All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

Since my child is still not very good at swimming, we entered the Dolphin Aloha program. It looked like so much fun to touch the dolphins and feed them. Although we didn't go into the pool, we got splashed quite a bit. (But we dried off while walking around the park afterward.) It was reassuring to have a guide who spoke Japanese with us. When my child is a bit older, I would love to swim with the dolphins next time! 😊

子供がまだあまり泳げないので、ドルフィンアロハにエントリーしました。
イルカに触ったり、餌をあげたり、とても楽しそうでした。
プール内には入りませんが、結構水をかけられました。(でもその後パーク内を回っているうちに乾きます)
日本語が話せるガイドさんがついていてくれたので、安心でした。
もう少し大きくなったら、今度はイルカと一緒に泳ぎたいな:-)

I arrived around 10:30 and was informed that "the return bus departs at 3:15." Considering changing clothes and having a meal, we actually had about three hours to enjoy ourselves. I thought that would be insufficient time, but it wasn't too crowded, and we were able to fully enjoy our time.

For those who will participate in the future, here are the instructions for using the lockers:
1. Operate the panel in front of the lockers (there were about 3 or 4 available).
2. Choose between small for $13 or large for $16.
3. Insert your credit card (cash was also an option, I believe).
4. Enter a four-digit number of your choice.
5. Enter the same four-digit number again.
6. The locker number you will use will be displayed.
7. The PIN for the locker will be the number you set in steps 4 and 5, and you can use it freely throughout the day.

１０時半頃に到着し、「帰りのバスは３時１５分に出発します」とのこと。
着替え、食事等を考えると、実際に遊べるのは３時間ほど。全然時間が足りないと思っていましたが、それほど混雑しておらず満喫することができました。

今後参加される方のためにロッカーの使用方法について記載します。
①ロッカー前のパネルを操作します。（３、４台程ありました）
②小１３ドル or 大１６ドルの選択をします。
③クレジットカードを通します。（現金も可能だったような）
④任意の４桁の番号を入力します。
⑤再度④と同じ４桁の番号を入力します。
⑥使用するロッカーの番号が表示されます。
⑦ロッカーの暗証番号が④と⑤で設定した番号となり一日中自由に使えます。

This was my first time in Hawaii.
I participated with my two sons, aged 9 and 11, making it a family of four.
We were satisfied with both the swimming and lunch.
This tour is popular and fills up quickly, so I recommend making a reservation early if you're considering a trip to Hawaii.

★Departure★
We were picked up under the flagpole at the Ilikai Hotel.
It’s also a pickup spot for Dolphin University and other tours, so it was quite crowded.
The bus arrived about 10 minutes late, but I felt reassured because I had called the contact number provided by Veltra to ask for the bus number.
The pickup location is also a stop for the pink line bus from Ala Moana Shopping Mall (free with a JCB card), so you could arrive by that bus as well.
After a 60-minute bus ride, we arrived at the port.

★Boarding - Sandbar★
We were split into two groups: Japanese and others.
Around 40:15, there were a lot of Japanese people.
Since the boat was the same size, it felt a bit crowded here.
We went with one Japanese person and a cheerful foreign staff member who understood Japanese. Let’s go!!
Drinks were provided along the way.
The lemonade was fantastic!
We arrived at the sandbar in about 30 minutes.

★Sandbar★
Unfortunately, it wasn't an island but rather a shallow area up to our stomachs.
If you really want an island experience, you can choose from three tour times: morning, noon, and afternoon, so check the tide schedule before making a reservation!
Here, we practiced snorkeling.
It was just right for the kids to get accustomed!
With the emerald blue sea and sandy coral, we took photos and enjoyed the clear water.
Beach volleyball was open for everyone to join!
It was a lot of fun.
Snorkels and life jackets are available for rent.
Fins are for the next coral reef.

★Lunch - Turtle Tour★
Lunch consisted of huge burgers!
The meat was freshly grilled on the boat.
The staff came aboard and performed live music with a guitar, and I thought, "Ah, this is a resort."

After finishing our meal, we set off.
We watched turtles while heading to the large coral reef.
On average, we saw one every 2-3 minutes.
I think we saw about 10-15 turtles.

