Oahu
Overall, I had an enriching American-style tour experience. As soon as we arrived at the sandbar, we went snorkeling and saw the fish underwater. My husband, who experienced snorkeling for the first time, was thrilled by the colorful fish! After getting down to the sandbar, we played volleyball with a net that was set up. Chasing the ball, passing it, and applauding nice plays created an unexpected sense of camaraderie. The BBQ lunch we had when we got hungry was incredibly delicious. The staff were kind and cheerful, and there were staff members who understood Japanese, which made for a fun and truly memorable experience.
とにかく、アメリカ的で充実したツアーが体験できました。サンドバーに着くなり、シュノーケリングで海中の魚を見ました。色とりどりの魚の姿に、初めてシュノーケリングを体験した夫は大喜び! サンドバーに降りた後、張られたネットでバレーボールをしました。ボールを追いかけてパスしたり、ナイスプレーに拍手したり、思わぬ連帯感を感じました。お腹がすいて食べたBBQランチはすご~い美味しかった~。スタッフが親切で明るくて、日本語が分かるスタッフもいたので、楽しくてすごくいい思い出ができました。
Shuttle service to Hanauma Bay with inclusion of snorkelling hire + flippers. Some additional hire costs $3 for add on to snorkel deeper without water coming into snorkel. Reliable timing of pick up and drop off. Friendly staff. Booked last minute and was very happy with service.
Hubby and I came to Hawaii for our 30th anniversary. Perfect way to spend our Friday night. Views were awesome as was the crew. Enjoyed the food as well.
My family and I went to this tour for the very first and we had fun with our experience. We were able to visit one of this historical sites in Hawaii but also our tour guide named Cody was a very jolly person and entertained us while we are on the bus. I would recommend this tour to my other families and friends as well. :)
The weather was cloudy with occasional sunshine, but it was very beautiful. The water was up to my waist, and I was truly moved by the scenery that can only be seen in Hawaii! The staff were all friendly, and the cheeseburger was delicious. It was a bit cold on the way back, but I had a great time. Thank you very much.
曇り時々晴れの天気ですがとても綺麗でした。
海面は腰位までありましたが、やはりハワイでないとみられない景色に感動です!!
スタッフの皆さんもフレンドリーでチーズバーガーも美味しかった。
帰りはちょっと寒かったけどとても楽しかったです。ありがとうございました。
The sandbar was not as white as I had imagined, and the water was up to my waist. It seems that this depends on the time of year, and to experience the condition I envisioned, I would need to plan my visit accordingly.
Still, the feeling of walking in the middle of the ocean was quite strange.
After getting wet, it gets pretty cold on the boat, so a change of clothes or something to cover up is essential! (I felt quite cold myself.)
The hamburger I had on the boat was delicious!
サンドバーは、想像していたよりは白くなく、腰上ぐらいまで海水がありました。
これは行く時期に依るらしく、想像する状態を体験するためには、時間時期を決め打ちでいかないと行けないとのことでした。
それでも、海のど真ん中を歩いている感覚は、なんだか不思議でした。
濡れた後、ボートに乗ると結構寒いので、着替えか羽織るものは必須です!(自分は結構寒い思いをしました)
ボートの上で食べるハンバーガーは美味しかったです!
I just want to say that it didn't turn out like the attached photo. I didn't bring a swimsuit this time because I didn't want to wear one. I thought it would be fine to just wear shorts since I was only going to step onto the sand.
But then I heard that the sandy area only appears during new moons or full moons. When I actually went, the beautiful white sand was under the gorgeous blue sea. The water was about knee-deep. However, to get down, I had to wade into the water up to my chest and then walk to that spot, which ended up meaning I had to view it from the boat... Not bringing a swimsuit was a mistake, but I never expected that the time when it looks like the promotional images would only be during a very limited period.
Well, aside from that, the weather was nice, and I got to see a lot of sea turtles, so it was good overall. Yeah, I guess I don't need to make a choice next time.
