【冬季限定!1/3~3/21】ホエールウォッチ スターオブホノルル号 1500名乗船可能なハワイ最大のクルーズ船!軽食&ドリンク付き<ワイキキ送迎可>

They finally showed up. 最後に出てきてくれました

Reviewed by: Kちゃん

I arranged for a pickup to the port, making the travel easy.

After the ship set sail, I enjoyed the view from the boat and thought, "I wonder if they'll come out today? When will they come out?" I had seen something like a spout once, so I was hopeful, but they didn't show up for a while. Just when I thought it was over, they jumped out in succession.

I'm really glad I got to see them. I appreciate the captain for extending the trip a bit since they came out towards the end!

港まで送迎付きにして楽に移動。
船が出航してしばらくは船からの景色を楽しみ、「今日は出てきてくれるかな? いつ出てきてくれるのかな?」なんて思っていました。
一度潮吹き、のようなものを見たので期待しつつも、その後もなかなか出てきてくれず、最後ダメかなと思ったら、連続でジャンプしてくれました。

とにかく見られて良かったです。
最後の方に連続だったので、少し運行を伸ばしてくれた船長さんに感謝!

Tips and suggestions

It is said that they can be seen from January to March, but February is a good month as many babies are born and families spend time together.

1月から3月まで見られるそうですが、2月は赤ちゃんが生まれて親子、家族でいることが多いらしく、良い月とのことです。

I saw a whale! くじら!見えました!

Reviewed by: NORICK

Thank you very much.
I made wonderful memories.
I saw whales about eight times in total... I wish I could have seen them a bit closer.
I was very happy to see dolphins and sea turtles as well.
The meeting place was a bit hard to find, and I would have liked to go closer to Diamond Head if possible.

ありがとうございました
素敵な思い出ができました
くじらは全部で8回くらい・・・もう少し近くでみれるとよかったですが
イルカと海がめもみれたのでとてもうれしかったです

「アロハ、名前さん!
レビューありがとうございます。アトランティスクルーズのマジェスティック号での素晴らしい冒険でしたね。私たちは、キャプテンとナチュラリストがクジラを見つけたことに興奮しています。それは本当に一生に一度の体験で、数少ない人だけが目にする機会を持っています。将来的に、私たちの潜水艦やアトランティスクルーズのマジェスティック号で再びお迎えできることを楽しみにしています。もう一度アトランティスの冒険、つまり水中の旅、サンセットクルーズ、または季節のクジラウォッチクルーズを体験してください。ぜひ、#atlantishawaiiで私たちをソーシャルメディアでフォローしてください。アフイホウ(次回まで)。」

"Aloha Name!
Thank you for review. What an amazing adventure aboard the Majestic by Atlantis Cruises. We are excited our captain and naturalist spotted whales. That is truly a lifetime experience only few ever have the opportunity to witness. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back in the future aboard one of our submarines and/or the Majestic by Atlantis Cruises for another Atlantis adventure; an underwater journey, sunset cruise, or seasonal whale watch cruise. Feel free to follow us on social media at #atlantishawaii. A hui hou (until next time). "

The return trip is tough. 帰りが大変

Reviewed by: Rinan

I didn't get seasick, perhaps because there were no waves. I also enjoyed the scenery of Waianae. Since it takes quite a while to navigate to the whale watching point, it's better for those who are prone to seasickness to take medication beforehand. Check-in is just before departure, so if you arrive early, there’s nothing to do while waiting.

Star of Honolulu Whale Watching Cruise with Banana Bread & Coffee | 2-Hour Morning Tour [Jan-Mar]

GREAT BOGO Whale Watching Adventure

Reviewed by: Marz

I took a special By One Get One ticket deal for the early bird whale watching tour and it was phenomenal. We had the pleasure of standing by the naturalist, Alyssa for most of the trip and she was very informative and a joy to be around. We saw a momma and her calf breach, and several fluke tail breach’s. The star itself had a ton of space to allow families to spread out and was clean. What a great experience!

ウェット アンド ワイルド ハワイ 絶叫ウォータースライダーなど25種類以上のアトラクションが揃うウォーターパーク ランチやドリンク付きパッケージプランあり

Saturday in February 2月の土曜日

Reviewed by: ゆうこ

I visited during the off-season. Overall, it was not crowded, and there were plenty of beach beds available. My child was too scared to go on the slides, so it ended up being a bit pricey in terms of cost performance, but I would recommend it if you can enjoy the various types of slides.

