I was worried about not being able to see any dolphins, but I ended up seeing a lot of them. I was so absorbed in dolphin watching that before I knew it, my husband and I had separated while watching. It was also fun dancing on the boat!
イルカに会えなかったら?と不安もありましたが、たくさんのイルカに会えました
イルカ鑑賞に夢中で、気付けば夫婦バラバラになって見てました。笑

It was my first time snorkeling, and I was satisfied! I thought the photos would have been prettier if the weather had been better, but I was glad to see a sea turtle! There weren't any 17cm fins or floaties for children, but it was fine to wrap a stick as a substitute for a float or swim side by side.
初シュノーケルでしたが満足です☆天気がもっと良ければ写真も綺麗だったかなぁと思いましたが、海ガメも見られて良かったです!
子ども用の17cmの足ひれと浮き輪はありませんでしたが、浮き輪がわりの棒を巻きつける、または横並びで泳げば問題なしでした。

I felt安心 knowing that there were Japanese staff on board. The sea was beautiful, and I enjoyed delicious hamburgers and salads that were grilled on the ship. I was surprised when I got stung by a jellyfish, but the staff quickly applied medicine for me. I recommend wearing a wetsuit for those who are concerned.

On the day of the event, it was cloudy, but I felt it was better than rain, so I participated. At the sandbar, the water level was up to my knees, but that was within expectations. The staff took a lot of photos and kept the atmosphere lively on the boat, which made it enjoyable. If there's one thing I would like to see improved, it's that many people were kicking at the surface while snorkeling, which made the water murky. I hope they can provide a stronger reminder at the beginning.

We participated in a sandbar tour for the first time as a family of three. It was the only day of our trip that it rained all day. Despite the unfortunate weather, the staff communicated in Japanese and made us feel at ease. The water level at the sandbar was about waist-deep, but we had a great time playing volleyball and other activities. We also encountered sea turtles and manta rays. The BBQ cheeseburger for lunch was even better than we expected! There were seconds available, but one was filling enough. Drinks like cola and iced tea were free. On the way back, we experienced some engine trouble with the boat, but we were towed back safely by a helper boat. The staff explained the issues thoroughly, so we were able to enjoy the experience without any worries.

The guidance was clear and easy to understand in Japanese, allowing me to enjoy the half-day experience.

This was my second time participating, but unfortunately, the weather was a bit worse compared to my last visit. I would like to come back on a sunny day to show my child the sandbar!

I participated with my mother and daughter. This was the second time for my mother and daughter at the sandbar, and since the water level was up to my mother's chest last time, it seemed scary for them, so we booked a course that matched the low tide.
Thanks to that, the water level was below our knees, and the weather was great, allowing us to have a wonderful time.
We also got to see sea turtles and enjoyed snorkeling around the coral with my daughter.
The tour staff were very friendly and took photos for us. If there's another opportunity, I would definitely like to participate again.

The sandbar was incredibly beautiful, and I was truly moved! My one-year-old daughter and I waited on the boat during snorkeling, but the staff supported my son. The hamburgers on the boat were delicious, and our cheerful guide was the best! It was a very satisfying day!

[About the BBQ Lunch]
I thought the BBQ would be grilled on a net until the day before, but after reading everyone's reviews the night before, I saw comments saying it was just [sliced meat]. I had no expectations at all. Indeed, there were sliced beef and chicken available, and it wasn't a BBQ in the traditional sense, but the taste was delicious! I think I wasn't disappointed because I had low expectations! There were also yakisoba, salad, and fruit available!
[About the Sliders]
I was worried that I wouldn't be able to ride all the sliders with a 3:00 PM pickup, but since each slider was not separated and there was hardly any waiting, I was able to try them all! You can understand from the website that when the slider next to one is open, that slider will close for 30 minutes... and they open alternately! In the morning, there was no waiting at all, and it was smooth, but it started to get a bit crowded in the afternoon, and I had to wait a little (still only about 5 to 10 minutes). If you want to ride twice, it might be better to do so while it's still open! Also, there is a slider called Shaka that drops from almost a 90-degree angle, and if you don't keep your neck strong, it can really hurt your neck. I was fine the first time, but on the second ride, my neck got jostled, and now I feel like I have whiplash...!
[Other Advice]
- The concrete below is hot, so don't leave your flip-flops in the locker (the small locker costs $13, can be opened and closed, and was spacious enough for two people's belongings). It's better to wear them down to the slider. Most sliders have floats or inner tubes placed underneath, and you carry them yourself up to the ride. Everyone was casually taking off their shoes near where the floats were and heading up!
- I was wondering if I could take my smartphone on the slider, but I had it in a waterproof case hanging around my neck, and no one said anything. (I’m not sure if you can take pictures while on the slider...)
My flight was canceled on the way there, and I had booked this tour for the second day, but I couldn't make the 9:00 hotel pickup. I sent an email to Veltra at night, and they responded immediately (I thought I wouldn't get a reply since it was outside of business hours, but they replied late at night and even called me the next morning). They successfully handled the schedule change right before the cancellation/change deadline. I have used Veltra many times for various overseas trips, and it is truly convenient and cost-effective! Thank you very much!!
[BBQランチについて]
BBQは前日まで網で焼いて食べるBBQだと思っていたのですが、前日の夜に皆さんの口コミを読んだら[細切れの肉が置いてあるだけ]
と書かれていて、全く期待してなかったです。
確かに細切れのビーフとチキンが置いてありそれをバイキング形式で取る形でBBQではなかったですが、味は美味しかったですよ(^^)期待してなかったからガッカリしなかったんだと思います!他には焼きそばとサラダ、フルーツが置いてありました!
[スライダーについて]
15:00ピックアップで全部スライダー乗れるかなーと不安でしたが、中は一つ一つのスライダーが離れておらず、また並ぶ事も殆どないので全部制覇出来ました!
HP読んだらわかると思うのですが、スライダーは隣のスライダーが空いている時は隣のスライダーが30分閉まる、、、という形で交互に開く形でした!
午前中は全く並ぶ事なくスムーズでしたが、午後からは少し混み始めて少し並びました(それでも5〜10分くらい)2回乗りたい!と思ったら空いているうちに乗ってた方がいいかもしれません!
また、シャカというほぼ90度の角度から浮き輪に乗って落ちるスライダーがあるのですが、首にしっかり力を入れて置かないと、首がやられます。
私は1回目は平気だったのですが2回目で首が持っていかれ、むちうちのような状態になっています、、、、!
[その他アドバイス]
・下のコンクリートは暑いので、ビーサンはロッカーに預けず(ロッカーは小が13ドル、開け閉め可能、2人分の荷物余裕でした)
スライダーの下まで履いていった方がいいです。
殆どのスライダーの下に、浮き輪とかフロートが置いてあり、それを自分で持って乗り場まで上がります。浮き輪置いてある所の近くにみんな適当に脱いで上まで上がっていました!
・スマホ、持ってスライダー乗れるのかな?と思っていましたが、首からぶら下げる防水のケースに入れていたら特に何も言われませんでした。(スライダー中に撮影していいかまでは分かりません、、、)
行きの飛行機が欠航になり、このツアーは2日目に予約していたのですが、9:00のホテルピックアップには間に合わなくなったため、ベルトラさんに夜メールを送っていたらすぐにメールの返事をくださり(夜営業時間外だったので返事はすぐには来ないだろうと思っていたら、深夜に返事をくださり翌朝電話までして頂きました)
キャンセル・変更期限ギリギリの所で無事に日程の変更手続きしてくださいました。
ベルトラさんはこれまで何度も色々な海外旅行の際に利用させて頂いていますが、本当に便利でお得です(^^)
ありがとうございました!!

