Oahu
I participated in the Christmas season last month. Since it was winter, the sea was a bit rough, but it was such an amazing tour that I didn't mind at all. We saw a lot of dolphins, and they were really close! I was also surprised to see a whale for the first time! The staff were incredibly kind, which warmed my heart. The taro burger for lunch was delicious—I want to eat it again! The hula instructor was also very entertaining, making it a tour that any Hawaii lover would enjoy, allowing you to truly experience Hawaii. I've participated in other dolphin tours, but I think Dolphin and You is by far the best. Honestly, the quality of the staff and the content is unmatched compared to other dolphin tours. If you're looking for a satisfying tour, I absolutely recommend it!!!
先月クリスマスシーズンに参加しました。
冬ということで海はちょっと荒れ気味?だったけど、そんなこと気にならないくらい、超最高のツアーでした。イルカもたくさん見れたし、本当近かったです。クジラも初めて見てビックリしました!スタッフの皆さんもすごく親切で、心があったかくなりました♪ランチのタロイモのハンバーガー美味しかった~!また食べたいです。フラの先生もとっても面白くてハワイ好きにはたまらない、ハワイをしっかり体感できるツアーです。
他のイルカツアーも参加したことあるけど、やっぱりドルフィンアンドユーがダントツ一番と思います。正直、他のイルカのツアーと比べ物にならないくらい、スタッフも内容も質が高いです。
満足いくツアーを求めるなら絶対お勧めです!!!
I had seen the ocean in Hawaii a few times, but I was truly moved to discover such a calm and beautiful place. When I got on the bus, most of the people around me were foreigners, and the explanations from the captain were all in English, which left me feeling confused, thinking, "What should I do? I can't understand!" However, there were Japanese staff members present, and they made sure that Japanese guests were seated together and provided explanations, which made me feel at ease.
The weather was a bit bad and cold, but I was able to play beach volleyball and had a great time. The hamburger for lunch was even more delicious than I expected, and the fact that they grilled the meat on the boat like a BBQ made it even tastier.
At the turtle spot, I was able to see turtles coming up for air and swimming around. There was plenty of time for snorkeling, and I could take photos with an underwater camera, which created wonderful memories.
I think I had a fun time thanks to the cheerful and kind staff, as well as the diverse group of guests from various countries participating together.
ハワイの海は何度か見ていましたが、こんなに穏やかで綺麗な場所があるなんて本当に感動しました。
バスに乗った時はまわりがほぼ外国の方でキャプテンらしき人の説明もすべて英語で『どうしよ~理解できない!』と戸惑ったけれど、きちんと日本人スタッフの方がいて船も日本人はかためて乗せて、説明もしてもらえたので安心しました。
ちょっとお天気が悪く寒かったけど、ビーチバレーもできて思いっきり楽しめました。
ランチのハンバーガーは期待以上に美味しくて、お肉を船の上でBBQなみに焼いてくれてたのが美味しさ倍増でした。
ウミガメスポットでは息継ぎにあがってくるカメや泳いでるかめを見ることができました。
シュノーケルの時間もたっぷりあって、水中カメラで撮影する事も出来たのですごくいい思い出です。
スタッフが明るくて親切だったのと、いろんな国のお客さんが一緒に参加していた事で楽しい時間を過ごせたと思います。
We had a great time with our kids aged 6 and 8 - we could go on all rides - except our 6 year old was not tall enough for a few. Tornado was great - so was the Shaka. Raging River was our favourite family ride. Wave pool was fun too. No lineups - so we went full on for 4 hours. $240 for our family for the 4 hours seemed like a lot though - not including lunch. Nice change of pace from Waikiki though.
As soon as we set sail, we spotted a whale, and the cruise began with us following it. It seems that we are not allowed to follow the same whale for a long time, so after about 30 to 40 minutes, we moved away from that whale to search for another one. However, we couldn't find any more after that, but since the cruise was along Waikiki, the views of Diamond Head and Waikiki were very beautiful.
出港するとすぐにクジラを発見し、それを追う形でクルーズが始まりました。長い時間同じクジラを追うことは禁止されているそうで、30~40分後、そのクジラを離れて別のクジラを探すことに。 ただ、その後は見つけることができませんでしたが、ワイキキに沿ってクルーズだったので、ダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの眺めがとても綺麗でした。
Thank you very much for participating in our cruise. All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.
