All Reviews for For 4 Year Olds

I participated in the encounter with my 6-year-old child. Since it was January, I was concerned about the water temperature and chose the 11 AM session, but even then, the water felt a bit cold.

At first, the dolphins were not in a good mood, and every time a few people in the group kissed or shook hands, there were breaks and dolphin changes. However, despite the time running over, everyone was able to kiss and shake hands properly.

There was a 2-year-old child in the same group who was scared and cried the whole time. The dolphin's sounds and splashes seemed to frighten him, and the staff worked hard to calm him down, but unfortunately, he ended up crying until the end and couldn't touch the dolphin. I think it would be better for very timid children to be informed beforehand that dolphins are not scary before participating.

Sea Life Park is a very beautiful aquarium, and all the signs are written in Japanese, so it's a comfortable place for families with children to enjoy. Additionally, you can enjoy various wonderful views on the round-trip tour bus that you can't see in Waikiki.

６歳の子供と一緒にエンカウンターに参加しました。
1月だったので、水温が気になり11時からの回にしましたが、
それでも少し水温は冷たく感じられました。

はじめはイルカの機嫌が悪く、グループの数人がキスをしたり握手をしたりするたびに、
休憩が入ったりイルカの交代があったりしましたが、
時間が押してもきちんと全員キスをしたり握手をしたりできました。

同じグループの中に怖くてずっと泣いている2歳くらいのお子さんがいましたが、
イルカは鳴き声やバタ足が怖いそうで、スタッフの方が一生懸命泣きやまそうとしていましたが、
残念ながら結局最後まで泣きやまず、触る事ができなかったようです。
あまり怖がりのお子様には、事前にイルカが怖くないことを説明してあげてから参加した方が良いと思います。

シーライフパークはとても綺麗な水族館で、標識もすべて日本語で書いてあるので、子供連れには安心して楽しめます。
また往復のツアーバスの中で、ワイキキでは見られないような素敵な景色もいろいろと楽しめます。

When making the reservation, I read some experiences and saw comments saying "we didn't see any whales," which made me a bit hesitant. However, since we come to Hawaii every year and my husband's mother was visiting Hawaii for the first time, we thought it would be nice to participate and enjoy the view of the Waikiki hotels from a large boat. We didn't see any whales, but we were able to spend a relaxing time.

予約する時、体験談を読んで
「くじら見えなかった」と言うコメントがあり少し迷いましたが私たちは、毎年ハワイに来ているけど、主人の母は初めてハワイに来たので、大きな船に乗って海の上からワイキキのホテルを眺めるのもいいかな・・・という気持ちで参加しました。
くじらは見えなかったけど、ゆっくりと時間を過ごせました

We were blessed with clear skies, and we were able to see the tail fin clearly. We also got to see baby whales, so we thoroughly enjoyed the whale watching experience. The guide was American, but it seemed he had studied Japanese well, as he spoke clearly and explained the location and direction of the whales, which was very helpful.

晴天に恵まれ、尾びれもしっかりみれました。
子供のクジラもみれたので、しっかりホエールウォッチを堪能できました。ガイドの方もアメリカ人の方でしたが、しっかり日本語を勉強されているようで、聞き取りやすい発音で、クジラがみつかった位置や方位など説明してくださり、助かりました。

The timing was just right, and I was able to see whales perfectly! It was moving! I definitely recommend it.

時期がちょうどいいこともあり、クジラばっちり見れました☆感動しました☆ぜひおすすめです。

I participated in the monitor tour this time.

At pickup, an old bus arrived, which made me a bit anxious, but there were no problems at all! The driver even entertained us with singing while driving (laughs).

Upon arrival, we boarded the boat. First up was sea turtle watching. We were lucky to see many that day. Then we arrived at the sandbar. Unfortunately, it was only knee-deep, but we could stand in the middle of the ocean, and the view was beautiful!

Since I went in January, there was a perfect photo opportunity when the sun came out! At this time, we could practice snorkeling, but it was cold, so I quickly returned to the boat.

For lunch, we had homemade hamburgers!! They were incredibly delicious☆ During this time, the crew sang while playing the guitar, and we enjoyed a relaxing time.

Next, we moved to the coral area! Finally, it was time for snorkeling. It was cold, but once I got in, I was amazed by the coral and fish!