The lazy river has a gentler current compared to Japan, so it might feel a bit lacking. The wave pool had so many floaties that they ran out.

A Japanese staff member assisted with entry, which was very helpful and easy to understand.

オフシーズンに利用しました。
全体的に空いていて、ビーチベッドも十分使えました。子どもが怖がってスライダーに行けなかったので、コスパとしては高くつきましたが、いろんな種類のスライダーを楽しめるのならおすすめです。

流れるプールは流れが日本よりもゆったりしているので物足りないかもしれません。波の出るプールは浮き輪が足りなくなるくらいでした。

Star of Honolulu Whale Watching Cruise with Banana Bread & Coffee | 2-Hour Morning Tour [Jan-Mar]

Very Nice and Relaxing Voyage

Reviewed by: Mark

All of the staff on the boat, from the Captain to the servers were all very nice, accommodating and service minded. Joshua did a great job answering questions and adding nuggets of knowledge about the trip. The ship was in great condition and prepared for the cruise, and it made for a very relaxing and comfortable voyage.

Unfortunately, we didn’t see any whales on this tour, but as a fisherman, I understand the difference between fishing and catching, and sometimes the fish just aren’t cooperating and ya just need to relax and enjoy the beauty. But, the most important thing is, as Larry Fleet says in the song “Where I Find God”, “you can’t find Peace Like this in a bottle or a pill”.

I would do this trip again in a heartbeat, and if we see a whale, that would just be lagniappe!

カウアイ島日帰りツアー ワイメア渓谷&シダ洞窟へ行くワイルア川クルーズ <英語ガイド>

I was worried because I couldn't speak English, but I'm glad I went! 英語も話せないので不安でしたが行ってよかった!

Reviewed by: yuu

First of all, I was worried because I can't speak English, but as soon as I arrived at the airport, the English-speaking guide approached me, which made me feel at ease. They took us around Kauai Island in a large bus. There were so many highlights, and everything was moving. Perhaps because we were able to share such wonderful views, by the time we were leaving, I had become friends with everyone, and it was sad to say goodbye. This is a tour where you can have a great time even if you're traveling alone!

まず、英語が話せないので英語ガイドさんは不安でしたが空港に着いたらすぐに声をかけてくださって安心しました。大きなバスでカウアイ島を案内してくださいます。

Reviewed by: もは

I had previously used the Star of Honolulu for the sunset dinner cruise, but this was my first time participating in another activity. I was able to see whales from a distance. Even if you don't understand English, they provide simple explanations like "at 3 o'clock," so there's not much to worry about.

From the boat, I could enjoy the urban skyline of Waikiki alongside the natural beauty of Diamond Head, which truly felt like a Hawaiian landscape. The light snacks, like pineapple banana bread and Kona coffee, were delicious, making this activity enjoyable both as a whale watching experience and simply as a cruise.

スターオブホノルルはサンセットディナークルーズで利用したことはありましたが、それ以外のアクティビティで参加するのは初めてでした。

We participated with four adults and a 0-year-old and a 3-year-old, bringing a foldable stroller. The elevator was available, so moving to the deck was not an issue, but we couldn't change diapers (we used the stroller to do that). The stroller was necessary for our subsequent plans, but we could leave our belongings at the table we were initially guided to, so it was great that it didn't get in the way while watching the whales.

I thought seeing the whales was completely a matter of luck, but in February, we were fortunate to see them! Two whales happened to swim back and forth quite close to the surface multiple times, allowing us to capture them with our eyes, not just on video or in photos, which was lucky! The captain announced in English, "They're at 10 o'clock!" or "Look to the 9 o'clock direction!" and we moved based on that and hints from those around us. There was one person who could speak a little Japanese, so for those who are not confident in English, it might be a good idea to stick with that person. By the way, my family also saw dolphins and turtles… I'm envious!

The guides on the way there and back were English speakers and very cheerful. Especially on the way back, they were flexible, changing our drop-off point and accepting requests for unexpected stops. Since the tour ended before noon, I was thinking about going to Ala Moana Shopping Center afterward, but I was unsure how to get there. However, I learned that it was possible to get off the bus along the way, which I wanted to take advantage of, but due to various circumstances, we ended up getting off at our hotel.

I want to come back again when the kids are older!

