but the view was so beautiful that the fear faded away.
In front of us, there was a group of three overseas ladies who seemed to be having a lot of fun regardless of their age, so I think it's an activity that anyone can enjoy.
When you fly, it feels like it's over in no time, and you want to do it again. Haha! Also, if you're prone to motion sickness, having some anti-nausea medication might give you peace of mind. Even if you get sick, you can throw up in the sea, but after flying, the captain gives you a little wash in the sea before landing. Haha!
Definitely give it a try!
高所恐怖症の私ですが友達と3人で1番高い150mを選択しましたが結果的にとてもよかったです♫
どんどん上がっていき少し怖いですが怖いよりも

I never expected to see Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson in Waikiki, Hawaii (they were impersonators, though). Their singing was so wonderful that I was completely captivated. Among them, the female singer's voice was particularly impressive.
The hula show was powerful, with the female dancers being very graceful and beautiful, while the male dancers were strong and cool. The fire dance added an extra level of excitement.
I was surprised by the whole roasted pig at the buffet dinner before the show, but it was delicious. The other dishes were surprisingly tasty as well, and I was very satisfied.
まさかハワイのワイキキでエルビスプレスリーとマイケルジャクソンが見れるとは思いませんでした。(ソックリさんでしたが)

フラショーも迫力があって、女性ダンサーはとてもしなやかで美しく、男性ダンサーは力強くかっこよかったです。ファイヤーダンスは危険度が更に盛り上げけていました。

We participated in snorkeling for the first time with a child who is not a strong swimmer. Thanks to Fumio's thorough explanations at the beginning, we were able to enjoy swimming. Even in shallow areas, we saw tropical fish! The water clarity was impressive, and even though we didn't see any sea turtles, it was more than enough. Fumio diligently searched for sea turtles until the very last moment... There were so many tropical fish, it felt like an aquarium. Fumio knows the best spots for sea turtles through interactions with locals, so it's definitely better than going on your own. I absolutely want to participate in this optional tour again next time. Lastly, I am very satisfied with the many photos you sent! I appreciate the pleasant cleanup as well.

The water temperature was lower than I imagined, and the waves were quite strong, which took a toll on my stamina. I think it would be tough without a veteran guide leading the way. My child (elementary school student) started shivering from the cold, so we both decided to retire early, but my husband was able to see the turtles. Our child loves the ocean and pools and usually doesn't want to get out, so it must have been really tough for them. It was indeed cold and challenging even for adults. The swimming speed was fast, making it hard to keep up. Other children participated as well, but all of them ended up retiring. I think it's better to schedule activities for children or elderly participants during warmer water temperature periods. However, we were able to see many large fish in the ocean, and the transportation and entry process was smooth with no waiting. Those not on the tour had to stand in a long line to buy tickets. I would like to try again during a time when the water temperature is higher.
想像した以上に水温が低く波が強めで、体力を使いました。やはり、ベテランガイドさんに先導してもらわないと厳しいと思います。
子供(小学生)が寒がり震えだしたので、私と2人で途中リタイアでしたが、主人はカメを見ることが出来ました。うちの子は海、プール大好きで、なかなか上がってこないような子なので、よっぽど辛かったようです。確かに大人でも寒くて大変でした。
泳ぐスピードも早くてついていくのも大変です。
子どもはうちの子以外にも参加していましたが、全員リタイアでした。
お子様や年配の方が参加する場合は水温が高い時期にした方が良いかと思います。
しかし、海の中では大きな魚も沢山見られましたし、
送迎から入場までスムーズで待つことも無かったです。ツアー以外の方はチケットを買うのにかなり長い行列に並んでいました。
水温が高い時期に再チャレンジしたいです。

We participated as a family of three at the request of my son, who is now a high school student. As rumored, there were no other Japanese participants besides us, but that was not a problem. However, the shuttle van took a long time to arrive, and once we got on, it was packed with no space at all for a long drive. I got motion sickness, and that alone made me tired. The zip line itself was very good. It felt great to cut through the wind while enjoying the beautiful scenery. It was a bit expensive at 70,000 yen for the three of us, but my son was very pleased as he took a lot of photos for Instagram, so I suppose it was worth it. Mahalo.