この度は私共のクルーズにご参加頂き、誠に有難うございました。
皆様のまたのお越しをスタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
I cannot begin to say how much fun I had on this cruise. Not only did we get to see whales, and the captain did a great job of getting as close as he could without disturbing them, but the activities and food on-board made the experience just THAT MUCH BETTER! It was a great experience being able to go to the top deck and view the whales and then head down into the ship for a very yummy buffet lunch. Boy were we full after that :) Cannot wait for next year so we can do this again. Two thumbs WAY WAY up!
The ride of very comfortable and the crew was just fantastic. We were so excited to see the whales!!! Definite must go!
SO MY MOM WAS LIKE WE HAVE TO GO ON A WHALE WATCHING TOUR AND I WAS LIKE WHATEVER MOM BUT OMG I AM SO HAPPY I WENT! AND THE BOAT IS JUST SO SO SO WICKED! I SAT ON THE NET AND UP WITH THE CAPTAIN AND THE FOOD WAS YUMMY TOO. NOT GOING TO FORGET THIS TOUR ANYTIME SOON. THANKS FOR THE RECOMMENDATION GUYS!
i wish i was lucky enough to live in hawaii its so beautiful and everyone is so nice. haha anyway, this was really an experience ... lots of things to do and eat but spent most of the time whale watching with my kids. we had a great time i recommend it to everyone.
one of the things my family wanted to do when we went to hawaii was go whale watching since we live hundreds of miles from the ocean, we figured that this would be a great opportunity and boy were we right! the staff did a great job of keeping everyone on board up to date with what was happening with the whales and the cruise was really smooth too.
food was good, staff was nice, great information, couldn't ask for anything more!
Indeed, we had a very good time - very knowledgeable guide (she's a local and knows all the details), wonderful nature, everything was planned and organized thoroughly, no unpleasant surprises of any kind either with transportation or anything else. I would highly recommend this tour to anybody.
Loved the trip very much. Our tour guide Damien was fantastic. Kauai is very beautiful. Only complaint, they don't pair couples up very well on the flight over. We met another couple in Honolulu before we departed, and none us was scheduled to sit sit with his or her spouse. Other than that, trip was breath-taking.
Loved the sand bar, and the Captain was kind of eccentric. Took us to turtle reef, then snorkeling. Staff was very friendly. Would recommend this adventure.
Since it's far from the city center, it's better to leave your accommodation early to enjoy it. There are many slides that can be enjoyed by both children and adults.
中心部からは遠いので、早めに滞在先を出て行かれる方が楽しめます。子供から大人まで楽しめるスライダーが沢山あります。
I was amazed by the white world as far as the eye could see. Hawaii is famous for surfing, so I was impressed to find such a tranquil sea. The scenery was so fantastical that I felt like I was in a commercial. The hamburger patty for lunch was grilled by the staff on the boat!!! It was not only delicious but also quite filling, which made me satisfied. The fact that non-alcoholic drinks were unlimited felt like a great deal. We snorkeled a little away from the sandbar, and I was moved to hear that the coral reef was alive. This spot had many fish, and the coral was beautiful. I swam with fins, which made it easy to move and felt great. We then changed locations to see sea turtles. My digital camera ran out of battery halfway through, so I had to use a disposable underwater camera. As the guide said, the turtles come up for air, which is quite cute!!! I was worried about whether I could capture that adorable moment, but I managed to take photos of the swimming turtles. I also saw turtles on the beach during a different tour, but since they weren't moving, it was a bit disappointing. I was excited to see swimming turtles up close for the first time.
Also, since there were many non-Japanese tourists, I really felt like I was abroad. The explanations were given in both Japanese and English. Perhaps because I received the explanation in Japanese first, I felt like I could understand the English explanation as well. That aspect was refreshing, and I had an incredibly satisfying experience. I think this tour is enjoyable for everyone, from children to the elderly!
