This tour is more of a picnic on a boat off the coast of Oahu rather than a dolphin-watching tour, so in that sense, it offers entertainment and could be enjoyable for those who are not used to being on the water. If you go in with the mindset that seeing dolphins would be a lucky bonus, you won't be disappointed. It was completely different from the dolphin tours on the Big Island. The staff followed the company's concept of providing entertainment, but at times their individuality came through, which I found a bit immature.
イルカを見るツアーというよりはオアフ島沖を船でピクニックするツアーで、そういう意味ではエンターテイメントもあり海に慣れていない人にとっては楽しいのではないでしょうか。
イルカは見れたらラッキーくらいのつもりでないとがっかりします。
ハワイ島のイルカツアーとは全く別物でした。
スタッフは楽しませようという会社のコンセプトにのっとってそれなりに業務されていましたが所々に個が出ていて幼稚だなぁと思いました。

There is a bag check at the entrance. All drinks, including plastic bottles and snacks, are confiscated at the entrance. It seems like they want to make you buy food and drinks inside the facility, as the bag check is very thorough.
There are large and small coin lockers, but even the large ones were completely full with just two people's belongings (change of clothes, towels, etc.).
Regarding the pool, the lazy river and several attractions were not operational, which was a bit disappointing. However, we still had a lot of fun with the attractions that were running.
The BBQ lunch was extremely disappointing, as many others have mentioned. I went in without high expectations after reading reviews, but it was still disappointing. The all-you-can-drink soft drinks only included juice, with no tea or other options. Additionally, drinks were only available at the shop located in the middle of the facility.
If I have the chance to go again, I think I would only purchase the admission ticket.
入り口で持ち物チェックがあります。
ペットボトル等のドリンク、お菓子などは全て入り口で没収。施設内で飲み物や食べ物を買わせるという魂胆でしょうか、持ち物チェックはとても徹底しています。
コインロッカーは、大と小がありましたが、大でも2人分の荷物(着替え、タオル等)だけでいっぱいいっぱいでした。
プールに関しては、流れるプール、アトラクションも何種類か動いておらずちょっとガッカリ。
でも、動いているアトラクションだけでも十分楽しめました。
ランチのBBQは、皆さんが載せている通りガッカリ度がハンパないです。
口コミを見ていたので、そこまでの期待はせずに行きましたが、それでもガッカリしました。
ソフトドリンク飲み放題もお茶などはなく、ジュースのみ。そして飲み物は、施設真ん中あたりにある売店にしか置いていません。
もし今度行く機会があったら、100%入場券のみで行くと思います。

I was really excited to see several sea turtles during the sea turtle watching until we reached the sandbar, but the sandbar was deeper than I expected, so I couldn't sit down to take photos. (I had to give up on sitting my child down with the beautiful scenery in the background...) I think it's better to check the tide schedule in advance. However, both the sea and the sandbar were very beautiful, and I was satisfied!! Please be careful after coming out of the water, as it can get cold.
砂洲に着くまでの海亀ウォッチでは何匹も見れて中々興奮しましたが、砂洲が思っていたよりも深く座って写真撮影はできませんでした。(子供を座らして絶景をバックに…は断念しました)
事前に潮の満ち引きを調べて行った方がいいと思います。
でも海も砂洲もとても綺麗で満足しました!!

The weather was a bit cloudy, but the sandbar was still very beautiful. It was fun to see several sea turtles. It was disappointing that I could hardly see any fish while snorkeling, possibly because it was after the hurricane.

I stayed at Aulani Resort in Ko Olina and booked Paradise Cove for my last day. It takes about a 10-minute walk from Aulani to get there. When I arrived, there were many tour buses, and I think there were over 50 guests. Upon entry, they placed a lei around my neck and offered a welcome drink. The venue is very spacious, with a private beach, and before the show starts, there are many events happening around the venue, such as singing, body painting, making hair accessories, and boating. The sunset was incredibly beautiful, and as the sun set, dinner was prepared. Then the show began, featuring traditional Hawaiian performances like hula dancing, singing, and a fire show. I was seated on the side, but I could see everything well. Everything was in English, but the host spoke clearly, making it easy to understand, and there were many jokes that made it enjoyable. My mother, who came with me, was also very satisfied.
コオリナのアウラニリゾートに滞在しており、最終日にパラダイスコーブを予約しました。
アウラニからは徒歩10分程度で到着します。
到着すると観光バスも沢山来ていて50人以上はお客さんがいたかと思います。
入場するとレイをかけてくれウェルカムドリンク。
会場はとっても広く、プライベートビーチもありショー開演までも会場のあちらこちらで歌やボディペイント、髪飾り作りやボートなどイベントが沢山催されています。
サンセットもとっても美しく、日が沈むといよいよお食事が用意されます。
そしてショーが開演。フラダンスや歌、ファイヤーショーなどハワイの伝統芸が披露されます。
私はサイド席でしたが充分見ることができました。
全て英語ですが、司会の方も滑舌も良く、理解しやすくまた冗談も沢山あり面白かったです。

