Oahu
I participated this time with my 9-year-old daughter and my 60-year-old grandmother. Given the age difference, I had some concerns, but it was an activity that everyone, from children to the elderly, could participate in with peace of mind. Seeing the two of them, 51 years apart in age, having the same experience and feeling the same emotions made me realize just how amazing dolphins and sea turtles are! My daughter wrote in her winter vacation diary, "I received power from the Earth."
I truly believe that words cannot convey this experience, and I hope everyone can feel the emotions directly.
It was wonderful to spend the end of the year at Dolphin University. I will definitely re-enroll.
今回9才の娘、60才のおばあちゃんと参加させていただきました。年齢のこともあり多少の不安もありましたが子供からお年寄りまで安心して参加できるアクティビティでした。その差51才の二人が同じ体験をして同じように感動してる姿をみてイルカってウミガメってすごい!!!って改めて感じました。娘は「地球からパワーもらった」と冬休みの絵日記に書いていました。
是非是非、皆さんにも言葉では伝わらないかと思います、じかに感動を感じてほしいと思います。
一年の締めくくりをイルカ大学で過ごせてとてもよかったです。必ず再入学します。
I couldn't see any whales. The boat was large and I didn't feel much rocking. The top deck was very pleasant. However, there were only a few chairs, so it's best to be at the top from the start. If you don't see any whales, you can get a free ticket for another ride, but there was a long line. There were many foreigners, but there were also Japanese announcements, so there were no particular issues.
クジラは見れませんでした。
船は大きくあまり揺れも感じませんでした。
一番上のデッキはとても気持ち良かったです。
でも、椅子が少ししかないので、最初から一番上にいたほうがベストです。
見れなかった場合、再度の無料乗船券をもらえますが、長蛇の列でした。外国人の方が多かったですが、日本語の案内もあり特に問題ありませんでしたよ。
Thank you very much for participating in our cruise. We are very sorry that you were unable to observe whales this time. If there is another opportunity, we would love for you to come back and try again. All of our staff are looking forward to your visit.

I participated in whale watching on New Year's Day. Since it was my first time in Hawaii, it felt great to look at Waikiki from the sea and enjoy the refreshing breeze. Although I didn't see any spectacular whale jumps, I was able to spot spouts and their backs. I hope to see more next time.
元旦にホェールウォチングを・・・と思い参加しました。
ハワイは初めてなので、海からワイキキを眺めたり、爽やかな風でとても気持ちが良かったです。
鯨の豪快なジャンピングなどは見られませんでしたが、潮吹きや背中などは確認できました。
次回は、期待したいです。
Depending on the weather and other conditions, if you're lucky, you can see a scene resembling a sandbar floating in the sea.
When we went, we were fortunate enough to see such a sight.
We were also able to see a few sea turtles.
I think it's worth participating if you go there.
天候等の条件によりますが、運が良いと海に浮かぶ砂洲のような光景が見られます。
私達が行った時は、運良くそのような光景が見られました。
また、ウミガメも数匹見ることができました。
現地に行ったら、参加する価値はあると思います。
The beauty of the sandbar was stunning, and encountering a sea turtle was moving. The snorkeling experience and the relaxed pace of the itinerary felt very much like Hawaii, and it was physically easy as well.
This experience is highly dependent on the weather, so I think the evaluation may change accordingly, but it would be excellent if it's sunny.
In any case, I liked that the itinerary was slow-paced.
The ocean is relatively cold during New Year's, so I think it's better to bring long sleeves.
サンドバーの美しさをみて、ウミガメに遭遇して感動、シュノーケル体験とゆったりとした時間の行程なのでハワイらしいですし、体力的にも楽です。
この体験は天候に非常に左右されるので、それによって評価は変わるかと思いますが、晴れたら非常によいでしょう。
とにかく行程がゆっくりしていたので、気に入りました。
お正月の海は比較的冷たいですので、長袖は持参された方がいいと思います。
Every time I go to Hawaii, I participate with my children. We go by rental car, and if you bring this voucher, you won't have to wait in line during busy times.
毎回ハワイにいくたび、子供たちと参加してます。
レンタカーで行ってますが、

I was able to see it up close. I was surprised. It's a great memory.