Before I knew it, the fun time had passed.

This tour seems to have started in the last few years, and since it was a small group, the staff were entertaining, which made it really great☆

Mahalo♪

今回モニターツアーで参加しました。

ピックアップ時にはちょっと古いバスが来て不安でしたが、
全然問題なし！運転手さんが運転しながら歌の披露とかしてくれました(笑)

到着して船に乗り込みます。まずは海亀ウォッチング。
この日はたくさん現れてくれました。
そしてサンドバーへ到着。残念ながらひざ下くらいでしたけど、海の真ん中に立てて、眺めもキレイでした！

私が行ったのは1月だったので、太陽が見えた時にシャッターチャンス！！という感じで写真を撮ってくれました。
この時にシュノーケルの練習ができますが、寒くてすぐに船に戻りました。

そして昼は手作りハンバーガー！！
めっちゃおいしくいただきました☆
このときにクルーの人がギターを片手に歌ってくれたりして、ゆっくりとした時間を過ごします。

そして、珊瑚エリアへ移動！
いよいよシュノーケル。寒いけど、入ってしまえば後は珊瑚と魚に感動！

あっという間に楽しい時間が過ぎました。

このツアーはここ数年からはじめたらしく、少人数だし、スタッフさんも面白くて、本当に良かったです☆

マハロ♪

I thought it might be too early to see whales, but I was able to catch a glimpse of a whale's back. It wasn't an impressive whale watching experience, but I feel lucky just to have seen it. Seeing a lot of fish at the Aloha Tower harbor was an unexpected stroke of luck.

クジラを見るにはまだ時期が早かったかと諦めムードの時にクジラの背中を見ることができました。迫力のあるクジラ観賞でなく、なんとも地味~なものでしたが、見れただけラッキーと納得しています。アロハタワーの港でたくさんの魚を見れたのは想定外のラッキーなものでした。

I saw it~☆ After about 30 to 40 minutes on the boat, we spotted a whale in the distance☆ But then, for a while, we didn't see anything... Just as the announcement of "We're heading back to port" came on, a moment of disappointment washed over us, and then suddenly, about two whales appeared really close by~~ They raised their tails and splashed down!! It was amazing!! I was so moved that I forgot to take pictures...

見ちゃいました~☆
乗って３~４０分で少し遠目ですが、クジラが見えた☆
でも、それからしばらく何も見えず。。。
「帰港します」
のアナウンスが流れて。。。
ちょっとがっかり感が漂った瞬間に、
すごく近くで２頭くらいかな～～
尾ひれを上げてザブーン!!
スゴかったです!!感動!!
見とれてしまって写真を撮るのを忘れてしまいました。。。

Touching and kissing the dolphins was fun. I wish there was a family discount. I would like to participate again.

イルカとのタッチやキス。楽しかったです。家族割引的なものがあればなぁ。また参加したいです。

Well, the elderly couple said they enjoyed it.

まぁ~楽しめたと年寄り夫婦は言ってました。

I used the service on January 8. We were able to see the tails of whales about three or four times off the coast of Honolulu. The meals were satisfactory and matched the price. On the way back on the boat, there were also activities like lei-making and hula dance classes, which everyone enjoyed. I think it's a tour that is definitely worth participating in.

１月８日に利用しました。
ホノルル沖で、３、４回クジラの尻尾だけでしたが見ることができました。食事も価格相応の内容で満足いくものでした。船の帰りには、レイ作り、フラダンス教室等も開催され、皆さん楽しんでいました。
十分に参加する価値があるツアーだと思います。

I applied with some hesitation, but I was truly moved to see whales! The kids were also impressed, and it became a great winter vacation memory. I've been to Hawaii quite a few times, but I had never participated in something like this, so I especially recommend it for families with children. The food was enjoyable too! I would love to participate again.

半信半疑で申し込みましたが、本当にクジラを見れて感動！子供達もインパクトがあり、いい冬休みの思い出になりました。ハワイはかなり行ってますが、こういうものに参加したことがなかったので、子供がいる人には特におすすめです。ご飯も楽しめました！又、参加したいですね。

It was a fun pool despite everything that happened.

いろいろありましたが、楽しいプールでした。

I participated with my 1 year and 9-month-old child.