添付の写真のようにはいかないということだけ言っておきます。
水着になるのが嫌だったので、今回は水着は持って行かなかったわけです。
サンドの上に降り立つだけなので、ハーフパンツでいいかなと。
そしたら、砂地が出るのは新月とか満月とか、そういう時だけっていうじゃないですか。
実際行ってみたら、きれいな白い砂地はキレイなブルーな海の下。
膝の高さくらいまで海があったかな。
ただ、降りる際には一度海に胸くらいまで入って、その場所まで歩いて行かないといけなくて、
結果船から眺めるハメに・・・。
水着を持ってこなかったのも失敗だったんですが、まさかプロモーション画像のような時期は、
ほんの一部の時期だけなんて。
まぁそれを除けば、天気もよかったし、ウミガメもたくさん見れたし、良かったかな。
うん、もう次はチョイスしなくてヨシ。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We are delighted to hear that the weather was nice on the day of your visit and that you were able to enjoy watching the sea turtles.
Regarding the water level at the sandbar that you mentioned, as indicated on the tour page, please understand that due to the tides, there may be times when the sand beach is not visible. However, we can imagine that you were disappointed not to see the sandbar with the sand exposed above the water as you had hoped.
Additionally, please note that you will need to move through the water from the boat's docking position to the sandbar, so we kindly ask that you wear a swimsuit in advance.
Thank you very much for your valuable feedback despite your busy schedule.

この度は、ツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございます。
当日は天気もよく、ウミガメをご鑑賞いただけたようで嬉しく思います。
ご指摘いただいておりますサンドバーの水位につきましては、ツアーページ上でご案内させていただいております通り、潮の満ち引きの関係上、砂浜が見えない場合もございますことご理解いただけますと幸いです。しかしながら、ご期待のそった水面から砂地がでているサンドバーをご覧いただくことができず、残念なお気持ちだったかと察します。
また、船の停泊位置からサンドバーまでは水の中を移動していただきますので、事前に水着の着用をお願いしておりますことご了承ください。
お忙しい中、貴重なご投稿を賜りまして、誠にありがとうございました。

I signed up because it wasn't too early in the morning.
I was disappointed that I could only see the sea turtles for a moment.
Playing beach volleyball at the sandbar was fun.
The hamburger was delicious.
Since it was my first time snorkeling, I would have appreciated a more detailed explanation.
I wanted to know that it's easier to swim using fins rather than treading water in deeper areas, and that you should get back on the boat facing backward.
The water was about thigh-deep, but I was satisfied to have gone to the sandbar.
朝が早すぎないので申込しました。
海ガメが一瞬しか見れなかったのが残念でした。
サンドバーでのビーチバレーが楽しかったです。
ハンバーガーも美味しかったです。
シュノーケルをしたのが初めてだったので、説明は丁寧にしてもらいたかったです。
深い所では立泳ぎより足ヒレを使って泳いでた方が楽とか船に上がる時は後ろ向きからとか説明して欲しかったです。
太股くらいまで水がありましたが、サンドバーに行けて満足でした。
The pickup was on time, the bus driving was problem-free, and the guide was very entertaining and likable. However, the weather was not great; it was overcast, and the sea water was cold, which was completely different from the blue sky I had imagined, so I was very disappointed. I wonder if it depends on the season? I think it would be helpful if you could include that information as well.
ピックアップは時間通り、バスの運転も問題なく、ガイドさんはとても面白く、好感が持て良かった。
ただ、お天気が今一で、ドンヨリしていて、海の水は冷たくて、想像していた青い空晴れ渡る空のもととは全然違うものだったので、とても残念だった。時期にもよるのかなぁ?と思いますが、その辺も書いて頂けると参考に出来ると思いました。
Two people in their 60s, two in their 30s, an 18-year-old, a 7-year-old, and a 2-year-old participated. The crew and the hamburgers on board were very delicious, which was great, but they mentioned that the sandbar area is close to the mountains and there aren't many sunny days. It was very cold. When getting off the boat to the sandbar, you have to go into the water up to about your waist. My 18-year-old eldest son and my husband had fun participating in the sandbar activities, but they did not join the snorkeling. About half of the participants did not join. Those who did were shivering. If you bring plenty of warm clothing and think about staying warm, you can enjoy it. I thought it would be the same as the sandbars in Okinawa, so I only prepared for heatstroke. It was the complete opposite.
60代2人30代2人18歳7歳2歳で参加。乗務員さんや、船上のハンバーガーはとっても美味しくて良かったですが、サンドバー付近は、山間の近くにあって、なかなか晴れる日がないとの事。とっても寒いです。船からサンドバーに降りるときは、へそ下ぐらいまで海に入らないとだめです。18歳の長男と旦那は楽しく、サンドバーバレーに参加してましたが、シュノーケリングは,不参加。半分ぐらいの方不参加でした。入った人は、がくがく震えてました。着替えなどたくさん持って防寒を考えていくと入れます。私は、沖縄のサンドバーと同じだと思っていたので、熱中症対策ばかりで。真逆でした。
This is my second time participating.