見渡す限り、白い世界で驚きました。
ハワイはサーフィンとかが有名なので、こんなにも静かな海があるのかと感動しました。
本当に自分がCMに出演してるんじゃないかと思えるくらい幻想的な光景に酔ってしまいました。
昼食で食べるハンバーガーのハンバーグも、ボートの上でスタッフがグリルしてました!!!匂いだけじゃなく食べても美味でそこそこボリュームもあり満足。ノンアルコールドリンクなら飲み放題ってとこもお得な感じがしました。サンドバーから少し動いたところでシュノーケルをするのですが、珊瑚礁が生きているときいて感動しました。こちらのポイントは魚も多く、珊瑚礁も美しかったです。フィンを付けて泳いだので、結構進むし気持ちよかったです。またポイントを変えて、ウミガメも見に行きました。デジカメの電池が途中でなくなってしまったので、使い捨ての水中カメラでの撮影となりました。ガイドさんの言うとおり、カメは息継ぎで顔を上げるんです。ちょっと可愛いです!!!その愛らしい瞬間を写せたかどうか心配でしたが、泳いでるカメを写真に残すことができてました。違うツアーで、浜辺にいるカメも見学しましたが、動きがないので微妙でした。今回初めて泳いでいるカメを間近で見ることができたので興奮しました。
あと、ツアー客は日本人じゃない方が多かったせいか、海外に来てるって実感がありました。説明も日本語と英語と分けて行われます。最初に日本語で説明を受けているせいか、英語の説明も理解出来るような気になれました。そんなところも新鮮で良い体験が出来たと超満足しています。お子さんからお年寄りまで、誰でも楽しめるツアーだと思います♪
I participated with my 6-year-old son.
We could see the sea turtles swimming perfectly.
We were able to borrow a snorkeling set for kids, so we had a great time exploring underwater.
The hamburgers grilled on the boat were incredibly delicious.
My little one went back for seconds and was called a glutton.
6歳の息子と二人で参加。
海がめの泳ぐのもばっちり見えました。
子供用のシュノーケリングセットも借りられたので楽しく海中散歩ができました。
船上で焼いてくれたハンバーガーはめちゃうまです。
チビはおかわりしてくいしんぼうと呼ばれてました。
This is my third time in Hawaii, but it was my first time participating in a sandbar tour. I heard it was featured in a TV commercial, and the water was truly clear with a wonderful view. I thought it was sand, but I learned that it was coral that had been eroded, which explains the high transparency.
At first, I practiced snorkeling, and when we moved to the coral reef, I was able to dive in smoothly. However, the water was a bit cold. At the coral reef, I was able to see a lot of fish. The day before, I went on a different tour to see sea turtles on the beach. Naturally, they were not moving, and I was happy to see them up close, but the sea turtles I saw at the sandbar were swimming, which was exciting in a way! The way the turtles surfaced was very impressive, and I was satisfied with the photos I took.
The cheeseburger for lunch was also very delicious, and since the non-alcoholic drinks were all-you-can-drink, I felt it was a good deal. There were really many guests who were not Japanese, which made me feel like I was abroad. I had a great experience chatting in broken English and enjoying the atmosphere.
ハワイは3度目ですがサンドバーのツアーには初めて参加しました。
テレビCMにも使用されたと説明がありましたが、本当に水が透明で素晴らしい光景でした。
砂だと思っていましたが珊瑚が削られて出現したと聞き、そのおかげで透明度が高いのかと納得です。
最初、シュノーケルの練習をしたこともあり、珊瑚礁の方に移動した際も、すんなり臨めました。ただ、ちょっと水が冷たかったです。珊瑚礁の方は魚もたくさん見ることが出来ました。
前日に違うツアーで浜辺にいる海カメを見に行きました。
当然のことながら動きがなく、近くで見れたのは嬉しかったのですが、サンドバーで見た海カメは泳いでいるので、或る意味興奮しました!!!カメが水面に顔を出す仕草がとても印象的で、写真も上手く撮れて満足です。
ランチのチーズバーガーもとても美味しくて、ノンアルコールドリンクは飲み放題だったため、お得に感じました。
本当に日本人以外のお客さんも多く、海外にきているという気分も味わえ、片言の英語で会話をしたりなど、よい体験が出来ました。
This was our second trip to Hawaii, with my 53-year-old husband and me, who is 51. This time, we were really looking forward to the sandbar and our first snorkeling experience.