Above all, the sea was incredibly beautiful. Luckily, I was able to see couple of sea turtles and manta rays, which was amazing! If I could wish for something, since I went with children, I was walking behind everyone in the snorkeling preparation, and I got pushed back by someone who started snorkeling a bit earlier, so I didn't have enough time to enjoy snorkeling slowly. I would have liked to cut down a bit more time relaxing at the sandbar and had a few more minutes to snorkel. The time was too short, and my child was only able to practice floating. The Japanese guide, the boat captain, and all the staff were very kind, and I was able to enjoy the tour!
何より海がとってもきれいでした。運良くカップルのウミガメやマンタも見ることができ最高でした!欲をいえば、子連れで行ったのでシュノーケリングの準備にてまどりツアーのみんなの後ろを歩いていたからか、一足先にシュノーケリングを始めた人に押し戻されて、ゆっくりシュノーケリングをする時間がなかったです。

Greg was such a great guide, he knew a lot about the stars and different myths relating to them. He pointed out constellations and heavenly bodies throughout the night and told us about how stars played a role in Hawaiian, Asian, and European societies. You can see so many stars out there compared to the city, and the high-tech telescope got us some amazingly close views of Saturn and a nebula. This is an awe-inspiring experience!

Every year when I go to Hawaii, I always visit Wet 'n' Wild. This year, I felt that the Shaka ride has become a single-person ride, which took away some of the thrill. Also, there were fewer boats, and the lines were long, making it impossible to ride some attractions. I would like to see improvements in those areas.
毎年ハワイに行くと必ずウエット、アンド、ワイルドに行きます。
今年はシャカが一人乗りになって、少しスリルが無くなったように思います。

I thought it would be mostly for families with children, but there were quite a few intense activities that two adults could fully enjoy. The food is a bit pricey, but buying drinks at the concession stand can save you some money. You can also bring unopened water. Everything else is really collected (drinks from Starbucks and snacks were actually taken at the entrance). It was great that we could freely access the lockers. When I got off the bus at the wrong stop, they kindly took me back near the hotel afterward, which was a lifesaver.
お子さん連ればかりかと思っていましたが
アクティビティ自体も割と激しめのものもあって、大人2人で全力で楽しめました。
フードは少し高めですが、売店でドリンクを買えば少しはお得になります。未開封のお水持参も可能です。それ以外は本当に回収されます(スタバのドリンクやおやつなどは入園時に本当に回収されていました)。ロッカーの出し入れが自由にできるのが良かったです。
バスを降りる場所を間違えた際には、あとでホテル近くまで送ってくださって、救われました。

The sea of Lanikai, also known as the "Heavenly Sea," was incredibly beautiful. The emerald green areas turn into sandbars during low tide, revealing sandy beaches if the timing is right. If you want to see the beach, you need to check the low tide schedule and join a tour accordingly.
After playing at the sandbar, I had a hamburger on the boat. They grilled it right there, and it was very delicious! ✨
During snorkeling, we were given bread to feed the fish, and many colorful fish gathered around, which was a lot of fun! ♪
The tour guides were also great at keeping the energy up, making it an extremely enjoyable day!!!
天国の海とも称されるラニカイの海が最高に綺麗でしたエメラルドグリーンの部分がサンドバーで浅瀬になっており、干潮のタイミングが良ければ砂浜が出るようです。もし砂浜の状態を見たいのであれば干潮の時間を調べてそれに合わせてツアーに参加する必要があります。
サンドバーで遊んだ後は、船の上でハンバーガーを食べました。その場で焼いてくれていて、とても美味しかったです✨
シュノーケリングでは餌(食パン)をもらって魚にあげてみると、鮮やかな魚たちがたくさん集まってきて楽しかったです♪

