A little while ago, I thought it would be great to see whales, so I signed up for a tour.
On the day of the tour, the weather was nice and perfect for cruising, but the sunlight was so strong that it almost blinded me, haha.
As for the whales, I encountered them about five times, just barely seeing their heads in the distance. I really wanted to see them jump, but I guess that's just a matter of luck.
少し前ですが、せっかくなのでクジラを見てみたい!と思い申し込みました。
当日は天気もよく、クルージング日和でしたが、
日差しが強すぎて目が潰れそうでした笑
肝心のクジラは、遠くに頭が気持ち見える程度に、5回くらい遭遇。
ほんとはジャンプが見たかったですが、こればかりは運なのでしょうがないですね。

I was able to see wild dolphins swimming in a pod for the first time. I also got to see sea turtles up close in the water... it was moving. The hamburger for lunch was delicious too!
The group I joined consisted entirely of Japanese customers. Perhaps because of that, a Japanese female crew member was there from the pickup, which made me feel at ease. I participated at the end of June, and since it was quite windy, I followed the advice of the Japanese female crew member and borrowed a wetsuit over my rash guard. As a result, the water temperature was comfortable, and I didn't feel too cold while on the boat.
By the way, it might be good to have a chamois towel (which you can use to wipe off most of the moisture and can be reused if you wring it out towards the sea) and a dry beach towel (to use as much as possible without getting wet, draping it over your back) with you. The air conditioning on the return bus is strong too...
初めて野生のイルカが群れをなして泳ぐところを見ることができました。ウミガメも海の中で、至近距離で見ることができ・・・感動。
ランチのハンバーガーも美味しかったです!
私が参加したグループは日本人のお客さんばかりでした。それもあってか?日本人女性のクルーがピックアップの時点からいてくださっていて、安心でした。
参加したのは6月末ですが、風が強かったこともあり、日本人女性クルーのアドバイスに従ってラッシュガードの上からさらにウェットスーツを借りて着ました。結果、海の水温もそれで心地よく、船上に上がっている時もあまり寒くありませんでした。
ちなみに、セームタオル一本(これで主な水分を拭き取る。海に向かって絞れればまた使えるので便利)と、乾いたビーチタオル(なるべく最後まで濡らさず背中にかけたりして使う)があると良いかもしれません。
帰りのバスも、冷房が強いですので・・・。

Overall, we really enjoyed the Luau. The arts and crafts, demonstrations, food, and show were all excellent. Cons were that there were a lot of long lines, seating was crammed up in tiny plastic chairs, and you had to get your own beverage in tiny cups with the choice of water, tea, or coffee which ran out.

I tried snorkeling for the first time at a sandbar known as the "Angel Sea." I'm not a great swimmer, and I felt nervous when the staff said, "Just think of it as training!" But I put on the snorkel and set off. The corals and fish I saw for the first time were so beautiful... and just as I was getting used to it, it was over. I had a bit of anxiety, but wearing a life jacket helped me float, and the staff was watching over us, so I'm glad I participated.

私はあまり泳げないし、スタッフの 訓練だと思ってください!の声に緊張してシュノーケルをつけていざ出発

One of the staff members was not Japanese, but they spoke Japanese very fluently and were friendly, which made me feel at ease. I was able to see both dolphins and sea turtles, but I couldn't get close enough to interact with the dolphins; I only saw a few of them from a distance, which was a bit disappointing (this might be due to the nature of the experience and timing). However, overall, I had a great time, enjoying lunch on the boat and snorkeling to see the sea turtles.
スタッフのうち一人は日本人ではなかったですが日本語がとても流暢で感じもよく安心できました。
イルカもウミガメも見れましたが、
イルカと触れ合えるほど近くでは見れず、遠くに数匹程度ずつ見えたという感じだったので(これは自然相手でタイミングなのかもしれませんが)少し残念でした。