The contrast between the sky, the sea, and the surrounding scenery is beautiful.
I was able to see many sea turtles as well.
2回目の参加です。
とにかく、空と海と周囲の景色とのコントラストが綺麗です。
ウミガメとも沢山会えました。
Had a great time! Really fun people and a really funny and exciting show. Had a great time and delicious food and so many exciting activities and souvenirs. Everyone there is pleasant and it's worth the deals they have online!!
I have been to a number of Luau's on Oahu and this one is by far the best, mostly due to the brilliant 'Chief' who will keep you laughing throughout the evening. The food is excellent, the Hawaiian dancing is magical, the fire dance is spectacular, the whole evening is just total enjoyment from beginning to end. A show not to be missed.
We had a bit of anxiety as adults, but we were able to enjoy ourselves without any issues! With the day pass and shuttle plan, I was worried about lunch, but for just under $10, there were hamburgers, hot dogs, and pizza. We ordered the hamburger combo, and it was delicious! I'm glad we didn't choose a plan that included lunch. We'll definitely come back when we visit Hawaii again!
大人二人にちょっと不安がありましたが全く問題なく遊べました☆
1日パスと送迎のプランでお昼が心配でしたが10$弱でハンバーガーやホットドッグ、ピザがあり私達はハンバーガーのコンボを注文。美味しい~♪昼食が付くプランにしなくて良かったと思いました(^^)
ハワイに来たらまた来ます♪
This was the most organized event I have ever been to. The staff was amazing and didn't miss a step. Honestly, with as many people they take care of and coming from all over the world, the staff was exceptional. Even the language barrier wasn't a problem. The food was excellent and the presentation was over the top. I would recommend this to anyone and will probably do this again.
We went on our honeymoon, and it became a very enjoyable memory. The captain kept the atmosphere lively throughout the shuttle bus ride, and we had a great time playing volleyball in the shallow waters and enjoying handmade hamburgers from the crew.
Snorkeling at the coral reef allowed us to swim closely with sea turtles and interact with colorful fish.
However, the weather was bad that day, and the strong winds made it quite cold, which was disappointing as we couldn't see many sea turtles.
If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to go back!
新婚旅行で行ったのですが、とても楽しい思い出になりました。
送迎バスよりキャプテンが終始盛り上げてくれ、浅瀬でのバレーボールやクルーの方の手作りハンバーガーなど、楽しいひとときを過ごさせていただきました。
珊瑚礁でのシュノーケリングは、ウミガメと間近で泳げたり、色とりどりの魚達と触れ合うことができました。
ただ、当日の天気が悪く風も強かったため、ウミガメがあまり見れず、何よりも寒かったのが残念でした…。
またハワイに行く機会があったら、是非もう一度行きたいです!
I was excited to see the morning whales and set out. It was drizzling a bit, but I boarded the ship. First, we had a morning brunch (buffet), which felt a little lacking. When we arrived along the coast of Diamond Head, I got my camera ready and waited. However, unfortunately, the boat returned. They said they would give us a free ticket to try again during the period, but I can't stay in Hawaii that long. I'll try again next year!
朝鯨がみれるとワクワクでかけました
小雨ぱらついていましたがいざ乗船
最初にモーニングランチ(バイキング)少し物足りない感じ
ダイアモンドヘッド沿岸に到着いざカメラを構え待機
でもあられず(; ;)ホロホロ船は戻りました
期間中の再挑戦無料チケットをくばりますといわれましたが
そんなにハワイにいれない
来年再度挑戦(*^o^*)
Thank you very much for participating in our cruise.
We are very sorry that you were unable to observe any whales this time.
We look forward to seeing you again next season!
Regarding your comments about the meal, I will translate them into English and forward them to the manager in charge to help improve future cruises.
Thank you for your valuable feedback.

It's a very enjoyable plan if you're with someone. However, I've heard that the sand mountain only appears 2-3 days a year. But the freshly grilled hamburgers were delicious, and it became a great memory.
連れと一緒ならとても楽しいプランです。
ただ、ほんとに砂山が出現は年に2-3日とのこと。
でもハンバーガー焼きたてでおいしいし良い思い出になりました。
In Hawaii, you might wonder about the pool, but there are attractions like slides that you can't find in Japan, and they were so much fun! I tried them about twice each, haha! I think it's great for those who love attractions!
