Oahu
The shuttle bus took about 45 minutes to the boat dock, and the boat ride was around 10 minutes. There were some waves, but I didn't feel seasick at all. More than that, the scenery around was amazing!
It was early February, but the weather was nice, and while the sun was out, it felt like midsummer. It was great for taking photos! When the sun went behind the clouds, it felt a bit chilly. The sea was somewhat cold (laughs), and I shivered a bit after snorkeling, but as long as I was in the sun, it was totally fine! They also provided warm drinks.
I was able to enjoy everything: the sandbar, snorkeling, SUP, and lunch. I saw five turtles, which felt like five times the happiness! The Japanese guide joked that the validity period is one year, so come back again. It was really fun (^ ^).
I truly think it was an activity worth experiencing (^ ^).
送迎バスで船乗り場まで約45分程移動し、船は10分程度。波は多少ありましたが船酔いは全く気になりませんでした。それより周りの景色が最高!
2月頭でしたが天気が良く、太陽が出る間は真夏のようでした。写真映えもします(^ ^)太陽が隠れると肌寒い感じはしました。海はやや冷たいです(笑)シュノーケルの後は震えましたが太陽に当たれば全然平気!温かいドリンクも出してもらえました。
サンドバー、シュノーケル、SUP、ランチ全て楽しむことができました。亀は5匹見れたので5回分の幸せ、有効期限は1年なのでまた来てねとジョークを交えた日本人ガイドの方、面白かったです(^ ^)
本当に体験して良かったと思えるアクティビティーです(^ ^)
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Thank you very much for joining us. Even though it's Hawaii, the sea temperature in February can be quite cold. However, the scenery looks clearer in winter! The views of the mountains, ocean, and marine life from the sandbar are truly beautiful. We all sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。ハワイとはいえ、やはり二月の海水温は冷たくなりますよね。でも、景色は冬の方が澄んで見えるんですよ!!サンドバーから眺める山、海、生き物などの景色は、本当に綺麗ですよね。またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
The weather was nice, and we were able to see a big rainbow along the way! The whales didn't show themselves much, but they did blow water and revealed their large bodies above the surface! It was moving! They continued to blow water, but they didn't show themselves much after that; however, this time they showed their big tails! It seemed a bit difficult to see them from the front like in the advertisements, but I'm glad I woke up early to participate! For breakfast, there were bread, sausage, scrambled eggs, rice, and several types of fruit.
天気も良くて途中大きな虹も見ることが出来ました!肝心のクジラはなかなか姿を見せてくれなかったけど、潮を吹いて大きな体を水面から見せてくれました!感動しました!その後も潮を吹くけどなかなか姿は見せてくれませんでしたが、今度は大きな尾っぽを見せてくれました!広告になっていたような頭から姿を見るのはちょっと難しそうですが、早起きして参加してよかったです!朝ごはんはパン、ソーセージ、スクランブルエッグ、ライス、フルーツ数種類ありました。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. It's truly unfortunate that you weren't able to see a whale in its entirety. However, I hope you had the opportunity to witness it spouting several times, making your cruise worthwhile. We would love for you to join us again when you visit Hawaii in the winter.
この度はスターオフホノルルをご利用いただきありがとうございました。クジラを丸ごとご覧にできなかったこと、本当に残念でしたね。でも、潮を吹くところを何度か遭遇されて様で、クルーズにいらしたかいがあったことを願っております。また、冬の時期にハワイにお越しになる際には、ぜひ再乗船していただきたいと思います。
First of all, I was surprised by the view from the bus! The sight of the large slides lined up was so exciting! The lockers are paid, and although there are supposed to be coupons, I couldn't find them. The prices are a bit high at $13 for small and $18 for large, but the convenience of being able to unlock them multiple times was great!
It was a Sunday at the pool, but there were hardly any lines, so I was able to smoothly enjoy the slides I liked! In particular, the wave pool was incomparable to those in Japan, with large waves repeatedly crashing in, which was so much fun! Also, it was very appealing that you could ride the slides while taking photos with a GoPro or smartphone!
