All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

I was the only one participating alone, surrounded by couples and families. I felt a bit lonely on the shuttle bus, but once I boarded, the staff greeted me, and my worries were dispelled! I was able to see dolphins and turtles safely! Additionally, I was able to see a monk seal, which is a rare sight. I'm grateful for the staff's thoughtfulness!

一人での参加は他におらず、周りはカップルとファミリーばかりでした。行き送迎バスで少し孤独を感じていましたが、いざ乗船するとスタッフの方々に声を掛けていただき、心配は払拭されました！無事、イルカ、カメにも会えました！それに滅多に見れないモンクシールも観ることができました。
スタッフの心配りに感謝です！

I challenged myself to swim with wild dolphins, but due to the cloudy weather, I only saw one far away. It was murky and hard to see, but I was glad to have encountered it. I did see a pod, but it was disappointing that I couldn't see them up close. I'm glad I had the unique experience of eating hamburgers and dancing.

野生のイルカと泳げるというので挑戦しましたが、曇りというのもあり一匹だけ遠くに見えました。濁っていてわかりにくかったですが、会えてよかったです。群れには会えたのですが近くで見れなかったのは残念でした。ハンバーガーを食べたり踊ったりなかなか出来ない体験が出来て良かったです。

It was my first experience at the sandbar. It was a bit cloudy, which was disappointing, but I was happy to be able to stand on the sandbar. I had fun eating sandwiches and taking pictures. I was able to take a lot of photos.

サンドバー初体験でした。少し曇っていたのが残念ですが、サンドバーに立てたことが嬉しかったです。サンドイッチ食べたり、写真取ってもらったり楽しかったー。写真もたくさん撮れました。

This was a powerful tour in part cause of our driver Tao!

We enjoyed it so much, we came back 2 days later and enjoyed it again. We highly suggest it for anyone that visits the island. The Sandbar is a true hidden gem!

Not many fish the day we went but lots of huge sea turtles The buried wreaks were fun we traveled really close to a lot of interesting underwater features.

In a word, it was an unforgettable time like a dream. The staff were all very service-oriented! With their rich experience, we encountered a pod of dolphins shortly after setting sail. That day, we were lucky enough to observe two pods of dolphins as we splashed down twice. The dolphins swam around us for a long time, allowing us to take beautiful photos with our personal waterproof cameras.

There was also plenty of time to enjoy activities like kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding, making it a thoroughly enjoyable tour. The dedicated photographer not only took pictures but also kept the laughter going during the boat ride thanks to him. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to participate again and see sea turtles up close.

ひと言でいうと、夢のような忘れられない時間でした。
スタッフさんみんなサービス精神旺盛！経験も豊富なので、出航して割とすぐにイルカの群れに出逢えました。この日は運良く2回着水して2群れのイルカを観察することができました。イルカもまた私たちの周辺を長い時間行ったり来たりしてくれたため、個人の防水カメラでもキレイに写真が撮れました。
その後カヤックやスタンドアップパドルなどのアクティビティを楽しむ時間もたっぷりあって、十二分に楽しめるツアーでした。
専属のカメラマンは写真を撮ってくれるだけでなく、行き帰りの船内は彼のおかげで笑い声は絶える事がありませんでした。
また今度ハワイに行く機会があったら、再度参加してウミガメも是非間近で見てみたいと思います。

The dolphins were number one, and the staff's enthusiasm and help made me feel at ease. I definitely want to participate again. Mahalo (^^)

1番はイルカですがスタッフの盛り上げやヘルプが安心でした、
また是非参加したいと思ってます
mahalo(^^)

It wasn't a sunny day, so the water was quite cold when we got in, but we were able to enjoy a different kind of sea than Waikiki and even encountered sea turtles. The lunch on the boat was also quite delicious. After that, my father and high school students seemed to have a great time snorkeling, taking pictures of corals and sea turtles with their cameras. My mother and elementary school students enjoyed themselves with the rental floaties and paddle boats during that time. The boat didn't feel too rocky, but there were about 5 or 6 people who got seasick, so motion sickness medication might be necessary. The staff were all cheerful and fun, and they took great pictures with our cameras.