It seems that whales were spotted nearby, so you are truly lucky!
For wildlife protection, we are prohibited from approaching whales within 100 yards. However, if a whale happens to come close to us, that is a different situation.
Perhaps the whale came over to say hello!
Thank you for your comment.

The 30 minutes went by in a flash, but I was so happy playing with the dolphins. I want to go again!!
30分はあっという間だったけどイルカと戯れて幸せでした。またいきたい!!
We left before sunrise, and I was worried because it was cloudy and drizzling in Waikiki, but by the time we reached West Oahu, it was completely clear and sunny.
On the way, we stopped by Leonard's, famous for its malasadas. They give you just one, but one is not enough!!! I found myself wishing for some coffee too. I wanted to eat more, but there was a line inside, so it was a shame we couldn't stay long.
On the boat, the cheerful staff were waiting for us and really livened up the class.
When it was finally time to meet the dolphins, everyone was super excited! We were lucky that day and encountered a pod of over 50 dolphins.
What we saw underwater was just a small part of the pod, and the time was shorter than I expected, but hearing the dolphins' calls right after entering the water was very impressive and moving. However, even though it's always summer in Hawaii, winter is still winter. The water temperature is quite cold, so I recommend renting a wetsuit. Since it's paid, if you have your own, it might be a good idea to bring it!
Since we wear life jackets when entering the water, we couldn't dive, so the image was more of watching the dolphins swim right in front of us rather than swimming with them as the catchphrase suggests. Still, it was my first time seeing so many dolphins underwater, so it was a wonderful experience.
If you have an underwater camera, I highly recommend taking videos instead of photos!!!
朝は日が昇る前に出発しワイキキ内は曇って雨もちらついていたので心配しましたが、西オアフに行くまでにはすっかり晴れて晴天になっていました。
道中にはマラサダで有名なレナーズに立ち寄り、ひとつだけマラサダをくれるんだけど、ひとつじゃ物足りない!!!さらにコーヒーがあればなぁ~と欲張りな気持ちになってしまいました。もっと食べたいけど店内には行列があるし、そんなに長い時間立ち寄れなかったのが残念です。
ボートの上では陽気なスタッフの皆さんが待ち構えていて、授業を盛り上げてくれます。
いよいよイルカ先生とのご対面という時には、みんな大興奮!当日はラッキーだったようで50頭以上のイルカ先生の群れと出会うことができました。
海の中で見られたのは群れのほんの一部で、思っていたよりも短い時間でしたが、エントリー直後からイルカ先生の鳴き声が聞こえたのがとても印象的で、感動しました。
ただ、常夏のハワイといっても、冬は冬。水温はしっかり冷たいのでウェットスーツをレンタルすることをお勧めします。有料なので、自前で持っている人は持ってくといいかもしれません!
ライフガードを着けて海に入るので、海中に潜ることができないのでキャッチコピー通りのイルカ先生と一緒に泳ぐというイメージより、目の前で泳ぐイルカ先生を見ているイメージの方が強かったですが、あんなにたくさんのイルカを海中で見たのは初めてだったのでとてもよい経験となりました。
海中カメラをお持ちの方は、写真ではなくムービーで撮ることを声を大きくしてお勧めします!!!
The staff were very good. The boat was clean, and the snacks were delicious, so I was satisfied. However, it was a bit cold for snorkeling, so I would like to participate again during a warmer season! The scenery was truly wonderful when the sun was shining!!!
スタッフの方たちがとてもよかったです。
船もきれいで、軽食もおいしく満足でした。
ただシュノーケルするのには少し寒い時期だったので、
もう少し暖かい時期にまた参加したいです!!
太陽があたると本当に素晴らしい景色でした!!!
This was such an amazing activity to do in Hawaii!! This was my second trip in a matter of 8 months to hawaii and I was advised by friends to try this out and I was not disappointed!! The arrays of sea life and colours of the ocean and fish are so diverse! I loved it and would even go on it again when I go back to Hawaii in 2O12.