We chose a plan with unlimited soft drinks, and we could select from about six types of juice! I really appreciated that plan. Additionally, the lazy river was quite the opposite of those in Japan and was very calm. The waves were so gentle that I could hardly tell if I was being carried along. However, the pink floaties were Instagram-worthy, and there was a surprise waterfall towards the end that was thrilling!
If you have time to spare, I think it's worth stopping by! Also, for all slides except one, you have to carry your own floaties, so make sure to choose the right floatie for the slide before climbing! Check before you go up the stairs! If you're unsure, ask the lifeguards; they are all very kind!
The restrooms were clean, and the changing rooms and shower rooms were well-equipped, but there were no hooks to hang bags in the changing room, so I think it would be even more convenient if there were hooks!
まず、バスから見た光景にびっくり!!
大きなスライダーがずらりと並ぶ景色に胸がワクワクしました!
ロッカーは有料で、クーポンはあるらしいのですが見つからず、小$13・大$18となかなか高めの設定ですが、何度も開錠可能な所は便利でした!
プールは日曜日だったのですが、ほとんど並ぶことなく、スイスイと好きなスライダーに乗ってエンジョイすることができました!!
特に、波のプールは日本とは比べものにならず、大きな波が何度も繰り返し立ち込めてきて、とっても楽しかったです!!また、スライダーに乗る際にはGoProやスマホで撮影しながら乗れるところもとても魅力的でした!!!
私たちは、ソフトドリンク飲み放題のプランで、6種類ほどのジュースが選べました!良いプランだとしみじみ…
あと、流れるプールはこれまた日本とは真逆で、とても静かでした。流されているのか分からないくらい穏やかな波でした。ただ、ピンク色の浮き輪がインスタ映えし、最後らへんには滝のサプライズがあり興奮しました!!
時間に余裕がある方は、寄っても良いとは思います!
そして、1つのスライダー以外は全て、自分で浮き輪を運ばなければならないので、乗る前には必ずスライダーに合った浮き輪を選んで登りましょう!!階段に登る前に要チェック!!!分からない場合は監視員さんに聞きましょう!とっても優しい方ばかりです!!
トイレは清潔で、更衣室やシャワールームも充実していましたが、更衣室にカバンなどを掛けられるフックがなかったので、フックがあればさらに便利だと思いました!!
The bus driver and the boat staff were all kind and it was really great. I enjoyed both the sandbar and snorkeling. I was really happy to see two turtles. We split into two groups for snorkeling, and while waiting for one group, we not only had lunch but also enjoyed stand-up paddleboarding. During our exploration of Kailua, I had pancakes and enjoyed shopping. The bus was comfortable too, so it was very good!
バスの運転手さん、船のスタッフさん、みんな親切でとてもよかったです。
サンドバーもシュノーケリングも楽しめました。亀を2匹見れたので、ほんとうによかったです。二つのグループに別れてシュノーケリングを行うのですが、片方のグループを待ってる間昼ご飯を食べるだけではなく、サップも楽しむことができました。
カイルア散策は、ホットケーキ食べ、ショッピングを楽しみました。
バスの中も快適だったので、とても良かったです!
Aloha! This is the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Thank you very much for participating this time. We are very happy to hear that you also joined the Kailua tour and enjoyed the tour throughout the day. We all sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。カイルアツアーにもご参加頂けたようで、一日通してツアーを楽しんで頂き、とても嬉しく思います。またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I participated with my 7-year-old child. At the movie filming locations, the Japanese-speaking driver provided fun explanations while we toured the sites. The scenery was wonderful. Since I had only been around Waikiki before, I realized once again that this is also Hawaii.
It started to rain, and we wore raincoats. The jungle exploration was entirely in English. Unfortunately, my English isn't great, so I couldn't understand the explanations, but my child said this was the most fun part. It seemed like they enjoyed the bumpy ride.