On the way there, the driver provided a tour guide in English. It's not a big deal, but I learned a lot of things I wouldn't have known if I had been traveling by rental car. It was surprisingly good.
The crew consisted of three women and Captain Bob. One of them could speak Japanese, but even if you're worried about your English, it's not a problem. Everyone was friendly and fun.
The sandbar is just a shallow area offshore, so there's nothing particularly special, but you can practice snorkeling or play beach volleyball. I thought about walking to the end, but there were larger stones (pieces of coral) along the way, and it hurt my feet without sandals. It was also too wide to reach the end.
Next was turtle watching. This time, there were few turtles. However, there were a lot of mantas that came very close to the boat.
While snorkeling, there was a large turtle right nearby. After taking a ton of photos, I circled around the coral reef that spans about 1 km. When I returned to the boat to take a break, I spotted a shark. It seemed to be sleeping, so I dove down and got about a meter close to it.
There were many unexpected discoveries, and it was incredibly fun.
行きのバスではドライバーが英語で観光案内してくれる。大した話ではないがレンタカーで移動していたら知りえないことがいろいろ聞けた。意外とよかった。
船員は女性3名+キャプテンBOB。日本語ができる方は1名だが英語が心配な方でも問題ない。皆さん気さくで楽しい。
サンドバーは沖合の浅瀬というだけで特段何もないが、シュノーケルの練習やビーチ(?)バレーができる。端まで歩こうと思ったが、途中から大きめの石(サンゴのかけら)が多くなりサンダルがないと足が痛い。そもそも広すぎて端まで行けなかった。
次にタートルウォッチング。今回は亀は少なかった。しかし、マンタが大量にいて船のすぐ近くまで来てくれた。
シュノーケルでは、大きな亀がすぐ近くにいた。写真を撮りまくった後、周囲1Kmあるサンゴ礁をぐるりと一周。船に戻って休憩しよと思ったらサメを発見。寝ているようだったので素潜りで1mぐらいまで近づいてみた。
想定外の発見がいろいろあってめちゃくちゃ楽しかった。

First, we gathered at the Sheraton bus stop. There is a counter where you check in and receive a wristband. Each activity has a different color wristband. Upon arrival, there is an explanation in Japanese about how to check in for each activity. During the waiting time between activities, you can buy souvenirs, have lunch at a café, or visit the Kualoa Ranch History Museum. The menu includes items like hamburgers (around $10 for a classic burger), loco moco, and garlic shrimp. For horseback riding, you store your belongings in a locker, check in, and then watch an orientation video in Japanese. Local participants received orientation directly from the instructor in English. It seems that horses have their own personalities, as some people encountered horses that strayed off the course. However, since the horses are well-trained, we were able to enjoy horseback riding while taking in the natural surroundings and experiencing authentic riding. The schedule indicated a departure from Kualoa Ranch around 2:00 PM, but we were able to leave at 1:00 PM, which minimized our waiting time and allowed us to make effective use of the following hours. The one-hour horseback ride was a simple course, but it was great to fully enjoy the great outdoors and experience horseback riding.
まず、シェラトンのバス乗り場に集合しました。カウンターがあるのでそこでチェックインんして、リストバンドをもらいます。コースごとに色がちがいます。到着すると各アクティビティのチェックイン方法の説明が日本語であります。アクティビティの間の待ち時間にはお土産を買ったり、カフェでランチをとったり、クアロアランチヒストリーミュージアムをみたりできます。ハンバーガー(クラシックバーガー10ドルくらい)やロコモコ、ガーリックシュリンプなどのメニューがあります。乗馬は荷物をロッカーに預けて、チェックインをした後、日本語のビデオでオリエンテーションがあります。現地の人は英語でインストラクターから直接オリエンテーションを受けていました。馬にも性格があるようでコースからそれてしまう馬にあたっている人もいました。しかしながら、調教がしっかりとされているので、自然を楽しみながら乗馬する余裕がありながら、本格的な乗馬を体験できました。スケジュールでは14:00-15:00ごろクアロアランチ発となっていましたが、13:00には、クアロアランチを出発できたので、待ち時間も少なく、その後の時間も有効に活用することができました。
1時間の乗馬でシンプルなコースですが、大自然を満喫して、乗馬も体験できたので、すごく良かったです。

It was a 2-hour horseback riding experience. There was someone who could speak Japanese to assist us, which was reassuring and very appreciated. Since there is one guide for each group, we were a group of six, but it might be more enjoyable with a smaller group. The 2-hour course felt quite long. I think one hour would be just right for a first-time rider. I may have been a bit greedy (laughs). The horses were well-trained and sometimes caused a bit of trouble, but they were smart. Kualoa Ranch offers various activities, so I think it's great to combine them for more fun.
乗馬体験2時間コースでした。日本語のできるお手伝いしてくれる方がいました。安心しましたし、大変ありがたかったです。グループ毎にガイドさんが一名なので、私達は6名のグループでしたが、もう少し少ない方が楽かもしれません。2時間コース、けっこう長かったです。初めての乗馬なら1時間でちょうどいいような気がしました。欲張り過ぎました(笑)馬はよく躾けられており、時々困らせてくれましたが、お利口さんです。クアロア牧場は様々なアクティビティがあるので、組み合わせて楽しむのもいいと思います。