Also, I took a 30-minute nap on a lounge chair in front of the wave pool, which felt wonderful and made me feel like I was relaxing on the beach. I believe everyone—friends, couples, and families—can enjoy it!
Additionally, the atmosphere and the color of the pool felt different from Japan, giving me a sense of being in a resort, which was very pleasant! Even though it was Golden Week, it wasn't crowded like in Japan, and the wait time was only about five minutes, so everything went smoothly.
Above all, the lifeguards were kind and greeted us with lovely smiles, making it a very comfortable experience. The warmth and smiles of the people in Hawaii are truly wonderful!
The only downside was that some attractions were not operational. I heard there are similar pools in other countries, so if I get the chance, I would definitely like to visit them!
ハワイで、プール?と思うかも知れませんが、日本にはないアトラクションのようなスライダーがあり、とても楽しかったです!だいたい、2回ずつほどチャレンジしました笑!アトラクションが好きな方にはすごくよいと思います!
また、波のプールの前にあるシートで30分ほど、お昼寝をしたのも大変気持ちよく、ビーチでゆっくりしている気分でした。
友達、カップル、家族みんな楽しめると思います!
また、雰囲気やプールの色でしょうか、日本とは違い、リゾートに来たかのような感じでとても気持ちが良かったです!
また、ゴールデンウィークでしたが、日本のように混み合っているわけではなく、並ぶ時間も5分程度と長い待ち時間がないので、スムーズで良かったです。
なにより、監視のお兄さんお姉さんも優しくとても素敵な笑顔であいさつしてくれたりととても心地よく、楽しむことができました!やっぱりハワイの方はあったかくて、笑顔が素敵ですね!
残念だったのは、いくつか動いていないアトラクションがいくつかありました。
他の国にも同じ系列?のプールがあるようでしたので、機会があれば、ぜひ行ってみたいです!
Aloha Nayumi,
Thank you for your valuable feedback. We will include it in our internal report.
Currently, on days with no congestion, we are rotating attractions and only have English signs, so we will place Japanese signs as well.
We look forward to your next visit.
アロハ Nayumi様、
貴重なご意見ありがとうございました。社内の報告看板にださせて頂きます。
只今、混雑がない日はアトラクションをローテイションさせて頂き英語のサインしかございませんので、日本語のサインをおかせて頂きます。
又のお越しをお待ち申し上げます。
Me & my mom had a blast on this dinner cruise. The staff, entertainment & food was superior. We would recommend this delightful activity to anyone coming to Waikiki. We would definitely do this again ourselves! This was a highlight & great memory of our Hawaiian vacation!
thank u so much. captain & staff. so nice & fun.
everything was good except bad weather (windy rain).
The transportation was smooth, and despite the strong winds, the boat didn't sway much, which was great. However, unfortunately, we weren't able to see any whales.
送迎もスムーズで船も風が強かったにも関わらずあまり揺れることなく良かったです。ただ、残念ながらクジラを見ることが出来きませんでした。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
We are very sorry to hear that you were unable to see any whales this time.
Please come back to search for whales again.
All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.

I was able to see dolphins up close. I had my photo taken, but there were people who had many photos for the same price and others who did not, so it would be nice if that could be improved. I thought the staff were cheerful and kind, which made it enjoyable.
イルカを近くで見ることができました。
写真を撮って頂きましたが、同じ金額で沢山写ってる人と、そうでない人といるし、他の人の写真ばかりのUSBを買っても、ちょっと困りますのでその辺は改善していただきたいと思います。
スタッフの皆さんも陽気で親切で楽しめたと思います。
It was my first experience in my life, and I was very impressed. The staff's explanations were also very interesting and easy to understand. I thought the beach would be exposed due to the tide, but on May 5th, it was only up to my knees, which was a bit disappointing.
生まれて初めての体験、感激しました。スタッフの説明も大変面白く、解りやすい感じでした。
潮の引き具合で、砂浜が出ていると思ってましたので、5月5日はひざ下ぐらいまでだったので少し残念でした。
It was a very fulfilling tour that lasted only in the morning. The sandbar was incredibly beautiful and felt like a different world. Since we could return to Waikiki by lunchtime, we were able to make good use of our time. It's okay to get on the bus in wet clothes, but it was still cold. I wish I had changed in the restroom before getting on.