The other activity also had explanations in Japanese after the English ones, which made me feel at ease participating. My child seemed to tire out and was a bit less energetic. Overall, everywhere you looked, there were magnificent and wild views, and it was a lot of fun.
7歳の子どもと参加しました。
映画ロケ地では日本語のドライバーさんが楽しく説明しながらロケ地めぐり。そしてその風景は素晴らしかったです。これまでワイキキ周辺しか行ったことがなかったので、これもハワイなんだなと改めて認識しました。
途中雨が降ってきてカッパ?を着ながら。
ジャングル探検はオール英語でした。残念ながら英語がダメなので説明がわかりませんでしたが、子どもはここが一番楽しかったと言ってました。車が揺れるのが良かったようです。
もう一つのアクティビティも英語の後に日本語で説明があり、安心して参加しました。子どもは疲れたのかトーンダウンしていましたが。
全体的にどこを切り取っても雄大な景色でワイルドで、楽しかったです。
There are plenty of events on the ship, and the staff really knows how to entertain! You can tell they are putting in their all to make it enjoyable. I definitely want to go on this tour again!
船の中ではイベントが盛り沢山で、スタッフの方々がとにかく楽しませてくれる!
全力で楽しませてくれてるのがわかります。
また絶対に行きたいツアーです!
Thank you for your message. Please come back to visit us again. Both the staff and the dolphins are looking forward to seeing you!
書き込みありがとうございます。是非また遊びにいらしてください。スタッフもイルカもお待ちしています!
When we actually started to see a little bit of activity. They turned back to port. Only saw a few blows and a little bit of the side of a whale. A big disappointment!! That should of been considered a no show and whale watch guarantee should have been applied
We had a wonderful time on our whale watching excursion! We were picked up by the bus - it was early/on-time. We made it to the dock, got our picture taken (didn't buy it, it was too pricey!), then on to the boat. The boat was huge and there was plenty of seating inside and on the top deck. We opted out of lunch, which I think was for the best since me and my husband didn't feel that great on the ride out in the open water. But it did look nice and drinks were available for purchase. Once we got out on the water, we started seeing some whale blows and headed more in that direction. We then saw dolphins swimming next to our boat which was just as exciting as seeing the whale! But what was even cooler was once we got closer to the whale, marine biologist said that what we were seeing was the dolphins were playing with the whale, which he hadn't seen in 4 years! He was very informative. We also enjoyed some live music which seemed the bring the whales and dolphins around more! We probably saw about eight whales in all, ten dolphins and one sea turtle. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, aside from feeling a little seasick.
Aloha! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your whale watch cruise with us! Thank you very much for sharing your wonderful experience. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you aboard again soon. Mahalo and a hui hou (until next time)!
On January 30th, I had high hopes for the season, but unfortunately, I didn't see any whales. I didn't even see any dolphins. The weather was nice, and the cruise itself was good. If you don't see anything, it would be nice to have an option for the next ticket, as some people can go and some cannot, such as offering a "compensation gift."
1/30、時期的にも期待していたが、クジラは残念ながら見られなかった。イルカすら見られなかった。
天気がよく、クルーズ自体は良かった。
見られなかった場合の次の乗船券は行ける人と行けない人がいるので、選択制で「お詫びの品をあげる」等あると良いと思う。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly sorry that the whales did not appear. We will share your valuable feedback regarding "offering a token of apology" with our staff and use it as a reference for future improvements. Thank you once again for your patronage.
この度は、スターオフホノルルをご利用いただきありがとうございました。クジラが姿をあらわさず、心より残念に感じております。「お詫びの品をあげる」の貴重なご意見は、スタッフ一同と共有させて頂き、今後の改善の参考にいたします。今回は、本当にありがとうございました。
I was able to see whales from quite a distance. The view of Diamond Head from the ocean was also great, and you can enjoy it even alone. The food was a bit disappointing, so it might be better to eat at the hotel.
かなり遠くですが、クジラ見れました。海から眺めるダイヤモンドヘッドも良かったし、一人でも楽しめます。
食事はちょっといまいちなので、ホテルで済ませた方がいいかも。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly sorry that you were unable to see the whales clearly. We will share your valuable feedback regarding the meal with our staff and use it for future improvements. Thank you very much once again.