0歳3歳大人4人、折り畳めるベビーカー持参で参加しました。エレベーター完備なので、デッキへの移動は問題ないのですが、おむつ替えは出来ませんでした(ベビーカーを使って換えました)。その後の予定のために必要だったベビーカーですが、最初に案内されるテーブルに荷物を置いて行けるので、鯨を観る時には邪魔にならず良かったです。

鯨は完全に運だとは思いましたが、流石に2月!しっかり会えました。たまたま2頭が結構近くの海面を何度も行ったり来たりしてくれたお陰で、ビデオや写真だけに追われず肉眼でも捉える事ができて、ラッキーでした!船長さんが、10時にいるよ!とか9時方向だ!とか英語でアナウンスしてくれるのと、周りの人をヒントに移動しました。お一人、日本語が少し話せる方もいたので、英語苦手な方はその方にくっついていくのもありかもです。
ちなみに、私の家族はイルカとカメも見たとの事…羨ましい

行き帰りは英語のガイドさん。行きも帰りも、陽気な方達でした。特に帰りは、降りる場所を変更してくれたり、予定外の停車場所もリクエスト受け付けてくれたりと、臨機応変に対応していました。ツアーが昼前に終わるので、その後はアラモアナショッピングセンターでと考えていましたが、どうやって行くか悩んでいました。でも、バスの途中下車が可能との事でこちらを上手く活用…したかったのですが、色々あって結局自分達のホテルで降りました。

子供が大きくなったらまた来てあげたいです!

I saw a whale up close! クジラが間近に見えた!

Reviewed by: ハワイユーホエール

On the cruise departing from West Oahu at 1:30 PM, our family was the only Japanese participants. The crew only spoke English.

What was great was that we saw whales quite close right after departure, which was lucky. Of course, it wasn't as spectacular as the photos in the advertisements. The crew was friendly and even spoke to us, taking family photos for us. The views from the boat were also fantastic.

A bit disappointing was that we only saw whales three times in the first 30 minutes of the two-hour cruise, and the rest of the time was spent staring at the ocean surface. Considering that there are times when you might not see any whales, I might be being a bit greedy.

With the mindset that seeing whales is just a bonus, I think it would be perfect to enjoy a leisurely cruise off the coast of West Oahu as long as the weather is good.

西オアフから13時30分発の出航のクルーズで参加者の日本人は私たち家族だけでした。クルーも英語しかしゃべりません。
良かったのは、出発してすぐにかなり近くでクジラが見えたこと、これはラッキーでした。もちろん、広告の写真のようにはいきませんが。また、クルーもフレンドリーで日本人の私たちに声をかけてくれて、家族の写真を撮ってくれました。船上からの景色も最高でした。
少し残念だったのは、クジラが見えたのは2時間のクルーズのうち最初の30分くらいに3回だけで、残りは海面と睨めっこで終わったことでしょうか。クジラが見えないこともあるということを思えば、欲張りかもしれませんが。
クジラは見えればラッキーくらいの気持ちで、のんびり西オアフ島沖のクルーズを楽しむには、天候さえ良ければ最高だと思います。

I was able to see both the lucky sea turtle and the whale. 幸運のウミガメもクジラも観れました

Reviewed by: ayu

I participated in mid-February!
It was rainy, but thanks to that, it wasn't too hot, and I was able to look for whales from the deck.

During the ride to the meeting point, the guide talked a lot about the area and sightseeing, making the trip enjoyable.

On the boat, we were served delicious original cake and coffee before departure, which served as a nice breakfast. The original pineapple banana cake was moist and tasty.

During the whale watching, the guide indicated where the whales were based on the direction of the clock, so there was a high probability of seeing whales multiple times.

Not only did we see whales, but we were also lucky enough to see sea turtles up close!

The view from the boat was also amazing, and I was moved by the beauty of Diamond Head and the horizon.

It became a wonderful memory, and I am very satisfied.

2月中旬に参加しました!
雨模様だったのですがそのおかげで暑すぎることなく、デッキでクジラを探すことが出来ました。

お迎えの車中ではガイドさんがエリアや観光についてたくさん話して下さり、移動も楽しかったです。

船では美味しいオリジナルケーキとコーヒーが出港前に食べられるので、朝ごはん代わりになりました。オリジナルのパイナップルバナナケーキはしっとりしてて美味しかったです。

ホエールウォッチングの最中は時計の方向でクジラがどこにいるかを教えてくれるので殆どの確率で何度かクジラを見ることが出来ます。

クジラだけではなくウミガメも近くで見ることが出来たのでとても幸運でした!