午前中のみで、とても中身の濃いツアーでした。
サンドバーはとてもキレイで別世界。
お昼にはワイキキに帰れるので時間も有効に使えます。
帰りのバスは濡れた服のままでもオッケーですがやはり寒い。乗る前にトイレで着替えたら良かったなと、思いました。
Great day on the secret beach. Although there are only a few kayaks & SUP's, the 8 of us had plenty of time on them. Beach chairs provided and we took picnic. The area to use equipment is blocked off and is a tad smaller than we would have liked. Also the area is over a reef so if you fall in the water be careful. Enjoy
We participated in this tour because we really wanted to see wild dolphins on our honeymoon.
The meeting time was at 5:55 AM, but around 5:20 AM, a Japanese female staff member called our hotel room for a morning call. During that call, she informed us that we needed to wear swimsuits and that if we wanted to rent a wetsuit, it would cost $5 per person, so we needed to have cash on hand.
The participants on the bus were mostly Japanese, with about 20 people in total. Inside the bus, the Japanese staff explained the precautions and how to use the snorkel, which made us feel at ease. They also recommended that those who are prone to motion sickness take medication on the bus. Motion sickness wristbands were available for sale on the bus for $20, but I didn’t buy one. By the way, I got quite seasick during the parasailing the day before, but I didn’t feel sick at all during this dolphin tour.
Finally, we boarded the boat and cruised to the point where the dolphins were located. There were four staff members on board, and they were all very enthusiastic, chatting with us in English, which created a fun atmosphere throughout. Then we finally spotted the dolphins and dove into the sea with our snorkels! We swam close to the dolphins, and there were so many swimming just below me!! Both my husband and I were thrilled to see them up close. Please make sure to bring an underwater camera. I highly recommend participating in this tour.
ハネムーンで、野生のイルカをどうしても見たくて主人と二人で参加しました。
朝5時55分の集合でしたが、5時20分頃に、ホテルの部屋まで日本人の女性のスタッフの方からモーニングコールがありました。その際に水着着用のことと、水中は寒い為、ウエットスーツをレンタルする場合には、一人$5必要な為、現金が必要な旨連絡がありました。
到着したバスの参加者はほぼ日本人で、20名くらいがいたと思います。
バスの中で、日本人スタッフの方から注意事項やシュノーケルの使い方など説明があり安心できました。また酔いやすい方は、バスの中で薬を飲むことをお勧めします。バスでは酔い止めのリストバンドも売られていましたが、$20のため、私は買いませんでした。ちなみに前日参加したパラセイリングではかなり酔ってしまったのですが、このイルカツアーは全く酔わなかったです。
いよいよ船に乗り、イルカがいるポイントまでクルーズをします。スタッフの方4名いたのですが、皆さんテンションが高く英語で色々と話しかけてくれる為、終始楽しい雰囲気でした。そしていよいよイルカを発見し、シュノーケルをつけて海にダイブします!そしてイルカの近くまでみんなで泳いでいきました。するとそこにはたくさんのイルカたちが私のすぐ下を泳いでいました!!
こんなに間近で見ることができ、主人も私も感激しています。水中カメラは絶対に持参してください。
ぜひ参加をお勧めします。
I participated with my mother during this year's Golden Week! We stayed at Hilton Hawaiian Village, and the pickup location for the shuttle was easy to find within the hotel.
The park opened at 10:30, but the bus arrived quite early, around 9:30. The air conditioning on the bus was too cold, so it might be a good idea to dress warmly even in Hawaii.
After waiting for about 40 minutes, we started going through the gates around 10:15 and headed to the lockers to store our belongings. There was a monitor with instructions in Japanese nearby, and when you made a payment, your locker number was displayed. You can open and close the locker as many times as you want, so it's a good idea to store towels and money that you won't be using.
Half of the park features thrilling slides for adults, while the other half is geared towards children's pools. We were seeking thrills and enjoyed the Island Racer and Tornado rides repeatedly. Because of this, we had plenty of time and didn't feel rushed at all.
However, I was really disappointed that the Shaka ride was closed, as it was something I was looking forward to. There seems to be a hot spa as well, but it was closed at first, and when we passed by on our way out, it was open, which was unfortunate.