この度は、スターオフホノルルをご利用いただきありがとうございました。はっきりとクジラをご覧になれなかった事は、残念でなりません。食事に関する貴重なご意見は、スタッフ一同と共有し、今後の改善の役にたたせて頂きます。今回は本当にありがとうございました。
I participated in the morning.
The weather was a bit bad at first, but it gradually cleared up.
The sandbar wasn't out, and the water came up to my waist, but I was able to see sea turtles up close while snorkeling.
I had fun playing with stand-up paddleboarding and canoeing, and the staff really got everyone excited.
It's nice that we could return to the hotel in the early afternoon.
午前に参加
少し天気が悪かったですが、だんだん晴れてきました
サンドバーは出ておらず腰まで水がきましたが、
シュノーケリングでは間近にホヌを見ることができました
サップやカヌーで遊んだり、スタッフさんが色々盛り上げてくれて楽しかったです
昼過ぎにはホテルに帰れるのがいいですね
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise Beach Tour. Thank you very much for participating. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed various activities and were able to see some turtles! The morning tour is recommended for customers who want to make the most of their time, as it leaves the afternoon free. We look forward to welcoming you back again!
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。色々なアクティビティーを楽しんでいただけたようで、嬉しく思います。カメさんにも会えたようで、良かったです!午前中のツアーは午後が空くので、時間を有効に使いたいお客様にもおすすめです!!またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
Unfortunately, I couldn't see any whales, but I was able to enjoy the view of Diamond Head from the sea and the streets of Waikiki, making for a delightful cruising experience.
I also received a free ticket for the next time, so if I have the time, I will try again. By the way, I was able to see dolphins.
残念ながらクジラは見れなかったのですが
海からのダイアモンドヘッド、ワイキキの街並み
を見る事ができ、クルージングの楽しみが味わえる内容です。
次回無料のチケットもいただけ、時間があれば次回チャレンジしてみます。
ちなみにイルカは見る事ができました。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly sorry that the whales did not appear. Nonetheless, we are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the cruise. We hope you can use your complimentary ticket to join us again this season. Thank you very much.
この度は、スターオフホノルルをご利用いただきありがとうございました。クジラが姿を現さずに、本当に残念に思います。それでも、クルーズを楽しんでいただき、心より嬉しく感じております。無料チケットをご利用していただき、今シーズン中に再乗船していただけることを願っております。本当にありがとうございました。
I think it's a good idea to check the tide levels in the morning and afternoon of the available days and book at the best timing. The weather is hard to predict, but on the day I participated, it was cloudy at first, but gradually cleared up, and it felt really nice. The water was shallow enough to reach my ankles. I was also able to see sea turtles. It was a lot of fun!
潮位は、参加可能な日の午前、午後、で調べてベストのタイミングで申し込まれると良いと思います。
天気はなんとも予想できませんが、私が参加した日は雲っていましたがだんだんと晴れ間が出てきまして、とても気持ちが良かったです。
一番浅いところでくるぶしくらいまで下がりました。
海ガメも見ることができました。
とても楽しかったです!
Aloha! This is the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour. You even got to see a turtle!! We all sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。ツアーを楽しんでいただけたようで、嬉しく思います。カメさんにも会えたんですね!!またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
This time, we participated as three families, and everyone from the children to the elderly had a great time, so I'm really glad we went. It was the best day ever! 😊
今回は家族三世帯で参加させてもらったが、子供から年配まで楽しんで貰えたので行って本当に良かった。最高の1日を送れた(^^)
Before departing from Japan, the weather forecast predicted cloudy rain, but it turned out to be sunny, as we say in Japan. The pick-up was smooth, and after boarding, we had a light snack while the captain gave an explanation. Then we had free time and went to the upper deck. After about 20 minutes, the captain announced that we were heading towards 1 o'clock, and we could see the spouting. After that, every 20 minutes or so, we were able to see the spouting and tails, and I was able to take photos with a telephoto lens. On the way back, we were also lucky enough to see dolphins. The boat accommodated 1,500 people, and I didn't feel much rocking, so it was comfortable. The upper deck can be quite windy and chilly, so having a windbreaker would be a good idea.