Having joined other whale watching tours in the past, I can share my thoughts for comparison:

If you really want to see whales, you should go on a small, fast, and maneuverable boat.

I recommend a small group tour that stops the boat if dolphins are spotted and allows you to dive into the sea.

However, for those with children or those who may feel uneasy about small boats, this large boat tour might be the right choice.

It might be better to join with the mindset of hoping to see whales while enjoying a lunch cruise. The food is quite delicious, and there are events on board, so I think it's a tour that won't disappoint.

１歳９ヶ月の子供を連れての参加です。

過去、他にもホエールウォッチングに参加していますので、
比べた感想を言いますと、


クジラを本当に見たいのなら、速度の速い、小回りのきく
小さい船でいくべきです。

クジラのほかにもイルカが見えたら船を止め、
海にもぐらせてくれるような、
そんな少人数のツアーがお勧めです。


しかし子連れや、船酔いなど、小型の船が不安な人にとっては
この大型船のツアーは正解かと思います。


ランチクルーズしたついでに、クジラが見えればいいかな、
という考え方で参加したほうがいいかもしれません。
でも料理はなかなか美味しいですし、船内のイベントもありますし、はずれのないツアーかと思います。

It's just a short distance from the hotel to the boat, so we easily participated as a family. What surprised me was encountering whales just a stone's throw away from Waikiki. I was amazed that whales were swimming so close. I felt the depth and endless charm of Hawaii.

　ホテルから船までもスグですし、かなり気軽に家族で参加しました。
　驚いたのはワイキキ目と鼻の先でクジラに出会えたことです。こんなに近い所にクジラが泳いでるなんてビックリ。ハワイの懐の深さや尽きない魅力を感じました。

We participated in an early morning plan with a 7:30 pickup for a three-generation family trip. This was our fourth stay in Oahu, but it was our first time visiting the heavenly sea sandbar, and everyone was filled with excitement.

The beauty of Kaneohe Bay was astonishing; we could see coral and tropical fish right at the harbor where the boats were docked. Once we boarded the boat and headed out to sea, we spotted sea turtles (honu) here and there. The water at the sandbar was about knee-deep, but the location was truly as wonderful as advertised. During snorkeling, we encountered a school of fish swimming among the corals just three seconds after diving in—absolutely amazing.

Surrounded by a rich ecosystem, beautiful sea, friendly and cheerful staff, and picturesque views in every direction, it became a memorable experience for us. Our whole family was very satisfied.

I don't think there’s much worry about seasickness due to the boat's structure and the calm sea, and the activities were enjoyable for everyone, from kids to grandma. If you have the chance, I highly recommend it.

　３世代家族旅行の折に7:30ﾋﾟｯｸｱｯﾌﾟの早朝ﾌﾟﾗﾝに参加です。家族みんなでのオアフ滞在は4度目だったのですが、天国の海サンドバーへは初めてで一同ワクワク感たっぷりで臨みました。
　驚くのはカネオヘ湾の綺麗な事、船の係留されている港でいきなり珊瑚や熱帯魚が見られ。いざ船に乗って沖に出ると、あちらこちらでウミガメ(ホヌ)を確認。サンドバーは膝下位の水位でしたが、看板に偽りなしの素晴らしいロケーション。その後のシュノーケルでは、潜って3秒で珊瑚の間を泳ぐ魚の群れに遭遇で言う事なし。
　豊かな生態系と美しい海、親切で陽気なスタッフ、どこを向いても絵になる素敵な景色に囲まれ、心に残る体験となりました。我が家のみんな大満足です。
　船の構造と穏やかな海で船酔いの心配もそうないと思いますし、体力的にも子どもからバアちゃんまで各々に合わせて楽しめる内容で問題なし。機会あれば、ぜひお勧めです。

Swimming with dolphins was a dream come true!! It was truly enjoyable. I participated alone this time, but I was genuinely healed by the adorable dolphins!!

憧れのドルフィンスイム！！
本当に楽しかったです。
今回は一人参加（一人旅）だったのですが、可愛いイルカ達に心から癒されました！！

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。

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。

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、
こちらのバウチャーをもっていけば、
混雑時に並ばなくてすみます。

I touched it. It was fun. It's a good memory.

触れました。楽しかったです。いい思い出です。

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

近くで見れました。びっくりしました。いい思い出です。

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！！

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 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.

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 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。

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