At the sandbar, you can practice snorkeling and play volleyball. The sandbar is shallow and there are hardly any fish, so we went to a deeper part of the sea with coral reefs to snorkel. During the move, hamburgers were served. They were delicious. It might be a bit different from the typical barbecue image. I was satisfied because I got to swim with sea turtles while snorkeling.
サンドバーで、シュノーケリングの練習や、バレーボールなどをして遊べます。サンドバーは遠浅で魚はほとんどいないので、途中、サンゴ礁のある海の深い所へ行って、シュノーケリングします。移動中、ハンバーガーが振舞われます。美味しかったです。バーベキューのイメージとはちょっと違うかも?シュノーケリングでウミガメと泳げたので満足です。

I think there are other tours like the Angel's Sea and Heaven's Sea tour, but this one departs in the morning, allows you to have lunch, and you can also go snorkeling at different locations, so I believe it's a very satisfying tour! It was great when the weather was clear, but it started to get worse along the way and became cold, so I think it's a good idea to bring a towel and a change of clothes. Sunscreen is a must!
天使の海、天国の海ツアーは他にもあるとは思うのですが、朝出発で、お昼も食べられて、場所を移してシュノーケリングもできるので、色々満足できるツアーだと思います!
晴れている時は良かったんですが、途中天候が悪化してきて、寒くなってきたので、タオルや着替えを持って行くと良いと思います。日焼け止めは必須です!

I am so glad we decided to take this hike through Veltra tours, we were provided with walking sticks (which you will definitely need), water and insect repellent. I am a 60 years young female with lower back arthritis, my girlfriend is 72 years young and we both survived and enjoyed it.. The scenery along the hike is beautiful. You should not wear your very nice gym shoes due to some mud and rocks along the way. Getting to the top (end of hike) seems to never come quick enough, but by the end of the hike when you see how beautiful the waterfall is, it becomes well worth it.

As rumored, the ship had large glass windows with a great view and was quite comfortable with little motion. Although I couldn't see the dream-like shot of the whale jumping out of the water on the cover of the brochure, I was still fairly satisfied.

We definitely enjoyed our two hours of sailing on the beautiful Makani Catamaran. It’s the best escape from the sweltering midday heat. All aboard! The enthusiastic riders strolled towards the stretched tarp fronting the 60 foot catamaran, as others filled the inner cabin, or sat on the open air benches. Not to worry, all views satisfied a person’s thirst for adventure. After a brief introduction of safety, expectations and friendly crew introductions the big white $2million dollar catamaran slowly glided out of Kewalo Basin towards the majestic deep blue Pacific Ocean, passing other harbored yachts, catamarans and various tourist boats. At the mouth of the basin local fishermen on the shores cast their lines, hoping for a fresh catch for dinner. Beyond the ocean horizon a large cargo boat cruised along at a seemingly slow pace, and by the time the catamaran set at 1/4 mile out in the ocean it had traveled parallel to Diamond Head.
We were entertained, watching the skillful rigging of the main sail and sailing effortlessly along the fringes of the island. Excitement stirred when two large sea turtle surfaced on the dark blue waters, appeasing our anticipation for marine life. Feeling the ocean air against our face, listening to the rippling sounds of ocean waves gently splashing against the hulls, watching sailboats skimming across the blue horizon, parasail riders bobbing in the air, and surfer zealots zigzagging across 4-6 foot waves on Point Panics - What more could we ask for?

It was very beautiful, and I was surprised when it suddenly appeared in the middle of the ocean. The turtles were also searching hard, and I was able to see a few. However, the snorkeling was a bit disappointing because the water clarity wasn't very good. I often dive in Okinawa, and I feel that the clarity there is significantly better. It might depend on the location, though.
とてもきれいでした、海の真ん中に突然現れて驚きました、亀も一生懸命探してくれて何匹か見られました、ただ、シュノーケルは海の透明度があまりよくなく少し残念でした、沖縄でよくダイビングするのですが、透明度は沖縄の方が数段いいなと感じました、場所にもよるのかもしれませんが。