日本出発前は、曇り雨予報でしたが、結局は、日本でいう晴れでした。送迎もスムーズで、乗船後、軽食を採りながら船長の説明があった後、フリーとなり、屋上デッキへ。20分くらいして船長から1時の方向とアナウンスがあり、潮吹きが見えました。その後も20分くらい置きに、潮吹き、尻尾を見ることができ、望遠レンズで写真も撮れました。帰りには、イルカも見ることが出来、ラッキーでした。船も1500人乗りで、揺れもそんなに感じること無く快適でした。屋上は、風が強く肌寒いので、ウインドブレーカーがあるといいです。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly pleased to hear that you enjoyed the cruise and that the weather was nice. We hope to welcome you back on board during your next visit to Hawaii, and our entire staff will continue to strive for improvements. Thank you once again for this opportunity.
この度は、スターオフホノルルをご利用いただきありがとうございました。天気も良く、クルーズを楽しんで頂けた様で、心より嬉しく感じております。また、ハワイにお越しの際に、再乗船していただけるのを願いながらい、スタッフ一同より改善に向け努力を続けてまいります。今回は、本当にありがとうございました。
Dinner great waitress very overwhelmed. Service so so. Entertainment great as well
Our guide Lani was very fun and knowledgeable. She has worked there food 28yrs. We were able to see a lot of areas where films as TV shows were shot. We highly recommend it.
My husband and I really enjoyed our trip. we were able to move around at our leisure and spend and much or as little time on each exhibit. Everyone in your family should experience Pearl Harbor. it truly does give you a new perspective and appreciation for those that serve our country protecting us!!
This has been on my bucket list for quite some time and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! The crew is so nice and made everyone feel so comfortable and were very knowledgeable. They only take up to 6 people so you never even have to get out of the cage until the tour is over if you don't want to! We were in there for about 45 minutes getting to see several sharks and it turned out to be a really calming, cool experience. I would definitely recommend these guys, I was sold when I found out that it was a small group and that we would have a lot more time in the cage.
I was extremely satisfied with the level of hospitality. It's a highly regarded tour. Although there were many participants, they provided attentive service to each individual.
おもてなし度満タンで、非常に満足です。評判が良いツアーです。参加者の人数は多いのですが、1人ひとりにきめ細かく対応してくれました。
ALOHA!
Thank you for participating in Dolphin University!
We hope you will join us again if the opportunity arises.
All of our staff are sincerely looking forward to seeing you again.

On the day of the event, it had just stopped raining, and we were able to see a beautiful rainbow from the boat for a long time. The appearance of the whales was a bit modest, but it turned out to be a fun cruising experience!
参加当日は雨上がりで、綺麗な虹を長時間船上から見ることが出来ました。
クジラの登場は2度と少し控えめでしたが、楽しいクルージングになりました!
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased that you were able to see both the whales and the rainbow! Please come again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.

スターオブホノルル
- Sandbar walk
- Snorkeling
- Lunch (BBQ buffet)
- Free time (we experienced stand-up paddleboarding!)
This is the flow of the tour mentioned above. The sandbar depends on the tide, but when we went, the water was about knee-deep. I thought it would be best to go when the tide is completely out, and honestly, I was a bit unsure since it wasn't low tide, but it was no problem at all! Even with some water, it was incredibly beautiful! There was plenty of free time, so we took lots of photos! (Since the tour time is fixed, it might be difficult to perfectly match it with low tide...)
During snorkeling, we encountered three sea turtles! It was amazing! The guide said it was a sea turtle festival that day (laughs)!
The captain and all the staff were very kind, and I highly recommend this tour! You can really feel the essence of Hawaii!