The pickup location was not our hotel but the lobby of a nearby hotel. We waited for about 20 minutes, which made me a bit anxious, but finally, our guide arrived. When our names were called and we boarded the microbus, I noticed that there were only a few Japanese people, and most of the group was from Australia. The guide, who was very cheerful, was not Japanese but seemed to be a local, and all the instructions and explanations on the way to the harbor were in English. Most of the guides for optional tours in Hawaii are either Japanese or Japanese-speaking Nikkei, so even though we were in a foreign country, I felt excited to finally be immersed in English.
When we arrived at the harbor, another large bus had already arrived, and we joined that group. They had a cute Japanese girl as their guide. On the boat, there were about 40 people, roughly half Japanese and half from other countries. With the captain and three staff members, we set off. We received various instructions, including how to use the snorkeling gear, in both Japanese and English as we arrived at the sandbar.
Unfortunately, even at the most exciting spot, the water was only about 20 centimeters deep, and it didn’t look like the pictures I had seen. However, even in the deeper areas, the water was only up to my waist or chest. We practiced snorkeling for about an hour, played beach volleyball, and everyone seemed to be having a great time. Of course, even small children were perfectly fine; you could stand in the middle of the ocean. It was amazing.
What impressed me next was the big hamburger made with patties grilled by the captain on the deck. It was very delicious.
Unfortunately, during the actual snorkeling after we moved to another spot, I couldn’t muster the courage and just watched everyone swimming from the boat, enjoying the scenery. Even so, it felt wonderful and was a lot of fun. Next time, I will definitely challenge myself to try snorkeling.
53歳の夫と51歳の私の2回目のハワイ。今回はサンドバーと初シュノーケルをとても楽しみにしていました。
お迎え場所は宿泊しているホテルではなく、近くのホテルのロビー。20分程待たされ少々不安ではありましたが、やっとガイドさんが到着。名前を呼ばれて、マイクロバスに乗り込むと、日本人らしき人は少しで、殆どがオーストラリアの方でした。とても愉快なガイドさんも日本人ではなく地元の方のようで、港までの案内も説明もオール英語。ハワイでのオプショナルツアーのガイドさんは殆どが日本語の喋れる日系の方か日本人ですよね。異国アメリカに来ているのに、英語に触れる機会が少ない中、私はやっと外国に来た感じがしてワクワクしました。
港に着くと、もう一台の大きなバスが先に到着していて合流。そちらの方にはカワイイ日本人の女の子のガイドさんでした。ボートには日本人と他の国の方がだいたい半々で、全員で40人位でしたでしょうか。ボートを運転する船長さん?とスタッフ3人で出発。日本語と英語に分かれて、シュノーケルの使い方を含むいろいろな説明を聞きながらサンドバーに到着。
あいにく一番盛り上がっている所でも海面の下20センチ位で、写真で見たような感じではなかったけれど、その周辺は深い所でも小柄な私の腰や胸辺り。約1時間シュノーケルの練習をしたり、ビーチバレーをしたり、みなさんとても楽しそうでした。もちろん小さな子供さんもぜんぜん大丈夫です。海のど真ん中で足が着くんですよ。感動です。
私がその次に感動したのは、デッキで船長さんが焼いてくれたパティを挟んでの大きなハンバーガー。とてもおいしかったです。
残念ながら、その後移動してからの本番のシュノーケルは、勇気が出なくて、船上から泳いでいるみんなの楽しそうな風景を眺めていました。それでもとっても気持ちが良く、楽しかった。次回は必ずシュノーケル挑戦します。
When I first signed up for this tour, I didn't really know what to expect, but I learned that a sandbar is a shallow area formed by waves eroding coral out in the ocean. It was quite mysterious to see a white sandy beach floating in the middle of the sea, but it was very beautiful. We played beach volleyball on the sandy beach in the middle of the ocean, walked around, and practiced snorkeling. I think it's a unique experience that you can't have often. After that, we went turtle watching from the boat and snorkeled in another location, making it a three-in-one experience. We also had homemade hamburgers for lunch on the boat, which were very delicious. I think this tour is highly recommended for those who are snorkeling for the first time or have a short stay.