そして船上からの景色も素晴らしく、ダイヤモンドヘッドや水平線の美しさに感動しました。

とても素敵な思い出になり、満足です。

Tips and suggestions

It can be cold on the boat, so it's important to wear a jacket and a hat that won't get blown away. Also, the floor inside the boat can be slippery with water, so I recommend wearing sneakers.

Tips and suggestions

船上は寒いので羽織れる洋服と帽子は飛ばされないように注意が必要です。あと船の中は水で滑るのでスニーカーが良いと思います。

How well the whales were visible. クジラがどの程度見えたか

Reviewed by: ローズくん

I took TheBus to the meeting point. It was $7 round trip (since it's $7 for unlimited rides in a day). It's necessary to check in advance how to ride TheBus and how to find routes (you can find bus stops using Google). Upon arriving at the meeting point, you will present your voucher (which is sent via email after booking) for check-in.

Once on board, there was an unlimited supply of fruit cake and coffee (though I couldn't eat that much). As for finding whales, the spouts are a good indicator. I witnessed a few spouts, but they rarely appeared above the water. I participated with the image from the last attached photo in mind, but this time we only managed to see the tail fin to some extent during the whale watching.

集合場所にはTheBusで行きました。往復$7でOKです(一日$7で乗り放題なので)。TheBusの乗り方や経路(Googleでバス停が案内可能です)の調べ方は事前に確認が必要です。集合場所に到着するとバウチャー(予約完了後にメールで送られる)を提示して受付となります。
乗船後はフルーツケーキやコーヒーなどは食べ放題、飲み放題でした(そんなに食べられませんが)。クジラの探し方としては、潮吹きが目印となります。何回か潮吹きを目撃しましたが、海上に現れることは少なかったです。添付の最後の写真をイメージして参加しましたが、今回は尾びれを確認できる程度のウォッチング結果でした。

Tips and suggestions

If whales are not seen (it's a bit gray how much), it seems you can participate again. Whether you can witness them depends solely on timing, so all we can do is pray.

Tips and suggestions

クジラが見られない場合は(どの程度かグレーですが)、再度参加可能とのこと。目撃できるかはタイミングしかないので、祈るしかないですね。

Nature is the opponent. 自然が相手

Reviewed by: tomtom

The purpose is to see whales, but it's quite difficult to find them. When we finally spot one, cheers erupt, and we rush over in that direction to look for it. Since it's nature we're dealing with, it's understandable, but we were able to see a spout, a back, and a tail in the distance.

クジラを見る目的なのだが、なかなか探せないです。見つけたときは歓声が上がり、その方向に走り寄って探します。自然が相手だから仕方ないですが、遠くに潮吹きと背中、しっぽを見つけることができました。

You shouldn't have too many expectations. It seems there are times when you can't find anything at all, so I think it's important to have the flexibility to enjoy the cruising experience.

It takes time to swim. 泳ぐまで時間がかかる

Reviewed by: tomtom

Since it was early in the morning, the pickup time was 5:45 AM. We arrived at a nearby cape before dawn and waited for a while, reaching the entrance just after 7 AM. After entering at 8 AM with standard equipment (snorkel, fins) along with optional life jackets, umbrellas, and chairs, there was a presentation, and we finally made it to the beach by 8:30 AM, ready to swim. Overall, the time spent carrying our belongings was long and tiring. We did see some fish in the sea, but the scenery wasn't as impressive as we had hoped. I also thought the entrance fee of $25 per person was high.

朝一だったのでピックアップの時間は5時45分、夜明け前に近くの岬に到着してしばらく待機し、入口についたのが7時過ぎ。入口から標準装備(シュノーケル、フィン)の他にオプションの救命具、パラソル、椅子をもって8時に入場開始が始まり、説明の上映もあって、8時半にやっと浜辺に着き泳げる体制になりました。とにかく荷物を運んでいる時間も長くくたびれました。海は魚も見れましたが、期待しているほどの景観ではなかったです。また入場料も25ドル/人は高いと思いました。

朝は逆光のため思ったより景観は良くなく、入場制限もあるので昼頃に入るのが良いと思います。