However... about two months ago, I made a reservation for the best day after checking the tides, but suddenly, less than a month before, I was told it was canceled due to a movie shoot. When I tried to book on another low tide day, I was told it was already full. I thought about canceling, but since it was the event I was looking forward to the most, I participated with faint hopes, even though it was on a king tide day. But as expected... the tide level was 160 cm, which meant the water was up to about half my face. Those who weren't good swimmers seemed to struggle. I knew we wouldn't be able to see the beautiful sandbar, but the result was too disappointing. Even though it cost over 50,000 yen, it was canceled so easily that I couldn't accept it, and now I feel like I want to try again next time, but also not...

晴天ではなかったので、海に入るとかなり冷たかったですが、ワイキキとは違う海を楽しむことができ、海亀とも出会えました。船上のランチも、なかなか美味しかったです。その後、父と高校生はシュノーケリングで、サンゴや海亀を持参したカメラで撮ったりと満喫したようです。母と小学生はその間貸し出しの浮き輪、パドルボートで楽しめました。船はそんなに揺れる感じではなかったですが、酔ってダウンしている方が5〜6人はいらっしゃったので、酔い止めは必要かも…。スタッフの方はみなさん明るく楽しく、という感じで、持参のカメラでもしっかり撮って頂きました。

ただ…二ヶ月ほど前に、潮を調べて一番良い日を予約したにもかかわらず、一ヶ月をきってから突然、映画撮影のためと言われキャンセルになり、他の潮の低い日に申し込んでも、もういっぱいですと言われ…。キャンセルしようかとも思ったのですが、一番楽しみにしていたイベントだったため、キングタイドの日でしたが、淡い期待を持って参加しました。しかしやはり…案の定…潮位は160cmの私で顔半分くらいまで…。泳ぎが得意でない人は、みなさん困っていらっしゃいました。サンドバーのあの綺麗な砂が見られないことは分かってはいたけれど、残念すぎる結果でした。5万を超える出費なのに、簡単にキャンセルされて納得いかず、次回リベンジしたいような、したくないような…

I participated with my 8-year-old son. We spotted a sea turtle swimming alongside the boat, and my son was overjoyed. Watching him sing a song to the turtle made me smile, and I truly felt that it was worth coming here. My son also said he wants to come back to see it again.

息子8歳と参加しました。船の横を並行して泳ぐウミガメを発見して、息子は、大はしゃぎ
でした。ウミガメを見ながらカメに向かってカメさんの歌を唄っている息子を見て
微笑ましくなり、来て良かったとつくづく実感しました。息子も又、逢いに来たいと
言ってました。

I had a really good time with my husband!! Perfect date night. The food was delicious and so were the drinks.

The phrase "Angel's Sea" is truly fitting! The scenery was just as beautiful as the name suggests.
The weather and tide play a significant role on the day of your visit. It was great to have a morning with water levels around calf height.

Searching for sea turtles is exhilarating! The boat is impressive, so it was fine to bring a non-waterproof camera.

The guide really pumped up the excitement, so I definitely want to go again!

天使の海とはよく言ったものだ！名前に負けない景色が楽しめました。
当日は天気と潮が関係します。ふくらはぎくらいの水位となる朝が良かったです。

海ガメ探しはテンション上がります！
船は立派なので防水でないカメラを持っていっても大丈夫でした。

ガイドさんが盛り上げてくれるのでまた行きたいです！

This is the second time I've taken this tour and it is a wonderful experience. However, be warned this is NOT a non-smoking tour which we only discovered this second time.

This was a fun excursion for the kids. You go on a submarine ride about 115 feet down. The tour guide is very entertaining and makes the time go by very fast! He also points out all the fish you are going to see!!

I signed up for this tour because I love dolphins.

We stopped the boat in an area where dolphins are often seen, and when I entered the water and followed the instructor, there were dolphins right below my feet!!

It felt more like seeing dolphins in the same ocean (the same space) from a distance rather than swimming with them. For someone like me who wanted to swim together, it was a bit unsatisfying.

However, with short fins and simple life jackets provided, I think this tour can be enjoyed even by those who are anxious about swimming or lack physical strength.

On the boat, the co-captain was very engaging, which made the experience enjoyable. It was also clear that the other staff members were trying to entertain the guests, which was great.

Thank you very much.