最初このツアーに申し込んだときは、どんなツアーかよくわからないで参加していたのですが、サンドバーとは海の沖に波でサンゴが削られてできた浅瀬だそうです。白浜が海の真ん中にぽっかりうかびあがっているのはとても不思議は感じでしたが、とてもきれいでした。海の真ん中の砂浜でビーチバレーをしたり、歩きまわってみたり、シュノーケリングの練習をしたり。なかなかできない体験だと思います。そのあとは船の上からカメウォッチングをし、別の場所でシュノーケリングをしたり、一度で3度おいしい感じです。ランチも手作りハンバーグを船上で食べ、とてもおいしかったです。初めてシュノーケリングをされる方や、滞在が短い方にはお勧めのツアーだと思います。
I have visited Hawaii several times, but this was my first time going to the sandbar. I was very surprised to find a shallow sandy beach in just a part of the offshore area. I learned that it was a shallow area formed by coral being eroded by the waves, and it was very mystical. I heard it is also used in commercials in Japan. It was delicious to make my own hamburger from a grilled patty on the boat. Watching sea turtles from the boat and snorkeling for quite a long time was also a lot of fun. Since you can enjoy various activities at once, I think it's great for those visiting Hawaii for a short period.
ハワイには何度か訪れていますが、今回初めてサンドバーへいきました。沖合の一部だけ浅瀬の砂浜があるのにはとても驚きました。波でサンゴが削られて出現した浅瀬とのことですが、とても神秘的でした。日本のコマーシャルでも使われているとのことです。船の上で焼いたハンバーグを自分でハンバーガにして食べたのはとてもおいしかったです。船上からウミガメをウォッチングしたり、シュノーケリングもかなり長い時間できたので、とても楽しかったです。一度にいろいろ楽しめるので、短期間でハワイを訪れる方にはよいと思います。
We went to Hawaii for our honeymoon, and I thought if we're going to the ocean, it should be a beautiful place! So, we joined this monitor tour. The weather was great, and the sea was incredibly beautiful with scenery I had never seen before, which was truly moving.
However, when we arrived at the shallow area, it seemed to be slightly high tide, so the sandbar wasn't visible. But the water was about waist-deep, so we played beach volleyball together without worrying about the country we were in. It was a rare experience to play beach volleyball in the ocean! I had so much fun.
It was also great to see fish while snorkeling. The cheeseburger we had for lunch in the middle of the sea was exceptional! I was a bit disappointed that I could only see a turtle swimming from a distance. However, it was so much more beautiful than Waikiki Beach, so if I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to go back!
ハネムーンでハワイに行き、海に行くなら綺麗なところで!と思い、こちらのモニターツアーに参加しました。
天気も良くてすごく海が綺麗で今まで見たことない景色で感動しました☆
ただ、浅瀬に到着したんですが、微妙に満潮だったみたいでサンドバーは浮かび上がってませんでした。。
でも、腰ぐらいの高さだったので、コートをはって国なんか関係なくみんなでバレーをしました♬
海の中でビーチバレーするなんて貴重な体験でした!
すごく楽しかったです♬
シュノーケルでも魚が普通に見れて良かったです☆
ランチのチーズバーガーも海の真ん中で食べれて格別でした!
海がめは遠目に泳いでるのが少し見えただけだったのでちょっと残念でしたが・・。
ワイキキビーチとは比べ物にならないくらい綺麗だったので次ハワイに行くことがあったらまた行きたいです☆
I participated because I wanted to see the sand beach. There really is a sand beach! The water suddenly became shallow, and I experienced the wonders of nature.
I enjoyed snorkeling in the coral reef area, turtle watching, and cruising, which allowed me to fully enjoy the sea.
The hamburger I had on the boat was also delicious.
I felt that having about 100 people on two boats was a bit too crowded.
サンドビーチを見てみたくて、参加しました。
本当にサンドビーチってあるんですね。いきなり海が浅くなっていて、自然の不思議さを体感さきました。
さんご礁地域でのシュノーケリング、亀ウォッチング、クルージングと、海を満喫できて楽しかったです。
船上で食べたハンバーガーもおいしかったです。
2艘の船で約100人というのは、ちょっと人が多すぎだと感じました。
I was impressed by the sandbar, which was only knee-deep and located in the middle of the ocean, and it was beautiful! My wife, who was snorkeling for the first time during the upcoming sea turtle watching, was a bit anxious at first, but it seemed she really enjoyed practicing snorkeling in the shallow, beautiful sandbar and the sparkling white sand underwater. Although it wasn't during our time, there are times when the sandbar appears like a path from the seabed due to the tides. I definitely want to walk that path the next time we participate.