・サンドバーウォーク
・シュノーケル
・昼食(BBQバイキング)
・自由時間(私たちはサップ体験!)
上記のような流れのツアーです。
サンドバーは潮の満ち引きの状況もありますが、私たちの時はひざ下位の深さありました。サンドバーは絶対潮が完全に引いてる時がいい!!と思ってて、正直行くまでは干潮じゃないから少し微妙かな〜と思ってましたが、全然問題ありませんでした!少し水があってもとっても綺麗でした!!自由な時間もたっぷり取ってあるので写真たくさん撮りました!
(ツアーの時間も決まってるので完全に干潮と合わせるのは難しい…かな?)
シュノーケルでは3匹のウミガメに会えました!感動しました!この日はウミガメ祭りだ(ガイドさんいわく笑)って言われてました!
キャプテン、ガイドさんはじめスタッフ皆さんとても優しい方でこのツアーはとてもオススメです!ハワイを感じられます!
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating. We appreciate you sharing wonderful photos of the sandbar, heart reef, and turtles. The weather was great, and we hope you enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Hawaii. We look forward to welcoming you back again.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。素敵なサンドバー、ハートリーフ、カメさんの写真のシェアをありがとうございます。お天気も良く、素晴らしいハワイの景色を堪能して頂けたのではないでしょうか。またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I couldn't see any whales, and we were clearly heading in the opposite direction from where the whales were supposed to be. We just took a boat ride around the waters of Waikiki. I wondered if a different tour would have been better. I don't really recommend this one!
クジラは見えないし、あきらかにクジラがいる方向とは別方向に進んでいた。
ただ、ワイキキの海を船で遊覧しただけでした。違うツアーのがよかったのかな。と思ったぐらいです。あまりおすすめしません!
We participated as a family of three: my husband, our 5-year-old son, and I.
[Review]
It was really fun, but please keep in mind that the location is in Hawaii, and it's best to assume sunny weather. There may be limited shade, but it's possible to rent a paid space.
[Advice before using]
★ There is no guidance for the morning pickup bus. Make sure to wait on the roadside at least five minutes before the scheduled pickup time and actively inform the driver by saying "wet & wild"! Sometimes, there are various pickup buses, and if you don't speak up, you might be overlooked and miss the bus.
★ The water slides here far exceed those at Toshimaen!
★ If you are over 130 cm tall, you can enjoy the thrill rides ← There is quite a difference between the height listed on the homepage and the actual height panel.
★ There are also thrilling rides available for those around 120 cm tall.
★ If you visit during the rainy season in January, bring long sleeves, long pants, and warm drinks ← only cold carbonated drinks are available.
★ The wristband you wear for access varies ← Lunch options like hamburgers are treated the same as the basic wristband, but lunch tickets can be obtained at the ticket booth. The driver may not know this; when I asked, he said he didn't know. By the way, he doesn't speak Japanese.
★ Arrival is between 10:00 and 10:30, and departure is at 15:15 ← Make sure to change and be at the bus stop by 15:00, or you might miss the bus.
★ Lockers are operated via a touch panel, and you can select Japanese for the language. Payment can be made by card. The space for your belongings is small, so pack lightly! It costs $10 for a small locker or $18 for a large one, and the money is non-refundable. Since the shuttle and lunch are included, keep valuables to a minimum and manage with a waterproof pouch for your card and about $50-100, along with a waterproof camera or smartphone.
★ Overall, the rainy season is cold, and once you get out of the pool, you can't warm up, which can lead to getting chilled. I fell and scraped my skin, resulting in bleeding, and I received treatment in the first aid room. The floor is slippery, so please be especially careful during the rainy season. Also, please avoid touching the snails.
息子5歳児と主人と私3人で参加しました。
[感想]
すごく楽しいですがまずハワイという立地で晴れた日を想定した場所ということだけ認識してください。
日陰はおそらく少なく感じますが、有料のレンタルスペースを借りる事も可能です。
[利用する前のアドバイスです]
★朝の迎えバスの案内は皆無です。ホテルのピックアップは集合時間の5分以上前に道路側で待ち、必ず「wet & wild」と運転手さんに積極的声がけをオススメします!