大好きなイルカと泳げるとのことでこのツアーに申し込みました。

イルカがよくいるところに船を停めて、入水しインストラクターさんについていくと足元の下の下のほうにイルカが！！

一緒に泳ぐというよりは、遠くのほうにいるイルカを同じ海の中（同じ空間）で見る感じでした。
一緒に泳ぎたかった私にとってはちょっと物足りなかったです。

ただ、フィンも短く簡易なライフジャケットがあるので泳ぎに不安がある人や体力に自信がない方でも十分に楽しめるツアーかと思います。

船上では副船長にたくさんかまって頂いて楽しむことが出来ました。他のスタッフさんもお客さんを楽しませようというのが伝わってきたのでとても良かったです。

ありがとうございました。

I booked a plan with pick-up service. The tour bus was delayed, and we arrived about 30 minutes late, but we were able to extend our return time a bit, allowing us to fully enjoy our day.
Food and drinks are not allowed inside the park, so there was a baggage check before entry. Once we arrived, we headed straight to the lockers. The lockers are paid (small size: about 1,500 yen). They were a bit tight, just enough to fit two backpacks, but since we could access them freely throughout the day, they were quite convenient.
As for the large pools, there is the only wave pool in Hawaii and a 260-meter lazy river. The wave pool does not have waves at all times, so you need to be mindful of the timing (laughs). The lazy river has a depth of 90 cm, making it safe for small children to enjoy. It might be a bit lacking for adults.
The slides that adults can enjoy were very satisfying. The most fun one was the Tornado. It was a unique slide where you slide down from a height of about 15 meters into a 40-meter giant tornado. Another favorite was the Volcano Express. It’s an exhilarating slide where you slide down on your stomach through a thrilling lava slide filled with curves. Since you go down headfirst, it’s quite intense. You can also race, which adds to the fun.
There was hardly any wait time for any of the slides, so we were able to slide multiple times and fully enjoy our time. The plan also included unlimited drinks, so we took breaks to enjoy Pepsi and Tropicana. For lunch, I had a set of a hamburger and fries for about 1,200 yen.
We were blessed with great weather and had a very enjoyable day.

送迎付きのプランで予約しました。ツアーバスの出発が遅れてしまい、到着も30分ぐらい遅れましたが、帰りの時間も少し遅らせてもらえ、十分遊びつくすことができました。
パーク内には飲食物持ち込み不可なので、入場前に荷物検査がありました。着いたらまずロッカーへ。ロッカーは有料（小サイズ：約1,500円）。リュックサック２個がギリギリ入るかどうかという狭さでしたが、一日中出し入れ自由なので使い勝手は良かったです。
大きなプールとしては、ハワイ唯一という波の出るプールと全長260mの流れるプールがありました。波の出るプールは波が出ていない時間帯もあるのでタイミングに気をつける必要があります（笑）流れるプールは水深が90cmなので、小さなお子様も安心して楽しめます。大人にはちょっと物足りないかも。
大人でも楽しめるスライダーはとても充実していました。一番おもしろかったのはトルネードです。約15mの高さから40mの巨大な竜巻の中を滑り降りるユニークなスライドでした。もうひとつのお気に入りは、ボルケーノ・エクスプレスでした。カーブとスリルが満点の溶岩スライドをうつ伏せになって滑り降りる絶叫スライド。頭から滑り降りるので迫力満点です。競争もできるので楽しいですよ。
どのスライダーも待ち時間はほとんどなく、何度も滑ることができたので、時間内に十分満喫することができました。飲み放題もついたプランだったので、途中でペプシとかトロピカーナを飲んで休憩してました。お昼は、ハンバーガーとポテトのセットで約1,200円。
天気にも恵まれとても楽しい一日でした。

A little while ago, I thought it would be great to see whales, so I signed up for a tour.

On the day of the tour, the weather was nice and perfect for cruising, but the sunlight was so strong that it almost blinded me, haha.

As for the whales, I encountered them about five times, just barely seeing their heads in the distance. I really wanted to see them jump, but I guess that's just a matter of luck.

少し前ですが、せっかくなのでクジラを見てみたい！と思い申し込みました。

当日は天気もよく、クルージング日和でしたが、
日差しが強すぎて目が潰れそうでした笑

肝心のクジラは、遠くに頭が気持ち見える程度に、5回くらい遭遇。
ほんとはジャンプが見たかったですが、こればかりは運なのでしょうがないですね。

I enjoyed turtle watching, beach volleyball, and other activities that I don't usually get to do. The weather was a bit disappointing, but I had a great time playing and felt like a child again. The sound of the experienced old man's guitar was also fantastic!