I participated in the morning plan on December 26. I had joined two years ago, but I could only see something that looked like a whale in the distance, so since it was my last day before returning home, I thought I would enjoy the view from the sea one last time. However...!! From around Diamond Head, whales appeared here and there, jumping one after another!! Everyone was cheering and overjoyed. I saw the very jumps that are often featured in photos on the website right in front of me. I had my digital camera ready and was randomly pressing the shutter, and to my surprise, quite a few good shots came out!! I think whether or not you see whales is a matter of luck, but I never expected such a big show!! It was so much fun. The two hours flew by. The transportation was also very efficient, and I didn't have any issues. You can enjoy the scenery alone, but seeing the whales jump is incredibly exciting!! I definitely want to participate again when I go in the winter.
12月26日午前プランに参加しました。2年前にも参加したのですが、遠くにクジラらしき物が見えた程度だったので、帰国する日だったし、最後に海から景色を楽しもうと思って参加しました。ところが・・・!!ダイヤモンドヘッド沖辺りからクジラがあっちにもこっちにも現れ・・・次々にジャンプするではありませんか!!もう、みんな歓声をあげて大喜びです。よく、ホームページ等に載っている写真そのもののジャンプが目の前で見られました。持っていたデジカメを見当をつけて構え、適当にシャッターを押していたのですが、結構写っていてこれもびっくり!!クジラが現れるかどうかは運しだいだと思うのですが、こんなにも大サービスしてくれるとは!!とっても楽しかったです。あっという間の2時間でした。
送迎もてきぱきしていて困ったことはありませんでした。景色だけでも楽しめますが、やはりクジラのジャンプを見られると大興奮です!!また冬に行ったときには絶対参加したいと思っています。
This is the Star of Honolulu.
Thank you for your comments that convey the excitement of our guests so well!
Whether or not you see whales really depends on luck.
You were truly lucky!
We look forward to your next boarding.

This was an excellent half-day experience. We went out on a large, spacious catamaran with a crew of 4, and in the course of 2 guided snorkling drops we had multiple sightings of dolphin, saw a giant turtle moving along the sea floor and another (or possibly the same one) pausing to breathe at the surface, and encountered countless colorful (and near-fearless) fish. We saw coral, too, with coral arches (our guide dived down and swam under one) and a "coral garden" area.
After the second dive we were given hot BBQ sandwiches and mixed fruit, with a choice of chicken or pork sandwhiches. There was plenty of room for everyone to find a spot in the sun (when it shone), and cabin shelter when we felt chilly.
The crew were friendly, safety-conscious, and proactive in large and small ways. Everyone was encouraged to wear a lifejacket for the first snorkel drop, and there were 2 crew members in the water with us, one as a guide and one to stay with the first-timers (he brought a surfboar
What a fun start to our Hawaii trip! We were not just met, but truly welcomed to Hawaii, and were given beautiful, rich, leis to wear. Our greeter accompanied us to the baggage collection area (which is a 5-minute walk) and made sure we knew our transportation options for getting to our hotel.
Despite it being the rainy season, it didn't rain on the day we participated. However, the temperature wasn't very high, so it was a bit chilly. I can't really recommend this time of year, especially since it often rains. That said, going out on a yacht was completely different from enjoying the sea at the beach, and it felt great. I also tried snorkeling for the first time in my life, and the staff were very kind, which made me feel safe participating. I was able to see many beautiful fish near the coral.
雨季にも関わらず、私たちが参加した日は雨は降りませんでした^^
でも、気温はあまり高くなかったので、肌寒かったです^^;
特に雨のよく降る今の時期はあまりお勧めできません。
とはいえ、ヨットで沖に出るのは、ビーチで海を楽しむのとは全然違って、気持ちよかったです☆
そして、人生初のシュノーケリングに挑戦しましたが、スタッフの方もとっても親切で、安心して参加できました♪
サンゴの近くのきれいなお魚もたくさん見ることができました^^
Recently, I participated with my family. The sandbar had seawater up to about my knees, and it looked very different from the photos. I think it would be better to check the tide schedules to avoid disappointment. Since December is the rainy season, it rained on the day of our visit, and the wind was strong; when we got out of the water, my daughter's lips were purple and trembling. Since there are no changing facilities, I recommend bringing warm clothes. Unfortunately, we only had a little time for snorkeling, and I wished we could have taken it a bit slower. We did see the sea turtles properly! The staff were all kind and friendly. Next time, I want to check the timing and participate again.