I was torn between a large ship, but since I had a toddler with me, I decided to join this optional tour where toddlers are free at the buffet. A welcome drink is included, and you can enjoy unlimited food while sipping on that. With live music, hula dancers performed, and everyone on board danced and had a great time. The waitresses were also lively and good at dancing. There were many non-Japanese guests, and we celebrated together with people from various countries, including those celebrating anniversaries and birthdays. The sunset started to become visible around 6:30, and I was able to capture beautiful photos.
大きい船と迷ったのですが幼児もいたのでバイキングで幼児は無料となっているこのオプショナルツアーに参加しました。ウエルカムドリンクは1杯付いていて、そちらを飲みながら好きな食事をとり放題。生演奏の中フラを踊ってくれて乗船されたみんなで踊り盛り上がりました。ウエイトレスものりのりで、踊りが上手でした。日本人以外が多く色々な国の方と一緒に盛り上がり結婚記念日と誕生日の方もいてみんなでお祝い。夕陽が6時半位から見え始め綺麗に写真におさめることができました。

The sandbar's low tide timing was perfect... but the weather was overcast.
I had a 20-minute snorkeling session and got to see a lot of turtles.
Above, there was a large school of saury, and below, I spotted an eel!
It was a good decision to bring marine boots instead of going barefoot on the sandbar.
If I had enough space in my bag, I might have brought short fins for snorkeling.
I hope the weather is fantastic next time!
サンドバー 干潮時間ばっちり・・・ただ鉛色のお空の天気が・・
20分のシュノーケリングでしたが、たくさんのカメさんにお会いできました。
上にはサヨリの大群が観られましたし、下にはウツボ発見!
サンドバーには裸足でなくマリンブーツ持参で正解。
シュノーケルは荷物に余裕があれば短いフィンでも持ってくればよかったかなぁ。
次回は天気が最高です・よ・う・に。
Aloha! I'm really glad to hear that you enjoyed snorkeling. It sounds like you even encountered an eel!
By the way, I sincerely apologize, but we do not allow the use of fins. This is to prevent any accidental kicking of other guests while being mesmerized by the beautiful sea. Thank you for your understanding regarding safety. I hope you can enjoy your next visit under a wonderful blue sky. We look forward to seeing you again!
アロハ!シュノーケルとっても楽しんで頂けたようで本当に良かったです。ウツボにも遭遇したんですねー。
ちなみに大変申し訳ないのですがフィンの使用はお断りしているんですよ。美しい海にみとれてしまい、誤って他のお客様をフィンで蹴ってしまう可能性がある為です。安全の為にご理解下さいね。次回はう〜んと素敵な青空のもとで楽しんで頂けますように。お待ちしてます。