★Snorkeling at the Coral Reef★
We received bread and off we went!
The fish gathered around, and when we offered the bread, they nibbled at it!
And then, a turtle swam right beside us!
I made a wish and swam together for about 30 seconds.
We swam for about 30 minutes, but due to a series of jellyfish stings (the blue ones), we had to cut it short.
(My wife also got stung.)

Those who were stung by jellyfish were treated with warm packs or cream.
The staff here were very attentive and provided great service.
We enjoyed warm drinks on the way back.

★Return★
The bus was 30 minutes late, haha.
But it was nice to have a little break on land.
It seems like taking a direct route from the boat to the bus could lead to motion sickness.
Everyone has their own perspective on this.

★Overall Review★
It was very good!
Next time, I want to achieve "landing" on the sandbar!

ここの考え方は人それぞれということで。

★総評★
とても良かったです！
今度はサンドバー「上陸」果たしたいです^ ^

- I had a great time seeing so many dolphins up close, even more than I expected.
- After swimming with the dolphins, I was able to go snorkeling, but I got too carried away with the dolphins and didn't have the energy left (laughs).
- The staff at Dolphin University were all really nice, and we had a fun time on the boat.
- The light snacks included chips, juice, and cheeseburgers. They tasted familiar, like something from McDonald's in Japan, and were really delicious.

・思っていた以上にたくさんのイルカをまじかで見られて楽しかった。
・イルカスイム後にシュノーケリングもできたが、イルカではしゃぎ過ぎて体力が持たなかった(笑)
・イルカ大学のスタッフの方も皆いい人で船の上でも楽しいひと時を過ごせる。
・軽食はスナック菓子とジュース、チーズバーガー。日本のマク○ナルド？のような味で親しみがありすごくおいしかった。

Great food and entertainment, staff was very friendly and service was excellent

It was amazing to see the sea turtles. The BBQ lunch was also delicious.
There are morning and afternoon sessions, but I checked the tides in advance and chose the morning.

ウミガメにも会えて最高でした。BBQランチもおいしかったですよ。
午前と午後がありますが、前もって潮を調べて午前にしました。

Due to the tides and weather, the children were constantly floating, making it far from possible to walk on the sandy beach, which was disappointing. The tour program and the atmosphere with the attendants were good.

潮と天候の影響か、子供は常に浮いてる状態で、砂浜を歩くにはほど遠くて残念でした。
ツアーのプログラムやアテンドさん達の雰囲気は良かったです。

The scenery was amazing, but at this time of year, there are jellyfish, and about 5 or 6 people got stung. Of course, even on the bus during the transfer, I think it's important to inform people about the dangers more than before, as it can be dangerous! Children got stung more than adults, which is scary!

景色は最高でしたが、今の時期はクラゲがいて、5.,.6人ほど刺されました。
移動のバスの中も勿論のことツアー案内から、やはり危険は、以前より知らせないと、危ないと思いますよ！大人以上に子供も刺されましたが、怖いですよねー！

The morning was early, but I had a wonderful experience!! The sunrise was from the ocean. The water level was unexpectedly up to my waist, but personally, it didn't bother me at all. I was very satisfied with the service from the captain and crew. It was a great experience. I will use this service again!!

朝は早かったけれど、とても素晴らしい経験が出来ました！！
日の出は、海の中から。
予想外に腰までの水位でしたが、個人的には全く気にならず。
キャプテンやクルーのサービスに大満足。
とてもいい経験が出来ました。
また利用します！！

There were several areas that were closed, and I was really disappointed that I couldn't try the slide I wanted to. However, even though we had to line up, we didn't have to wait too long and were able to slide multiple times, which was a lot of fun. At the entrance, there was a strict check of belongings, and food is not allowed to be brought in. Inside, there are hamburgers and pizza, but it takes quite a while to buy them, so it might be a good idea to line up with some extra time and take turns playing.