先日、家族と参加させていただきました。サンドバーは膝下位まで海水があり、写真の感じとは全然ちがいます。潮の満ち引きをよく調べて行った方ががっかり感はなくてすむと思います。12月は雨期ということもあり当日は雨が降ったり、風も強く海から上がった時は娘の唇は紫色で震えていました。着替えをできないので暖かい服を持って行かれた方がいいと思います。シュノーケルの時間がほんの少ししかなくて残念でした。もうちょっとゆっくりしたかったです。うみがめはちゃんと見られましたよ!スタッフの方々はみなさん親切でいい感じでした。今度は時期を調べて、もう一度参加したいです。
We came to Hawaii for our honeymoon and participated in this tour. As a result, we had the amazing experience of swimming with many dolphins, fish, and sea turtles. We were picked up at the hotel at 6:10 AM. Although it was a bit early, it allowed us to schedule activities in the afternoon, making the most of our day.
The tour guide, who introduced himself as the student council president, was very friendly and fun, building excitement for the tour that was about to begin. For breakfast, we had malasadas at Leonard's. The freshly made, warm malasadas were chewy and incredibly delicious. It seems that it's a famous shop with long lines, but since it's located a bit away from Waikiki, I was happy it was included in the tour.
Upon arriving at the harbor, we met the captain and other crew members. After receiving various explanations, we offered a prayer song to the sea. It was cold that day, so I rented a wetsuit for $10. We went to the point where the dolphins were, and finally entered the water. We were lucky to encounter over 50 dolphins, which was the most seen in the past month. The excitement of seeing wild dolphins is something I can't express in my poor writing, so I definitely encourage everyone to experience it for themselves.
After that, we snorkeled, feeding fish bread and swimming with sea turtles. Although the waves were high that day and we didn't participate, it seems that paddle surfing and sea kayaking are also enjoyable options. After finishing our water activities, we had lunch on the boat. The captain made delicious cheeseburgers. After lunch, there was a Hawaiian live performance with the crew's ukulele, which was very moving.
We finished with everyone dancing the hula! It was just the best. The crew members were also very friendly and wonderful people. I definitely want to participate again the next time I come to Hawaii.
新婚旅行でハワイに来ましたので参加させていただきました。
結果、たくさんのイルカや魚そしてウミガメと泳ぐことが出来て最高な経験ができました。
朝6時10分にホテルにてピックアップ。
朝が少し早いですけど午後に予定も入れられるので1日を有意義に使えます。
生徒会長と名乗る添乗員さんがとても気さくで楽しい方で、これから始まるツアーのワクワク感をあおられます。
朝ごはんにレナーズでマラサダをいただきます。出来たての温かいマラサダはモチモチでとても美味しかったです。有名店で行列も出来るらしいのですが、ワイキキから少し離れたところにあり、なかなか行く機会がないのでツアーに組み込まれているとうれしいです。
港に到着し船長さんや他のクルーの方々と合流します。
いろいろと説明を受け、海に祈りの歌をささげます。
この日は寒かったので10ドルでウエットスーツをレンタルしました。
イルカが居るポイントまで行き、いよいよ海に入ります。
ここ1ヶ月で一番たくさん居たとのことで50頭以上のイルカに遭うことができました。これは本当にラッキーでした。
野生のイルカを見れた感動は私のつたない文章では伝えることは出来ないので是非、実際体験していただきたいです。
その後はシュノーケリングで魚にパンをあげたり、ウミガメと一緒に泳いだりしました。
この日は波が高く私達は行いませんでしたが、パドルサーフィンやシーカヤックも楽しめるそうです。
これで海でのアクティビティは終了で、後は船上でランチをいただきます。ランチは船長さん手作りのチーズバーガーでとても美味しかったです。ランチの後はクルーの方のウクレレでのハワイアンライブもあり、とても感動的でした。
最後はみんなでフラダンスを踊りフィニッシュ!
もう最高です。
クルーの皆さんもとても気さくで楽しく素晴らしい方々でした。
次にハワイに来たときも是非参加したいと思います。
It was windy, but I brought a windbreaker, so I was able to enjoy sailing without feeling cold.