　亀のウォッチング、そして、ビーチバレーと普段できない遊びを楽しませていただきました。
　天気は多少残念でしたが、童心に帰って楽しく遊ばせていただきました。
　老練のおじさんのギター片手のサウンドも最高でした！！

I had a hard time finding a good restaurant in Waikiki, but after making a reservation online this time, I found it to be tastier than I expected. I invited a friend, and I'm glad they enjoyed it.

なかなかワイキキで美味しい店に今まで巡り会えず、今回事前ネット申込で行ってみたら、思ったより美味しく知り合いを招待したのですが、喜んでもらえてよかったです。

This was my second dinner cruise on my third trip to Hawaii, but it seemed shorter than the last time. I was disappointed that the cruise ended before the night view started.

三度目のハワイ旅行で二度目のデイナークルーズでしたが前回より時間が短かつたようでした。夜景が始まる前にクルーズが終わり残念でした。

I was able to see wild dolphins swimming in a pod for the first time. I also got to see sea turtles up close in the water... it was moving. The hamburger for lunch was delicious too!

The group I joined consisted entirely of Japanese customers. Perhaps because of that, a Japanese female crew member was there from the pickup, which made me feel at ease. I participated at the end of June, and since it was quite windy, I followed the advice of the Japanese female crew member and borrowed a wetsuit over my rash guard. As a result, the water temperature was comfortable, and I didn't feel too cold while on the boat.

By the way, it might be good to have a chamois towel (which you can use to wipe off most of the moisture and can be reused if you wring it out towards the sea) and a dry beach towel (to use as much as possible without getting wet, draping it over your back) with you. The air conditioning on the return bus is strong too...

初めて野生のイルカが群れをなして泳ぐところを見ることができました。ウミガメも海の中で、至近距離で見ることができ・・・感動。
ランチのハンバーガーも美味しかったです！

私が参加したグループは日本人のお客さんばかりでした。それもあってか？日本人女性のクルーがピックアップの時点からいてくださっていて、安心でした。
参加したのは6月末ですが、風が強かったこともあり、日本人女性クルーのアドバイスに従ってラッシュガードの上からさらにウェットスーツを借りて着ました。結果、海の水温もそれで心地よく、船上に上がっている時もあまり寒くありませんでした。
ちなみに、セームタオル一本（これで主な水分を拭き取る。海に向かって絞れればまた使えるので便利）と、乾いたビーチタオル（なるべく最後まで濡らさず背中にかけたりして使う）があると良いかもしれません。
帰りのバスも、冷房が強いですので・・・。

In the sea with the best transparency, I was able to encounter a pod of nearly 150 dolphins. The dolphins didn't just swim past us quickly; they circled around us multiple times.

They swam so close that I could clearly see their eyes, rather than just appearing small in the distance. On the contrary, I was filled with surprise and emotion, wondering if it was really okay for them to come so close.

The staff also provided strict instructions for safety, but at the same time, they kept the atmosphere lively on the boat, allowing us to have a truly enjoyable time.

最高の透明度の海の中で
１５０頭近いイルカの群れに出会うことが出来ました。イルカの群れはさっと目の前を通り過ぎるのではなく、私たちのそばを何度も回遊してくれました。

ずっと遠くのほうに小さく見えるのではなく、はっきりと、イルカの瞳を確認できるほど、近くを泳いでくれました。
反対に、こんなに近づいてしまっていいのだろうかと思うほどで、驚きと感動でいっぱいになりました。

スタッフの方も、安全のために
厳しい言葉でしっかりと指示を出してくださいました。一方で船の上ではとても盛り上げてくださり、本当に楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来ました。

Beautiful location and no crowds. We loved having kayaks and paddleboards to use leisurely.
It was better than we had expected.

In addition to fish, I was able to see sunken ships and airplanes on the seabed, which made me feel like I was exploring the ocean floor, and it was a lot of fun. I also encountered sea turtles and sharks. It's a shame I didn't get to see any whales! Unlike going into the sea, there's no need to change clothes, so it's easy to participate.

魚以外にも、海底に沈んだ船や飛行機を見ることができ、海底を探検してるような気分でとても楽しかったです。ウミガメやサメにも遭遇することができました。クジラには出会えず残念！海に入るのと違い、着替えたりしなくていいので気軽に参加できていいですね。

This activity allows you to enter the pool with dolphins and touch them directly. My 3-year-old was scared and needed to be held, but they were able to touch the dolphin and even give it a kiss on the cheek. My 5-year-old was totally fine with it. We planned to buy photos later, thinking that just the kids' pictures would be enough, but unexpectedly, Dad had a smile we had never seen before while kissing the dolphin, so we ended up buying the photo (laughs). After the dolphin pool, there is plenty of time to explore the park at a leisurely pace. The kids were really into the area where they could feed lettuce to the fish.