閉鎖されてるところが何箇所かありやってみたかったスライダーができなかったのがとても残念。
しかし、列も並んでもそれほど待つ事なく何度も滑ることができてとても楽しく遊べました。
出入口では厳しい持ち物チェックがあり、食べ物は持ち込み出来ません。
中にハンバーグやビザがあるのですがとにかく買うまでに時間がかかるので余裕を持って並んで交代で遊ぶくらいでもいいかも。

I have no complaints about the transportation or the plan. However, there were no detailed explanations or guidance on-site, making everything quite confusing. It doesn't go as smoothly as it does in Japan. For those who love slides, I think it's enjoyable since you don't have to wait in long lines like in Japan. The bodyboard lesson started with about 30 seconds of explanation in English, and after that, we just played around riding the waves, which was fun.

送迎、プランには不満はありません。ただ、現地では詳しい説明も、案内もなく、何をするにもわかりづらいです。日本のようにスムーズにはいきません。スライダー好きの方は、日本のようにたくさん並ばないので楽しいと思います。ボディーボードレッスンは、最初に30秒くらい英語で説明があって、その後は勝手に波に乗って遊ぶだけでしたが楽しかったです。

My family and I had a great time with star of Honolulu!! Tyler was great in serving us and he was always making sure we were all fine!!!
For me , this activity is a must to do every time we come to Oahu!!!

Due to the season, we didn't see any sandbars like those on TV, but the service was sufficient and good. The food was more to our liking than that of the famous tours, and the kids ate a lot.

季節柄、テレビに出てくるようなサンドバーは見られませんでしたが、必要十分なサービスで良かったです。
ご飯も有名ツアーのものより我が家は好みで子供達も沢山食べていました。

This was the most beautiful place ever. The kids really enjoyed the snorkelling here, lots of beautiful fish to see. The online booking process was simple and price was very affordable. Our driver was friendly and explained how to use the equipment. Pickup and drop off was on time. Highly recommend! Will be back to do this again!

I participated in the encounter with my 8-year-old and 3-year-old daughters. My 8-year-old had been there before, but she spent much longer in the pool this time and was very satisfied. After the tour, we had to wait quite a while at the photo counter, even though there wasn't much time before the return bus. If it had been a bit smoother, we could have returned without stress... Also, the return bus was as cold as a refrigerator, and even with a jacket on, I felt like I might catch a cold.

8歳と3歳の娘を連れてエンカウターに参加しました。
8歳の娘は2度目でしたが、以前よりプールにいる時間が長くて大満足でした。
ツアーに参加してから、帰りのバスの時間があまりないわりに写真のカウンターが混み合い結構待ちました。
もう少しスムーズならストレスフリーで帰れるたのに…
あと、帰りのバスの中が冷蔵庫並で上着を着ていても風邪引きそうでした。

I used this service on the last night of my trip to Hawaii. I was able to enjoy delicious food and beautiful scenery on a luxurious cruiser, creating the best memories. While most other tours had a majority of Japanese participants, this tour had many international guests. For $30, you can receive the photo data. I would love to use this service again!

ハワイ旅行最後の夜に利用しました。
高級感溢れるクルーザーで美味しい料理と、素敵な景色を見ることができ、最高の思い出になりました。
他のツアーは日本人の方が大半ですが、こちらのツアーは海外の方がたくさん来ていました。
30ドルで写真のデータを送ってもらえます。
また利用したいです！

This was my second experience at the sandbar. This time, I went with a different tour company. It's called the Angel Sea Tour, but the person calling out at the meeting point wasn't very good at Japanese, so be sure to remember "Captain Bob Tours" as well!

The sandbar itself has territories depending on the tour company, so it's hard to say, but unfortunately, there was still water up to my knees this time. It's understandable given the weather, season, and lunar phases.

The flow was the same as the previous tour with another company: heading from the port to the sandbar → playing at the sandbar → lunch → snorkeling. There were two buses and two boats. One boat was just for Japanese people, while the other had a mix of Japanese and international guests (laughs). There were about 100 people in total.

The Angel Sea Tour offers:
- BBQ lunch that is incredibly delicious! They grill hamburgers on the boat!
- The tour guide is great at getting everyone excited and entertained.
They provide activities like beach volleyball at the sandbar.
- They don’t do annoying things like taking photos and selling them! (laughs)
- I encountered a giant sea turtle while snorkeling!

So, I highly recommend this tour!