The staff inside were very pleasant, bringing drinks and checking in on us, which made for a great experience.
Along the way, we were able to see dolphins and sea turtles up close, and the hour went by in no time.
風が強かったのですが、ウインドブレイカーを持参したので寒くなることもなくセイリングを楽しめました。
中のスタッフはとても感じが良く、飲みのものを運んでくれたり、声をかけてくれたりして気分良く過ごせました。
途中、イルカや海亀も間近に見ることができ、あっという間の一時間でした。
Dolphin University and Junior High School were recommended for those who want to focus on dolphins, but since I have a weak stomach, I was worried about the restroom situation. I decided on the university because the boat has a restroom. In the end, I didn't use it, but just knowing it was there made me feel more comfortable.
At 6:10 AM, we gathered in the dim light and drizzle. It was too early, and I wasn't feeling great, so I started with some anxiety. Along the way, we stopped at Leonard's to try the popular malasadas. I was unsure if I could eat, but the student council president, our guide, quickly noticed and brought me a takeout bag from the shop.
Upon arriving at the harbor, the rain had stopped, and we were treated to clear skies and a rainbow. Dolphins are said to be attracted to fun people. We learned tips on how to play with the dolphins, and then it was time to head into the sea! Although I can't swim well, those who struggle with swimming went first into the water. The muscular crew members entered the sea ahead of us, which was reassuring. As long as I held onto the crew's float, I had no worries about swimming. Plus, being close to the crew meant I could quickly get updates on the dolphins' location, which was a lucky bonus.
Now, about the dolphins—I was amazed. I never expected to swim so close to them. There were so many! According to our guide, this was the largest group that had come in the past few months. Lucky me! It truly felt like a dream experience. As we returned to the boat and moved to the next snorkeling spot, dolphins swam alongside us, showing off their spins. Dolphins are really adorable.
During snorkeling, I swam with turtles. The waves were high that day, so it was suggested to skip paddleboarding and kayaking, allowing us to enjoy snorkeling for a long time. When I returned to the boat, there were unlimited warm tea and snacks available. I actually got seasick while snorkeling. Just as I was thinking, "Oh no, this might be bad," the student council president noticed and chatted with me so much that I forgot I was feeling sick.
On the way back on the boat, we enjoyed a ukulele live performance and hula dancing from the crew. Listening to the ukulele while taking in the magnificent scenery was wonderful. The singing was so good that I was captivated. As for the hula dancing, before going, I thought, "I'm not into dancing..."
イルカ大学と中学、イルカをメインにしたい方は中学がオススメってくちこみだったのですが、腸が弱い私はトイレが心配。
大学の船にはトイレが付いているってんで、大学に決めました。
結局トイレは利用しなかったのですが、あると無いじゃ気持ちが違うんで。
早朝6:10、まだ薄暗く霧雨の中の集合。
朝早すぎて体調もいまいち。不安な中のスタートでした。
途中レナーズで人気のマラサダを食べます。
私は食べれる気がせずに、どうしよう…と思っていたら
ガイドの生徒会長さんがすぐに気づいてくれて、お店の方にお持ち帰りの袋をもらってきてくれました。
港へ到着。
降っていた雨もいつのまにか止んで、晴天&虹のおまけつきです。
イルカは楽しい人に寄ってくるそうです。
そんなイルカと楽しく遊ぶコツなどを教えてもらい、いざ海へ!
私はかなづちなのですが、かなづちの人は先頭で海へ。
マッチョなクルーの方が先に海へ入って待っていてくれるので安心です。
クルーの方の浮き輪につかまっていれば泳ぎに不安があっても問題ありません。
しかもクルーの側にいた方がイルカの位置をすぐに教えてもらえてラッキーです。
で、肝心のイルカですが
びっくりしました。
こんなに近くで一緒に泳げるとは思っていませんでした。
しかも凄いたくさん!
ガイドさん曰く、この数ヶ月で一番たくさんの群れが来てくれたそうです。
ラッキー!