いろいろピックアップのバスに乗ってますが声がけがない時もありスルーされ乗れないことがあります
★としまえんのプールを遥かに超えるウォーター
スライダーの宝庫です!
★身長が130cm以上なら絶叫系が楽しめる←ホーム
ページの身長とokの身長パネルは結構差異があります。
★身長120cmくらいでも楽しめる絶叫系もあります。
★1月の雨季に行く時は長袖長ズボンや
温かい飲み物を持参すること←飲み物は冷たい
炭酸系ドリンクしかありません(^^;;
★腕に巻くバンドで利用できるものが異なります←ハンバーガーなどのランチ付きはバンドがベーシックのものと同じ扱いですがランチチケットはチケット売り場でもらえます。そのこと運転手さんは知らないです。実際聞いたら知らないと言われてました。ちなみに日本語はできないです。
★到着10:00ー10:30、出発時間15:15←15:00までにバス乗り場にいられる様着替えなども済ませておかないと乗り遅れてしまいます。
★ロッカーはタッチパネル式で操作も日本語が選べてカード払いができます。物を入れるスペースは狭いので
少なめに!1箇所小10ドルか大18ドルかかりお金は戻ってきません。
送迎とランチ付きなので貴重品は最低限にし防水ポーチにカードと50ー100ドルくらい防水カメラ防水スマホでのりきれました。
★とにかく雨季は寒くプールから出ても暖は取れず寒いままで体が冷え切ってしまい私は転倒し擦り傷で出血。救護室で手当てしてもらいました。床も滑りやすいので雨季は特にお気をつけてください。
あとスネールは触らない様にしてください。
Hawaii is known for its beautiful seas, but the milky blue sandbar was absolutely stunning!
Snorkeling requires some stamina, but you can swim with sea turtles.
We brought our 9-month-old baby, and since everyone on the tour was a mom, we were able to enjoy ourselves while being well taken care of.
I had heard that the tides are lower around the new moon and full moon, so I researched online and went on a nearby date.
As a result, we were able to enjoy the water at a depth of about knee-high!
どこも海がキレイなハワイですが、ミルキーブルーのサンドバーは最高にきれいでした!
シュノーケリングは体力がいりますが、ウミガメと一緒に泳げます。
9ヶ月の赤ちゃん連れでしたが、ツアーの皆さんは全員ママさんということもあり可愛がっていただきながら楽しむことができました。
新月、満月付近が潮引くと聞いていたため事前にサイトで調べ近しい日に行きました。
結果膝くらいまでの水位で楽しむことができました!
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. The color of the water at the sandbar is indescribably beautiful, isn't it? We're glad to hear you enjoyed it. I understand it can be quite challenging with a 9-month-old baby, as it's a time when you can't take your eyes off them. Our team works hard every day to ensure that our tours can be enjoyed by everyone, from babies to seniors. We hope that next time you visit, you'll be able to snorkel with your little one as they grow! All of our staff sincerely look forward to welcoming you back.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。サンドバーの海の色は、なんとも言えない美しさ!!ですよね。楽しんでいただけたようで嬉しく思います。9ヶ月のお子様連れとのこと。目が離せなくて大変な時期ですよね。弊社のツアーは、赤ちゃんからお年を召された方まで楽しんでいただけるように、スタッフが日々努力しております。今度いらっしゃるときは、大きくなったお子様とスノーケルが出来るといいですね!!またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I finally landed on the sandbar that I've wanted to visit for a long time after seeing it on TV! I participated at the timing when the tide was at its lowest during this trip, but the water only receded to knee level, so I couldn't actually land! However, I had plenty of fun with the free rentals of kayaks, SUPs, and snorkeling gear.
The lunch provided was not exactly satisfying, but since it was a meal on the boat, it felt delicious. This time, I brought my daughter along, and my husband and I were worried that we might disturb other guests, but everyone was warm and welcoming, which was great. On top of that, we were really lucky and happy to see a sea turtle!