サンドバーは2度目の体験。前回とは違うツアー会社でした。天使の海ツアーとなっていますが、集合場所での呼び出しは日本語があまり得意でない方でしたので、「キャプテンボブツアー」とも是非覚えておきましょう！
サンドバー自体はツアー会社によってのテリトリーがあるので、なんともいえないですが、残念ながら今回も膝下くらいまで水がありました。天候や季節、月の満ち欠けの影響があるので仕方ないですね。
流れは前回の他社のツアーとも同じく、港からサンドバーへ向かう→サンドバーで遊ぶ→ランチ→シュノーケリングの構成でした。
バス2台分、船は2隻。1隻は日本人だけ、もう一隻は半分日本人＋多国籍軍でした（笑）全体で100名くらいでしょうか。
天使の海ツアーは、
・BBQランチがめちゃくちゃおいしい！船の上でハンバーグ焼いてます！
・添乗員さんが盛り上げ上手！楽しませてくれます
　サンドバーではビーチバレーなど用意してくれています
・写真撮影して販売する・・など、うっとおしいことしません！笑
・シュノーケリングで巨大ウミガメに遭遇！
ということで、おすすめツアーです！

I couldn't see many dolphins, but all the staff were bright and fun, making for an enjoyable time. My preschooler was reluctant to snorkel and wanted to stay on the boat, but a staff member picked her up and took her into the water. Although she couldn't snorkel, she had a great time singing while swaying with the waves. I'm very grateful to the staff who tried to entertain the whole family.

イルカはたくさんはみることができませんでしたが、スタッフの皆さんが明るく、楽しい方ばかりで楽しい時間が過ごせました。幼稚園の子供がシュノーケルを嫌がり船に残ろうとしましたが、スタッフのお姉さんが抱きかかえて海に連れて行ってくれました。シュノーケルはできなかったものの、波に揺られながら歌を歌って楽しませてくれて娘もとても楽しく過ごせました。家族全員を楽しませてくれようとしたスタッフさん達に感謝でいっぱいです。

Due to the high waves, most participants, including my family, experienced seasickness, and the Aloha buckets were in high demand everywhere. We couldn't even see the dolphins underwater.

The onboard lunch and marine sports were canceled, and we had to endure three hours on a rocking boat, returning on the bus while eating the Burger King hamburgers that were supposed to be served on the boat.

It's important to be cautious, as depending on the weather and wave conditions, there is a significant risk of disappointment and wasting a lot of money. If the weather had been good, it might have been a much more moving experience.

I felt that they continued the tour even with relatively large waves, possibly because they had the boat and crew secured. It's better not to join too easily just because you want to swim with dolphins.

波の高い中での催行で、私の家族も含め参加者のほとんどは船酔い状態でアロハバケツがあちこちで大活躍するハメに。イルカを水中で見ることも叶わず。
船上ランチやマリンスポーツも中止となり、大揺れの船上で3時間耐える羽目になり、帰りのバスで本来船上で提供されるはずだったバーガーキングのハンバーガーを食べながら帰ることに。
天候や波の状態次第では大きく期待外れ＆大金を捨てる可能性があるので注意が必要です。天気さえ良ければ大きな感動があったかも。
船やクルーをおさえているからか、ある程度の大きな波でも中止にはせず催行となるのかと感じました。イルカと泳ぎたいからと安易に参加しないほうがベター。

I was excited to swim with dolphins in Hawaii for the first time, but at first, the dolphins were jumping around a lot, which raised my expectations. However, when I actually got into the water, the dolphins disappeared, and we moved to the next spot. I managed to see one dolphin, but I was disappointed that I couldn't see the many dolphins I had imagined. The waves were high, and both the boat and the water were rocking, which made me seasick. At first, the sea turtles blended in with the rocks, and I couldn't find them, but I did see about three small ones. The water clarity was a bit murky, and compared to when I went diving in Okinawa, it was somewhat disappointing. However, I appreciated how the crew was bright and worked hard to make the tour enjoyable.