本当に夢のような体験です。
船にあがり、次のシュノーケルスポットへ移動するときにも
イルカが船と並走し、スピンを見せてくれたり、
イルカって本当に可愛いですね。
シュノーケルでは亀と一緒に泳ぎました。
この日は波が高く、パドルボードとカヤックはやめたほうがいいかも…ということで長い時間シュノーケルが楽しめました。
疲れて船に戻ると、暖かいお茶とスナック菓子が食べ放題?でした。
実はシュノーケルで酔ってしまった私。
あ、やばいかも?と思っていたところ、これまた生徒会長さんが気づいてくれて、
たくさん話かけてくれたので、いつの間にか酔っていることを忘れてました。
帰りの船の中では
クルーの方のウクレレライブとフラダンス。
壮大な景色を見ながら聴くウクレレ。
歌も上手すぎて聞き惚れます。
フラダンスも、行く前は「俺はダンスとか一
Since it was my first time in Hawaii, I wanted to have an experience I had never had before, so I signed up. However, I wasn't sure how I would be able to interact with the dolphins, so I chose a beginner's course. I was thrilled to be able to kiss and shake hands with the dolphins! It was such an emotional experience to see dolphins up close like that. We just had to stand, so it was fine for both adults and children, even those who can't swim. However, since the dolphins move according to the trainer's instructions, it might be a bit unsatisfying for those who want to interact more. Next time, I would like to join a course where I can hold onto their dorsal fins and swim with them.
初めてのハワイだったので、今までしたことのない経験をしたいと思って申し込みました。ただ、どのようにイルカと触れ合えるのかわからなかったので初心者向けのコースにしました。イルカとキスしたり、握手したりすることができて感激!こんなに間近でイルカを見る機会はないのでとても感動しました。私たちは立っていれば良いので、大人でも子供でも泳げない人でも大丈夫です。ただ、イルカはトレーナーの指示で動くのでもっと触れ合いたい人にはちょっと物足りないかもしれません。次回は背びれにつかまって泳げるコースに参加したいと思いました。
The sea was beautiful, and I got to see sea turtles, it was the best!
海も綺麗だし、海カメも見れたし最高でした!
It was disappointing that it was cloudy and cold, but it was a place I definitely wanted to visit in Hawaii, so I was very happy. When we arrived at the port, they handed out malasadas, which was unexpected and made me happy. The water level was about calf-deep, and it was a beautiful sea. Since it was our honeymoon, I wanted to order a DVD, but I didn't because of the cloudy weather, which was a shame. If I can go again, I definitely want to go on a sunny day! The sea turtles were around the boat the whole time and were so cute! Also, they were selling underwater cameras for $20 on the boat, but I could have bought one for a bit cheaper if I had purchased it in advance, so that was a mistake. The Japanese staff lady was funny and cute!
曇り空で寒かったのが残念でしたが、ハワイに行ったら絶対に行きたい場所だったのでとてもよかったです。
港に着いたときにマサラダが配られて、思いがけなかったので嬉しかったです。
水位はふくらはぎ下くらいで、きれいな海でした。
ハネムーンだったのでDVDも頼みたかったけど、曇り空が残念だったので頼みませんでした。
次回行けたら、ぜひ晴れた日に行きたいです!
ウミガメがずっと船の周りにいてくれてとれもかわいかった!
あと、船の上で水中カメラを20ドルで売ってくれましたが、前もって買っておけばもう少し安く買えたので、失敗でした。
日本人スタッフのお姉さんが面白くて、かわいかったです♪
The hotel sent a Wet 'n' Wild bus to pick us up, and they provided explanations and showed a video on the bus. It was December, but the weather was really nice, and we had a great time. In the shade, it was a bit chilly after getting out of the water, but under the sun, I was fine in just my swimsuit. The lockers were convenient since you could open and close them multiple times. Since it was a weekday, there were fewer people, and there was no waiting time, so I was able to go down the water slides many times, which made me very satisfied!
They said it was the size of three Tokyo Domes, but it didn't feel that big. When I went, the attractions next to each other had the same staff, and the two attractions were alternating every hour. Depending on the type, you have to carry large inner tubes up the stairs, so I thought it might be a bit tiring for groups of girls. I only went on the Shaka once because it was scary, but I think people who like thrill rides would find it very exciting and fun.
I had lunch while watching people surfing in front of the Da Flowrider. For $10, there were burgers and sandwiches that were quite filling, so it felt like we played hard and ate well.