After enjoying the sandbar, we had lunch with hamburgers that the captain grilled, and we made our own burgers with our favorite toppings. They were quite filling and satisfying even for men! Alcohol was available for purchase, but it was convenient that soft drinks were free to drink at any time.
We then moved to the sea turtle point and started watching. The fish (tropical fish?) were more noticeable than the sea turtles, but the sight of the fish swimming right in front of us was stunning! I would like to participate again the next time I go to Hawaii.
海の真ん中に膝までくらいの深さしかない、しかも綺麗な海、サンドバーに感動しました!
後に控えるウミガメウォッチングでのシュノーケリングが初体験の妻は、はじめ少々不安気味でしたがこの浅い綺麗なサンドバーでシュノーケルを練習し水中で白く光る砂浜を存分に楽しんでいたようです。私たちの参加した時間ではありませんでしたが、潮の満ち引きの関係で砂浜が一本の道のように海底から現れる時間帯もあるようです。次回参加する際はぜひその道を歩いてみたいものです。
サンドバーを満喫した後、昼食にはキャプテンが焼いてくれたハンバーグで自分たちで好きな具材を入れてハンバーガーを作りました。なかなかボリュームがあり男性でも満足できました!アルコールは有料でしたが、ソフトドリンクはいつでも飲み放題だったのも便利でした。
その後ウミガメポイントに移動し、ウォッチング開始。ウミガメより魚(熱帯魚?)の方が目立っていましたが、目の前に泳ぐ魚群が圧巻でした!!
次にハワイに行く際にも参加したいと思いました。
There was indeed a place where you can walk in knee-deep water in the middle of the ocean. We had time to play beach volleyball and practice snorkeling, and during that time, they were grilling hamburger patties on the boat.
We had lunch on the boat while moving to the sea turtle watching spot, where we each took bread, hamburgers, fruits, and salad in an assembly line.
After that, we went snorkeling in deeper waters. They provided life jackets, snorkeling gear, and fins, so everyone could swim once they were equipped.
We had about an hour to play. They fed the fish, so there were many fish nearby.
海の真ん中で膝くらいの水面で歩ける場所が本当にありました。
ビーチバレーやシュノーケリング練習をする時間があって、その間に船の上ではハンバーガーの肉を焼いてくれていました。
流れ作業で各自パン、ハンバーガー、フルーツ、サラダを取って海ガメウオッチングまで移動している間に船上でランチをします。
その後深い海のところでシュノーケリングです。
ライフジャケット、シュノーケリング用具、足ひれを貸してくれるのでそれぞれつけた人から泳いでいけます。
1時間ほど遊ぶ時間があります。
餌付けをしてくれるので近くに魚がたくさんいました。
I wanted to see the sandbar at least once, so I joined this tour. During the cruise, the staff provided interesting explanations about how the sandbar was formed, which increased my enjoyment. The activities at the sandbar, snorkeling in the coral reef area, and watching the fish while floating were all uniquely enjoyable experiences that you can only have in Hawaii. The lunch we had on the boat (hamburger) was simple but very delicious, and I was extremely satisfied. I had a very fun day.
サンドバーを一度見てみたいと思い、このツアーに参加しました。
クルーズ中には、サンドバーがなぜ出来たのかなど、興味深い説明がスタッフからあり、楽しみが倍増しました。
サンドバーでの海遊び、さんご礁エリアでのシュノーケリング、ぷかぷかと泳ぐウォッチング、すべてがハワイならではの楽しさで、良かったです。
船の上で食べたランチ(ハンバーガー)もシンプルだけどとてもおいしくて大満足でした。
とても楽しい1日を過ごせました。
A fantastic pod of dolphins appeared right nearby, and I was so excited! I was thrilled to see multiple dolphin spins right in front of me, along with a baby dolphin, and I even got to hear the dolphins' "squeaks." I was completely satisfied! In addition to the dolphins, there were sea turtles and beautiful fish, and in the distance, I could see whales swimming—what an emotional experience! I truly had a wonderful time. The staff were all bright, kind, and full of service spirit! They even performed hula dancing and played the ukulele.
最高なイルカの群れがすぐ近くに現れ、大興奮!
目の前繰り広げられる何回ものイルカのスピンジャンプ、イルカの赤ちゃん、終いには「キューキュー」というイルカの声まで聞け大満足でした!