初めてのﾊﾜｲでイルカと泳げるとわくわくしていましたが、最初はイルカたちがたくさん飛び跳ねていて期待していたのですが、いざ海へ入ってみるとイルカたちがいなくなってしまい、次のポイントへ。なんとか１匹ほどみれましたが、ｲﾒｰｼﾞしていたたくさんのイルカをみることができず残念でした。また波が高く船でも海に入ってもゆれて、船酔いしてしまいました。ウミガメも最初、岩と同化していてどこにいるかわからず、小さいかめが３匹ほどみれました。海の透明度もちょっとにごっていて、以前沖縄でダイビングしたときと比べるとちょっと残念でした。ただクルーの方たちが明るく一生懸命ツアーを盛り上げてくれている様子がわかりありがたかったです。

We’ve been to many Luaus over the years but this one was the best ever. It was personal, informative, and super entertaining. Definitely recommend to others. Each guest felt involved without big crowds and big lines.

The driver tried to separate our seats, which had two participants. It seemed like they wanted to put their luggage in the front seat? This was our second time, but the lunch was of lower quality compared to last time, and it wasn't BBQ! The biggest disappointment was that we had to snorkel in a line. I think they should advertise it as suitable for beginners. I don't think I'll participate next time.

ドライバーが2人参加の私達の席を別々に座らせようとしました。自分の荷物を前席に置きたいらしく？
今回は2回目でしたが、前回よりランチもランクダウン、BBQ?ではなかった！そして一番の残念は並んでスノーケリングしなければならなかった事。初級者用と宣伝した方が良いと思います。今度は参加しないと思います。

Saki was amazing! I had so much fun!
I was able to swim with dolphins and sea turtles, the ocean was beautiful, and it was a wonderful experience!
I apologize for getting stung by a jellyfish, but thank you for taking care of it right away and for your concern; it healed quickly thanks to you! I will participate again!!!

Sakiさん最高でした！とても楽しかったです！
イルカともウミガメとも泳ぐことができて、海も綺麗で、素晴らしい体験ができました！
クラゲに刺されてしまってご迷惑をおかけ致しましたすぐに処置してくれて、心配もしてくれてありがとうございましたおかげですぐに治りました！また、参加します！！！

I was very happy to meet dolphins and, above all, to see the gracefully swimming sea turtles.

It was my first time scuba diving, and on top of seasickness, the tightness of the suit and life jacket was tough to handle.

It would have been easier if I could take it off, but I thought I couldn't go into the water without it, so I got out early, which was disappointing. I wanted to play a little longer, even if it meant getting sick.

The staff were considerate, and it was reassuring to have a good number of people around. The dance was fun!

イルカにも逢え、何よりも優雅に泳ぐ亀仙人に逢えとても幸せ

スキューバーは初めてで、船酔いのうえにスーツと救命胴衣の窮屈さがしんどかった

脱いだら楽になる状態、でも着てないと海に入っちゃ行けないだろうと早々に上がったのは残念。吐いてでももう少し遊びたかった

スタッフさんも気遣いや、人数いて安心でした。ダンス楽しかったです

During the Obon season, there were a lot of people, and there were some unexpected incidents from the start, but we managed to board the boat and set sail.

My husband and I were a bit nervous about getting into the sea after a long time, but the staff were kind and made it fun, so we felt comfortable participating.

There were about 5 to 6 people who felt sick from seasickness, so I think it's better to have a light breakfast and definitely take motion sickness medication.

Masks, snorkels, and fins are provided, so you can participate in your swimsuit and sandals. Marine shoes are not necessary. We wore long-sleeve rash guards and leggings, so we didn't need wetsuits.

The coldest part was when we were on the boat and exposed to the wind, so it's better to have something warm to wear. There were several people shivering.

It was disappointing that we couldn't do activities like stand-up paddleboarding due to the strong wind, but on the plus side, we got to see a lot of dolphins, which was great.

I definitely want to participate again. Thank you very much.

お盆の時期だけに人が多く、集合時から何やらアクシデントでドタバタしてましたが、なんとか船に乗って出航できました。
旦那と2人 久しぶりに海に入るとあって最初は緊張気味でしたが、スタッフの方も優しく、楽しく盛り上げてくださって、安心して参加できました。
中には船酔いで気分が悪くなっている方も5〜6人いたので 、朝ごはんは少なめに、酔い止めは必ず飲んでおいた方が良いと思います。
マスク、シュノーケル、フィンは付いているので
水着にサンダルで参加できます。
マリンシューズは不要でした。
私たちは長袖ラッシュガードにレギンス着用なのでウェットスーツは不要でした。
船に上がってからボートで風にあたっているときが一番寒かったので、暖かい羽織りものがあった方がいいです。
ガタガタ震えている人が何人もいたので。
風が強くて、スタンダップパドル等のアクティビティができながったのは残念でしたが
その分イルカたちにはたくさん会えたので良かったです。
ぜひまた参加したいです。
ありがとうございました。