イルカと同じプールに入水して、イルカに直に触れられるアクティビティです。３歳の子は怖がってしまい、抱っこしながらでしたがイルカに触って、ほっぺにキスもできました。５歳の子は平気です。写真を後で購入するのですが、子供の写真だけで十分！と思っていたら、まさかのパパが見たことないくらいの笑顔でイルカとキスをしていたので、写真買ってしまいました（笑）イルカのプール後も十分時間があるので、園内ゆっくりみてまわれます。魚にレタスをあげられるコーナーに子供がハマっていました。

We participated as a couple. I convinced my wife, who can't swim, to challenge herself by entering the 5.2-meter pool with the paid option called Shark Trek, where you swim with sharks. However, unfortunately, the day we attended was Keiki Day, Hawaii's Children's Day, and many attractions were canceled, so we couldn't take on the challenge. The only thing we could participate in was an attraction where we could touch dolphins from outside the pool, which was included in our reservation. The park is small and has few attractions, so we just had lunch and took a nap at the food court. I wish the reservation page clearly indicated which attractions were available and which were not. It turned out to be a wasted and disappointing day in Hawaii.

夫婦で参加しました。泳げない妻を説得し、有料オプションのシャーク・トレックというサメの泳ぐ5.2ｍのプールへ入っていくことに挑戦しするための参加でした。しかし、最悪にも参加日がケイキ・デ―というハワイの子供の日で、色々なアトラクションが中止で挑戦することが出来ませんでした。唯一、予約に入っていたプールの外からイルカを触るアトラクションに参加できただけでした。パークとしては小さくアトラクションも少ないので、あとは、フードコートで昼食と昼寝しかしませんでした。予約ページの中にアトラクションは何が出来て、出来ないものは何かをはっきりと表示して欲しかった。ハワイでの無駄で悪い思い出となった1日でした。

I had a great time playing volleyball at the sandbar and seeing sea turtles! The snorkeling was a bit different from what I imagined, maybe because it rained the day before?! The staff member was very energetic and friendly, and she took a lot of wonderful photos for us, which was great! The hamburger we had on the boat was very delicious! There are various tours available, but I'm glad I chose this one!!

サンドバーでバレーボールをしたり、
ウミガメを見たり、とてもたのしかったです！
シュノーケルは、想像とはちょっと違いましたが、
、前日に雨が降ったからかな？！
スタッフのお姉さんはとてもパワフルで、親しみやすく、素敵な写真をたくさん撮っていただいたり、よかったです！
船の上で食べたハンバーガーがとてもおいしかったです！
色んなツアー？がありますが、こちらのツアーにしてよかったです！！

I had a great time. It was a good workout. There were so many activities that I never got bored. Also, the foreign staff member was really handsome and friendly. (laughs)

とっても楽しかったです。いい運動になりました(^^) 色んなのがあって飽きなかったです。あと、スタッフの外人の方がとってもイケメンで親切です。(笑)

Hawaii after 38 years!
Touching the cute dolphins and swimming while holding onto their bodies was the best healing experience!
It left a strong impression on me.
Next time, I want to swim with two dolphins!

38年ぶりのハワイ！
可愛いイルカに触れ合い、体に捕まり身を任せ泳いだのは
最高の癒しです！
とても印象に残りました。
次回は、2頭のイルカと泳ぎたいですね～

I tried snorkeling for the first time at a sandbar known as the "Angel Sea." I'm not a great swimmer, and I felt nervous when the staff said, "Just think of it as training!" But I put on the snorkel and set off. The corals and fish I saw for the first time were so beautiful... and just as I was getting used to it, it was over. I had a bit of anxiety, but wearing a life jacket helped me float, and the staff was watching over us, so I'm glad I participated.

天使の海と謳われるサンドバーでのシュノーケリングに初挑戦しました
私はあまり泳げないし、スタッフの 訓練だと思ってください！の声に緊張してシュノーケルをつけていざ出発
初めて見る珊瑚と魚達…わー綺麗…と慣れてきた頃にお終いでした
少し不安もありましたが、ライフジャケットを着用すれば浮くしスタッフが見守ってくれてるので参加して良かったです