イルカの他にもウミガメやきれいな魚達、さらに遠くにはクジラも泳いでおり感動の連続!本当に幸せな一時を過ごすことができました。
スタッフも皆さん明るく優しくサービス精神旺盛!フラダンスやウクレレを披露してくれました。
Waking up early was worth it! I had a truly wonderful experience. After praying and throwing flowers into the sea, we set off! Dolphins appeared right away. During snorkeling, they swam close enough to reach out and even we got to see a baby dolphin. The handmade burgers made on the boat were also fantastic. Onboard, we were able to witness the rare male hula performed by a local boy. It was a tour that satisfied me from start to finish. I definitely want to participate again!
早起きした甲斐がありました!とても素晴らしい体験ができました。
お祈りをして花を海の投げ入れてから出発!すぐにイルカが現れてくれました。
シュノーケルの時も手の届きそうな距離を泳いでいましたし、いるかの赤ちゃんまで見る事ができました。船上で作る手作りハンバーガーも最高でした。船上ではロコボーイの珍しい男性フラを拝見することが出来ました。最初から最後まで大満足させてくれるツアーでした。また是非参加したいです。
I was worried that I wouldn't be able to enjoy myself since I can't swim. I wondered if I would be able to see dolphins properly from the boat.
However! I was able to encounter dolphins clearly from the boat, and even a pod of them!
I was so moved and healed by seeing dolphins for the first time.
Although I couldn't dive into the water, I had a fulfilling time seeing dolphins up close, kayaking, enjoying hamburgers made by the captain on board, and watching the crew dance the hula and play the ukulele. It was a tour that allowed even non-swimmers to fully enjoy the Hawaiian sea.
All the staff were very cheerful and friendly! I was able to create the best memories in Hawaii. Thank you!
私は泳ぐことができなく、楽しめるのかな?船の上からでもちゃんとイルカが見れるのかな?と心配でした。
しかし!船の上からでもきちんとイルカに出会う事ができました。しかもイルカの群れ!
初めて見るイルカにとっても感動し、癒されました。
海中に潜ることはできませんでしたが、間近でイルカの群れを見れたり、カヤックにのったり、キャプテンが船上でハンバーガーを作ってくれたり、クルーの人達がフラを踊ったり、ウクレレを弾いてくれたりととても充実した時間を送ることができました。泳げない人でも十分にハワイの海を楽しめるツアーでした。
スタッフの人皆とても明るくてフレンドリー!ハワイでの最高の思い出を作ることができました。ありがとうございます。
The pool is available in both Japan and Guam, but this pool is truly on par with Hawaii. I lost track of time. The waves in the wave pool are incredible, and the slide is just amazing—both the kids and moms were left in awe. I will definitely join again when I come back to Hawaii.
プールは日本にもグアムにもありますが、ここのプールはさずがハワイ級。時間がたつのを忘れてしまいました。波がくるプールの波も半端じゃないし、スライダーは凄いの一言で子供もママも放心状態になっていました。またハワイに来たときには参加します。
I was really anxious about snorkeling since I can't swim at all, but they provided fins and life jackets, and you can practice snorkeling in the shallow waters of the sandbar, so I recommend it for beginners!
They communicated in Japanese, which made the explanations easy to understand, and it was beautiful to take a walk in the middle of the ocean where you could stand!
The schedule was as follows: sandbar (photo opportunities, snorkeling practice) → lunch on the boat → turtle watching → snorkeling.
There was a shallow area about knee-deep right in the middle of the ocean. It was a bit disappointing that the sun wasn't very strong and it was cloudy that day, but I was satisfied because I wanted to visit the sandbar!
While we were practicing snorkeling, they were preparing lunch by grilling hamburgers on the boat. We moved while enjoying fruits, hamburgers, and drinks with a view of the ocean, heading to the turtle watching point.
We saw about 5-6 large turtles swimming in a circle! They occasionally popped their heads up, and it’s rare to see so many at once.
After that, we started snorkeling in earnest. They fed the fish, so there were plenty around the boat! The coral reefs were beautiful, and the hour went by in no time.
I recommend bringing an underwater camera. There are lots of blue and yellow fish.
I want to participate again!