We gathered at 5:50 AM and received explanations about important points during the bus ride to the port. I was really excited to hear that the chance of seeing dolphins was over 90%, and as we got off the bus and headed towards the boat, we encountered a sea turtle right away! I didn't see any dolphins at the first spot, but I was able to see several at the second spot! During snorkeling, I saw many beautiful fish and sea turtles. Not everyone was able to participate in the marine sports, which was one of the main reasons I joined this tour, so I was really disappointed that I couldn't take part. The staff on the boat were all very nice, and I had a really enjoyable day.

If I could suggest two areas for improvement:
The first is regarding the boat's restrooms. Both were broken, and it was cold and uncomfortable to have to hold it in.
The second is that I received an email meant for participants on a different day, which was mistakenly sent to me (it was from another instructor). I pointed this out in an email, but I didn't receive a response, and then I got a second incorrect email. Since it contained a photo of me, I hope they will be more careful with personal information.

朝5:50集合で、港までのバスの中では注意事項などの説明を受けました。
イルカが観れる確率は90%以上ということでとってもワクワクしていると、車を降りて船に向かう道で早速ウミガメに出会いました！
イルカのポイント１つ目では私は見れなかったのですが、２つ目のスポットでイルカを何頭か観れました！
シュノーケリングでは綺麗な魚やウミガメがたくさん観れました。
マリンスポーツは全員ができるわけではありませんでした。こちらのツアーに参加した大きな目的のひとつだったので参加できなくてすごく残念でした。
船のスタッフさん達は全員が良い人でとても楽しい１日を過ごすことができました。

改善してほしい点を２つ挙げると
１つ目は船のお手洗いについてです。２つとも壊れていて、お手洗いを我慢しなきゃいけなかったのが寒くて辛かったです。
２つ目は、後日、別の日の参加者宛のメールが誤送信されてきました。(他のインストラクターからでした。)間違ったのかと思い指摘のメールをしたのですが、そちらには返事が来ず、その後2回目の誤ったメールがきました。顔写真が載っていたので、個人情報の扱いには注意してほしいと思います。

I was really interested in the Angel's Sea experience, so I decided to participate. After checking reviews, magazines, and online information, I learned that the tide is better in the early morning, so I joined the morning session. When I woke up, the weather was clear, and I was excited as I was taken to the boat dock, but the weather started to look a bit suspicious. It didn't seem like it would rain, but there were quite a few clouds. Despite the situation, we boarded the boat and set sail for the spot! The Japanese guide (female) who was with us in the shuttle and on the boat provided very clear explanations and kept everyone entertained with her bright energy.

First, we stopped the boat at a spot where turtles are known to appear for some watching. Although they didn't come right in front of us, we did see quite a few turtles. Everyone was excited and taking photos. Next, we headed to the sandbar. As I mentioned earlier, there were many clouds, so it felt a bit chilly when we arrived at the sandbar! I was disappointed because I had relied on the information for the morning session, but the tide was not very low, only about waist-deep. The water level was lower than expected, around ankle-deep, and without any sunshine, it felt cold and a bit murky. Because of this, the snorkeling experience was less enjoyable.

It seems that the timing might have been off, or perhaps the volcanic activity on the Big Island affected the weather, causing many clouds and a whitish appearance around us. There were mountains where Jurassic World was filmed, and I couldn't help but think how beautiful it would have been if the weather had been clear! I was filled with regret, imagining the stunning scenery like in the experience photos. This time, we had a light meal with sandwiches, which were quite tasty. Drinks like cola, Sprite, tea, and other beverages were available for free.

For those who will participate in the future, I can only say that if you're lucky enough to have clear weather, you will have an amazing time! Locals also mentioned that the early morning is better for the tide, so it might be a good idea to choose the morning session. All we can do is hope for good weather. I hope to join again someday in perfect sunny conditions.