This time, I participated with my daughter. Unfortunately, the sandbar was submerged due to high tide, so there was no beach, but we participated in beach volleyball and had a lot of fun.
The sea turtle watching was amazing; we saw many turtles!
I thought there would be more fish while snorkeling, but I didn't see that many, so that was a bit disappointing. It was probably because the spot I was looking at wasn't very good.
The lunch was delicious as well.
Next time, I would love to join again to see the sandbar during low tide. I look forward to it. Thank you for this time!
今回、娘と2人で参加させて頂きました。サンドバーは満潮にあたり残念ながら砂浜はなく、でも、その中でのビーチバレーに参加し、とても楽しかったです。
ウミガメウォッチングは沢山の亀が見られて最高)^o^(
シュノーケルはもっとお魚が沢山いるかと思ったのですがそれほど見られなくて残念、きっと私が見ていた場所が良くなかったのでしょうね。

This is my second time on this tour. The staff was the same as last time. Their way of getting everyone excited is the best. Depending on the season, the sandbar was about chest height this time, which was a bit disappointing. When it started to rain, it lasted longer than usual, and the water clarity was lower, but I was able to see several turtles. The hamburger for lunch had a delicious patty. Playing beach volleyball with everyone was incredibly fun. My daughter was happy to take pictures of the many fish around the coral with her beach camera. I rate it one point lower because of the weather. I would like to participate again.
今回このツアーは2回目です。スタッフも前回と同じ顔ぶれでした。
盛り上げ方も最高です。時期にもよるのでしょうが、今回はサンドバーが胸の下くらいまでの高さで、ちょっと残念
雨も降り始めるといつもより長く、海の透明度が低かったけど、亀は何匹も確認できました。ランチのハンバーガーはパテが美味しいです。みんなで遊ぶビーチバレーも最高に楽しかったです。娘はビーチ用のカメラで、サンゴの周りにいるたくさんの魚たちを撮れたと喜んでました。評価は天気のことでマイナス1

I used this for my honeymoon trip.
The area was smaller than I expected, and there were fewer attractions.
You can play from around 11 AM to 3 PM, but we finished playing by around 2 PM (maybe because there were hardly any wait times).
There are few free beach chairs available, so I recommend securing one early in the morning.
Also, it was windy and cold. I think it's better to have long sleeves. Don't forget a towel, either.
If asked whether I would use it again, I would say no, but I think it's good for families with children as they would enjoy it.
新婚旅行で利用しました。
思ったより敷地面積が小さく、アトラクションが少なかったです。
11時くらいから15時まで遊べますが14時くらいにはだいたい遊び終わりました(待ち時間がほとんどなかったからかも知れませんが)。
無料で使えるビーチチェアが少ないので朝一で確保されることをオススメします。
あと、風が強く寒かったです。長袖があった方がいいと思います。あとタオルも忘れずに。
もう一度使うかと言われたら使いませんが、お子さん連れはお子さんが楽しめると思うのでよいと思います。

I was looking forward to the two hours before the show, as the website mentioned activities like javelin throwing and canoeing that adults could enjoy, but I found that I couldn't participate at all; it felt more like a level for children, so I wasn't motivated to join in.
For dining, we were guided from the higher seats and took turns getting our food. The taste was average. They advertised unlimited soft drinks, but it was only coffee and tea, with everything else being paid. The show was impressive and enjoyable. There were vouchers included that could be used within the venue, but when I tried to use them, the locations were limited, so I reluctantly bought a wallet, which broke immediately.
ショーが始まるまでの2時間位、やり投げや、カヌーや、いろいろ大人も遊べるような感じでホームページにあったので、楽しみにしてましたが、何にもできなかったというより、子供らが楽しむレベルで、参加する気になれなかった。
食事は、高い席の方から案内され、順番にとりにいきます。味は普通です。ソフトドリンク飲み放題とありましたが、コーヒーと紅茶だけで、あとは、有料です。ショーは、迫力があり、楽しめました。場所内で、使える金券が含まれていたので、使おうと思ったら、使える場所が限定されていて、仕方なく財布を買いましたがすぐ壊れました。

The pickup car didn't arrive even after 15 minutes, and I couldn't get through on the phone. It finally came after 25 minutes, which made me quite anxious. The roller coasters all have long lines, and in the meantime, I got sunburned. There are two lines for the BBQ lunch; one is for JTB exclusive, so everyone else lines up in the other one. They have yakisoba and barley tea for Japanese guests, but overall, the food isn't that delicious. It's just enough to fill your stomach. The return bus took a long time to arrive, and a local staff member helped us out. I probably won't go again.