ホテルにウェット&ワイルドのバスが迎えに来てくれ、バスの中で説明や、説明ビデオを見せてくれます。
12月でしたが、天気が本当に良くてとても楽しかったです。
日陰だと、水から上がった後は肌寒いですが、太陽の下にいると水着だけでも平気でした。
ロッカーも何度も開け閉めできるので便利です。
平日だったので人も少なく、待ち時間もなかったので、ウォータースライダーを何度もすべることができて、大満足です♪
東京ドーム3個分の広さと書かれていたけど、そんなに広いと感じるほどではありません。
私が行った時は、隣同士のアトラクションが同じスタッフで、2つのアトラクションが時間ごとに交互に動いていていました。
種類によっては、大きな浮き輪を階段で上まで運ばなくてはならないので、女の子同士だとちょっと疲れちゃうかなと思いました。
シャカは、怖くて1回しか行きませんでしたが絶叫系が好きな人はとてもスリルがあって楽しいと思います。
ダ・フローライダーの前の広場で、波乗りをしている人たちを見ながらご飯を食べました。
10ドルでハンバーガーやサンドイッチなどボリュームもあり、しっかり遊んでしっかり食べて・・・といった感じです。
This is my fifth time in Hawaii, but it was my first time participating in this tour! I had no idea such a wonderful place existed! Since I tend to get seasick, I was a bit anxious, but I took some motion sickness medication beforehand and it was totally fine! I was worried about whether the turtles would show up for turtle watching, but I ended up seeing four turtles! The guide was also Japanese, and he was very clear and entertaining☆ The snacks were more than just light bites; they were substantial! Unlimited refills made it the best☆ And the sandbar! It was so beautiful that I couldn't help but scream (laughs). Eating and taking photos in such a lovely place was amazing and became a treasure for me! I was moved to see a wild turtle swimming around the boat at the sandbar! It seemed friendly and didn't leave the area around the boat! It was so cute! I also had a DVD made for $45, which was a slideshow with background music that felt like something you’d see at a wedding, and I’m very satisfied with it!
However, I think it gets cold in winter with the water being chilly and the wind being strong, so a jacket is definitely necessary! But when the sun is out, it feels warm☆ This is a tour I want to go on every time I visit Hawaii! I want to participate again next year!
HAWAIIは5回目ですが初めて参加しました!
こんな素敵な場所があったなんて知りませんでした!
船酔いするタイプなので、少し不安でしたが、いちよ酔い止めを飲んでおいたら全然大丈夫でした!
タートルウォッチングも亀さん達が出てきてくれるか心配でしたがなんと4匹もの亀さんとご対面できました!
ガイドさんも日本人の方で、わかりやすくとても面白かったです☆
軽食も軽食どころか、ガッツリ!
おかわり自由で最高でした☆
そしてなんといってもサンドバー!
あまりにも美しくて悲鳴をあげてしまいました(笑)
あんな素敵な場所でのご飯や、写真撮影は最高で、宝物になりました!
サンドバーに浮かぶ船の周りを泳いでる一匹の野生の亀さんがいて感動しました!
人懐っこいらしく船の周りからはなれませんでした!とってもカワイイかったです!
45$でDVDも作っていただきました!結婚式で流れそうなBGM有りのスライドショーのDVDでとても満足しています!
ただ冬の時期に行くと水が冷たかったり風が強く寒いと思うので上着は絶対必要です!
でも、太陽が出ていると温かいです☆
HAWAIIに行ったら毎回行きたいツアーです!
また来年も参加したいです!
At the first spot, we couldn't see many dolphins, but when we moved to the second spot and got into the water, a surprising large group swam right in front of us. The cheeseburger we had on the boat was also delicious.
始めのポイントではイルカをあまり見ることが出来なかったが二回目のポイントに移動してもらい海に入るとびっくりするくらい大群が目の前を泳いでくれた。 船の上で食べたチーズバーガーもおいしかったです
It was the best Hawaii, where I got to meet a lot of dolphins and also turtles!
イルカにいっぱいあえて、カメにもあえて最高のハワイでした!!
This was my second time participating, and I was very happy that the same crew members remembered me from the last time!