天使の海すごく興味が有り参加しました。口コミ情報や雑誌やネットなどの説明を見て朝早い方が潮引きが良いと知り朝早い時間帯で参加しました。朝起きてかなりの晴天でワクワクしながら船乗りばまで送迎してもらうなかなんだか天気が怪しい感じ。雨は降りそうもないけど雲がかなり多くなってきた。状況が変わらず船に乗りスポットまで出航！送迎車から船の中もずっと一緒に乗っていた日本人(女性)のガイドさんは、とても分かりやすい説明に非常に明るいテンションでみんなを楽しく和ませていました。まず亀の出るスポットで船のエンジンを止めてウォッチング。本当の目の前には現れなかったものの、結構亀が出現しました。みんな興奮して写真を撮っていました。次にサンドバーに向かいました。最初にも言ったように雲が多かったのでちょっと肌寒い感じの中サンドバーに到着！しっかり情報をあてにして朝の参加にしたのに残念。潮引きがあまく腰位迄の深さでした。足首程度の水位の期待が外れて晴れ間がないから寒いし少し濁って見える感じでした。なのでシュノーケルも楽しさが半減でした。時期が悪かったのかハワイ島の噴火の影響で風に流れて雲が多く辺りが白っぽい感じになってしまっているそうです。ジェラシックワールドの撮影された山があったりで、これが晴天だったらどんなに綺麗なんだろう！体験談の写真にのような素晴らしい景色なんだろうと悔やんでしょうがない気持ちでいっぱいでした。今回は軽食付きでサンドイッチを頂きました。普通に美味しかったです。ドリンクはコーラ、スプライト、紅茶、お茶などが飲み放題でした。これから参加する方には運良く晴天でであれば最高な時間を過ごせるよ！としか言えません。現地の方に聞いても朝早い方が潮引きが良いと言っていましたので、朝早い方便を選んだ方が良いかもしれません。天気は願うしかありません。いつかまた最高の晴天で参加したいです。

Total package from online reservation, round-trip Transportation, LARGE SHIP, meal, entertainment & position of ship for Friday Night Fireworks over Waikiki, panoramic views of Waikiki, & stunning sunset, easily 5 STARS. Must Do Activity.

Zero bad things to say about the whole experience!
First, the bus driver, Rey, was friendly and prompt!
The host, Jenner, was also extremely friendly and funny!
Mike and Tyson, the dudes on the boat, were insanely helpful and welcoming!

If you're staying in Waikiki, I recommend taking their shuttle. There are various location pickups throughout Waikiki, so you can just walk to one.

The tour starts at the sandbar, where you can walk around explore. They also have a volleyball net setup, which is super cool. Next, we are served freshly cooked burgers and snacks on the boat. Then, after lunch, we sail to an area where we can turtle watch. Lastly, we were taken to a nearby reef, where we could snorkel for an hour. They provide all the proper snorkeling gear and life vests, so no need to bring your own.

Unlike in Japan, the active facilities were not very crowded, making it comfortable. By the way, bringing food and drinks is completely prohibited, so be careful about that (I regret not checking the rules properly). The kids were very satisfied, sliding down the various slides dozens of times. However, this seems to be the case everywhere; there are long lines at the shops for food and drinks, so it's better to line up early during less busy times to secure lunch. Other than that, it was a comfortable and enjoyable place that I recommend. I felt that it would have been better if we had a little more time to enjoy it. The opening is at 10 AM, and gathering is at 3 PM, so considering the time for entry, changing clothes, and securing food, the actual operating time is until 3 PM.

日本とは違いあまり各アクティブ施設が混んでおらず快適でした。ちなみに飲食物は持ち込み完全禁止ですので要注意です(注意事項を良く確認しないで言った為です、反省)子供たちもスライダー各種を何十回と滑り大満足でした。ただこれは何処でも同じなのでしょうが、飲食を使用と買い求めるショップに大行列になりますので、すいている時間に早めに並んで昼食を確保しておいた方がいいでしょう。それ以外は快適に楽しめたおすすめの場所でした。
楽し買った分、時間がもう少し長ければ良いと感じました
開演10時、集合15時、実際入場、着替え、食事確保など考えると3時の稼働時間になります