As for the pizza we had for lunch, to be honest, it wasn't good... it was cold, and there was no dressing for the salad. When I asked the staff, they pointed to a spot where the only options were ketchup, mustard, and barbecue sauce. None of those went well with the lettuce or olives, and I couldn't believe it cost $9.49. I wouldn't recommend the pizza.
The weather that day was cloudy with strong winds and occasional rain, but we still managed to enjoy ourselves since we saw some sunny moments!
今年のGWの休みを利用して母と参加しました!
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジに滞在し、送迎のピックアップ場所もそのホテル内とわかりやすかったです。
開園時間は10:30だったのですが大分早い9:30ころにバスが到着。バスが冷房ききすぎで寒かったのでハワイだからと言って薄着だと困るかも。
40分ほど待って、10時15分頃から順次ゲートをくぐり荷物を預けにロッカーへ向かいました。近くに日本語での案内モニターがあり、そこで入金するとロッカー番号が表示されるというシステムです。何度でも開閉可能なので使わないタオルやお金も預けるといいです◎
パーク内の半分は大人も楽しめる絶叫系スライダー、もう半分は子供向けプールというようにわかれており、スリルを求めていた私たちはひたすら半分のアイランド・レーサーやトルネードを楽しんでいました。(笑)そのため時間はたっぷり余り、ゆっくりと回ることもできたので時間も短いとは感じませんでした。
ただ、一番楽しみにしていたシャカがクローズとなっておりとっても残念でした。
ホットスパもあるみたいですが、最初のほうは閉まっており入れないと思ったら帰り際に通ったら開いており残念でした…。
昼食に食べたピザですが、はっきり言っておいしくない…冷めてるし、サラダにはドレッシングがなし。定員さんに聞くと、「あっち」と言われ見てみるとあったのはケチャップ、マスタード、バーベキューソース。レタスやオリーブにはどれも合わず、これに$9.49もかかるのか、、という感じでした。ピザはおすすめできないです。
当日の天気は曇り空で、風も強くたまに雨も降る微妙なコンディションでしたが晴れ間も見えたので十分楽しめました~
Dear Shiitan,
Thank you for your valuable feedback. I will promptly convey your comments regarding lunch to the person in charge of meals and we will consider how to improve it moving forward.
Also, please do visit us again when you come to Hawaii. We look forward to welcoming you.
しいたん様、
貴重なご意見ありがとうございました。 昼食に関してのご意見早速食事を担当しているものに伝えこれからどのように改善していくのかを検討させて頂きます。
又ハワイにお越しの際には是非おいで下さい。お待ち申し上げます。
The crew was friendly and knowledgeable! It was great to be able to sail. Out of KoOlina instead of driving into Honolulu! We were lucky enough to get up close and personal on our Snuba dive with a hospitable sea turtle! A+
Although the weather was unfortunately cloudy throughout the day and not sunny, the beauty of the sandbar's sea was highlighted when blue skies and light occasionally peeked through the clouds.
Since it wasn't low tide, the white sandy beach didn't rise above the water's surface, but we still enjoyed the stunning emerald green sea.
While snorkeling, we swam with many fish and encountered four sea turtles. There were even turtles swimming right next to us, which really got us excited when they came close!
The BBQ on the boat featured hamburgers, which were very delicious. The staff prepared them on the spot, adding cheese and other toppings, and they provided the service in a fun and engaging manner, making it enjoyable.
If I had one complaint, it would be that the guide staff during the transfer made some belittling jokes about Japanese people, which was off-putting. However, the other staff members were very friendly and great.
終始曇り空であいにくの天気で晴天というわけではなかったが、時々雲の切れ間からの青空と光が差し込むと、サンドバーの海の綺麗さが引き立って綺麗でした。
干潮ではなかったので、白い砂浜が水面に上がることはなかったが、エメラルドグリーンの海の綺麗さだけでも十分楽しめました。
シュノーケリングでは、たくさんのお魚と一緒に泳げ、ウミガメにも4匹遭遇できました。
人間のすぐ横で泳ぐ亀もいて近くに来た時はテンション上がりまくり!
船上でのBBQはハンバーガー。とっても美味しかったです。
スタッフがその場でチーズ等具材を挟んで提供してくれるのですが、事務的でなく遊びを交えて提供してくれ、楽しませてくれました。
1つ不満をあげるとすると、送迎の際のガイドスタッフが日本人を小馬鹿にしたジョークで蔑んでる感じを受け気を悪くしました。
その方以外のスタッフはとてもフレンドリーで良かったです。