Although I couldn't swim very close to the dolphins this time, I really enjoyed watching the crew's hula dance.
It was a bit disappointing that the pineapple didn't come out...
I would love to join this tour again!
2回目の参加でしたが前回と同じクルーの方が覚えていてくれたことがとてもうれしかったです!
今回はイルカとあまり近くで泳げませんでしたがクルーの方のフラも見れたりとても楽しめました★
パイナップルがでてこなかったのはちょっと残念でしたが・・・
また参加したいツアーです!
Six months ago, I participated in this tour with my daughter and was deeply moved, so this time I joined with friends. Last time, I wrote about the port's restroom and my concerns about snorkeling, but this time, six months later, everything has been perfectly improved, and I was moved by that as well.
If I could make one more request, I think it would be safer and more reassuring to be able to borrow water shoes during snorkeling.
This time, the tide was low, and I was able to walk in water up to my shins. The scenery of Jurassic Park is breathtaking no matter how many times I see it.
半年前に娘とこのツアーに参加して感動をして、今度は友達と参加しました。
前回、港のトイレのことや、シュノーケリングの不安を書き込みしましたが、半年後の今回は、どれも完璧に改善されていて、それにも感動しました。
もう一つお願いできれば、シュノーケリングのときにウォーターシューズも貸し出してもらえるとより安全に安心してシュノーケリングが出来ると思います。
今回は潮もよく引いていて、すねのところまでの水かさでウォーキングできました。
ジェラシックパークの風景も何度見ても感動です。
We participated with our family on November 24, 2011.
It was very convenient as the tour bus picked us up at the hotel and took us to the location. The journey took just under an hour.
After entering, we borrowed a locker key and children's life jackets at the counter. There are large and small lockers, but since we had kids and a lot of luggage, even the larger locker was barely enough. The children's life jackets can be borrowed for free. We have a 5-year-old and a 1-year-old, and it was great that there were proper sizes for babies as well.
Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy with strong winds, making it a chilly day, so the pool water felt cold, and we couldn't stay in for long. I think we would have enjoyed it more on a hot day.
Since we have kids, we mainly played in the children's pool. There were fun play equipment and slides suitable for small children, making it a great recommendation for families.
The thrilling slides were very impressive, and they all looked fun, but since we had kids, we only tried one in turns. It was incredibly thrilling and enjoyable.
Next time we come, I hope to challenge all the attractions on a day with better weather.
I wanted to play more, but we ran out of time and couldn't visit all the places we wanted to. Since we had small children, we couldn't move around too actively, but I think adults would have enough time to explore everything.
On the way back, the bus came to pick us up in front of the exit and took us back to the hotel.
2011年11月24日に家族で参加しました。
朝ホテルにツアーバスが迎えに来てくれて現地まで連れて行ってくれるので、大変便利でした。
片道1時間弱くらいでした。
入場後、カウンターでロッカーの鍵と子供用のライフジャケットを借りました。ロッカーは、大・小ありますが、私たちは子供連れで荷物が多かったので、大きい方のロッカーでもギリギリでした。
子供用のライフジャケットは無料で借りられます。
5歳と1歳の子供ですが、ちゃんと赤ちゃん用のもあって良かったです。
当日は生憎の曇り空で、風も強く肌寒い日だったので、プールの水も冷たく感じられ、長く入っていられないのが残念でした。
暑い日なら、もっと楽しめたと思います。
うちは子供がいるので、子供用プールをメインに遊びました。小さい子供でも楽しく遊べそうな遊具や滑り台もあって、ファミリーにもお勧めです。
絶叫スライダー系がすごく充実していて、楽しそうなものばかりでしたが、うちは子供がいるので交代で1つだけトライしました。ものすごくスリル満点で面白かったです。
次回来た時は、もっと天候が良い日にすべてのアトラクションに挑戦できたらいいなぁと思います。
もっと色々遊びたかったのですが、時間が足りなくなってしまい、行きたいところを全部まわりきれませんでした。
私たちは小さい子供がいたので、あまりアクティブに動き回れなかったのですが、大人だけなら十分回れると思います。
帰りも出口前にバスが来てくれて、ホテルまで送っていただけます。