We were picked up by a large bus. We picked up many people from hotels, and 98% of the group was Japanese. Once everyone was gathered, a monitor and announcements explained the process in Japanese.
After arriving at Wet 'n' Wild, we confirmed the bus number and meeting point, handed over our vouchers at the entrance, and then went through a bag check to enter. There is a shop where you can buy water, juice, and waterproof cases if needed (the waterproof case was about $25).
As we moved further in, there was a roofed area with lockers on the left where you can store your belongings. In front of the row of lockers, there is a monitor screen where you can rent a locker. You select the size of the locker, set a passcode, and after payment, you are told, "Your locker number is X." You can use that locker freely. Credit card payments are accepted, and the operation can be done in Japanese. Nearby, there is a shop (with hamburger sets), and in front of it, there are chairs and tables available for use. We left our swimsuits, towels, and sandals there and stored our valuables in the locker. I brought a leisure sheet just in case to reserve a spot, but it wasn't necessary.
You walk to each attraction, so it's easier to wear sandals the whole time. Even though it was spring break, the ground got quite hot. At the entrance of many attractions, you had to take off your sandals and climb stairs to start, which could have been tough in the middle of summer.
Each attraction has different inner tubes. You typically receive the inner tube from someone who has just finished at the goal point and carry it back to the starting point. There were many thrilling rides, which were fantastic. For some reason, not all attractions were open at once; they were opened alternately. If it’s like this during summer vacation, it might be a bit disappointing... There’s a possibility that attractions you plan to do later might close after a while, so be cautious.
Since it was still a season with fewer people, we didn’t have to wait long for lunch, and we could buy and eat quickly before heading to the next attraction. However, I wonder how it will be in the peak summer season? I was a bit worried about that. Despite the lines, the staff seemed quite relaxed... (laughs)
We left at 2:30 PM to make it back by 3 PM, but it seemed like many tours followed the same pattern, resulting in a long line. I feel there are too few changing rooms. The restrooms are in the same area, so some people were changing in the restroom.
Also, I thought it would be nice if we could play until closing time even if we weren't leaving at 3:15 PM. However, renting a car in an unfamiliar area is nerve-wracking, and if you plan to go during a busy season, it might be a good idea to eat something just before arriving and skip lunch to enjoy the attractions.
The thrilling attractions that are hard to experience in Japan were incredibly fun! 😊
大型バスでのお迎えでした。たくさんのホテルで拾って98%日本人で出発でした。
全員そろった時点で、モニターとアナウンスが日本語で流れを説明してくれます。
ウェット・アンド・ワイルドに着いた後、バスの番号と集合場所を確認して、入口でバウチャーを渡して、その後荷物チェックされて入場でした。
売店があるので、そこで必要な方はお水やジュース、防水ケースなどを買うことができます。(防水ケースは25ドルくらいでした)
更に進むと左手にロッカーの屋根があり、そこで荷物を預けられます。ロッカーの並んでいる棚の手前にモニター画面があり、そこでロッカーの契約をします。ロッカーの大きさを選び、暗証番号を決めて支払いをした後に、「あなたのロッカーは何番です。」と指定されますので、その番号のロッカーを使用します。出し入れ自由。クレジットカード支払いOKです。日本語で操作できます。近くに売店(ハンバーガーとかのセット)があり、その前に自由に使える椅子とテーブルがありました。水着やタオル、サンダルはそこに置き、貴重品をロッカーに入れて動きました。レジャーシートを念のために場所取り用に持って行ったのですが、不要でした。
各アトラクションまで、歩くのでサンダルはずっと履いていた方が楽です。春休みだったのに、結構足元が暑くなってました。アトラクションの入口でサンダルを脱いで、階段を上ってスタートするパターンが多かったのですが、真夏だったら、大変だったかも・・・。
各アトラクションで浮き輪が違います。やりたいアトラクションのゴール地点で降りてきた人の浮き輪をもらって、スタート地点まで持って上がるパターンが多かったと思います。
絶叫ものが多くて最高でした。なぜか、全部アトラクションを開放せず、交代で開放してました。夏休みもこんな感じだったら、ちょっと残念です・・・。後でやろうと思ったアトラクションが、しばらく経ったら閉鎖になることもあり得ますので、注意です。
まだ人が多くないシーズンだったので、ランチもそこまで並ばず、すぐに買って食べて、次のアトラクションへ~~とスムーズに行けましたが、真夏とかどうなるのかなぁ?とちょっと心配になりました。
行列の割には、どこのスタッフものんびりですし・・・(笑)
帰りは2時半に上がり、3時の集合に間に合うように・・・と更衣室に向かったのですが、同じパターンのツアーが多かったようで、行列でした。
更衣室の数が少なすぎる気がします。トイレも同じ場所にあるので、トイレで着替えている人もいました。
また、3時15分出発でなくても、閉園時間まで遊ばせてもらえても良いのでは?と思いました。
かといって、慣れないところをレンタカーして行くのもドキドキするし、もし激こみシーズンに行かれるのであれば、到着ギリギリに何か食べて、ランチなしで遊ぶのも手かもしれません。
日本には、なかなか体験することのできない絶叫アトラクション、最高に楽しかったです(^^♪

We had a great time as a family of five. Our youngest son, who is five years old, also enjoyed it. The captain and the staff were kind, and the photos turned out beautifully.
家族5人で楽しみました。
1番若い5才の息子も楽しめました。

It was cloudy, windy, and cold, but since I rented a wetsuit, the water didn't feel too cold. I discovered dolphins in relatively shallow water! The water's clarity was amazing, and I was surrounded by a pod of dolphins in all directions, which was breathtaking! Of course, I also got to see sea turtles. I regret not bringing my camera. I want to master snorkeling perfectly and participate again!
曇りで風も強く寒かったんですがスウェットスーツをレンタルしたので水の中はそんなに冷たく感じませんでした。わりと浅いところでイルカを発見!水の透明度も凄く良くて360度イルカの群れに囲まれ感動しました!もちろん海ガメにも会えました★カメラを持って入らなかったことに後悔。シュノーケルを完璧にマスターしてもう一度参加したいです!
Aloha, Yonekusu-san,
Thank you for participating in the prestigious Dolphin University.
It seems the weather was nice, and the dolphin instructors were very friendly. Please do come back and join our tours when you visit Hawaii again!