まったく泳げないのでシュノーケリングに不安があったけれど、フィンやライフジャケットもちゃんと用意されているし、サンドバーの浅瀬で事前にシュノーケルの練習も出来るので初めての人にもオススメです☆
日本語で対応してくれたので、説明もわかりやすいし、海の真ん中で足が着くところをお散歩できてキレイなところでした!
スケジュールとしては、サンドバー(写真撮影、シュノーケル練習)→船上ランチ→海がめウオッチング→シュノーケルの順番でした。
膝くらいの浅瀬のところが本当に海の真ん中にありました。
当日はそんなに日差しが強くなく曇りがちだったのがちょっと残念でしたが、サンドバーに行ってみたかったので満足です♪
シュノーケルの練習をしている間に船上ではハンバーガーを焼いてランチの準備をしてくれていました。
フルーツ、ハンバーガー、飲み物を海を眺めながら食べつつ移動し、海がめウオッチングポイントまで。
大きな海がめが5-6ひき(?)輪になって泳いでいました!! たまに顔を出してくれて、こんなにたくさん見れるのは珍しいそうです。
その後、本格的にシュノーケル開始です。
餌付けをしてくれるので船の周りはお魚がたくさん!!
さんご礁もきれいであっという間の1時間でした。
水中カメラを持っていくことをオススメします。
青や黄色のお魚がたくさんいます。
また参加したいです!
My first time at the Kaneohe Bay sandbar.
I was truly surprised by its beauty, which exceeded my expectations!
On the day of the visit, I was a bit worried about the clouds affecting the view, but when we arrived at the sandbar, it was sunny with a stunning marine blue sea! The contrast between the deep and shallow waters was incredibly beautiful. You won't see a view like this anywhere else.
At the sandbar, we had about an hour of free time to play beach volleyball, practice snorkeling, take photos, and relax. I had my camera with me, and the Japanese staff took many posed commemorative photos for me! I brought a digital camera that can be used underwater, but I recommend using an underwater camera here! You can capture some really great photos.
After that, we enjoyed hamburgers on the boat. These were large and delicious hamburgers. Soft drinks were available in unlimited quantities. Alcohol (beer, wine) is available for an additional charge.
Then we moved away from the sandbar for some sea turtle watching. We could see many sea turtles from the boat. On this day, we were also able to see a manta ray, which is quite rare!
Finally, we went snorkeling in an area with coral. I was truly amazed here!
As soon as I dove in, there was a sea turtle right in front of me! I never expected to encounter a sea turtle so close, and I was really moved. There were many more fish here than at Hanauma Bay, and I was never bored swimming around.
If you're going to Oahu, I think this tour is a must-do at least once. The staff's excellent service was also wonderful. It truly became a fantastic memory.
初めてのカネオヘ湾のサンドバー。
本当に想像以上の綺麗さにびっくりしました!
当日少し雲がかかっていて綺麗に見えるか心配だったのですが、サンドバーに到着した時は晴天で本当にマリンブルーの海!深い海と浅い海の色の変わり目が素晴らしく綺麗です。こんな景色は他では見れません。
サンドバーではビーチバレーをしたりシュノーケル練習、写真撮影などと各自自由時間を一時間ほどとってくれてゆったりできます。私はカメラを持っていたら、日本人スタッフの方が記念撮影をポーズ指定で沢山撮ってくれました♪
私は水中でも使用可能なデジタルカメラを持っていったのですが、ここでは水中カメラお勧めです!本当にいい写真が沢山撮れます。
その後は船上でハンバーガーをいただきました。
これも大きいハンバーガー美味しかったです。
ソフトドリンクは何杯でもいただけます。
お酒(ビール、ワイン)は有料です。
そしてサンドバーから離れて海ガメウォッチング。
沢山海ガメが船上から見ることができます。
この日はなかなか見ることができないマンター?
も見ることができました。
最後に珊瑚のあるところでシュノーケリング。
ここで本当にびっくりすることが!!!!
なんと、潜った瞬間、目の前に海ガメがいたのです!!
まさかこんな目の前で海ガメに遭遇すると思わなかったので本当に感動しました。
お魚はハナウマ湾よりもずっと沢山いて泳いでいて全く飽きませんでした。
オアフ島に行くのであればこのツアーは必ず一度は行った方がいいと思います。
スタッフの対応の良さもとても素晴らしかったです。本当に素敵な思い出になりました。