If I had to mention one thing, it would be that there were a lot of participants, and the seating on the boat was very cramped... During lunchtime, even though we received our hamburgers, there was nowhere to sit and eat, which was a bit of a hassle...
If it weren't for the cramped conditions on the boat, I think it would have been the best tour ever!☆

I went at the end of August with my wife and our three children (ages 7, 10, and 13).
The pool has a wave pool, a shallow play pool for toddlers, and about five different slides. You can also use boogie boards. My kids seemed to really enjoy the wave pool and the slides.
With this plan, one child can enter for free, but even so, 30,000 yen is generally not reasonable. Considering the value, it's expensive. The facilities themselves are not very new, and the scale is smaller than expected.
The slides are quite fun even for an adult like me. I particularly recommend the Tornado. However, to use the slides, you have to walk barefoot up concrete stairs, which can be a bit hot on your feet (you walk up to a slightly elevated area by yourself).
The shuttle bus arrived a little after 10:30, and while wandering around the somewhat confusing park, we put our belongings in a paid locker and left our bags and towels on a summer bed (a chair-like seat that reclines) next to the wave pool. We then headed to the various pools and slides, starting around 11:00.
Around 1:00 PM, we got hungry, so we lined up at the fast food counter (about 10 groups in line) and bought a $9.99 lunch set (hamburger, chicken + fries, drinks separate; there are other menu items available, including beer). We quickly ate and then headed back to the slides, and before we knew it, it was already closing time at 3:00 PM. Well, there weren't many attractions, and we didn't have to wait much, so it felt just right.
The staff in the park are very kind and cheerful. They are serious about their work.
For those staying at the Marriott Ko Olina Beach Club (which we were), be careful as the pickup location for the shuttle bus is unclear. Even asking the hotel staff doesn't provide much clarity.
The actual pickup location for the bus is not at the front entrance of the Marriott but down the slope outside the front entrance, at the entrance of the Marriott property on the street where cars come in. A WET & WILD minibus (more like a large HiAce) comes there. We waited at the front entrance thinking that was the pickup point, but when it didn't arrive, we checked and found it was at the lower road. We almost missed it and had to wait for the next bus.
There is a prior email with information about the meeting place, but the map (Google Maps) shows the meeting place near the front entrance, which is quite misleading. If you are fluent in English, it’s a good idea to directly ask the local operator or have someone at the Marriott Japanese desk call the operator for clarification on the meeting point or any uncertainties.
Overall, it was a fun experience, and I enjoyed spending time with my kids.
Take care.
8月末に行ってきました。私と妻と子供が3人です(子供は7歳、10歳、13歳)
プールは波の出るプールや、幼児用の浅い遊べるプールや、5種類ぐらいかなスライダーがあります。ブギーボード?もできますよ。うちの子は波のプールやスライダーが気に入ったようです。
このプランを使うと一人分子供がタダですがそれでも3万円は普通ないですね。価値から考えると高い。施設自体もあまり新しくありませんし、規模も期待より小さいです。
スライダー自体は大人の私も結構楽しいです。特にトルネードがおすすめですね。ただ、園内はスライダーをやるためにはコンクリートの階段をはだしで上までかねばならず足が少々熱い。(小高いところまで自力で歩きます)
送迎バスの到着が10時半過ぎ、よくわからない園内をぶらりとしながら、有料のロッカーに荷物を入れ、波の出るプールわきのサマーベッド(椅子みたいな背もたれが倒れる席)に手荷物、タオルなどを置きそれぞれのプール、スライダーに出かけると11時くらいがスタート。
13時くらいにおなかがすいたというのでファーストフードの列(10組ぐらい並んでいる)に並び9.99ドルのランチセット(ハンバーガー、チキン+フライドポテト 系 ドリンク別、単品ではほかにもメニューあり ビールもあります)を買い、ササっと食べて再びスライダーへとやっていたらあっという間に閉園時間の15時という感じでした。まあ言うほどアトラクションの数も多くなく、並ぶこともあまりなかったのでちょうどよい感じでした。
園内の係員はとても親切で明るいです。真面目です。
マリオットコオリナビーチクラブにお泊りの方は(うちはそうでしたが)送迎バスの迎えに来る場所があいまいでよくわからないのでご注意を。
ホテルの人に聞いてもよくわからないという状態です。
実際にバスの迎えに来る場所はマリオットの正面玄関のロータリーのところではなく正面玄関を出て坂を下り、車が入ってくる通りのマリオットの敷地の入口のところです。そこにWET&WILDのマイクロバス(というより特大ハイエースみたいなの)が来ます。うちは正面玄関かと思って待っていましたが来ないので確認してもらったら下の道路のところでした。乗り遅れて2便を出してもらいました。
事前メールで集合場所の知らせがありますがその地図(グーグルマップ)の集合場所は正面玄関付近になっておりかなりいい加減なんです。英語が堪能な方は直接現地催行会社に尋ねるか、マリオットの日本語デスクの人に集合場所や不明点を催行会社に電話してもらうといいですよ。
まあ全体としては楽しく子供とも過ごせたので良かったとしておきます。
お気をつけて。