前々からテレビ等で観ていて行ってみたかったサンドバーに上陸⁈して来ました。
今回の旅程の中では1番潮が引いたタイミングを選んでの参加でしたが
当方膝下レベルまでしか潮が引いておらず、上陸とはなりませんでした!
しかしながら無料レンタルのカヤック、SUP、シュノーケリングなどなどで
充分楽しめました。
昼食内容は決して満足レベルではありませんが、船上での食事という事で
美味しく感じる事が出来ました。
今回は娘も連れて参加の為、他のお客様に迷惑になってしまうかもと
夫婦で心配していましたが、皆さんにも暖かくお仲間にして頂けて良かったです。
おまけにウミガメも見れて本当にラッキー&ハッピーでした。
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Thank you very much for participating. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed various activities. It's great that you were able to see the turtles! We sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。色々とアクティビティを楽しんでいただいたようで、嬉しく思います。カメさんも見れたのですね!良かったです!!またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
The sandy beach was not visible, and there was water everywhere. However, the crew was kind, the stand-up paddleboarding was fun, the barbecue was delicious, and it was great to see sea turtles! It's best not to have high expectations for just the sandbar! Motion sickness medication is a must.
砂浜はでておらず、ずっと水がある状態でした。でも、クルーは親切、サップは楽しく、バーベキューも美味しく、ウミガメも見れてよかったです!サンドバーのみの期待は、しない方がいいです!酔い止め必須です。
Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Reef Tour. The scenery at the sandbar changes depending on the day and time, but regardless of natural conditions, our staff works hard to ensure your satisfaction throughout the tour with activities like snorkeling and meals. We are very pleased to receive your kind words. We sincerely look forward to the opportunity for you to experience a different aspect of the sandbar next time.
この度はキャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーへのご参加誠にありがとうございました。サンドバーはその日その時によりご覧いただける景色が変わってまいりますが、自然条件に関わらずシュノーケリングやアクティビティ、そしてお食事などでツアー全体を通してにご満足いただけるようにスタッフ一同努力いたしておりますので、お褒めの言葉をいただきとても嬉しく思っております。またの機会にぜひ違った表今日のサンドバーを体験していただけますことを心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I participated in January! The staff on the boat were really great! However, it was too cold due to the season. It took a lot of determination to get into the sea. We saw a lot of turtles, and the kids seemed to have a lot of fun. I think we could have enjoyed it even more if the weather had been better!
1月に参加しました!船に乗ってたスタッフさん方はすごいよかった!ただ季節もあって寒すぎました。海に入るのは気合いがいりました。
亀はほんとにたくさん見えて子どもは楽しそうにしてました。季節がよければもっと楽しめたなと思いました!
We rented a cabana, so we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves! The occupancy rate was lower than before, but I think that's to be expected in winter. However, it was great that our family of four could have fun together.
カバナを借りたのでゆっくり楽しめました!!
以前より稼動率がわるかったけど、
冬だから仕方ないと思います。
でも家族4人で楽しめたので良かったです。
I was prepared for the possibility that I might not see it, but...
Unfortunately, I ended up on a disappointing day.
Maybe it's just right to think of it as lucky if I do get to see it!?
必ず見られるとは限らないとは覚悟してたけど・・・
そんな残念な日に当たってしまった。
見れたラッキーぐらいがちょうど良いかも!?
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly sorry that the whales did not make an appearance. We understand that travelers are hoping for that one chance, and it can be disheartening when luck doesn't go their way. If you have the opportunity to visit Hawaii again in the winter, we hope you will give it another try.
この度はスターオフホノルルをご利用いただきありがとうございました。クジラが姿を見せず本当に残念です。ご旅行の方々は、ワンチャンスにかけていらっしゃるので、ラッキー・アンラッキー次第になってしまうことは、心苦しく思います。また、冬のハワイにお越しになる機会があれば、再チャレンジ願います。