We had a great morning cruise with Dolphins and You. The local crew (certified life guards and professional entertainers!) were very friendly and full of energy. They explained everything in both English and Japanese since there were quite a large number of Japanese tourists on our 40 person tour. There was music and dancing on the way to the spinner dolphin site. We sat at the back of the boat and enjoyed the sun and sea air; thank goodness we had lots of sunscreen! I wear glasses and there were prescription masks on the boat so I could see everything clearly.
The crew-led Hawaiian chant and orchid offering when we entered the dolphin site brought us good luck. The crew went in the water with us and pointed out several pods of dolphins swimming right by. I wanted to stay with the dolphins longer, but we had another scheduled stop. At the snorkeling site, a sea turtle swam right under our group and there were lots of fish all around. The inflatable water slide, “surfboard” and kayak added to the fun. For lunch we had cheeseburgers on taro buns with bags of chips — very tasty. The crew sang and danced a couple of hulas on the way back; a perfect ending to a great morning!
We drove from our hotel, arrived at the Waianae Boat Harbor early, and were a little concerned when we didn’t see any signs for Dolphins and You. However, a bus with Dolphins and You on the side pulled into the parking lot right where they said to meet at the specified meeting time. Be sure to take Dramamine if you think you might get motion sickness. Several people on the cruise got sick, even though I didn’t think it was very rough. I took a Dramamine before we left on the Dolphins and You cruise and was fine (I had gotten sick on a previous snorkel trip to Molokini off of Maui). Definitely APPLY SUNSCREEN early and often...the sun is very strong on the water.
Aloha Cathy, and mahalo for your 5-star review! We appreciate you taking the time to share your detailed and thoughtful review of our tour! And we're so glad that you appreciated the extra dose of Aloha that is unique to Dolphins and You :).
We could not agree more with your suggestions of Dramamine and sunscreen use. That's the best way to stay comfortable on the water. We also recommend reef-safe sunscreen (which we offer in our office in Waikiki) to protect both your skin AND Hawaii's fragile coral reefs! Thank you again for your review. Please come again some day!

Great food, great service. The only thing I might add is to provide something to crack open the lobster

We’ve been on snorkeling cruises in the past (some out of Waianae Boat Harbor) but never with this company. We visit Hawaii often (my wife was born and raised in the islands) we view island activities with a critical eye. This was a super dolphin/snorkel trip. The cruise is on a smaller boat, which has the advantage of offering a smaller group of people, a more intimate experience, and a little more adventurous ride - I like all three. Staff on these boats are there to 1. Offer safety 2. Offer service and 3. Offer fun and adventure. The Dolphin’s and You staff were excellent on all counts. I’ve seen the “fun” part on other boats get a little smarmy, but the staff on this boat really did a great job of encouraging people to participate and enjoy themselves without being overly “slick” or pushy. They also had some talented people who shared music I found enjoyable.
I take my own pictures with underwater stills and video. The videographer/photographer on the trip did a super job and was kind enough to show me some great shots while still attending to everyone on board. I wish I could say that about all the snorkeling/watching tours we’ve been on.
Overall I’d say this was a really good trip - for anyone - experienced or novice. Tips: If you have motion sickness, or aren’t sure if you have motion sickness, take dramamine. Do it. Take sunscreen - Use it. If you’re not familiar with photography (above and below water) leave your gear at home. Experience the trip and allow the professional the ship provides offer you some of the best shots you’ll ever see - most likely better images than you can take yourself. Fooling with gear and worrying about taking pictures, will detract from the memories you can make just being in the water and seeing the amazing things the crew will show you.
There are lifetime memories you can take away from a half-day trip like this. It might *seem* pricey to some, but I assure you that it is worth every cent and you’ll be ready for more.
Aloha Bruce! Thank you so much for your sincere 5-Star review.