I participated with my mother and younger brother! It was my brother's first time in Hawaii and my mother's first time at the sandbar, but thanks to the fun staff, we had a wonderful time. My elderly mother, who can't swim, was also able to join with peace of mind!
母と弟と三人で参加しました!
弟は初ハワイ 母はサンドバー初でしたが
楽しいスタッフの方々のお陰で素敵な時間となりました。
高齢で泳げない母も安心して参加できました!

This is my third time visiting with just a ticket reservation. On the way, there was traffic, and I arrived a bit late, but there was no staff around. I picked up my ticket at the counter.
There is a bag check when entering, but despite the crowd, there was only one person checking bags. Food and drinks are not allowed inside the park (unopened bottled water is okay for the number of people), but many Japanese visitors were trying to bring in food, resulting in a long line.
The attractions are always fun, no matter when you go! You need to carry a float to get on the rides, which is also good exercise. Be careful, as each attraction has specific float requirements!
チケットのみの申し込みで、利用3回目です。
行く途中で、渋滞があり、少し遅れてしまったら、スタッフらしき人は誰もおらず、
窓口でチケットを受けとりました。
入る時に荷物検査があるのですが、混雑にも関わらず、見る人は1人。
園内は、飲食持ち込み禁止(未開封のペットボトル水、人数分はオッケー)ですが、
食べ物を持ち込みしようとする日本人が多くて長蛇の列になってました。
アトラクションは、いつ行っても楽しい!
乗るには、浮き輪を持って登らないと行けませんが、運動にもなって良いです。
アトラクションごとに浮き輪が決まっているので注意です!

It was cloudy and the water level was high, so I couldn't see the scenery like in the guidebook, but I was able to see sea turtles and manta rays, which was enjoyable. The bus ride to and from the location had very strong air conditioning, so it would be better to change into clothes instead of wearing a swimsuit on the way back.
曇りなうえに水位も高く、ガイドブックで見るような景色は見られませんでしたが、ウミガメやマンタを見ることができ、楽しめました。行き帰りのバスはかなり冷房がきついので、帰りは水着ではなく服に着替えたほうがよさそうです。

Thank you for your valuable feedback. I will share your comments with the staff. Additionally, on the west side of Oahu, the encounter rate with dolphins is about 95%, but the situation with the dolphins varies daily. They may swim away quickly or play around for a long time, which can affect the time available for swimming. Since we are dealing with wild dolphins, I appreciate your understanding.
貴重な書き込みありがとうございます。こちらの書き込みはスタッフとシェアさせていただきます。また、オアフ島ウエストサイドでは、イルカの遭遇率は95%ほどですが、毎日イルカの状況が違います。早く泳ぎ去ってしまうこともありますし、長い間回遊して遊んでいることもあり、泳げる時間に差が出てしまいますが、野生のイルカが相手なので、ご理解いただけると幸いです。
